AU-AH. Slightly OOC. Bella Swan had always had a simple existence. School, work, and her music. She no longer had any living family members and the band was all she had left. That is all she had and that was all she ever wanted. After years of toiling away her and her band mates get their big break with Volterra records. The famous and dashing Carlisle Cullen and his equally famous and dashing son Emmett take them under their wings, knowing that their band Twilight is the next big thing. They had made their big break. Soon enough the Cullen’s fall in love with the lovely shy girl from small town Washington, well all but one Cullen. Edward. When Bella met Edward they both felt sparks. But that only lasted until Edward opened his mouth. Edward Cullen left the music business in his past to move on to a life in the film, but was that what he really holds in his heart. Can this girl from Forks help him find out what it really is that he wants? More importantly in the hard world of Hollywood can they have a happily ever after? Especially when Edward’s past comes back to haunt them.
From Chapter four:
“What?” I asked him wanting to know what he found humorous.
“Nothing.” He said taking another sip of his wine.
“No. What?” I pressed. He had been so standoffish I wanted to know why now he would suddenly find the conversation at hand laughable.
“It just sound cliché don’t you think?”
“What does?”
“The over told discovery story…it was out of the blue…unexpected…”
“It was.”
“I’m not doubting that it was. However god knows the world doesn’t really need another band.”
“Edward…” Esme tired to intercede.
“What?” He asked his mother.
“Don’t be rude.” She said quietly.
“I’m being honest.” He said bluntly. “There are far too many bands out there already as far as I’m concerned, and each is less inventive in their ‘sound’ as the next.”
“Excuse me?” I asked getting very deffesive.
“Look I’m not saying that you aren’t very talented at what you do, but…”
“Have you even heard us?”
“No.”
“Then you talk pretty big for someone who knows absolutely nothing about us.” I stood up. Unable to sit and listen to him any longer. “Carlisle, Esme, thank you for a lovely evening. It was a pleasure meeting you.” I said to Esme before turning to Emmett. “Em. Do you think you could drive me home now, before I do something I might regret.” I didn’t even wait for him to answer I just left the room and headed out to the car.
