Hey guys! Sorry that I didn't post for a while. But thanks for the fantastic reviews! And I just wanted to tell you that it will VERY soon be Edward and Bella. Mmkkkayy? ENJOY…
Is That Really You?
Chapter 15
"Jasper. Yes. Yes. YES!" I sobbed, flinging myself into his arms. Jasper slid the ring onto my hand, and pulled me into a kiss.
The restaurant exploded in applause. Everyone except Tyler. I didn't care. I was Alice Cullen. I was Jasper Cullen's wife. Forever. Today was the best day of my life. Now I knew why I was so happy today.
Alice's POV
"Bella. Really. Should the color theme be purple and yellow or blue and yellow?" I asked, holding up the two different swatches. Bella and I were at the party planning store, looking through the different colors. I had a party planner, but I thought it would be more fun to plan it myself. So here we are.
"Umm…" Bella started, looking over my shoulder at the salesman who was checking us out, "Blue and yellow. I just like blue more then purple." Bella finally said.
"Thank you." I sighed, looking over my list.
"So, since around 250 people are coming, and there will be 5 people at a table, we need 50 tables and pots of flowers. We need 250 placemats, but including Jasper and I, we need another table just for us, with two placemats and a pot of flowers. So how about dark brown wood tables, with midnight blue placemats, and yellow tulips?" I said quickly, looking at Bella. She nodded confused. She must not have heard any of it. I sighed, and started over to my party planner's office. He owned this place, and was always here.
"George?" I said, sticking my head around his door.
"Yes? Oh it's you Alice! How are you?" George giggled, jumping up from his chair and running over to me. He kissed my two cheeks, and I smelled his lavender perfume. Yes. Lavender perfume. Did I tell you he was gay? George was wearing too tight skinny jeans, and his purple polo was also too tight. I looked down at his feet and he was wearing cowboy boots. I smiled to myself.
"I'm fantastic! And you? I just wanted to tell you everything I needed." I said, running my hand through my hair.
"Ah! Yes! I'm great, dear! Let me see! Give!" George squealed, holding out his hands. I handed him everything, and his face turned serious. It always did when he was working.
"Hmm…" George started. I started to get a little nervous, and I looked around his office.
"Well… Alice…" I was really nervous by then.
"I LOVE IT!" He screeched, putting everything down on his desk.
"It's like something I would design!" George giggled again, patting my head.
I felt my lips spread into a huge smile.
"Thanks George!" I said, jumping up and down.
He laughed, "I'll get all this ready for your big day! Where is it again, so I can set up?"
"Hold on." I said, retching into my bag for the paper.
"Umm… Well the service is at this church on 5th Avenue," I started, as George smiled. He knew how much I liked huge things. "And the party is in Central Park. We rented a lawn." I said, handing George the addresses.
"Well, darling, I'll see you soon!" George said, giving me another two kisses on my cheeks. I started out of the office, waving at George.
"Bella?" I called out, not seeing her where I left her.
"Right here." I Bella say softly. I turned around to see Bella standing next to the fabrics, crying.
"Oh Bella." I said, pulling her into a hug. "What's wrong?" I asked, as Bella sobbed into my shoulder.
Bella let go of me, and pointed to a sign above my head. It was Edward. Oh, yeah. Edward does the photographs for this store.
"Oh Bella-" I started.
"It's fine. Let's just go." Bella cut in, starting for the door.
"Wait, Bella. On the day before the wedding all the stuff is gonna be set up for the party. Could you help? I'm asking all my friends to help so I could save a little money.
Bella smiled. "Yeah. I would love to!" She said, waving at me.
"See you later!" I said, before the door closed.
I walked outside, and hailed a cab to get home.
The day before the wedding… (When they set up)
Bella's POV (OMG!)
I stood in front of my closet, looking for something to wear.
I decided on a pair of short black jean shorts, since it was the middle of summer, with a black bra and dark blue spaghetti strap tank top. I slipped on my Victoria's Secret PINK flip flops, and ambled into the bathroom. I pulled my hair into a messy ponytail, and put on a little black eyeliner and mascara. I slipped on a little lip-gloss, putting it in my black Gucci bag for touch ups later on. On my way to the door I grabbed my iPhone and wallet.
I locked my door, pressing the elevator door button. The doors slid open, and I stepped in, zooming down to the lobby. Once I got outside I hailed a cab.
Alice's POV
"Bella! You're here!" I squealed, pulling her into a hug.
"Of course I am! What should I do first?" Bella asked, pulling her black aviators off her head and sticking them in her bag. She put it down next to my bag, and started to fiddle with a piece of hair that had fallen out of my ponytail.
"Could you carry that table over there?" I asked, pointing her towards a table. "And then set it up?" I finished.
Bella nodded, and headed over. I caught Jasper's eye and winked, giving him the signal.
(A/N I was gonna stop here, and I really wanted to, but I'm too nice. I couldn't. So enjoy the rest of the story!)
Bella's POV
I effortlessly picked up one side of the table, and when I was about to lift up the other side I felt it being picked up. I looked up, to find myself looking at a very familiar face.
Edward's
POV
Jasper pointed me over to a table with a girl picking up
one end effortlessly. "Help her." He said, pushing me over.
I jogged over, and picked up one side. I looked across at the girl, no woman, who was picking up the other side. She looked up, revealing the love of my life.
Bella's POV
It was Edward. Edward Cullen. Geez, could this day get any worse? This morning I fell out of bed, spilled very hot coffee on myself, and slipped, throwing my breakfast onto my head.
I blushed, and looked back down.
"Hey Bella." Edward said softly, his voice making me look up.
"Hi Edward." I whispered, as happiness went across his face, disappearing by confusion.
He must be confused why I said hello. I confused myself. I didn't know why. Suddenly I knew. I still loved him. I looked back down blushing, and put a piece of my hair behind my hair. My arms started to tremble because I had been holding up a table for 4 minutes. I started to walk backwards, and Edward followed along. We set the table down, and I stepped back. I turned around and started heading over to Alice. Suddenly I tripped on a rock. I squeezed my eyes shut, readying myself for contact with the ground. But it never happened. Instead I felt two strong arms wrap around my stomach. I felt myself being put back on my feet and turned around. I opened my eyes to find myself face to face with Edward.
"Thanks." I whispered, making the mistake of looking into his eyes.
"Bella. Will you ever forgive me?" He asked, sorrow and love in his eyes.
I couldn't take it anymore. I still loved Edward, and being without him was destroying me. I had to get over my stupid grudge soon, or it will be too late. I decided then.
I gave a soft nod, and flung myself into his arms. I pressed my lips against his. At first Edward was surprised, but then he deepened the kiss. Our tongue's met, sending an electric current through my body. We pulled apart, and I pulled him into a hug.
"I missed you." Edward whispered into my ear. I felt his warm breath a caress my cheek. I nodded.
"I love you." I said, pulling Edward back to my lips.
We pulled apart, and embraced again.
"I love you too." Edward said, kissing me again.
(A/N YAY! Are you happy? 'cause I am!)
Alice's POV
Jasper and I stood across the lawn watching Bella and Edward talk on a bench.
"It worked." I said, giving Jasper a smile.
"Yes it did." Jasper said back, giving me a smile too.
I looked around at the set up lawn.
"It's perfect." I whispered.
Jasper nodded, giving me a chaste kiss on the lips.
"Let's go." Jasper said, taking my hand.
I looked across the lawn back at Edward and Bella, seeing Edward stand up, giving Bella his hand so he could help her up. I smiled at the scene, as Edward and Bella gave us waves, and walked out of the park.
I gave Jasper a nod, and we headed home too.
Edward and Bella's POV
Today was the best day of my life.
Did you like it! I worked hard on it! Next chapter is the wedding, something else special, and the end! :( There will definitely be a sequel, and when I am writing that I will write another story too! So, yay!
Thanks!
