A/N: And so the Christmas decorations are down. I'm gonna try and update my other stories today. I'm trying to keep this story in the way that Stephenie Meyer had it, with a few of my ideas; all rights to her of course!

"See anything you like, Bella?" Alice asked, coming around the rack of dresses I was looking through.

"No," I sighed, "There was one, but it didn't interest me that much."

"It's just a small wedding," Alice added.

"Says the girl who's going to make this the greatest wedding ever," I said under my breath. Alice's chiming laugh made me look at her.

"You're right about that," She agreed, "however, you don't have to go all out on the dress if you don't want."

"So this is the only thing I get a say on?" I asked, looking at another dress.

"Oh come on, I've given you plenty of says on this wedding." Alice replied. She pulled out a long white dress and handed it to me.

"I may not need air, Alice, but are you sure I'll be able to breath in that thing?" I asked her, looking at the waist of the dress. That had to two inches thinner than mine.

"Just try it on," She answered, throwing it into my arms and pushing me into the dressing room. I was right, the dress was a little too air-blocking. It must have had a built-in corset. I stepped out to show Alice. "Hm…maybe it is a little too tight…"

"A little?" I asked.

"I'll find a different one," Alice replied, turning towards one of the dress racks. I smirked for a second; Edward was probably going to rip the dress off me afterwards anyway.

"Here try this one on," Alice said, handing me a new one. "What?" She caught my smirk.

"Nothing," I answered, shaking my head of the idea. I took the dress from her hands and went back in to change into the new dress.

Three million dresses later, we found the perfect dress. It was quite long, but it was immensely beautiful. The sleeves and back were covered with a thin layer of lace, buttons holding the middle together. It went down to my waist, and the rest lay in a waterfall of white fabric. Alice squealed with delight, "This is the one! You don't think it's too much?"

"No," I shook my head, "I think it's perfect…you have to make sure Edward doesn't catch you thinking about it."

"My mind is sealed."

Edward was leaning against the door frame when Alice and I had returned. "Remember." I warned. Alice rolled her eyes.

"It's like you don't trust me," She smirked, "I told you, he won't know…unless he wants to ruin his own surprise." We stepped out of the car and he held his arms out for me. I quickly walked over to him and wrapped my arms around his waist, hugging him tightly.

"Did Alice kill you yet?" He smirked, kissing my forehead.

"Not yet," I replied. Alice snorted and left to find Jasper. "No I had fun today…once we found the right dress."

"I never thought I'd ever hear you say you had fun dress shopping." Edward teased.

"Well, I'll admit, it's not all bad." I said. He laughed and pulled me inside, closing the door behind us. Renesmee sat at the piano; he held my hand for a moment longer before he went back to join her. He began playing a familiar melody, and soon after, Renesmee followed. I stood behind Edward and wrapped my arms around his neck. He smiled and leaned his head against mine. I watched as he taught her more. I smiled and softly kissed behind his ear before going to sit down on the couch.

I leaned against the door frame, watching as Edward put Renesmee to bed. She had begged him to hum her to sleep; and that's exactly what he did. Put it this way: it didn't take a lot of begging. He caved in easily for his girls; I smirked. When she finally fell asleep, he quietly joined me and closed the door behind him. "What?" He asked, watching my amused expression.

"Nothing," I replied, taking his hand in mine.

"What I wouldn't give to read your mind," Edward said, leaning down to kiss me. "As I've said before, it's very frustrating."

"And here I thought you were used to it."

"Not when you say 'nothing' that to me," He claimed, moving his lips down to my neck to gently bite the skin.

"Well you'll just have to deal with it," I teased. He groaned.

"Please Bella." Edward was begging me now. "I like to know what you're thinking…I'd give anything; I'd do anything."

"You're that desperate?" I asked.

"It's driving me insane," Edward replied, wrapping his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him. He pressed his lips to my ear and whispered, "Please." I shivered as his breath hit my skin, and I turned to pull him into our room. I leaned up to kiss him, hoisting myself up to wrap my legs around his waist. I felt him smile under my lips and he held my back, holding me closer. I tangled my fingers in his hair, using my free hand to close the door behind us.

Edward let out a playful growl in the back of his throat, placing me softly on the mattress as he climbed on top of me. He brought his lips to mine again and slowly began unbuttoning my shirt. I hated that he was using human speed; he was taunting me. I placed my hands over his and ripped the fabric loose; Edward laughed and kissed down to my chest, tugging off my jeans.

I pulled his shirt off over his head and ran my fingers up his chest to the back of his neck to bring his lips to mine again. He smirked, giving me a small kiss before moving to my ear, "Will you tell me now?"

I laughed and threw my head back onto the pillows, "You're such a tease." I should have expected this, especially since Renesmee was in her room. I grabbed his shirt off the floor and put it on over my almost bare body, since the threads on his were still intact. I knew he was waiting for my answer. He could wait.

A/N: I'm gonna update my other stories now, I'll try to update more on this story later on tonight, or tomorrow.
