So...one of my friends is demanding that I update, and so...here I go!! I'm kinda lost right now, idk what to put anymore. All I know is that this chapter is...THE WEDDING!!
So...here you go!
Oh yeah. And Breaking Dawn...tell me your opinions!! Thanks.
I took a deep, deep, DEEP breath. It was time. Time to get up. Get up, walk into Alice's room, where she would do everything.
"Alice," I said, as if she were right next to me. "I'm ready." I heard her squeal from downstairs.
I really didn't feel like fighting, or paying much attention. Today, I was to become Mrs. Bella Cullen, Edward Cullen's wife. All I remember is Alice bossing me around — although she called it "instructing" me.
And then I remember Edward whispering "Good Luck" to me from downstairs. He wasn't allowed to see me, of course. And so I whispered back, "It's your wedding too, Edward."
I remember Alice shoving me down the stairs, my feet clanking on the stairs.
I walked outside, into the backyard, with my old father. Everyone looked at me, beaming. It was beautiful.
By "it", of course I meant Edward. He was always beautiful. In a tux, ecspecially.
I looked around at the decorations quickly. All of the guests were sitting on either side of the aisle; there was a canopy of beautiful blooming white and pink flowers over our heads, but with small holes to let the sunlight filter in at places, just enough to sparkle on my dress, not me. The petals would float off of the flowers sometimes, with an occasional breeze, and flutter around to make a nice effect; Edward was waiting in front of me, with the minister.
The bridesmaids dresses were fairy themed - obviosuly Alice's idea. Alice, Rosalie, and Mel stood there smiling straight at Charlie and me.
Jacob stood as my best man, his tall head hitting the flowers; I noticed Alice shooting annoyed glances at his head, which was making a few flowers fall down.
It seemed to be taking forever, just to get down this tiny aisle. I felt a small pressure as Charlie squeezed my hand in comfort. I looked at my hand, and dwelled slightly on the fact that if I had done that, his hand would be crushed.
I could still feel his blood, I still yearned for it — and every other human's blood here.
I think my face was mostly smooth at this point, except for the bright smile on my hard, pale face. But inside...my emotions were soaring. I was excited; I was anxious; I was...worried. About the humans. And I was thoroughly feeling love toward everyone here to support me.
Oh, I bet I was giving Jasper a nice show. I chanced a flash at his face; he did look annoyed...at me. But he looked all excited, or something. Because my emotions were rubbing off on him.
"Sorry, Jasper," I breathed lowly, and his lips twitched in amusement.
"Hey," he said, just as quitely, "I wouldn't change your emotions. Not now. This is how it's supposed to be." He put emphasis on that last part...I think he knew I was doubting myself right then. To anyone who wasn't a vampire, that was nothing. That was just another second passing by, while I walked...and I noticed that we were one step away, and...my foot went down, and we were there.
So many blurs today...Edward held my hand. He seemed to whisper, "I do" from far away. I remember the silence...everyone waiting for something...I looked around, and if I had been human, I would have blushed. "I do," I said quickly.
Edward didn't wait for anything more; he swept me up and kissed me. It was full of love and longing.
Everyone cheered, people got up, everyone was congradulating us, and everything like that. It was still kind of blank here.
Suddenly, I sucked in an unneeded breath, and my head looked up. "I'M MARRIED!!" I exclaimed, like it was any surprise to anyone here. Edward chuckled quietly while holding me by my waist with one hand, and mussed my hair a bit with the other. Then he frowned and tried to smooth it, but it was up too intricately to get it back. It was, as I had been told by Alice and Rosalie, up in a kind of bun that it sounded like it would take hours to do, although all the preperations only took about 3 hours — which was good, for Alice. I hadn't had a chance to look in the mirror.
I looked at Edward's face. It was too hilarious: like a three-year-old who had screwed something up. Oops. Alice growled quietly and subtly. Ha.
I looked straight at her; she stared back; I smiled and removed a few things, then a final piece in my hair, and shook it loose. She gaped at me.
After a while, everyone left, back to their normal lives.
"Bye, Jake!!" I said, as he was leaving. He was the last one to go, besides my whole family (who were mostly inside now anyway).
"Bye Bella." His good-bye was short and a little bitter. I knew he was still miffed about all this...vampires, weddings, ...not him. As he began walking away, I grabbed his arm and quickly gave him a peck on the lips. He smiled his old, Jacob-y smile and then looked around him.
"Don't make it worse, hon." And just like that, he left, trembling.
"You look beautiful," Edward insisted.
"Wait. I need to hunt."
Edward looked surprised...and I felt surprised. Had I said that? Okay...whatever.
I ran into the woods, away from everything. And I wasn't really controlling myself. I just let my instinct take over.
I closed my eyes and ran, ran, ran. I smelled some delectible scent and lunged forward. I snapped its neck and began drinking automatically. I opened my eyes; I was in the meadow again. Hm. I licked my lips, and looked down at my delicious prey; I would have to remember what it was, becuase it was so good.
I stopped. Everything. And I dropped the dead, drained body of a middle-aged man, in hunting gear and all. I would instead have to forget this taste.
I wanted to cry so bad. I was a horrible person! So this was what it felt like to kill innocent people...to have them as a snack.
I ran back home faster than I could have thought possible; have my legs fallen off yet? But my dress and everything were still perfect. Perfect-looking. If I were to go back in time, to the wedding, I would still pass as myself. Like before, on the outside I was totally different. If I could go back in time and change it so I hadn't done that...
I swept past Edward, still standing under the flowers.
I swept past everything, right into my room.
I collapsed onto the bed. I stayed there. It seemed eternity, but it was only one minute: I counted to sixty before I stood up. I heard the rustling of my clothes; I remembered the wedding. There was a mirror attached to my door. I walked over to my dresser, near the door, and took out some normal clothes to change into, intending to not even look in the mirror.
I threw the clothes on my bed and finally turned around and looked into my full-length mirror.
I peered up at someone in the glass through my eyelashes. Someone with a beautiful white dress on, with beautiful embroidery on it. Someone who was a vampire. Someone who was wearing an old bracelet from her friends, a brand-new pair of heart-shaped, shiny earrings, shoes that she had borrowed from her little vampire sister, Alice, and finally, a necklace: light blue crystal flowers covered the gold necklace. Someone who's hair was wild, down. Someone who's hands had little spots of blood on them. And, as I peered up at her face, I saw a woman with shockingly bloodred eyes staring right back at me.
I personally liked this. I think that Bella should have some kind of flaw, ya know?? k, review please. )
Tell me whatcha think!! Oh, yeah. the bridesmaid and wedding dresses are on my profile (chosen by voters)
