The Deimon Commander From Hell: (*sitting, reading "Villain's Monthly" while drinking coffee*) I wonder where BandGeek is… She's usually here by now.

I don't own Twilight. HAPPY WICKED LATE TWILIGHT DAY, EVERYBODY!!!

Oh, and I don't own the song used. It's called "Help Me" and its by the Alkeline Trio (I probably spelled that wrong, but whatever. I don't care anymore. (*sigh*)

Edward skipped a couple of pages and selected one at random. "This one said it was a songfic, whatever that is. It's called 'Help Me', by MightyMightySockChild."
Esme silenced the room as Carlisle looked on, wondering if inviting both species was such a good idea.
"It'll be fine, Carlisle," Edward said, staring blankly at the keyboard.
Jasper looked at his little brother. The waves of nervousness pelted him like snowballs.
"I'm fine, Jasper," Edward growled, just loud enough so that a vampire could hear.
"I never said you weren't," Jasper replied and shot darts of calm at his fellow vegetarian.
Edward made a face at his brother and continued to stare at the keyboard.
"Just read," Sam sighed once the room was quiet.
"Here goes nothing…" Edward thought and began.
Bella stared up at her love with curious brown eyes. "What's wrong?"
The two stood in the forest behind Bella's house. Rain dripped gently off of the trees, making a gentle "plip, plip, plip" noise. Birds chirped lazily from the trees and occasionally, a squirrel would dart from tree to tree.
Edward stood against a remarkably thick hemlock and his eyes haunted Bella's mind. He looked positively miserable. His broad shoulders were hunched and his hair looked like it hadn't been combed in several days.
"What's wrong, Edward?" she asked again, this time with more determination.
He sighed deeply.
She forced his face to reflect hers. "Look at me."
He raised his topaz eyes to hers, misery and longing swimming in his irises.
Here you find me in between
Heaven and Hell my dear
Where nothing's what it seems
It's just as well I fear
I'm giving you the creeps
And a farewell kiss to go into the unknown
"Bells, I can't stay for much longer," he said. "I'm going back to Volterra soon, right after graduation, actually."
"Why?!" she exclaimed.
He sighed again and ran his hands through his hair, making it messier. "I'm stuck between Heaven and Hell. I'm a monster. I'm in love with a human. I could kill you, Bella." He looked away from her and continued, his voice almost at its breaking point. "I love you, but I can tell you're scared of something."
"Edward," she whimpered and threw her arms around him. "Don't leave me! Don't leave me anymore!"
He leaned down and kissed her fervently, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her tightly to him.
Saw you standing there
Outside the music hall
You come out for some air
Uncertain curtain call
And everyone just stared
When you took the stage that night
Something's not right
"When I saw you for the first time," she sobbed after she pulled away, "I remember thinking how something about you wasn't right. I remember how you glared at me in biology, like I had some kind of disease, and then I remember how you kept pushing me away so I wouldn't get hurt. I want you to know that I don't care anymore! I love you, and I want to be with you at every chance I get!"
Bella blushed because she knew this to be true, and Esme cooed, "Aw, that's so sweet!"
"Shut up!" Alice hissed, "I want to hear this!"
You're up there
Took the stairs
To the stars all alone
You left all the lights burning
But nobody's home
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along
Help me, Help me won't you?
Sing me, sing me one last song?
Help me, Help me, somebody help me
Save me from myself
"Bella," Edward sighed and held her closer, if that was possible. "I love you more than you know. I'm a monster, though," he said, repeating himself. "I'll hurt you, and that'll hurt me which will hurt my family, and…I've just got to go."
Here I find you in between
Heaven and Hell again
Where nothing's what it seems
It's just as well my friend
I'm giving me the creeps
And a farewell to arms, and legs, and heads, and hearts
"I know you're going through Hell with this whole thing, but I can't say goodbye to you. I'm going to miss you." Bella cried harder and gripped Edward's shirt so tightly it threatened to rip.
You're up there
Took the stairs
To the stars all alone
You left all the lights burning
But nobody's home
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along
Help me, Help me, won't you?
Sing me, sing me one last song?
Help me, Help me, somebody help me
Save me from myself, Take me from this Hell
"I need help," Edward confessed after a while. "I need you to help me." He looked down at her sobbing figure. "I need you to save me from myself."
Now they sing along
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
You're up there
Took the stairs
To the stars all alone
You left all the lights burning
But nobody's home
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long
Now they sing along
Help me, Help me won't you?
Sing me, sing me one last song?
Help me, Help me, somebody help me
Save me from myself
Help me, Help me won't you?
Sing me, sing me one last song?
Help me, Help me, somebody help me
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Save me from myself
Take me from this Hell
Bella nodded and hugged him tighter. "I love you," she told him one more time.
"Yeah. Love you too, Bells."
Carlisle smiled. "That wasn't so bad, was it, guys?"
Paul was blinking back tears and Jacob was sulking in the corner. Quil was beaming and Bella was blushing madly. Edward looked embarrassed and Jasper was laughing at his brother's humiliation.
"No, it was really sweet!" Alice cried and squealed. "Bella, you really love him!"
Bella slapped a hand to her forehead. "Alice… It's a story."
"So?" Alice asked gleefully. "The story's a perfect example of your true love for each other!" She jumped up and down in a hyper manner.
Jasper tried his best to send his most calming denpa waves to her, but they bounced off and hit everyone else.
"Jaaaasspeeeer? Dooo yooou miiind?" Carlisle asked dreamily. He had a giddy smile on his face and giggled frivolously.
Jasper, had he been able to, would have blushed and he shut down the steady stream of beams that he was emanating.
"Just find another one," Rose grouched while Emmett went into hysterics over the sappiness of the song-story.
