Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, or any of the lovely characters. Nor do I own the song (that belongs to Nickelback).
AN: Who's proud of me? I'm updating again! Oh, and who read my Halloween story? Out of curiosity. Anyways, about the other story I'm writing, I re-read it a while ago and realized it was absolutely horrible, so I am in the process of rewriting it, so it will be a while. Just an FYI.
Now, I have a question for everyone, and I got this idea from another author.
What do you all think I look like? Gender (won't be offended by guesses) hair color, eye color, height, anything (so long as it's appropriate). Let me know through a review please. I will try and think up a bonus update by Wednesday if I get…. Three responses. As a reward for satisfying my curiosity.
This story is for darling Mike. The human man needs some love. (Inspired by, 'Someone that You're With' by Nickelback)

Turtle Doves
Clouds churned sluggish and thick up above, pressing down on the trees which seemed to be the only thing holding them up. The rain had yet to unleash its wrath upon the student body, but the downpour was inevitable. By the middle of the next hour, at the latest.
He walked behind them, equally as lethargic as the clouds above. His 'girlfriend' babbled incessantly in his ear, something about a gooey romance she wanted to see, not so subtly hinting at him to take her out that night. Dark theater. Romance movie. With Jessica. He mentally shuddered. Jess was okay and all and he liked her fine, just not that strongly in that way. He still couldn't remember why he agreed to go out with her. Oh, yeah. The hot brunette in front of him had suggested it. God, that girl was amazing, and he could have been with her. But stupid Cullen came along and stole the spotlight. He wanted to be with her, she was sweet and soft, and didn't talk all the time. Unlike certain somebody next to him right now.
Eyes still trained on the waves of brown before him, he imagined what it could have been like, if not for Cullen, who was presently walking beside the girl of Mike's dreams. Damn him. If Edward hadn't been there, he and Bella could have been comfortable with each other. It would have been nice. He would have made her laugh, and she would smile at him, not dearest Eddie.
In the back of his mind, he imagined what it would be like to kiss her, though was quickly embarrassed by the thought. In front of him, Edward stiffened, glaring quickly over his stupid perfect shoulder at him, and then moving closer to Bella. Push him away, something! Mike silently urged. He hoped, really. God, he wanted to be with her so bad. He liked her. A lot. But, as much as he didn't want to admit it, she didn't like him. Because of stupid Cullen, she wouldn't even glance at him.
Oh well. She was probably a little out of his league anyways. He was like a turtle (though turtles were pretty awesome, he had to admit. Certain ones looked cool…) and she was like a dove. And Edward had to be a freaking eagle, luring the other pretty bird in. Where the hell did that simile come from? Pssh, I'm so not a turtle…am I? He banished the thought, quickly reassuring himself. He was so not a turtle. And he could only hope Bella would see that one day. In the mean time, there was Jessica. Another mental shudder. Regardless, he turned his attention to her.
"So what was that movie you wanted to see again?"
Song Lyrics:
I
reside in 209, you're in 208
You moved in last Friday night,
and
I just couldn't wait
So I tried to call across the hall,
to
ask you out someday
But a lineup formed outside your door, and I
was way too late
[CHORUS
Well I'd rather start off
slow
This whole thing's like
some sort of race
Instead of
winning what I want
I'm sitting here in second place
Because
somewhere
the one I wanna be with's
with somebody else
Oh
god, I wanna be that
someone that you're with
I wanna be that
someone
that you're with
And I can talk about it all day long
'til I run out of breath
But I still wanna be that
someone
that you're with
I've got to be that
someone that you're
with
And I'm pacing by the phone
'Cause I hate to be alone
And
if you're out there with him
somewhere and just about to kiss
God
I wanna be that
someone that you're with
Well I hear your
favorite songs
you sing along with everyday
And I borrow
things that
I don't need for conversation sake
Last night I
heard your key,
it hit your lock at 4 AM
Instead of being out
with me
you must be out with them
[CHORUS
Because
somewhere the one
I wanna be with's
with somebody else
Oh
god, I wanna be that
someone that you're with
I wanna be that
someone that you're with
And I can talk about it all day long
'til I run out of breath
But I still wanna be that
someone
that you're with
I've got to be that
someone that you're
with
And I'm pacing by the phone
'Cause I hate to be alone
And
if you're out there with him
somewhere and just about to
kiss
God, I wanna be that
someone that you're with
Well
somewhere the one
I wanna be with's
with somebody else
Oh
god, I wanna be that
someone that you're with
And I can talk
about it all day long
'til I run out of breath
But I still
wanna be that
someone that you're with
I've got to be that
someone that you're with
And I'm pacing by the phone
'Cause
I hate to be alone
And if you're out there with him
somewhere
and just about to kiss
God, I've got to be that
someone that
I
wanna be that someone that
I've got to be that
someone that
you're with
