DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING ONCE AGAIN. STEPHENIE MEYER OWNS IT ALL. AND I KNOW THAT THE IDEA IS A LITTLE USED BUT I FIGURED: WHAT THE HELL.
KAREOKE WITH THE CULLENS'
Jessica walked up to me at school on Friday during lunch. "Hey Bella, hey Edward." She said "Hello Jessica" Edward said politely. She smiled flirtatiously.
"Um…" she said. "I'm having a party tonight and, like, I was like wondering if you wanted to like go." I shuddered. There were way too many "likes" in that sentence for my taste.
I glanced up at Edward to see what he though. His eyes were glued to mine, obviously to see what I thought. I nodded. He looked back up at Jessica.
He gave her a dazzling smile and said "Sure Jessica, we would love to come." She beamed. "YAY!" she squealed. "And of course your brother, sister, Rosalie, and Jasper can come too. She looked like she thought she was the luckiest person in the world to have all five of the Cullen's' at her party.
At 10:00 that night Edward picked me up in the Vanquish and took me to Jessica's house where we met the rest of his family, save Esme and Carlisle.
I walked up to the door and rang the bell. By the way she answered, I was willing to bet that she had been waiting at the front window for us to arrive. "HI!!!!!" she exclaimed as she opened the door, "I'm sooooo glad you , like, made it" she said looking only at Edward. Edward only smiled and nodded, his arm tightening around my waist as he(more likely than not) heard someone think something he didn't like.
We all stepped into the house, and I swear I heard every boy's jaw drop. I looked down at myself, feeling very self-conscious. Maybe I shouldn't have let Rose and Alice kidnap me.
They had dressed me up. A lot. I was wearing dark blue hip hugger jeans. I had on a light blue tank too and a dark blue jean jacket over it. I also had on blue ballet flats. It was really simple and it looked like I just pulled it out of my closet. They had also put a little blush on my cheeks and light blue eye shadow on my eyes. Shiny pink lip gloss completed my look.
Alice had black skinny jeans and a pink tank top with black ballet flats.
Rosalie had a short red dress over dark skinny jeans with red chunky high heels. They each had a fair amount of make up on. Rose's hair was in blond rigs down her back. Alice's was jelled into spikes and mine was just down in waves down my back. I knew that compared to those two I was nothing.
Just as I thought that I felt Edward's cold breath by my ear saying "You are so gorgeous tonight. You look breath-taking…ravishing." I felt a shiver go down my spine. God this boy is amazing. He always knows just what to say.
When Jessica realized that the attention was no longer on her, but on us, she immediately attempted to get it back on her.
"Attention! Attention everyone! Now then, we have something very special planned for tonight." She paused here for dramatic affect. "KAREOKE!!!" she yelled. An exited buzz went around the crowd. She went on "Ok. I have a karaoke machine over here" she pointed to a little stage "And I also have a wide variety of music. So what I am going to do is, like, pick names from a bag to see who goes first."
She pulled out a little bag that obviously had papers in it. She drew the first paper, looked at it, and called out "EDWARD Cullen!!!!" Wow I thought. What a big surprise. Edward gave me a sheepish grin, but made his way up to the stage. He took a minute and went through the book of song that she had before choosing one. Jessica nodded and put the CD in the player and pushed play. He faced the T.V but was really looking directly at me.
I turned to Alice who was grinning like a crazy person. I narrowed my eyes at him, giving him a look that clearly said what the hell do you have up your sleeve? He just smiled.
I heard music before he started singing, but I couldn't quiet place them. Then he opened his mouth.
She's my kind of rain
Like love in a drunken sky
She's confetti falling
Down all night
He stared into my eyes, never looking away.
She sits quietly there
Black water in a jar
Says, Baby why are you
Trembling like you are
So I wait
And I try
I confess like a child
Like a child. Yah right.
She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain
She's the sun set shadows
She's like Rembrandt's light
She's the history that's made at night
She's my lost companion
She's my dreaming tree
Together in this brief eternity
Summer days, winter snows
She's all things to behold
Brief eternity. More like forever eternity.
She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain
So I wait
And I try
I confess all my crimes
She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain
She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti falling down all night
She's my kind of rain
She's my kind of rain
Oh, rain on me
She's my kind of rain
I had tears. Oh my God. He is the sweetest thing to ever grace the planet. I love him so much.
He came walking up to me. "Well" he asked. I swallowed deeply. "What did I ever do to deserve you?" I said. "You are the best thing that ever happened to me. I love you" One tear cascaded down my face. He wiped it away with his thumb before kissing me deeply.
Jessica walked back onto the little stage and took the mic from the stand. "Wow." She said. "Edward, that was like wow." It looked like every one was speechless. I blushed. He smirked.
"OK" she continued "Next up is…"
A/N: Guess you'll just have to wait and see. Let me know what you think. The song is by Tim McGraw and is called She's my kind of rain. He owns all the rights to that song. I thought I'd fit with the "You're my heroin" thing. Rain…heroin.
