I do not own Twilight

The Wedding

BPOV

I slowly turned my head to look at Alice. She gave me a glare.

"Hey Ali, I can't help it. I have got to see what you guys are doing" I said apologetically.

By the look on her face I could tell she wasn't satisfied. She went back to doing Rose's hair.

I looked at the mirror and I was shocked by what I saw.

Alice had outdone herself, transforming plain Jane to Snow White.

Rosalie was patiently sitting as Alice did her make-up. I wondered how today was going to be. Emmett had looked really happy and I was really happy for him.

I was going to stay at their house, till the end of the month. Emmett and Rose had forced me into it. Edward was going to stay as well.

I leaned back on my chair and closed my eyes. I didn't sleep but I wasn't all there either. I could hear Rosalie and Alice talking but I didn't understand their words.

I walked slowly and rhythmically- I think. I felt terrified. What if I fell? What if I broke a bone and had to be taken to the hospital? I was sweating. Thank god-or maybe here Alice- for waterproof make-up.

I concentrated on balance the entire way up the aisle. Finally I was there! I had made it! I felt like jumping for joy.

Emmett was grinning. Then a gasp went through the guests. Rosalie! She looked breathtaking. She walked confidently with her father.

Then came the vows and the ring exchange and the "you may kiss the bride". It was only when Kelly came up to me and offered me her handkerchief that I realized I was crying.

I slowly dabbed away the tears. Weddings always made me cry and I had no idea why.

I stood silent for a minute and then went forward to congratulate them.

The reception was at the backyard. The backyard here was larger than a ballroom so I guess the word backyard would be inappropriate.

I sat at one of the tables all alone, sipping some apple juice (I don't drink-usually). Em and Rose were dancing with everybody.

"Hey Bells, dance with me?" Jasper asked coming up behind me.

"Sure" I said before getting up and following him to the dance floor.

Jasper knew how uncoordinated I was and so he restricted his dance moves to a simple sway. I was happy to be dancing at all so no complaints here.

After a few songs I returned to my seat. Then came Edward. He was dressed in a tux that fit him really well.

I watched as he made his way towards me. My heart was racing. Was he going to ask me to dance? I sat on the edge of my chair pretending to be normal.

"Bella?" he asked.

"Yup?" I said sounding like an idiot. My face turned red.

He chuckled and then slipped into the chair opposite to me.

"You look lonely" he said seriously.

Blunt. Wow.

"I am not lonely. I was just enjoying the company of-"

"Of what? The table?" he asked cutting me off. I blushed again. Deeper.

"Well since I am here. Why don't we dance?" he asked me standing up.

"OK" I said quietly.

He caught hold of my hand and pulled me to the dance floor.

I tensed. I remembered the fact that I couldn't dance- now.

Edward noticed the tension in my body and raised his eyebrows.

"Um…Its' just that I can't dance." I said quickly.

He chuckled.

"It's all in the leading. Follow me and you'll dance well" he said before drawing my hands around his neck and putting his hands at my waist.

He began to move slowly side to side and then he began to go in circles.

Another few minutes and I realized dancing was fun-with Edward. He made it so easy.

I was enjoying myself and we were talking about anything and everything.

Then the music changed. From a fast beat to a slow song. Edward pulled me to him so that I was resting my head on his chest and he was resting his chin upon my head. Jasper winked at me from behind. I now knew why the song had changed so abruptly.

"I never knew dancing was such fun" I said relaxing myself.

"Now you do and that is all that matters" he said and I could here the smile in his voice.

I was standing next to Kelly as Em and Rose cut the cake. Kelly was smiling. Today afternoon she had been saying how nice it would be to have someone to shop with.

Edward was standing next to an old man who seemed to be leaning onto him for support. Edward wasn't complaining. He was actually holding the man's hand.

The wedding reception went very well. Thanks to Alice. Alice was flushed with happiness. Her entire face was sparkling.

The usual followed and we sent them off.

I was really happy for Em and Rose.

I slowly got out of the dress and entered the hot bath. Wow. That felt so good.

Edward was in his room. We had come here in a cab. I got out of the bath in an hour. I dressed in sweats and a T-shirt.

My head seemed to be spinning, I was so tired. It was almost twelve thirty. I lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

The sun was getting into my eyes. I rolled over and buried my head in the pillow. My head was throbbing. I felt like hammering it against the wall.

There was a soft knock on the door.

"Come in" I said, my voice was scratchy and my throat hurt.

The door opened and Edward was standing there, in his hand was a plate.

He saw me and looked shocked.

"What in the wide world have you done to yourself?" he asked keeping the plate on the bedside table and leaning over me.

I looked at him puzzled.

"You look terrible Bella. Your eyes are red and puffy. Your nose is red. You haven't slept well at all" he said coming closer to my face now.

Before I could say anything he pulled my lower eyelids down and peered at my eyes.

Oh right he was going to become a doctor.

I felt something tickle my nose and I sneezed. Edward was now standing thinking carefully.

"What has happened to me doctor?" I asked, my scratchy voice making me sound like a crow.

"You have the flu" he said with know expression as though he was discussing the weather.

I looked at him waiting for further explanation but he said nothing.

"Would you like to eat?" he asked suddenly.

I realized I was hungry. I nodded.

He pulled the plate towards me. When the bacon and eggs smell went into my nostrils I felt my stomach churning.

Oh my god!

I jumped out of the bed and ran to the bathroom. I was kneeling over the toilet vomiting.

Edward was holding my hair and was whispering soothing word into my ears.

Finally I felt better and I got up and brushed my teeth.

"I have the medicines you need." He said before running off to get them.

I sat down on the bed and closed my eyes.

"Here you go." He said handing me three tablets. I looked at them and then at him. The doubt plainly showing in my eyes.

"The white one is the antibiotic, the green one is for the nausea and the small one is the painkiller. For your throat." He said gesturing to the tablets one by one.

I swallowed them all.

"I wanna do something Edward" I said pushing around him and walking out the door.

"What do you want to do?" he asked me.

"Watch a movie?"

"Ok"

We were halfway through the 'Hateline'. I was watching earnestly while he was pretending to watch it.

He had snorted a lot when I had cried at a point. I had been angry and I still was.

I was feeling better. My head didn't hurt a much.

Edward had given me bowl full of soup. I had no idea he could cook.

The movie was over. I pulled the CD out of the player and put it back in its case.

I went to my room and lay down again. I was feeling really sleepy and I fell asleep the moment my head touched the pillow.

EPOV

I watched as Bella climbed up the stairs. She was unsteady on her feet. I heard a door close and telling me that she had a reached her room successfully.

I got up and went to the balcony. I pulled my phone out and started to dial the number I was so familiar with.

"Hello Edward!" Nicole answered her voice sounding very happy.

"Hey. How are you?" I asked feeling my spirits rise.

"Not so good" she said. I could here a ring of distress in her voice.

"What happened?"

"They didn't want our designs. Apparently they thought the designs were much too 'modernish'" she said bitterly.

"Its okay you know." I said trying to console her.

"I know Edward. I'll be fine" she said, her voice going from bitter to tired in seconds.

"Why don't I get some rest?" she said before I could say anything else.

"Bye Edward" and I heard the dial tone.

I felt hurt but I knew I was being silly. Everyone had bad days right? This was one of hers.

Speaking of bad days I went to check on Bella who was having a real

bad day today.

I opened the door trying to be as quiet as possible. She was sleeping.

I closed the curtains and pulled her covers over her. She was a real good friend. I closed the door and entered my own room.

I sat down and began to study.

JPOV (Jasper)

I was standing in front of Em's house now.

I opened the door with the spare key and jogged up the stairs.

I opened Bella's door and was about to say surprise when I saw that she wasn't there at all. I could here someone in the bathroom though.

I sat down on the bed and waited.

Bella came out and what I saw sent a shock through my body.

Bella looked terrible. Her eyes were red and puffed up. Her nose was red too. I opened and closed my mouth probably looking like fish.

She looked surprised.

"Jasper? How come you're here?" she asked and I registered her cracked voice.

"What's happed to you?" I asked concerned. She told me.

"Are you feeling any better?" I asked her.

"A lot. If Edward hadn't given me those medicines I would have been lost" she said sitting on the bed.

I sat down next to her and we started talking.

She was laughing at something I said and I laughed

and we were both laughing like idiots.

The door burst open and I saw Edward in the doorway.

He looked surprised to see me there.

"Edward. Nice to meet you again" I said getting up.

"Jasper." He said nodding his head towards me.

Bella was sitting on the bed looking tired.

"Bells maybe I should leave. I am tiring you out" I said reaching out and hugging her. She was warm. I kissed her forehead and then went out of the room.

BPOV

I lay back down and closed my eyes. Edward left silently. I felt really tired. My head was starting to hurt again. I sat up and walked to Edward's room.

He was at the table.

"Edward." I called standing at the door.

He turned around.

"Bella? Are you alright?" he asked getting up and coming over to me.

"My head is hurting again and I was wondering if…" I began.

He walked over to his bag and pulled out a box. I watched as he quickly sifted through the various medicines.

He found what he was looking for and gave it to me.

"Thanks." I said taking it. My head spun and I lost my balance. I started to fall.

But Edward caught me.

He lifted me up and took me to my room.

"You have to get some sleep." He said before slipping out of the room.

I swallowed the pill and lay down.

The bed felt comfortable. I closed my eyes and fell asleep almost immediately.
