(Bella's POV)
I peered out from the curtain, the butterflies flying in my stomach.
"That's a lot of people." I whispered to Jessica. Tonight was opening night of my annual performances and needless to say, I was extremely nervous.
"It's it great." She smiled but once she saw my face she got a frustrated look. "Don't be so nervous! You've done this hundreds of times. Now come over here, you've ruined your make up again." She dragged my hand towards a dresser and picked up the eyeliner. Sitting my down, she began to fix the mistakes.
"There. Perfect once more." She closed the lid and placed it down on the table. "You look fabulous." I smiled and gave her a hug. I was wearing the same outfit I usually wore. A black strapless dress that was knee length, a chain belt, silver choker with an onyx encrusted inside, silver arm warmers that went up to my elbows, and black knee high boots. My hair was straightened and put into a bun with a few stray hairs lying by my face. I was also wearing a headset for when I was dancing.
"Thanks Jessica, wish me luck." The lights dimmed out in the crowd and it became pitch dark. Silently I snuck on stage and got into my starting position. My head was bowed and eyes closed. As the music started, I waited until my cue. The blue tinted spotlight shined on me as I began to sing.
Impossible by Shontelle
I remember years ago
Someone told me I should take
Caution when it comes to love
I did, I did
And you were strong and I was not
My illusion, my mistake
I was careless, I forgot
I did
And now when all is done
There is nothing to say
You have gone and so effortlessly
You have won
You can go ahead tell them (different colored lights began to stream across the stage as I began to move around)
Tell them all I know now
Shout it from the roof tops
Write it on the sky line
All we had is gone now
Tell them I was happy
And my heart is broken
All my scars are open
Tell them what I hoped would be
Impossible, impossible
Impossible, impossible (I put my hands out into the crowd)
I saw the door open and paused mid-performance. I stood frozen as I recognized the newcomers.
The Cullen's were here.
Well isn't that a little cliffy. You'll just have to read the next chapter to find out what happens. Everyone be alert tomorrow because that's when the next chapter's coming. I know it's a short chapter but I really am starting to have trouble thinking of how to write this. Just to let you guys know, I do have plenty of other story ideas and I will try my best to get all of them posted and finished by the end of this school year. Most definitely by the beginning of next years.
Thanks for reading and please review!
