Chapter 3:
Singing
EPOV
Weeks have gone by and Natasha won't even look at me. I want to date her, I need to date. I think only she can help my get over Bella.
"Edward, you don't want to be late and miss Natasha coming to school." Alice said. I heard the rest on my family laughed. I swear, they know something that I don't and I can't read there thoughts.
I ran down the stairs wearing all black. I wanted Natasha to think I was just like her.
When we arrived at school, my family waited in the car with me. We saw a black mustang convertible with what looked like blood dripping down the sides pull into the spot next to my car. Natasha drove fast and it was a pretty cool car.
I saw Natasha and her friends get out of the car. "I call driving home." The boy named Tyler said.
Natasha stopped and stared at him like he had grown another head. Alice started to laugh. I looked back at her. "Just watch." She said.
Tyler noticed that Natasha was staring at him. "What?" he asked.
"What fucking planet are you from?" she asked.
"Earth." He said confused.
"Oh, really, then you know that there is no way in hell you are driving MY car." She said.
"But I called it." He whined.
"You can call it what ever the hell you want, but you are NOT driving my car." She said.
"Natasha, why not?" he asked.
"Need I remind you what happened to my sliver mustang when I let you drive it?" she asked.
Tyler and a guy named Michael flinched at the memory. "I don't remember what happened." Tyler said.
Natasha sighed. "I let you drive it, you two got drunk, AND YOU RAN MY CAR INTO A TREE!" she yelled.
My family started to laugh so hard.
"It was totally Michael's fault." Tyler said.
"I don't give a shit whose fault it was!" Natasha yelled.
"I thought you loved this car." Tyler said backing away from Natasha.
"You're right. This car is so much hotter than the silver one. I love the color black and I got the blood drips for free." Natasha said.
Alice got out of the car and walked over to Natasha. "Natasha!" Alice called. Natasha turned around and smiled at Alice. Her smiled got wider as the rest of my family walked over to her. Her smile faded when she saw me.
NPOV (actually it is Bella's POV, but for now until Edward realizes that Natasha is Bella, it will say Natasha's POV)
"Natasha!" Alice called. I turned around and smiled at her. My smile grew when I saw the rest of the Cullens walk out. My smiled faded when Edward walked out of the car. Emmett walked over and gave me a hug. "Hello Bella. You know I think you look awesome in black." He whispered so only I could hear.
Rosalie hugged me and whispered as quietly as Emmett, "Bella, I missed you. I have to say this is an awesome plan. I didn't think you would come up with something like this." I smiled at her when she released me.
"Hello Natasha." Edward said. I turned my back on him and faced the rest on my friends and the Cullens. I was trying so hard not to laugh.
A car drove by and I began to sing along with the song that was on. It was This is How You Remind Me by Nickelback.
Never made it as a
wise man
I couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
Tired of
living like a blind man
I'm sick of sight without a sense of
feeling
And this is how you remind me
This is how you remind
me
Of what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I
really am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a
different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart
worth breaking
and I've been wrong, I've been down,
been to
the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream
"are we having fun yet?"
yeah, yeah, yeah, no,
no
yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no
it's not like you didn't know
that
I said I love you and I swear I still do
And it must have
been so bad
Cause living with me must have damn near killed
you
And this is how, you remind me
Of what I really am
This
is how, you remind me
Of what I really am
It's not like you
to say sorry
I was waiting on a different story
This time I'm
mistaken
for handing you a heart worth breaking
and I've been
wrong, I've been down,
been to the bottom of every bottle
these
five words in my head
scream "are we having fun yet?"
yet,
yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
yet, yet, yet, no,
no
yet, yet, yet, no, no
Never made it as a wise man
I
couldn't cut it as a poor man stealing
And this is how you remind
me
This is how you remind me
This is how you remind me
Of
what I really am
This is how you remind me
Of what I really
am
It's not like you to say sorry
I was waiting on a
different story
This time I'm mistaken
for handing you a heart
worth breaking
and I've been wrong, I've been down,
been to
the bottom of every bottle
these five words in my head
scream
"are we having fun yet?"
yet, yet
are we having fun
yet 3x
When the song was over, a crowd had formed around my group. I blushed when they told me to sing again. I didn't want to, but I was trapped until I did. The next song that came on the radio was The Real Me by Alexis.
Come on, come on,
come on
Oh oh
I trip, I fall, I catch myself
Even wishen
I was someone else
I'm never where I'm suppose to be
Oh
oh
I laugh out loud at stupid things
When I'm nervous I've
been known to sing
I'm not sure what I should believe
I don't
know who I am yet (am yet, am yet)
But I know who I wanna be
Chorus
Its an adventure (an adventure)
Finding
the real me (the real me)
I'm a reflection (a reflection)
Everything I see (the real me)
I cant wait to discover
I
know I'm going to love her
The real me
Uh uh uh uh uh uh
I stumble, I crumble when your near
And all of my
thoughts just disappear
I find myself in an awkward spot
I'm
losing all my sleep at night
Feel the question in my mind
Does
he love me
Does he love me not
I build up my confidence with
every experience
Its an adventure (an adventure)
Finding
the real me (the real me)
I'm a reflection (a reflection)
Everything I see (the real me)
I cant wait to discover
I
know I'm goin to love her
The real me
Uh uh uh uh ya ya ya ya
Uh uh uh uh ya ya ya ya
An adventure (an adventure)
Finding the real me (the real me)
I'm a reflection (a
reflection)
Everything I see (the real me)
I cant wait to
discover
I know I'm goin to love her
The real me...
Uh
...
Finally the teachers made us go into the school. On the way to the school, Tyler and I were listening to his Ipod and singing along with the song Land of Confusion by Disturbed.
must have dreamed a
thousand dreams
Been haunted by a million screams
But I can
hear the marching feet
They're moving into the street
Now,
did you read the news today?
They say the danger has gone away
But
I can see the fire's still alight
They're burning into the
night
There's too many men, too many people
Making too many
problems
And there's not much love to go around
Can't you see
this is a land of confusion?
This is the world we live in
And
these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To
make it a place worth living in
Oh, superman, where are you
now?
When everything's gone wrong somehow?
The men of steel,
these men of power
Are losing control by the hour
This is
the time, this is the place
So we look for the future
But
there's not much love to go around
Tell me why this is a land of
confusion
This is the world we live in
And these are the
hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a
place worth living in
I remember long ago
When the sun was
shining
And all the stars were bright all through the night
In
the wake of this madness, as I held you tight
So long ago
I
won't be coming home tonight
My generation will put it right
We're
not just making promises
That we know we'll never keep
There's
too many men, too many people
Making too many problems
And
there's not much love to go round
Can't you see this is a land of
confusion?
Now, this is the world we live in
And these are
the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make
it a place worth fighting for
This is the world we live in
And
these are the names we're given
Stand up and let's start
showing
Just where our lives are going to
By this time we were in class. My first class was Spanish 2. I really hated this class. I paid no attention until we got to lunch. I walked into the cafeteria and sat down by Tyler and Michael. It was towards prom time and it was time to nominate prom king/queens.
"Edward Cullen!" someone said. I snorted. That figures. Oh great, he didn't refuse.
"Tyler Wilkinson." I said. I laughed at his face, but he didn't refuse.
"You're going to get it now." He whispered as they stared to nominate queens.
"Natasha Swan!" Tyler said.
"NO! I refuse!" I said.
"What?" the teacher asked.
"I said N…" Tyler put his hand over my mouth.
"She accepts." Tyler said. He took his hand away.
"Like hell I do." I said.
"I do n…" once again my mouth was covered, this time by Michael. When I finally freed myself the teacher was gone. "Oh I hate you two soooo much." I said.
They smiled. I heard laughing and turned to see Alice and the rest of the Cullens laughing at me.
I got up and walked over to them. "Shut the hell up okay?" I said and smacked them all on the back of the heads. They were shocked.
That made Michael and Tyler start laughing. I sighed and walked back to my table. I smacked them both on the back on the head and sat down. I smiled and ate my lunch. I was shocked at how much I was able to resist Edward. I was doing really well.
I started to sing with the song that was playing on the radio, Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
Half past twelve
And
I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to
spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside my
window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to
see the gloom
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my
prayer
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't
somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man
after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the
day
Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with a fortune
to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Tired of
T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's
nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's not a soul out
there
No one to hear my prayer
Gimme gimme gimme a man
after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows away
Gimme
gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to
the break of the day
Gimme gimme gimme a man after
midnight...
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...
There's
not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer
Gimme gimme
gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the
shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me
through the darkness to the break of the day
Gimme gimme gimme a
man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase the shadows
away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the
darkness to the break of the day
After the song was over, every clapped. Bella, I heard someone calling my name. I was scared. Bella, I was called again.
I walked outside and saw….
Review or you will never know who called her.
