School was over. What was I supposed to do? The wedding was eventual going to happen, but when? I was going to turn into a vampire, but when? These are the questions I want to know, but nobody tells me.
So far, summer in Forks was boring. Nothing to do and no friends to see. Everybody from school was off on college road trips and having a great summer. But I was waiting in Forks, for my fairy tale to begin. But when?
The only thing that really mattered to me anyways was Edward. My everything…
Am I staring off into the distance again? I think so. Oh crap! Everyone around me is staring at me and probably thinking in their minds that I'm some idiot who just stares into space. I will ask Edward about that later….
We were all at the dinner table. Edward, Charlie, Rene, Phil, and me. My mom said it was a "family" gathering. Fun! Of course I had to cook everything but that didn't bother me. Really, I don't know why Rene and Phil came into town. They just came. I think Charlie told them about how Edward and I wanted to say something big. Great, a whole audience.
Edward and I decided that we were going to tell my family. And it had to be soon. I was so anxious to be a vampire, the whole wedding thing seemed like a piece of cake. I just didn't want to say bye… to everyone.
Edward looked at me. I'm sure he could hear my heart race, but I didn't care. I think I got used to the usual embarrassment. He winked. Oh no! That's the cue! Come on Bella take a deep breath.
"Bella, are you okay? You look like your hyperventilating, " my overly protective mother pointed out. I ignored her question just as Edward started to speak.
"I have an announcement. Actually we have an announcement." I love how he said "we". I better get used to it because after we're married, I'm gonna hear this all the time!
"What is it?" the three parents said in unison. Oh.. Edward just get it over with! This was the first time I wished he could read my mind. Okay I will…
"We're getting married," I said-- immediately regretting it. They all stared at me without saying a word. Suddenly, Edward grabbed my hand.
He whispered, "This will be a long night."
