A/N. Ok so this chapter is crucial in some aspects, well not really because my story is far from perfect. Anyways there is a lot of foreshadowing. I also know that vampires shouldn't be able to get drunk and they can't really, it's more of a mental thing. When they drink in the story their true desires and things they can't do normally come out.
I Swear- Boyz II Men
I swear
By the moon and the stars in the skies
And I swear
Like the shadow that's by your side
I see the questions in your eyes
I know what's weighing on your mind
You can be sure I know my part
'Cus I stand beside you through the years
You'll only cry those happy tears
And though I make mistakes
I'll never break your heart
And I swear
By the moon and the stars in the skies
I'll be there
I swear like the shadow that's by your side
I'll be there
For better or worse, 'till death do us part
I'll love you with every beat of my heart
And I swear
I'll give you every thing I can
I'll build your dreams with these two hands
We'll hang some memories on the walls
And when, and when just the two of us are there
You won't have to ask if I still care
'Cus as the time turns the page, my love won't age at all
Welcome to Forever
Alice's Point of View
Time to go bug the hung-over human and extremely pissed off vampire. It's funny that he got so drunk that he doesn't remember the night either. Hell, he almost fell asleep.
I'm happy I followed through with the plan. I haven't told Edward and Bella anything about what the future holds, because even though the future hurts in places it works out for the better. I'm tired of playing God. That's why I let them get so toasted, and had us go with them.
"Wake up sun shines. The day is about to begin and I know neither of you remember last night. Do you want to hear the story," I nearly screamed hurting both of their heads. I probably shouldn't be picking on a vampire with a mood problem, but hey he's my brother he won't kill me. At least I sure as hell hope not.
Bella moaned and then proceeded to run to the bathroom to dispose of the acid build up from the alcohol. I probably should have cut them off, then again if I would have done that they wouldn't be truly happy. They will learn in time the meaning behind my madness. They will thank me after they stop cursing at me for a few months.
"Alice, what happened last night? I don't remember anything." He looked down and realized he was naked, and Bella was too as she left the room. His face went from a pained, confused to one of a confused rage. "Why the hell didn't you stop us? It was an agreement between us that we would not have sex until we were married. How could you let us do that Alice? Did we even use protection?" Angry Edward couldn't even scare a teddy bear. That's typical with guys though. The only time their scary is when they are trying to force you into something.
Bella entered the room again wearing a towel and looking at me in bewildered embarrassment. "Bella, Edward get dressed then I have a little tale and some pictures to show you." Their faces fell as I left the room. I hope they don't kill me. It's honestly better this way.
A half hour later Bella stumbled out in a pair of designer jeans and a Burberry top. Hah, now that she has designer clothes I' never going to get her out of them. She will never like the labels, but she loves the soft and comfortable nature of the clothes. She just needed to give them a shot.
"Ok, guys what I' about to tell you will probably earn me the silent treatment until you figure out why I've done it. I can't tell you why now, because if I do it will screw up the future for everyone involved. Please have an open mind, and understand that this was for the best." I told them. I looked for moral support, Jasper said he was going to be here, but I guess he was terrified of their reactions. It might be better if I do this myself.
"Alice, why did you let us get so drunk?" Edward asked me.
"Well, that was purely for the sick enjoyment of the family. They love it when you drink and it probably wouldn't have been quite as memorable if I did cut you off. I do regret however letting you drink so much you forgot the events of last night."
"Gee, my own family acts like a bunch of frat boys. Great to know how loved I am." That boy needed a serious attitude adjustment.
"Alice, please tell me what happened. I can't stay mad at you for long, even if you are the mastermind behind it."
"Ok, please I rather like my life," and then I proceeded to tell my confused and angry siblings about their wedding.
Flashback
Narrators Point of View
Bella ran into the bedroom giggling manically. She pulled out a short white summer dress for herself and some black slacks and a blue polo for Edward. She was completely tanked.
"Edward, put this on. We are going to go get married!" She excitedly yelled at the lanky, god-like vampire.
"Bella, are you sure? We have only been engaged for less then a week." The pale faced man answered.
"Of course silly. I would have married you sooner if you hadn't have been in another state. I have waited for you long enough Edward."
Edward started to dance drunkenly and replied, "I have waited for you too, my beautiful Bella. Let's make this official."
The couple dressed in their wedding attire and made a phone call."Alice, we are getting married!" Bella screamed into the phone. "Meet us at the chapel."
Alice and the rest of the family were already gathered there of course, waiting for the happy couple. Renee and Charlie were conversing with Carlisle and Esme, while Jake stood off to the side eyeing the vampires with great disdain. The chapel was dull and boring. Generic like all the other chapels in the city where marries are formed to be broken.
"Why are we letting them do this drunk?" Carlisle asked Alice.
"This is the only way we can have her parents here. That is the only thing that Bella asked for in her wedding, and I am obligated to give it to her as her maid of honor. I'm not sure why I am letting them do this drunk though, probably because the vows are funnier." Alice hissed bouncing impatiently from chair to chair.
"You know that's not very nice right Alice, what if they are so drunk they do not remember it in the morning." Renee spoke from Charlie's side.
"That is why we tape it. If they want another ceremony we can have one, but I know this is what they wanted. Bella told me once that she only wanted he close friends and family to witness her wedding and that is what I am giving her." Alice remarked.
"I don't see why she didn't call me herself." Jacob drawled in his arrogant tone. The disgust for his present company etched on his face. "I'm only here to support her, even though I don't see why she ran off with my godson and never contacted me again. She probably still hates me."
"Ask her about that yourself tomorrow. Today should be full of nothing but smiles and at least the pretense that we love one another. Yes, that applies to you too Charlie. You need to get over the fact that Edward left her. Trust me he never wanted too." Esme told the room looking directly at Charlie.
"We have five minutes." The pixie like vampire got everyone into their positions and started the music. Edward's compositions filled the air as the guests of honor walked through the door.
"Edward, by Emmett and Japer, Bella stand here." Alice shouted while rooting a stumbling Bella to spot at the end of the aisle.
Ryan and Charlie stuck an arm through each of Bella's and walked her down to her groom. Edward beamed at Bella as she kissed her son and father on the cheek and took Edward's hands.
"I Edward Anthony Masen-Cullen take my beautiful Bella to be my wife. I know I have left you broken and alone in the past, but I want and need you by my side forever. You are my world, Isabella and I hope that by taking you as my wife you fully understand that I am no longer the controlling, pompous, and hurtful person I was when we were in school. I love you Bella, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
"I Isabella Marie Swan take you Edward to be my occasionally pompous and extremely handsome husband. I love you more then words can describe, and I want you to stand by me forever and always. I could never imagine my life without you now that I have found you again. I know through thick and thin you will be my mate."
"Alice I thought you said their vows would be funnier drunk. That was so sappy I think I am going to hurl on my feet." Jacob muttered under his breath. Alice smiled in return.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride." Edward lifted Bella off her feet and placed a lingering kiss on her mouth. The small crowd in the generic chapel clapped and cat-called, as Rose shouted, "Time to dance your first dance!"
I Swear by Boyz to Men started playing in that moment and the couple became lost in themselves. "I love you Bella Cullen." "I love you Edward Cullen." With that the couple turned to their most cherished friends and family and announced they were returning to their room for some fun.
"Be sure to use everything in this bag," Alice whispered to Bella as the happy couple, now nearly sober made their way to the limo.
"Holy crow Alice! That is just what I wanted, although I wanted to be able to actually remember my wedding. How did you get everyone here?" Bella asked me.
"I saw in my visions when I was planning to send the two of you here alone that you would get tipsy and tie the knot. That didn't go so well, so I planned it that everyone was here and you were able to have your wedding with your family. The only thing I changed from the original plan, was the addition of the family." I replied, hoping that one of them didn't ask the question I was dreading. I can't answer that now. It will ruin everything.
"Why couldn't you have waited until after Bella has Rose's baby? That's when we were planning on having the ceremony. Why didn't you stop us?" Damn you Edward.
"That will be explained in time. If you still want a real wedding after the baby is born please let me know and I will plan it. If not, I hope you enjoy your video. You both will remember it in a few minutes. You weren't all that drunk Edward, you just wanted to block it out subconsciously until Bella remembered, and to answer your next question yes you did use protection." Ugg, can't he get over this.
"We both forgive you, although we wish you wouldn't play God anymore Alice. We are adults we can make our own decisions." That is why I no longer share my visions with any one I am tired of being a damn fortune teller. I did this so Bella could see her parents on her wedding day, but no they just get mad.
"Alice where are the pictures? Are my parents and Jake still around?" Bella asked me, jerking me out of my self loathing and moodiness.
"Here are your pictures and Jake waited around for you Bella, the two of you are going for a drive around town today. Be sure you eat at the South Coast buffet for dinner, you will love it." I replied, knowing that this would be one of the last times she would ever see Jake. The vision of the two of them cruising around in a Lexus came to me and I smiled. Best friends should never be separated. He will bring her back safe, and that leaves Edward time to verbally tear me apart. I know he is just keeping his cool for Bella's sake.
