Chapter 43:
Bella POV:
It's been three months since we have gotten back.
The Monster House as everyone calls it is finally complete so everyone can start moving in and designing their suites. Wedding Planning is in full swing, the guest list is extensive. Who knew there were so many of us in the world? The board was still arguing over a few touchy topics. Well I guess arguing is a strong word…..it's more like a debate, and they all just want me to put my input on it. But I refuse to influence their decisions. Although I am surprised that is has taken 3 months to come this close to a decision. Today was the day I told the board they needed a decision and it had to be unanimous or it doesn't pass. Usually we go with majority rule, but this was just too important. They had just an hour left before the meeting, and after the meeting was over it was off to look at place around the property for the ceremony and then we have to talk about decorations. It was going to be a long day.
I walked down the hallway of everyone's offices because mine was at the very end. I open the tall wooden door to find my office covered in vases of red roses. Emmett was always being so cute. I turned to the security camera and blew my main man a kiss.
I walk over to my desk to find a cute little note that Emmett hand written me
It read:
My Beautiful Bella,
I know today will be a long day. I have a surprise for you tonight. I have already cleared your schedule. Meet me at the stable tonight at Midnight. Love you forever and always.
-Em-
He is literally the sweetest thing ever. Realizing I only had a couple minutes to be down in the board room so we could start on time. For some reason all of them agreed to never enter the room unless I am seated and ready to begin.
I race my way down the wall and down our grand staircase, my heels making the awesome 'Bella means business sound" as the hit the marble flooring. Our house was a little eccentric, but seeing's as how we are far away from humans so we won't be noticed we don't have to ever leave this house. With Alice around that leaves her to the go big or go home. She convinced me to go big.
I walked into the board room took my place at the head of the table, and I swear as soon as the heard my butt it the seat and my folder hit the table they were here in their seats.
Before I forget to mention the boys whined there were more ladies on the board (because apparently I count) so Edward got thrown on to the board to even it out.
Bella: As everyone knows this vote today will change the vampire world significantly for everyone involved. I understand both sides of every argument that everyone on this board has presented in the past three months, I believe everyone had some valid points. As I have said from the beginning that this vote because of it being so important that it has to be unanimous for this to past. We will start voting now. Carlisle, why don't you go first?
Carlisle: I have given my argument. I have listened and considered everyone else's as well. I don't see any harm coming from this. Once it is past we can add rules and consequences for wrong doings. My vote is a yes.
Bella: Eleazor, your vote please.
Eleazor: This will be a positive change in the life of a vampire. It may seems strange but it will mean a lot. My vote is a yes.
Bella: Jasper.
Jasper: I was against it and didn't want to hear anything further on it, but after the arguments that were given of those who supported it I cannot find substantial grounds to be against it as long as rules are in place.
Bella: And there most certainly will be. Edward?
Edward: My vote is a yes.
Bella: Maria
Maria: As Jasper has said at first the idea was like a shot in the dark. I couldn't really see it, but after some of my fellow board members gave their argument. Mainly these ladies, it is a very compelling idea. I say yes.
Bella: Britt?
Maria: I have been for it since day one. I feel like everyone in our kind deserves this, so yes.
Bella: Tanya?
Tanya: I love this idea. It truly melts my frozen dead heart. Yes.
Bella: Rose?
Rose: one thousand times yes. I was a yes vote in the bag as soon as you mentioned this.
Bella: Alright, everyone has voted. This is now going to be put in the book, and tomorrow we will be discussing the rules and consequences. If anyone has anything specific bring it tomorrow. Please don't let this out quite yet as all the details have not been put in concrete yet. Everyone is free to go.
They all nodded and left the room. I sat there quietly for a moment and went up to get the official book of laws to add this to it. I had just picked up my pen. When….my lovely fairy friend came dancing into the room.
Bella: Alice, how are you today?
Alice: Perfect and bubbly and excited as always!
Bella: I seriously love you.
Alice: Love you to. Now let's go pick a spot!
Bella: Yes ma'am.
A/N: Had to leave it with a little mystery to keep everyone's interest. What does everyone think the board voted in as a new rule? Leave me a review of your ideas! Thanks for reading!
