Bella's POV
School finished last week, and believe me, and I mean…really believe me….I had never been as happy in my entire long life.
"Kiss goodbye, you cannot see the groom the night before the wedding." Alice chimed with her happy annoying voice.
"Seriously Alice, I don't believe in all that traditional stuff, just let Edward stay, go find someone else to bother for the night." I mocked while pinning Edward to the bed with my thighs.
"Will you just stop ruining this for me Bella?" Alice's voice was starting to grate on me.
"Look Bella" Edward started while tracing his hands up my thighs "things will be much easier if I just leave for the evening"
"Yeah…what he said" Alice mocked.
"If I wanted my finance in another room tonight do you honestly believe I would have him pinned down to the bed with my thighs?" I squeezed my thighs tighter around Edward so he knew he was not to move.
"Bella seriously, I will get Jasper and Emmett up here if I have to, but one way or another Edward will be out of this house tonight."
And you will be dust under the carpet in a minute love!
"Bella, baby, let me up" Edward began to shuffle under me and my eyes bore into his.
"If looks could kill" Edward laughed out.
"Yeah, Alice would be, but a distant memory" I turned to Alice then, smiling my happiest smile.
"EMMETT" Alice's squeaky voice yelled, two seconds later, Emmett, Jasper and Rose were there witnessing my humiliation of having Edward pinned down tightly.
"Get him" Alice pointed over, I glared at Emmett daring him to come near me.
"Jazz" Emmett whispered and then the bastards were on me, they had me pinned down on the floor and Edward had Alice's little hands wrapped around his wrists.
"Get off her" Edward fumed…oh I loved my man "do you not think you are going a little overboard here?"
"Oh Edward Cullen believe me, things could be much worse, much, much worse, believe me" Alice's tone sounded deadly; I eased my thrashing and lay still.
"Just go Edward, I'll see you tomorrow" I looked over at Edward and a smile rose on his lips.
"I want to kiss Bella goodbye, if you would all leave us alone for a few moments"
"I THINK NOT" Alice shouted.
"GET OUT" Edward roared and oh my god, I think I may have a came a little "Five minutes and I will be downstairs." His voice was confident and sexy, oh so damned sexy I wanted him…and he knew it, who was I trying to kid, the whole family smelt my need for him in the air.
Everyone looked at Alice as though she was the leader and I snorted with disgust, Alice nodded once and everyone left the room, Edward had me in his arms two seconds later and we both rolled onto the bed, kissing as though it was the final time we would ever kiss each other, rather than knowing we had eternity together as husband and wife.
"I love you so much Bella."
"I need you so much Edward" I called while tugging at his trousers.
"We cannot love, I have to go, Alice will claw my eyes out and try to stake me with her finger nails" I would have laughed if I knew it was not the truth.
"We have five minutes" I called while tugging at his jumper "we only need three" I urged.
"Bella did you honestly just suggest we have the quickest sex session in history?" I thought momentarily and then nodded.
"Not going to happen love, when I make love to you I want to have all of you, nice, slow, rough, every single way I can, not some lame ass quick thing"
"It's a one off Edward" a growl erupted from me.
"I have to go" Edward pulled away from me standing up and I swear for a brief second I hated him for not letting me have my own way.
"I love you" Edward leant over the bed and kissed me briefly on the lips, he ran out the room before I called "I love you too" I heard a laugh downstairs and truly wished to hurt every single one of the mother fucking arseholes.
I heard the car pull away and I drifted downstairs staring at Alice as though she was the devil, my eyes glared at her, my mouth was tight, my teeth clenched together and it took everything in me not to rip out her entire head of hair….well what little there was anyway.
"You'll thank me in the long run." Alice called cheerily while clapping her hands.
"No Alice, I don't believe she will." Rose laughed out.
"And you," I pointed over to Rose "could have tried to stop her."
"Oh stop it, its play time, I have the nail polish, the face masks and the foot rubs all ready for our girly hen night." Alice was seriously excited about all this!
"Oh….whoopy for fucking me!" I snapped turning around and heading for the living room to take a seat and pretend to watch TV, it was basically so I could piss her off.
"Stop being a moody bugger Bella, I have so much planned for us tonight you will forget who Edward even is." Alice soothingly called.
"I doubt that." I snapped while pressing the remote to change channels.
Esmee came into the room full of happiness, her mouth rose into a beautiful smile and she came to sit next to me.
"You know Bella" Esmee started "this means so much to me for my three girls to spend quality time with me, without the men here, I have never experienced this and it has made me so happy that the four of us can do this."
Oh great the fucking guilt trip! And YES I fell for it…because it was Esmee and Esmee did not have a bad bone in her body and she was trying to make the situation good for everyone…why could it not have been Rose who said that? I could have ripped her eyes out and not felt an ounce of guilt.
I rolled my eyes and shook my head "fine" I announced "let's get the party started" a false smile spread across my face and Alice jumped up and down clapping her hands…BITCH
One hour later – Torturing commenced
Two hours later – Torturing continued
Three hours later – Was the fucking bottle of vanilla essence ever going to run out?
Four hours later – "Alice I think the fumes are making me dizzy" my eyes felt like they were burning also. Alice shook her head just ignoring me.
Five hours later – I could have sworn there was a never ending supply of creams, because the thousand already on my body did not seem to put a dent in Alice's collection.
Six hours later – "I think it's time for me to go to bed" I smiled out. "Nice try Bella, get the nail polish out of my bag behind you" Alice called sternly.
Seven hours later – Hell was looking more and more tempting.
Eight hours later – I looked over at Esmee and smiled internally, even she now began to realise why this was my worst nightmare!
Nine hours later – "I have to be getting married soon Alice?" Alice shook her head and I swear a tear trickled down my face, because even my vampire body felt sorry for me.
Ten hours later – I looked at the clock and it was only two am, Edward left just before four and it felt like I had not seem him in weeks.
Eleven hours later – "I beg for mercy Alice, let me be….please?"
Twelve hours later – I bet you can guess what my answer was an hour ago?
Thirteen hours later – "How about we watch a film?" Esmee called I turned to her so grateful for any help to get all of Alice's creams, varnish, cosmetics, everything away from me, Alice just smiled at Esmee and politely called "not today" Esmee took a deep breath and sat down looking over at me with a grimace, I could tell she was saying 'I tried'….yeah well serves yourself right, you shouldn't have guilt tripped me.
Fourteen hours later – "Should we go feed?" Rosalie called, I sat upright quickly and smiled "yeah I could eat" I begged, it was now six am and I was getting married in six hours, an hour eating…well I could stretch it to two to get rid of Alice, seemed like a fantastic idea to me. "No" Were Alice's only words.
Fifteen hours later – "Right that's it, that is most definitely it, I am getting up, taking a shower, going to read my book to de-stress and I will meet you at ten am to get ready for this wedding" I stood up to run upstairs, but Alice grabbed my shoulders and yanked me back down "Stay" were her threatening word….I stayed.
Sixteen hours later – "Can vampires physically feel tired?" I asked, Alice and Rose shook there head, I could have sworn Esmee nodded!
Eighteen hours later – "Okay you have one hour to do what you want and then you start to get ready" Alice called.
"Excuse me Alice, I thought I was virtually ready" I called shocked.
"Oh please Bella, that was just the warm up" Alice called again; Rose looked over with a smile on her face.
"Just wait for your day" I moaned and stormed up stairs.
I grabbed my phone and called Edward, he answered immediately "It's been hell" I cried out.
"I miss you" Edward purred down the phone.
"Edward I love you, but ever ask me to marry you again and I think I may kill you, because my hen night consisted of eighteen hours of pure hell….PURE HELL" Edward laughed at that "oh Edward, I am NOT joking"
"Oh love, I am sorry" Edward was trying to hold in his laugh "what did Alice make you do?"
"Edward it's physically too painful to talk about, you have no idea what I have just been through, if I were human I would only be able to imagine it felt like…..sitting in a room for a month with a fucking nut job" yeah that about summed it up.
"Emmett and Jasper are here" Edward moaned while I heard pounding on the door over the phone.
"See you in a few hours babe" I virtually cried down the line.
"I love you" were Edward's final words.
I missed him already.
The next few hours were a blur, Alice whizzed around me like a force to be reckoned with and for the first time in hundreds of years, I wished I could have a glass of alcohol to calm my nerves, because for some ridiculous reason I was feeling nervous.
Nerves….a vampire? Who would have guessed?
"There here" Esmee confirmed and I sat up straight, Edward was downstairs and I just wanted to see him, touch him, kiss him.
I loved him.
Alice and Rose came in looking stunning, dressed in simple, elegant long golden dresses, matching my ivory dress with slight gold patterns, Alice had outdone herself.
"Thank you" I smiled over at Alice.
"What are best friends for?" Alice called while walking over and hugging me
"What indeed" Rose laughed out.
The wedding was being held in the garden, it was a small private wedding, old friends from all us where there, Edward was not enthralled the volturi were attending our wedding, and I understood they could be very intimidating to vampires, but they were like family to me.
"Let's go" Alice clapped out and Rose and Alice headed down the stairs, I followed ten seconds later, as I went down the stairs, everywhere was decorated with flowers, it looked beautiful.
Felix waited at the bottom of the stairs, I smiled as I seen him, he had agreed to give me away, he was my male best friend and there was no one in the world I would have rather had walk me down the isle.
"Thank you" I smiled at him.
"It's my honour Bella, you look beautiful" Felix hugged me gently and then we headed to the door.
This was it!
As I turned the corner, the first face I searched for was Edward, no one else mattered in the world to me right at that moment in time, when I caught the smile on his face I felt at home, happy, in love….My Edward.
It felt like I floated down the isle, I don't recall walking, I don't recall the time it took to get down, I just remember looking at Edward's face and feeling so happy he loved me, so honoured he wanted me for eternity that the smile could not be taken from my face.
"You look beautiful" Edward called while taking my hand and kissing it briefly "I love you"
I smiled at Edward and whispered "I love you too" because hell….I fucking well did.
The ceremony was quick and painless and when "you may kiss the bride" was called Edward pulled me into his arms, and kissed me passionately, there was not a noise to be heard, when we pulled away from each other, we stared into each others eyes for the briefest of moments, smiling at each other feeling content.
We turned to see our guests sitting there as still as stone with smiles on their faces.
Felix whipped me up in his arms hugging me "congratulations Bella" were his first words, "but we need to get you inside, there seems to be some trouble"….
