Chapter 7:

I was in complete bliss when I woke up. Although it was uncomfortable to have to sleep on the floor, I had Edward and everything was comfortable if I had Edward. I heard him stir underneath me. I kissed him on his bare chest and trailed kisses up to his neck. I saw him smile and I kissed him on the nose.

"Good Morning beautiful Fiance," he said and I smiled and kissed him on the lips.

"Morning," I said. I shivered and realized I was freezing. I had forgotten that we were in Forks instead of Phoenix. "Cold?" he smirked.

"Very. I am used to 100 degree temperatures not 50," I laughed and covered myself more with the blanket. I snuggled up to Edward's warm chest. "When are we leaving?" I asked. I kind of wanted to get going so we can get settled in here faster.

"Well it is....," he looked at his phone that was right beside him, "Wow almost 11. Our plane leaves at 4,"

"Mmmkay. I want to shower," I said while started to get up. "Stuffs in the closet right?"

"Yep," he said while he started to get up as well. "Mind if I get in with you?" he asked. I smiled and said. "Oh...I guess not."

We took a shower and got out a half hour later. I suddenly realized how hungry I was and Edwards stomach growled at the same time. I laughed. "I was just thinking that I was really hungry,"

We went to a bagel place for bagels and coffee. We started talking about random things and then I moved on to a subject I have been dying to talk about.

"Can we talk about the wedding?" I was bouncing and a huge grin spread across his face.

"Of course I think we should start by when?" he started.

"Hmm...well it is December right now...how about Julyish?" I said.

"Sounds perfect. Okay now where?"

"I am not planning this without you. It is OUR wedding!" I said. "And plus, I need help."

"Okay, okay!" he laughed and I smiled. "How about my parents house? I'm sure Esme would love that."

"Yeah I really like that idea. And honeymoon?" I said now getting really excited.

"I don't know. We should figure it out later and just relax. I mean we just got engaged!" he said and I nodded knowing he was right.

We went to a hardware store to get copy of our appartment key. We went over to the Cullen household to drop them off along with Carlise's car.

Rose, Alice, Emmett and Jasper flew back last night appartently to start packing up. It was 2 now and Carlise was taking us to the airport. Many things are happening in my life and I couldn't wait for it to start.

****************FOUR WEEKS LATER*****************

Me and Edward are just about settled in. Alice has been bouncing like crazy to start planning for mine and Edward's wedding. I told her I did want some say in it seeing as it is my wedding. Edward says I can do whatever I want. I know he should have a say and I have been trying to get it out of him. Anything. Even if it were as simple as what type of chairs to have. Or as big as what the colors are. He just says 'Whatever makes you happy'.

Right now I was with Alice, Esme and Rose and we were at the Cullen house starting to plan. I told them the color and type of flower and that was it. I had no idea how to plan a wedding so I sat and watched. Since I was having a summer wedding I decided to go with an orange-yellow wedding. The date was set for July just happened to be Valentines day and Edward was cooking me dinner as we speak.

I have been pretty busy writing my novel and working at the local book store and Edward is keeping himself occupied with his residency at the hospital Carlise works at. Everything was falling into place perfectly. The only thing that is missing was my mom. She would have loved planning my wedding with me. I started to tear up at the thought and Esme looked at me with concern in her eyes.

"Is everything okay honey?" she asked.

I nodded. "Yeah, it is just that...well...I was thinkng of my mom."

"Oh sweetie she would be so proud of you. I know that this may be hard to plan without your mother and there is nothing I can say to make it any better, but I will tell you this: I love you like you are a daughter of my own. And soon, you will be offically in my family. Is there anything I can do?" Esme looked at me.

"Thank you. That was actually enough to make me feel better. I love you too, Esme," she smiled warmly at me and hugged me.

"Now go," she said. "You have got your Fiance that loves you very much at home. Have a good time tonight."

"I will. And thanks again," I said as I walked out the front door.

When I got home I saw Edward in the kitchen lighting a candle on the table. The door closed and he looked at me and smiled.

"Hello," I said and walked over and kissed him. "How was your day?"

"Good and how was my Bella's day?" he asked. I smiled and kissed him again.

"I am fabulous. My brain is a little fried of wedding questions, but other than that I am good." I said.

He made parmesian chicken with a salad and dessert was a secret, but I kind of knew what it was. He new that I loved homemade chocolate chip cookies with vanilla ice cream. And I was right.

"Happy Valentines Day, my love," Edward said and kissd me. I kissed him once more and said "I love you."

Everything was really yummy I had never known Edward could cook this well. I told him about how I was a little sad earlier because of my mother and how Esme comforted me. He was happy that I could get along with his family so well.

**********END OF JUNE(3 WEEKS BEOFRE WEDDING)***************

We were at David's Bridal getting our last fitting of dresses. Rosalie and Alice were my brides maids of course. Their dresses were yellow. The straps were about an inch wide. There was an orange bow in the back and it wrapped around under the bust. The dresses came down just below the girls' knees and has a poof. They both look stunning of course. They both had gotten matching orange heels. We still have to decide on hair dos.

"You guys look stunning," I smiled as we looked in the mirror everything had fit just right on them. I was so excited for my wedding I could hardly stand it. I was so ready to be married to Edward. I was stepping into my dress at this thought. It fit absolutlely perfectly. This was so ment to be. I stepped out and the girls squealed.

My dress was white of course and strapless. It has lace on it everywhere that has a design that looks like flowers and has sequence and rinestones on it everywhere. At the very top the dress has a layer of silk material that crosses around the back and then back to the front creating an 'X' that goes back to the back to create a bow. I had to admit that I looked stunning.

Alice, Rose and Esme got teary eyed and I was getting a little myself. We all looked so beautiful.

**********DAY BEFORE WEDDING(4 pm)*************

We were at the dress rehersal right now and I was getting antsy.

"Yes, we know how to walk Alice. We have done it about 4 times now. Please lets just go to the dinner. Everybody is probably wondering where we are," I said and Alice almost glared but Esme agreed along with everyone else.

We got there and everyone was already digging in. We were having italian food at the place where Edward and I had our first date. It was perfect. All of our old high school and college friends were here. This wedding is going to be huge!

We were all gathered around chatting when Carlise stood up. Edward and I looked at him in confusion. He went to the speech spot to make a toast.

"Alright I will try and make this very short and sweet and to the point. Many of you know I am the Father of the Groom and also that at the actual wedding only the Mother of the Groom and the Father of the Bride get to make speeches so here I am now. I am so happy for you two. I remember the day when Edward came home with Bella, it was not the first day, but he came up to me and said, 'Dad, I can't picture my life without her.' At that moment I knew my son would always have someone there for him. Congradulations Edward and Bella," he said. Everybody awwed and Carlise came back to the table. I got up and hugged him.

"Thank you, Carlise," I said.

"Ditto," he said and his words made me laugh. Edward did the same and then people made a dancefloor and started dancing.

"Shall we?" Edward said and I took his hand and let him lead. I laid my head on his shoulder and placed my hands on his chest while his hands were at my waist. We weren't really dancing but swaying with the music. 'Say Once More' by Celine Deon was on and I almost started to cry.

"Whats wrong?" Edward said looking concerned.

"This is the song my mother had with my father at their weddding," I said still sad that my mother couldn't be here. He kissed the top of my head.

"I know you want her to be here, and I am sorry that she can't be, but I am sure she is smiling down at us as we speak and is very happy for you right now," he said.

"Thanks," I said. "Have I ever told you how much I love you?"

"Yes, plenty of timess, but you better not stop now," he said and I kissed him on the lips. "You look stunning by the way," he said.

"Alice," I said and he laughed a little bit and nodded in understanding. I was wearing a strapless summer dress that went with the theme of my wedding of course. It was yellow with pink and orange hearts and circles on it. It went down to just above my knee and I had the orange heels on that they would be wearing tomorrow. I also had on a necklace that Edward gave me for Valentines Day. It was a heart with diamonds on the exterior.

The dinner party was a lot of fun and had very good food. Edward and I were saying goodbye to everyone and also saying that we would see them in a couple days. Alice and Jasper came up to us before Edward and I left.

"Say your goodbye to Edward," she said. I looked at her with confusion.

"HELLO! You are getting married tomorrow. You can't see him until you start walking down the aisle. I will give you 5 minutes. Don't worry I have everything you need. Meet me at my car when you two are done saying your goodbye. I have heard it is the hardest part," I groaned. What was she planning on doing?

"Yep and you are coming with me," Jasper said to Edward.

"As in you are driving my car?" and Jasper nodded and began talking before Edward could protest.

"It is time for your bacholer party. You are lucky I came and not Emmett because unlike him I will give you guys 5 minutes and wait with Alice."

"Please don't let me go," I said to Edward.

"I wish I could say that I could protect you from everything, but when it comes to my sister, fat chance," I groaned at his words. I don't want to leave him.

We just stayed embraced in a hug for a minute. I looked up at him and gave him a kiss. He deepened it and I granted his tounge access. We pulled away a minute later for much needed air.

"I love you and can't wait to marry you," Edward said.

"I love you too. I will miss you loads tongiht. It has been a while since I have gone a night without you. Wierd. I wonder if I will be able to fall asleep."

"Silly Bella I am going to be right there in your heart. Just promise me that you will keep your feet toasty warm okay?" I smiled at his double meaning.

"They are already on fire. And yours?" I asked. He smiled.

"Burnt off,"

"What?! I can't marry someone that doesn't have feet!" I said jokingly and then kissed him while laughing.

"I love you, Bella. I will see you tomorrow. Meet me at the altar?"

"I will be the one in white," I said. (SM words. NOT mine)

"I hope so," he said while laughing and kissing me again.

"Not too many strippers tonight, kay?" I said jokingly. I trust him with all of my being.

"Only a few," he said with a wink. "Here comes the devil on heels," Edward said.

"Love you. Don't change your mind, okay?" I said.

"I won't. Love you too," he said and gave me another big kiss. It was then I was pulled away from my husband-to-be.
