Edward POV

"You're late." Bella's manager, Garrett scolded us as we got out of the car that had picked us up at our hotel.

"Sorry, we got caught up." Bella blushed and looked down, scraping the rubble under us with her foot.

Garrett raised an eyebrow and looked back and forth between us. I could have sworn he murmured something under his breath that sounded like "love birds' but I couldn't be sure. He didn't question us though.

"Well, Edward you need to be on stage in a half hour so let's go. Everyone is waiting for you." Garrett started to push me towards the back of the stage.

"Okay." I said and leaned down to kiss Bella before I left.

"See you on stage." Bella smiled as Garrett towed her into another direction.

As soon as I walked backstage, I was bombarded with make-up artists and stylists. After an extremely quick sound check (due to my tardiness. Hey, I can't help it that whenever I'm with Bella time passes quickly.) I was ready to go.

I sat in a chair that was given to me and waited for my cue.

I quickly ran through my head all of the songs that I was planning to sing in my head and smiled to myself. I had a few new songs that I was really anxious to share with Bella.

For some reason, we always seemed to understand each other better when we sang rather than talking to one another.

Emmett says it is because we are abnormal.

"Okay Mr. Cullen, you are due on stage in approximately five minutes." A stage director came over to me, placing his hand on my shoulder.

"Thank you." I responded, getting a little nervous about what Bella would think of my new songs that I was going to sing tonight.

After some thought we decided that we would sing them to each other (and about 4,000 strangers) in concert.

We were about half way through our tour and today after the concert, Bella had insisted on a surprise dinner, seeing as it was my birthday. She had refused to tell me her plans but I could tell that I was starting to make her crack.

"Okay, Edward it is show time." The same stage director came back to me.

"Okay." I breathed, my heart started to jump out of my chest.

Although this was a tour for Bella and I, I was more so of the opener. This was originally going to be Bella's tour but she had Garrett agree for me to become the opener, although I appeared on stage a little more often.

I was led to a device that would lift me up from under to floor onto the stage.

The stage manager told me good luck as I positioned myself on the lift. I focused on my breathing, as the roar of the crowd grew louder.

After a minute I started to ascend upwards. As the floor started to move, I heard a voice from behind me.

"Edward!" Bella's voice called.

I turned and smiled, my worries disappeared when my eyes landed on Bella.

"Good luck!" She smiled and then ducked behind the door.

Seeing her calmed my nerves a little bit but I was still nervous as I appeared on stage, looking up into the huge audience.

The music started behind me and I brought the microphone to my mouth.

"This time, This place

Misused, Mistakes

Too long, Too late

Who was I to make you wait

Just one chance

Just one breath

Just in case there's just one left

'Cause you know,

you know, you know."

"That I love you

I have loved you all along

And I miss you

Been far away for far too long

I keep dreaming you'll be with me

and you'll never go

Stop breathing if

I don't see you anymore."

"On my knees, I'll ask

Last chance for one last dance

'Cause with you, I'd withstand

All of hell to hold your hand

I'd give it all

I'd give for us

Give anything but I won't give up

'Cause you know,

you know, you know."

"That I love you

I have loved you all along

And I miss you

Been far away for far too long

I keep dreaming you'll be with me

and you'll never go

Stop breathing if

I don't see you anymore."

"So far away

Been far away for far too long

So far away

Been far away for far too long

But you know, you know, you know."

"I wanted

I wanted you to stay

'Cause I needed

I need to hear you say

That I love you

I have loved you all along

And I forgive you

For being away for far too long

So keep breathing

'Cause I'm not leaving you anymore

Believe it

Hold on to me and

Never let me go."

The crowd cheered loudly and I suddenly became more confident in what I was singing.

"Hello London! I am so happy to be able to be here with you guys tonight. I've had a lot of fun so far on this tour and I am glad I have gotten to stop here twice to sing with you guys.

"In just a little while Bella with be coming out but for now, I have a few more songs for you in store."

I signaled for the band to start and then next song's rhythm slowed down.

"It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.

She puts on her make-up and brushes her long brown hair.

And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"

And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

"We go to a party and everyone turns to see

This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.

And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"

And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

"I feel wonderful because I see

The love light in your eyes.

And the wonder of it all

Is that you just don't realize how much I love you."

"It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,

So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.

And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,

I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.

Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

The crowd cheered loudly and I suddenly became more confident in what I was singing.

The next song's music flowed through the crowd and I knew this next song would be a hit. This was personally my favorite song and I really hoped that Bella would like it.

"I could stay awake just to hear you breathing

Watch you smile while you are sleeping

While you're far away and dreaming

I could spend my life in this sweet surrender

I could stay lost in this moment forever

Where every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure."

"Don't want to close my eyes

I don't want to fall asleep

Cause I'd miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing

Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream will never do

I'd still miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing."

"Lying close to you feeling your heart beating

And I'm wondering what you're dreaming

Wondering if it's me you're seeing

Then I kiss your eyes

And thank God we're together

I just want to stay with you in this moment forever

Forever and ever."

"I don't want to close my eyes

I don't want to fall asleep

Cause I'd miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing

Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream will never do

I'd still miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing."

"I don't want to miss one smile

I don't want to miss one kiss

I just want to be with you

Right here with you, just like this

I just want to hold you close

Feel your heart so close to mine

And just stay here in this moment

For all the rest of time Yeah yeah yeah."

"I don't want to close my eyes

I don't want to fall asleep

Cause I'd miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing

Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream will never do

I'd still miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing."

"I Don't want to close my eyes

I don't want to fall asleep

Cause I'd miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing

Cause even when I dream of you

The sweetest dream will never do

I'd still miss you babe

And I don't want to miss a thing."

"Don't want to close my eyes

I don't want to fall asleep

And I don't want to miss a thing."

After about two more songs that the crowd was already familiar with I going to sing a song that basically described my life and how grateful I was to have Bella by my side. This song was a piece that I was particularly proud of.

The crowd was still roaring from my pervious song as I started this new song.

"I set out on a narrow way many years ago

Hoping I would find true love along the broken road

But I got lost a time or two

Wiped my brow and kept pushing through

I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you."

"Every long lost dream led me to where you are

Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars

Pointing me on my way into your loving arms

This much I know is true

That God blessed the broken road

That led me straight to you."

"I think about the years I spent just passing through

I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you

But you just smile and take my hand

You've been there you understand

It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true."

"Every long lost dream led me to where you are

Others who broke my heart they were like Northern stars

Pointing me on my way into your loving arms

This much I know is true

That God blessed the broken road

That led me straight to you."

"Now I'm just rolling home

Into my lover's arms

This much I know is true

That God blessed the broken road

That led me straight to you."

"That God blessed the broken road

That led me straight to you."

I finished and smiled to the crowd who was standing and cheering for me, the loudest applause I had had the whole night.

"Thank you." I spoke and then walked off stage.

As soon as I got off stage, Bella jumped into my arms. I leaned into her, smelling her strawberry scented hair.

"Edward!" Bella choked, looking up at me with tears streaming down her face.

"Bella, you're going to ruin your make-up." I laughed, kissing her forehead.

"Those songs were… beautiful." She leaned up and kissed me, hard. "Mine pale in comparison."

"I doubt that." I smiled.

"I have never thought it possible, but my love for you right now has just reached a whole new level." She looked up at me.

"It's like you just read my mind." I kissed her. A huge weight felt like it had been taken off of my shoulders when she had said that she liked my songs.

"Ahem, Ms. Swan, you are due on stage." A staff member looked slightly embarrassed that he had interrupted Bella and me.

"Okay." Bella turned back to me and kissed me once more before following the worker.

I stood behind the stage in a corner where I got a good view of Bella walking onto the stage.

After a few minutes she appeared.

"Hi everyone! I am so happy to be here tonight with all of you! I hope you are as excited as I am for the new songs that I am going to sing here tonight." Bella looked up at the crowd and smiled.

It seemed so effortless for Bella up on the stage.

"Alright let's get this show on the road!" Bella turned to the band and then back to the crowd as the music started.

"There's somethin' about the way

The street looks when it's just rained

There's a glow off the pavement

You walk me to the car

And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there

In the middle of the parking lot

Yeah

Oh yeah

We're drivin' down the road

I wonder if you know

I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now

But you're just so cool

Run your hands through your hair

Absentmindedly makin' me want you

And I don't know how it gets better than this

You take my hand and drag me head first

Fearless

And I don't know why but with you I'd dance

In a storm in my best dress

Fearless

So baby drive slow

'Til we run out of road in this one horse town

I wanna stay right here in this passenger seat

You put your eyes on me

In this moment now capture it, remember it

[ Lyrics from: .com/lyrics/t/taylor_ ]

Cause I don't know how it gets better than this

You take my hand and drag me head first

Fearless

And I don't know why but with you I'd dance

In a storm in my best dress

Fearless

Oh Oh

Well you stood there with me in the doorway

My hands shake

I'm not usually this way but

You pull me in and I'm a little more brave

It's a first kiss,

It's flawless,

Really something,

It's fearless

Oh yeah

Cause I don't know how it gets better than this

You take my hand and drag me head first

Fearless

And I don't know why but with you I'd dance

In a storm in my best dress

Fearless

Cause I don't know how it gets better than this

You take my hand and drag me head first

Fearless

And I don't know why but with you I'd dance

In a storm in my best dress

Fearless

Oh, oh yeah."

I watched as Bella looked at me in the corner of her eye. She winked at me.

I smiled as she looked up at the screaming crowd.

"Thank you! That was a recently written piece and I am really glad you guys enjoyed the song as much as I loved sharing it with all of you! I think we are going to slow things down a little bit! Thank you!"

"You and I must make a pact

We must bring salvation back

Where there is love

I'll be there

I'll reach out my hand to you

I'll have faith in all you do

Just call my name

And I'll be there

I'll be there to comfort you

Build my world of dreams around you

I'm so glad I found you yeah

I'll be there with a love so strong

I'll be your strength

You know I'll keep holding on

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter

Togetherness, well it's all I'm after

Just call my name and

I'll be there

I'll be there to protect you

With an unselfish love that respects you

Just call my name

And I'll be there

I'll be there to comfort you

Build my world of dreams around you

You know I'm so glad that I found you

I'll be there with a love so strong

I'll be your strength

You know I'll keep holding on

See, if you should ever find someone new

I know she better be good to you

'Cause if she doesn't then

I'll be there

Don't you know baby yeah yeah

I'll be there

I'll be there

Just call my name and

I'll be there

I'll be there, baby

You know I'll be there

Just call my name and

I'll be there

Just look over your shoulder

Just call my name and

I'll be there."

Bella sang a few more of her well known songs and then before I knew it, it was time for me to come back onto the stage with her.

"I have a special treat for you all. Don't you think it would be great to have Edward come out again with all of you?" Bella asked the crowd as I got ready to get on stage.

The crowd yelled in response.

"Okay, introducing, again, my boyfriend Edward Cullen!" Bella smiled into the microphone and then turned to face me with a big smile on her face that somehow made her even more beautiful.

Her hair was curled with loosed waves falling over her shoulders and she was wearing a blood red long-sleeved dress that hugged her petite figure perfectly.

She wrapped her arm around me and we walked to the center of the stage.

"Are you ready for the song we are going to sing?" Bella asked the crowd.

"You know I personally like this song Bella because it is so full of life and it makes everyone get out of their seats." I looked down into her chocolate brown eyes.

"I agree." Bella smiled.

The music then started in the back ground and I pulled away from Bella and danced over to a side of the stage.

A/N: Bella is Bold and Edward is Italicized . Both is Underlined!"

"I got chills, they're multiplyin', and I'm losin' control

Cause the power you're supplyin', it's electrifyin'!" I turned towards Bella, slowly walking over to her as she sang.

"You better shape up, cause I need a man!" Bella marched over to the side of the stage and then turned back to me.

"and my heart is set on you

You better shape up, you better understand,

to my heart I must be true." Bella then started walking back towards me.

"Nothing left, nothing left for me to do!" I smiled as we got closer to each other.

"You're the one that I want

(you are the one I want), ooh ooh ooh, honey."

We both sang to each other as Bella reached where I was standing. She put her hand on my chest and pushed me backwards as we continued to sing.

"The one that I want (you are the one I want),

ooh ooh ooh, honey."

I laid my hand over hers as we continued to one side of the stage.

"The one that I want (you are the one I want),

ooh ooh ooh, honey

The one I need (the one I need),

oh yes indeed (yes indeed!)!"

"If you're filled with affection,

You're too shy to convey

Meditate my direction, feel your way!"

Bella shimmied next to me and then started walking away from me.

"I better shape up,

cause you need a man!" I grabbed her hand and then she turned back to face me.

"I need a man,

Who can keep me satisfied." Bella smiled and then twirled away from me.

"I better shape up, if I'm gonna prove!" I started following her as we walked to the center of the stage.

"You better prove, that my fate is justified ."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes I'm sure down deep inside." We both got to the center of the stage and faced each other.

"You're the one that I want

(you are the one I want), ooh ooh ooh, honey."

Bella put her hand on my chest and wagged her finger at me.

"The one that I want (you are the one I want),

ooh ooh ooh, honey

The one that I want (you are the one I want),

ooh ooh ooh, honey."

I smiled at Bella and twirled her around so that she was now in my arms.

"The one I need (the one I need),

oh yes indeed (yes indeed)."

We both finished with each other staring into one another's eyes.

Bella smiled up at me and I quickly kissed her on the forehead and ran backstage.

"Alright, if you liked that, I have a few more songs in store for you guys." Bella turned back to the crowd was I got back to where I was standing before.

"Come on, I want to hear you guys!" Bella raised her hands in the air to the crowd. "Let's make Sparks Fly!" Bella said this as the music started behind her again.

"The way you move is like a full on rainstorm

And I'm a house of cards

You say my name for the first time, baby, and I

Fall in love in an empty bar

And you stood there in front of me just

Close enough to touch

Close enough to hope you couldn't see

What I was thinking of

Drop everything now

Meet me in the pouring rain

Kiss me on the sidewalk

Take away the pain

Cause I see,

sparks fly whenever you smile

Get me with those green eyes, baby

As the lights go down

Something that'll haunt me when you're not around

Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

So reach out open handed

And lead me out to that floor

Well I don't need more paper lanterns

Take me down, baby bring on the movie star

Cause my heart is beating fast

And you are beautiful

I could wait patiently but I really wish you would

Drop everything now

Meet me in the pouring rain

Kiss me on the sidewalk

Take away the pain

Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

Get me with those green eyes, baby

As the lights go down

Something that'll haunt me when you're not around

Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

I run my fingers through your hair

And watch the lights go out

Just keep your beautiful eyes on me

Gonna strike this match tonight

Lead me up the staircase

Won't you whisper soft and slow

I'd love to hate it

But you make it like a fireworks show

Drop everything now

Meet me in the pouring rain

Kiss me on the sidewalk

Take away the pain

Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

Get me with those green eyes, baby

As the lights go down

Something that'll haunt me when you're not around

Cause I see, sparks fly whenever you smile

Sparks fly, baby smile, sparks fly."

Bella sang two more songs after that amazing new song she had written before she told the crowd that her next song would be the last one of the night.

"This song is about the day when I fell in love. It describes everything that happened to me that day so I hope you like it."

"Today was a fairytale

You were the prince

I used to be a damsel in distress

You took me by the hand

And you picked me up at six

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

I wore a dress

You wore a dark grey t-shirt

You told me I was pretty when I looked like a mess

Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

You've got a smile that takes me to another planet

Every move you make everything you say is right

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

All that I can say is it's getting so much clearer

Nothing made sense until the time I saw your face

Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around

Yeah yeah

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around

I can feel my heart

It's beating in my chest

Did you feel it?

I can't put this down

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

But can you feel this magic in the air?

It must have been the way you kissed me

Fell in love when I saw you standing there

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale

It must have been the way

Today was a fairytale."

"Thank you to everyone! Have a good night!" Bella yelled into the microphone and then ran back stage into my arms.

"So what day was the day you fell in love with me?" I whispered into her ear as she leaned into me.

"I'll tell you later… tonight, when you get your surprise." Bella pecked me on the lips.

"You won't tell me?" I asked disappointed.

"Nope, sorry." Bella smiled and kissed me again. "Happy Birthday, again." She smiled at me.

I smiled at her and brought her lips to mine once more.
