Bella and me were enveloped by diamond glints from the white light they encapsulated, white crystalline snow and love from our family. In this snow globe like moment where everything sparkled, glittered and bounced… in this rainbow prism… that rivals even the too perfect-timing of the aurora borealis in the dark sky…

Nothing, nothing… not one single marvel would rival that of my seraphim wife, Bella.

Bella the beautiful

Bella the wonderful, clumsy, sweet, amazing vampire…

Bella, Bella, Bella.

My wife.


Chapter 10: Stellar

Edward's POV:

"How about a shot of the bride with the bridesmaid and maid-of-honor?" the main photographer suggested. Much as I hated letting go of Bella, I smiled and nodded then walked out of their way near Angel.

He smiled at me kindly, his violet eyes looked almost gentle – almost. "Guess we're really in-laws now, eh?"

I smiled back at him politely, "Yes. We are." He chuckled then ran a hand on his short dark hair.

"So when do you leave for Tokyo again?" He asked amusedly.

"In fifteen minutes," I replied.

"Ah." He nodded.

"Tell me Angel, what are your plans now?" I watched his reaction, he thought for a while then grinned.

"Well… I was thinking of visiting Apollo, have some overdue fun, maybe meet females…. You know, relax a bit."

I nodded at him, "I see. That's nice."

He shook his head and sighed, I looked at him blankly. Then he started chuckling lightly. "Don't worry, I'll still keep an eye out for danger. You guys may not trust me enough to tell me that Bella is attracting trouble but I have been looking out for her and I know her luck. I don't blame you. I am shady, popping out like I did."

Was this another part of his 'act'? For a minute there, I almost felt guilty. Again, almost

"I see. Well, I appreciate that."

He nodded half-heartedly. He was grinning at Bella's direction who was now posing with Jasper and Emmett. "Never ceases to amaze me… Izzy… no sorry, Bella… now she's all grown up!"

I followed his gaze and I couldn't help but smile as Bella was being carried by my tall burly brothers in a goofy shot. Then Angel looked at me, his violet eyes serious.

"Take care of her. She's part of your family now and I'm holding you responsible for her from now on." There was that glint in those startling gray-violet eyes again. Then for a second, they flashed gold. Not a good sign, according to Bella. Golden eyes for their kind mean something along the side of rage or mania.

I stiffened at that. I held my rigid pose even after his amused amethyst eyes replaced the cold topaz ones. He shook his head at me, "I apologize, I thought that I heard someone from the distance but I was wrong. 'Twas nothing but a godforsaken penguin."

I remained calm yet neutral, "Oh?"

He chuckled. I was about to question him some more when the photographer called him over. "Yo, you're the bride's brother as well as the best man, right? I want some shots of you and the bride."

Angel gave a quick glance at me and I nodded at him. He then appeared instantaneously beside Bella.

Jasper sauntered over to me. Everyone here is elated pleased, except say a few stressed out photographers and of course you. He thought. Then he looked at me seriously, we'll do the worrying today. You and Bella should take a break from that.

I nodded appreciatively at Jasper. Then Alice, Rosalie and Emmett walked over to use. Bella was still taking shots with Angel. They look so happy. I can't help but smile.

"Congratulations, bro!" Emmett punched me and it almost sent me flying back. "Oops."

"Ow. Thanks…"

Rosalie rolled her eyes at Emmett. "God, Emmett." Then she looked at me, grinned and gave me a hug which I returned. "Congratulations, Edward. We couldn't be happier for you both."

I smiled back at her, "Thanks, Rose." Then Alice leapt up to me and in shock I caught her and she was now clinging to me with me half-carrying her.

"Oh if only I could cry I would! Oh Edward this is so wonderful! I'm so happy for you and Bella! Thank you for letting me do your wedding! Thank you thank you thank you! So when's the next ceremony? Should I start planning?" She said all this in one breath. Right. Like we need to breathe but well, that's how fast that was. I laughed at her.

She glared at me and I put her down and she detached her hold on my neck grumpily. "Hmph. No one appreciates me."

I smiled at her apologetically, "Aw, I'm sorry Alice. It's just that well, you've gone supersonic again ha-ha."

She sniffed then broke into a smile, "Fine. But I will do your second wedding."

"Of course. You did a stupendous job here though, are you sure you can top this?"

She thought for a while, "Hmmm…. This is quite a challenge, but I'm sure I can come up with something…"

Jasper cringed, "Oh no. Now I'll never hear the end of it until the next wedding! Edward, please, please let it be soon…" he begged and all of us laughed except Alice who rolled her eyes at Jasper.

I decided to glance at Bella and saw that the shoot finally wrapped up and every staff, lensman and the orchestra members quickly disappeared. I saw Bella sharing a moment with Angel. I really can't say they're having a 'private moment' as our sensitive ears can hear anything that close.

I saw Angel and Bella share a big, long embrace. I felt a sad jerk in my silent heart, figuratively of course and noted that this was an embrace of separation and departure. Another good-bye. Angel or not Angel, this was worthy of an elegy.

As Angel rubbed Bella's back, he whispered to her, "Dear little sister, I am very much in bliss seeing you so happy and beautiful. You deserve all this and more. My work is partly done. I will keep a look out for you but right now I'm going to have to take a vacation…" he said slowly, a tinge of sadness on his voice.

Bella frowned for a fraction of a second but then smiled and whispered back, "Go on. You should also find someone for yourself as well. I'm sure you're almost on your way to quitting being a ladies man."

Angel snickered and there was that glint in his startling eyes again, "I'm not so sure about that." Then he kissed Bella's head, gave her another squeeze then pulled out of the embrace. "Well… I better get going now. Morning's make me uneasy." Bella smiled and nodded at him but her eyes said something else.

"Oh…take care then Angel." She said slowly. Angel chuckled lightly. "Of course. Don't worry about me, you just go enjoy your time."

I saw Bella blink but Angel just laughed. Then with a wave and a smile, he ran and disappeared into the white surroundings.

Enjoy your time? What did he mean by that?

I was about to go after him but I forgot all that as my beautiful wife walked up to me. I immediately took her hand and smiled at her.

"Why hello, Mrs. Cullen." I crooned at her ear, kissing her cheek. She giggled. "Wow. I'm officially a Cullen now!" she exclaimed.

"That's right." Carlisle said. Bella grinned at him and gave him a big hug. "I'm so happy to be part of your family, be a Cullen."

Carlisle patted her back, "So do we. We love you Bella."

"Yes, we really do Bella. You don't know how much we've all changed because of you." Esme said. Bella ran to her and gave her a hug too.

"Oh Esme! If only all of you could feel how grateful I am for everything you've done for me. I was afraid that I'd be living alone for the rest of my existence but all of you changed everything. I hope I don't disappoint you."

"That's very unlikely. We're so proud of you."

"Hate to break the party but your ride's here." Alice mused.

"Ride?" Bella tilted her head in confusion. That's right, she didn't know we were using the family's private jet. Just the two of us. I'll be piloting of course.

I smiled at her crookedly then offered my arm. "Yes. We're leaving right now. Follow me please." She cocked an eyebrow but took my arm and smiled. "Okay."

We said good-bye to everyone then without warning, I picked her up and ran all the way to the airport where Jasper 'parked' our jet this morning. She glared at me the whole way. "Jerk."

When we arrived at the airport I put her down and her glare was replaced with excitement. "Wow. We're flying to Tokyo right now? I didn't know that there was a flight from Alaska to Tokyo."

I chuckled. "Dearest we're taking the private Cullen jet."

She grinned at me. "You're flying it, aren't you?"

I buffed my nails, "But of course."

"Show off."

I laughed again, "Oh, come on. You'll be my co-pilot."

"Wait, we're going there… dressed like this?"

I nodded, "That's right. I'd rather risk embarrassment from arriving there in my wedding tux and to personally remove yours than flying there with us changed and all. Where's the fun in that?" I said seductively she gulped.

"Besides, we have a private place there fully equipped with our very own small private airport."

"You guys and your luxury items." Bella shook her head.

"Only the best for the best." We laughed.

So me and Bella set up everything and prepared for take-off. Our luggages were already shipped to Tokyo in advance, care of Alice.

Because of our very fast flying, we landed in Tokyo not very long. Bella started to move when I stopped her. "Traditionally, I should carry you all the way to our room. You don't want to break traditions, right?"

She sighed then held out her arms. "Fine. Carry away." She wanted to run too. But I wanted to do this all right. I grinned widely at her and carried her lightning fast to our room. We bought a mansion here which was very modern and Zen. It was snowing as expected but not all that matters.

All that matters is that me and Bella were finally having some alone time. Real alone time. As I ran and carried her, I leaned down on her and kissed her deeply and she put her arms around my neck and hair and kissed me with as much enthusiasm as I have.

I kicked the door to our room without breaking our kiss which was getting deeper by the minute. I slammed the door shut with another kick and I sprinted to our gigantic double king-sized red velvet bed and laid her down with me on top, kissing her ravenously and passionately, neither one unyielding.

Then Bella broke our kiss much to my dismay so I started trailing kisses on her ear, throat and neck.

She glanced around the room. "Wow. The room is so pretty!" I glanced around too, she was right. Due to all our kissing, I failed to notice that the room was filled with candles and rose petals scattered all around. This was Alice's doing. I smiled.

"Edward?"

"Yes, my love?"

"I'm… afraid…"

I touched her face and kissed her head, "Of what?"

She touched my hand and locked her gaze with mine, "I'm afraid that something might happen…"

I held her tight to my chest, "I would never let anything happen to you."

She clung to me tighter and I felt her close her eyes, "But I'm more afraid that something bad might happen to you… or Alice… or Emmett… or Carlisle… of everyone else…"

I cupped her chin and made her look up at me, "Bella… we're not that hard to take down. I know you're worried about a lot of things. I am too but tonight Bella… please let this night be just about us…"

She looked at me for a long time then sighed, smiled and nodded. "You're right. Everything I want is here. I just love you so much Edward. I've never wanted anything so bad in my life that I don't think I can bear being without you."

My whole being lit up at her words. She valued me greatly! I don't think I deserve such love. "My dear Bella, I love you immensely so as well and you are my life now. I cannot be without you too. Do not worry about anything. Let me take care of you."

She smiled at me lovingly and said softly, "Thank you. I'm s happy to be your wife."

"And I'm just ecstatic that you belong to me and I, you."

"You're right Edward. We should only think about us and only us right now."

I grinned at her, "Finally, now where were we then?" she laughed then I leaned down and began kissing her. Tonight we would be one.

Meet me in outerspace
We could spend the night, watch the earth come up
I've grown tired of that place, wont you come with me
We could start again
How do you do it, make me feel like I do

I need you to see this place, It might be the only way
That I can show you how, it feels to be inside of you
How do you it, make me feel like I do
How do you do it, its better than I ever knew
How do you do it, make me feel like I do
Do oh oh oh oh oh
You are stellar
You are stellar
How do you it, make me feel like I do
How do you do it, its better than I ever knew
How do you do it, make me feel like I do
How do you do it, make me feel like I do, Yeah
