I was content just listening to the voices singing, but I liked Edward's voice more, so I prodded him to sing by singing some more.

"I wish I knew how," I sang, looking at him expectantly.

"Your eyes are like starlight now." he didn't miss a beat, staring at me intensely, momentarily dazzling me, as he so often did.

"T-to br-break this sp-spell." I stuttered out, losing pace with the song.

He smiled at my faltering, knowing what he had done. I realized he had planned it and my lips formed a thin line, while my brows furrowed in frustration.

I ought to say no, no, no, sir

"Mind if I move a little closer." he sang, trying to pull me closer.

I resisted and tried to pull away, but he was still singing to the song. Funny how the words kept seeming to fit.

"What's the sense in hurting my pride" he sang, pulling me to him, with that half-smirk on his face.

"You're not very nice." I said, looking down, so he couldn't use his eyes on me again.

"Neither are you." he said, pulling my chin up.

"You're the one trying to dazzle me into submission." I huffed, finally letting my eyes graze his face, while still avoiding eye contact.

"I'm sorry, love. Just wanted to test it and make sure it still works. I wasn't sure if it would still work after you were changed. Thought maybe your power would be immunity to me." he said, chuckling, but his eyes flickered brief sadness.

"Edward. You can't seriously believe that me getting changed by you would mean that I would lose my human feelings for you. You are my love. My only love, forever." I said, making eye contact and bringing my hand up to his cheek.

He nestled against my hand, shutting his eyes. I smiled at him, though he couldn't see it.

The song continued and we continued our dance, around the unfinished tree, the kitchen and back near the piano.

I've got to go home.
Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there.
Say, lend me your comb.
It's up to your knees out there.
You've really been grand.
Your eyes are like starlight now.
But don't you see.
How can you do this thing to me.
