Jacob
I looked into the mirror at the stranger before me. I don't think that I've ever worn a suit in my life. It was uncomfortable and I hated it, but for Bella I would do just about anything. Scratch that, I would do anything. I adjusted the tie, and took a deep breath. This was really happening, and despite the dark cloud of the Volturi that hung over our heads, our happiness was finally just around the bend.
"Wow, I'm impressed." Edwards velvet voice said as he entered my bedroom.
I turned to face him, with a half grin. "I think Bella would have preferred my jeans and t-shirt, but Alice wasn't having that."
"She can be rather persuasive."
"Yeah." I laughed.
Edward walked closer to me. "Are you sure that you wouldn't want Sam or Embry to be your best man?"
"What? You don't want the honors?"
He smiled. "No, it's not that. I just thought, since you guys were close."
"Edward, I didn't ask you because of Bella… I asked you because I wanted too. We have really been through a lot together, and I would like to think were friends now."
He shook his head. "We're more than friends, Jacob. We're brothers." He pulled me in for a hug. "And it's my honor to be your best man."
Alice entered coughing suggestively. "Would you guys like some privacy?" She asked.
"Funny." Edward laughed.
"It's time."
Edward patted me on the shoulder. "Let's go man."
The beach was perfect. They were rolls of white chairs, with ribbons and red roses. The rolls of chairs was divided by a red carpet that lead all the way down to a white gazebo, with red roses and strands of lights. In the near distance was an orchestra playing soft music. Alice had managed to pull off a wedding that takes some people years of planning, in just a matter of hours.
Billy sat in the front row, all the wolf pack were dressed in the finest attire, and stood behind Edward at the gazebo. Everyone that I knew growing up on the reservation was there. All of Bella's friends from school sat across from them. I don't think the smile on my face could have gotten bigger.
Emily made her way down the aisle in the long red dress, after her was Rosalie, then Alice. The music changed to the wedding march, everyone stood to their feet, and she appeared. Her hair was pulled back with roses, her dress was straight, and flowed down to the ground. She was the most breath taking person I had ever seen in my life. Charlie escorted her down the red carpet. When she called him to tell him the news, he didn't even try to put up a fight. He didn't ask that we wait for Renee. I suppose he knew how hard it was for her while I was gone, and he wasn't going to stand in her way.
Bella
I would be lying if I said there wasn't butterflies in my stomach. It wasn't because of getting married. I was afraid that I would trip and fall and the whole world would see it. I was afraid that I wasn't good enough for Jacob.
"Jacob…" I whispered when I saw him standing there.
The sun had begun to set behind him, he glowed in the essence of it. I smiled. How could I not have smiled. I slowly walked towards my sun. The path way seemed too long to where he stood. Finally Charlie placed my hands in Jacob's, he whispered something in his ear, turn to kiss my cheek, then he took his seat next to Sue Clearwater.
We had a short wedding. We both decided to share our thoughts to one another instead of having vows read. When the preacher said 'I now pronounce you, man and wife.' The entire wolf pack hooted and hollered. Emily prepared a lovely meal, and made the wedding cake herself. We all made our way back to her place, since it wasn't too far from the beach.
Alice had had a hand with the decorations there too. She had sat up a tent were the food was kept, and there was a dance floor right next to it that was accompanied with it's on d.j.. Everything was beautiful.
I felt this warmth burning inside of me. This warmth that slowly raced through out my veins. It was a warmth of happiness and joy. A feeling I never wanted to lose. Jacob pulled me close to him as we walked through the crowd of people that awaited us.
"I love you." He whispered.
"I love you too." I reached up to kiss him.
"Bella, Jacob,…" Carlisle said as he Esme approached us.
"We have a present for the two of you." Esme said.
"You guys didn't have to do that."
They handed us an envelope. Jacob opened it to find a key. He looked at it confused.
"It's not much. It's a house down the road from Billy's. We talked to some of the elders and they said they wanted you to have it." Carlisle grinned.
"Rosalie and I furnished it and added some nice romantic touches." Esme added.
"You need a little privacy on your wedding night. Since we're all at Billy's."
I hugged them both. "Thanks so much."
"Don't worry, Jacob. It's a gift." Edward said walking up from behind us, his arms wrapped around Leah's waist. "If we need you, your right down the road."
Jacob was speechless for the first time in his life. We were all one happy family now. None as happy as me. I had found what true love felt like and I was loving every minute of it.
