"BOLD" – Bella singing

"ITALICS" – Valery singing

"BOLD AND ITALICS" – Bella and Valery singing

Bella? I looked to Jasper frantically. He stiffened, hearing that all too familiar voice. He looked down to me, the same franticness in his eyes. Then 'Izzy Marie' walked out . . . She was exactly like the old Bella . . . How could I not see this!

"I can't decide.

You have made it harder just,

To go on and,

Why-hy?

All the possibilities,

Well I was wrong."

"That's what you get,

When you let your heart win.

Oh, oh uh-oh oh.

That's what you get,

When you let your heart win.

Oh, whoa.

I drowned out all my sense,

With the sound of its beating.

And that's what you get when,

You let your heart win,

Whoa oh, oh."

We didn't listen much after that, we were just gaping at the stranger that bare the name "Bella Swan". What happened to her?

We walked out of that place after the concert, shocked.

"We need to talk to her." I said firmly.

"Agreed. But I'm not sure I should. Edward and Bella couldn't possibly forgive me for . . . that." Jasper said solemnly. Unfortunately, he blamed himself for Bella leaving. It wasn't his fault he had given into his instincts. Even I had trouble.

"Okay, if you say so. But it's not your fault!" I pecked him on the cheek and left.

Izzy's POV

After finishing up, Valery and I went to our dressing rooms. "Well, I haven't seen anyone I know yet . . . thank God." Except for Mike . . . the dude was a freakazoid. . .

She smiled. "As long as you're not hurt, I'm good too. . . While we're still here, how 'bout seeing Seth? I mean, it has been years, y'know."

I smirked. I knew she had a crush on the guy. No use in hiding it. "You mean, Seth with the cute face and to-die-for eyes?" I taunted.

Valery turned her back on me, but I knew she was blushing. "Wh-what are you talking about?"

"You know what I'm talking about, Val." I smirked wider if possible.

"Sh-shut up!" Valery started hiding her face in a book, obviously embarrassed beyond comprehension.

"Don't make me do it." I said in a sing-song voice.

". . . You wouldn't dare."

I sucked in a breath, with a smug grin. She always did it to me. It was time to pay the piper.

"If there's a price for rotten judgment,"

I sang, laughing and rolling on the floor mentally

"I guess you've already won that."

"Oh God, kill me now. . ." She groaned, knocking her head against the wall. "No man is worth the aggravation." She said blankly. I had the sudden urge to make her sing no matter what. It was time for a little Bella therapy.

"That's ancient history,"

She sighed. "Been there, done that."

"Who'd ya think you're kiddin'?

He's the earth and heaven to ya,

try to keep it hidden.

Hon I can see right through ya.

Girl you can't conceal it,

I know how you're feelin'

who you're thinkin' of!"

"Ugh, no chance, no way, I won't say it (or sing it) no, no." By the end of her line, she was starting to get the beat of it. Just a little more . . .

"You swoon, you sigh,

Why deny it?

Oh, oh!"

"It's too cliché, I won't say I'm in looooove." Valery rolled her eyes.

I grabbed her wrists and pulled her up, while plugging the iPod into the iHome and turning the music up full blast. Luckily the walls were soundproof. I started to sway, hoping she would join in soon.

"Shoo doo,

Shoo doo,

Ooh!"

Valery sighed and mumbled, "Fine, I'll join in. Don't get a kick out of this, though. It's just a song."

Ha ha! Victory!

"I thought my heart had learned its lesson.

It feels so good when you start out.

My head is screaming get a grip girl!

Unless you're dying to cry your heart out!"

"You keep on denying,

Who you are and how you're feeling,

Baby, we're not buying.

Hon we saw ya hit the ceiling!

Face it like a grown-up—"

"I'm seventeen, Izzy." Valery reminded me before going back to the song.

"When you gonna own up,

That you got,

Got,

Got it baaaad?"

"Oh, no chance,

No way,

I won't say it no, no!"

"Give up,

Give in!

Check the grin,

You're in love."

It was true, she was grinning. But after I sang that part, she went back to scowling and sulking about it.

"This scene won't play!

I won't say I'm in looooooooooooove!"

By the time she finished her part, Valery was pacing across the room with me showing up in her face all the while.

"You're doin' flips!

Read my lips,

You're in love!"

"You're way off base,

I won't say it!

Get off my case,

I won't say it!"

"Now don't be proud,

It's okay you're in love."

"Oh,

At least out loud,

I won't say I'm in. . ."

She sighed, sitting back down and twirling a lock of hair around her finger. "Love."

I made her scoot over and sat with her, hugging her like she did with me in the plane. "Aw, you know I was just joshing around."

"Yeah, whatever." She grumbled.

"But we can actually go over the La Push if you want. . . And I won't say anything to Seth, I swear!" I crossed my heart.

Valery eyed me, but sighed once more. "Fine. We'll be around here for a while anyway."

"All right!" I punched a fist in the air, and grabbed Valery by the hand. "Let's go then! Don't want to waste any time."

I couldn't wait to see Jacob again. He was just as helpful as Valery was during Edward's absence, and encouraged Valery and I to do what we wanted.

Yep, Jacob was the one I was intending to see.

Not the past I didn't remember.

Kei: All righty! Just a bit of some Valery for you all! I hope you like her, because she's a friend . . . And she can really sing. Review please!
