The poll was almost unanimous (however you spell it. Haha.) You'll see which one, won when you read.

Disclaimer: Yes, I know. I don't own Twilight.

Danny & Leo are however all mine! (:

A 'Not-So' New Beginning.

Chapter Nine: Let's get excited.

Let's Get Excited
I'm so excited
I know exactly what I'm gonna do-oo
Let's Get Excited
I'm so excited
I'm a detective I'm all over you.

Let's get excited – Alesha Dixon. (I thought this was such an Alice song. It just fit's not only with her personality, but with the wedding planning! Well I thought it did….)

Bella POV:

I had promised Edward I was going to stop moping, and also stop blaming everything on myself. I just couldn't really get around the fact that it probably was all my fault.

Why did I have to be such a guilty person? Ugh.

I wondered whether Danny would stay away like he said. Would I object if he wanted to come and visit Leo? I don't suppose I would be able to.

I was already awake, I suppose there wasn't any point in going back to sleep now.

I heard someone running up the stairs? Running? Who runs up the stairs at 8am on a Saturday morning?

"Ugh!" I pulled the cover back over my head and yawned. Maybe I could go back to sleep.

"Bella!" Alice almost yelled after running into my room and jumping on my bed.

"Alice. What the hell are you doing?!"

"Time to get up sleepy head!" She tired to pull the cover back over my head, but I held onto it.

"Alice. It's 8am on a Saturday! I am not getting up now!"

"Yes. You. Are."

I peeked my head over the cover and Alice was sat at the foot of my bed glaring at me. When that girl got angry, she really got angry.

"Why though?"

"Because we are wedding planning!" Alice grinned at me. Oh, fantastic.

"Fine. Are we doing it here?"

"Yep. Edward's taking Leo for the day. And don't you even say anything! He can't be here!"

"Why?" I asked it anyway. Haha!

"Because I have your dress, silly!" She smiled at me again. "Now get up, Rose and I will be downstairs."

"Fine." Alice got up and skipped out of the room. I swear that girl was on something.

I climbed out of bed and grabbed some clean clothes before going into the bathroom. I quickly showered and got dressed in some jeans and a blue sweater. I quickly cleaned my teeth as well, and went downstairs.

I walked into the kitchen and Alice and Rose were sat at the table drinking coffee or something. Nobody else was around. I think Charlie was working, but I couldn't believe that Edward had gone already without saying Goodbye. Oh, I'm such a mush ball! Get a grip, Bella. You'll be seeing him in like 8 hours! That was still too long!

"Have they gone already?" My voice sounded sad.

"Oh, stop fussing! Honestly Bella." Alice glared at me again.

"Is she always this cranky when she doesn't get her way?" I asked Rose.

"Mostly." Alice smacked Rose on the arm. "Ouch!" I couldn't help but laugh.

"Bella. If you want me to plan a wedding in 6 months then you better get your ass over here!"

"Calm down!" I walked into the living room and sat down on the couch.

The floor was covered in magazines and catalogues. Bridal magazines and catalogues that is. There were also fabric swatches and what looked like plastic flowers. This was just to choose? Alice had gone way out of her way to do this.

"You really get obsessive when you get a project don't you?" I smiled at Alice.

"Sometimes. But this is an extra special project, so it deserved more attention." Alice smiled back at me.

"I'm helping as well! Why do you always forget about me?" Rose whined as she walked into the living room.

"We didn't forget about you. That's an impossible thing to do." Alice giggled.

"Good." Rose smiled.

"Bella?"

"Yeah?" I looked up at Alice who was sitting in the middle of the floor surrounded by what seemed more fabric swatches, more magazines and even bits of paper. Fancy paper.

"Who's being invited?" Alice was dividing the things into piles whilst she was talking to me. "Because we have all different types of stationery here that we can use…" She looked up at me and noticed that I still hadn't said anything. "Please don't' tell me you don't know who you're inviting…"

"No?" I said it like a question, again. The topic hadn't come up yet.

"Bella! You are just useless!"

"Alice. That's unfair! Bella has had a lot going on recently. It probably wasn't at the most important thing to think about." Rose smiled at me; she was sitting in the armchair flicking through a bridal magazine. Alice would probably moan if either of us tried to help. We were both keeping our distance.

"Thanks." I mouthed at her.

"That's not the point! This wedding is 6 months away, Rose. 6 months! You need to start telling people what date it's on, so they know if they can come!" Alice looked at me again. "Please tell me you have a date sorted."

"Not really…" Okay, now she looked mad. I don't think I had ever seen Alice look like this, she looked almost scary. I carried on so she didn't get any madder at me. "We just decided on August." I smiled reassuringly at her.

"That does not help me Bella. How does August 8th sound? It's a Saturday and that gives you enough time to go on Honeymoon and stuff before college."

"Sure. Okay."

"Good. Now come and sit here." She patted the empty space next to her on the floor. I moved off of the couch and sat next to her.

Alice hugged me, suddenly. I hugged her back.

"What was that for?"

"For letting me do this. I swear I won't let you down, Bella."

I laughed. "I know Ali, that's why I let you & Rose" I smiled at Rose over Alice's shoulder. "Both help me."

Alice let go and smiled at me. "Do you want to see the dress?" Alice stood up and skipped to behind the couch.

"Why are you…?"

"Sssh!" Alice and Rose both said together.

Alice came out from behind the couch holding up what was obviously a 'dress-bag' even though I had never seen one in my entire life.

"You actually got one?!" I almost screeched. "What if I don't like it?"

"O-M-G! How dare you!" Alice giggled. "Nah, I'm kidding. And trust me Bella. You are going to love it."

"Really?" I wasn't sure. I trusted Alice and everything, but I think I would have rather chosen my own wedding dress. Oh, that felt really weird to say.

"We know you. You will love it. Just like Ali said." Rose had come and sat on the floor next to me now. "Trust us, Bella."

"Okay."

"Ready?" Alice smiled and I nodded. She unzipped the bag and held up the hanger and inside was probably the most beautiful dress I think I had ever seen. My face must have broken out into a massive grin.

"Told you so!" Alice squealed.

"Sssh!" I continued to smile. The dress was white, obviously and was covered in lace or lacy patterns. It had short sleeves that were lacy as well and it had a small-ish train at the back. It was better than anything I would have ever found.

"Do you like it?" I shook my head. "Love it?" I nodded.

"See! We told you!" Rose was smiling hugely now as well.

"W-Where did you find it?" I stood up and walked over to Alice and looked more closely at it. I couldn't get my head around just so gorgeous it was and I would be wearing it in just over 6 months. The thought made my head spin.

"We didn't find it." I looked at Alice, who was still holding the dress, confusedly. "I made it."

"Y-You made it?" My voice shot up about three octaves.

"Well, not really. I drew the design and got somebody else to make it. So it's custom made. Unique, almost like you." She giggled at her little joke.

"Wow." I whispered. Wow, didn't even cover it.

Alice put the Dress back in the bag and laid it on top of the couch. I took that opportunity to throw my arms around her.

"Thank you Alice. It's perfect." She hugged me back.

"I know." She wriggled her way out of the hug. "Let's get to work. We haven't got forever." I laughed and turned around and followed her back to the pile of awaiting work. This was going to be a long day.

----

By lunch time we were still working. We had decided on Roses and Lilies as flowers with some of those brightly – coloured Daises that you get as well. We had also decided on some white paper to use for the invitations. I didn't even want to touch the paper for fear of damaging it. It just looked so fragile.

"Seriously, I'm hungry. Can we stop now?" Rose whined.

"You two just can't work hard. Fine." Alice just kept on going. Maybe she just ate lots of E numbers when she got up in the morning to keep her going all day. I had never meant anybody so upbeat all the time. Actually, that was probably a lie. Krissie was a lot like Alice in a lot of ways. It was almost scary. It would be fun when they finally meet.

"What do you want then?" I stood up and stretched. I had been sitting on the floor too long and it felt like all of my muscles had gone to sleep. "Ouch. Everything hurts."

Rose stood up as well. "Tell me about it." I giggled.

"I just did tell you about it."

"Haha." Rose started laughing with me.

"Shall I cook then?" Thinking about it, I really couldn't be bothered. "I actually can't be bothered."

"That's fine. Ali?" Alice looked up at Rose. "Pizza okay for you?" Alice just nodded and went back to flicking through a magazine. "That okay for you Bella?"

"Whatever. Cooking would mean I don't have to go back to work straight away but seeing as I can't bothered. That's fine." Rose laughed at me.

I sat back down next to Alice. "What are we doing now, then?"

"I'm writing down people that you can invite." Alice looked up and smiled briefly at me. She pushed the list towards me and I had a quick look at it.

"Do we even know that many people?"

"That's the reception as well. The ceremony if smaller. Don't worry." Alice laughed quietly.

"Oh okay. Ali?" She looked at me. "Are you okay?"

"I'm just tired I guess." Alice? Tired? Haha, I never thought I would see the day.

"We can stop. Do some more work tomorrow or something?"

"No. We don't have that much more to do." She smiled at me. Rose came back into the living room and sat down with us as well.

"Have you showed her yet, Ali?"

"Showed me what?"

"The bridesmaid dresses." Rose grinned at me. I shook my head.

"Did you buy those too?"

"No. We have a couple of pictures and we want you to choose. We haven't designed these. They have them in a shop in Seattle. Whichever one you like we will go and collect it." Rose kept smiling at me.

"Okay…" Rose dug under the pile of magazine and came out with a couple of pictures.

The first picture was of a knee-length, white, strapless dress. It had a black bow tied loosely around it and the skirt was quite 'floaty'.

The second picture was of a floor-length Royal Blue, halter-neck dress. The bodice was ruffled but hugged tightly to the model who was wearing it in the picture, but the skirt were out at an angle almost A-line. This one was my favourite.

"The blue one." I smiled. "I love the colour, but I like the look of the white one but the bridesmaids can't really wear white if I'm wearing it. Can they?" I laughed.

"You owe me 5 bucks now, Ali." (A/N: I knew watching lots of American TV would pay off one day!)

"Fine."

"What did you do?"

"We had a bet, I said you would choose the white one and Rose said you were choose the blue one. You chose the blue one, so now I owe Rose 5 dollars." Rose stuck her tongue out at Alice. I couldn't help but laugh.

"You two are too close. It's scary most of the time." I giggled. "You know we haven't even decided probably the most important thing?"

Alice and Rose looked at me like I had grown another head.

"Where are we having the wedding?"

"Oh!" Alice breathed out a sigh of relief and put her hand on her heart. "You almost gave me a heart attack, Bella! It's at our house."

"Your house?" I suppose it was big enough.

"Mm-Hmm. There's enough room and that way we don't have to hire a Church or whatever you have to do." Alice laughed.

"Exactly. It makes sense, Bella. Why is that not okay?" They both looked at me again.

"I never said it wasn't okay. That's a great idea." I smiled.

"Good." Alice and Rose said in unison, causing us all too just start giggling.

----

The rest of the day went quicker than the morning. We got almost everything sorted. We just had to finalise the 'guest list'. Well that's what Alice was calling it.

I say almost everything. Alice was also telling Rose and me that there was still a lot to do. And she was probably right. This was a wedding after all.

We were sitting on the couch together after clearing everything up.

Alice had found a place to stash everything. She was being very traditional about how Edward would not be able to see the dress until the day of. It was very annoying. Now I had to keep it hidden. That was going to be a fun task.

"You know what I always wanted to do?" We were all going through my 'Friend's' DVD's. I had all 10 series on DVD. (A/N: I actually do! I had to include it! 'Friend's' is a LEGEND Programme…Anyway.)

"What did you also want to do Bella?" Alice asked me.

"Get married at Disneyland." I had looked at it since I was about 12. I had always been a complete Disney Freak and it just seemed like an amazing idea.

"Well why the fuck didn't you say so?!" Alice screeched. I had never heard Alice swear.

"Ali!" Me and Rose both gasped together.

"Did you just swear?" Rose just sat there staring at Alice.

"Sorry. But Bella! If that's what you want then you should have said!"

"It was what I wanted. What we have been doing today sounds a lot better." It was true, almost. Sure it would be fantastic to get married at Disneyland but how much would it all cost. It didn't even bear thinking about.

"If you're sure. Because I can…"

"Ali! I said it's okay. Leave it. Please?"

"Fine."

I yawned. "I swear Alice, if you ever wake me up at 8am on a Saturday again. I will bite you."

It doesn't matter that I was already awake. Saturday is normally my lie-in day. Well 8.30am is good enough. It beats waking up at 6.30 am everyday really.

"Really?" I just nodded. "Bite me then." Alice then proceeded to start tickling me.

"No! Please…S-Stop! A-Alice!" I couldn't speak I was just laughing too much it was hard to breathe as well. I was just incredibly ticklish. "Alice!"

"Bite me." (A/N: Haha!) Luckily she stopped tickling me.

"Thank you." I tried to slow my breathing down.

"You two are just so funny!" Rose was laughing uncontrollably now. So that started Alice and me back off again.

"She shouldn't have tickled me. You know how ticklish I am!"

"That's why I did it!" Alice giggled again.

"Whatever."

We continued watching the rest of Series One until it was about 6pm. Alice and Rose go ready to go.

"Thanks for everything to do you two."

"Don't mention it. It's going to be perfect now though." They both hugged me before going.

I went and made myself some dinner, I couldn't be bothered to wait for Charlie. He could cook his own, well try anyway. Leo would have probably been fed already. I didn't even know where him and Edward were actually.

"Bella?" How did he always turn up, just as I was thinking about him?

"Hey." I walked out of the living room door and saw possibly the cutest thing in the world. Edward was actually carrying Leo.

"Is he asleep?" Edward nodded. That is just too cute for words. "Pass him here." He passed Leo over to me, who still didn't wake up. I walked up the stairs and into my room.

"Leo. Leo, baby."

"Momma?"

"Hey sleepy head. You need to change into your pyjamas and then you can go back to sleep."

"O…" He yawned. "Kay."

I put him down on my bed and quickly changed him before tucking him into his own bed.

"Love you, Momma."

"Love you too, Leo." I kissed his forehead.

I walked out of the room and downstairs. I walked into the living room and sat down next to Edward, who hugged me.

"Hi."

"Hey." I reached up and kissed him. "I missed you." I smiled.

"I missed you too." Edward hugged me tighter. I yawned then. "Tired?" He laughed quietly.

"Alice likes to work us hard." I laughed. "Don't even ask if you get to see anything. I am under strict instructions to not let you."

"I wasn't even going too…"

"Sure." I laughed again. "Do I even want to know why Leo is so tired?"

"I have no idea."

"O…Kay." I suppose it was a good thing. Maybe I would actually get to lie-in, in the morning.

Ha, yeah right.

A/N: Longest Chapter Yet! :D Aren't you pleased? Sorry there wasn't much Edward and Bella fluff. It was kinda of Girlie-Fluff instead. (I hope that doesn't sound really wrong!)

I had to end the chapter somewhere. It is NOT A Cliffy. So don't go thinking it is. I could have gone on for AGES just writing more Fluff. I didn't want too. :) There will be fluff next chapter though. :) Promise.
