"BELLLA! IT'S ALMOST TIME WHAT ARE YOU WEARING?"
Alice just couldn't control herself; she was running around the bridesmaid tent making sure everything was perfect. I had been nervously waiting for my time to walk down the aisle; so I decided to put on my favourite sweatpants underneath my dress to calm me down a bit.
"It's just my sweatpants, no worries I'll slide them off right now..."
I can't believe how gorgeous Alice and Rosalie look in their bridesmaid's dresses! I look like a poofy haired freak next to them! Comparing a toad to a puppy still wouldn't be the right contrast. Honestly, I didn't want Rosalie to be a bridesmaid but Edward thought it was necessary; who else could I have chosen anyway? I was thinking about Angela, although I really hadn't spoke to her in quite awhile, but she did receive an invite.
"Bella, you look amazing!" gasped Alice.
"Yeah, alright if you say so," I shrugged.
She squeezed me tightly, kissed me softly against my cheek and skipped graciously out the tent to meet Jasper. I turned around to see Rosalie's eyes glaring towards me; she smiled sharply and walked outside the tent joined by her escort Emmet. At this point I was all alone, any minute now Charlie would be stepping into the tent to escort me to Edward. I started to shake nervously; I hope I'm not sweating; now how bad would that look next to Alice and Rose? I just want to leave and avoid this embarrassment, but I could never do that to Edward. I was just about to sit done when Charlie entered the tent and gasped.
"You look incredible Bella,"
"Thanks Char-dad, is it time now"
"Yes honey, take hold of my arm. I know you're nervous, just relax, I love you,"
I smiled cheerfully and took hold of his arm. I still can't believe how well he's taking all of this. We stepped outside the tent when we heard the 'here comes the bride song' and started to make our way down the aisle. At first I was looking down, but Charlie nudged me and I knew he was telling me to keep my head up. As I did, I just about had a heart-attack! Edward looks so, so, stunning! I just couldn't keep my eyes off of him; I didn't think he could look even better than he always does. But there he was, in his beautiful tuxedo with his spectacular golden eyes, I love when they're that color. Edward was staring at me too, with his crooked smile that I adored. Thankfully Charlie had been holding onto me tightly, because I just about tripped; big surprise. At last I had reached Edward along with Charlie who had then lowered his arm and kissed me on the cheek, then sat on the closest bench next to Renee and Phil. My mother had tears in her eyes, I can not imagine what is going through her head at this moment, and for once I'm glad I didn't have that ability. I quickly glanced around the room to see who had showed up, there was Esme, Carlisle, Angela, Mike, Jessica, Ben, Eric, and also a few of my little cousins. My eyes then locked with Edwards once again; I could see how happy he was, it made me smile. I suddenly noticed the priest had already begun speaking, but before I could tune in Edward spoke.
"I, Edward Cullen, take you, Isabella Swan, to be my best friend, my lover, and wife. I will be yours in times of plenty and in times of want, in times of sickness and in times of health, in times of joy and in times of sorrow, in times of failure and in times of triumph. I give you my hand, my heart, and my love, from this day forward. I promise to cherish and respect you, to care and protect you, to comfort and encourage you, and stay with you, for all eternity,"
I smiled and then the tears begun with a slight giggle after he emphasised the work 'eternity'. I still can't believe that I'm here, marrying Edward. I just don't understand how I deserve this, or how I'm good enough for him.
"Bella?" Edward whispered gently.
Oh right, my turn. I kept my eyes on Edwards.
"I, Isabella Swan, take you Edward Cullen to be my husband, my partner in life and my one true love. I will cherish our union and love you more each day than I did the day before. I will trust you and respect you, laugh with you and cry with you, loving you faithfully through good times and bad, regardless of the obstacles we may face together. I will love you from this day forward, forever."
Edward smiled deeply reached for my hand and placed it against his cold icy lips. I blushed, he laughed.
"You may now exchange rings," announced the priest.
Alice graciously moved forward, stood beside us and opened the box. Edward leaned in, picked up my ring and gently placed it on my third finger on my left hand. Kissing every finger first just like he had done when he proposed. I started to hyperventilate, I lost all focus, began shaking once again. But suddenly all eyes weren't on my anymore, everyone was staring at the little girl at the end of the aisle. I shook my head trying to regain focus, why was the flower girl there? Do vampires have different traditions where the flower girl comes in between the ring exchange? That doesn't explain why she looks so angry. I felt Edwards body skim lightly against mine, he was standing beside me, though slightly in front. Then I realised that it wasn't my little cousin Margret as the flower girl, in fact this girl isn't a flower girl at all. It's Jane.
