A/N: Sorry guys this will be my only update this weekend. Tomorrow is my 21st birthday so I will be a little pre-occupied!

Stephenie will you please let me have Jasper and Edward for my birthday? I'll give them back after a few hours, I promise.

Chapter Twenty-One

After the manicures and pedicures things got a little better. I wasn't subjected to Alice's facials anymore because I'm a vampire now. I have perfect skin.

We turned on a movie, The Notebook, and all had a good sob fest. Of course there were no actual tears but it was close enough.

I was laying on the floor snuggled up between Rosalie and Alice. Esme was beside Alice on our little pallet.

After The Notebook was over we all sat around and gossiped about our men and, of course, the latest fashion trends.

Esme got a little bored after a few minutes of Rose and Alice's discussion of the new Chanel line and slunk out of the room, saying she was hungry and wanted to go join the boys hunting.

I shot her a glare and she responded with apologetic eyes before closing the door behind her.

We talked long into the night about anything and nothing until the boys returned and everyone had to get ready for school.

Even though they tortured me with the manicures, a little girl time was just what I had been needing.

One Week Later

I absolutely cannot believe it. I am getting married in three days.

The house has been a mad house these last few days. Alice had been scurrying around trying to tie all the loose ends for the wedding and everyone has been on their best behavior because the whole Denali clan was staying with us.

I had to admit, I was a little taken aback by their beauty at first, but apparently they only had eyes for Edward, Tanya especially. She was more than happy that he was single again.

And they were all super nice. They all offered to help out as much as possible for the wedding, but Alice would have nothing of it. They were guests and guests did not work.

Time was practically flying by, which I was eternally thankful for, because it gave me less time to be nervous.

Jasper was continuously by my side making sure I was okay. If he ever felt a hint of my nerves he would send me some of his calming waves to make me relax. He really did have a lovely power.

The Denali clan had all gone shopping for their dresses for my wedding and Alice and Rosalie had tagged along. Alice mentioned something about making sure they didn't clash with the decorations, but I knew shej just really wanted to shop, like always.

Before they left though, I saw Tanya come out of Edward's room, and I silently hoped that she was cheering him up. Maybe Tanya and Edward were meant to be together after all.

I hated that he was unhappy because of me. I wanted him to move on.

He came down the stairs after her and smiled at me. I smiled back, hoping that meant we were friends again.

Jasper and Emmett were playing video games again and I was sitting on the couch watching.

"I got next," Edward said casually as he plopped down on the sofa next to Emmett.

Jasper silently handed him the controller after Emmett had killed his man. I laughed at his melancholy face. He was just too cute when he was sad.

"Jasper can I talk to you for a minute? It's about your vows," Carlisle called from his office.

Jasper left and Edward and Emmett continued playing. Edward was beating Emmett this time and I could tell he was getting angry. When Edward killed his man he threw the controller down and stalked off to his room, leaving Edward and I alone.

"You wanna play me? I'll go easy on you."

"Ha! Go easy all you want but I will kick you ass. I beat Emmett and Jasper all the time. They won't let me play anymore."

He laughed and handed me the controller, "We'll see about that."

After a while we were both laughing. The game was pretty evenly matched. He was much better than Emmett and Jasper.

We talked casually between blows and I was thankful that things weren't awkward between us. But then the conversation took a different turn.

"Bella, I'm really sorry about what happened the other day. It was wrong of me to kiss you and then to get upset about it afterwards. I hope you can forgive me."

"I forgive you Edward. I just don't want us to be enemies."

Neither one of us took our eyes away from the game, making the conversation a little easier for me.

"I want you to know that I'm happy for you. You know that that was always what I wanted for you, whether it was with me or not. And I can see that Jasper makes you happy."

"He does."

"As long as you are happy, I will be okay."

I stole a quick glance at him and our eyes met. We both smiled at each other before turning back to the game.

"I see you and Tanya are getting along pretty well. How's that working out for you?"

"It's better this time. She's not as pushy. I might actually give her a chance."

"That's great. I like her. You look good together, too."

"Bella can I ask you something?"

"Of course."

"If you don't want me to then just tell me no. I don't want you to feel pressured or anything. It was just something I was thinking about. So don't feel bad about saying no, I won't be upset."

"Just ask me Edward."

"Do you think that…I mean, would it be okay if….no, would you like me to give you away? At your wedding I mean."

He paused the game and I turned to look at him. At first I thought he was joking, but when I saw his face I could tell that he really wanted to. I suddenly felt really happy.

"Oh, Edward. That would be wonderful."

"Really? I mean, I think I should ask Jasper first, don't you?"

"He'll say yes. As long as you don't try to kiss me first."

I thought I had taken that a little too far but he laughed and I knew it was okay.

I put my arms around him and hugged him. He hugged me back but not as hard, which was okay too. "I'm really glad we can be friends after all of this Edward."

"Me too Bella. I wouldn't want it any other way. You and Jasper are going to be very happy together. And I should know, I saw it in Alice's head."

"Did she see a happy ending for you too, I hope?"

"Not yet, but I hadn't quite made up my mind about some things when I read that. I have now."

"With Tanya? If you don't mind me asking."

"Nope I don't mind. And yes, I'm actually thinking about asking her out."

"Good for you Edward. Now let's get back to this game so I can kick your ass."

A/N: Yay! Everything is happy again. For now. (Insert Evil Laugh) The wedding is coming up next but again, it won't be for a few more days until I get to write again. Happy Birthday to Me!
