"Here we go," Rosalie said as she pulled a tape out. "This one's I Told You So."
The video started with me and Mary glaring at each other, standing in an empty classroom in school. I snapped, "Just tell the dude already! You like him, big chiz! TELL HIM! Most guys like you to make the first move. Okay? Just effing tell him!"
Mary snarled, "No way! If he rejects me, what will happen? You don't seem to know so I'll tell you. I will be beyond crushed. I mean killed, stomped on, ran through a shredder, burned, and crushed again! I WILL NOT TELL HIM!"
I grabbed her shoulders and shook her as I said, "He won't reject you! I see how he looks at you, Mary! Just be a woman and tell him!"
Her eyes got wide. She whispered, "Do you really think so?"
I nodded and Mary grinned. The screen went black and white writing scrolled across: TIME SKIP! 30 MINUTES!
The screen switched back to the school, but this time we were in the girls' bathroom. Mary was hugging me tightly and I was smirking. When she let go, I said, "I told you so, Mary."
We laughed and the video ended.
Everyone was barely containing laughter. I frowned. Esme picked this time. She read, "This one is called Linger."
I groaned. I remembered that one.
I was crying my eyes out as I looked into the camera. You could see me sitting on my bed, a guitar across my lap. I sniffled, "Well, this is it. My life is over. I have no friends, I have no family that understands me, and my love is gone. I feel like dying."
I sighed and continued, "Before I do decide anything drastic, I'm going to play a little tune on my guitar and sing to it. This is Linger."
If you, if you could return, don't let it burn, don't let it fade.
I'm sure I'm not being rude, but it's just your attitude,
It's tearing me apart, It's ruining everything.
I swore, I swore I would be true, and honey, so did you.
So why were you holding her hand? Is that the way we stand?
Were you lying all the time? Was it just a game to you?
But I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger?
Oh, I thought the world of you.
I thought nothing could go wrong,
But I was wrong. I was wrong.
If you, if you could get by, trying not to lie,
Things wouldn't be so confused and I wouldn't feel so used,
But you always really knew, I just wanna be with you.
But I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger?
And I'm in so deep. You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger?
You know I'm such a fool for you.
You got me wrapped around your finger, ah, ha, ha.
Do you have to let it linger? Do you have to, do you have to,
Do you have to let it linger?
I let the final note ring out and sighed, "That was Linger by The Cranberries. It doesn't completely fit, with it being about a guy cheating, but it gets my message across. Why does he have to linger?"
Then, the video went black.
Edward pulled me to him and kissed my forehead. He murmured, "I'm sorry, love."
I closed my eyes and said, "There's nothing to forgive."
I pulled my knees up to my chest and muttered, "At least that's not the other video. I did one other of me singing, and it's really embarassing."
Emmett and Alice exchanged conspirital glances and Alice smirked, "I guess we'll have to find it, then."
Lovely.
Alright, that's that! R&R
