Technically this shouldn't exist, but I'm a little bit vain and I like to read over my stories when I bored. Just because I know they'll turn out the way I want to them to. So as I was reading over the first instalment of this story I realised I had one more glimpse into this world that I shared with all of you. I hope you enjoy it and I'm 99.99% sure that this is the very last instalment.

Edward shuffled awkwardly on his feet. For all the years that he had been part of formal ceremonies he never truly got the swing of them. Plus this was the first time he would play this kind of role, the only time. His mother clucked around him trying to fix his unruly hair.

He was nervous. All these months, years of work, hard work, were coming up to this moment. What felt like millions of people were on the other side of the door waiting for their appearance to signify the beginning of the proceedings.

He had a lump in his throat and he felt like he was about to break out in a sweat.

"Breathe" Esme whispered to her son who nodded. "We've practised this over and over." She told him. She was so proud of her son, in everything he ever did in his career. But in the past year he had come on leaps and bounds in areas he had never shown interests in before, taking on challenges that they were sure he never would have conquered if it wasn't for one particular factor.

"Is it hot in here?" He asked reaching for a paper towel and dabbing at his forehead, a sheen of sweat had appeared on his forehead.

"Maybe a little." Esme said adjusting his suit jacket. "Everything will be fine." She told him as she reached and fixed the pocket of his suit jacket. Normally Edward would tell her he could manage himself but his hands were shaking far too much to be able to manage himself. He was thankful that he had people here to help him through today.

In the past Edward had presented controversial scientific theories and projects to stuffy collegial boards, but this was his toughest challenge yet.

And his normal confidant was otherwise preoccupied right now, so he had to rely on the help of his Mommy. Though he would much prefer his beloved. Who wouldn't though in these situations?

"It has to be better than fine mother this is the most important day of my life." He exclaimed the sweat appearing on his forehead again and she nodded. "Do we have any water? I have this weird taste in my mouth." He said stretching his tongue out of his mouth as he tried to get the taste of his mouth.

"What are you nervous about?" she asked him. As a neurobiologist she knew this problem was entirely psychological. He was on a high of hormones that were pulsing through his system. The adrenaline pulsing through his veins was what was causing the shaking and the sweating, aswell as the bitter taste.

He would be fine once it was over, Esme deduced as she handed him a bottle of water.

She just hoped her husband didn't come. She wouldn't put it past Edward to demand his father take his blood pressure which at the height it was, would cause him to get omitted into hospital. Yeah hopefully Alice was doing a sufficient job at detaining her father.

"Better?" She asked him as he chugged the bottle of water and he nodded. "Now tell me what's bugging you?"

"Mother you know I'm a perfectionist." He told her and she nodded. "What if...?" he questioned when she shushed him. Twenty four years of age with degrees and PhD and his mother was shushing him. And surprisingly Edward wasn't surprised.

"Edward it's going to be fine." She said rolling her eyes, perfectionist? More like a worry wart "I've been in this business for a long time and let's just say you're in much better condition than your father was at this stage of his life." She explained remembering how nervous Carlisle was. "Now just relax and enjoy this Sweetheart." She told him kissing her cheek.

"Thanks Mom." He said hugging her. She smiled against as she hugged her little boy. Her surprise Baby as she always called him. From the time he had been inside her he had been a surprise, just magically appearing on the sonogram one day with his sister.

"You'll be great." She told him. "Now I have to go." She said. "I'll see you later." She added "And if you see your father, just send him my way." She said and Edward nodded, mentally noting that if he saw his father in the next couple of minutes he would ask to borrow the blood pressure cuff, he was convinced he was on the verge of either having a stroke or a heart attack. At least with his parents, the problems would be sussed out quickly.

He nodded and sighed as she left the room. He stood in front of the mirror.

He cleared his throat and was about to begin practising for the big moment when there was a knock on the door. He looked up and told the person they could come in.

Emmett, the eldest Cullen, stuck his head in the door. He had run into his mother in the hallway while walking with his father, they were both on their way to check on Edward. His Dad, had a stetescope in hand, thankfully Esme had distracted Carlisle with the idea of getting a drink.

He smiled at his brother, finally he was doing something that Emmett understood and that he could talk to him about. Like if Edward needed help, he could come to his brother for once. Finally Emmett could step up and be a big brother to his little brother, besides from dealing with bullies. Because let's just say as Edward got older his bullies morphed from football players to ancient or corrupt scientists, who didn't want to see change for fear it would diminish their life's work.

"Edward it's time to go." His brother said Edward nodded walking over to him. "Dude this is a cake walk." He said but Edward looked unsure.

"I'm not sure." He said and Emmett chuckled to himself. His brother may have fancy degrees and what not but Emmett knew how to read people. It's why he had gotten into the police force, he could tell when some punk sitting across him was on the verge of squealing, and he could tell his little brother was at risk of fainting.

"What are you scared about? I've seen you do a lot bigger things than this." Emmett said knowing that this were always better when you talk about them.

"Nothing is bigger than this." Edward said. "I'm scared of not being good enough." He said putting his head down.

"If you weren't good enough you wouldn't have gotten this far." He said clapping his hand on his younger brother's shoulder. "Now come on, stand up straight." He said "And you'll see this stuff is easy."

Edward nodded and took his position at the front of the room, everyone in attendance was already in their seats. It was then Edward felt his palms getting sweaty again.

But that didn't matter, he had to ignore it. His mother was right he had to relax and enjoy this. He was certain it would only happen once in his life.

Everyone quietened down and it was time.

The music began and everyone's eyes trained on the back of the glue.

The doors at the end of the room and everyone stood up. Edward's eyes were fixed on those doors. Nothing could make him look away. Not even if someone told him he had won a Nobel Prize. He pushed his glasses up his nose. His mother and sister had tried to convince him to wear his contacts but Bella wouldn't hear of it.

He watched the rest of the procession come down the aisle, but he couldn't have cared less about that. The most important person in the world was yet to come. There were hushed gasps of awe as Bella appeared in the door, but he couldn't hear any of it. He couldn't see anything but her, a distinctive case of tunnel vision.

The minute he saw her everything was forgotten, the nerves, his symptoms, the fear that he would have a stroke or heart attack on the altar. It was all gone the minute her eyes connected with him. She was marrying him. She was going to be his wife. His. Forever.

Bella was stunning, wearing a dress that could only be described as Cinderella style, she used her wedding to dress up girlie than normal. Usually she was all for jeans or a skirt, but today was special and she wanted her fairy tale. She had her Prince Charming and they were getting their happily ever after. She hadn't been persuaded to go without her glasses either, well Edward wouldn't let her. In their opinion it added to the whole look. They were just being themselves, they rationalised that that was what made the most sense when it came to something like today.

She smiled at him as she walked down the aisle, her father's wheel chair electronically moving beside her. When they reached the end of aisle she leaned down and kissed her father's cheek, he leaned forward and grabbed my hand, and placed it with hers, before wheeling himself backwards to the place we had cleared for him.

Neither of them remembered much of the ceremony and sure who could blame them. All Edward knew was that he answered when prompted and that by the end of the short ceremony Bella was his wife.

And really could he ask for anything more?

The judge told him he could kiss his bride before Edward pulled her to him.

She smiled as she wrapped her around his neck and he leaned in and kissed her. She kissed him hungrily but he pulled away knowing they had an audience. However once they were behind closed doors he took advantage of the privacy.

"I love you." He murmured before kissing her. He lifted her up and pressed her against the wall. Her full skirt acted as a barrier between but Edward couldn't be deterred. He wanted to be as close to her as possible. It's what he had wanted all day. And finally he could do it.

"I love you too." She said crushing her lips against his against his. "I was so nervous and now I have no idea why..." She rambled as he placed a kiss on her palm and her ring finger.

"I was too." He whispered and she smiled. "But when I saw you it was gone." He said smiling at her.

"The same for me." She said, tears brimming. He chuckled and wiped away her tears with the pad of his thumbs. "I swear they're happy tears." She said and he laughed leaning in and kissing her.

"So how are you feeling Mrs. Cullen?" he asked her with a smile.

"Don't get too used to that." She said quirking her eyebrow at him which he found oh so sexy. In the year that they had been having sex Edward had learnt to appreciate everything about Bella and her body that was just so sensual. It was like they were made for each other and he couldn't wait to get her truly alone for their first night as husband and wife.

"Oh I won't soon to be Dr. Cullen." He said and she kissed him again. "We should really get going to the reception..." He said knowing that they would begin to be missed if they didn't get going now.

"Just one more minute." She said and he nodded tightening his hold on her.

"I do like how you think." He said kissing her.

"Edward, Bella..." Alice, Edward's twin asked coming into the room and stopped when she saw Bella wrapped around her brother. The fact that Edward had managed to speak to a member of the opposite sex baffled Alice, never mind the fact he had sex and was now married. She was still getting used to seeing her brother in love. Not that it was something she minded it. She was so happy for him. He deserved this happiness and Bella was perfect for him. Alice only wished that she didn't have to watch Bella be affectionate with Edward, like come on... that was her brother. "Oh Jeesh, you two have two weeks honeymoon to do this shit."

"Not really, we're going to study the rock pools on a private island off the coast of Brazil, that's very time consuming Alice." Bella explained and Edward nodded as she turned her head and kissed him.

"What?" Alice asked shocked they hadn't told her this part of the plan. "Most couples go away for a relaxing vacation for their honeymoon and your telling me you're going to spend two weeks searching through crabs and seaweed?"Alice asked, she would never understand those two not if she spent the rest of her life trying to figure it out, so she just let them on. They were happy so why not?

"It was Bella's idea. We both wanted to do some work on tidal pooling so that's why we decided on Brazil, we might stay a bit longer than two weeks." Edward explained putting his bride down on her feet. "You never know we might get a bit distracted." He added making Bella smirk.

"Just a little." Bella said before pinching Edward's ass ma king him blush and turn his face inwards on the top of her head.

"Gag me with a spoon." Alice said trying to hide her smirk. She was happy for her brother even if he and his new wife were fucking nauseating.

"Come on Alice you were a newlywed once." Bella said kissing her husband's cheek.

"Yeah but if I was never this nauseating." She explained and Edward rolled his eyes.

"Alright we're getting and going" Edward said grabbing Bella's hand and pulling her behind him. She laughed as he pulled her from the room they had been hiding in. "For someone so small she can be so bossy." He murmured making Bella laughed as they walked towards the reception hall.

"I have a theory that is has something to do with concentration and a feeling to compensate for lack of hate."

"You and your theories" He said before kissing her passionately.

"Don't pull me into your weird little foreplay there." Alice said and the newlyweds chuckled as they walked in the double doors and into a room decorated with all Bella's favourite types of flowers and white table clothes. It was simple but elegant just like Bella herself and that's what Edward loved and had hoped it would be.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, Dr. and Soon to be Dr. Cullen" Alice's husband Jasper announced over the microphone and everyone cheered. "And now Ladies and Gentlemen let's welcome the happy couple onto the floor for their first dance." He said and Edward smiled as he pulled her out onto the floor.

"I love you" He murmured as they twirled around the dance floor.

"I love you too." She said before kissing her new husband.

"Bella you make me so happy."

"Happier than I've ever been." She told him and he smiled. "I can't wait for tonight." She said.

"How long do we have to wait before we can leave here?" Edward asked and she laughed.

"Edward I have been forced into planning this thing for months and months. We're at least going to enjoy it for an hour before we leave." She told him and he sighed.

"Fine..." He pouted making her laugh. "But the minute we get out of here we're not going to talk to anyone for two whole weeks or more." He said "And I will be very busy making sure my new wife is very satisfied."

"Oh I have no doubt about that." She said kissing him. "Maybe we should get out of here sooner..." Bella said when the song changed.

"I think I'm about to lose you to my father so we probably should our escape sooner."

"Damn" She said before she was whisked away by her new father in law and then passed around the room from every man in attendance. Edward spent his time dancing with some women but mainly finding refugee with his new father in law Charlie. When Edward had moved in with Bella he had also moved in with Charlie and a unique friendship had come from the time they've spent with each other.

"She looks beautiful." Charlie said as Edward snuck him a drink, Charlie wasn't supposed to drink but today was a special occasion.

"Perfect" Edward said looking over at his new wife who was laughing as his brother twirled her around. "Are you gonna be okay with Sue?" he asked Charlie who blushed. "Oh I see we won't be missed."

"You won't" Charlie mumbled making Edward laugh. "Take care of her."

"I will" Edward said when he felt Charlie's good hand on his shoulder. He gave him a gentle squeeze and Edward nodded. "Promise"

"I always hoped she's meet a guy who..." He began when he stopped. "Who could take care of her? But still loved her. So I'm happy for her. And you. You're a good guy."

"Thanks Charlie, that means a lot." He said when he saw Bella had been freed from her dancing.

"What are my favourite men talking about?" she asked coming over. One of the most important things Edward ever did in Bella's opinion was in making a strong relationship with Charlie. It meant so much to her because her Dad for a long time had been her favourite person in the world, Edward only snuffed him out of first place by a scratch. The fact that two important people in her life had bonded well made her extremely happy.

"You" Edward said standing up and wrapping his arm around her waist. She kissed his cheek and her father rolled his eyes.

"Oh you just want one too." She said kissing his cheek. "So I'm told we need to get changed soon if we want to make our flight." She explained and Edward nodded.

"We'll see you before we leave Charlie Edward said grabbing his suit jacket and putting it over Bella's shoulders. They quickly snuck out of the reception hall.

"I clocked that at three hours." Edward told her and she sighed.

"Apparently getting married has boosted my popularity; we should have done this years ago." She teased and he kissed her. "I wonder if there's a strong correlation between the two."

"Stop with the dirty talk you." He said playfully spanking her ass. "And believe me had I known there was a one of you in the world I would have gone and found and force you to marry me."

"That's a little bit creepy don't you think?" she asked him as they got in the elevator. He loosed his tie from his neck as the doors closed.

"Not really, you would have folded once I told you who I was." He said and she nodded. "I was kidding."

"I'm not; I totally had a crush on you before I met you." She said and he looked at her in shock. "You did an interview with some magazine and it had your picture in it and I was just like 'woah, I need to find me a one of those'" She said with a smirk.

"And what do you know?" he smirked.

"Why do you think I was so excited when I saw you in that class?" she asked him leaning against him.

"Because you love a good project to sink your teeth into?" he asked her.

"Well that and I wanted to sink my teeth into you." She told him before sucking his earlobe into her mouth and biting on it.

The elevator dinged on their floor.

"How much time do we have before our flight leaves?" Edward asked.

"Enough" Bella murmured.

"Well I say we take advantage of this interlude. You know we do have a responsibility to make the most of every opportunity we are given." He told her and she nodded.

"That we do Dr. Cullen."
