BPOV

The dining table was all set and everyone was seated when I returned. No-one questioned where I had run off to as everyone probably thought I was with Edward.

"Where's Edward dear?" Esme asked when she caught site of me.

"Erm...I'll just go find him." I heard snickering behind me but as usual I ignored it.

I found Edward on one of the lounge chairs on the patio. His face was twisted in frustration as he held his phone to his ear.

"Edward?" I whispered quietly not wanting to disturb him. Of course he hadn't heard me and continued to listen to what the person the other end was saying while very nearly ripping out his hair.

Over the years I had learnt Edward had a habit of running his hands through his hair but when he pulled at the ends it was definitely a sign of aggravation.

"Edward?" My voice grew louder.

Edward quickly swivelled round on the chair to face me. He gave a "I got to go." Into the receiver before flipping the phone shut causing the call to end.

"Everyone's waiting for you. Dinners ready." The only response I got was a nod so I turned and walked back in the house, Edward not far behind.

"Hey cuz, I know you and Ed were together, you didn't have to be sneaky about it and pretend to go and find him. He could have just followed you in you know, unless you went for another quickie." Em waggled his eyebrows suggestively as we entered the dining room. Everyone was in hysterics and I shot Em a weak smile while Edward gave him a sharp evil eye.

Edward walked up to the table and pulled out a chair for me, he waited until I was settled in before tucking the chair in. Finally after a little bit of fuss he settled into his own chair.

"Hey you big monkey, why do you never do sweet things like that for me?" Rose questioned as she through a small piece of garlic bread at Em's head.

The piece of bread landed on the table so Em picked it up, shrugged his shoulders and put it in his mouth. He then grabbed the closest bread basket and dumped the contents of garlic bread on his plate before he started stuffing his face.

"Of course the only thing you're interested in is food." Rose muttered. Her hand rose and a loud 'thwack' echoed as Rose's hand connected with the Em's head.

"Ouch Rosie, what's all this violence for." Em whined. "See Esme, your daughter abuses me. Save me!"

"Sometimes I really wonder why I'm dating you." Rose muttered.

"Coz you wuv me." Em said is a very disturbing little girl voice while fluttering his eyelashes.

"Yeah, okay, Princess." Rose snorted.

That was the final straw before everyone fell into fits of laughter excluding Em who carried on eating with a pout on his face. The sight of him made me laugh harder until tears were falling and my stomach was hurting.

Finally the laughter seized after ten minutes and we lapsed into a conversation about wedding dresses.

"Oh we're going to a club tomorrow to celebrate. Everyone has to be there. Including you..." Alice opened her mouth for the other word to come out but Jasper finished off for her.

"Bella and no excuses!"

"You know you both are disgusting sweet. Finishing off each other's sentences like that." Em boomed.

I had to agree with him although it did show the deep connection between the couple. My heart burst for my sister I was so happy for her.

Esme and Rose went to collect the pizzas from the humongous oven in Esme's kitchen. We left them in there so they wouldn't get cold while everyone enjoyed the garlic bread and salad.

Next to me Edward's phone vibrated once alerted a message, he discreetly took out his phone. I caught a glimpse at the first letter of the sender 'K'. The happiness I felt a few moments ago completely disappeared. My hands were clenched fists under the table and were shaking as I tried to contain the hurt I was feeling.

During the rest of the meal Edward continued to send and receive texts. The rest of the family carried on as normal not noticing mine or Edward's lack of interest in the conversation.

Finally Jasper announced that he and Alice would be leaving soon as he wanted to 'celebrate' in private with his future wife.

This caused the rest of the family to get up and clear the kitchen and the table. Of course Alice tried to help but Esme shooed her off with containers filled with left overs after stating that the 'celebrating' would probably last to the early hours of the morning and most of tomorrow so both Alice and Jasper would be too beat to cook.

As usual Rose cringed at the idea of her mother being so calm about her son having sex as Alice blushed and I laughed. Although her comment did make me shudder as I was left an image of Ali and Jazz at it. Erughh! Disgusting!

After everything was cleared up and cleaned Em and Rose decided to leave.

This left Edward and I with his parents as Edward wanted to speak to his father about an upcoming business deal he was unsure about taking.

"Come on Bella, let's leave the boys to what they do best. I've got something to show you." Esme ushered me out of the living room into her huge walk in wardrobe.

Esme went straight to the side where her jewellery hung. There was a safe attached to the wall Esme quickly put the code in and pulled out a box. She opened the box and turned it to show me.

Inside lay a delicate yet extravagant diamond necklace. Every inch of the design was perfect and the soft curves of the Cullen symbol let me know it was definitely Esme's design. Esme didn't have to tell me who it was for I already knew.

"Alice will love it." I said in awe. The necklace definitely screamed Alice.

"I figured it could be the something new she wears on her wedding day. I know she doesn't have family so..." She trailed off. " I wanted to show you first, you know in case she might not like it."

"Esme don't worry." I reassured. "Alice will definitely love the necklace. It's something she would wear for sure. It's amazing."

Esme let an audible breathe out at my praise.

Carlisle came barrelling into the cupboard at the same moment. "Esme, are you done? Our son is getting slightly impatient to go home."

"Oh of course. We'll be down in a second."

Esme quickly put away the necklace following me downstairs. As Carlisle had said Edward was impatiently walking from one side of the hallway to the other until her heard us coming down the stairs.

Esme quickly scurried off to Edward and held both his cheeks in her hand. "Oh my impatient, impatient, son what are we going to do with you? Could you not wait to take your wife home?" She giggled and pinched his cheeks.

Edward gave a smile in return before planting a kiss on his mother's cheek. "You know me Maa. Anyway we better be going."

After a quick goodbye we left in Edward's Audi in complete silence.
