Congrats to Blondie for getting the correct lyric for the last chapter by Cobra Starship.

The next one is not said, but thought.

Now on with the show!

Chapter 5: I'm Falling for You

Edward's POV

"Alright" now's a better time to say it, I need to tell her how I feel! I can't contain what I feel for her in just a couple of words, but it's a start. "You know, not long ago I gave up hope, but you came along. You gave me something I could hold onto. Bella…"

Damnit, why can't I get it out, I just need her to know I'm always going to be there for her, SAY IT EDWARD! "I love you."

Silence. Breath. Edward.

She sighed, tears rolling down her cheeks. Oh my god, I made her cry. What do i do? Comfort her? THIS IS SO DAMN HARD! Did she reject me? How can you tell with females, they're so damn complicating!

"Edward, I like you a lot, but I think we should take it slow. I'm not ready to bring myself into another relationship too fast to have it taken away for me." I honestly thought my heart couldn't crush again.

"I understand" I let out the breath I'd been holding in this whole entire time. I'd rather hurt myself, then hurt her anymore then she already is.

I know what I have to do now, I'm going to prove myself to her, show her I'm not like the others, I will stay. I want her to know that without any doubt, and I won't stop until she does. I won't let her down.

The battle has been won, but war has just begun.

I don't know what to feel. He'd told me he loves me, and I couldn't get out those words. I know I feel something for him, but I feel like I'm going too fast. What if I pushed him away?

Well there's no point in thinking things. After he said he understood, It's about time we head into the cafeteria and eat. He can be my friend for now, but I don't want to rush things. My heart is still scarred from before.

We enter the cafeteria to see chairs, lined up, and everybody facing the auditorium. What is going on? I gasped. I completely forgot about the welcome back talent show we have every year. This is not good.

"Hey guys, over here" Rose waved us to two seats in the front. Should I warn Edward? They'll probably convince him to sing. We always had to go through this, the new member of our group would do something embarassing, I am certain Emmett is going to push him to do something.

Edward leaned in to my ear, "What's going on, Bella?"

"I forgot to mention about the we have a welcome back talent show, and they are probably convincing you to go up here...hehe sorry" I half smiled.

"Gee thanks" sarcasm, I wonder what he'll sing?

"Alright, well everybody settled and ready for our annual talent show back to school?" Nate announced. There were horrendous applauses and 'Yeah' all around, "Well first person is Lauren Mallory and her girls singing her annual…" he grimaced, "Hit me Baby one more time by Britney Spears, Round of applause everybody."

As Lauren began shaking her booty, and doing disgusting turns, she began singing the worst possible version I've heard from this song. She came closer to the front, and winked at Edward. A surge of anger rushed through me, it's not like he'd like her or anything. I mean, he just told me he loved me, why am I making such a big fuss over something like this?

Lauren ended her salute to Britney Spears, and it was time for another act. I could already feel the surge of energy as Emmett was pressuring Edward to… WHAT? Play piano? Now I really want to see this happening.

"You know we all had to do it, just do it, you'll do awesome man!" Emmett whined.

I nudged him, "Go on, I want to hear you play" smiling.

He looked my way and smiled, "If you want me to" and walked along to the stage, whispering to Nate something. After a few long minutes, a piano was on stage. I started getting so excited he'd play the piano!

Once he began, I instantly knew the song. Fall for you by Secondhand Serenade. (A/N: For more effect, i suggest you pop it in and imagine Edward in his uniform playing this on the piano, Its a nice imagination)

The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
It couldn't be that we have been this way before
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core..

He nearly caught my heart with that. The way he's singing it. Every note's perfection.

But hold your breath

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind

Or I won't live to see another day
I swear its true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find

He started playing the note's so smoothly and gently, making every note graceful. Playing with such devotion, and love, How did i not know that he could play the piano? I knew he was in advanced music, but i never bothered to ask what instrument. I think i should get to know him more.

This is not what I intended
I always swore to you that I would never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start

Oh, But hold your breath

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It's impossible to find

So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I'm yours to keep

And hold onto your words
'Cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight. When you're asleep

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find

He ended the piece with his own interpretation, and stopped playing. He stood up with his goofy grin looking right at me.

Rosalie was still shocked and open mouthed, "That was amazing"

Alice's eye's nearly popped out of her forehead.

Everybody gave him a standing ovation, Lauren and her gang nearly fell over, when he finished.

Edward came back. Alice was the first to talk, "Edward that was awesome! Who knew you could play piano!" He shrugged.

I reassured, "She's right you know, you did really well"

"Well if you say so" what is with him and his smiling? It's making me light-headed.

Nobody wanted to go after him, so we just stayed and talked until some more people decided to make fools of themselves, and the rest of the day went by in a breeze, we did samples in biology, I was thankful Edward was sitting next to me. But lots of girls approached him, and told him how great he was. Flirting with him, and I was right there to watch it, I wanted to barf with all these disgusting barbie look-a-likes batting their eyelashes and flinging their blonde hair everywhere like its a slingshot. After they left, we enjoyed ourselves, Edward took me to gym and since i was excused, I just watched him throw the basketball around.

Afterwards, Edward walked me back to my dorm, and we parted ways. I'm still thinking of how the day went. It was weird at times, but what are my feelings for him? I don't know anymore.

When she told me to go on stage there, I knew the exact song and how I was going to sing it. It was perfect for the moment, I wanted to impress her. She seemed shocked that I could play piano; I thought I mentioned it to her?

I got approached by some people, asked me out on a date, but I got rid of them. Lots of guys patted me on the back and called me a 'playa' for getting every girl in the school to acknowledge me, but the did i get the right one?

I was thinking of getting a beta, so if anyone is interested please tell me :) R&R

Max.
