Chapter 1: Welcome Brother Bear

APOV

I couldn't believe it. Just four more weeks and I would be joined forever with my Edward. Everything had gone so well in the year since I'd joined the Cullen's. Well almost everything. I wasn't as close to Rosalie as I wanted to be. Her depression, jealousy and bitchiness could be completely off the scale at times. It had only gotten worse since the day that Edward finally proposed to me.

Flashback

It had been nine months to the day when I first arrived at the Cullen home. Edward had invited me out to watch 'Top Hat' starring Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers at the cinema, and now we were going dancing to recreate some of the moves we'd seen in the film.

I didn't think Edward could get more handsome. His bronze hair was sticking up in wild disarray as usual. Nothing he did could ever seem to tame it. My own was slicked back in perfect waves. For the past few weeks he'd been driving me nuts. I knew he was planning on proposing, but he hadn't made up his mind when to do it so he could skip my visions. Instead he was carrying his mothers ring with him at all times.

I was dancing wrapped up like a precious china doll in his arms just letting the music drift us away as suddenly 'Dancing Cheek to Cheek' came on, and we started to recreate the moves from the musical we'd seen earlier, while Edward sang along his velvety smooth voice sending shivers right through me. Just as the song finished he span me away from him. When I stopped spinning I turned to look at him, only to see him on one knee with his mothers ring lying nestled in its box in his outstretched hand.

"Will you marry me Alice?" he whispered so softly and shyly that even with my vampiric hearing I barely heard him. I felt venomous tears well up in my eyes as I looked at him.

"Yes" I managed to squeak out "A thousand times yes." The smile that lit up his face then would have been enough to blind half the world.

He quickly stood and removed the ring from the box before placing it on my hand and kissing my hand so tenderly it was as if a feather had brushed against me, yet it sent a shock of pure electricity through me. With that he captured me in a tight embrace.

"I love you so much my Alice, I want you for all eternity" he whispered in my ear.

"I love you to my Edward, and you have me." I whispered back. As we split apart I was surprised to see all the other people in the dance hall standing and clapping the two of us. I'd completely forgotten they were there.

After choking down the complementary bottle of champagne we were given by the manager of the dance hall we made our way out and into Edwards beautiful brand new Black 1935 Alfa Romeo Supercharged Twin car. Edward opened the door and assisted me in entering the car before he ran around to the driver's side so that we could head home and let our family know our good news.

I couldn't stop staring at the ring on my hand as Edward squeezed my fingers slightly. Once we were outside our home we practically ran in to the house as I called for everyone to come into the dining room.

Edward held my hand as we sat and waited for the three members of our family to arrive.

"We have some news. Tonight I asked Alice to marry me and thankfully she accepted" Edward said beaming as soon as they had all taken their seats. As soon as he finished talking Esme ran over and pulled us both into a big hug followed closely by Carlisle.

"Congratulations both of you." Carlisle said.

I turned around then to look for Rosalie only to see she was nowhere in sight. Suddenly my mood was no longer as joyous as it had been.

End Flashback

Before that day I'd been slowly becoming friends with Rosalie, and she had shared my shopping addiction. Since that day however, everything had changed. Rosalie started to put more and more distance between me and her. When I'd asked her to be my bridesmaid she'd acted as though I'd asked her to eat a three course meal. The look on her face was full of revulsion.

I just couldn't understand it. Esme kept telling me it was because she felt alone and our wedding was bringing back bad memories for Rose, but it still wasn't fair of her to act this way. Perhaps it would help if we went out together and talked about what was bothering her. Maybe go off hunting together just the two of us. As I thought about it a vision hit me of the two of us together in Tennessee.

A scent hit my nostrils and I took off Rose trailing behind me as I saw a young man being mauled by a bear. I quickly snapped the bear's neck before I sank to my knees and placed my lips to his throat quickly biting into his flesh and draining him dry.

"No...No...No. That won't do" I decided so hunting was off for me and Rose. As I made up my mind not to go hunting anymore another vision hit me.

Rose was hunting alone in the same stretch of woods in Tennessee when the scent of blood hit her. She came across the same young man and the bear. Quickly killing the bear she turned to look at the man. Her black eyes seemed to be full of hunger until her eyes landed on his face a lock of his curly brown hair fell into his eyes, and he smiled showing deep dimples in his cheeks. Rose bent down and gently brushed the lock away from his face before she picked him up carefully in his arms and ran towards home.

What the hell was that? Focusing I managed to look further into the future.

Rose was smiling beautifully in a tight white dress as she walked down an aisle with Carlisle. Her golden hair was in ringlets down her back yet covered in a veil. Her eyes scanned towards the man, no Vampire at the other end of the aisle. His familiar curly brown hair was styled perfectly, except for one lock of curly brown hair which fell over his eyes, and he looked so handsome in his tuxedo. The look of awe on his face as he looked at Rose was incredible. I couldn't help my own smile as I watched the complete look of love in the big bear of a man's golden eyes as I stood as her bridesmaid before looking over at my own handsome husband standing acting as his best man.

As I came out of the vision I couldn't help but squeal in happiness. Rose was going to find her soul mate today, and I would hopefully get the sister I had always dreamed off.

"Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When were out together dancing cheek to cheek"

I started singing to myself as I watched Rose leave the house and head out on her hunting trip. Before I decided to myself that I might be better leaving the house myself and making sure that the only one who would be here when she returned was Carlisle.

RPOV

"Urgh all I ever hear is 'my wedding this...my wedding that' it's enough to drive even the sanest person crazy. You would think that no one had ever gotten married before from the way in which Alice and Edward are acting. It's just not fair. Why should they get there happily ever after?"

I knew I was being unfair but it hurt me so much. Just two years ago I was looking forward to my own wedding, and future children. Now I'm basically dead, and children are never going to happen. I had to get out of the house for a while, which is why I was now wandering through the woods to hunt with no set location in mind, as I finally voiced the thoughts running through my head.

"Ok, fine I admit it. I'm jealous of the pipsqueak. The way Edward looks at her with complete adoration makes me wish I had someone of my own in this life. I know I'm making things difficult for them but no one seems to care about me anymore. It's as if I could just vanish and they wouldn't care less."

As I continued walking I caught the scent of a herd of deer. Quickly I took down two and drained them. I could feel the blood filling me up completely. More and more frequently I kept leaving the house by myself to hunt and escape the happy bride to be. She had everyone running around at her beck and call. Esme was beside herself with helping to plan the decor of the venue for her first child. Whilst Edward and Carlisle seemed to be out most of the time picking up new items that the devil pixie wanted even though half the things she thought about she changed her mind on. She was a damn psychic so why couldn't she just see the vision she wanted for the wedding and go with it instead of acting like such a spoiled little princess.

Slowly I started making my way further into the Mountains. I must have been over 100 miles away from home when suddenly my senses were hit with the most delicious scent of blood, human blood at that. I could feel my eyes darkening in hunger even though I was already full. Quickly I made my way towards the scent. As I burst through the trees I saw a large Grizzly Bear toying with a large man. Somehow he was still standing even though I could make out gouge marks that the bear's claws had already made deep into his chest.

Silently I made my way over to the bear just as the man seemed to collapse to the ground. In an instant I snapped the bear's neck and threw its carcass away from me. I knelt next to the man taking him in as I prepared to drink from him.

He was huge tall, and muscular. My eyes scanned to his face. As his ocean blue eyes met my own a lock of his brown curly hair fell across his eyes. Then he smiled at me. The dimples and the innocence in his face when he smiled instantly drew me back to my human life, and my best friend Vera's little boy Henry. Unconsciously my hand went out and swept the lock of hair from the man's eyes.

"Are you an angel" he asked me softly his deep voice hoarse yet faint from blood loss.

I don't know what came over me. One minute I was ready to assist him in ending his life. The next I held him in my arms and I was almost flying across the ground in my hurry to get him home to Carlisle. Somehow I couldn't see this man who was so much like Henry leave this world for good.
