DISCLAIMER: The great Stephenie owns all. I'm just playing with the characters.
This is my first fic and first story ever written by me. Feedback would be really appreciated.
PROLOGUE
I watched her walk down the aisle. In a beautiful white dress. Towards the beautiful man I loved.
Everyone's eyes were glued to the bride. I could hear strains of whispers around me.
How lovely she is.
They are such a cute couple.
They'll make gorgeous kids.
My heart clenched in pain. But that wasn't what had captured my attention.
It was him. His eyes, which were brimming with adoration for his wife-to-be.
How I had ached to see him look that way at about having my own happily-ever-after.
But like most dreams, mine remained just that-a dream. And I was going to lose whatever was left of it within a matter of few minutes. They were going to be man and wife. She was going to be his, he would be hers. Perhaps he already was. I tore my eyes away from him and blinked away the tears.
Dad's hand tightened around mine. I looked up to see him looking at me. It was the same expression he had wore when mom had forgotten my birthday...like he could see right through me. Like he could see my pain and feel it as his own. I wouldn't be surprised if he could.
Charlie and me were very similar and loved each other to bits. My happiness was tied to his and he wouldn't be able to breathe if something happened to me. I worried that all this stress over me wasn't any good for him and smiled back at him as best as I could.
He wasn't fooled. He could never be. Maybe that was the beauty of our relationship. He could read my face like no one could. He was my shelter, my home. My daddy.
I looked back towards him. As if he could feel my eyes on him his eyes swept over to me and he grinned. How could I ever deny this angel his happiness? I couldn't. I smiled as convincingly as I could. I don't think I succeeded because his smile dropped a little. It wouldn't have been noticeable to any one else, but I could see the twinkle in his eyes , flicker and die out. The smiled remained but the genuity of it vanished. I worried over upsetting him at his wedding. Even at the most painful moment of my life I couldn't stop thinking about his happiness. How could I? He was the love of my life.
My best friend.
Edward Cullen.
