You Make Me Feel Alive Again (Twilight Story) Ch 5: Dancing Queen

DISCLAIMER: These characters do not belong to me…they are all from the Twilight books which were written by the wonderfully talented Stephenie Meyer.

Note to Readers: The title I thought was appropriate for what the characters do in this chapter. Everyone is going to a club to “shake their groove thing” so to speak. Plus I just think of the song “Dancing Queen” from ABBA when I think of dancing. I just really love that song. Plus the movie ‘Mama Mia’ is like the greatest movie ever! I hope you all enjoyed my last chapter that was close to 3000 words. It took me a couple days to write it. It was 6 pages on my Microsoft Word document. I hope to make this one just as long – hope you leave a review for me!

End of Last Chapter:

“Are we all ready to leave?” Edward asked.

“Yep. Let’s go dancing!” Em said excitedly as he grabbed Rose’s hand as we left for the club.

This was going to be a really fun night.

ALICE’S POV

I am so excited to go dancing! I never thought I would get a chance to do this ever again. After the whole Volturi scare, I thought that my long life was over. But now that we get another chance to live and be a family again – we need to make sure we do everything that we never got a chance to do before. We need to take this second chance seriously.

Jasper and I are currently in my Porsche as we are riding to the club to go dancing with the family. I was shocked on how Edward was being so cool about this evening. Usually, Edward is very classy and very solemn but ever since Bella has come into his life – Edward has become a different man. He is more relaxed and happy. I am so grateful for my new sister and best friend.

I pulled into ‘Aroma’ which was the club we all were going to. It is a small and very exclusive club. Only about 3% of the people who try to get in actually succeed. But since we are the Cullen’s – we of course get in with no problem. It is out favorite club to go to when we have extra time. It is small, has private booths, great music, a bar with almost anything you could ever want, and cute bartenders.

I pulled into a parking spot and Jasper and I both exited the car. “Alice, love, you need to calm down some. If you need assistance on that, let me know. But you’re giving me a migraine.” Jasper said as he held my hand and we walked over to Edward’s car. “Sorry Jazzy. I’ll try and tone it down for you.” I replied as Edward exited his car and Bella followed soon after. Em and Rose both took the jeep and would be here in a minute.

“Hey Bella, are you excited?” I asked my sister.

“Very. I can’t wait to see the inside of this club. It looks really nice.” She replied.

“This is a very high class place. They don’t have any of those dirty gross people inside. It’s all upper class people. But don’t worry – they are not those Paris Hilton sleazy whore kind of upper class people. They are the well behaved.” I said as Jasper put his arm around my waist.

“Good because those Hilton girls are pretty wild.” Bella said as Edward walked over to her and put his arm around her waist and smiled at her. Just then Em and Rose came over to us.

“Hey ya’ll. Let’s get inside and start to Par-tay!” Em said excitedly.

“Yeah let’s shake our groove thing.” Rose said playfully as we all walked to the door.

We got to the entrance with hundreds of people waiting outside hoping that some miracle will strike them and they would have a chance of getting in. But knowing the big beefy bouncer Hank, the little jealous whores were going to have to wait for some rich slick to come drag one of their boney asses into the club where he would proceed to drown them in liquor and then take them home and have his way with them. It was the cycle of this club. Thank God my family was not a part of it.

Hank immediately saw us and waved us in. All the people around booed and I smiled coyly at them in response. Jasper then sent a wave of calm to the crowd and they all immediately looked peaceful and continued to pick up their conversations they were having before my family had arrived.

Jasper and I walked into the club to see the same old scene. Booths lined the walls as strobe lights bounced off the walls. A hip and retro DJ played ‘I Kissed a Girl’ by Katy Perry loudly as groups of people grinded on the dance floor. I shook my head in disgust.

Edward and Bella led us to our usual booth in the VIP lounge and we all sat down. The waitress, Carrie walked over and asked, “Hello, It is nice to see you all again. I notice you have a new girl here. Who are you?” Bella smiled shyly and said, “I’m Bella. I’m Edward’s wife.”

“Well it’s nice to meet you Bella. What can I get you guys?” Carrie asked.

“We’ll have some Cokes please, Carrie.” Edward said answering for all of us.

“I’ll be back soon with them.” Carrie replied as she left.

“Do you guys come here a lot?” Bella asked.

“We used too. Just sometimes to loosen up. You only have to be 16 to get in but 21 to drink. Since we are playing 18 year olds we just come here to dance to some good music and talk. It’s really fun.” Rose said. “Plus, it gives a chance to get out of the house besides school.” I added.

“Those are good reasons. I like it here. I’m glad the DJ at least has good music taste. What is this song called?” Bella asked.

“It’s called Mad by Ne-Yo. I love this song too. I heard it on the radio last week. I actually got it on iTunes. I can put it on your iPod if you want.” I added.

“Yeah thanks Alice.” She added.

“So what’s the schedule tonight?” Emmett asked excitedly.

“Well we are going to be here until midnight because that’s when it starts getting crazy. But Emmett, you are not allowed to play with the drunks.” Edward warned my brother.

“Play with the drunks?” Bella asked confused.

“Well Bella, Emmett here thinks that it is funny to play with the drunk humans.” Edward said.

“What does he do?” Bella asked intrigued by Emmett’s ‘playful’ ways.

“He usually dares them to fights or something, but he always cheats and wins. Then the drunken humans get angry at Em for outsmarting them and then they cause a scene. We usually end up leaving shortly after that – and usually not by choice.” Edward said.

“Sounds like Em.” She replied. Em laughed and said, “It’s just too funny to see them act like they are not all drunk when really they can’t walk a straight line to save their little frail lives.”

“Well I am still happy to share the drunkenness with all of you.” Bella said.

“Bella – vampires can’t get drunk.” Rosalie said.

“You know what I mean, Rosalie.” Bella replied.

“Yes I do Bella. But don’t worry; well make sure the humans won’t bother you. Sometimes they can’t help themselves once they have drunken some. They usually try and ‘score’ with one of us. It’s disgusting, I know. But just try and stay right near Edward and we should be fine.” I said.

“Okay Alice.” Bella replied smiling.

Carrie then came back with our drinks and we all sat and talked about some fun stories of the last time we were here and how fun it was.

“Oh my God Bella the funniest thing happened here last time. It was about 5 months before you arrived and Edward actually danced with me and some red headed girl came up to him and smacked him on the ass. It was the funniest thing to see Edward get so embarrassed and walk off the floor. Oh…you should have been there. You wouldn’t have been able to move you would be laughing so hard!” Rosalie shared.

All of us were laughing and Edward scowled in annoyance.

“Oh I would have loved to see that!” Bella said through laughs.

“It was so much fun. I can’t believe how long it’s been. Life really kept us busy for too long.” Jasper said.

“I agree Jasper. It’s been too long. Let’s make sure we never wait this long again for our next visit.” Rosalie said as she raised her glass. We all raised them and cheered in agreement.

“Who wants to go dance with me?” Bella asked as she stood up.

Emmett jumped up and said, “I’ll dance with you squirt.” Bella and Em then started walking towards the dance floor as “Untouched” by The Veronicas started playing.

Edward watched them walk away and smiled as he asked Rosalie to dance. She got up and they walked to the floor as well. Jasper and I followed as well.

We danced throughout the song and a couple others until we became bored and sat back down again.

“I’m bored. Can we leave soon?” Bella asked.

“So soon love?” Edward asked.

“Yeah. I miss being home. I want to go do something else.” She said.

“Sure Bella. We can go.” Edward said.

“Let’s go.” I said as we all left to our cars and drove home.
