Okay, so maybe you liked chapter 1 and you're wanting to see what happens in chapter 2. Or maybe you thought chapter 1 was a joke and chapter 2 is the punchline... Well, feel free to let me know. By the way, I don't own Twilight or the song. The song is 'Without You' by the Dixie Chicks.'

Remember, if I get reviews, an update on this story is possible...

Chapter 2


Her own vows flowed as easily as Edward's had. Perhaps it was because of Alice's help writing them. And people had told her before that she had a pretty good singing voice. What the heck. Everyone was waiting. She wouldn't have to face them for long afterward.

Before she sang her vows, she felt she had to explain something to Edward. "When you left Forks," she began, She reached to brush away a tear, but Edward beat her to it. "I was miserable. I couldn't do anything without feeling that a part of me was missing. The point of my vows is to try to make you understand that without you, I-I can't be myself.

"I've sure enjoyed the rain
but I'm looking forward to the sun
You have to feel the pain
when you lose the love you gave someone
I thought by now that time
would take away these lonely tears
I hope you're doing fine all alone,
but where do I go from here 'cause
"

Edward looked pleasantly surprised at hearing Bella begin to sing as well. Her voice was literally music to his ears.Without you I'm not okay
And without you
I've lost my way
My heart's stuck
in second place ooh
Without you
"

"

He smiled as she continued. She'd never looked more beautiful to him than at this moment. How was he ever supposed to wait for the honeymoon. He could feel his powerful self-control weakening as he watched her."Well I never thought I'd be
lying here without you by my side
It seems unreal to me that
the life you promised was a lie
You made it look so easy
making love into memories
I guess you got what you wanted
but what about me 'cause"

He closed his eyes and thought of the quote, "One fairer than my love? The all-seeing sun Ne'er saw her match since first the world begun." It was from Romeo and Juliet, of course, the greatest love of all time. Before theirs came along that is.

"Without you I'm not okay
And without you
I've lost my way
My heart's stuck
in second place ooh
Without you
"

He couldn't believe he was getting her love. She who was so beautiful, so intelligent, so... wonderful. If he were still human perhaps he wouldn't consider the notion that two beings were made to be so perfect for one another. Although one was perhaps an angel and the other could possibly be considered a demon.

"Somebody tell my head to try to tell my heart
That I'm better off without you
'Cause baby I can't live
"Without you I'm not okay
And without you
I've lost my way
My heart's stuck
in second place ooh
Without you...Without you
"

"

When Bella finished, the preacher turned to her. "Do you, Isabella Swan, take Edward Cullen to be your lawfully wedded husband to have and to hold in sickness and in health for richer or poorer so long as you both shall live?"

Bella answered happily. "I do."

"And to you, Edward Cullen, take Isabella Swan to be your lawfully wedded wife to have and to hold in sickness and in health for richer or poorer so long as you both shall live?"

Edward didn't hesitate. "I do." he answered proudly.

"Then, by the power vested in me, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss your bride."

Edward pulled Bella close and drew her into a passionate kiss.

When they'd finished, the preacher spoke once more. "May I present for the first time anywhere Mr. and Mrs. Edward Cullen!" A huge roar of applause rose from the crowd then, complete with whistles, cheers, and confetti. Edward headed to the parking lot, carrying his new bride. He sat her in the long white limo, then got in himself, and it drove off.


Ok, show of hands... Who thought the song was a little um, unusual for this. Yeah, me too, but I wanted the whole. "Without you, I'm not me" thing. I considered 'Little Rock" by Colin Raye, but, ya know, Bella just lacks the whole "recovering alcoholic"... thing.

Anyhow... please read and review. I hope you enjoyed!
