"How do you know about vampires?" Riley asked incredulously.
"Well, they told me," Riley raised his eyebrow. I sighed. "Well, I met the Cullens when I was seventeen. We became close, and they saved my life on more than one occasion. Anyway, I figured out what they were and…I was okay with it. They left Forks a year later and I went off to college." I told him, leaving out everything to do with Edward. "How do you know about vampires?"
"The people you met yesterday weren't my real parents. They're my step-parents. A vampire killed my family when I was five. He came in and he went for my dad first. Then he got my mom. My older sister, Victoria, called 911. When that thing realized what she did, he took her. I've been trying to find the bastard ever since."
Victoria. "Um, do you remember what the guy that killed your family looked like?"
"Long blonde hair, pale skin, red eyes, crazy look in them." Riley said.
"A-and Victoria, did she have curly red hair?" he nodded. "The vampire, James, is dead. The Cullens killed him after he tried to kill me. And your sister, she-she's a vampire. Last time I checked she was trying to kill me."
That's great. My soon to be sister in law is trying to kill me because my ex-boyfriend killed the love of her life. I am officially screwed.
"So are you saying that Vicki is still alive?" Riley asked with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
"Riley, sweetie she's not who she used to be. She is completely different from the sister that you remember. When vampires are turned, their human memories start to fade. There's a good chance that if she saw you she wouldn't even remember."
Riley opened and closed his mouth a few times before laying his head on my chest and closed his eyes.
The next day was torture. The second I got back from my classes Alice bombarded me with questions about the wedding. She also gave me the date she had planned.
"June 16! Alice that gives you a less than a month to get everything ready."
"Think about it Bella," Alice sighed. "You and Riley will both be out of college and it's the perfect time for your honeymoon. Speaking of honeymoon, I have your choices. Trust me you will both love these. I will show you when Riley gets back."
I sat next to Jasper while Alice went over more wedding details. Food, my guest list, Riley's guest list, reception locations, bridesmaids, Riley's best man, groomsmen, etc. She only stopped when Riley came home.
"Help me. I am being tortured. It's your turn to make decisions." I muttered earning a glare from Alice. Riley came in and sat next to me. He was just as tense as yesterday. I rubbed his arm and kissed the sign of his neck.
Alice wasn't fazed by Riley.
"Okay, I could only find the best of the best in three destinations for your honeymoon. There's the Château de Saint Paterne in France, the Gravetye Manor in England, and the Hotel Hermitage in Italy." Jasper's head snapped up when she finished.
"Italy, Alice? Really?" Then they started talking to fast for us humans to hear.
Riley leaned over towards me. "Do they do this often?" I nodded.
They glared at each other for a while. "You are NOT going to tell him! He will freak out and he," Alice shouted and stopped when she remembered that she and Jasper weren't alone. Alice stormed off leaving me alone with Jasper and Riley.
"What was she talking about?" I asked Jasper to break the awkward silence.
"You should probably asked her." without another word I stood up and went to find Alice.
She was waiting outside the door. "Took you long enough," she muttered.
"Alice what were you and Jasper talking about?" I asked hesitantly.
"Well, Jasper wanted to tell Edward," Alice said. "Edward wouldn't want you to go because of the Volturi. Rulers of the vampire world. They don't know anything about you but Edward can be overly cautious."
"Anyway I saw how he would react. To the marriage mainly." I swallowed thickly waiting for her to continue. "He threw this huge temper tantrum, ripped jaspers arm off. Then he ran up here a-and," Alice stopped taking an unnecessary breath before continuing. "He tried to stop the wedding. You told him that you were going to marry Riley no matter what and he just snapped. He fed on a human."
"You were there and the way you looked at him. He didn't think you would ever forgive him. I saw him go to Italy. To ask Aro to kill him."
Edward was going to kill himself because I was getting married. What the hell? He's the one that left me. I would have never met Riley if he hadn't left. So why is he going to go crazy if I get married.
"So your saying that nobody can tell him that I am getting married or he will get himself killed?" I asked my voice cracking. I couldn't do it if it hurt Edward.
Alice's eyes went blank for a second. "I think that if you tell him yourself then he won't overreact. He won't like it, but he won't go insane."
"Alice what do you mean you think?" I asked.
"It all depends on what you tell him."
Great. If I say something wrong he goes crazy.
"When do I need to tell him?" I sighed.
So what do you think. Picture of all the wedding stuff on my website.
