Chapter Three

Alice's POV

I smiled as the vision flashed across my eyes.

Max and Fang are standing at the front of a rundown church with her hand in his. A tall preacher is going on and on about faithfulness and how this is not something that can be undone. (Apparently, he's never heard of divorce.)

Max is dressed in a white t-shirt that fits her curves, whitewash jeans, and her ever popular black combat boots. Fang is in his usual attire of all black; black button down, black jeans, and black sneakers. Although he has a white bowtie that shows that he is dressed up for the occasion.

Edward glanced at me, eyebrows raised. He obviously hadn't been paying attention to the oldest Flock members recently. Though, I have to admit, I expected Fang to be the one to propose, I was still happy that he said yes when Max asked.

I didn't see that one coming. Edward thought to me. He had gotten much better at his mental abilities with Angel around to help him. It was kind of funny that a one hundred and eighteen year old was getting advice from an eleven year old.

You know I can't let that happen. At least not like that. I thought back. In my mind I showed him my plans for Max and Fang's wedding. It was relatively similar to Nessie and Jake's but with a different color scheme.

Max won't want you to make a spectacle out of it. That's why you had a vision of them in a rundown church with casual clothes. They don't want anything more than that. Edward tried to advise me, but my thoughts had already come up with the perfect dress for Max.

We'll see about that. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go talk to Nessie. I thought, dismissing the conversation.

I found Nessie in her closet, her beautiful wedding dress on the hanger, as she was pulling her pale pink shirt over her head. She smiled at me as she smoothed it out over her jeans.

"Hey, Aunt Alice." She said lightly.

"Nessie…I have something to tell you and I don't want you to get upset." I said and I could hear her heartbeat accelerate.

"It…its not Jake is it? Oh, god. Is he hurt? Did you have a vision? Is he going to die? Please, Alice, don't try to shelter me. I can handle it. What's wrong?" She asked in a panic.

I shook my head to calm her fears before her imagination ran wild. I always said she was too creative for her own good.

"It's about Max." I said and she calmed down a little bit, though she still looked worried. "Well…she just proposed to Fang and I had a vision of them is some seedy hotel church exchanging vows and I just cannot stand by and let that happen."

Nessie giggled and rolled her eyes at me. "It seems to me that that's what they want. They have always been simple people and no amount of time living with us is going to change that."

"I just can't allow them to have such a tacky wedding. This is the day that they will always look back on; I cannot let it be a disaster." I said determinedly.

"Well, have you even asked them what they want?" Nessie asked, her eyes landing on her perfect gown.

"I know that Max wants a Princess gown." I said matter-of-factly.

Nessie giggled. "Now that I can't see."

"You didn't see the way she was staring at your dress." I replied. "I swear, some people around here need to start paying attention."

"Well, leave Max and Fang out of your war path. Max wouldn't want to make a spectacle out of this." Nessie said and I was reminded of the same words coming from a different person.

"Just like your father." I muttered. "Fine, but I won't promise anything. I want her day to be just as special as yours."

"Alice! You are a genius!" My beautiful niece exclaimed as she tried to rush out the door. She stopped in the middle of her room, leaving me still in the closet, and turned around.

"Thank you, sweetie. But what for?" I asked.

"A double wedding!" She said happily. "I have to go ask Max first of course, but it'll be wonderful! We already have everything for my wedding, just need a dress for Max and another tux for Fang. That way, they don't feel super pressured and I get to share my special day with my best friend."

"Oh, Nessie, it's a wonderful idea." I said and that was all the encouragement she needed. She darted out the door and towards Max's room before I would have been able to stop her if I wanted to.
