Heyyyy guyssss sorry for the wait!!! Been really busy!!!! Please give me ideas! And thank you to everyone who has either reviewed my story or set it up for an alert or favorite or put me in their favorite author list! It means a lot to know people like my story! I love the feeling!

Disclaimer: *sigh* do I keep having to tell you I don't own Twilight? It's starting to depress me!

Previously: I had trusted Jacob and look where that took me. I had trusted Edward and that hadn't been any better. All I know is that trusting people sucks!

Bella's POV (After school)

"No Alice, I'm not going!" I said to Alice after a good half hour of arguing with her about going to the talent show. She wants me to go, but I'd really rather not with what has happened today.

"Why not? Just because of Edward you're not going to have a good time?" She asked. Hey, hey, hey, wait. I never told her about the thing with Edward. I wanted one less awkward situation with her that day.

"You know about the thing with Edward?" I asked.

"With him and Tanya kissing?" she asked looking up at me. I just nodded. "Well Tanya told Lauren, Lauren told Jessica, Jessica told Angela, and Angela told me!" she said and then continued, "Why you didn't tell me is a question I keep asking myself though. Bella, I'm your best friend, you should tell me these things!"

I sighed, "Yes, I know I'm your best friend and your mine too, but he's your cousin! How am I supposed to talk to you about my boyfriend problems when my boyfriend—well I don't know where we stand now—is your cousin?"

She looked at me completely bewildered, "Because we are friends! Just pretend he and I aren't related whatsoever. Okay now give me details, I need to know what happened so I can yell at him later!" she laughed.

I showed her a half smile and said, "There's not many details to give, just he told me to meet him at his locker when I finished getting my stuff and when I got there I saw Tanya and him kissing!" A few tears streamed down my face.

"I told him!" I heard Alice mumble.

"You told him what?" I asked not sure what she meant.

"You remember this morning when Edward and I were talking and you heard a part of our conversation?" she asked me and I nodded, "I was telling him that I had a feeling Tanya was going to pull something today. I swear, I'm a physic!"

I laughed, "Alice, practically everyone that knows you thinks you're physic!"

Now she laughed, "It's not my fault I'm a good guesser! I just get these like; I don't even know what to call them, visions of some sort that give me an idea of what's going to happen." I nodded with what she was saying and then she continued, "And, I had a 'vision' that you are coming to the talent show with us!" she said while grabbing my arm.

"I'm not going." I told her simply while I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Oh Emmett." She called in a sing song-y voice.

"I'm not afraid of Emmett; he's like a brother to me." I said wondering what she had in mind.

Emmett came running into the room yelling, "Hey Alice glad you called I was about to come up anyways. Why is Edward all moping around? He looks like a zombie if you ask me." He said all the while looking at Alice. When he turned around he saw me with red eyes and wet cheeks and came to me giving me a big bear hug while saying, "What's wrong Belly-Bells? Did something happen?"

I sighed, "Cant. Breathe."

"Whoops," he said and put me down. Alice came walked over next to me and Emmett said, "So, what happened?"

"Well, I saw Edward kissing Tanya at school."

He gasped. "He did that to you!" I just nodded.

Alice then said, "Anyways, the reason I called you up here was to get Bella to come to the talent show with us. She refuses to go, so could you tickle her or something into coming with us?"

"Not tickle her but I can try to get her to come!" he said as if I wasn't even there. "You can sit next to me and hold my hand!" Emmett said looking at me.

I laughed, "I don't think Rosalie will like that very much."

"She knows I don't like you that way, I mean ewww." Emmett said while sticking his tongue out at me. I glared at him, "I-I m-mean, not that your not………..attractive…….its just, uh, I, uh, think of you as a sister……..not a girlfriend." He said stammering.

I burst out laughing, "I know! I was just joking. But you don't need to hold my hand, I'm not going."

"Oh yes you are." He said with an evil look on his face. He grabbed me and started to tickle my stomach, neck and underarms.

"I. Thought. You. Said. No. Tickling." I said in between laughs.

"That was before I knew you were going to be so stubborn." He said while still tickling. "So if you promise you will come to the talent show, I'll stop tickling you."

I looked over to Alice while still laughing from getting tickled to see her clutching her stomach cracking up. "Okay, I'll g-g-go!" I managed to sputter out.

"Promise?" Emmett asked me, still tickling me.

"Promise!" I said—more like yelled.

"Okay," he said while putting me down, "Better get ready. My jobs done here!" he said while marching out of my room.

"Next destination: My Room." Alice said while pulling me through the hallways.

"Please say we aren't playing Bella Barbie." I told her while using the nick name she liked to refer to her makeovers as.

"We are not playing Bella Barbie." She said and I started to smile before she continued. "Okay, I said it, now let's go play it!"

I groaned and said, "Let's just get this over with!"

Alice looked at me shocked, "Makeovers are not something to 'just get over with' they are the best thing ever invented!"

I laughed and followed her to her room. After about 2 and half hours later I was able to look into the mirror.

She had me dressed in a cute pink—very low—American Eagle top with a pair of really short jean shorts.

I looked good but this was way to revealing! "Alice! I can't wear this! It shows everything!" I said while scanning my body in the mirror.

"That's the point." Alice said with a smirk, "Make Edward crazy!"

I smiled and then said, "Well then, let's do this!"

Jasper and Rosalie came over so we could all go to the talent show together. Edward and Jasper had to leave earlier since they were going to be performing in the talent show.

"So, what's the car arrangements?" I ask everyone once we are all ready.

"We can all go together; there are only 4 of us to fit in the car. Emmett, do you want to take your car?" Alice said.

He shrugged, "Fine with me!" we all got into his jeep. Emmett driving, Rosalie in the passengers seat and Alice and I in the back. Emmett's jeep was a mess! It had paper bags all over the floor and old soda bottles in the cup holders. There was even an old cheeseburger!

"Wow, Emmett, was there a tornado in here?" I asked him.

"What do ya mean Bells? I just cleaned it yesterday?" He asked me while driving.

"Oh nothing." I said and Alice and Rosalie started laughing along with me.

Rosalie was facing the back so she could talk to me and Alice. "Bella, you look awesome! Another round of Bella Barbie for you?" she asked.

"Hey! Are you saying I couldn't make myself look good?" I asked Rosalie pretending to be hurt.

"I'm not saying you couldn't but Bella, you'd normally just where long jeans and a loose fitting t-shirt."

"True." I said and we all laughed. I had completely forgotten about Edward while being with my friends.

When we got to the school, I saw that it was surprisingly crowded. At talent shows in Phoenix, only a few people went. Basically the whole school was here!

Alice, Emmett, Rosalie and I got really good seats. Front row to be exact. When we asked Alice how she got us such good seats she just said, "I have my ways." What ways we weren't sure of.

Soon after mindless chatter the principal came out. "As you all know, I'm Principal Carter. Thank you all for coming we have many great people being in the show this year. And first is Lee Stevens playing his drums! So everyone give a round of applause for Lee!" Everyone started clapping and a few people hooted.

Lee was really good! I didn't recognize the song; I think it was a song he wrote. After Lee was Lauren Mallory singing Brittney Spears' Womanizer. Now she was awful! She had a really high, squeaky, nasally voice and when she finished singing she curtsied and waited for people to clap. No one clapped.

After Lauren were Jessica and Mike singing a duet. Once again, I think they wrote the song. They were pretty good. I wouldn't see them winning American Idle any time soon but they were no where near as bad as Lauren. Then after them were just a few random people that I didn't really know doing all different things like singing and dancing and playing instruments.

Finally it was Jasper's turn. Then after Jasper would be Edward.

Everyone started to laugh when Jasper came out to the stage. He was wearing a long blond wig, a pink tank top—way to small, one of Alice's I'm sure—and a pair of jean shorts just a tiny bit longer than mine. He looked hilarious!

He walked up to the mike and said, "Before I start my act I just wanted to let everyone know, that my girlfriend Alice made me do this!" he was about to start the music but before he did so quickly added, "And I'm not a cross-dresser, this is just an act!" The music then started and he sang the girl part of Barbie Girl.

By the end of the song, the crowd was in hysterics! I could so see Jasper winning this thing! He was definitely the best one so far. Then the performer I was not looking forward to seeing came on to stage. He smiled to everyone but his eyes looked sad. I looked up to him and noticed he was looking at me too, our eyes connected but I quickly glanced away.

He started to talk, "Hey everyone, I know I'm not really suppose to be doing this now because it will make my act a lot longer but I have to do this." He looked straight at me "Bella, I didn't kiss Tanya. Tanya kissed me, and if you don't believe that I can tell the truth I'll just have to admit to things I've done in the past." He looked over to Tanya and said, "Tanya remember that time I told you I had to go somewhere with my family instead of going to the school dance?" She nodded then Edward continued, "Well, I didn't. Instead of going to the dance with you—which at the time I thought was lame--I went out with my friends to watch the football game and get drunk. Okay, um, Danny, do you remember the time I told you I was sick and couldn't come over to your house to finish that big biology project?"

"Yeah, I remember that," Danny said.

"Well, I wasn't sick at all. I just didn't want to do the work."

"Figures." Danny mumbled.

"Emmett, remember when I told you Jasper stole you diary?" Edward asked.

"Psh, I don't have a diary." Emmett said obviously lying.

"Yeah, well anyways, I stole it not Jasper. And Alice, remember when I told you Emmett lost your favorite necklace and earring set?"

She nodded and glared at Edward, "Yeah well, it wasn't lost. I gave it to my girlfriend. And with that Tanya, I didn't buy those for you."

From behind Edward Principal Carter cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Masen, get on with your act."

"Okay, one minute. So Bella, I swear to you, Tanya kissed me. Not the other way around. I don't have any feelings for her anymore. Honestly, I never really had feelings for her, and I honestly don't think she had feelings for me. I think she just wanted the popularity."

Tanya stood and stomped out of the room when Edward said that. Edward hesitated then said. "Bella. I know this is early and you probably don't feel the same way but……." He stopped talking for a second. Hurry up! I thought. I want to know what he has to say. "Bella, I love you." I gasped and around me I heard hoots and whistles. I turned bright red.

I'm guessing he was waiting for a response because he said, "It's ok if you don't feel the same. I just had to let you know."

And without even thinking I yelled up to the stage, "Edward! I love you too!" I can't believe I just did that! But when I said it, it felt so right.

"You do?" he asked. And I nodded, I felt as if we were the only two people in the room when in reality the whole school was there.

He now smiled a big toothy smile that matches his eyes. "Well, I guess I better get on with my act!"

Everyone clapped and I heard a bunch of, "Awwwww's." come from a lot of the girls.

He sat down at the piano and said, "I have two things to do. I'm playing a song that I composed on the piano and then I will be singing a song. On the piano I'm playing the song I wrote for my Bella." He called me his Bella! I can get used to that. At that he started playing the lullaby he had played for me on Saturday. It was just as beautiful as it had been the first time he played it. As if his fingers weren't even touching the keys.

After he finished he started talking again. "And now, I will be singing I'm Yours by Jason Mraz. And as you all can guess, it is dedicated to my Bella." he said my Bella while looking at Mike. It was really funny, Mike's expression was priceless. Then he started to sing the song. He was singing this because I had told him it was my favorite song. He is so sweet!

Edward would look out to the crowd at points but three fourths of the song he sang he stared into my eyes and I stared right back. It was as if I were floating on a cloud. After him apoligizing to me in front of the whole school I think I can believe him. At the end of his song the crowd started to clap so loudly there could have been a thunderstorm outside and we wouldn't have known it.

Outside of the auditorium was a voting table where everyone had to vote for the winner. I of course voted for Edward. When everyone was once again seated Principal Carter called each contestant out onto the stage where they stood in a line. "Okay everyone. We have the results for the winner! In third place is Jessica Stanley and Mike Newton with there singing duet!" everyone clapped. "In second place is Lee Stevens with playing his drums!" More clapping, "And first place there is a tie! The tie for first place is Jasper Hale singing Barbie Girl and Edward Masen with all of the things he did! Congratulations to you all! Everyone was fantastic!" On stage Edward and Jasper did a high five and the crowd erupted with sound as everyone clapped.

Alice, Emmett, Rosalie and I waited outside of the school for Edward and Jasper. They came out joking about who was better in the competition.

"You did awesome!" Alice squealed as she ran into Jasper's arms and gave him a huge kiss on his lips.

He laughed, "Thanks Alice."

"Yeah dude, you both did great!" Emmett said and Rosalie nodded in agreement.

Edward came over to me and said, "Want to come home with me in my car? Have some alone time?"

I blushed, "S-sure, but what about Jasper?"

"You and him can switch spots; he can go with the rest of the group."

"Fine with me." I said with a big smile and after telling the rest what the arrangements we were going to have for driving, I took Edward's hand as he lead me to his car.

A/N: yay!!!!! Bella and Edward are back together again!!!!! Lol so anyways, like I said before PLEASE give me ideas. I have an idea for the next chapter. It's most likely going to be called, "Revenge." But you'll just have to wait and see who the revenge is on!!! Soooo did you like this chapterrr??????? Please review!!!!! Thank you!
