Hey sorry it took so long for this chapter but i needed my "editor" to take a look at it.
Let me know how it is!!
Official
I knew Charlie wasn't happy with us, I was kind of worried about later this evening when I came back alone to sleep and everything. (even though I really wouldn't be alone) I was mostly worried that he would try to convince me not to marry Edward. 'Try not to think about it' I told myself over and over again.
Edward and I told Charlie I'd be home in a little while, that we were going to tell Esme and Carlisle (even though they probably already know, thanks to Alice.)
Charlie saw us out and shut the door behind us. We walked up to the truck, Edward put his hands on my hips before opening my door. He kissed me very passionately before speaking.
"Did you really mean that? I mean about really wanting this?" He asked already knowing it was true, due to the fact I cant lie.
"Psh, no! I'm just in it for the new car," I teased.
He smiled my favorite crooked smile. "Oh, so you do want a new car?"
I rolled my eyes, "Of course," I said sarcastically. We got in the truck (he insisted on driving) and drove to his house, of course when we got up to the house Alice was jumping up and down in front of the door. Edward opened my door and pulled me out.
Alice was jabbering about the wedding, I tried not to listen, but every once in a while I'd hear her say something crazy she was planning.
"Ugh!! Please PLEASE, no doves!!!" I whined.
"Why not?? Its very classy," she agued.
"Well maybe I don't want classy! I want small and quiet," I complained.
"But ---," she started to say, but Edward cut her off quickly.
"If Bella doesn't want the damn doves, than no doves," he said very sternly. "After all it is her wedding," he said this with a smug smile, and thankfully it worked. Alice had given up for now.
When we finally got inside Esme was standing right inside the doorway. She gave me the biggest hug I've ever had! She whispered in my ear,
"We're so happy you'll officially be a part of our family."
Tears flooded my eyes, I couldn't respond. It meant so much to know that at least some people were happy for Edward and I. (unlike Charlie)
We talked to Edwards family for the rest of the night. They all thought Charlie's thinking I was pregnant was hilarious, especially Emmett of course. At about 10:30 I said goodnight to everyone and Edward took me home (even though we had my truck.)
"I'll see you upstairs," Edward promised as I was getting out. I just smiled, still worried about Charlie and slid out of the seat. "And Bella?" I turned to look at him, "everything's going to be fine," he smiled a very soft sweet smile, which I returned, trying to make mine match his.
I shut the trucks door and walked up to the house, I took one deep breath before walking in. Charlie was sitting there on the arm of the couch.
"Hey sweetie," he said when I walked in.
"Hey Dad." "Did you talk to Edwards Family?" "Yeah, everyone is super excited. Esme and Alice especially," I said very matter-of-factly.
Charlie stood up walked over and hugged me and said: "So am I Bella... so am I." "Thanks Dad," I whispered, tears streaming down again.

The next morning, after Charlie went to work, Edward and I went downstairs. I popped a couple of pop tarts in the toaster and went to the phone and dialed Renee's number. Edward put my pop tarts on a plate for me and set them on the table and sat down and pulled me onto his lap, I snuggled into his chest.
Finally someone answered the phone.
"Hello?" The voice on the other end said.
"Hi Phil, is my mom there?" "Oh yeah Bella, just a second," Phil said.
"Hey Bella! How are you sweetheart?" Renee asked.
"Oh I'm good. But hey I got some really good news!" I said very ecstatically.
Renee gasped, "OH! Are you moving here to Florida??" The excitement in her voice was what I was hoping to hear -just not about moving to Florida.
I laughed, "No. But its just as important!" "Oh," she sounded slightly disappointed, but jumped back to excited. "What is it??" "Well, Edward and I are---," she cut me off.
"OH MY GOSH!!! Phil come here! This is so exciting! I'm so happy for you two! Yeah Bella's engaged! Yeah... Of course to Edward, who else?" She was practically screeching, she was so happy! Which was very comforting.
A few weeks later...(Saturday)
I woke up to Edward kissing my forehead, quite a nice way to wake up actually.
"Mmm..." I murmured groggily.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to wake you," he said very quietly.
"It's no big deal," I said thru a yawn. He chuckled, "Charlie's downstairs fixing you breakfast. I think I'll go home and get cleaned up okay?" "Sure. You're coming back with Alice at noon, right?" I asked while stretching.
"Yeah, I'll be here," he leaned over and kissed my forehead. "I'll see you in a little bit." He kissed me again, on the lips this time.
"Bye, love ya!" I whispered as he pulled away.
"Love you too. Bye," and he was gone.
I went downstairs to eat with Charlie, he hadn't waited for me, he was there in his chair at the table.
"G'morning!" Charlie said.
"Yeah, right back at ya," I said with a wink, he chuckled.
I went to the stove and dished out some eggs and sausage and when I turned around I noticed the clock on the microwave, it was already 10:37! Edward and Alice would be here soon! --We made plans to get together with Alice to go over decorations. It was my idea, I didn't want her to go too overboard.
I hurried and ate so I could take a shower and get cleaned up.
"You remembered that Edward and Alice are coming over to go over wedding stuff, right?" "Oh... Yeah, of course," Charlie said -not very convincingly.
"Okay. Well I'm going to go take a shower n'stuff," as soon as I got up the phone rang, I answered. Charlie got up and took my plate from me (since I was sort of occupied.)
"Hello?" I said.
"Bella?" The voice on the other end said. It was Billy Black.
"Hey Billy, let me get Charlie for you." "Well, actually I needed to talk to you," he said. He sounded a little worried.
"Oh! Okay what's up?" "Well, first congrats on your big day," he said.
"Aw, thanks Billy," I said, really wanting him to get to the point.
"Okay well, the reason I'm calling is... I was... Well three days ago Jacob left and I thought he went out with his buddies but... Its been three days. So I was just wondering if you'd seen him or he came to see you or something?" He truly sounded worried sick. "Oh no that's awful! But no, I haven't seen Jake in a long time." Oh no, I thought where would he be? And why didn't he tell Billy? He always tells Billy everything.
"Alright, thank you Bella. If you see him let me know." "Of course. Goodbye Billy," but he had already hung up.
I told Charlie what was going on, he was worried too.
I went up stairs and took a shower and got dressed all the while thinking of Jacob. Ugh! Why... where... UGH!! Just as I had finished brushing my teeth there was a knock at the door.
"DOOR BELLA!" Charlie called.
"Coming!" I yelled back, skipping down the stairs.
I skipped to the front door and opened it.
"Hey sweet----," I started to say but froze in shock.
"Hey Bella. I need to talk to you." "JACOB???"
