AN: Edward's P.O.V....once again, OBVIOUSLY. Uhm, and vamps in the chappie...OBVIOUSLY. That is all.
Touch My Hand
My name is Edward Cullen. And I'm a professional singer. And, pretty popular too. But, thankfully, I don't let fame get to my head. I'm having a concert tonight in Seattle, Washington. Quite close to my birthplace, well, hometown, no…AH DANG IT! Well, guess I might-as-well tell you, I'm a vampire. So, technically, I've had a few hometowns. My most recent one, though, and the one fans all know, is Forks, Washington.
Now that you know I'm a vampire, you've probably inferred that where I've gotten my voice was because of vampirism. And…you are correct. I know, that's kind of cheating, but it wasn't my choice to become a vampire, and I really enjoy singing.
Quite recently, I've had a song written that I didn't really know what it was about. It's called Touch My Hand. But, I guessed, to please fans, I sung it, and it became a hit.
Saw you from the distance,
Saw you from the stage,
Something 'bout the look in your eyes,
Something 'bout your beautiful face,
In a sea of people,
There was only you,
I never knew what this song was about,
But suddenly now I do,
It was concert time. I began singing Touch My Hand, the unknown song, and everyone either began jumping, or pulled out their cell phones to wave them in the air. Quickly, I face popped out to me like there was a big neon-red sign over her that read, "LOOK AT ME." She was beautiful. Light brown hair framed her pale face and chocolate eyes shone. She looked at me with adoration, and I realized with a jolt what the unknown song was about.
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,
Reach out as far as you can,
Only me, only you, and the band,
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,
I, in a trance, loped over to the edge of the stage, and knelt down, waving my hand for any fan to grab, but, it was more for her than anybody else.
Can't let the music stop,
Can't let this feeling end,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never see you again,
Can't let the music stop,
Until I touch your hand,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never get the chance again,
I'll never get the chance again,
I'll never get the chance again,
Whatever I did, this song could not stop. If I had to, I would sing the chorus over and over again, but I had to grasp this girls hand, just once, and I would be satisfied.
I see the sparkle of a million flashlights,
A wonder wall of stars,
But the one that's shining out so bright,
Is the one right where you are,
Almost everyone's cell phones were shining, illuminating the otherwise darkness. But she didn't need one. She was beaming up with adoration, and that stuck out more than the brightest cell phone.
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,
Reach out as far as you can,
Only me, only you, and the band,
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,
Can't let the music stop,
Can't let this feeling end,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never see you again,
Can't let the music stop,
Until I touch your hand,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never get the chance again,
I'll never get the chance again,
Saw you from the distance,
Saw you from the stage,
Something 'bout the look in your eyes,
Something 'bout your beautiful face,
Can't let the music stop,
Can't let this feeling end,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never see you again,
Can't let the music stop,
Until I touch your hand,
Cause if I do it'll all be over,
I'll never get the chance again,
I'll never get the chance again,
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand, (I'll never get the chance again)
Reach out as far as you can, (I'll never get the chance again)
Only me, only you, and the band,
Trying to reach out to you,
Touch my hand,
Yeah, yeah
Right at the end of the song, first 'yeah', the girl reached out and grasped my hand, for only a second. That second lasted a lifetime for me, and the meaning of the unknown song was fully revealed.
