Bella's POV:

"OH MY GOSH!" Alice was hyperventilating from the proposal she just received from Jasper. Rosalie too was just as excited with hers.

"I'm going to die!" Rosalie flung herself on her bed.

This morning two unexpected surprises occurred. But I just didn't know why Edward wouldn't propose to me. Then it hit me. He doesn't love me enough… When the reporters asked Edward about him and I he froze. But everything has been so great. The things he says and does…

"Bella? What's wrong?"

I guess I let my emotions get a hold of me because I looked in them mirror to see an unusually flushed Bella. My cheeks constantly had some pink in them, but not now.

"Bella! Are you okay?" Alice yelled shaking me out of my trance.

"Uh…yeah. I'm fine."

"No you're not." Rosalie said walking over to me.

I tried shaking the sick feeling I had in the pit of my stomach.

"No guys really, I'm just shocked!" I mustered up as much enthusiasm as I could. "You guys are getting married!"

"I know!" They squealed.

"Isn't this--WAIT!" Alice panicked. "We're 18 and getting married?! No! We can't!" Alice was now in hysterics.

"Alice, we have nothing to lose. Seriously, we have no family, nothing. Let's just go for it. I mean we were going to move there anyway." Rosalie cheered excitedly.

"Yeah! Let's do it! This is going to be ama--HOLD IT!"

"Now what Alice?" Rosalie asked annoyed.

"Bella…Edward…he didn't…propose?" Her voice was barely at a whisper.

Rosalie's eyes opened as wide as they could realizing the news.

"He didn't…" Rosalie too was at a loss for words.

I tried not to seem upset but as I shook my head no the tears began to fall.

"Nope. He didn't." The words came out of my mouth in between sobs.

"I can't believe he wouldn't…" Alice said running over to my side. "That's why you're so upset."

I shook my head yes and let the tears fall.

Edward's POV:

"EDWARD ANTHONY CULLEN I WANT AN EXPLANATION AND I WANT IT NOW!"

O crap. Alice is probably angry at me for not proposing to Bella. Crap. She's going to kill me before I even have the chance to.

Alice came storming into my room with Rosalie at her heels. She took both of her hands and grabbed the collar of my shirt and threw me to the floor. For being such a tiny person she was very strong.

"I SWEAR CULLEN IF YOU DON'T START TALKING I'M GOING TO HURT YOU!"

"Chill Alice! If you let go of my throat I'll talk!"

Emmett and Jasper came running through the doors as she let go of me.

"Oh sorry bro, they said they wanted to see us but when we got close they took off!" Emmett was out of breath as he tried explaining why Rosalie and Alice were in my room giving me death threats.

"It's ok. Alright Alice what do you want me to talk about?"

"Shut up Cullen and stop playing stupid. Cause you aren't …well actually you might be, so spill." Her voice was hard and cold.

"Is this about Bella?"

"Duh." Rosalie spat at me.

"Okay, I didn't want Bella to find out that I was going to propose to her in front of the press conference so I had Emmett and Jasper stall--"

"STALL?! STALL?! YOU MEAN THEM PROPOSING WAS FAKE?!" Rosalie was fuming.

"Whoa chill baby, it wasn't fake. Not expected, but not fake." Emmett said pulling her into a hug.

"Yeah, we meant it." Jasper added looking at Alice.

"Oh. Okay. Continue." Alice said back to being happy and yet terribly angry at me.

"Well. It's just that I wanted to propose to Bella back in England, and I wanted it to be surprise. So if you could not mention you know anything, and not talk about wedding plans in front of her that would be greatly appreciated."

"Oh Edward! I knew you weren't a moron!" Alice cheerfully sang as she grabbed Rosalie's hand. "We better get back to Bella, we said we went to the store! Bye boys!" and they were gone.

"Hey! They left!" Emmett pouted.

Jasper and I just rolled our eyes.

Bella's POV:

Edward's been ignoring me as much as possible lately, but in a I'm-nervous-about-something way instead of I'm-going-to-dump-Bella way. I want to know what is going on. My sisters never talk about their weddings. The boys are always around, except Edward. Well not this week, they had to go back to England for something. Plus every time I mention I think there's something going on, everyone avoids it. Whatever, I'll just forget about it. Edward is probably just doing some prince stuff, ha prince stuff. That just sounds funny. Whatever, I'm graduating tomorrow and moving to England Saturday.

Whoa. I'm actually moving to another country. Should we visit Billy and Jacob to say goodbye? Ha, maybe even say hi to Tanya. It would probably be good to see Tanya behind bars in an orange jump suite.

"Bella!" I heard Alice call me from inside her closet.

"Yeah?" I called back.

"Are you packed all the way? The movers coming to get our things soon."

"Yeah, almost."

"Hurry!"

"Okay Alice! Chill!"

Alice came out of her closet wagging a finger at me.

"Listen Bella, I know you're worried, but stop. Everything's going to be great! Trust me I know these things." She stood up on her tip toes and kissed my cheek but I was still upset.

The door opened and Rosalie came in.

"Girls, I think we should go spend some time with Mrs. Marie."

Alice and I glanced at each other.

"Oh! Mrs. Marie, we've hardly even been around her these last couple of months." I said sadly.

"I know, it's just been so hectic!" Alice said.

"It's okay, she understands. We just need to thank her for everything over the years and say goodbye."

"Yeah that's a good idea Rose, when?"

Alice jumped up with excitement. "We could take her out after our graduation tomorrow!"

"Yeah! Good idea Alice!" I said smiling.

"Okay cool, I'll ask her." Rosalie picked up her phone and dialed the number.

"Hi Mrs. Marie, we were just wondering if you would go out with us tomorrow night?"

"Okay great! Uh…graduation is at 6, so maybe at 8:30?"

"Oh you choose, we don't care."

She put her hand over the mouth piece of the phone, "How does Italian sound?"

"That's fine." Alice and I answered.

"Yeah that's good. Okay see you there. Bye."

"Isn't this exciting?! We are going to graduate on Friday, and move to England the next morning!"

"Alice, you get excited about anything." I still wasn't in the best mood about leaving anymore, especially since I didn't know what was going on between me and Edward.

"Don't be so grouchy Bella." Rosalie said.

"Yeah, and I didn't I just tell you to stop worrying! I thought you were okay with everything, you seemed alright just a couple of minutes ago." Alice said annoyed.

"Sorry." I muttered.

"Wait, so the boys are going to be back here for graduation, right?"

"I think so Alice."

"Who cares." I mumbled.

Rosalie and Alice gave each other worried glances.

"Bella! Don't say that!"

"I'm sorry Rose it's just that… I don't think I want to move to England anymore. I don't think Edward wants me anymore."

"Bella stop that! Edward loves you. He's probably just waiting for the right time." Rosalie said nervously.

Alice starred at me. "Bella. What did I just get through saying?! Everything will work out! I'm sure of it! Don't be so moody! "

Sure, whatever. Well I'm not going to sit around waiting forever.

I woke up the next morning to Alice and Rosalie singing out of pitch with their music they were blasting in the bathroom while they got ready.

"Come on Bella! Get up we're graduating today!!"

I moaned and dug my head under my pillow. Why is Alice so cheerful in the mornings.

"Guys, what time is it?"

"9:30."

"Why are you guys getting ready if graduation isn't until 6?"

"Because silly! We have things to do! Parties to attend! Just get out of bed!"

"What parties Alice?"

"Okay, maybe no parties but the movers are coming to get the rest of our things this morning, and the guys will be here soon!"

The thought of seeing Edward soon was the only thing that made me crawl out of bed.

Most of our clothes and things were packed but my sisters made sure to leave behind special graduation day clothes for us to wear. Knowing I would lose the argument of them dressing me up I went along with it without one complaint.

I heard a knock at the door and my stomach did flips knowing it was Edward.

"I'll get it!" I ran over and threw the door open.

"Ah, good morning Ms. Swan."

Dang. It was just the movers coming to get the rest of our things.

"Oh hey, our suitcases are over in the corner. Thanks."

"Hey hey girls!"

"Emmett!" Rosalie ran over and looped her arms around his neck and planted a big kiss on his lips as he was walking through the doorway.

Jasper came in behind Emmett and walked straight over to Alice to give her a hug and a kiss.

But I didn't see Edward anywhere, "Hey guys, where's Edward?" I was very anxious to see him since he's been out of town a lot lately.

Emmett and Jasper looked at each other wondering which one was going to talk.

"Uh, Bella…he told us to tell you he can't make it and he'll call you later. We're sorry."

My happiness went straight down the drain. "He's going to miss graduation?!" I yelled angrily. "Why isn't he ever around anymore?!" I felt the tears come to my eyes but I wouldn't let them come out. Jasper put an arm around my shoulder and I suddenly felt a little more calm.

"Bella it's just that he's been working a lot lately." He said soothingly.

"I know, I know." I said quietly to myself.

Alice tried cheering up the mood. "Come on guys! Let's go say goodbye to everyone we hate and then laugh!"

I giggled at her suggestion. "Like who?"

"Oh! We could go to the jail. I wouldn't mind to see our arch enemies rotting behind bars." Emmett grinned.

"You do realize they won't be in there forever." Rosalie said bursting Emmett's happy bubble.

"Yeah but they're in there now so let's do it!" Alice cheered. "Last one to the car has to kiss Mike Newton!"

And with that Emmett and Jasper flew out of the room with us right behind them. On the way down to the car Alice was able to catch up with Jasper and hop on his back causing him to get behind.

"Hee-hee, gotcha." She giggled in his ear.

"Yeah and if we don't hurry we'll both be kissing him!"

"THEN RUN!" She screamed frantically kicking him like he was a race horse.

While Rosalie and Alice seem to be fighting with Jasper and Emmett all the way down I was able to reach the car first. Phew, safe. Right behind me was Rosalie, then Alice, who was attached to Jasper, and finally the loser…Emmett.

"HA! Emmett has to kiss Mike!" I chanted happily.

His face turned into a scowl as he looked to Rose for some help.

"Sorry Em, you lost." Then she smirked an evil smile and we all started laughing.

"It was you're fault! You totally distracted me!" He said trying to defend himself.

"Don't be a sore loser bro." Jasper said in between laughs. "We can't help it you're slow and easily distracted."

Emmett gave one last snarl and ordered everyone into the car.

The county jail was just a few miles from Cushing so it only took a few minutes to get there. It was kind of like the ones you see on small town shows like Andy Griffith. We piled out of the car and headed in. Sitting at he desk was old Mr. Mayborn. He had been sheriff here for who knows how long. He was partners with my dad when we were little.

"Hey there kids, how's it going?" He said sitting up from his resting position in his chair.

"Hi Mr. Mayborn. Well my sisters and I just wanted to say good bye to our uncle and cousin before we move tomorrow." Alice said in the most convincingly sweet way.

Rosalie and I nodded our heads in agreement.

"Why sure thing. Yep, I did hear something about you guys marrying the princes of England, and they must be you young fellows." He stood up from the chair and walked over to Emmett and Jasper. "It's a mighty fine pleasure to meet you boys."

"You too sir." They replied shaking his hand one at a time.

"Well just follow me down here to their cell. I bet they'll enjoy this company, they haven't gotten any at all. None of them. But actually one of them is leaving. Tanya I think it is. Yeah I'm pretty sure it's her. Some relative from Wales or something are bailing her out next week."

All five of us stopped dead in our tracks. We looked at each other knowing what each one of us were thinking but then kept following Mr. Mayborn down to the cells.

As we approached them they sat up with excited expressions.

"Here you go kids, I'll just leave you alone to say your goodbyes."

"Oh! Are we getting out early?!" Jessica asked happily.

Rosalie just laughed. "Nope."

They all were sharing one cell, and it looked quite crowded.

"Hey, where are your guys' ugly orange suites?" Alice asked disappointed.

"Sorry to disappoint you sweet thing, but we don't have to wear them." Tanya snapped back at her.

"What do you want." Billy asked angrily.

"Oh well we are moving to England tomorrow and they are getting married so we just wanted to stop by and say our far wells to you." I said smugly.

To our surprise none of them seemed surprised that Rosalie and Alice were getting married and we were moving away.

Jacob walked over closer to the bars. "Whatever. Bye. Okay it's over, just leave."

"Fine. Our pleasure." Emmett answered.

We gave them one last grin and headed off.

"See you around." Tanya said with a wicked smile.

Once again we stopped walking and turned around. "What?" Jasper asked, his tone becoming angry.

"Oh well since I'm royalty too I don't have to stick around for my sentence so I will be coming home soon. Also, since the King and Queen love me so much, I know I'll be welcomed at the palace."

"I doubt that." Emmett laughed.

"Let's just go." I said. "There's no point in being here."

We headed back out again when Alice stopped us. "Wait! I didn't get to do what I wanted to!"

We looked at her confused.

She ran up and grabbed Mr. Mayborn and hurried him down to the cell. She whispered something in his ear and he unlocked the door pulling Mike out chuckling.

"Huh?" Mike was just as confused as we were. But then it hit us.

"Go ahead Emmett." Jasper said trying to hold back the laughter.

Emmett glared at us with hate filled eyes. He looked back at Mike and then hesitated before he walked up to him, grabbed his face and then planted a huge kiss right on his fore head.

We all busted out laughing and Mike ran back into the cell to hide. "GROSS! YOU SICKO!" He yelled back.

"Okay. Let's go." Alice said happily.

"But he didn't even kiss him right! He did it on his head!" Jasper complained.

"You never specified where." Emmett said grinning.

"Isabella Swan."

I walked across the stage as steady as I could to grab my diploma without falling. The robes were ridiculously long so I had to be extra careful. I approached Mr. Pierce and Mr. Niles who were still in charge of the school. They smiled and put their hands out for me to shake them before I grabbed my diploma.

As soon as it hit my hands I realized it was my ticket of freedom. No longer was I tied down to this school, or even this life in any way. Hopefully I had a new amazing life waiting for me across seas.

"Rosalie Swan."

I walked steadily off the stage and went back to my seat to squeal with Alice.

"Yes! We did it! It's over!" She screamed excitedly.

"I know!" I jumped up and down and hugged her.

Rosalie soon joined us in our happy fest for a minute or too and then we sat back down to listen to the rest of the names being called.

"Congratulations class of 2008!" Mr. Pierce said through the microphone and the place went crazy.

Everyone threw off their hats and shouted and hugged each other. Emmett and Jasper came over and celebrated along with Rosalie, Alice and I. The boys led us out of the auditorium and into the courtyard in the back of the school. Emmett and Jasper grabbed a hold of Rosalie and Alice with solemn looks on their faces.

"What's wrong?" Alice asked worried.

They just stood there for a second and then answered, "Nothing." and smiled.

They both got down on one knee facing their girlfriends and pulled something out from their pockets.

"Rosalie, will you marry me?" Emmett opened a red velvet jewelry box.

Rosalie's eyes bulged out when she saw the ring. "Oh Emmett! Of course!"

He pulled it out and gently placed it on her finger. It had a gold band with three diamonds with the center one being the biggest.

"Alice, you're the love of my life…marry me?" Jasper then pulled out a black velvet case similar to the one Emmett had and opened to reveal yet another stunning diamond. Hers was a silver band with small diamond along it with a big one right in the middle. It sparkled as the sun hit it.

Alice was completely speechless…for about two seconds and then she squealed. "DUH!" He laughed and carefully placed the ring on her finger.

My sisters were in heaven. Just in the past week they had been proposed to twice. It was so nice to see them so happy and in love. I hugged them all and told them how exciting this was and that they needed to start planning soon.

I left the lovebirds alone for a while and decided to head back up to my room to get ready for our dinner with Mrs. Marie. When I walked in the room I headed straight to my phone to check for any new messages or missed calls. There was a new text from Edward.

I miss you.

I was angry with him for not contacting me and telling me what was going on, but I couldn't help but forgive him just from reading the text, which I did multiple times. I held the necklace he had given me a while ago in my fingers which I wore everyday. Just as I was about to text him back Rosalie and Alice came through the door smiling from ear to ear. "Hey guys."

"Hey Bella, ready for dinner?"

"Yep, just one sec Rose."

I walked to the bathroom to clean up a little by brushing my teeth and combing out my hair a little.

"Okay, I'm ready."

We arrived at Mini Italy about 10 minutes later getting there just a little bit early. But as we walked in we saw Mrs. Marie waiting for us at a table for four.

"Hi ladies, how are you?" She asked sweetly as always.

"Hi. We're good, just getting ready to travel." Rosalie answered as we took our seats.

Mrs. Marie glanced down at their hands and smiled brightly. "Oh my, look at those rings!"

They showed her the rings and told her how they had just received them after the graduation service.

"That's wonderful girls, I'm so glad you found guys you love so deeply. Bella…how are you and Edward?"

How do I explain this if I don't even know…

"Good." I tried sounding happy.

Alice picked up the distress in my tone and took over. "Yeah he's just been working a lot so they haven't had that 'quality time' together lately, but they're in love."

"Oh I have no doubt in my mind they don't love each other, I can see it in their eyes…especially when they are around each other."

I felt myself blush because I knew what she was talking about.

"So are you ready to leave?" She asked changing the subject.

"If you mean packed up then yes…if you mean emotionally, then yes and no." Rosalie said .

"Yeah, it's exciting and we want to go, but it's also scary." I added.

"Never be afraid to live." She told us. "It will be a great adventure for you girls. You of all people deserve to have some happiness in your life."

The rest of the dinner we talked on and on about what England was like, what was going to happen, what she was going to do and countless other things. By the time we realized it 3 hours and passed and it was time we got back home to bed. We had an early flight in the morning.

We said our goodbyes which were hard to say. I felt my goodbye lodged in my throat and the tears once again fill my eyes.

"Thanks for everything."

Mrs. Marie pulled us into a hug and said, "Keep in touch girls, and be safe and have fun."

We pulled away and said goodbye.

"Wow. That was harder than I thought." Rosalie said.

I had hard time falling asleep last night. I was too busy thinking about Edward, Mrs. Marie and our new trip tomorrow. I was starting to feel nervous and anxious. But as the clocked ticked away I slowly drifted off to sleep.

I woke up to see the sun shining through my windows. I pulled my arms out from under the covers and stretched. My left arm hit something, or more like someone next to me. I quickly turned my head to see Edward laying down next to me. Butterflies filled my stomach as he spoke.

"Good morning beautiful." His voice was sexy and British and I had missed listening to it.

I felt my cheeks slightly blush as I completely sat up in bed and wrapped my arms around his neck falling down on top of him.

"I missed you Edward."

He chuckled and kissed me softly. "You have no idea how much I missed you. And I just want to apologize for not being around lately, I promise everything will be back to normal soon." He smiled his heart stopping dazzling smile I hadn't seen for a while and I kissed him again.

"You're forgiven."

He finally broke away and helped me from the bed. "You ready to go? Everyone else is waiting for us downstairs."

"What?! They're waiting for us and you didn't wake me sooner?!"

"I couldn't wake you…you were too peaceful and adorable looking. So I just let you sleep a little longer." He swept me up into a hug and I fainted at his touch.

"I'll be waiting downstairs for you while you get ready." He said.

Panic hit me as I realized I didn't want him to leave. "No stay up here with me!"

He smiled. "Whatever you want."

A/N: I hoped you liked it! I'm sorry for not having Edward propose in this one..i PROMISE the next one, but i had to put something up tonight because i havn't posted in a while. But i know how Edward will propose and it will be up soon!! I PROMISE!! Please review!! thanks :D
