annabelle's POV

after uncle jasper, aunt alice, and aunt rosalie sat me on the couch, they uncovered my eyes.

and sitting in front of me was the guitar from the music shop that i wanted, and one of those vintage silver microphones with a set of proffessional headphones.

i screamed. everyone laughed. i gaped at in shock. i knew they were rich, but were they really rich enough to buy me recording equipment?

"so, did you like your first gift out of many more to come?" uncle jasper asked, chuckling. i ran up and hugged him. then i pulled away and looked him straight in the eye, totally serious.

"i don't want anyone spending a large amount of money on me. that's one thing i've learned from my mom." i said jokingly. he laughed and kissed my forehead. "no promises, darlin" and i turned to everyone else.

"let's hear a song, annabelle!" aunt rosalie said, and everyone else nodded. i grinned. i was about to say i didn't have my music with me, but dad stepped up and handed me my music folder.

"i'm always prepared." he replied to my questioning look. i looked around at everyone else.

"any requests?" i asked. uncle emmett spoke up then.

"what's your favorite song?" he asked. i smiled and put on the headphones, picked up the guitar, and started to sing into the microphone.

i sang "decode" by paramore, my favorite-est song ever. i put my heart into it, and when i came to the "boiling in my blood" part, everyone laughed.

i finished the song, and everyone cheered loudly. i beamed.

i love my family.

hope you enjoyed this! REVIEW PEOPLE!!!!
