Bella POV:
Everything was ready. I was going to marry Edward in less than a month, and then I was going to become a vampire. I would finally become his equal, and he'd never have to choose between me and his family again. I haven't failed to mention the fact that I was going to become his woman soon…I blushed at the thought.
"What's wrong, love?" Edward asked casually as he lay beside me in our meadow.
"Nothing. I'm just thinking." I replied.
"About what?"
I giggled. It still bothered Edward that he couldn't read my thoughts. However, in my opinion, it was a great relief. I always wondered if our relationship would be different if he could read them. It didn't matter though. He was forever mine.
I was lost in thought again when Edward nudged me.
"mm?" I glanced up at him
"You never answered my question." He stared at me with those golden orbs that never seemed to fail taking my breath away.
I gazed back into them, seeing my own pathetic human reflection. I was nothing compared to his beauty, but he never once mentioned that to me.
"I was just thinking about how wonderful it's going to be when we're married." I looked up at him, and he smiled.
"I think about that every day. I'm getting really impatient. It's bad for me really. My self-control might slip."
"I don't see a problem with that." I laughed. I knew he wasn't going to lose control.
Edward gazed at me for awhile, and he was about to open his mouth and reply when his cell phone rang.
"Alice." He groaned and answered the phone.
Ever since I gave Alice permission to handle my wedding, she had been bugging me non-stop about the smallest matters. 'What color should the cake be, Bella? Should the streamers be silk? What kind of food should we have?' She brought up the most unimportant matters and then wouldn't let them drop until I made a decision.
"What does she want now?" I asked when Edward hung up the phone.
"Here's a surprise for you," Edward looked at me playfully, "She wants you to go home and get a good night's rest while she talks to me about…"He paused for a minute and then continued, "…our hunting plans for the night before."
Oh yeah, I had forgotten. Edward and his family were going to go hunting the night before the wedding to make sure nothing would go wrong. However, with me being so accident-prone, I guaranteed them that something was going to go wrong and there was nothing they could do to stop it.
"We better leave," Edward sighed, "Alice is getting impatient, and she's considering running up here and dragging me back to our house herself."
I laughed at the idea, and then hopped on Edward's back as he ran through the forest and back to his shiny Volvo parked on the outskirts of the trail. He stopped at the passenger side and began dazzling me with those unfair eyes of his. Then, as I was preparing myself for a kiss from him, he quickly slid me inside the seat and got onto the driver's side.
'Stupid, Shiny, Volvo owner.' I thought. Then I turned to glance at him, and I changed my mind. 'Sexy, stupid, shiny, Volvo owner.'
We are at my house in a record time. I was still not used to his freaky fast driving, but I got out without a complaint and started walking towards my house.
"Love you!" I called to Edward as I watched him drive away.
I got inside my house without a problem and realized Charlie was coming home from work pretty soon. Ever since I told him I WAS getting married, he always seemed angry around me. Then, I decided to myself, it's time for me to suck up to him with some of his favorite foods.
I began cooking dinner as usual, laughing at myself when I tripped over a piece of paper laying on the floor. I picked it up and it read.
Bella,
Gone out fishing. Don't bother with dinner; I'll get something at Sue's. Love you.
Dad
"Wonderful." I groaned out load.
My groan was cut off by the telephone ringing. I ran to get it.
"Hello?" I asked
"Bella," a familiar husky voice appeared on the other line, "it's Jake."
"Jake!" I cried, "Where have you been? You've been gone for two weeks! Everyone's been worried about you!"
"I know." He sighed, "Listen, Bella, if it isn't too much for you. I was wondering if you could come over, and we could talk."
I pondered this for a moment and then replied, "Sure, Jake, I'll be at your house as soon as I can."
"Thanks Bells" He replied just before the line went dead.
I went up into my room and wrote a note to Edward,
Hey, I've gone to Jakes for awhile. Love you. Bella.
With that task done, I hopped in my old truck and drove off to La Push, having no idea the trouble that was about to follow.

How's that for a first chapter? Kinda Boring I know, but I had to set the stage for the plot that's about to unravel. If you have issues with my writing style or something else, please tell me or make suggestions that I could follow. Thanks.
