Okay, so I'm updating either early or late. I'm not sure if I updated last week, so it's probably late. Here you go though. It's a little different than the other chapters I've written, but it ties up at the end. Enjoy it, and review.
BPOV
I sat on my bed, thinking about everything. Edward was back at school, and Alice and I had just started smoking the joint she had rolled up before I'd have to be at school. Sure, Seth Clearwater, a federal agent was coming to pick me up for school, but I had to mellow out somehow. I was wigging out man. I was freaked out all the time because I had this creep hot on my trail, and I couldn't sleep in a bed without knowing that someone was there. So when Edward wasn't able to, Alice kept me company. And I wasn't going to intrude on Maggie, especially since Laurent was here now. Grr. Life was getting to be too much. Way too much.
But Laurent was good at protecting me. I knew he'd come into my room and check up on me since he got here, unless Edward was in here too. It was so nice of him. I felt like a rock star, minus the fame, but plus the body guards.
On the other hand, my piercings were healing up very nicely.
I took a drag of the weed, as Alice ran her fingers through my hair as I lay my head in her lap. Her nails felt so good on my scalp. I looked up at her as I held in my breath. She smiled at me.
"Ali, I don't know what the hell I'm going to do. Surely, Seth is going to arrest me for smoking this shit, and if not that, James is going to kidnap me and make me his hostage," I said. Her smile faded.
"I'd kill the bitch before he ever does something to you, sweetie," she said back to me. "You're my best friend. Even more best than Rose. And I've known her since I came out of my father's dick." Alice laughed. "And that's a hell of long time. I mean, I've know you for less than a year, and I just don't think I can live the rest of my life without you," she said happily. I passed her the joint, and she took a drag.
"I know what you mean, A. Just like Edward when he asked me to marry him. And then you with the whole you're-my-best-friend thing. I just . . . I wish my life was normal, like when I had first come to Forks. It's taking so much longer to graduate now, and I can't wait to get out of here and just live with Edward. And I enjoyed stripping, so it seems like a good idea to keep doing it. It paid fantastically. And surely, my mother would cut me off of her money when she finds out that I'm with Edward again." I sighed and took a drag of the joint when Alice passed it back.
"Maybe I could join you," Alice said. I could get Jasper to move up here and then we could be strippers together."
I smiled. "That sounds so appealing. But I'm not sure if Edward would like it if I became a stripper again."
"So what?" Alice said. "Tell him to suck it up. He's the only one that gets to fuck you anyways."
"Hell yes he s. And man does he fuck so good . . ."
The doorbell rang that minute, and I jumped up from where I was sitting. Maggie answered the door because a split second later, her voice called up to me.
"Bella? Seth is here to come get you," she said. I cursed in my head and started running around the room, getting ready; I had only been in my panties and bra.
"Okay!" I stamped out the joint and stashed it into the nightstand, and quickly doused myself with body spray and deodorant.
I got my bag, said bye to Alice, and then ran down the stairs. Seth was standing there in the middle of the living room, all tall and cute-like. He was absolutely adorable. I just wanted to pinch his cute baby cheeks.
He looked at me, and immediately knew. He narrowed his eyes at me.
"Were you smoking marijuana?" he asked me.
"No . . . ?" I said as a question.
He gave me a deadpan look.
I felt heat rise to my cheeks. "It calms me down," I said softly.
"You need to quit that. Because by law, I can't help you if you're under the influence of drugs, Bella," he said to me. I sighed.
"Sure sure," I said.
He ushered me out of the house and then I followed him to the white Impala sitting in the driveway.
"If anybody asks you who I am," Seth said as he pulled out of the driveway, "I'm your cousin."
I nodded and bit my lip.
"And don't even think about running away, or trying to get away from me at all. I can't protect you if I can't see you, Bella."
I nodded again.
He arrived at the school a few minutes later, and parked in the lot. I got out of the car, smoothing the skirt of my uniform. Man I hated school. I didn't want to be here at all, but everyone seemed to want to torture me. Grr.
Seth handed me a bunch of papers. My schedule, school forms, blah, blah. I took out my phone as it vibrated; a text from Edward.
Morning, love. I smiled at his simplicity.
Good morning baby, I sent.
What are you doing?
Class.
Ah. So join me for lunch?
Sure. If I can get Seth to take me.
OK. Just text me then.
Love you.
Love you.
I smiled and shoved my phone in my pocket. Seth was smiling at me. "You're so beautiful when you're in love, did you know that?" He asked. I blushed.
"He makes me happy. I can't argue with that." I smiled and then followed Seth to class.
Everything was the same. Class was always the same. Stuck up teachers who thought they could do better than teach snotty little bitch girls, but they were miserable because they were stuck here doing something they obviously hated. And all the girls ignored me because I was an enemy. I didn't know how since Edward wasn't here, and I wasn't exactly hitting on someone else . . .
But then lunch time came. And Seth took me off campus as I practically got on my knees for him to take me to go see Edward.
"Please Seth? I don't usually get to see him during the week, and Maggie thought it was a good idea for him to stay at the school. I just need to see him Even if it's for a half hour." I looked up at him, making my eyes water.
He sighed. "Fine, just don't cry," he said.
"Thank you! Thank you!" I said. I jumped on him for a hug.
We left for Edward's school and then Seth parked the car. But when I saw Edward standing there with a short brunette chick, my claws came out.
I stepped out of the car, as did Seth. I bet he saw the jealousy in my eyes. Even though it really wasn't jealously, per se, but if she touches him, then I'm going to use my claws on her cute little face.
"Hi Edward," I said with a smile as I leaned against the car. Edward walked over to me, and unexpectedly grabbed my hips and leaned down to kiss me. Surprised, I didn't move for a few seconds, but then I indulged in it just as much as he did.
Seth cleared his throat nonchalantly, and Edward pulled away. But he leaned forward and whispered in my ear, "I missed you."
"Yeah?" I said as he spun me around.
"Yeah. That chick is driving me nuts. I told her I was engaged, and she still won't quit," Edward said with a dark laugh.
I smiled wryly. "If it's a problem, I can put her in her place for sure," I said. I mimed having claws, swiping and scratching.
He laughed, brightly and blithely.
"Come on, Edward, let's get some lunch."

It was nice to see that Bella was smiling. After Seth had left the day before, and all the sex we had, she just looked . . . wrong. Like something was making her sick. And anyone with a brain would know why. But I didn't like seeing hr that way. In fact I hated it.
So she was high. She was happy somehow right?
We left to burger king, Seth sitting a little bit away from us so we could have some privacy. Mostly we kissed, because after this, I would see her until tomorrow at lunch. And that wasn't enough to sustain me at all. But I would have to deal with it.
"Come home tonight," Bella gasped as I kissed that sweet spot on her neck. "Please? I can't sleep without you."
"Can't," I said. If I did, I would get swamped with work, and Maggie would kick my ass.
"If you don't," she said pulling away from me, "I'm divorcing you."
I laughed. "We're not even married yet."
"Yeah, well, that makes it all the more easier." She gave me an evil smile.
"I'll be home after my last class," I said to her, giving in.
"Promise?" She asked, leaning forward.
"Hell yes."
I kissed her hard and furiously. She growled, something I'd never heard from her, and it turned me on.
"We have to stop."
I didn't. I just kissed down her neck, ending up at the space where the first few buttons of her shirt were undone. I licked the top of her breast and she moaned.
"Oh," she moaned. "No, no, stop, Edward."
I did, and she ran her fingers through my hair. "I love you, but I'm not about to have a dry humping session in a booth of a fast food restaurant. Why the hell do you think I want you home? That's in two and a half hours," she said. "Be patient," she commanded.
I smiled. "Fine. Whatever. But I plan to take you in so many ways Bella," I told her.
"Mister Cullen, I expect that," she said very lowly.
I smiled.
Seth had to break us up now, because he had to make sure she got back to school. So they dropped me off and I went to class, enduring English and Bio.
And then it was over. I stayed after class to get some extra credit because my grades were already slipping. Shit. Maggie was going to have a fit. So Mrs. Hartridge gave me a few essay topics due by tomorrow.
But I drove home, stopping by the store after Maggie texted me to get some chocolate ice cream. So while I was at it, I got Bella a lily. Not a rose because she hated those.
Then I drove home, but Bella wasn't there, so she was probably still at school, which meant I had a little bit of time with Alice. I knocked on her door and she called for me to come in. I opened the door and walked in, seeing that she was on her bed, lying on her back, playing with her belly button ring. She looked up at me and smiled.
"Hey, best friend," she said. She sat up and smiled.
I nodded. "Alice."
"What's wrong Edward?" she asked. She patted the place next to her with her hand, motioning for me to go sit with her. I lay on her bed, next to her. It was like old times, before I'd met Bella. I'd go over to Alice's and we would just talk about everything. Anything we could think of was fair game.
"Tell me what's wrong, Edward. I feel like you don't trust me anymore," she said, her voice hurt, even though she had a vibrant smile in place on her lips.
"I do trust you, and nothing's wrong. Well, there's the most obvious thing, but nothing else is wrong," I said. She nodded and smiled, like she didn't believe me.
"Tell me. I'm your best friend. You even told me about that thing that one time," she said laughing.
Anything embarrassing was also fair game. One time I got my you-know-what caught in my zipper at a party . . . I was drunk and the only person I could call was Alice . . . I didn't ever think that was funny, but she always cracked up.
"That's not funny," I said, even though I was laughing too. "And I know that, but I don't know. I wish I could take Bella away to a place where no one could find us that way she'll be safe. Sometimes, I just want to lock her up in the closet. I know she'll be safe there," I said. I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair.
"There's something more," she said. She knew me so well.
"I don't know, Alice. Maybe think that sometimes I'm not good enough for her. After all, I'm just a drug user from a small town with no future because I'm not doing anything with my life. How am I going to marry her if I can't even support her? What if she just so happens to be pregnant soon. I can't live off of my mother's money forever," I said. "Eventually I'll have to do something. And I don't want to be the unsupportive baby daddy."
"Edward what do you want to do? What kind of career do you want?" she asked.
"You know what I want. I want to be a musician. Or a doctor. Because either can save a person's life," I said. Alice laughed.
"I know Edward. I know. So why don't you get of your lazy ass and go make something happen. Play at the cafe. Take an extra science course. Fucking do something, because if not, you're going to be everything you fear of being Edward."
"It's not that easy, Alice-"
"Yes, Edward. Yes it is. In fact, I'm going to go down to that little place . . . I forget what it's called, but the one that everyone plays at . . . you know the one I'm talking about, and get you a time that you can play and sing to the crowd. If you didn't know it, you're pretty damn amazing, Ed."
"Whatever, Alice. If this is what you want me to do then I'm all for it," I agreed. She leaned forward and hugged me.
"I only want the best for my bro," she said with a smile.
"Alice!" I head Bella's voice call up the stairs. "Alice!" She sang again.
Alice hopped off the bed and I followed her. Bella was just about to walk into the room when Alice jumped on her back. Bella carried her to the bed and then dropped her, and they started jumping on the mattress, laughing. I smiled as I watched. I walked over to Bella and caught her when she jumped off the bed.
I set her on her feet and then I caught Alice. They giggled and then holding hands they went downstairs. "Come on Edward," Bella called.
It was the most unusual routine, but they were Bella and Alice. It could be weirder.
So we all sat in the living room, just talking a little bit. Alice's day was boring. Since she'd just woken up a few hours ago, and then Bella and I told her about school. When the door bell rang, I stood up to answer it, Bella and Alice laughing.
I met the most unexpected thing.
"Edward, you look a mess. Tuck in your shirt," my mother said. I just stared at her. What the hell was she doing here?
"Mom, why are you here?" I said.
"Because I wanted to visit my son," she said. "Are you going to let me inside?" she asked. Her voice was soft, but I could see she was unhappy in her cold eyes. I let her in and then shut the door. She turned around to look at me. "Let your father in too."
"How many times have I told you that Garrett is not-"
"Edward," my father said. My biological father. Carlisle Cullen, the doctor, the actual good parent that I had was actually here. He was usually so busy that I couldn't go up to see him. But hey, it's nice to see him. "How have you been, son?" he asked.
"I'm pretty sure Mom told you," I said with a nasty bite she ignored.
"Well, she told me you were involved with a prostitute," he said with a serious face. I glared at my mother.
"You don't even know her!" I practically shouted. Alice and Bella came into the first room, looking at me with the utmost curiosity.
Carlisle smiled at the girls. "Hello? And who might you girls be?" he asked. Bella smiled.
"Dad, this is my best friend Alice, and that's Bella, my girlfriend." Bella smiled brightly and beautifully.
"Well, it's nice to meet you young ladies," he said to them. Alice giggled.
"Well," Bella said. "I can see where Edward gets his looks." But she looked directly at my mother. My mother smiled. "And just so you know, I'm not a prostitute, but a liberal artist at the girls' school, so I would appreciate it if you didn't call me that, but by my name, thank you."
I smiled.
My mother looked surprised.
My father was trying not to snicker.
Alice stared at Bella with an open mouth.
I walked over to Bella and put an arm around her shoulder, leading her into the living room. My parents, however reluctantly, followed as well.
"Edward," Alice whispered, elbowing me in my stomach. "What are they here for?" she asked. I shrugged. Bella and I sat together on the sofa, my parents taking their places across from each other in the room. My father seemed happy. My mother seemed like she wanted to claw Bella's eyes out. I just smiled contentedly. Bella didn't look so happy herself either.
"So, Edward, how did you meet a beautiful girl like Bella?" Carlisle said.
"She's Chief Swan's daughter," I said. Bella laughed.
"Ah," Carlisle said. "Different than I expected, but for you Edward, not so much. . ."
"Is that an engagement ring?!"
Everyone looked at Bella.
I wasn't sure what Bella was feeling, but I knew I was getting angry.
I took a second and then answered.
"Yes."
"YOU CAN'T PASS THE ELEVENTH GRADE, BUT YOU DECIDE YOU WANT TO MARRY A GIRL WHOSE STANDARDS ARE SO LOW?! OBVIOUSLY SHE'D USING YOU EDWARD!!" My mother was standing and she was yelling at the top of her lungs. I didn't look at her, only at Bella whose eyes were watery and tears were falling down her cheeks. She stood up and ran out of the living room, going upstairs. Alice ran after her and the door slammed. And for a few moments there was a lot of banging and crashing.
I stared at my mother. She stood there impatiently.
"Edward Anthony Cullen, have you looked at her? She's too thin, and she's got those piercings and she just doesn't seem like the conservative girl you should marry. And you're not getting married," Esme said. I narrowed my eyes. "She's trash Edward, complete trash. And you can't-"
"Who are you to tell me what I can and can't do? You don't even know Bella-"
"Yes I do, Edward. She's not only Chief Swans' daughter, but she's been in trouble, a lot of trouble. Drugs and prostitution in Arizona? Is that what you want your wife's background to be?" She asked me.
"Bella was never a prostitute. And she only got into all those things because her best friend died. Fucking died, and Bella didn't have anything else. And she's gone through even worse things than-"
"How worse?" She asked. "Did her dog die to, so she had to pick up a heroin addiction?"
"Bella was raped," I said flatly.
Esme just stared at me, and I could see the hurt she had in her heart for that subject. Because Rosalie had gone through the same shit, and my mother had helped her a lot with her grief. Rose had been fifteen. Bella was only twelve. And now she was going to have to eat her fucking words.
"Edward, you're lying. Either that, she's lying," Esme said with a quavering voice.
"She's not. Dad could look at her if you need facts. I know it's true. Because it was her brother. And he did it again, over summer.
"Over summer? How do you know that?" she asked.
"Because we got into a fight and she went home and when I went to go talk to her, she was tied up to her bed, bloody and starving. And if you think I'd lie to you about that mom, you're really low. She hasn't exactly had the best past, Mom. And if you would have stopped criticizing someone by the way they looked, you have known that, and you wouldn't have to eat your goddamn nasty words." I clenched my jaw and balled up my fists. I was so mad I wanted to hit something.
I dismissed myself, but my father came after me.
"Edward, did that really happen to her?" he asked me. His eyes were clouded.
I nodded. I didn't look him in the eyes. I just walked outside, standing there on the porch. Carlisle came after me, sighing.
"Why didn't you tell anyone? Why didn't she tell anyone?" he asked.
I took a deep breath and told him everything. The first story she'd told Alice and me, what happened over summer, what happened just a few days ago. Carlisle was alarmed through the entire thing. And then I sighed.
"So it was really nice for mom to call her names. Bella's strong, but she's human' she can only take so much, you know. And Bella's safe here, so safe, and she wants to ruin that," I said.
"Do you need any other help? Does she need a doctor?"
"I think things are past medical now, Dad."
He sighed. "I meant psychological," he said.
I shrugged. "I don't think she would want that." I looked out to the front yard, staring at the green blades of grass.
"Does Chief Swan know?"
I shook my head. "I don't think Bella wants him to know."
"But he has to. He's an officer. Has this escaped both of your minds?"
I shrugged. "Bella wanted to do it this way. She has private investigator people practically all over the state. They'll catch him."
Carlisle didn't say anything, but this was far from over. Very far.
We went back inside and everything was quiet upstairs. Just way too quiet, and I needed to find out what was wrong.
Carlisle followed me up the stairs, and I knocked on the door, before walking in. All of Bella's suitcases and bags were on the bed, and she was quickly filling them. I pulled her away from what she was doing and she thrashed against me, until she subsided and just sobbed. I held her tight, because that was the only thing I could do.
She cried hard, and Alice rubbed her back consolingly. Bella pulled back a little, looking up at me through her long, wet lashes.
"Do you think she's right?" she asked.
"No, Bella. She's always wrong. She will never know you like I do. I love you, remember?" I said to her.
She shook her head. "Your standards are too low for you to be in love with a girl-"
"Really? Because I can name a few low standard girls. More than a few. And believe me, you're not one of them. It's impossible, with the things you say and the things you do . . . I love you too much to let you go anyway," I said to her.
She just looked at me with a blank face. "But that's your mother."
"Yup. She is. But she's also an ass if you didn't know. It's because she doesn't get it. She said she fell in love with my father, Carlisle, but she didn't-"
"I did Edward. I did fall in love with your father." We all looked behind us, to where my mother was standing. Bella pulled out of my grasp and went back to packing. I caught her arm and held it. She looked up at me, but before we made eye contact, she looked away.
Esme continued. "But you don't get what happened. It' not as simple-"
"You cheated. Destroyed everything you could have ever had," I said, interrupting her.
She sighed. "Things between us were different then-"
"How much different? You were unhappy. We get it. But you don't have to rain on everybody's parade." I sighed and set my jaw.
"You think I'm such a bad person because I'm looking out for you," she said.
"But calling my girlfriend a whore is kind of out of line," I said. "You didn't have to do that."
"Well her-" she stopped in the middle of the sentence. "I'm sorry, you're right. I shouldn't judge Bella just because of the way she looks. And as it sounds, she's been through a lot, and that's not my place to say whether she's good enough for you, Edward."
I just looked at her. I didn't feel like dealing with her. I couldn't deal with her.
"So, what I'm trying to say is I'm sorry." Esme looked at Bella, then at Edward.
Bella looked at her feet. Esme took in a deep breath, she felt the rejection. And it was searing white pain, because my mother rarely to rejected. But then again, Bella was a rare girl.
"Well," my mother announced. "I'll be back later to see Magdeline. We're having dinner, so I'll see you later Edward." Her eyes bore into mine, and I could almost feel the hatred she had for my Bella. It didn't matter what she felt. Only what I felt, because Bella was mine.
Esme left and Carlisle followed her. The front door slammed and Bella flinched. Alice jumped on her before Bella could say anything. But Bella just sat on the edge of the bed.
"I can't believe her," she whispered.
"That's just how Esme is," Alice tried to comfort. Bella snorted.
"Yeah. And I'm the queen of England."
I chuckled.
Bella smiled.
Alice looked helpless. "Well, I want to go shopping a little bit before I have to go back to Australia. Do you mind if I leave you two alone for a little bit?"
Bella laughed. "Is that question even necessary?" she asked.
BPOV
"I mean really Alice," I told her. "Like we would ever decline alone time." Edward tossed her the keys to the Audi and then she happily danced out of the room. Edward came to sit next to me on the bed.
"Are you okay Bella?" His eyes were angry, and I understood why, but I didn't want him to be mad. Not right now when we had the entire house to ourselves. I pushed everything off the bed and pushed him down, crawling on top of him, taking off my shirt, and leaning down to kiss him. He picked me up off of him, carrying me over to desk.
So he had other ideas. Suggestions will be taken in the middle of the make out session.
He already had erection going, and it pressed so perfectly to where I was so very wet waiting. I held him close to me, indulging in the feeling of his body so hard against mine.
Edward ducked his head down to kiss my shoulder and breast, as I unbuckled his belt. He kicked off his shoes and then I took off his shirt, my hands running over the hard, taut, angry muscle underneath his skin. Fucking beautiful.
Edward ran his hands over my breasts, squeezing and teasing my nipples, making them hard. He unclasped my bra and breast fell out of it, and Edward latched his mouth on a nipple. I moaned and tugged on his hair, leaning back on my free hand to give him better access to my tits. He sucked on them, making me so much more wet. As he paid attention to my chest, I ran a hand between us to where I wanted to be touched. I lifted my skirt and then pushed my panties aside, rubbing at my clit and pushing a finger inside of me.
"Oh, fuck, Edward."
He chuckled against my neck, and pushed my hand away. I finished unbuckling his jeans and pushed them and his boxers to the floor with my feet. He stepped out of them, and I smiled at him. I looked at his cock, grabbing it with my hand. His stepped forward, and I guided it to my aching pussy. He buried himself in me, hitting that one special spot. I threw my head back, taking deep shallow breaths as he thrust into me, over and over again. I leaned back on my arms, just reveling in the feeling of Edward fucking me. I would never get used to feeling his cock so deep in me, his hands on my tits, his lips on my breasts. It was just something you never got used to. Ever.
"Oh, fuck, Bella," he groaned.
"Oh! Yes! Right there!" I chanted over and over again.
Edward kept thrusting into me, and I put my hand on his shoulder, gripping the strong muscle that flexed underneath my touch. My body was sticky with our sweat, and I was tightening around him, almost there.
"Come Bella," he said.
I moved my hips fervently with his, moved hard to he slammed to mine, hitting a new angle. I screamed and came, climaxing so good. Edward came with me, growling into my neck, impaling me with his thrusts. I was so tired all I wanted to do was eat. Weird thing to say, but it was true. I was in the mood for chocolate covered French fries, that was for sure.
My stomach growled and Edward laughed, as he pulled on his boxers and jeans, not bothering to zip them up. He helped me hop down from the desk, and I pulled on my panties and my "Make love no war" t shirt.
We went downstairs and Edward made us some sandwiches.
I ate, and I fell asleep on the couch, completely dead to the world.
EPOV
I put Bella upstairs when she fell asleep. She didn't even flinch. Right as I made it to the end of the stairs, Alice and Maggie came through the door, one shopping bag in hand.
"Get ready. You're singing tonight," she said. I just looked at her.
"I'm not in the mood," I said to her.
"I didn't ask if you were in the mood, I told you to get ready. And bring your guitar. Maggie will stay with Bella."
I trotted up the stairs, doing what she asked. I showered quickly and then dressed in a pair of skinny jeans, a plain white t shirt, and my converse. I wrote a note to Bella, telling her where I was, and that Maggie was downstairs. And then I wrote that I loved her. I kissed her forehead, and then I was in the car with Alice, over to the place where I would be performing. I'd only ever performed in front of her and Bella, so I was a little unsure about a crowd. I was nervous. Definitely nervous.
"Don't be nervous," Alice said to me. I laughed as I drove.
"Yeah. Says you, who isn't going to sing and play in front of a crowd."
"Get over it Edward. If you want to be a rock star, then lose the stage fright," Alice snapped.
"Hey. I said musician. I said nothing about rock star."
"Whatever."
There wasn't a really big crowd, but there were plenty of people. Maybe seventy or eighty. Possibly a hundred. Who knew? I sure didn't.
Alice handed me a list. "This is your set. You know them all. These are familiar songs. Just go with the flow. Apparently these people thrive on new talent."
I smiled at her. She smiled back.
I went up on stage, and sat down in the chair. I cleared my throat into the microphone.
"I, uh, I'm Edward Cullen. And yeah. Fist song is . . ." I looked at the list, and finished my sentence. "Smother me by the Used."
I played the song, and when I was finished I got a better response than I thought I would get. So I played on. Three more songs.
And then I got to the last song. "Uh, this is my last song. It's dedicated to Bella. My girlfriend. A Twist in My Story."
I played the small intro, singing the song. I closed my eyes and imagined Bella. Imagined her smile and her laughter.
Slow
down, the world isn't watching us break down
It's safe to say we
are alone now, we're alone now
Not a whisper, the only noise is
the receiver
I'm counting the seconds until you break the
silence
So please just break the silence
The whispers turn
to shouting
The shouting turns to tears
Your tears turn into
laughter
And it takes away our fears
So you see, this world
doesn't matter to me
I'll give up all I had just to breathe
The
same air as you till the day that I die
I can't take my eyes off
of you
And I'm longing, for words to describe how I'm
feeling
I'm feeling inspired
My world just flip turned upside
down
It turns around, say what's that sound
It's my heart beat,
it's getting much louder
My heart beat, is stronger than ever
I'm
feeling so alive, I'm feeling so alive
My whispers turn to
shouting
The shouting turns to tears
Your tears turn into
laughter
And it takes away our fears
So you see, this world
doesn't matter to me
I'll give up all I had just to breathe
The
same air as you till the day that I die
I can't take my eyes off
of you
I'm finally waking up, a twist in my story
It's time
I open up, and let your love right through me
I'm finally waking
up, a twist in my story
It's time I open up, and let your love
right through me
That's what you get
When you see your life in
someone else's eyes
That's what you get, that's what you get
So
you see, this world doesn't matter to me
I'll give up all I had
just to breathe
The same air as you till the day that I die
I
can't take my eyes off of you
This world doesn't matter to me
I'll
give up all I had just to breathe
The same air as you till the day
that I die
I can't take my eyes off of you

I was standing in the back of the room, watching Edward as he blushed on stage as he dedicated the song to me. I smiled and my heart soared, I needed to tell him that I loved him back.
Maggie had been with me, but she left to order some coffee.
When Edward finished the song, tears were streaming off my face. I stood up and clapped, but before I could open my mouth to scream that I loved him, along with the other eighty girls that were here, I firm hand grabbed my arm. I turned to look at who it was, and into James eyes I looked.
I jumped out of my skin.
"Here," he said, handing me a piece of paper and a pen. "Tell your family that you love them. Give the paper to the waiter, and then go out side. I'll be there to pick you up. If you tell anybody, your little pixie friend and that boy you call a lover will die. Right now. Understand?"
I was shaking and quickly, I did what I was told. I couldn't let Alice and Edward died because I didn't follow directions. I couldn't.
So I began writing.
Thanks for everything Alice. Thank you for letting me live with you Maggie. Thank you for love me Edward. I love each and every one of you. I love you Edward. Don't forget me.
I folded up the paper and then I went to the counter, giving the sheet to the barista. Along with twenty buck.
"Please, can you give this to Edward Cullen? He was the one that was just performing. And tell him that Seth needs to know I'm gone. Can you do that?" I said with a smile, so James wouldn't think anything was wrong. The male barista nodded and I thanked him, walking out of the café.
I quickly made sure I had my ring on, the one that would track where I was, and then James escorted me into a Mercedes, and I sat next to a big man with a gun in his hand.
"You didn't believe me when I told you that I would make you mine," James said. "Did you?"
I didn't say anything.
"You're so pretty. I'm glad you wore a jacket. It's cold where we're going," he said.
"Where are we going?" I asked. I held back my tears.
"You'll like it there," he said. "Don't worry."
I shivered and then the big man wrapped a blindfold around my eyes.
Then I cried.

I saw Bella in the back of the room. She was smiling so big; it made me feel so happy to see her like that. She's just so beautiful. Alice hugged me, and I talked to her for a minute and then I walked through the crowd. It was a good feeling to know that I had done something good.
When I got to the back, I couldn't find Bella. But the dude at the counter called me over.
"Yeah?" I said to him.
"A brunette asked me to give this to you. She said Seth needed to know she was gone," he said.
My heart dropped a million miles, and I opened the note.
I read it.
It was like she was dying. She couldn't die. She wouldn't die. It was impossible.
"Edward!" It was Alice's voice. "She's gone! Where is she?"
"I don't know!"
I took out my phone and called Seth.
"Yeah?" he answered.
"What the fuck do you mean yeah?" I said into the phone. "She's fucking gone!"
"What the hell are you talking about?" he asked, his voice was frantic.
"Gone! He fucking took her! What the hell are you doing?"
"I'm getting ready for my round! Paul was on the round right now. He told me she was at that café."
"She was. That's where she took her from," I said impatiently. These assholes weren't doing their jobs. What the fuck? Did I have to do fucking everything.
"Shit. Well-"
Seth was cut off and I heard muffling and screaming, a different voice in the back ground. And then the line was dead.
Okay, so I left you guys with a cliffhanger. Please don't hate me. I did it for a reason, so don't shoot me in the head.
