Bella's POV
The bell rang and I jumped out of my seat. I zoomed to my car so I can get a head start on preparing for tonight. On my way to the car I was stopped by Mike. Mike still is in love with me. Mike will always be in love with me.
"Bella!" he called out
"Yea?" I replied, I tried to sound as neutral as possible so he wouldn't get his hopes up
"Are you going to that new club tonight?"
"Which one?" I asked
Oh great now he is going to watch me sing
"It's in Port Angeles and I think it's called Club Freedom or something like that" he said smiling
"Oh that one"
"Well I was thinking if you would like to come with the group tonight"
"I'm sorry, Mike but tonight I'm mega busy"
"Oh ok" he said walking away
I zoomed home to get ready. When I got home I took a quick shower. After I got out I blow-dried my hair When that was done I picked out my outfit for the night. I chose a pair of dark jeans with a black three-quarter shirt with stud buttons. After I got dressed I went into my bathroom to straighten the remaining pieces. After that I did my makeup which basically meant glossing my lips and putting on eye-liner and mascara.
When I was done I topped off my out-fit with some school-girl heels and some jewelry. I looked in the mirror and I was amazed. I couldn't believe that I, Isabella Swan looked good for once. I grabbed my coat and my bag. I went down the stairs excited.
As I drove I wondered what would Edward think of my singing. Would he be proud? Would he be disappointed? I promised Charlie and Renee that I would have someone tape my performance since they couldn't make it. As I got closer, my mixed emotions kicked in. This was my time to shine.
Edward's POV
I couldn't believe that I gave in to go to this stupid club. Why? I obviously was in no mood to party and yet I was going to do this.
Getting ready for some strange reason took me a while. I put on a black button-up shirt and a pair of dark jeans. I don't know why I'm taking so long, because I'm not trying to impress anyone. I only want to look nice for Bella, but since we are over it's no use.
When I got downstairs everyone was pretty much ready. Jasper and Emmett like me were in button-up shirts with dark jeans while Alice and Rosalie wore shirts and jeans. Carlisle and Esme came to look at us.
"Have fun you guys" said Esme smiling, she was happy that I finally was going out.
"Control yourselves and have fun" said Carlisle who was like Esme, excited that I'm going out
"Trust me we will" said Alice smiling flashing her teeth
We all got in the car and Alice wanted to drive. She blasted the music and everyone was in a good enough mood to sing.
"Oh great, singing such joy" I thought, this possibly couldn't get worse. If I felt like leaving I'd just run home.
All of a sudden Alice hit the brakes and Rosalie, Emmett and I flew forward.
"ALICE WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!" I screamed, I was in a bad enough mood.
"Sorry, I got out of control, poor girl, I hope I didn't traumatize her" said Alice knowing she was wrong
"You almost hit someone?" asked Rosalie shocked "I thought you were responsible" she added
"Calm yourself, that's all I've got to say, calm yourself" said Emmett.
"She will, she will" murmured Jasper
Alice continued to drive as if nothing happened, I prayed that whoever she almost killed wasn't upset.
Bella's POV
Yet I'm still accident prone. I almost got smashed by a jeep full of people. That's all Charlie and Renee need to hear. I tried to brush off the fact that I almost got killed by a reckless teenager. I tried not to let that get to me so I continued to drive.
I had to get at the club early. I got there and went back-stage with the band to discuss what music we would be playing. The owner, Doug Coolton was in his mid-twenties. He was attractive, but I wasn't interested. He had blue eyes and dirty blond spiked hair. He was pretty average.
"Ok Bella Star, tonight sing something by other artists to get your audience interested, then if they love you, you can sing your own songs" said Doug, he was excited to promote the club and make this a "hit spot".
"Ok, Doug I've got a couple of songs" I said trying to impress him
Louis Colton (Doug's brother) came to me. Louis like his brother, had blue eyes and dirty-blond spiked hair. Louis was the DJ and the guy who would blast the music after I sing.
"Bella, right?" said Louis, "After you sing, I'll put on some music to bring up the crowd. Ok?" said Louis in a "professional" voice.
"No problem" I replied back.
I went to talk to the band. The band consisted of two guys and a girl. The two guys were Brent and Dirk. They were both tall and skinny. Dirk played the drums, he had black shaggy hair. He was pale and yet his blue eyes stuck out. Brent was like Dirk pale, but he had brown hair with brown eyes. Candace was the girl and she played the keyboard. She was a bit taller than me, but she was gorgeous. She had rosy cheeks and hazel eyes. She had light-brown hair that was curly.
"So what songs do you plan on singing tonight?" asked Candace in her small voice
"Umm, Doug said to do songs by other artists to see how the audience reacted" I murmured back
"Oh ok, so what songs?"
"I was planning on starting with 'When It All Falls Apart' by The Veronicas, and then for the second song I think I'd like to do 'Goodbye to You' by Michelle Branch. As for the third I was thinking 'Heavily Broken' by the Veronicas"
"Hmmm nice song choice, I'll tell the band what to prepare then"
Edward's POV
We entered the club, and it was dark. There was roundtables and the group took a seat at one in the middle to the side. I wanted to sit towards the back just in-case, but NO, we get stuck in the middle.
The club didn't look too bad. The walls were a reddish color and the floor was wood. There was a disco-ball in the center along with a bar. The speaker finally spoke.
"Give it up for our musical talent tonight!" yelled the man as excited as he was. The crowd clapped, I saw many people from Forks and as I read their minds I only heard "Why are the Cullens here?"
Then came out the singer. No, it couldn't be, it couldn't possibly be. That figure, those lips, those eyes. Was that Bella? Was that my Bella?
Bella's POV
I entered and I saw him. No I can't do this, not with him here. I took a big breath and tried to pretend that he wasn't there. It was no use, I'd have to face the music knowing that he would be there.
