XN:Woo hoo! New short story. Two shot. This is the first chapter, and I am saddened to say that I own none of this, except for the idea that came into my head. Stephenie owns all of it, though I would love to own our dear resident vampire, Edward.


Late Apologies

August the ninth. I could hardly believe that the day was here. August ninth. My wedding day. My wedding to Edward Cullen. Three or four days from now, I was going to be just like him. A vampire.

This morning had passed by in a blur. Edward had watched me sleep, like always, but Alice must have stolen him sometime while I was away in dreamland, lost in the memories of our first time in the meadow, nearly a year and a half before, and hopefully where either the wedding ceremony or reception would be held, the wedding being just a mere half hour away. Rosalie had done my hair, saying that she was jealous of the length, and Alice and don't my make-up. It took slightly longer than my prom look, and after looking in to mirror after their work was completed, I thought that I finally looked somewhat like I belonged at his side. Charlie and Renée had left my room just a few minutes ago, and to my amazement, Renée had been surprisingly supportive of my impending marriage to Edward.

So when someone knocked on my door, I assumed it was Carlisle or Esme to get me for my most likely disastrous walk down the aisle.

"Come in," I called. I was facing the mirror, and when the person walked through the door, I was able to see who it was. I was already in my dress and flats that I had requested, while Alice had wanted me to wear a ridiculously high heel, Edward and I deemed them unsafe.

My heart stopped for a moment when I saw Jack Black enter the room.
