I do not own anything Twilight...

Before I knew it the remaining two weeks flew by in a hurry. Bree and I had met the next day and caught up on everything in our lives. We started hanging out a lot more after that and Rose and Alice had warmed up to her again. Edward and I were spending all of our time together knowing that our time was winding down. I was still hesitant about leaving for two semesters but I had told Alex that I would take the offer. Together Edward and I spent time with our friends and made the best of the two weeks I had left with them for a while. Alice and Jasper were doing well and going to Texas after the wedding and Rose and Emmett were ecstatic about their honeymoon and starting their lives together as husband and wife. Everything was going well in my life and standing here in line waiting to walk down the aisle for my best friends wedding I was in a cheery mood.

As I walked down the aisle towards the alter I looked straight at Edward and he smiled. He looked gorgeous in his black tux. If I thought Edward was handsome in his regular clothes seeing him in a tux made him look like a God. That beautiful pale skin and sparkling green eyes made my heart melt every time. His hair was in its usual disarray and his beautiful smile was heart stopping. He looked perfect. He winked at me quickly and I winked back. I couldn't wait to finally be able to kiss his luscious lips and to be in his arms. Tonight was going to be an unbelievable night. We had been through so much lately and I was just ready to be able to forget about all that tonight.

I looked around at everyone in the church watching as I walked down the isle and I couldn't help feel the center of attention. That wasn't what I wanted so I picked up my pace a little. As I got to the front of the isle I took my position and looked straight ahead waiting to see the beautiful bride walk down the isle.

As the wedding march started I looked at my beautiful best friend in her gorgeous white dress. Rose was a picture out of a magazine. She had her beautiful blonde hair in an up-do with curls falling down and a small tiara in front. She wore an Oscar De La Renta white silk Duchesse satin dress with ruched side details. She was a sight to see. Everyone turned to look at her but I already knew how beautiful she looked so I looked over at Emmett. He looked dashing in his black tux but the most heart warming feature of his was the wide smile and glittering eyes he had looking a Rose. I knew that he would make her a very happy wife and vice versa. All the love emanating from him made me look over at Edward and caught him looking at me instead of the bride. "I love you" I mouthed and he mouthed "As I" and turned to look at Em.

The ceremony was beautiful when it was time for their vows Rose and Em had decided on their own. Emmett went first and turned to her with her hands in his. "Rosie I know that you've badgered me to write my vows and was upset because I didn't write them. I know how upset you were with me but the truth is I never had to write them down. I've always known that I would say what my heart felt and no words on a paper could ever do that. Since the first time I met you I knew that I had to have you. When you smiled at me I knew that I wanted to wake up to that smile for the rest of my life. When you told me that you loved me I felt like the luckiest man on earth because I had the honor of filling your heart. Little did I know that today I would feel like the luckiest man on the earth. I get to stand here and promise to love and care for you for the rest of our lives, I get to stand here and finally be able to unite with you for the rest of my existence from this day forward. Rosalie Lillian Hale will you do me the honor of being my wife?" he said grabbed the ring from Jasper.

"I do" Rose cried and Emmett smiled as he placed the ring on her finger.

Rose needed a minute to get herself together and then looked over at Emmett.

"I spent so much time making everything perfect for these vows but I've just realized that everything I wrote can never express to you how happy I am and have been since you walked into my life. You have been with me through thick and thin and I thank God everyday that you were the one I was destined to be with. I've loved you ever since you smiled at me and I will love you until after our lives are over. Emmett Dale McCarty will you make me the happiest women on this earth and accept to be my husband?" Rose said with tears in her eyes. I handed over Emmett's ring to her and she waited for his answer.

"Forever and ever baby!" he boomed which made everyone chuckle. Before the minister could pronounce them husband and wife Emmett picked Rose up in his arms and she smashed her lips to his. Everyone laughed and started to clap.

Later on at the reception after the husband and wife had their first official dance I joined Edward on the dance floor.

"Edward I can't dance." I groaned as he stood in the middle of the dance floor.

"Don't worry I'm an excellent dancer so I'll lead." he smirked and placed his hands on my waist.

"Your toes you should worry about, not mine." I grinned and placed my hands around his neck.

Being in his arms was my favorite place in the world. It was my safe haven and being in them now I shut out the whole world and placed my head on his shoulders. "They are so happy." I whispered.

"Yes they are. They're emanating so much love its so heart warming." Edward spoke softly.

"They're wonderful and God couldn't put two better people together."

"He could and he did." he smirked.

"Well aside from us, Alice and Jasper." I smiled at him.

"Okay just clearing it up." he smiled.

As I looked at him I couldn't help and notice how lately his smiles hadn't reached his eyes. It didn't seem fake but it didn't seem wholehearted either. I had thought that I was imagining things but when Alice and Rose had commented on it I knew that I wasn't hallucinating. Something was bothering him and I didn't understand what.

"Is Bree coming tonight?" he asked suddenly.

"She said she would." I shrugged and looked at him as he looked towards the door.

My mind was really confused about something and I couldn't pinpoint it. Something was fighting to come out but I didn't know what it could be. I shook my head trying to clear my head and working on focusing on the now.

When we were sitting at our table Bree had shown up looking beautiful in a long strapless blue gown. Her hair was in beautiful curls and looked exquisite. She was definitely going to meet someone tonight. Allison had begged Alice to dance so Jasper walked over and asked me to dance. I accepted and suggested that Edward dance with Bree since she was alone. They seemed uncomfortable with the idea but instantly agreed.

"How have you been lately Bella?" Jasper asked when we hit the dance floor.

"I've been great just working my behind off at the bookstore and hitting the books. I've been contemplating the study abroad program that Professor Biers had suggested. I would love the opportunity but six months is a long time." I sighed.

"It's a great opportunity Bella, I know you're worried about your relationship with Edward but he wants you to take the course and he will still be here."

"And how about if he's not?" I asked not being able to hide my feelings anymore.

"What do you mean? Have you been having problems?" he asked worried.

"No, he's just been very distant and something has changed between us."

"I'm sure it's just school and work."

"I thought so too but we've been on vacation from school and he's still the same." I sighed.

"Maybe if you give him time he'll come around to telling you." Jasper suggested.

"Maybe..." I sighed and then something in me made me look over Jaspers shoulder at Edward and Bree. They were dancing but when I looked into their faces realization hit me like a ton of bricks. The way she looked straight into his eyes reminded me of the way I looked at him when it was just us in our bubble. And the way his eyes glittered for the first time in months was the way they did when he looked at me. I felt my head spinning and forced myself to look at Jasper suddenly.

"Bella what's wrong?" he asked panicked. "You look very pale."

"Jasper I need some air, I'll be right back." I said turning away to walk to the nearest restroom. But when I was stepping off the dance floor I heard the clicking of a glass.

"May I have everyone's attention? It's time for the maid of honor and Best mans speech." the wedding planner called out. I sighed and quickly composed myself. This was Rose and Emmett's day and I was not going to ruin it for them. I made my way to their table.

Jasper went first with his speech embarrassing Emmett and made everyone laugh. All the while I placed a fake smile on my face and when it was my turn, I looked over at Edward and swallowed the lump in my throat.

"My mother always told me that God makes people that are destined to be together and those that are just destined to make an appearance in your life. When I look at Rose and Emmett I know exactly what my mother meant. I remember Rose always saying "Bella I'm going to make a great wife one day." and I would tell her "Rose the man that can put up with your bossiness has my blessing." When Emmett arrived my first words to him were "you have my blessing." Now here we stand many years later and I have the honor of being apart of their wedding. Rose and Emmett a love like yours is eternal, it overcomes all barriers and jumps all hurdles. I wish you two the best as you continue in this journey as husband and wife." I said as a tear slid down my eyes. "There are only two couples that I've noticed this kind of love in and I'm glad to be here joining in one of the unions. Alice, Jasper we'll be doing this soon." I smiled and raised my glass. "To the Bride and Groom" I called and took one sip and then turned to Rose.

"I'm not feeling well. I wish you the best in your honeymoon and I love you two." I said placing a kiss on her head.

"Are you okay sweetie?" she asked alarmed.

"I'm great just a little nausea's. I'm going to go okay. Sorry and I love you."

"Okay sweetie .Thank you for everything, I love you Bella." she smiled.

"You better." I smiled. "Bye"

I walked off the stage trying to hold in my tears and walked over to our table. I grabbed my bag and bid goodbye to Alice, Jasper and Allison. Edward started to get up but I told him I wanted to be alone.

"Is everything okay, love?" he asked and as I heard his word of endearment my heart burst.

"Yeah fine, but I need to go home, I'm not feeling well. You stay here okay."

"No I'm coming with you."

"No I don't want you to Edward. I need to go." I muttered and tried to hold in my tears. Unfortunately one traitor tear fell.

"Bella what's going on?" Alice asked now alarmed.

"I have to go." I said and ran out of the reception.

I grabbed the cab out front and gave the cabbie my address. As the car started I buried my head in my hands and cried. How could I have been so blind? How could I not see it? I kept asking myself on the way to my apartment. When I finally arrived I paid the cabbie and ran up to my apartment. I locked my door and walked into my room. I closed the door and fell to my knees crying. This couldn't be happening...I told myself over and over again.

I was so blind...
