A/N I still don't own Twilight

Thanks to Lel and Sherry.


- Bella -

Your eyes, I can see it in your eyes. You were so worried, so worried I almost took your hand and told you. Did you really think I'd get married in a frock? After all these years, even before you knew, I thought you knew me.But now, I can only smile. Look at you.

You're perfect.

Your face, it glows. A proud man, a husband-to-be. It fills me with joy, to see you so proud. Proud to be my man, proud to have me as your wife. I walk next to my dad, he's holding me too tight. I don't think he notices. I hardly do. I'm nervous, though.

I only see you.

How long is this aisle? A mile, at least. I want to be with you, but we have to walk slowly, as is tradition. Don't they understand I'd rather run? But I walk slowly, my heart beating fast. Walking to you, only to you. Your eyes, look at your eyes.

Glowing.

Ah, here we are, we've reached you. The music stops, and I stop near you. My dad gives me to you. Does he think I can't see him cry? You take my hand, and everything falls into place. The world falls away, and there's only you left. You take a deep breath, and so do I. Here we are.

We're finally here.

I can hardly hear the words. I look into your eyes, my gaze only shifting to your mouth when it's time for you to say "I do." Well, I do, too, and I tell you with a smile. A second ring around my finger, so beautiful, I imagine I can feel the weight of it. And then, you may kiss the bride.

All my life I've dreamed of this.

A reception follows, and a dinner. Speeches and toasts, it's a beautiful day. Perfect even, if you ask me. I only see you, your eyes, your tux, your lips, your hair. So happy, you haven't stopped smiling once I think. Wherever I am, your eyes find me. And when I'm close, your skin touches mine.

You're mine.

After dinner, the music begins. The first dance for us. The train of my dress tied up, your hand warm through the silk on my waist. "You are so beautiful," you mouth at me, and I can only smile. The first notes of our song, and we step and we sway. We're dancing together.

Just us.

Others join and we party hard. You get my garter belt with your teeth, your hair tickling forbidden skin. When I meet your gaze I know you are counting down the minutes too. Midnight strikes and we bid goodbye, catcalls and hugs, comments and advice. You laugh, bashfully, and guide me into the taxi towards out hotel. Tomorrow we'll leave for our honeymoon.

Tonight, we have our wedding night.

The suite is gorgeous, but I only see you. Rose petals on the bed, on the floor, in the bathtub. You grasp both my hands and walk me to the bed, where you cup my face and kiss me. "I love you." Your breath so sweet on my face and I smile, overwhelmed.

"You are my life now."

Turning me, you unbutton my dress, kissing every inch of skin as it is revealed. I shiver with pleasure. Everything feels new tonight, like a first time. The silk of my dress falls away from my shoulders and a corset is revealed. You groan reverently, unhooking the bodice with nimble fingers.

I sigh in your embrace.

Clothes falls away, we will find them tomorrow. A bubble bath first, washing the day away. I scoot onto your lap, feeling all of you in the scented water. My hands in your hair, your hands on my hips. The water ripples in time with our movements. Against each other, we come undone.

But not completely. Not just yet.

Getting out of the tub, you pat me dry with heated towels. I'm burning up with need for you. You carry me to the bed, still naked, and I can cry when I feel your hot silken skin against mine. So happy, so perfect, so completely mine. You cover me with all of you and press your lips to mine.

"I love you."

It's slow and it's perfect, and when the pace picks up, so it seems does my love for you. Everything, tonight, here, now, with you, only you. I love you, I love you. And you love me, too. It's still hard to believe, sometimes. Look how far we've come.

Remember that last party on the beach?

It's so perfect, so perfect. I never want to let you go. You fall asleep on top of me, inside me still. I hold you tight, reveling in your weight on me. Yes, we're here, we made it. It hasn't always been easy, but underneath, I always knew.

We were meant to be together.

An easy morning, breakfast and more making love. Then packing and leaving, catching a flight to some sunny place. We shall spend a week away from people, school, and obligations. Just you and me. I want it all.

Today, the rest of our life begins.

I can't wait.


Sorry to have kept you waiting. I had to figure out where I want this story to go.
