The Wedding

"I now pronounce you man and wife. You may now kiss the bride."

Edward lifted my veil off my face and drew in for a slow, breathtaking kiss. My smile may have lit up the room but Edward's smile lit up my entire world. I saw the look on his face and it took my breath away because now I was completely and fully his. And he was mine. Of course why he chose me I still had no idea, no matter how many times he tried to explain it to me. Although I pushed these thoughts out of my head as we walked back down the aisle to the awaiting limo out in the front.

As we walked down I saw my mother's face, her eyes swollen with tears, and dabbing at them with a napkin. She told me later they were tears of joy, but how many mothers are happy to see their daughters married at nineteen? My father's face was lit up with joy at seeing me so happy although when I broke the news to him about me marrying I thought he was going to have a heart attack, but I couldn't blame him.

Edward helped me into the limo and I saw that he couldn't stop staring at me, but that was fine because I couldn't tear my gaze away either. He looked…well words couldn't describe how amazing and stunning he looked in his tux, but I would think that every girl in Forks, heck the whole country would envy me. "Are you truly happy Bella?" Edward asked me in a low voice. I could see he really wanted to know.

"This is definitely the happiest moment of my life. Well actually tonight will be the happiest moment of my life," I stated reminding him of the agreement we had made and part of the reason I was in this wedding gown. Of course spending my whole life together with him was another part, but I didn't need this whole production to know that Edward would always be with me.

Edward grinned mischievously and leaned down to kiss me. "Tonight will definitely be on my list of favorite times."

At the reception I almost forgot that I hated parties because I was really enjoying myself. I never left Edward's side so how could I not? When we cut the cake I fed Edward a small piece of cake, knowing it tasted like dirt to him, and he fed me a bite.

The part I dreaded most was up, the dancing. I wasn't shocked though that the music was Edward's lullaby for me. It was our song so it made sense to dance to it at our wedding. In the middle of the song I saw that his attention was averted somewhere else, and when I followed his gaze I stiffened.

The whole pack was there hanging out by the side. In the front Jacob was staring at me with such sadness in his eyes that I was hoping I wouldn't have to see again. Of course I would always want to see Jacob but seeing his pain made me feel pain. I looked up at Edward and he was staring at me to see my reaction, which was fury. "Why are they here? I told Alice not to invite them!" I whispered in his ear.

"Alice didn't invite them love. I did," he whispered sadly back to me.

"Why, Edward? You know I don't want Jake to go through the pain of it…of seeing us getting married."

I peeked over to where Jake was, and noticed now the whole pack was staring. Our song ended and eventually I had to go over to where Jake was. I was hoping seeing him again wouldn't be under these circumstance. I walked over to where Jake was talking to my dad. "How's your summer going," my dad asked trying to make small talk. He knew it must be uncomfortable for him. "Fine, Charlie. Hey Bells," he started as he saw me approaching.

"Well I'll just leave you two now," my dad said as he slipped away.

"Hi Jake," I said not knowing what else to say.

He gave me a sad, small smile so different from the ones he gave me when I used to visit him in La Push. "What are you doing here? I mean well… I didn't think you wanted to come."

We were standing about five feet apart and he took a step towards me. He was wearing a button down shirt with a jacket and dress pants, and his hair was combed and pulled back. "I know and I wasn't going to but when the bl…Edward sent me the invitation. I argued with myself whether to go or not and the thought of seeing you one more time before you… changed well…," he trailed off, but I knew what he meant. He was talking about before I changed from being alive to immortal and finally being a vampire like Edward.

"So can I have one dance? And then we'll leave for good and you won't have to worry about seeing me any longer," he ended trying to sound teasing, but we both knew how true his words were.

We danced slowly and I layed my head on his chest since he was so much taller then me. The song was slow and long, but not long enough because I knew this would truly be the last time I would see Jake. As the song ended he leaned down to whisper, "Good bye Bella," as he gave me a kiss on my cheek and a final squeeze. I squeezed back as hard and as long as I could, then let go because I knew it was time to. Jake walked away and looked back only once and I had to will myself not to cry again. I had told myself I was done crying and that Edward would never see me shed another tear for Jacob Black, and I kept that promise, but barely. The picture of seeing him and the pack walk away I knew would burn in my memory forever always haunting me of what I did.

Edward was right at my side, knowing that I needed him. I just wordlessly hugged him knowing he'd understand. We danced a few more times and I danced once with my father, we had a toast, and finally the reception was over. By the end I was in lighter moods. Part of this was for me, but mostly for Edward. I wanted to be happy and cheerful for him. I hadn't expected to see Jake again and that hit me hard but I could live with it, I would have to live with it.

We drove up to the house and the rest of the family, my family, had gone out hunting leaving Edward and me the house to ourselves. Edward scooped me up in his arms and I couldn't help but laugh. It was old fashioned, but it was Edward and that was one of the things I loved about him.

He carried me over the threshold and up to his room, actually our room now. He put me on the ground and his arms encircled me around my waist as he kissed me long, and sweet. I could feel my heartbeat quicken as we moved in perfect harmony. With effort I pulled myself back with no avail, but he noticed what I wanted and pulled back. I looked up and saw he was confused. "Could I have one human moment? I want to get into something more comfortable." Understanding dawned on his face and he let me go.

When I came back in my pajamas I saw he already undid his tie and that his jacket was off. Well that was one less thing to do. I went to the middle of the bed remembering the last time I was here; how I had tried to convince Edward, and how I ended up engaged instead. This time was different though, we were already married and Edward had agreed. Edward joined me in the middle of the bed and started where we left off. His kisses were unguarded and eager, something that was completely unlike Edward, but I didn't care. My heart beat must have been like a jack hammer, but I was no longer embarrassed by this. We both knew what we wanted, and I started undoing the buttons on his shirt when he pulled away. I stared up at him speechless and confused. "What is it?"

"It's just… are you sure Bella? I know that Jacob Black must've shaken you up and I know you weren't exactly the same at the reception."

Damn! He noticed. But I didn't care about that, not now when I was so close to him. "Believe me Edward, I'm positive this is what I want right now and forever," I said meaning every word I said. I pulled Edward's face back down to kiss him and he believed me because he didn't say anything else to interrupt that night together.
