I had a GREAT time while writting this! Enjoy!


Edward´s POV

"Why won't you tell me what's going on?" I'll admit I was whining but I didn't like feeling left out with whatever the girls were planning right now.

Bella just smiled at me and shook her head. "You'll know soon enough, just promise to do what I asked you. Ok?"

"Fine but you owe me" I smirked and threw her a wink.

"Sure, sure" she reached up and gave me a kiss in the cheek, then turned around and exited through my front door.

Bella had called me this morning and asked if she could come down here to talk a bit, of course I said yes and she was here in a matter of minutes. Apparently the girls had something planed for tonight and wanted us to tag along.

It had been two weeks since the whole hurricane thing and the city was coming back into full function. Stores were opening again, business running again, some with more force than others, but the city was showing signs of life again. And I was more than desperate to get out of the building, don't get me wrong, I really liked spending time with my friends and loved the time with Bella but I was getting sick of the same thing every single day for weeks.

So going out tonight seemed like a great idea. The thing that bothers me though was the not knowing what we were doing or where we were going. Ok and maybe I wanted to ask Bella out—properly—before she asked me out, well all of us, but it was still a small bummer.

Bella had left me with two clear instructions. One: dress in something blue. And two: to be ready at 8:00 PM sharp.

She said Alice would call Jasper to tell him as well and I suppose Rose would call Emmett. Girls could be so sneaky some times. Whatever. I'll do what Bella told me to do and just let the night play out.

At a quarter till eight, just as I was finishing dressing up there was a soft knock on my door and then Jasper popped in.

"You ready?" Jasper asked me.

"Yup" I said as I finished with the buttons of my shirt.

"Great." He said and was turning back around then came back in. "Oh, dude before I forget. Alice called earlier and told me to tell you to wear your red chucks. Beats me why, but I said I'd pass the message"

I looked down to see Jasper was sporting his black chucks as well and was also sticking to the blue-dress-code of the night. It should seem weird to me that Alice actually knew what shoes I owned but after spending more than a week at her place it would make sense that she notices. Plus, there was no use in arguing with the little pixie. She always won. I don't know how Jasper handles it.

So I just shrugged and went to get them out of my closet. After putting them on I went to meet Jasper in the foyer.

"Where's Emmett?" I asked. I didn't want to be late waiting for him and the guy had a habit of running late.

"He went out with Rosalie earlier today; he said they'll meet us there. Wherever there is." He added the last part with a grumble. I'm guessing he didn't like the not knowing either.

"Ok, let's go get the girls"

So we made our way upstairs, using the stairs had become a daily routine for the whole lot of us. Either we some of us were upstairs or one of the girls will be hanging out downstairs.

We walked to their door and knocked.

"Coming" Bella yelled from the inside and I couldn't help the goofy grin that automatically plastered itself on my face.

I could hear Jasper chuckling next to me "Dude…"

"Shut up" I hissed and smacked his arm.

Just then my beautiful girl opened the door and smiled at us. I could see Alice coming to the door as well, while putting on some earrings.

They were dressed in blue dresses. Completely different, but still blue.

Bella suddenly looked down at her feet and I could see it. Red pumps in front of my red chucks. She looked up towards her friend and chuckled "Alice?"

A quick glance at Alice's feet showed me some black heels that went along with Jasper's black chucks.

"Oh, what?" Alice defended herself "If we were all going to stick to this blue theme I had to make sure we had some color. Our feet were the only choice that Rose let me"

"But the pairing?" Bella asked once again.

"Shut it, B" Alice giggled. "It looks cute and your red bag looks amazing with that dress and those shoes. Now let's move it people we can't be late tonight"

"Late to what exactly?" Jasper tried to pry out of Alice.

"Nu-huh. No such luck" Alice laughed and started to push the three of us out the door, which was a pretty funny sight considering her size.

Bella and Alice grabbed her purses and we made our way downstairs.

Alice insisted in taking her car and so Bella and I were squished into the small back seat, while Jasper rode in the passenger seat.

"Ok guys, listen up" Alice broke the silence. "We girls are well informed of what's about to happen tonight but you two need to do as we tell you."

"Does Emmett know?" I asked.

"Nope." Alice answered me "But they should be there by now. Ok so when we get there, we will go straight in, no questions, buts, or whining of any sort. Do I make myself clear?"

"Whining?" Jasper asked. "Come on! Just tell us where we're going."

"Will you two just be patient" Bella laughed. "Do as we tell you. Believe me, it will be worth it"

So we listened and did as we were told. Man we were turning into such girls.

We arrived and Alice pulled into the lot that was up front. After we all got out of the car I could see a lot of people arriving as well and then I noticed it—how couldn't you notice it—big and bright, a sign that read Tonight Open Mike. I could feel Jasper tensing up next to me.

"Nu-huh. No way" he started to say but Alice took his hand and started to pull him towards the entrance.

"I said no whining Jasper." Alice told him. "Plus, you'll be fine. I promise"

I was still standing next to the car, with serious doubts about moving or not but Bella laughed and started to pull me towards the door as well.

"Come on. I promised it would be worth it, remember"

I sighed and let her drag me. This better be good.

Emmett's POV

After the whole rescuing debacle, things had gotten better between Rosalie and me. For starters, we got along and that was a good thing.

We were able to talk and enjoy the time we had to spend trapped in the building together—well as much as you can do it while being locked in there for weeks.

But things in the city had gotten better and I was toying with the idea of maybe asking her out on a real date. I wasn't sure but I guessed that we could continue being friends, outside of the whole gang.

What surprised me though was that she was the one to ask me out. And let me tell you it was very straight forward. No playing with a curl of her hair and looking at her feet while she whispered/rushed the asking out. No. It was a simple and straight "Do you want to go out tomorrow?"

I was stunned at first but I agreed and didn't even have to worry with the arrangements. She had everything planed. We had lunch together and then spent the afternoon just talking.

But something weird happened. We were talking and then she suddenly glanced at her watch and stood up.

"We have to go," she said and started picking up her things.

"What? Why?" I asked her. "Do you want to go home?"

"No, no. it's just that we're meeting the rest of the guys tonight and we're running late as it is." She then turned to me and smiled "I got caught up with our conversation."

Ok, so she wasn't ditching me and the only reason we had to rush was because we had been having a good time together and she forgot of the hour. That was good, right?

So we left the small café and headed back to her car. Well her rented car, since she still hadn't bought another one but still had to get to work. Her office had started running again a couple of days back and she had to go; I had offered her to drive her back and forth but she refused. Rose liked being independent.

After driving for a couple of minutes in comfortable silence we finally reached the place I assumed was the one where we would be meeting the rest of the gang.

Tonight Open Mike read a colorful sign on a banner on the side of the main entrance. That's weird. I wonder if we're here to see some standup comedy or something like that. I just shrugged and didn't bother thinking about it too much.

We got out of the car but Rosalie opened the back door and grabbed a backpack. Then closed the door, put the alarm and continued like nothing had happened.

I shot her a confused look but she ignored me and kept walking.

What's going on? A little voice in my head asked.

We got inside and immediately saw Alice waving us to the table they were all sitting. Up front and close to the stage.

As we reached the table one thing registered. Blue. They were all dressed in something blue, even Rosalie. But I hadn't thought anything of it since it was just the two of us. Suddenly my red t-shirt and jeans looked very suspicious.

Rosalie still hadn't said anything, she just handed the backpack to Alice, who gladly took it and then jumped down from her stool.

"Come on Emmett" Alice said "I need your help with something"

"Alice?" Jasper asked her with a confused looked.

"It's Ok Jasper, I'll be right back" she assured him. Then took my arm and started pulling away from the table.

"Alice what do you need my help with?" I asked her.

"It's very simply actually all you need to know is listen to me and do as I say" Alice stopped and turned to look at me. "Do you remember the truth or dare game we played when you guys first crashed at our place?"

"Umm" I pondered. "Oh! Yes, it was the one where we dared Edward to make out with Bella, right? Man they really got into the game."

"Uh, yes but no" Alice shook her head. "Remember what your dare was?"

I looked at her and then it all came back to me.

"Truth or dare, Emmett?" Bella asked.

"Dare, of course!" I yelled "There's nothing that I won't do"

"Nothing, huh?" Rose smirked and rolled her eyes at me.

"Yes, nothing" I said while leaning down to be at eye level with her on my stool "In fact why don't you come up with the dare sweetie?"

"First of all- don't ever call me sweetie again if you wish to keep your lips attached to your mouth, and second—"

"Oh I'm sure you wish my lips continue being attached to my face, don't you?" I interrupted and smirked at Rose.

"Listen you little shit I have the perfect dare for your big ass to perform but we'll have to wait until the power comes up and we can go outside" Rose said.

"Rosie come on" Bella said "It's not like we can wait that long."

"No no" I protested "I'll wait; I really want to see what she has in mind. Let's just save this one and continue with the game."

Of course I had forgotten all about it by now and assumed that everyone else had as well.

"Oh God" I sighed "What does she want me to do?"

Alice handed me the backpack that Rose had brought. Opening it a little I could see a lot of pink. I groaned but swung the backpack over my shoulder.

"Now?" I asked Alice.

"Yup" she answered "You're scheduled to come up in ten minutes, your song has already been selected, all you have to do is follow the lyrics and you'll complete the dare."

"Fine" I squared my shoulders and went to men's bathroom to change. I was going to own this dare even if cost me to do it.

Once inside I checked the stalls and was grateful to see it was all empty, I locked the door and opened the back pack.

This was going to hard but if one thing was for sure I was going to go out there and show Rosalie that I was capable of doing anything and that there was nothing that I wouldn't do.

I took everything out of the bag and changed out of my clothes and into everything that Rose had picked. I looked positively ridiculous. At the bottom of the bag was a little piece of paper folded in half. I took it and opened it.

Who said I couldn't come up
with a good enough dare?

Rosa had written, complete with a pink lipstick kiss in the corner of the paper. I had to give it to her, she was good.

Now I got the whole blue clothes the rest of them were wearing, I was going to stand out like a sore thumb.

One glance at my phone told me it was time for me to get out there. I put my clothes in the bag and left the bathroom.

The lights outside of the bathroom had been turned slightly down and there was a single spotlight on the stage that I was going to be standing in soon. There was a girl finishing some other song and she got a small round of applause when she was done. Then the DJ called back the attention and started introducing the next act—which was mine.

"Listen up folks" he said "Up next we have a guy who hasn't done this before, but I'm told he really wants to pursue a career in this, so let's be supportive OK?"

I shook my head. Of course Rosalie even had to say the career thing; dressed like this, the career people were going to think I was pursuing would be ridiculous one if it was me doing it. Just look at me!

I left my bag next to the darkened stairs and then climbed into the stage. The lights were out but the music was starting. If only Shania Twain knew where her song had winded up.

My spotlight came on and I could see the gaping faces of Jasper and Edward, their jaws hitting the floor. On either side of them Alice and Bella looked like they were suppressing giant grins. But Rosalie, Rosalie was sitting there looking smugger that I could even imagine.

Nu-huh. I was going to own this, completely turn the tables and make a performance that they would never forget.

So I grabbed the mike and leaned in just as the first line of the song was approaching. I didn't even need to read the lyrics I knew the song.

"Let's go girls"
