Pt. 8 In love with you!
We all piled into Emmett's jeep. Alice and Rose were smiling, hell everyone was. "Okay so where are we going?" Nobody said anything. I sighed and leaned my head against the window. I was so used to being the only one who didn't know where we were going but sometimes it got a little annoying. I wouldn't dare hurt their feelings by saying anything, but sometimes I just want to help plan something.
"Bella?" The voice of Jasper spoke to me.
"Hmm?" I answered without looking.
"Your going to love it sweetheart." I looked behind me and gave him a small smile. I took a chance and looked at Edward who was in his own world.
Fifteen minutes later we were pulling up to St. Mary's Pier. I used to love this place when I was a kid. Mom used to tell me dad loved to come here when they were pregnant with me. As we all walked along the walkway I noticed lots of people were walking up to a white tent. We all were headed to the tent and I wondered what was going on. I knew they head symphony's here all the time. But Rose and Emmet weren't classical music type people.
Walking inside I noticed two pianos and chairs circling both. I looked at the gang who all had huge smiles on their faces looking at me. "What?" Nobody said anything they just pointed behind me. I turned and almost fell over. There holding his arms out for me was none other than Sir Elton John himself. I squealed and ran at him and laughed as he twirled me around.
"How is my Bell?" His fatherly like tone didn't escape me and I smiled.
"Oh El, I'm so good. Come you must meet my friends?" I pulled him along to my friends.
"Guys meet my very very good friend and amazing pianist, Elton John. El meet Rose, Emmett, Jasper, Alice, and Edward." They all said their hellos. I smiled as Jasper and Edward looked ready to piss their pants. "So not that I'm complaining but what is my mentor doing here?"
He smiled at me. "Well I heard you finally took my advice and came home. So I had to come visit and I thought why not do a small concert. Your mom and I have been in touch since you can't seem to let pretty boy over there go to pick up a phone and call." He teased and I blushed which sent everyone into hysterics. "Anyway she got your friends together to get you here and I was hoping I could get my favorite pianist to accompany me."
I looked up at him thinking surely he was joking. I haven't done a concert in about 9 months. "It's been awhile since I have done a show but I would be honored." Everyone got excited then.
He hugged me. "Good your friends are on your left side front row. Your black piano is there. I brought my white." He smiled as he took off.
I looked at my friends. "Thank you guys. I love you all." They hugged me as we took our place. As I sat down I looked to my left and saw my mom beside Edward.
"Hello everyone how are we all this evening?" Everyone answered. "Great! Now I would like to introduce a very dear friend of mine. As young as she is, she has become one of the world's most talented female pianist and I say female because if I didn't then I was assume she was better than I and well.." The crowd roared as did I. "Hey if the shoe fits." He laughed as the crowd cracked up again. "Anyway she was born and raised here in Forks and I call her my personal hero. Miss Isabella Swan." I stood and curtsied as the crowd clapped.
I leaned into my mic. "Thank you for that. I am easily embarrassed and Elton has earned no cookies for his visit." "HEY!" We all laughed. "See you all see the sweet and talented musician, he is that. But I have seen a man who can put away some food at a footie game." He leaned his head back in laughter. "LIES ALL LIES! I taught you well grasshopper." I giggled and looked at the crowd. I saw Edward wink at me. I smiled.
"Okay Bell lets show these people a good time." I smiled.
"I couldn't have said it better myself. What shall we do first?"
"I was thinking of letting the crowd decide." As if on cue the crowd starts yelling out songs as Elton and I do our tinkling on the pianos together. He started into Rocket Man. I smiled and gladly joined in. The crowd clapped as we sang in harmony. I took a chance and looked at my mom and my friends. I saw a woman and a man talking with Edward. He knows everybody. We finished and bowed and I looked at Edward and saw him and the people where clapping and smiling at me. I smiled.
"Hey El lets do 'Don't Go Breaking My Heart' Bella Swan style." I grinned.
"Why love I think that's a brilliant idea." I started banging the keys showing my true talent. We had a blast on that song. We did a few of my songs and a few more of his.
Something told me to do my dad's song. "Ladies and gentlemen. If you look on the front row in the brown sweater is a beautiful woman whom I call mom is here." The crowd clapped. "She has been my savior and my best friend. You see my dad died when I was a toddler. She raised me to be a strong woman. I would not be here tonight if it wasn't for her love…" I choked up and kept tinkling on the piano. "…and her nurturing. She is the most outstanding person and tonight I want to thank her for everything she has done and will do. I also want to thank my dad." The tears flowed. "I know he's in heaven and I want to thank him for picking the perfect woman to be my mother. This song is for them." I started into the song.
One Day You Will : by Lady Antebellum
You feel like you're falling backwards
Like you're slippin' through the cracks
Like no one would even notice
If you left this town and never came back
You walk outside and all you see is rain
You look inside and all you feel is pain
And you can't see it now
[Chorus]
But down the road the sun is shining
In every cloud there's a silver lining
Just keep holding on (just keep holding on)
And every heartache makes you stronger
But it won't be much longer
You'll find love, you'll find peace
And the you you're meant to be
I know right now that's not the way you feel
But one day you will
You wake up every morning and ask yourself
What am I doing here anyway
With the weight of all those disappointments
Whispering in your ear
You're just barely hanging by a thread
You wanna scream but you're down to your last breath
And you don't know it yet
[Repeat Chorus]
Find the strength to rise above
You will
Find just what you're made of, you're made of
[Repeat Chorus]
One day you will
Oh one day you will
As I closed the song out I heard sniffling. I stood up and walked over to my mom and hugged her. "I love you mama. Thank you for giving me the best life a girl could have."
She sobbed. "Oh my sweet baby. I love you too. It was my pleasure to watch you grow into the beautiful woman here today." We pulled apart and wiped our faces. "I also feel like I have to thank 5 of the greatest people I have ever had the chance of knowing. Alice, Jasper, Em, and Rose, you guys keep me grounded and normal, well as normal as can be with Emmett." "Hey now!" Everybody laughed. "I love you guys thank you."
I turned to Edward. "Edward, you have been a Godsend to me. My shoulder to cry on, the one who keeps me from falling or from the shopping trips I hate so badly." It was now or never. I had been wanting to tell him I just never knew how. This is the perfect opportunity. "You have been the prefect boyfriend. I love you." He gasped and the looks on my mother and friends faces was pure awe and joy. He jumped up and his lips crashed into mine. I had forgotten where we were till I heard the clapping and whistling. He pulled away and looked into my eyes.
"Isabella Swan I am so in love with you. I wanted to tell you I just didn't know how." He kissed me one last time before pulling away and sitting down. I turned and sat down at my piano with the biggest grin on my face. I couldn't for the life of me find the word to describe how I was feeling at that moment. "Finale?" I asked Elton.
"Yes my lovely. We have been playing for 4 hours." WHAT!!! We piano battled till we jumped into 'Another Saturday Night' by Cat Stevens.
As the night came to a close we said farewell to Elton after he promised the crowd another concert soon. It was a tearful goodbye for me. Elton told me to suck it up and to call. I laughed and kissed his cheek promising I would.
Edward took my and led me over to the couple I saw him talking to. "Bella I would like for you to meet my parents Carlisle and Esme Cullen. Mom, dad meet Bella Swan." I was pulled into a hug by Esme. I smiled and hugged her back.
"Bella it is a pleasure to meet you." Carlisle spoke. I looked at both of them after pulled back some from Esme.
"No sir. The pleasure is all mine. Edward speaks highly of you." I smiled as Edward blushed.
"Bella dear we all need to get together and do a lunch or supper or something." Carlisle put his arm around her to calm her down. I laughed.
"That will be great. Just let Edward know when and what I need to bring." They beamed.
"Oh Edward she's pefect!" Esme squealed and hugged me again. I laughed and blushed.
"Okay mom Bella is probably tired and stop embarrassing me." We smiled and exchanged goodbyes.
Tonight was everything and more, I thought as Edward and I went home in love.
