A/N: Here is another chapter! I hope everyone enjoys it. Again I DO NOT own Twilight and its characters. I do not own any of the actual bands either. They both are bands who I am friends with. I don't think they will mind me using them. They will be glad I am getting their names out there. Enjoy this chapter!

Chicago was great while it lasted. It was great meeting Edward's cousin and his Chi town friends. And I love the new found confidence and spunk the advances of Jessica unwanted advances stirred up. But now we are back on the road. Watch out east coast here we come!
After leaving Chicago we played random dates in Dayton, Ohio, Cleveland, Ohio, a smaller town in Pennsylvania called Erie I believe (It was a beautiful place. We got to go to beach on Presque Isle peninsula and a trip to this small amusement/ water park, Waldameer. I loved it because it wasn't one of those super over priced that are like in every state.). Last night we were in Philly and now here we sit with 2 days off before we have to be in some town New Jersey.
Right now we are sitting the basement of this really nice girl, Erin's living room. She is letting us hang out at her apartment that she shares with her boyfriend, Nick. All of us were intrigued watching some episode of The Cleaner. This is a good episode about a brother of an striving actress discovers his sister cocaine addiction and tries to get William's crew to help, Akani races to find Sweton after he mysteriously goes missing. (A/N: This the actually episode of The Cleaner Jackson Rathbone is in. It is a great episode! I got this part directly from IMDB. ) Then we were all broken out of our trance when Edward's cell phone rang. He answered it and walked into the other room. We didn't pay attention to the show anymore, we trying so hard to eavesdrop on Edward's phone call.
It seemed like hours before Edward re entered the room, but actually it was like 20 minutes tops. He had a look of complete shock on his face.
"Edward, man what's wrong? Did someone die?" Em asked in his normal boisterous voice.
Edward just shook his head no.
"Then what is it hun?" I asked.
"That was an executive at Doghouse Records. He listened to our music on myspace and there is a opening spot at the Bowery Ballroom tonight for The Honorary Title. And they are sending their music scout to listen to us." He tried to remain calm.
Everyone just starred at him in total shock and disbelief.
"You are shitting me. We just didn't get offered an opening slot at the Bowery tonight." Jasper said.
"Yes Jazz, Bowery Ballroom tonight opening for The Honorary Title. I would never joke about any thing this serious. If you don't believe me call the executive back, his name is John." He tossed his phone towards Jasper.
After starring at Edward more we know that he isn't lying to us. "How my god guys we are playing the Bowery in 6 hours." Edward said in an excited voice.
Erin came in at that moment. "So what are you guys up today? You know that I will be working all day and it's a nice day. So you guys should got to NYC for some fun." She asked.
We went on and told her about the Bowery tonight and then we off to NYC for a few hours of sight seeing.
"Well take Nick's car. And we will drive the van to Bowery and meet you guys there. Have fun today."

After seeing Erin off to work, we headed off to the city. Erin told us we could borrow Nick's SUV. (A/N: Picture of Nick's SUV in my profile.)
All six of got in the car, Jasper decided he was driving. I think that its best if he drives because we all know Emmett has road rage and the closeness of the city would just inflame it more. And I don't think any one wants me to drive, afraid they might have a heart attack from how fast I would zoom through the tight, crowd streets.
After getting in Alice plugged in Nick's Garmin GPS system and search for a ferry that will take us to the Statue of Liberty. That ferry happened to be leaving from Battery City Park.
"Hey Jazz, can me make a stop at Best Buy?" I asked with 5 questioning faces looking at me.
"Sure, what are we picking up?" He asked.
"It's a surprise." I said as we drove off to the electronics super store.
We finally parked outside of the store. All of us walked in. Jasper and Alice went to look at cds and Rose and Em went the video games. As I drug Bella off to the digital cameras.
"What are we doing over here?" She looked at all the camera.
"Which one do you like?" I looked at her. I saw her starring at a Nikon Coolpix 12.1 mega pixel digital camera.
I grabbed the first sales associate. "I take that camera with 8 GB memory card and case." She handed me a box with a bundle box with accessories as she got the keys to get the camera. (A/N: Picture on my profile.)
"What the hell are you doing Edward?" Bella asked.
"Buying us a camera. I know we are going to need one and I don't understand why I didn't get one before." I smile that dazzling grin I know that melts her heart.
"But sweetheart, that came is $400 and with the bundle is a total of $470." She with a little worry in her voice.
"Nope, we are getting it and your going to enjoy it." We walked to the cash registers, paid for our purchase and met the rest of our party. And then we back on the road again.
**********
When we arrived we find a parking ramp to park in walked into the park. Jasper and Alice went to go get the tickets to Statue. As the rest of us look at the tacky tourist stuff they were selling down by the ferry dock. Bella was clicking away taking pictures. Soon Alice and Jasper came back to us with our tickets.
"The ferry leaves in 10 minutes. We better get in line." She pointed to the line that was forming in front of a ferry called Miss New York. (A/N: I think that is the name of the ferry I took when I went to the statue like 6 years ago. I am sorry for any inaccuracies.)
All of us got in line. As we got close to the water it was a little colder. Bella shivered a bit. I wrapped my arms around her as we stood in line. The other guys mimicked and matched us.
"Finally! I never thought this damn line would move. I want to see lady liberty before I am an old man." Emmett grumbled.
"Shut up." Rose said as she playfully slapped his arm. Then he turned her to kiss her cheek.
First stop was Ellis Island. Alice told us we have a couple of hours there. We walked around looking at all the names on the wall of the immigrants. The couples went off to see they could find some long lost relatives.
Bella told me about her family heritage. Her great, great, great grand parents were from some town in Italy. And I told her about my family who were from England.
Then we stop at one spot and there they were. 'Sophia and Giuseppe Swan'. These were Bella family. We took several pictures of it. Then Bella drug me off to find my family. We found my family, 'Edmond and Mary Masen'. This makes me feel closer to my family that I never knew and it felt great to walk where they once walked. I just wished my parents would of gotten to see this. To my knowledge they never made it out here, but I know that they are looking down from heaven now. They are probably hanging out with both Edmond and Mary right now.
After walking around the island more I heard the horn off the ferry blowing which meant it was arriving. We meet the rest of our group as boarded the ferry to go to the statue
When we arrived Emmett was bouncing up and down about it.
"I want to be on the top of the world with my girl and friends." he was basically dragging us to the statue and then up the millions of steps to the crown.
When we reached the top. We all look out at the city. All of looked so happy together. Then I heard Em clear his throat to get our attention. He knelt down on one knee in front of the stunned Rose. "Rosie, I have known you forever and I will love you forever. You are my angel. Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?" He looked a little worried. I think he is afraid she might say no.
"Emmy bear, you know I love you…. I will always love you…." She said. Em's face grew more fearful. "And yes I will marry you." She screamed.
Bella was snapping pictures left and right. Then there was squeals of happiness coming from the girls and the other people that were in the crown with us erupted and a round of applause.
After that we headed back to the SUV to do some couple sight seeing. Em and Rose decided they wanted to go to FAO Schwarz toy story, Alice and Jasper were going to Fifth Avenue and Bryant Park and Bells and I are hanging out Central Park. And we would meet up here later.
After all of departed, I decided the first thing we were going to do is one of those horse drawn carriage rides through the park. We got into the carriage and soon we were on our way. We just cuddled together in silence. Then Bella broke the silence.
"Edward what do you think happened to Jesse Camp?" She said in a serious tone.
"Who? Do you mean that homeless looking kid with the high pitch voice that was on TRL in the late '90s?" I asked.
"Yes, I was listening to the 100 Monkeys song 'Small Lean'. Do you think he adjusted well adult?" She looked at me.
"I am not sure sweetheart. I am bet he is find." I kissed her head. We continued on the ride.
"Baby, I love you. I don't mean to scare you any way, but I want to let you know that one day I will do the same thing Emmett did today with Rose." I smiled at her.
"What drag me up thousands of stairs and back down. Then take me to a toy store?" She said with a giggle.
"No, I was talking about asking you to be my wife." She smiled at me as she cuddled more into me. After the ride finished we walked around and took tons and tons of pictures.
Soon we met up with everyone for food at The Boathouse. (A/N: Link to it is in my profile.) We quickly were seated and we order. Emmett told us about the fun he and Rose had on the piano that was featured in the movie 'Big'. Then he gave the girls some gifts. They gave Alice a cute cuddly penguin that was holding with another penguin. The tag said "Warming up each other hearts.'. She awed and thanked them. Then she handed Bella a lion and a lamb.
"Why did you pick these ones?" She asked.
"I don't know they just reminded us of you and Eddie here." Rose smiled and I didn't feel the need to kill her for using that damn, dreaded nickname.
Bella love them. She named them after us. And then we ordered our food.

Then Alice went on about all the stuff she bought all of us on Fifth Avenue. Then she made the us girls jealous when us told who she bumped into in front of a fabric store. She ran in Christian Siriano. She told us about how she almost died of shock and sounded like a giddy fan girl. When they talked about his summer collection.
She finish up her story, we finished eating and paid and left. It was time to leave to meet Erin and Nick at the Bowery.
A/N: Guys I apologize for my lack of new chapters, I had a bit of writer's block and procrastinatitus aka procrastination. I kind of knew what to write but I got some inspiration in the mail. Back in October on Twilight Anonymous I saw this thing that some one start called 'Picks for Jacksper.'. I decided I would send Jackson some picks and I would chance sending a pictured for him to sign in a postage paid envelope. I had giving up on getting back since it had been 8 months. Then Monday when I got home I saw my mail sitting on the top of my printer in my room. I saw the envelope and thought 'hey that looks like my hand writing.' and it was. I opened it and found the picture I sent. He autographed, "Jackie- Much Love. Jackson Rathbone"! I am still bouncing off the wall!
Well I hope you like this chapter! Let me know if you love it or hate or whatever.
