She is the main reason this shit got done!

Chapter 1

EPOV
Emmett heaved a heavy sigh as he sat down next to me, undoing the button on his black tux jacket.
"Nice wedding," I congratulated him.
"Thanks man. Have you seen my dad anywhere?" he asked me.
"Yeah, he and Rose were dancing somewhere over there last I knew," I told him pointing in the general direction.
"Thanks. So," he cleared his throat and shifted so that he was facing me, "have you seen Bella?" I stared at him in surprise. I knew when we were younger he had always claimed she would be his Best (Wo)Man but had asked me three months ago instead. I thought he had simply given up on her.
"You invited her? I didn't think you guys were even speaking…" I said slowly watching his reaction.
"We aren't but it would have been nice to have her here. I mean it's been ten years Edward! This is killing me. She refuses to talk to me but she talks to Dad and Jacob Black. Did I offend her that badly before she left?" He seemed to age before my eyes, I knew the feeling. In that minute Emmett Swan looked older than his own father.
"At least we know she's safe and healthy. You should cheer up, it's your wedding," I tried to comfort him.
"Yeah I shouldn't let it get me down," he said with a slightly happier tone. I thought back to when Bella had first left. The day she told everyone she was going to study in France to be exact.
Emmett and I cracked up at the uncomfortable look on Jaspers face. Emmett just busted his ass about checking out this girl and I knew he'd be getting Em back for that shit. We all got out of the jeep and hurried up the old steps so we could get out of the rain. We got inside and made our way to the kitchen but froze when we heard Charlie yelling.
"When were you planning on telling me that you were leaving? What the hell were you thinking Isabella? This will kill your brother and me. And what about your mother? Huh? I trust David but that's when I'm still in the same city as you guys. Jesus Bella, what are we going to tell your brother? This will absolutely crush him."
"I'm sorry dad, but this is a once in a life opportunity. I love you and Em but this isn't right of you. You can't blame me for wanting to be free of this town. I was made for big cities and adventure. The most exciting thing that has happened here since I moved here was Mrs. Stanley getting a new car!" Bella's sweet voice had cracked several times during her speech and I could tell she was crying.
We finally came around the corner to see Charlie with tears streaking down his face sitting at the table and Bella still sobbing standing in the middle of the kitchen. They both turned and looked at us. Bella wiped her cheeks and ran past us up the stairs. Charlie cleared his throat and stood up.
"What the hell is going on," Emmett demanded, his voice deepening in anger.
"Your sister is going to France to study under your uncle David. She leaves in the morning and won't come back till she has finished her studies." After saying that Charlie left the room and turned on the game. He turned it up as loud as it would go. Emmett sat down heavily in the chair Charlie had just abandoned. He looked up at Jazz and me and there were tears gathering in his eyes.
"You should probably head home guys," he murmured. We had left and told Alice and Rosalie who had both demanded to go see Bella immediately but Jazz and I had dissuaded them.
That was the last time we had seen Bella. Emmett was a mess at school, missing Bella like no other, and had confided in us that they had gotten into a fight at the airport. He barely made it through his senior year. High school is hard enough without the extra stress of worrying about his younger sister.
Bella kept in contact for the first year but stopped until five years back when she graduated college. Even then she only talked to Charlie and Jacob.
Suddenly Jasper popped into our line of vision.
"Who's that?" he asked looking over his shoulder. Emmett and I looked back to where he was looking. My breath caught in my throat. She was absolutely gorgeous. The woman had a flowing red dress on and waist length mahogany hair with pale creamy skin. I shifted in my seat, the loose, black pants I wore seemingly shrinking a few sizes in the groin area.
"I'm not sure," Emmett said, trailing off. She approached us and when she was right in front of us she smiled. Her eyes were a strangely familiar chocolate brown and her smile made my heart skip a beat.
"Can I help you?" Emmett asked politely.
"Well yes you could," she answered in a clear voice, "I'm looking for my older brother. He's about 6' 5", has dark curly brown hair, is getting married to a gorgeous blonde and a mole on his ass that's shaped like Texas. Do you happen to know who I'm talking about?" she said in a teasing tone. Jasper and I froze at the same moment, shock radiating from us as we figured out who was standing in front of us.
"Bella?" Emmett gasped. She smiled and nodded.
