Happiness Ruined

DISCLAIMER: Stephanie Meyer owns all!

BPOV:

After mine and Edward's "activity" in the bedroom we started to get ready for the dinner at Chez Shea. I sighed as I looked at the clock.

"Do we really have to go?" I pouted and Edward sighed. He didn't want to leave as well. I could stay wrapped in his embrace forever. I felt so safe and loved in his arms.

"Love, you do realize that you invited the right?" He chuckled at me. UGH! Why did I have to tell them to go? I thought angrily to myself.

"I guess you're right then." I started to get up, but Edward pulled me into a kiss. I broke the kiss and pecked his cheek.

I got up and took a warm, steamy shower. I put on my robe and went into my walk-in closet. I looked around, but didn't see anything I liked. There were t-shirts, sweaters, sweats, cardigans, tank tops, and then I finally found the dresses. The closet was HUGE! I actually got lost the first time I came in here.

I looked at the dresses then finally, on caught my eyes. It was a David Meister one shoulder midnight blue cocktail dress. It had a satin bow at the shoulder topping a slender silhouette. It looked gorgeous. I was about to try it on, but then my eyes saw the perfect shoes to match. They were Jimmy Choo Peep-Toe sandals with a shimmery snakeskin platform with crisscross straps.

I tried my out fit on and looked in the mirror. It looked beautiful on me! The dress hugged my curves in all the right places and made me look very slender and tall.

I went into the living room to the vanity. I did my makeup: light smokey eyes with little mascara and light pink lip gloss.

I turned around and saw my fiancé standing in front of me. He looked like a Greek God. I've never seen a more handsome human being and I'm not being biased either. He wore a simple black Burberry tuxedo and his hair was still the way I loved it: untamable.

I saw his eyes darting up and down my body. I chuckled at him and used his favorite line.

"See something you like?" I asked him playfully.

"Something I love actually." He said. I giggled.

"Well that something must be something very special."

"Oh. The most special thing I've ever had in my life."

I looked at the clock and we had about 30 minutes to get there. Edward saw what I was looking at and sighed.

"I guess we should be going now Bella." I nodded and kissed his lips. We walked out of the penthouse and went to Edward's Volvo. He opened the door for me and I thanked him. Edward started driving and then I got really nervous.

"Edward." I asked.

"Yes love?"

"What will everyone think? Do you think they will think that it's too fast? Or will they think that I'm not good for you." I asked, but said the last part quietly.

Edward pulled over into a parking lot and looked at me.

"Bella, love. It doesn't matter what anyone thinks. I love and you love me. That's all that matters. We know it is the right thing to do and we'll be together forever. You're mine Bella. I've waited to long for you. You are going to be Mrs. Cullen soon. Everyone else's opinion does not count. Plus, I really believe that they will al l be happy for us. They love us Bella. They even tried to push me to ask you out long ago, but I was too scared to ask. Everyone WILL be thrilled that you're going to be my wife Bella."

"Really?" I asked unconvincingly. I knew I was being silly. I just didn't want to disappoint anyone.

"Really Bella. They will be thrilled."

I relaxed and nodded. He kissed me and started to drive again. We drove in comfortable silence as Claire De Lune filled the air. We arrived at the Chez Shea and asked the waiter for reservations under Cullen. When we got to our table, we saw Rose, Alice, Esme, Jasper, and Emmet. I wonder where Carlisle is. I thought to myself.

Before I even took a step, Alice came barging over.

"Bella I'm so happy for you." I smiled and thanked her and everyone.

"Would you please explain the pictures of you two on People magazine?" asked Rose.

I sighed and told them the whole story about Chris and Boston.

Everyone was happy for us- just like Edward said, but they didn't know about our engagement. After everyone ordered there food, Edward and I decided to tell them.

"Everyone, Edward and I have a surprise to tell you." Everyone looked at us anxiously. Alice practically bounced off of her chair. Before I could finish, Edward said the rest.

"Bella and I are engaged." Everyone stared wide eyed at us with there mouths hanging open.

"Are you serious?" Alice said unconvincingly.

"Yes" I told her and showed her the ring.

"OMG. It's grandma's engagement ring! I'm so happy for you guys." Alice and Jasper ran up and hugged us.

"Good job Eddie. Make sure you take care of her." Jasper said warningly and teasingly. I laughed as well as everyone else. Emmet and Rosalie both congratulated us and then there was Esme.

Esme walked up to both of us and kissed us both on the cheek.

"Bella, I have always thought of you as my daughter, and now you really can be. You are my daughter in every way. I am so happy Edward has found someone as kind and caring as you. You two are made for each other. Welcome to the family!" She smiled brightly and genuinely at me. Tears swelled my eyes and I hugged her.

"Thank-you Esme." I said while tears of happiness streamed down.

"No thank- you Bella. You've made my son the happiest I have ever seen him." She turned and faced Edward.

"You better take care of Bella, Edward and I am so happy for you." Edward gave her a hug and she kissed his cheek.

"B-E-L-L-A!" I heard Alice call.

"How much do you love me?" she asked so sad. It almost hurt me to see her like this.

"Alice, I love you so much, but why would you ask. You know how much I do." I said confused.

"Can I PLEASE plan your wedding? Please Bella please! I promise I won't go overboard!" She gave me her pout and I groaned. How could I resist the pout.

I sighed reluctantly and said "Fine Alice, you can plan my wedding."

"YAY! Thank you so much Bella. Rust, me you won't regret it. We have to pick out the wedding cake, flowers, locations, catering, and ----" I cut her off then.

"Alice, I just got engaged yesterday! Why are you planning now?" I asked. I really wasn't a big fan of being the center of attention.

Alice rolled her eyes. "Bella. Do you know how much effort and time it takes to plan a wedding?" I was about to reply when she cut me off.

"Don't answer that. Bella. I thought you said I could plan your wedding. I just want everything to be perfect." She said sadly with a pout. It broke my heart to see Alice this way.

"Oh I'm sorry Alice. You can start planning the wedding." Her face immediately brightened up.

"Thank you Bella!" She ran over to talk plans over with Rose. I sighed and decided to look for Edward. He was talking to Jasper and Emmet about me.

I heard Emmet say warningly to Edward.

"If you hurt Bella, Edward, you'll have to deal with me. I want her to be happy- even if you're my brother. She's my little sister."

I heard Edward say "I would never hurt her Emmet. She's my life. I wouldn't survive without her. I love her so much it hurts. I want to spend the rest of my life with her." I smiled at that.

Emmet patted Edward on the back. "Congratulations bro."

"Thanks Emmet" he said. This was all so sweet. There was so much love surrounding the restaurant. I decided to cut in then.

I wrapped my arms around Edward's waist and Edward froze. I chuckled and he relaxed once he turned around and saw me. I tip-toed and kissed him.

"I told you everyone would me thrilled" he said while I was snuggled in his chest.

"Of course. You're always right!" I said jokingly. We both laughed and sat down at the table.

Our food arrived and we all ate. Alice kept begging me to make the color of the wedding pink, but she already used her pout to plan the wedding and there's NO way that it's going to be pink.

"Alice. I want it to be blue." I said arguing with her.

She sighed. "But Bella, pink is so pretty!" I rolled my eyes at her and gave Edward a save-me-right-now look. He chuckled and shrugged at me. The traitor! I tried to give him my best glare, but I couldn't. I could never be mad at Edward.

Suddenly an idea popped in my head. "Alice. I have a compromise for you."

Her head jerked up and she eyed me suspiciously. "Okay what is it?" she asked skeptically.

"You make the color blue- she was going to argue then but I cut her- and you get to design my wedding dress!" I said smugly.

She squealed and thanked e. "Okay deal! I can't wait to design it Bella. I'm going to make it beautiful. Pure white or ivory? No I think pure white would look better." And she kept rambling on and on to herself.

I looked over at Esme and noticed that I forgot to ask about Carlisle. I looked at Edward and asked "Where is Carlisle?"

"I have no idea love. Let me ask mom." He turned to Esme.

"Mom, where is dad?" he asked.

"Oh. He had an emergency at the hospital about a test result on one of his patients. I thought he would arrive sooner. I think it must be really important, but I know he would be so happy and proud of you." She said sincerely.

Edward smiled and thanked her and just then my phone rang. I picked it up and it said Carlisle.

"Hello?" I asked into the phone.

"Bella is that you?" he asked in a rush voice.

"Yes Carlisle. How are you?"

"Bella, I need you to come to the hospital IMMEDIATELY. No questions ask. There is not enough time. You need to come now. Bring Edward if you want to too. " He said sincerely and urgent.

"Okay I'll be there in about 10 minutes."

"Okay, but hurry!" he exclaimed.

Edward looked at me curiously.

"That was Carlisle. He said I had to go to the hospital now. I have no idea why. He said it was an emergency and there is no time to waste." I started to get up and grab my coat and Edward followed me.

We said goodbye to the family telling them there was an emergency and raced to the hospital.

What could it be? I thought to myself. I hope it isn't Charlie, but surely Carlisle would tell me on the phone if it was. I got really nervous. Edward made soothing circles with his thumb.

What I didn't know was that tonight was the night that I'm going to find out the biggest fight of my life. Happiness was ruined.
