Alright I know this took forever but I've been in school all summer. I've been writing at least two papers per week in the english class I was taking and I got an A in the class! Ha! Ok so this IS the last chapter. I'm so sad that its over but I really don't know how to continue this and I want to start a new story and work on Starting Over a bit more. Ok so on to the last chapter...I do not own twilight of course.
Previously in the last chapter...
"Hey Edward wait!" He turned around and looked at me. I reached in the box full of his chocolates. "One for the road?" He smiled brightly and nodded. I threw it at him and he caught it.
"Thank you love. You better get some rest you have a big day tomorrow."
"We have a big day tomorrow."
"Yes, we do."
"Oh my god Edward! Lets go!" I heard Emmett yell from downstairs. I laughed.
"Have fun. Bag a mountain lion for me."
"Will do love. Goodnight."
"Night." And with that he left my room and shut the door behind him. I turned towards my nightstand and shut the lamp off. I laid there for a moment under the covers, thinking. Tomorrow I would be a married woman. I shook my head in disbelief and closed my eyes and let the darkness take me.
"Bella...Bella get up Bella", I felt a light shake on my arm.
"Five more minutes", I managed to mutter out half asleep.
"I didn't want it to have to come to this but you leave me no choice", within seconds the covers were yanked off of me and I had a screaming pixie on top of me screaming in my face.
"Get...up...before...I...make...you!" Alice said while jumping on top of me.
"Ok stop it! I'm up! I'm Up! Get off of me!" I yelled. Alice got off of me laughing with a satisfied smile on her face.
"Who is threatening my beautiful wife to be? Don't make me come in there to check if she is all in one piece Alice!" I heard Edward yell from outside the door. Alice's eyes widened in horror and she was at my door in a flash.
"Edward Cullen you open this door and you will regret it for the rest of eternity! Go scamper off with your brothers, we have work to do", I rose an eyebrow at Alice and mouth the word 'work' at her and she nodded. I heard Edward outside of the door laughing.
"Ok I'm going now...and Bella love, I know you can hear me. I can't wait to see your later. I love you", I smiled, listening to Edward's voice.
"I love you to Edward", then I heard Edward walk away. A few seconds later Esme and Rosalie came barging through my door.
"Bella, we have a surprise for you", Rosalie said to me smiling brightly.
"What's the surprise?" I saw my door creak open and saw Sarah enter. "Sarah!" I yelled and jumped off my bed. I ran to her and gave her a hug.
"Bella! I missed you so much!" Sarah yelled just as excited as I was.
"Ok focus people!" Alice said, clapping her hands loudly. "We only have 4 hours and 58 seconds to make Bella the most beautiful bride on the face of the planet. We need to get moving!"
"Can't I eat breakfast first?" I groaned. She shook her head.
"No time for that", then my stomach growled loudly and everyone burst into a fit of giggles. Alice rolled her eyes. "Ok fine Bella. Esme go make her some breakfast, we don't want her passing out of starvation walking down the isle." Esme smiled and left my room.
"Ok, I have everything set up in my bathroom. Chop chop people lets get a move on!" Alice grabbed my hand and marched me out of my room while everyone followed. I walked into Alice's bathoom and she really did have everything set up. All of her makeup was laid out, her curling iron was set, and there were a few bottles of nail polish. Alice sat me down in the chair in front of hr vanity and the girls got to work right away. Sarah sat down on her knees next to me while she did my toe nails and Alice and Rosalie were on both sides of me arguing about what they were going to do with my hair. A few minutes later, Esme entered the bathroom with my breakfast.
The hours went by fast...way to fast. I couldn't help but think what Edward was up to. I missed him dearly. Then had and idea pop in my head. As soon as I thought of it a pad of paper and pen were dropped in my lap. I looked up to Alice who as smiling.
"He'll love it", I smiled back at Alice and began writing my little note to Edward:
Edward,
It's finally here, our wedding day. Can you believe it? I've waited 200 years for this day and I'm so happy that I'm sharing it with you. I still get the same butterflies when I look into your eyes as I did the first time I saw you. Your my best friend, my lover, and my soulmate. I can't wait to spend the rest of eternity with you. I love you. See you in a hour.
Yours Forever,
Bella
I smiled, satisfied with what I wrote. It wasn't much, but I needed to talk to him some how.
"Would you like me to go and give that to him dear?" Esme asked. I nodded.
"Yes Mom, thank you", I handed her my note and she exited the bathroom.
"Hold still Bella", Alice said while she held my head, carefully curling my hair. After a few minutes, Esme appeared back in the bathroom with a note in her hand.
"He wrote something for you as well", I smiled and took the note from her hands immediately. I looked at the paper and saw Edward's perfect handwriting and began to read:
Bella,
If someone would have told me a year ago that I would be in love and getting married I wouldn't have believe them. I'm glad no one told me you were coming, you were a pleasant surprise. The moment I saw you get out of that car with Benjamin and walk up the driveway on that first day, I was drawn to you. You were the most woman I had ever seen. I know I've told you this before, but you need to know again. You've changed me so much Bella. You've destroyed my negativity towards myself and I am forever in your debt. I'm so happy to have finally found you my love. I love you so much and I cannot wait to see you walk down that isle and get to keep you for eternity.
With all my heart,
Edward
"Don't you dare cry Bella I swear!" Alice shrieked. I laughed and nodded. I set the note down and looked at myself in the mirror. I looked like a different person. Well...I still looked like me, just beautiful. My makeup was flawless thanks to Rosalie. Sarah and Esme both did an amazing job on my nails and toe nails. Alice was still working on my hair, but it was practically done. My hair was simple. My hair was pulled back half way up while dozens of curls fell onto my shoulders. Alice was putting the finishing touches on me, placing small diamond studded angel wings, one on both sides, to hold back the half of my hair that was pulled back. Once Alice was satisfied, she took a step back and looked at me.
"Well ladies, I think we need to give ourselves a round of applause", we all laughed and clapped. "It's time to get in your dress!" Alice yanked me up from the chair and went into her room to grab my dress. My dress was simple and elegant at the same time. As soon as I saw it, I knew it was the one for me (picture in my profile). The straps were beaded as well as the waist and it had a and V-notch bodice. Both Alice and Esme helped me get into my dress. Esme held my hair up, while Alice zipped up the back. When my dress was secure, Alice, Esme, Rosalie, and Sarah all took a step back to look at me. I saw Sarah's eyes begin to well up.
"Don't even start Sarah", she laughed and whipped the tears from her eyes.
"I can't Help it Bella, you look so beautiful. My little girl has finally grown up!" We both laughed and hugged each other. Then there was a knock at the door. Alice went to answer it and my father walked in. He looked at me and his jaw dropped to the floor.
"Oh my...Bella", he rushed over to me and hugged me tightly. He pulled back and looked at me. "Bella you look lovely my dear daughter. Breathtaking."
"Thank you Dad."
"I have your necklace, may I?" I smiled and nodded. My father pulled out the beautiful necklace that was meant for my mother and placed it around my neck. I turned around to look at him and smiled.
"Thank you again Dad. I love it. Can you excuse me for a moment?"
"Of course dear", I walked over towards Alice's bathroom to retreive the earings Edward had given me and put them on. That is when I saw myself in the mirror for the first time. I did a little twirl and couldn't help but giggle. And that's when I saw her, staring back at me in the mirror. Amelia...my mother. I stood there for a moment. Was she really here or was I going crazy? I looked behind me and she wasn't there but when I looked back in the mirror she was still standing there.
"M...m...Mom?" She smiled and nodded.
"You look beautiful", she spoke back to me.
"Are you...are you really here?"
"Yes, I am really here. I don't have much time. I just couldn't miss telling my own daughter how beautiful she looks on her wedding day", Alice was going to have my head. I was crying like a maniac.
"Th-th-thank you."
"Bella, I hear you crying are you ok..." I heard my father coming. I looked to the doorway to see him come in. Then I looked back at the mirror and my mother was gone.
"She...she was here. Right here..."
"Who was here dear?"
"Mom she was...your going to think I'm crazy", he laughed.
"No don't think your crazy Bella."
"She was there, in the mirror smiling at me. She said I looked beautiful", my Dad smiled at me.
"You do. You look very beautiful. Actually, I don't think beautiful is quite the word to describe how amazing you look right now."
"Bella, we have to get the vale on! It's time!" I heard Alice yell from the other room.
"Ready?" I took a deep breath and nodded.
"Ready as I'll ever be", I left the bathroom and walked out into Alice's bedroom. Alice placed the vale on me while Rosalie was fixing my makeup. Then the door opened and Emmett entered.
"Everyone is ready down stairs nowwwwoah Bella! Look at you!" He ran over to me and gave me a quick hug. "You look awesome Bella. Edward has been freaking out all day and driving me and Jasper nuts. You better hurry down there", I laughed.
"Ok, ok were coming!" Emmett then ran out of the room.
"Alright, lets do this thing!" Alice yelled and everyone yelled back in response. Alice, Rosalie, and Sarah were my bridesmaids. Alice opened her bedroom door, and I heard the music playing downstairs.
"Ok Bella remember, don't leave the room until you hear the wedding march ok?" I nodded. "Ok, see you downstairs. You look beautiful girl", and with that the three of them left and made their way down stairs. I took my bouquet and stood by Alice's door waiting to leave. My father stood by my side and put his arm around mine.
"Relax, just remember Edward is waiting for you down there", I smiled at my father and then heard the wedding march begin. I took a deep breath and exited the bedroom with my father. Carefully, I walked down the stairs where I saw a room full of people standing up and staring at me. I couldn't look up at anyone, I was took focused on not falling down the stairs and ruining my dress. As soon as my foot hit the floor, I looked up and saw him. No one else in the room mattered but this beautiful man waiting for me at the end of the isle. He stared at me in a way I've never seen before. He was smiling widely. As soon as I reached the end of the isle, my father lifted the vale over my head and gave me a tight hug. He pulled back to give Edward a hug as well.
"Your day has finally come my son. Take care of her", I heard my father say to Edward. Edward nodded in response and looked back at me. I gave Alice my bouquet and took Edward's hands in mine and stood in front of him. He started down at me, smiling.
"Hi", he whispered. I smiled.
"Hi", I said sending my thoughts to him.
"You look beautiful", he whispered again.
"Thank you", I smiled at him.
The ceremony wasn't to long. Edward and I never took our eyes off each other. We stuck with normal wedding vows. Before I knew it,it was over.
"I now pronounce you man and wife. Edward, you may kiss your bride", without hesitation Edward leaned down and captured my lips with his own and the room erupted into applause. Edward took his hand in mine and we walked down the isle now as a married couple. When we were finally alone together, Edward pulled me to him and hugged me tightly. He pulled back and place a hand on my cheek.
"Hello my beautiful wife...wait beautiful cannot possibly cover how tempting you look right now. There are no words to describe how you look right now my love."
"Shut up and kiss me Husband", he smiled and smashed his lips into mine.
Then it was time for the reception. Everyone, and by everyone I mean all vampires, gathered in our backyard. My solo dance with Edward wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Having everyones eyes on me was terrifying though. After that I separated from Edward for a bit and danced and spent time with everyone.
"May I steal you away love?" Edward askes, wrapping his arms around me from behind kissing my neck. I nodded.
"Please", Edward took my hand and the two of us danced together once again. We didn't speak much...just a lot of kissing. The reception flew by in an instant and as soon as it was over, Alice was by my side pulling me away to get changed into my "wedding night" attire. I slipped out of my wedding dress and into the black short cotton dress Alice had laying out for me. As soon as I put it on I ran by outside to be by Edward's side again. We both said our goodbyes and thank yous to everyone as quickly as we could. I needed to be alone with Edward...now. Once we were finished, Edward took my hand and led me towards the forest.
"Where are we going Edward?" He kissed my forehead.
"Trust me love. Hop on my back", without hesitation I hopped on Edward's back and we were flying through the forest. And when we reached our destination, I was speechless. We were in our meadow. There were bright white Christmas lights hanging from the trees and candles surrounding a giant bed placed in the middle and it wasn't just any bed, it was our bed.
"Edward how-"
"Shhhh", he kissed my lips softly, "I'll tell you how I got all this stuff out here later. We have more important things that need to be attended to. Like...how exquisite you look right now." I smiled and got on the tips of my toes to kiss him.
"Edward today was the best day of my life. I love you so much. I'm so happy to be your wife."
"And I'm more then happy to now be your husband. I love you more then anything in this entire world Bella. I love you." Edward wrapped his arms around me and lifted me bridal style and place me on the bed where we began our happy life as a married couple for all of eternity.
THE END!
A/N
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for reading and sticking with my story! Thank you for all of the reviews. Even if you have been reading my story without reviewing, thank you! I appreciate you reading. So here is the dillio. I want to start a new story and I have two ideas and I want you all to pick your favorite. I started a new one a few weeks ago, but I don't know if I want to continue it.
The first one, the one already started, is called 21st Century Breakdown. It is based off the storyline of Christian and Gloria off of Green Day's new record. This story is set in a New Moon AU. Edward and the Cullens are vampires. Edward left Bella long ago and a war has broke out. Because of the war, Edward and Bella have become two completely different people while being away from one another. Can Edward and Bella find each other and themselves again in the chaos? Does love really prevail all?
The second idea I had is an idea I've had for a while. Edward finally changes Bella. But Bella doesn't have her same power as in Breaking Dawn. Her power is she can sleep and make other's sleep as well, including vampires. Edward finally gets the sleep he has desired for the last few decades. But while in the process, Edward awakens nightmares from his past which he hasn't thought about for years. They start to affect him. And Bella as explores her power, she figures out she can do much more then make you sleep...
Please tell me which one you like...or you can tell me they both suck. Either way let me know. In the meantime check out my other story Starting Over which I will be updating this weekend. Thanks again to everyone for reading my story! MWAH! Love you guys!
