What Doesn't Kill You (Makes You Stronger)

Chapter 2 Cowboy Casanova

It was almost eight, the club was filling fast, I hadn't see or heard from Jasper or assward since this afternoon. I was just putting the finishing touches to my outfit, my sense's are already heightened from nerves and I jump when Nev shouts out "BELL'S, T minus 5 minutes till start". Nev was Jess's closest friend and from the outside looking in you would think they were dating. "Thanks Nev" I called back out to him.

I double check myself in the mirror to make sure everything is in place. I'm wearing my hipster/bootcut jeans with an emerald green sequined halter top that Jess brought for me for my birthday last year, for shoes I decided on my 5" emerald green and black lace mary jane's, my hair is half pinned up and half down with a little bit of eye make up and lip gloss. I'm done!

As I head towards the stage I see Jess coming towards me. "Hey Bella, ummm I'm just letting you know now that the guys from earlier are here and we're asking where you are, I told them you would be on stage shortly, they looked really confused when I said that, OH! and they brought friends with them too. Anyway you need to get out there and knock 'em dead girl and I'll see you at break time."

"Fuck! This so can not be happening to me right now FUUUCCCKKKK!," ok breathe don't panic, deep breaths in out, breathe in and out.

Right! Time for big girl panties and a whole lot an attitude. I push open the doors to the right of the stage and see the guys waiting for me. "Right lets rock this joint!" I say to them

Ooh, oh, yeah yeah

Oooh yeah yeah

I need a tough lover, yeah yeah yeah

I need a, a tough lover, woo

I need a, a tough lover, yeah yeah yeah

A tough lover, ooh yeah

When he kisses me, I get that thrill

When he does that wiggle I won't keep still

I wanna a tough lover (yeah, yeah)

A tough lover (woo) I need a tough lover (yeah, yeah)

Tough lover (hum, hum)

The seven sisters got nothing on him

I'm talking about a lover who's fast as the wind

Everyone will talk about how he got me fixed

It ain't voodoo, it's just that twist

He will be the greatest lover that ever come to pass

Don Juan ain't got the half the chance

He's a tough lover (yeah, yeah)

A tough lover (woo)

He's a tough lover (yeah, yeah)

A tough lover (oh oh)
Hey, hey, heyah

He'll make me laugh, he'll make me cry

He'll be so tough he'll make Venus come alive

He'll do anything that he wants to do

Step on Jesse James's blue suede shoes, yeah

A tough lover (yeah, yeah)

A tough lover (woo)

A tough lover (yeah, yeah)

A tough lover (hey yeah, yeah yeah)

A tough lover (yeah, yeah)

A tough lover (yeah, yeah)

A tough lover (oh oh)

I open my eyes to see and hear the crowd whistling, screaming and clapping, I look out to the audience and spot them standing in the middle next to the bar their eyes and mouths wide open in shock.

The first pair of eyes I connect with belong to Jasper, the empath. I know the perfect song for him I knew from what little Edward and Alice had told me that he was from Texas a southern country boy, Alice's cowboy. I knew then just what my next song was going to be.

"This next song is by one of my favorite country artists Carrie Underwood - Cowboy Casanova" As I said the name of the song I looked straight at Jasper.

The music started up and I started to sway my hips to the beat of the music.

"You better take it from me

That boy is like a disease

You run and you try and you're tryin' to hide

And you're wondering why you can't get free

He's like a curse, he's like a drug

You'll get addicted to his love

You wanna get out, but he's holdin' you down

'Cause you can't live without one more touch

He's a, a good time, cowboy Casanova

Leaning up against the record machine

He looks like a cool drink of water

But he's candy-coated misery

He's the devil in disguise, a snake with blue eyes

And he only comes out at night

Gives you feelings that you don't want to fight

You better run for your life

I see that look on your face

You ain't hearing what I say

So I'll say it again, 'cause I been where you been

And I know how it ends, you can't get away

Don't even look in his eyes

He'll tell you nothing but lies

And you wanna believe but you won't be deceived

If you listen to me and take my advice

He's a, a good time, cowboy Casanova

Leaning up against the record machine

He looks like a cool drink of water

But he's candy-coated misery

He's the devil in disguise, a snake with blue eyes

And he only comes out at night

Gives you feelings that you don't want to fight

You better run for your life

Run run away, don't let him mess with your mind

He'll tell you anything you wanna hear

He'll break your heart, it's just a matter of time

But just remember

He's a, a good time, cowboy Casanova

Leaning up against the record machine

He looks like a cool drink of water

But he's candy-coated misery

He's the devil in disguise, a snake with blue eyes

And he only comes out at night

Gives you feelings that you don't want to fight

You better run for your life

Oh, you better run for your life

Oh, you better run for your life

As I sang, I danced, and looked, and danced, just for Jasper. I sang the song to the audience but the meaning of the song was all for him, all the way there, but just out of reach.

As I sang that last note I looked straight at him with a little smirk, to show him and the rest of them that I'm not the same girl they used to know.

The next song was going to prove it.
