Chapter 2, Home at Last
When I woke up things were a little fuzzy and then memories started coming back to me the fight with Charlie, my e-mail to Renee, and me moving out. I couldn't believe I had done it I was happy but at the same time scared out of my mind until I saw him, the love of my existence.
Edward was lying right beside me propped up on one elbow looking deep into my eyes.
"Tell me love what were your dreams last night you were talking almost all night?"
"I don't remember," I said cautiously, "what exactly did I say?"
"You're worried about Charlie and Renee, our wedding, and as always you said how much you loved me."
"Oh okay then." I said before I got up to get ready for my day. "Can I have a quick human moment?"
"But of course I'll be right outside my… well I guess now our door."
I showered and dressed as quickly as possible but while I was in the middle of putting on my clothes my mind wandered quickly back to Jake when I last saw him, the look on his face still haunted me, but I had to let go, he was going to be fine, and I, I was going to be more than fine, I was going to be great. I was in but a few months getting married to the love of my existence and would soon after have all my demands met, that was going to be the best part I thought.
When I walked out of Edward's room he quickly enveloped me in a tight hug and buried his face in my hair. He started to kiss me softly on the lips, and then Alice walked down the hall with a look that said she was determined.
"Bella I need to know do you want an outside wedding or an inside wedding, civil or religious ceremony, where do you want the reception, who is going to be your bridesmaids?"
My head was spinning from all her questions so I quickly answered,"Alice you know me better than anyone so I think you can handle the wedding details, and as for my bridesmaids I think they should be Angela, Rosalie, and Esme with you as already established as my maid of honor."
"Right I agree, Bella I know you hate parties but if this wedding is yours I think you should come with me today so you can at least help pick some of the details." Her eyes sold me they were so sincere.
"Okay yes I'll come with you what time do you want to leave?"
"Right now if that's alright, we'll take my Porsche so that we can get there faster, oh and sorry Edward you can't come girls only."
"Alright," I said, Edward looked really relieved he didn't have to come on our shopping trip.
"Have fun ladies, I love you Bella, and Alice make sure Bella is safe."
Before I knew it I was out the door and in Alice's Porsche and we were off to shopping.
The rest of the day past in a blur of credit cards, place settings, and calligraphy. Finally it was over and Alice announced she would take care of everything else and that I should sit back and relax for the coming three months until my wedding, and for the next three months I did just that.
