Bella's P.O.V

Alice finished my hair as I inspected the flowing white dress that she had picked out for me. The day had finally come when I would marry Edward. A flood of emotions ran through my mind as my heart rate continued to rise rapidly.

"All done!" Alice interrupted my thoughts with her excited cry. I marveled at my appearance.

"Alice this is all so amazingly wonderful! How can I ever thank you enough?" I gleefully embraced my friend.

"OK, OK!" She said, pushing me away. "Well, I'd better go take my place in the sanctuary. Charlie should be here any minute to escort you in. I'll see you there Bella!" With that, Alice skipped out the door, closing it as she went.

A soft knock sounded and I grabbed my flowers. I breathed in deeply and stepped out the door. Suddenly, a bag was shoved over top of my head. I opened my mouth to scream for help, but it was covered with a gag so that no sound could escape. I struggled to stay within consciousness, but within seconds I had fallen into a deep, dreamless sleep.

Edward's P.O.V.

I breathed in as I entered the sanctuary. Today I was going to marry Bella. Today would bind us together forever.

I looked through the sea of faces. In the front left corner I saw my family already seated. The only members of my family who were not seated there were Jasper, my best man, Alice, the maid of honor and Rosalie, one of the bridesmaids. Renee and Phil were seated on the front right hand corner. Charlie of course, was probably just outside with Bella, waiting for the music to start playing, and then they would walk down the aisle.

Suddenly, I heard Alice screaming her thoughts at me. Edward you donut! Are you listening to a word I'm saying? I stared at her in confusion. Well, here's what I've been trying to tell you! I can't see Bella! Did someone invite the werewolves? I had sent Jacob an invitation. Why would he be mingled in with Bella's future though?

I turned around and started toward the door again, to find out what was going on with Bella, but Alice seemed determined to stop me from going. Edward! I'm sure that it's nothing. And anyways, you can't go and see her yet! I decided to ignore her and keep going. I was going to get to the bottom of this sooner or later. Edward fine! I'm coming with! I chuckled as Alice glared at me and rushed to catch up.

When we got to Bella's room, Charlie was there banging on the door. I sighed and knocked on the door. "Bella?" I softly called. There was no answer. Alice handed me a key and I unlocked the door. Nobody was inside the room, and taped to the mirror was a note that read:

Edward,

By the time you read this I will be long gone. I cannot marry you. I'm so sorry and I hope that you will forgive me. Goodbye forever.

Bella
