Thank you to my banner maker, MarieCarro for the MOST incredible banner!

Huge massive gargantuan thank you goes out to: My beta, Nicole (IdealSkeptic) for being the best friend I've never met anybody could ever ask for. My prereaders: Gemma (EternallyCullen) and Amy (HoneymoonEdward) and also to Kayla (ForeverRobsessed) for being incredible over the last few months, putting up with me and all my worrying. Thank you to all my girls for being there when I was stressed about this, cheering me on and believing in me, and putting up with my crap over the last 4 months! This story is dedicated to all of you. I love you.

And to you, April, I hope you enjoy this little story that I cooked up.

Prologue:

I smooth my dress for what must be the hundredth time and run my hand through my hair.

"Bella!" Peter runs over to me and starts to fluff my hair out. Again. "I've told you about a thousand times this morning! Stop. Touching. Your. Hair!"

I press my lips together in an effort to not laugh, but this only makes him glare at me. "And don't do that either! Honestly, all my hard work is going to waste!" He runs back over to his make-up bag and returns to my side with a lip brush in hand to start touching up my lipstick again. "I don't know why you're so nervous, it's going to be okay."

I turn my head to the side to look at Edward talking with my father and his own parents. He turns to look at me and grins.

I look back at Peter and smile. "I know."

He smooths my hair down once more and leans in to kiss me on the cheek. "I'm so proud of you, Your Highness."

I blush and Peter winks at me.

The door to the main ceremonial room opens and Riley walks in. He closes the door behind him, smiles at Peter, walks over to join me, and checks his watch. "We're already running about fifteen minutes behind schedule. Are you about ready?"

I look back over to find Edward walking towards me. He comes to stand at my side and wraps his arm around my waist. "I'm ready when you are."

I take a deep breath in and blow it out. "I'm so nervous."

He places a kiss on the side of my head and squeezes my waist. "It'll be okay. It's just the press, right?"

I laugh and lean into his side. "Yes, but I hope you're ready to not be able to see for the rest of the afternoon."

"I'm ready for everything with you, Your Highness." He smiles tenderly at me.

I look back to Riley, who's grinning at us. "We're ready, Riley."

We walk towards the door, and I can hear the press on the other side. I look over my shoulder to look for my father. He's standing in the back of the room, with Marcus, his assistant, and Edward's parents. He looks at me and smiles before giving me a thumbs up. Esme and Carlisle also smile warmly at me.

I turn back to Riley who's waiting for my cue. "Let's do this."

Riley opens both doors, and walks out ahead of us. "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Her Royal Highness, Princess Isabella and Mr Edward Cullen."

We begin to walk forward, the flashes from the cameras start, and as we stand in front of the world's press, announcing our engagement, I can't help but look back on the last eight months, and wonder how I got so lucky after almost ruining my reputation.
