Chapter Two

A Surprise for Mrs. Bella Cullen

The rest of the reception wasn't passing as slowly as I'd feared, though I did miss Jacob. His mere presence helped lighten the room and the mood even more for me. Had he stayed, it would have been much more fun, not that it already wasn't extremely amazing already. I had married the man I love after all, so it was never going to be an upsetting evening for me. Even if the Volturi came knocking at our door, I would still be having a magnificent day. Though, with Jacob gone, it seemed like a small light inside of me had been blown out after just being lit when he had arrived. I had no idea where he was going, or when I would see him again.

The last we'd heard, was that he'd ran away, and I'd been so worried to where I wanted to post-pone the wedding to help search for him. Luckily, all he needed was a while to cool off, and returned within a few days. It still worried me that he'd done it before, that he would be capable of doing it again. Maybe something good will happen for Jacob, it should be around the corner for everything he's been through. He did say his love life had changed..maybe he'd moved on...

I was brought out of my thoughts by Edward pointing out towards the dance floor, where his brothers and sisters were having a dance off. We joked together about their competitiveness. They had asked us if we'd wanted to join in on the little competition, but I'd declined, knowing that I'd tested my luck enough with dancing, and that I had no chance at all to out beat any of them. Alice's lavender dress rose slightly in the air, twirling along with her stick-like figure as she advanced gracefully into Jasper's arms. The only way for me to compare this action was an angel floating across the floor. Other onlookers thought so too, I looked at their expressions as they watched in awe, unsure of which Cullen pair to keep their eyes on.

My eyes traveled across the floor to where Rosalie and Emmett were dancing just as gracefully as Alice and Jasper. Rosalie's dress, different from Alice's as felt she didn't look good enough in lavender to keep wearing it after the wedding, was a full-length Scarlett halter that clung to and accentuated her already perfect curves. Emmett was graceful as well, much to my surprise with his size, very much more than I was. He dipped Rosalie with her resting on his bent knee, swaying her from side to side, half a circle movement. It was as though watching something beautiful in slow motion, her blonde curly hair falling on her shoulders as she leaned her head back, elongating her neck. How her right leg looked to be hitched in the air onto his hip, causing the deep slit in her dress to fall and reveal her pale, perfectly shaped legs.

Edward's momentarily distorted expression caught my attention. Suddenly, realization dawned over me as I looked down upon myself. How foolish I must have been, dancing with Jacob and catching his scent when I knew that over half of my guests found it a foul stench. "Oh Edward, I - I'm sorry. I must smell horribly now. I shouldn't have danced with him, I - " He pressed two fingers gently to my lips, silencing me.

"Bella, love, nothing could keep me from wanting you by my side. Not even the stench of Jacob Black." My lips formed a smile at his words once he'd finished with a small chuckle. Still, I persisted that I go wash up at least a bit, but he refused to let me, claiming that I could wash up shortly once the reception was over. We danced quite a few more times together, I danced once with Emmett and Jasper, and once even with Alice to an upbeat song. Surprisingly, with how fast we were moving(not really considering how fast Alice really could be if she hadn't restrained herself), I was surprised that the heels hadn't caught and caused me to fall on my face. The day was more joyous than a day I could remember before. Everyone was smiling and laughing among each other, they all looked so happy.

A pang hit me as I realized that soon I would be the cause for some of their despair once I was changed. Renee, Charlie, they would believe I was dead. Their little girl, they would believe that I'd lost my life, that they'd never see me again until parting from death themselves. And even then, they would only be even more broken to discover that I would still not be there to greet them. The thought pained me deeply, but I didn't want it to ruin my mood, I had some time to think about that later, not on my wedding day.

Finally after saying goodbye to the guests as they left, Edward told me he'd be packing his bags. He told me to take my time showering, that we had time before catching the plane. I hadn't realized that we'd needed to leave for the honeymoon immediately. Alice already packed mine for me, assuming that I would forget, and that I wouldn't pack the lingerie that she'd bought me. She brought me upstairs where I bathed and scrubbed myself free of werewolf scent, though I partly wished to keep Jacob's smell on me, not knowing the next time it would be on me again. Finally once Alice 'okayed' me of stench, I changed into a t-shirt and jeans before pulling my hair into a ponytail.

When I came downstairs, I found Edward to have already put all of our bags in the car to leave. We said our goodbyes to the family, and took off to spend our first trip away as husband and wife. Even wider of a smile was now plastered on my face. That sound couldn't get old in my mind. I clutched Edward's hand as he drove down the road, we both knew it wouldn't take very long to reach the airport. Once we did, I stared in shock at the flight track board and to where Edward was leading me. "Edward! I can't believe this! Venice? This is amazing!" I leaped into his arms, he let out a small chuckle.

Venice, Italy. One of the few places I'd told him I'd always wanted to visit. Corny it may sound, but from what I've read and pictures, the place is simply beautiful. Even if it was close to Volterra, I had my thoughts about why Edward would have let us come so close to the city with me still not being changed yet. Though, he told me it was going to be fine, and that the Volturi had nothing to worry about. Of course, I believed him and all worry left my mind as we boarded the plane.

Walking to our seats, Edward graciously offered me the window seat. "Thank you," I said appreciatively to him, he flashed his pearly white teeth at me in a grin. It didn't take as long as I thought it would to reach our destination. Time never seemed very long when Edward was with me, it seemed to zoom right by me. I feared that if I wasn't changed soon, that time was going to pass me when I was least expecting, and I would be far too old to consider myself for Edward. I knew he was trying to stall me, to find time. But I couldn't wait much longer for eternity.

Arriving at the hotel, I unpacked my things alone. Desperately I wanted Edward by me, but I knew he needed to go hunting. I blushed everytime I thought of this. Even to get Edward to do this was remarkable - with my being still human a factor in our relationship - but I was happy nonetheless, even if I wasn't a vampire yet. At long last I was getting the experience I'd been wanting with Edward, and now he had no way of backing out. After all, he did promise. I smiled, getting giddier by the minute.

What the hell, I thought, while heading towards the bathroom with a small bag I retrieved from my suitcase. It was the Victoria's Secret bag that Alice had secretly put in my suitcase, I had discovered it while unpacking. There was no reason I shouldn't at least try it on, just for fun before Edward got back. If I liked it, I might consider wearing it, but I probably wouldn't. More than likely, I'd just put it back in the bag, but it was worth a shot anwyways.

I gaped at myself as I looked in the mirror. I didn't know if I felt as though I looked good...or if I wanted to burst out in laughter at how utterly ridiculous I looked. The stretch satin babydoll went down just a tiny bit of my thigh, if sitting wrong, could show a hell of a lot. Especially that it had a slit up what side you would say it had. It was a bright baby blue color, with an even lighter lace trimming. Triangle cups held my small breasts, covering them fully, despite the v-neck. My hair still remained pinned up in a bun from earlier, showing off my neck.

Okay, enough with the insane ideas that I would wear this. I closed my eyes, ready to lift it over my head when I heard a voice chuckle. "I thought that was supposed to be my job," Startled, I turned around, cursing that I had forgotten about the door. Edward stood leaning against the doorframe, smiling at me. I suddenly felt self-conscious, looking down at my attire. "If I would have known you had this - "

"Alice bought it," I said instantly, beginning to laugh at how weird that sounded. Yes, Edward, your sister picked out sexy lingerie to help the sexually-idiotic Bella seduce you. Thank goodness, he didn't say anything about it, though I could tell he was contemplating the idea.

He walked over to me, and put his arms around my waist. The feel of his icy cold hands sent shivers down my spine, but I was too distracted to even notice. Suddenly, I felt his lips on my cheek, and I sighed. My eyes closed with my mouth still forming a smile, glad that my hair was still up as his lips found their way to my ear. Giggling as he nibbled on my earlobe, I elongated my neck, urging him to continue his path. He gladly complied, placing feathery kisses along down my neck to my collar bone. I could easily feel his arousal pressing into my thigh.

"Mmfm, bed," he mumbled, causing me to chuckle. I took his hand, leading him to the bed as I sat down at the foot of it. Edward's lips found their way back to mine, and as I was excited to find out, they weren't restrained or tense like our past kisses. This was completely free, letting it run wild. I licked along his bottom lip, and he allowed my tongue in. I kissed him before raising his shirt, revealing his pale chest. I scooted back as we made our way to the front of the bed, never breaking lip contact. He lifted off my babydoll (goodness, Alice spent all that money, and I barely wore it five minutes) over my head before tossing it to the side.

Edward gazed upon my body for a moment. A blush crept over my cheeks, as I was suddenly aware of my nakedness. Of course, it was Edward, and he was my husband, but he'd never seen me naked before. He stroked my jawline with his hand, smiling at me. "Bella, there's no reason to be embarrassed." He said, continuing what he had started earlier. His kissing from my collar bone continued down to my breasts, as I fumbled with the button of his pants. I moaned as he suckled on my hardened nipple, making sure not to bite too hard in case to injure me with his teeth.

I blushed even more as I finally rid him of his boxers, and viewed him. Just as expected, he had the body of a god, I could feel myself become more aroused. Trying not to be self-conscious, I took him in my hand, causing him to groan. The reaction made me even more pleased. I couldn't believe that someone like me could do this to him. I gasped as his fingers found themselves in my most private place. "I'm not hurting you, am I?" He asked, worried. Quickly, I shook my head no. How could he believe that he was causing me pain? I moaned, ceasing his questions.

Before I knew it, he was kissing down from my stomach and found his lips farther down. I moaned even louder as I felt his tongue go in and out. "Edward, please" I begged. His head now returned back to mine, and I arched my back, pressing my chest into his. He brushed a strand of hair out of my face, looking at me with uncertainty, "Are you sure?" I nodded, more certain than ever. This was what I had always wanted, this was finally our experience together to share. Even as a human, I was happy to be able to do this. We were finally becoming one together. Edward stopped for a moment as I winced, "Should I stop?"

"No, no. Please don't." I begged him to continue. A little pain was nothing. "I love you," I gasped loudly. A bit later and we lay in each others arms, me drifting off to sleep in the arms of my angel. "I love you Edward Cullen," I yawned.

"And I love you, Isabella Cullen." He smiled, planting a kiss on my forehead.
