Chapter 4 – The Wedding

It was so hectic in the Cullen house. Esme and Renee were helping me get my dress on and the hair and make-up designers were trying to get me to stand still so that they could do there job. My hair and face was being tugged one way while my body was tugged the other. I groaned and moaned as they kept trying to get the dress and everything else perfect. I felt like I was Alice's barbie doll again.

When they finally got the dress to where they liked it I let out a heavy sigh and sat down.

"NO!" Alice screamed

I immidately stood up "What?"

"Don't sit down! You will ruin the dress!" Alice yelled again.

I let out a heavy sigh "Alice, please just let me sit down. These heals are killing me." I complained

"Fine! But don't whine because there are wrinkles! Cause then I'll just say told you so." Alice said turning around and heading out the door.

When she opened the door I could see Edward trying to catch a peek "NO! You can't look at the bride before the wedding! It's bad luck!"

"I don't believe in that superstitious stuff Alice." Edward complained

"I don't care! You are not gonna see Bella before the wedding!" Alice yelled

I looked over at Alice and then Edward looked at me. I smiled and made a pouty face and mouthed "Im sorry." Edward smiled and shook his head. Alice slammed the door shut and then all I could hear was Alice's yelling getting distant and a shuffle down the stairs. I figured she was pushing Edward down the stairs to get him away from the door.

When she walked back in she let out a sigh and looked over at me and shook her head.

"What?" I asked

"Your not helping! I know he saw you!" Alice said

"He did not!" I lied

"Your a horrible liar Bella, so don't even try." Alice said with a smile

I let out a heavy sigh and let the make-up and hair designers finish their work.

When they were finally finished I let out a heavy sigh and walked over to the full length mirror. I let out a gasp not believing that the person staring back at me was me. I almost looked as beautiful as Rosalie. Alice came over to stand next to me and we no looked like we could be related. I smiled and Alice grabbed my hand.

"It's time to go see your husband!" Alice announced.

I smiled and bit my lip nervous. Alice rubbed the top of my hand to comfort me.

When we reached the bottom of the stairs, Charlie's face was in awe. His mouth dropped and his eyes were wide. I blushed bright red as I saw his face.

"You look beautiful Bells!" Charlie complemented holding out his arm to me

"Thanks Charlie." I said taking his arm.

Alice flipped my veil over my face then got to the front of the line. She was my maid of honor. Renee was behind her, then Esme, then Rosalie. Then Charlie with me on his arm.

My heart began to pound out of my chest as I heard the wedding music go on and Alice start walking forward. I was so nervous. I couldn't believe this was actually happening. I was marrying the most beautiful guy in the world. I loved him and to my amazement he loved me back to.

As I reached the backyard where everyone was, everyone's mouth dropped in shock and amazement. Jacob's face had just pure shock and awe. I could tell that he loved me even more now. That he thought I was even more beautiful. I could also see that he wished he was the one in Edward's place, and Edward in his. That made a smack of guilt hit me.

Wait! What was I thinking! This is my day! I am not gonna let stupid, jealous, Jake ruin my day! He was gonna have to deal with the situation.

I grabbed Charlie's arm tighter nervous then ever. I couldn't believe I was actually getting married. This was like a nightmare and a dream come true all at the same time.

When I reached the priest, Charlie let go of my arm flipped my veil and kissed me on the forehead. I smiled as he gave me to Edward. He flipped my veil back over and I walked over to Edward my heart about ready to pound out of my chest. I could tell Edward was trying to hold back not taking me then and there in front of everyone.

We grabbed each other's hands and the priest went on with his speech.

When he got to the vows my heart started to pound out of my chest. Edward grabbed my hands and squeezed them gently. He looked down into my eyes and smiled my favorite half smile.

"Bella, I never thought that I would find anyone that I could marry or be with for the rest of my life." He smiled when he said the rest of his life "Then, I found you. You came into my life and everything seem to become so much clear. I knew that I should not be with you, but I couldn't resist it when you loved me back. When I decided to just give in and let you be in my life, I was the most happiest man on earth. I will be here with you no matter what. As long as you want me."

I could feel the hot tears streaming down my face. They were tears of joy though.

Edward smiled and turned behind him and Emmett gave him the ring. He swiftly slipped it onto my finger and smiled.

When I finally swallowed my tears I looked up at Edward "When I came here I thought that you had hated me. At first that didn't bother me, but then I came to realize that it had hurt and that I had some weird obsession with you." I laughed when I heard Charlie start chuckling next to me. "When you finally started to talk to me, I began to realize that I loved you. You were like my other half. I loved and still love you more then anyone in this world." I could hear Jacob wince at that. "I will always want and love you."

I turned behind me and Alice gave me the ring. I grabbed the ring and tried to put it on his finger but, my hands were shaking to much. Edward laughed and grabbed the ring and slipped it on himself.

I could see Charlie rolling his eyes when he saw that happen. Jacob was laughing at me in the corner. I glared at him and he stopped.

"Do you Edward Cullen take Bella Swan to be your lawful wedded wife? To love and to hold, through sickness and health, until death due you part?" the priest asked

"I do." Edward said with a smile.

"Do you Bella Swan take Edward Cullen to be your lawful wedded husband? To love and to hold, through sickness and health, until death due you part?" the Priest asked me.

"I do." I said looking up at Edward.

"I now pronounce you Mr. And Mrs. Cullen. You may now kiss the bride Edward." the Priest said with a smile.

I smiled as his face got closer to mine.

When his lips finally met mine I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer. He pulled away swiftly and I was deafened by all the clapping in the room. I looked up at Edward and he was shaking his head with a smile.

He leaned down next to my ear and whispered "Time for the honeymoon."

I smiled as he swiftly picked me up bridal style and walked up the stairs to his room. I let out a sigh as he gently set me down on the bed. I looked down at my finger and still couldn't believe that I was married to Edward. He laid down next to me and wrapped his arm around me. He started to sing my lullaby in my ear and I couldn't help but fall asleep against his chest. I would savor this moment, it was probably the last time I would fall asleep.
