The Wedding

By:Muadnait A Patraic

I was really starting to get nervous Alice had been gone only a few minutes but still I was already late on my own wedding day. I was pacing back and forth wondering why Alice couldn't see I was going to forget my something blue I mean she could see things for Pete's sake. Granted that her gift wasn't completely reliable but she still could have made an effort to make sure this went of without a hitch. I was really starting to get worried I mean the rest of my life was before me and I was eager to get there but I couldn't because it had to be prefect for him no blemishes at all. I was suddenly stopped mid pace by a knock on the door of my bridal room.

"Alice?" I asked hesitant

"No, It's me dear what are you doing. Jasper can't stall forever love." Edwards perfect voice flowed through my brain.

"I don't have my something blue."

"That doesn't matter really does it?"

"Yes it does this has to perfect."

"Perfect for you or perfect for someone else?"

"For me this has to be right."

"Okay, Alice is back with your something blue now."

"Bella get behind the door so Edward won't see you." Alice Commanded in her pixie voice.

"Alright come in." I sighed

"See you soon Bella." Edward said while walking away. I was extremely curious to see what my something blue would be I sat down in front the vanity eagerly awaiting the surprise. Alice pulled out a small brown woven sack with a yellow string holding it closed I watched as she carefully opened the bag. She pulled out several small blue flowers that looked extremely familiar almost like the Forget Me Not's from Edward's meadow. Alice gracefully took the little flowers and started attaching them to my veil quietly humming to herself it sounded like something by Chopin. I sat a still as I could so I wouldn't ruin the masterpiece that Alice was creating I didn't want to look either not till I was complete. What seemed like an hour in that chair was only a minute of my time, "There you go, you look like an ancient princess can we get this show on the road now. I have been here since almost four o'clock this morning making sure everything looked good and I have been working on this wedding for almost three months straight." Alice complained.

"Yes Alice I am ready." I sighed pleased with her work. I waited patiently for my dad to come and walk me down the aisle hopefully he wouldn't make some awkward speech about marriage and commitment. I was pacing in front of the door again wondering where he was when he slowly opened the door poked his head in and took a look around.

"Are you ready Bells?" Charlie asked.

"Yes I am." I responded with such authority it scared me. I had never been so ready for anything in my entire life.

"Are you sure this is what you want Bells?"

"More than anything in the world I am as sure as I have ever been."

"Alright then, let's go so I can take this stupid tie off."

"Okay dad." I chuckled lightly. I walked slowly with Charlie to the two doors that marked the entrance to the church were the rest of my life was about to begin.
