So I'm back! Yes I know it has been a super long time since I have touched this story, but I lost my mojo for lack of a better word. But I am not going to bore you with all the details (unless ya'll want to know). I have been taking the last 2 months editing an revising this story, it is still not complete but all that I have written before has been looked over and I have tried to correct my mistakes. I hope that that my old readers are still with me and I hope the new ones like what they read. My story is based on the Twilight characters as well as the plot line from a Korean movie call My Little Bride (hence the name of my story), I want to state this now that I take no credit neither Twilight or My Little Bride, I just wanted to put my own spin on it. I would love to hear all of your feed back so don't be afraid to let me know what you think.
As for the updating schedule, because I know all of you are anxious for one, I hate to disappoint but I do not have a concrete updating schedule. Between my internship, my job, classes and family, I don't want to promise something and not deliver on it so... ya. I'll try not to be too long in between updates.
That's all for now, hope you enjoy!

Mom had sent me out to go pick up Edward from the airport since he was coming home after finishing college. Everyone was busy with the homecoming party so I was doing the job of picking up the playboy. Yay me (not). I don't understand it, why does everyone in Edward's family as well as mine dote on him. He's like the golden child that can do no wrong, I seriously what to get that reevaluated!
By the time I got to airport, I was grouchier than ever. I was cut off twice, nearly missed the exit, and then I was stuck behind an old lady that was going twenty miles under the speed limit! I have nothing against the elderly driving, but seriously people get a freaking move on! Once I finally found parking, which was like a three mile hike from Edward's gate I was in no mood for anything, I wanted to get home and get this damn homecoming party over with. I looking in a flower shop window waiting for Edward, when someone dropped their phone by me and kept walking. At first I was startled, when I got a look at who could have possibly dropped their phone, I was surprised to see it was a guy. I was about to chuck the phone at the ass's head when I noticed the unruly bronze hair that would only belong to Edward.
"Hey Penny!" I shouted loud enough for the passer byers to stop and stare. I know I got his attention because he froze. I was the only one that ever called him that and he hated it. He turned around slowly; the tension never leave his stance. When he was fully facing me I noticed just much he had changed. The boyish looks that he had before he left for Columbia were now gone. Stubbled now covered his chiseled jaw. He was even taller now than he was when I last saw him four years ago.. Dressed insome low riding dark wash jeans that incased his yummy muscular legswhere did that come from? He had on a fitted black button down that stretched across his taut chest and arms. Ok need to stop thinking about that. As I was shaking myself from that weird train of thought, Edward had walked up to me.
"Who do you th..." Edward started to say but stopped when he look at my face.
"Bella?" he asked incredulously.
"The one and only" I smiled.
"Wow! I guess you finally grew out of that awkward phase." He said with a little laugh.
"Wow thanks. Looks like you grew into an even bigger dick!" I retorted.
"That hurts!" he pouted
"And I care because?" I gave him my best bitch brow
"Ok ok I'll play nice." He conceded.
"Ok fine. Come one we need to hurry and get back home everyone waiting for us." I huffed.
"All right. Hey how's your granddad? Mom told me that he wasn't feeling well." Gone was the cocky attitude and genuine concern replaced it.
"He's not doing so hot actually, we don't know what's wrong with him and he refuses to go the doctors." I replied softly looking down.
"Well hopefully he will get better." He patted my arm in an attempt to comfort me.
"Yeah hopefully"
The ride home was thankfully quiet, all that talk of granddad got to me. I didn't like talking about my feelings; I was a lot like dad in that respect. Our families have known each other since our granddads were in the service. Edward and I even though 5 years apart were always together. But we never got along. Our families did everything together, from family vacations, dinners, birthday parties, pretty much everything was done together. Plus the fact that we lived in houses that were right next to each other made sure we were together. I was brought out of my musing after my car came to a stop Edward insisted on driving since he was convinced I didn't know how to. I gave in because it was not worth getting into in a parking lot.
Aunt Esme and uncle Carlisle were waiting at the door when we parked. Both had huge grins plastered on their faces. As soon as Edward opened the door Esme was at his side engulfing him in a bone crushing hug.
"God how I've missed you!" Esme murmured with tears in her eyes.
"Missed you too mom." Edward replied softly
"Esme, dear give the boy some room to breathe." Carlisle chuckled at Esme's enthusiasm. "Son how was your flight?" Back was the cocky grin on Edwards face when he relied. "It was interesting, I'm glad to be home. I've missed everyone, even our little Bella."
"I'm not little Edward I'm 17 thank you very much!" I said hotly. Every time he opens his damn mouth I want to smack him, why does he like to get under my skin!
"Edward!" Esme scolded. "Be nice to Bella she's not the 13 years old anymore, she's a young lady and you should treat her as such do I make myself clear?"
"Yes mom."
"Thank you Aunt Esme."
"Ok let's all go inside Charlie and Renée as well as granddad are waiting inside." Uncle Carlisle said as he ushered us in the house.
It was during dessert that my life got flipped upside down and around
"Bella, Edward and you both come here please?" granddad asked the both of us. "You both know that Edwards grandfather and I were best friends while in the military."
We both nodded.
"Well you see now while we were on one of our assignments we made a sort of pact that we would marry our children to each other's"
"But granddad you both had sons." I said
"I know that's why the pact got moved to the next generation." I was still confused until my brain caught up with what I had heard. Then I exploded.
"Wait what! What do you mean got moved to the next generation! Are you saying that you want me to marry Edward?" I all but shouted.
"What you can't be serious granddad" Edward asked nervously.
While all of this was going on our parents were quiet.
"Now Bella and Edward I'm asking you this as my final wish. I'm and old man and am not as healthy as I use to be. I want to see the two of you married before I die, please."
"But I'm only 17! I can't get married I'm still in high school, what would people think? What would people say is that even legal?" I was grasping at straws.
"Now honey" my dad interjected. "As long as your 16 with parent consent you can get married." He gave a nervous chuckle at the end of the sentence. I looked towards mom, hoping she would talk same sense I to everyone, but I was met with silence.
"I can't believe this all of you knew and are ok with this?" I screamed. "I'm not going to do this you can't make me!"
"I'm sorry granddad I can't do this either I just finished school I can't get married." Edward said.
After that I stormed out of the house. I just couldn't be in there anymore. Edward was not far behind.
"How could they! What were they thinking?" Edward was silent while I ranted; when I finally looked over at him he looked nervous, but contemplative. "You cannot be seriously thinking about this, are you?"
"I don't know." Was all Edward said.
