100 Weddings

Bella's POV

However many we have, I will still not completely like weddings. My first is still the worst, although I don't remember it very well. Of course I still have some human memories (which I have forced my now vampire mind to remember), one is from that day, of Edwards perfect face when I said 'I Do'. The other, also from that same day is when Edward made me look in the glass door at our refection. Up until that point I had always felt inferior when I was standing next to him, but then I finally felt like we looked like equals.

My favourite Anniversary was about 30 years ago. It had snowed the night before.

Not that I had been sleeping, but I opened my eyes as I laid across Edwards warm chest. The sun was just coming through the closed French doors of our room, and began to fill it with an unusual bright light. Would it be uncharacteristically sunny on the day of our 70th anniversary? I felt a serge of disappointment.

'Good morning my love' Edwards quiet voice broke the silence and completely redirected my mood to a happier place. I turned over to look up at him, he smiled down at me.

I leaned in to kiss him, 'yes, now it is a good morning' he laughed and brushed a strand of hair out of my face.

'It's been snowing in the night, it's like the world knew today was special' I felt a smile break across my face and I sat up to look out of the doors. He was right, the garden Esme had designed for us and as far as I could see was covered in thick, pure white snow. Unlike in my human life, I now loved snow. It wasn't cold to me and didn't melt when I held it, because my hand was the same temperature. Edward's hand moved up my waist and I snuggled back into his side.

'I remember when you hated snow' he commented, like he was reading my thoughts.

I lifted the barrier in my mind and thought 'trying to get into my head Mr Cullen?' he looked down and simply said

'Always' and he rolled over to balance over me, kissing me passionately.

When we were still again, just lying tangled up in each other, the sun was half way up in the sky. I felt Edward moved to kiss the top of my head, 'So what would you like to do today Mrs Cullen?' I thought about it for a minute and he watched my face and I decided.

'Lets visit our meadow, it's been to long.' he smiled at me and nodded in agreement.

We stepped out into the snow, it wasn't cold ,running on it felt like a soft mattress. Although we no longer lived in Forks, we had settled on the over side of Seattle near the North Cascades National Park. As we ran Edward took my hand in his, this constant connection was always comforting, and within a ten minutes we had reached our meadow. It was untouched, the snow in a perfect blanket spread across the whole meadow. I almost didn't want to ruin this perfect picture, until Edward took my by the waist and pulled me into the middle of the meadow. We lay there together in each others arms, me laying over where his beating heart should be.

'I could stay like this forever' I whispered into his chest,

'If only we could my love' he started stroking my hair 'But I'm sure Esme and Carlisle would like to see us at some point today, I think they have got us something' he leaned up and kissed the top of my head, my heart would have started to race, if it still had a beat.

'Fine. What a way to ruin the moment, by mentioning presents' I rolled over to look at his face, he was smirking

'you have got a lot better, at accepting gifts' and before he let me respond he leaned down to kiss me. If blood was still rushing through my veins it would have gone straight to my cheeks. His arms pulled me closer to his chest and mine wound round his neck, tangling in his bronzed hair.

For once it was me that broke us apart as I sprang to my feet 'well I guess we shouldn't keep them waiting, I mean if presents are involved.' I grinned at him, lying in the snow, his skin practically the same shade of white.

We ran back to the family house, hand in hand and were greeted by them all. Esme had got us a gift, well two gifts. A new book case for Nessie's old room which was now our library/study and a small but perfectly formed crystal vase. Rosalie had said it was to put in roses from our cottage garden. As the sun was leaving the sky at the end of the day Edward and I were sitting in our cottage in front of a fire (although it didn't effect us much) both reading. He hand a thick medical journal in one hand and his other wrapped round my waist. I snuggled into his side with my eyes on a copy of 'Romeo and Juliet' but I was mostly concentrating one the patterns his fingers were making on my waist. Finally Edward turned to me and with a glint in his topaz eyes said 'Bed?' and all I had to so do was smile, and we were gone from the fire.

Alice insisted I have a white dress for today, although the whole virginal white thing is a complete lie, I mean we have a child for God sake?! But I am 'humouring' her, as Edward put it this morning. If Alice had her way completely I would be wearing a dress that was exactly the same as the one on my first wedding day, but I have limits and that is pushing them way too far. In fact she is lucky I let her do all this anyway. I would have been happy with a small celebration, and maybe me and Edward going to Isle Esme for a few weeks. But no. Alice insisted,in fact begged to plan a 'renewal of vows' service which in her eyes is an excuse to plan a ridiculous and seemingly pointless 100th wedding. We compromised on a simple blue dress, or I refused to let her do any of it if I had to wear white. I let her do what she liked with the decorations, It was her money she was wasting, but if I was honest the flowers smelled beautiful. Roses, and lilies.
