A/N: And awaaaay we go! Thanks for the reviews, all! :)

The next half hour was torture. Pure, cruel torture. Alice had gone overboard, but what else is new? Granted, I looked utterly amazing, but I was not in a good mood. Edward was right in the next room, but I wasn't allowed to see him untill our supposed 'date'.

"C'mon, Alice! How much more make-up can you possibly plaster onto me?" I mean, really. I had been sitting with her a grand total of SIX HOURS. Six long, grueling hours.

"Bella! I swear that if you ask me one more time to hurry up, I'm going to make you look terrible ON PURPOSE." Ugh. She had found my weakness. I didn't want to look totally fake tonight, but I did want to look good.

"Fine. I'll stop. But don't think that I'm going to like you after-" I started. She spun me around in the chair to show me what I looked like.

"Oh." I murmured. "Alice, you're a miracle worker. I look almost as good as you guys!" I whispered thankfully, mesmerized, for the first time, by my own image.

"I know," she swhispered smugly, " Now, we have to slip this dress on you, there's only four minutes left." She said to me. Oh, god. Here comes the panic, I thought. Hearing my heart begin to pound, Alice stopped me before I got too ahead of myself.

"Bella." I ignored her, and gasped in as much oxygen as possible. "Bella, look at me." She waited, looking me square in the face until I met her gaze." You're going to be fine. Everything is going to go really great tonight, I just know it." She said, as she discreetly touched her forehead.

"I know, Alice. You already told me that. I'm just nervous about how it's going to go. I haven't seen him in almost four days." I replied, still gawking at myself. She silently slipped the dress on me.

"Oh, my." She whispered. I was squeezing my eyes closed, too nervous to look.

"Open your eyes, Bella." She whispered. The suspense was killing me, so I slowly peeked with one eye, feeling like a three year old.

"ALICE! What did you do?" I scremed, joyfully. I looked amazing! I had never seen myself look this good before. I was like a super model, with less curves.

"I made you a work of art, silly!" she screamed back. Then she ran at me like the gazelle she is, and tackled me in a HUGE hug. I screamed, simply from joy. I was like… like a… goddess.

Rosalie came bursting through the door and stopped dead(A/N: No pun intended) in her tracks.

"Bella?" she squeaked out. "Is that you?"

"No, Rosalie. It's Esme. Of course it's Bella!" she screamed sarcastically.

"OH MY GOD, BELLA! You are absolutely stunning!" Rosalie screamed, grabbing me into another intense hug.

"I. Can't. Breathe." I choked out. She let go of me, and she and Alice both took a step away from me, to dwell in my glory. I was beaming.

"Bella, we need to get going." Alice exclaimed gleefully.

Edward's POV:

"Edward, we need to get going." Jasper whispered to me for the third time.

"I know, Jasper. I'm just, nervous. I haven't seen her in four days." I exclaimed. We left the room, just as Alice was opening my door for Bella to walk through. I stopped where I was and stared intently at the door waiting for Bella.

"No, Edward! Your meeting her there! Your not traveling together. You are arriving seperately. How many times do I have to say this?" he exclaimed. He didn't know that I couldn't live without my Bella.

Jasper tore down the stairs just as we all heard Bella whisper:

"Edward?", her angel voice saturated with love. How could she still love me? After all that I had put her through, she still wanted me. It made little sense.

As Jasper grabbed my arm, I can honestly say that I had no idea where we were going. Somewhere secluded, I hoped. I didn't want to hear strange people (A/N: cough Mike Newton cough) flirting oboxiously with Bella. My beautiful, innocent, Bella. It was bad enough that I saw them planning it in their minds, but then I had to witness it. Ugh. How tasteless.

Jasper and I where off and running, headed towards…

Bella's POV:

I flew out of Edward's room the second that I heard him.

"Edward?" I whispered intently. The next thing I knew the back door was closing and Alice and Rosalie each had a firm grip on one of my elbows.

"Not a chance." Alice exclaimed happily. No, not again!

"ALICE! You said forty-five minutes until I saw him! It's been forty-five minutes!" I said to her.

"Yes, you're right, she did say that, Bella. But, if you don't hurry your little butt up, WE'RE GOING TO MAKE IT AN HOUR!" Rosalie roared at me.

I shut-up immediately. The sooner I saw Edward, the better. Alice had me up in her arms and was off within five seconds. I waited patiently for her to put me down, and when she did, she pulled out the blindfold and tied it around my head before I could protest. It felt damper than usual, I felt like we were in a forest. She led me straight forward, and let me go after untying the stupid blindfold. She was gone. I sighed.

I took a few eager steps towards a dim light. I was still in the midst of the trees. I gingerly took a step out of them, and gasped.

It was our meadow.

A/N: Aww! Sweet, yet predictable. It's alright - where the hell could they have gone? :) Re-vamped (ha) 06/23/12 :)
