Edward's POV

"What the fuck?" He huffed out as he walked out of Rosalie's room,still feeling the taste of her lips against his. Walking into his room, he slammed his door shut and turned down the volume on his stereo before turning it off. Walking over to his bed,Edward flopped down on it. Letting out a sigh,he closed his eyes as he attempted to wrap his head around what had just happened. Closing his eyes, he began thinking. Suddenly her laughter filled his ears...

Flashback; 10 years ago

Rosalie beamed as she began giggling,waiting for Esme to finished tying the small ties on the back of her dress. Esme smiled as she passed by Edward to leave the room. Moving out of the doorway,he closed the door behind him. He looked her up and down, with a small smile across his face. Running his hand through his hair as he noticed that Rosalie had seen him look at her.

She let out another small giggle, "How do I look?" She asked him as she did a spin for him in her bedroom, she had ribbons tied in her hair,pulling back the sides as she rest of it flowed past her shoulders and down her back. A vision of beauty in white. Even though she was the furthest thing from pure, Edward made sure he didn't tell Rosalie that because it would automatically make her think of Royce King and what he had done to her. Today was her wedding day,one of many, and he had to make sure that she was happy.

He would give her away as he always did, even though Carlisle offered every time. Rosalie always insisted Edward do it, since he was the one that actually helped her throughout her transition into a vampire-at least that's what she would tell him.

He would walk her down the aisle,instead of being the one waiting at the end. When the priest asked politely 'Who gives away this woman?' Rosalie would gently squeeze his arm with her hand as Edward replied 'I do.' Something that for the past fifty years killed him to say. Even though he had known Rosalie longer than fifty years,it was fifty years ago that he realized that had was in love with her. That he had always been in love with her and it had broken his heart the same time he finally felt complete.

"Earth to Edward." Rosalie said as she was now standing in front of him, waving her hand back and forth in front of his face.

He shook his head bringing himself out of his thoughts, "Breathtaking. As always Rosalie." He told her in a soft voice as he pushed himself off of her closed door.

Rosalie beamed at his comment, "I think this is the one day you actually compliment me and mean it." She told him as she walked back over to her vanity mirror and took a seat. Letting out an unnecessary ragged breath as she began brushing her hair. "Ugh, I don't know why I'm so nervous. This isn't my first time doing this." She said putting down her brush and shaking her hands,attempting to shake her nerves away.

Turning around on her bench,she looked over at Edward and tilted her head to the side. "Listen to me going on and on. What's wrong with you,you have that look that you're trying to hide something." She told him,Edward laughed.

Even though he had the power to read minds,Rosalie could always read him like a book. "It's your wedding day,it's supposed to be about you. Don't worry about me, I'll have it together when I walk you down the aisle." He said in a reassuring tone as he watched her get up from her bench and walk over to him.

Standing in front of him, she gently wrapped her arms around his midsection, "I want you to know that it really means a lot to me that you give me away every time." She said,Edward feeling the vibrations of her voice against his chest. He hesitantly wrapped his arms around her and brought her closer.

"I know Rose, believe me I know." He told her as he gently kissed the top of her head. Watching Rosalie pull away from him,he smiled as he looked down at her.

"It really does Edward. I know how hard it is, you giving me away over and over again. I've seen recently in the past fifty years that every time I have a wedding,you get that look on your face like you want to hide something. I know what it is, you're afraid that you aren't going to have your own wedding. I can tell you right now that's not true. You just have to open your heart up Edward." She told him as she gently placed her hand over the place where his heart lay frozen.

"I know that this doesn't work anymore,but that doesn't mean you can't love. You just have to be careful with it, because it can also break. Believe me, I know." Rosalie said thinking back to her first years as a vampire, when she loved Edward with everything she had. Shaking her head Rosalie looked back up at him. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to think about it." Rosalie told him as she pulled away.

Edward stood there a bit taken back, she had loved him but he was too stupid to realize he felt the same way. Watching her walk over to her her dresser,she grabbed the bouquet of white roses as she let out a slow breath. "OK,I just have to keep breathing like a human and I'll be fine-as long as I don't forget my vows." She told him as Edward heard her beginning to rest them in her head.

(Edward hearing Rosalie's thoughts)

'I started falling in love with you the first day I met you-No that's cheesy. Come on Rosalie. Get it together. You can do this just breathe.' Rosalie paused for a moment and then continued, 'I recently read a scripture- "Love is always patient and kind. It is never jealous. Love is never boastful nor conceited. It is never rude or selfish. It does not take offense and it is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in others peoples sins but delights in the truth. It is always ready to excuse,to trust,to hope and to endure whatever comes." Those words never connected with me until I fell in love with you, because you are all of those things and more. You are patient and you are kind and you are generous and you are selfless. Whether you actually want to show people who you truly are, I know the real you and I embrace it. And I know with you and I together, anything is possible. You were the only one that saw something others didn't. Into my heart-my soul even,you showed me that loving someone wasn't wrong,that it wasn't something you had to be ashamed of. You opened my heart to the possibility of love. Then you went and stole it,but I don't want it back. My heart and love are forever and always yours. I'm going to love you with everything I have. You are me and I am you. God split our soul in half so when we found one another we would become whole. I love you Edwa-Emmett.' Rosalie's thoughts stopped as she paused for a moment and quickly glanced over at Edward,hoping he hadn't seen anything or heard her.

Suddenly Edward saw an image flashing in Rosalie's head. She was standing at the alter, the priest had just said 'you may now kiss the bride'. Leaning in towards the groom, Rosalie gave him a soft gentle kiss,trying not to get carried away. As she pulled away, Rose looked over at the groom-it was Edward. Taking a step backwards,Edward was stunned by the thought and image in her head, "Rosalie."

She shook her head,not wanting to hear what he had to say. She already felt like a fool for thinking about him when she was marrying Emmett. "Rose-if you hadn't had found Emmett,do you think this would be our wedding? That Carlisle would be the one that walked down the aisle to me?" He asked, before she could answer him.

There was a knock on the door, "It's time." Carlisle said from the other side of the door.

"We better get down there." Rosalie said,holding her bouquet in one hand and her dress in the other to make sure her train didn't get caught beneath her feet, as she walked over to the door and opened it.

Edward sighed as he walked over to her, searching for her thoughts for the answer he longed for. The only thoughts he heard were ones that pertained to Emmett. Taking her hand,he looped it through his arm as they walked out of the bedroom, down the stairs and towards the backyard. The sky was full of clouds since it was close to evening, so it was perfect to have an outdoor wedding without having to worry about 'sparkling problems'. Pausing out of view of the wedding aisle,Edward closed his eyes as he let out a soft ragged sigh. He felt his heart drop as the small orchestra began playing "here comes the bride", looking over at Rosalie he saw her looking back at him with a smile that reached her eyes.

Giving her a small smile back,he began walking with her as they slowly headed down the aisle. To Edward, each step he took felt as though his feet were permanently trapped in hundred pound cinder blocks. Looking at Emmett with Carlisle and Jasper behind him, Alice and Esme on the opposite side, at the end of aisle-he couldn't help but think that it should be himself waiting as Carlisle led Rosalie to him. Edward knew in the bottom of his heart that Rosalie was still in love with him and he couldn't help but continue thinking of the image that had been plastered in Rosalie's mind back in her bedroom of the two of them.

Finally reaching the end of the aisle, Edward looked at the priest and waited, "Who gives away this bride today?" He asked.

Clearing his throat quietly,he felt Rosalie gently squeeze his arm as if on cue. "I do." Edward answered in a monotone voice as he gently placed his hand over Rosalie's and trying to hold on for as long as he could. Leaning over,he gave Rosalie a gentle kiss on the cheek as he led her over to Emmett. Taking his stance behind Emmett and in between Carlisle,he couldn't keep his eyes off of Rosalie. Noticing every little thing she did- letting out a beautiful sigh, biting her bottom lip softly out of a nervous habit or when she didn't know what to say.

He stood there quietly as he felt an emotion overwhelm him, he shook it off as he listened to Rosalie and Emmett exchange their vows. To his surprise Rosalie didn't say anything she had recited upstairs in her head,nothing even close.

She simply said, "I love you Emmett. You understand me, and you challenge me to be the best person I can be. I feel safe with you, and free to make mistakes without criticism and judgment. I am blessed to have you in my life,to be your wife. I'm yours for as long as you'll have me around." Of course Rosalie would do anything to lighten a serious mood.

As for Emmett's vows, "You are beautiful inside and out,but your beauty was the last thing I noticed. The very first thing I fell in love with was your voice,it was so soft I thought you were an angel and I was in heaven. You have stolen my heart Rosalie Hale. I am going to love you with everything I have and more. I know I'm not the best with words,I just need you to know that I love you. I'm in love with you. Every time I look into your eyes I see the real you. The vulnerable girl that doesn't want anyone else to find her, just know that I have and I plan on loving her and protecting her with everything I have." Edward looked over at Rosalie as he saw her fan herself a bit,trying to avoid the tears(even if they would never come). After the priest announced them husband and wife,everyone clapped as they shared their 'first' kiss as a married couple. Watching them walk down the aisle, Edward followed shortly after-solo, as Carlisle and Esme with Alice and Jasper behind them,followed Edward back down the aisle.

Walking into the tents where the reception was being held, Edward let out a sigh,he unbuttoned his tux jacket as he slipped if off and walked over to his chair. Sitting in between Jasper and Carlisle as Esme and Alice sat on the opposite side of them. He pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to get a hold of himself.

"Are you alright son?" Carlisle asked as he placed a hand on his shoulder to get his attention.

"Yeah,just this food is repulsive. The only downside to inviting humans." He muttered as he pushed his plate away from him After Rosalie and Emmett shared their first dance,which Edward missed since he had to excuse himself to use the rest room. It was about an hour and a half into the reception,the sun had set since it had been an evening wedding. It was night outside, Edward walked over to the entrance of the tent and looked up at the sky.

Lost in his thoughts about everything,he tried to stay away from Jasper with his damn emotion powers he was bound to pick up something that Edward was feeling and he didn't feel up to make an excuse for it. Unbuttoning his cuff links,he rolled up his sleeves to his elbows as he began rubbing his eyes in frustration,he felt someone gently tap his shoulder. Collecting himself quickly,Edwards looked over his shoulder to see Rosalie standing behind him.

"Hey,you alright? Carlisle said something about the food getting to you." She said with a worried look on her face.

"No,it's fine. Just so much of it at one time is enough to make me gag,but I'm fine. I promise." Edward told her in a reassuring tone.

"If you say so, you've been kind of distant all night. Can you spare a few minutes to dance with your favorite sister?" She asked. Edward looked away playfully and then back down at Rosalie.

"Favorite sister? No, but for you-I do." Edward told her. Gently taking her hand,he led her to the dance floor. Placing his hand on her back,Rose put her hand on his shoulder as the began slow dancing.

"So where does this wedding rank out of the rest?" He asked trying to make conversation.

"Well I think it ranks about fourth. Can never beat the first wedding obviously. Then we had the Vegas wedding,which the whole family loved whether you want to admit it or not. Then the wedding before this,even though it was a bit of a disaster." She said as she shook her head, feeling slightly embarrassed.

"I remember that wedding, the priest was a bit drunk. The entertainment was late and you broke a heel. You fell into a bush outside the church. Everyone else said because it was night out that you missed that step,when you and I both know that dress was too long for you. But you insisted on wearing it because you wanted your first church wedding to be perfect. I couldn't help but laugh at you when I helped you out of that bush." Rosalie cut him him off with a slap to the chest and gave him a glare.

Laughing a bit,Edward continued "One because we're completely graceful,I still don't know how you managed to fall. Two, when you began examining your dress,I noticed that you had some dirt on your face and flowers in your hair. All of your perfecting through out the day went out the window and I couldn't help but notice you looked absolutely beautiful at that moment." Edward said as he looked down at her.

"I have some questions I want to ask you about earlier in your bedroom,but it's your wedding night and Emmett is anxious to leave for your honeymoon. So I guess I'll to wait." He told her as he continued dancing with her 'What's another fifty years' Edward added in his head. As the song ended,the two of them stopped dancing. Leaning down, he gave her a hug and kiss on the forehead as Emmett asked if he could cut in. "Sure,I know you two want to leave for the honeymoon soon. Have fun." He said as he walked over to his chair and grabbed his jacket. Walking out of the tent,he headed inside the house and turned on the t.v., trying to drain out everyone else's thoughts.

Flashback;end

Opening his eyes,Edward shook his head. "No wonder you're a fucking idiot. You always go after her at the most inappropriate times. It was her wedding,to your brother." He muttered to himself as he got off his bed. Opening his window,he jumped down and headed towards the forest. Once finding Rosalie's scent,he began running towards it. After a while,he lost the scent since he had waited too long to go after her. Closing his eyes,he began running as he heard her thoughts.

Rosalie's POV

'Stupid idiot girl. You have Emmett who loves you. Just be with him, put Edward out of your mind. It can't happen,he's already broken your heart. Do you really want to go through that again?' Rosalie thought as she closed her eyes. Opening them again,she looked over at the lake that sat before her. It was about ten miles away from the house,but it was the furthest she could push herself to go before she finally fell to her knees. Looking up at the birds in the sky,she wished that she could just fly away from her problems without a worry. She knew that wasn't possible,Rosalie had to go back to Emmett and eventually face Edward once again. Letting out a sigh,she knew she wasn't alone.

Looking over her shoulder,she saw Edward standing five feet from her. Before he could say anything to her,Rosalie was standing in front of him. Slowly,she wrapped her arms around his neck as she felt his arms immediately and instinctively wrap around her waist and pulled her closer to him. Leaning her forehead into his,she closed her eyes. "It took you long enough." Rosalie said softly as she opened her eyes for a moment to let her lips find his. Closing them again she kissed him deeply,running her fingers through her hair as she fisted it into balls.

"What are we going to do?" She asked as she pulled away from his lips. "I can't hurt Emmett. We just can't do this Edward. I'm sorry." Rosalie said,basically having the conversation with herself. She didn't want to Edward to say anything,she knew if he did,she would end up cheating on Emmett and breaking his heart. Closing her eyes, trying to hide the pain she was in from him. "I love you,I'm in love with you. I have been since your first snide comment to me the moment I woke up, and I'm always going to be in love with you. I promise." She whispered against his lips as she kissed him one last time.


(Author's note:Hey,it's not a cliffhanger this time-even though it may seem like it-it's not. I don't condone cheating,but it makes for an interesting storyline. So I'll let you guys decide if you want me to make it a triangle or have things with Rose/Em fade out. Let me know in a review. Writing chapter 5 as we speak. Review letting me know what you think and all that jazz.)
