That night at the airport...

How could I ever leave my Edward? I only wish I had even the slightest bit of courage compared to him. If he could…I started to feel that hole in my stomach start to return as that thought entered into my mind. I am particularly as sensitive about this subject as Edward is to my immortality. His soft, yet hard lips on mine were the last remembrance I would have of him on this venture to London with Alice. I shuddered at the thought as we boarded the plane.

London:

Alice led me out of the terminal with haste. She was up to something, but what? Only, as she takes me towards a sleek, new, yellow mustang, do I finally catch on. We were hotwiring a car…again! She opened the passenger door for me, and before I was even inside she was starting the engine. What is it with vampires and their cars? She drove up to a slightly small (I only say small because it is…compared to the rest of them) shop with a sign on top that read, London Bride Couture. I could tell just by peeking into the window that this was NOT going to be "fun" as Alice had mentioned. As we walked in Alice was immediately jumping from rack to rack, as I turned my head looking around the room at these dresses and gowns and just couldn't convince myself that I was seriously going through with this. Alice had looked over the entire store by then and had decided to have it be custom made with any material and color I wanted. Technically, all that I WANTED was to leave this place and go back to Forks and into my Edward's arms. That thought made me cringe in misery, and wish that Jasper had also come along, I could use a good cheering up. I sighed. Alice handed me a catalog with many different choices of patterns, styles, and colors. I flipped through it quickly thinking, the faster the sooner I'll be with Edward. I could care less how I looked when I get married! I want my fiancé not a dress to marry him with! I selected random things and handed the catalog back to her. She actually was pleased at what I'd chosen, surprisingly. I hoped that that would be the end of it, and thank goodness it was, since the style I picked only had one veil and one pair of heels to go with them.

"Wow Bella, who knew? You actually DO have good tastes after all!" Alice teased.

"Who knew, indeed?" I said smug wishing I could just go home already.

Since I wasn't hiding my depression she noticed and immediately grabbed my hand and jolted to the door and into the stolen car. As soon as we were inside it Alice said, "Edward will be surprised to see you so soon!"

That gave me reassurance. I was going back to my Edward! Now, only a few more hours on a plane and I'll be with him! I couldn't suppress the smile that was blatantly showing. Alice saw it and smiled as well. It was then I wondered. Does she miss Jasper as much as I do Edward? It never dawned on me that anybody could ever be in love as Edward and me. I'm sure she does miss him, I guess, even Rosalie and Emmett's love is inseparable. I can't believe I never noticed this before. Everyone in this family, in all technicalities, have in a way, their own Edward. Alice has Jasper, Rosalie has Emmett, and Esme has Carlisle. Sure I have realized that they love each other, but never how potent their love was for one another. Alice whispered something to herself that proved my suspicions about her and Jasper. "I wonder how Jasper's doing."

I wasn't sure if I was meant to hear that, but I decided to reply anyways, "Alice, I feel your worry, believe me, I love and care for Edward as much as you do for Jasper. I hate to even hear talk of having to leave him."

"I know. It's just, I really miss him is all." She added.

I leaned over to hug her because the way I feel right now cannot be put into words. During the hug we landed. Alice took us to the car (this time one that she actually owns!) and in a matter of minutes we were back at the house.
