Thank you so much to all of you that have reviewed and even just read the story. Sorry this update took so long. Ugh. It's been a long couple of weeks. So I promised to have a chapter soon and Here it is. Well, I made this one short on purpose. I wanted to get all the extra stuff out of the way before the actual wedding which should be posted sometime this week. It will be a very long chapter no worries. I was going to incorporate all this into one chapter, but I figured I made you guys wait long enough for an update. I promise to work on the next chapter religiously and I might post you guys another Deleted Scene or two... if your lucky. If you want this just let me know in your review.
Chapter 7: Wow, Wasn't Expecting That Reaction
I expected the call to Renee to be disastrous, painstaking, unbearable. I expected her to be infuriated, uncooperative, and even threatening. I didn't expect her to practically jump up and down with joy. I didn't expect her to congratulate Edward and I repeatedly and hop the next plane to Forks from Florida. Not even Edward could believe it and he was the mind-reader. The only person that didn't seem surprised was Alice. Wow, what a shocker there.
After getting off the phone with my mother I nearly shrieked,
"ALICE!!!"
"Yes, Bella dear." Alice said appearing out of thin air.
"Why, pray tell, did you neglect to inform me that my mother would love the idea of me getting married? Why did you let me believe that I would have to force her to listen to me and force her to see how much Edward and I love each other?"
"Well I didn't want to spoil the surprise. You see, your mother will give you the details, but she is leaving Phil. She is going back to Charlie. Charlie is not actually at a police seminar. He is with your mother in Florida. Phil and her actually divorced two months ago. She couldn't bring herself to tell you. She thought that maybe it would ruin what you had with Edward.
But for the past two months, when your father said he was going on all those fishing trips and police seminars, he was actually going to see your mother. They are planning to remarry. Your mother doesn't want you to make the same mistake with Edward. She wants you two to latch onto each other and never let go. She knows what true love is and she knows that you and Edward have it."
Alice had just given me the longest explanation that I have ever heard in my entire life. She had given that entire speech in one breath and she wasn't even flushed, of course it was impossible for her to be flushed, being a vampire and all.
"Wow Alice. That's a lot to take in." I giggled.
I ran into Edward's arms.
"They both know! Yes, we can be together and my parents are finally coming to their senses and getting back together. Oh my god, I don't think I have ever been this happy."
Edward glared at me.
"Well, except every minute I'm with you, of course." Edward smiled and kissed my forehead.
"Don't worry Bella, I understand." Edward said as he began to spin around with me in his arms.
Later that Day
Edward and I, along with the rest of the Cullens met my parents at the airport. My mother ran when she saw me and practically knocked me over. She screamed in joy and hugged both me and Edward.
"Oh I am so happy for you Bella. I can't believe that my baby is getting married. Oh my god!"
"I am so glad that you feel that way mom. Now what is Dad doing with you?" I asked with mock-surprise, but they thought I really had no clue.
Edward stood smiling with his hand around my waist, before shaking Charlie's hand.
"Nice to see you, sir."
"Edward, glad to hear the news."
"Thank you, sir."
"Enough with this sir stuff. You can call me Charlie."
"Alright Charlie."
I butted in at that moment, "How come he can call you Charlie, but I can't?"
"Because that's the way it works Bella." Charlie replied, lightly ruffling my hair.
All three of them laughed together.
"Mom and Dad, these are Edward's parents Carlisle and Esme. His brothers Emmet and Jasper. And his sisters Alice and Rosalie. Of course Dad knows most of them already."
"And mom this is the first time you've met Edward. I know you'll love him as much as I do."
"Of course I will Bella. If he makes you happy, I will love him as I would my own son."
Carlisle, Esme, Charlie and Renee all shook hands politely and chatted about the upcoming wedding. They were all so excited. It was at this moment that I remembered that Mom still hadn't told me about why Dad was with her.
"Mom, so why is Dad with you?"
That is when she told the whole story about her leaving Phil, because she realized she still loved Charlie. And then they started to see each other when he would come down for the weekends. Ultimately they decided that they wanted to remarry and that they would move to Seattle as a compromise. Mom still hated Forks, so she compromised on Seattle so that they could be together.
We drove Mom and Dad back to the house in Forks and I went back to the Cullen's to sleep. We all agreed it would be best so Mom and Dad could have some alone time. They needed to rest after the long plane trip. It was then that I told Renee that the wedding would be the two days from then.
"Wow, so soon! The sooner the better I say. I can't wait until you two can spend the rest of your lives together."
Honestly, I ecstatic at having the wedding so soon. I loved calling myself Mrs. Bella Cullen or Mrs. Edward Anthony Masen Cullen in my head. I smiled and Edward and I drove back to the Cullen house. He held my hand in his the whole way, stealing silent loving glances at me as we drove ever-so-quickly back to the Cullen house, which I should get used to calling my home soon. Wow I can't believe it. I took Edwards hand that was latched to my own and brought it to my lips. He sighed and looked over at me with love and devotion before stopping the car and sweeping me into his arms, proceeding to carry me into the house. This was going to be a fun night. All the difficult stuff was behind us and we could finally concentrate on each other and the love we had for each other. Wow, I am going to love eternity with this man.
