"I'M GETTING MARRIED TODAY!"

I heard her lithe footsteps get closer quickly, the bed dipped beside me, and then she started bouncing.

"Ungh" I grunted and rolled over in the bed, burying my head under my wonderfully squishy pillow.

"Not today Alice" I mumbled.

"I don't think so Bella, if I have to get up at this ungodly hour, then so do you" Rosalie stated sternly from the doorway, as Alice continued bouncing, letting out the occasional squeak.

I begrudgingly rolled out of the bed and peeled my eyes open. Alice was still bouncing on the bed like a deranged tigger. Rosalie giggled at her from the doorway, while I held my head and willed my growing headache to go away.

"Did you take your Ritalin this morning Alice?" I asked her.

"Bella! Don't be a buzz kill" she moaned, plopping onto the bed and sighing.

"Sorry Alice, I just have a really bad hangover from last night" I said apologetically, I didn't want to be a buzz kill on her wedding day.

"It's okay, I guess my decision to have a bachelorette party the night before my wedding was a pretty bad idea, considering you two can't handle your alcohol" she said teasingly, pointing at myself and Rosalie.

"I can hold my alcohol-"Rosalie started.

"Okay, okay!" Alice said, holding a hand up to her "The hairdresser and make-up artists should be here in a few minutes, now go take showers" she instructed, pointing to the bathroom

I saluted her and headed for the hotel bathroom. Alice wanted only the best for her wedding guests-making sure to book a five star hotel in Seattle to host the wedding reception. There was a quaint church only ten minutes down the road where the ceremony would take place.

I showered, and dried off quickly. When I stepped into the main living area of the presidential suite, there were at least a dozen people running around with hairdryers, and foundation brushes.

"Oh Bella! Come on, this is Irina and she's gonna fix you up" Alice said, pulling me over to a chair, beside hers and Rosalie's. I sat down obediently and waited patiently as Irina started with my hair. I felt like purring as she hefted, twisted and combed through my hair, scratching my scalp slightly.

"So Bella, what's the deal with you and Edward?" Rosalie asked from beside Alice, as she flipped through a magazine.

"What deal?" I asked, feigning nonchalance.

"Quit the bullshit Bella, we all know there is some major chemistry between the two of you. Hell the sexual tension coming from the two of you is sickening, you should just fuck eachother already" She said coolly.

"Rose…" I sighed in annoyance "It's not that simple" I huffed.

"Well it should be, you too are hornier than Tommy-lee and Pamela Anderson" Alice added.

"He has a girlfriend" I said. "And, we probably wouldn't work as a couple" I added.

"Who he doesn't care about! Bella, you too have been friends forever! There is no reason why you too wouldn't work as a couple, besides, you know what they say-best friends, make the best lovers" Alice said knowingly, as a make-up artist started to apply some blush.

"And you both seemed to enjoy that kiss playing spin the bottle" Rosalie added "I saw you grinding onto him" she smirked.

"Well I know I did" I sighed "honestly guys, I really like Edward, I mean, he's my best friend, we have tones in common-he annoys the shit out of me sometimes with his immature behavior, but that only adds to the things I love about him. I'm just afraid that if I try anything, he won't feel the same way and I'll risk our friendship" I said solemnly.

"You never know unless you try" Rosalie offered, with a small apologetic smile.

I smiled.

"I'll think about it"

Over the past couple of weeks since spin the bottle, I did a lot of thinking. I thought about Edward, and how he responded to the kiss-he seemed to like it, considering I could feel his boner, but for all I know-he could have gotten like that because I was grinding onto him and my breasts were pushed against him-a typical male reaction. It may have had nothing to do with the fact that it was me doing those things to him.

I also came to the realization that I really liked Edward- as in like like. I don't know if I'd be ready for a relationship or anything just yet-but I certainly wouldn't mind trying. Edward I just fit together, we worked well together. He's the yin to my yang, the Clyde to my Bonnie, the peanut butter to my jelly.

I came to this conclusion while I watching him swim lengths up and down his parents pool-ogling his abs, I was imagining what I would do to him, had I the opportunity to get him into bed with me, when I realized-why not? Why couldn't I get him into bed with me, or better-start a relationship? I've known him since I was a toddler, we have everything in common, and there is some very obvious sexual tension between us-so he obviously likes me physically. It would make perfect sense to start a relationship. But my qualms about risking our friendship made me shoot down the thought, and I went back to imagining.

When my hair was in a gorgeous up do and my make-up was finished-I put on my bridesmaid dress. It was a beautiful floor length, halter, lavender chiffon maxi dress. It fit my body perfectly-and Rose too, although Rose was the maid of honor, considering Jasper is her brother.

When I re-entered the main living area, I met Rosalie who was also in her dress, and we gushed over each other's make-up and how well our dresses were fitted. We abruptly stopped talking when Alice emerged from her bedroom in her wedding gown-Vera Wang, no less. She beamed as she walked over to us and twirled- her tiered chiffon skirt flowing with her.

"How do I look?" she asked excitedly.

"You look beautiful Alice" I told her honestly, sniffling- beautiful or not, she'd kill me if I smudged my make-up.

"Like a princess" Rosalie added, also holding back tears.

"Aw, thanks guys" Alice mumbled and then walked over to us and threw her arms around the both of us. We hugged her back-being careful not to pull on the chiffon bodice.

"I think I'm going to cry" she laughed, wiping under her eyes "It's just, you guys have always been there for me and now that I'm getting married-it's just insane!" she exclaimed, sniffling.

"We'll always be there for you Ally, we're best friends. And Jasper is one lucky bastard to marry someone as amazing and talented and smart and funny as you" Rosalie told her, smiling.

"Thanks Rose" she sighed and then turned to grab her bouquet "Let's do this!" she exclaimed and marched toward the door, a parade of make-up artists and hairdressers following her hurriedly to make sure she looks perfect.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Now Bella remember-"

"I know, I know. Don't fall, smile, and stand beside Rosalie" I interrupted her before she could tell me what to do-again.

"Good girl, now go! You're up!" Alice told me.

"I love you Ally" I told her before starting my walk down the aisle.

"I love you too!"

It wasn't so bad. I smiled like I was told and fortunately-didn't trip in these god awful heels that Alice insisted I wear. There was a large turnout for the wedding from both sides of the family, and so I blushed when I saw just how many people were watching me-maybe a couple of hundred or so. I tried to hold back a giggle when I saw Tanya sitting in the back row, scowling as Mike Newton-a sleaze from high school-kept trying to lean in and talk to her. I looked up at the altar and saw Edward standing beside a very nervous looking Jasper. When I caught his eye, he grinned at me and his eyes swept over my dress appreciatively. He was wearing a traditional black tux and bow tie. I smiled at him, and went to stand beside Rosalie, winking at Jasper encouragingly as I went by.

The wedding march began and the crowd stood as Alice made her entrance. She glided down the aisle like a model on a runway, clutching onto her father's arm. I looked over at Jasper, who was looking at her as though they were the only two people in the entire room. When she got to the altar, her father passed her off to Jasper-who took her hand and kissed it.

"You look beautiful darlin'" he told her, positively beaming.

Alice blushed and smiled at him in response-I've never seen her so anxious before.

The ceremony went wonderfully. They said their pre-prepared vows, and kissed passionately when they were announced husband and wife. Unfortunately, Emmett's patience has waned and he couldn't keep his big mouth shut.

"Go get a janitors closet!" He had said, loudly enough that all the front row could hear. I started giggling uncontrollably as Alice and Jasper broke apart and scowled at him. Edward chortled quietly beside him, but then punched him in the shoulder as his booming laughter filled the chapel.

They walked down the aisle as the priest announced Mr. and Mrs. Whitlock. Rosalie and Emmett followed behind them, and then Edward and I followed, arms linked.

"You look gorgeous" he whispered in my ear as we followed them out of the church.

"You don't look so bad yourself" I said, blushing from his previous comment.

Once we were outside, I congratulated Alice and Jasper. But they were quickly swept away by family members. The photographer gathered us together for some photos and then we headed to the wedding reception.

I sat at the top table between Edward and Alice. We had dinner and speeches were made, Alice threw the bouquet-which fell into Rosalie's surprised hands. The first dance was lovely-they chose 'love will keep us alive' by the eagles.

When other couples gathered on the dance floor I sat back in my chair and drank Champaign, watching as Edward and Tanya danced among the others. A couple of more songs passed when I decided to mingle. After a half hour of repeating how lovely Alice and Jasper were to everyone I came in contact with, I got bored. When I was walking to my seat someone grabbed my arm. I turned around to see Edward smiling at me.

"Bella? Will you please join me in this dance?" he asked, just when Aerosmiths 'Don't wanna miss a thing' came on.

"Sure" I told him, taking his hand. He pulled me onto the dance floor and wrapped his arms around my waist, I slid my arms around his neck and we started to sway to the music.

"Are you excited for tomorrow?" he asked.

"Oh my gosh Edward, I am so excited! We have to be up at five though, so we have time to check in at the airport, and then our flight leaves at eight" I said jubilantly. It was a pure coincidence that the concert would be the day after Alice and Jaspers wedding. We're staying at my apartment tonight-for convenience.

"That sounds alright, I'm surprised to hear that coming from you though-you hate being woken up early" he pointed out.

"I already told you-nothing is going to keep me from missing this concert, and that includes my healthy sleeping habits." I told him. "Hey, where's Tanya?" I asked, unable to see her anywhere.

"She went to get a drink" he told me.

The song ended and I told Edward I needed to go to the bathroom. He said he was going to help Emmett blow up condoms and stick them on the bumper of the wedding car.

Once I was in the bathroom, I pulled out my purse and began to touch up my make-up, as I was re-applying my lipstick, the bathroom door opened and Tanya came in and stood in front of me with a fierce glare. We stood there for a few minutes just watching eachother until I broke the silence.

"Is there something you wanted Tanya?" I asked in a bored tone.

"I just wanted to give you a little warning before you and Eddie take off tomorrow" she said coldly.

"A little warning?" I asked incredulously.

"Yes. Now firstly-I know what your little plan is, you're trying to steal my boyfriend and seduce him, well let me tell you something-it ain't gonna work" she spat "Eddie loves me, and you two may be best friends but we have something that you two will never have and that's chemistry. We are perfect for eachother. So if you try anything while you're in LA, I'll know about it. Because you'll be seeing me sooner than you think." She snarled.

"What the fuck are you talking about?" I yelled "I have no intention of seducing Edward"

"You know Bella, when Eddie first told me about you; I thought you seemed like a really nice person. Turns out you're nothing but a selfish whore!" she yelled.

And then I smacked her. Right across her cheek.

Her hand flew to her cheek and she rubbed it gently-a red handprint forming as she caressed it.

Yupp, that's gonna leave a bruise.

"Now that I have your attention Tanya," I started "I have no evil plan to take Edward away from you. I'm not that kind of person. However, I will let the cards fall where they may, if Edward implies that he likes me more than a friend-then happy days, because you're just a malicious bitch, whose clinging onto Edward for your social status-nothing to do with his person. But I love Edward and I will do whatever it takes to protect him from you" I spat.

"Now you are going to go out to him right now and tell him to have a good time-this concert was one of his life plans. The last thing I want, is for him to be worrying about you the whole trip" I snarled.

"Oh, silly, naïve Bella" she sighed dramatically "Did you really think I was going to let him go with you and not let him worry about little 'ol me? I have my own plans for Edward, you'll just have to wait and see"

Before I could ask her what she meant, she turned and stormed out of the bathroom, leaving me confused and outraged-still holding my lipstick. I quickly put it back into my bag and tried to follow her, but when I left the ladies room I ran straight into Rosalie.

"There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you! Come on, Alice and Jasper are leaving" she told me, grabbing my hand and pulling me toward the exit, where dozens of other people were already gathered.

I couldn't help but laugh when I spotted the wedding car. Edward and Emmett had been quite thorough. They wrote 'get in the janitor's closet' all over the car in red sharpie and covered the bumper and other areas in blown up condoms.

When Alice and Jasper saw the car, they both turned beet red and looked at their parents who were trying to stifle their laughter. Before they got in, they turned to thank people for coming-when I saw the opportunity I ran over to Alice and embraced her in a tight hug.

"I'm so proud of you Alice. You and Jasper are perfect for eachother," I told her.

"Aw Bella, thank you so much. And listen, have an amazing time at the concert, and don't forget, if anything were to happen between you and Edward-just go with it-it's fate!" she said happily.

"I will Ally, now go enjoy your honeymoon" I said to her, trying my best to hold back tears-my little Ally is all grown up.

"Thanks Bells" she said, then kissed my cheek and turned to the next guest.

I spotted Jasper and Edward talking several feet away, so I ran over and threw my arms around Jasper-effectively cutting off their conversation.

"You better take good care of her, do you hear me?" I told him playfully.

"Edward was just telling me the exact same thing" he said, smiling. "But you don't need to worry about that, I love her."

"I know you do Jasper, now it looks like Alice is ready to leave" I said, watching her get into the car "You better go"

"Yeah, thanks guys, for everything" he said walking toward the car. "Oh and Edward, remember what I said" he said pointedly at him. I wonder what that's about.

"I will"

"Bye guys!"

"Bye Jazz!"

The guests applauded when Alice and Jasper took off down the road-they were going to Hawaii for their honeymoon, a place Alice had always wanted to go to. When the car was out of sight, the crowd dispersed-some heading to the bar, other's going home. I turned to Edward.

"Do you want to leave now, or will we stay for a while?" I asked him.

"I think we should leave and get some sleep, we have to be up early" he said "I'll go tell my mom and dad we're leaving" he said and turned to go inside.

Esme and Carlisle wished us a good trip and gave us hugs as we left. I said goodbye to Rosalie-who demanded that I tell her everything when I get back. As we approached Edward's car, Tanya pulled him into a hug and kissed him passionately.

"I'll miss you Eddie" she mumbled.

"I'll miss you too babe, but it's only a couple of days, I'll be back before you know it" he said, and then kissed her cheek, before letting her go and following me to the car. I caught Tanya's eye as I was getting in and she mouthed:

"Remember what I said"

A/N Dun Dun DUN!

What has Tanya got planned?

So thank you to everyone that reviewed last chapter, ESPECIALLY those who continued to review, AFTER I reached the hundred mark :) I'm a bit of a review whore, so I'm aiming high this chapter, well high for me, considering some authors demand 200 reviews per chapter.
