A/N: I just couldn't leave them alone. No, these aren't the actual scenes. They're just ones that I've made up from the Breaking Dawn quotes. The chapters won't be long, and they'll be in my style, not Stephenie Meyer's, so it probably isn't very accurate. Have fun reading my crazy predictions!

Bella: "Why am I covered in feathers?"
-x-o-x-

I shifted in my sleep. The sunlight was turning my eyelids red, and brining me back into consciousness. I clung desperately to my dream. Edward and I were alone in the meadow. No wedding preparations, no crazy Alice, no relatives or worries. Just Edward and I.

I sighed. The real world was calling. I opened my eyes and immediately noticed that Edward was missing. I stretched my arms out and froze.

My arms were covered in feathers.

I sat there looking at my arms for a while before I sat up, surveying the rest of me. My whole body was like my arms – covered in white feathers. I looked over and sitting on the floor beside the bed was piles of white rectangles. I climbed out of bed and examined them to see that they were empty pillows. I looked around Edward's room, trying to figure out what happened, but I found nothing.

I padded into the bathroom to have a shower when I found two empty bottles of maple syrup – I thought I smelt it! – and a note.

Bella

When you wake up and find this please come downstairs.

Do not shower.

- Emmett & Jasper

I frowned in suspicion. What did they do?! I considered ignoring their request and showering, but I decided to be a good sport. I carefully maneuvered the stairs and entered into the kitchen, where I was greeted with a flash of light, whooping and laughter.

When the spots in my eyes disappeared I could see the kitchen and it's tenants properly.

Emmett was beaming at me with a camera in his hands – which explained the light, much to my dread. Jasper sat beside him on the counter, smiling widely. Alice was beside him, trying to stifle her laugher by covering her mouth – which didn't work because I could see her shake with her mirth. Esme and Carlisle were sitting on the stools at the counter island, giving me a bemused look. I didn't see Edward at first, but I found him eventually. Rosalie was sitting on him. He was pouting, and he looked up at me with a conflicted expression. On the one hand he looked furious, like he wanted to kill Emmett and Jasper for doing this, and on the other, he looked like he found my predicament really funny.

I finally decided to say something.

"Why am I covered in feathers?" I asked, and the entire room erupted into another fit of laughter. Even Edward joined them this time. I stood there, waiting patiently for them to stop and explain.

"We had to initiate you!" Emmett laughed, clutching his sides.

"What?" Alice took a deep breath to stop her laughter.

"Well, when you join the family, we get to prank you. We've all been through it." She explained.

"Even Carlisle?" I asked skeptically. Carlisle stopped laughing.

"It was…unexpected." He said. I knew he wouldn't say anything else.

"Edward?" I asked. He grew stony faced.

"We don't talk about it." He said, and the kitchen erupted into new peals of laughter.

"Don't be such a spoil sport Edward!" Rosalie laughed from her position on top of him. Edward sighed.

"They took away my car and made me drive around in…" He mumbled the last part.

"What?" I asked, and everyone laughed again. Edward sighed.

"They took away my car and made me drive around in a child's battery powered car." I felt my eyes go as wide as saucers.

"That's couldn't have gone very far."

"Doesn't matter. What mattered was the fact that he was driving around in a pink Barbie car. He went as far as the library when the thing died. It took him all day but it sure gave the town a laugh." Rosalie said.

"And we got pictures!" Esme added.

"Like today." Emmett said holding the camera up as proof. I felt tears well up.

"So, you're accepting me into your family?" I asked. I was extremely emotional, and everyone seemed confused except for Jasper.

"Of course. You're part of the family now." He said softly, and I was overwhelmed with emotions. I finally really belonged to the family.

Rosalie let Edward up and he took me into his arms, kissing the top of my head.

"We love you Bella." He whispered, and the tears spilled over.

"Thank you all so much." I said my voice thick. My family beamed at me. My family.

"Now can you please go shower. You stink of maple syrup."
