Siren

Chapter 11

Last night felt like a nightmare.

I thought Jonathan was going to rape me.

What was wrong with him?

Was it my singing?

Why does everything happen to me?

My eyes opened up to see the borad daylight of the sun shining on my skin. I moved my head to see Edward's back to me, snoring lightly.

I moved over a bit and snuggled up to him. I wrapped my arms around him. I felt him stir, but kept myself next to him. I closed my eyes tightly, wanting to sleep some more. 

He moved my arms from his body and got up slowly. I peeked opened an eye and saw him watching me, before he sighed and got up. He went in the closet, to change. I closed my eyes because I don't want to see him personally.

I heard a door close and opened my eyes to see him gone and the door closed. I got up and went in the closet to change into jeans and a green blouse with purple heels.

I got out to see him in the kitchen, cooking, again. 

I walked up behind him and hugged him to me. "Good morning Jane." He said. I smiled and kissed his neck. I felt him shudder with pleasure. I smiled wider.

"Good morning Ed." I unwrapped my arms from him and went to sit down, with an orange jucie ready, and plates set on the table with forks and knifes. 

I saw the newspaper and grabbed it. The front line said:

'New Villain on the rise?'

'Rumors said from rouges in Arkham said that there was a woman who said to be named burlesque. They have seen and heard her sing at the Iceberg lounge. Everyone wants to see who this woman is. Tonight, everyone is going to see her live. More on pg. 3'

I smiled. Tonight everyone is going to see who I am. But a villain? I didn't kill anyone but if it makes everyone happy, then....I got to change that.

I put the newspaper down as Edward comes to the table with pancakes. Yum, I'm starving. We both ate in slience.

Once we finished, Edward started to read the newspaper as I cleaned up the dishes. 

He laughed. "I can't believe they think your a villain. I mean, you haven't killed anyone....Have you?" He asked. I smiled.

"No.....not yet." I muttered the last part. Good thing he didnt hear me. He nodded and continued reading.

My phone ranged and I answered it. "Hello?"

"Jane? This is Oswald."

"Oh, Hello Oswald, is there something wrong?"

"Yes." I started to panic.

"What? What's wrong?" 

"Why are'nt you here! People are waiting."

"I thought it was tonight."

"That's what they said in newspapers, they actually mean right now!"

"Oh alirght."

"Good, see you then."

"Yea, see you there."

I hanged up the phone and walked in the kitchen. Edward stared at me, confused. "Oswald wants me to be at The Iceberg lounge, since people are there to see me now."

He nodded and said that he would wait here until I change. I got up and change into my tight corest dress. Shoes. Curled my hair. And put my makeup on.
