A/N: El Fin! Enjoy!
Epilogue
"Oh, Rosalie, you look so wonderful!" Alice exclaimed, standing on her toes to look over Rosalie's shoulder into the mirror.
Rosalie turned and hugged her soon to be sister-in-law.
"Thank you, Alice," she said, "you've been a great maid of honor."
She straightened up. Alice sniffled.
"Alice, are you crying?" I asked.
"I'm just so happy and excited!" she said. She looked down at her left hand, which was dominated by a beautiful engagement ring. "And I can't believe I'm next."
Rosalie laughed and turned to me. "Thank you, too, Bella," she said. "You've been a great bridesmaid, too."
I blushed. "Of course," I said. "I want to be a part of this family now, too. You two are like the sisters I always wanted."
They beamed at me. Edward had been right. Rosalie, though quite shallow, was very nice, and had warmed up to me a great deal once she'd gotten used to me, and she'd even asked me to be one of her bridesmaids. I had been astonished, but very pleased.
"Alright," said Alice, gaining control of her emotions. "Go marry my brother!"
Alice really had gone overboard, as everyone had known she would. The wedding was outdoors by the ocean, a scene which would have been beautiful enough without all of the elaborate decorations. There were beautiful, real flowers everywhere, and white satin draped from the trees, as well as countless other little details that Alice had said were a necessity, like white rose petals scattered across the ground. Alice and I were the only bridesmaids, and we were in dark blue satin dresses that flowed behind us. Alice chose blue to match Rosalie's eyes. Edward and Jasper looked great in their tuxes, but then again, they looked great in anything. Emmett just looked blissful as he watched his bride walk down the aisle, and of course, Rosalie looked stunning. She was the kind of bride that took your breath away when you saw her.
The service was beautiful, and a lot of people (mostly Esme and Alice), teared up as Emmett kissed his bride and the minister presented the new couple to us.
At the reception, Edward cornered me.
"Dance with me," he whispered in my ear. I blushed. Even though we'd been together for nearly four months, he still gave me butterflies.
"I can't dance," I said.
"Nonsense. It's all in the leading." He grabbed my hand and pulled me out onto the dance floor, spinning me around. He held me close to him so that I wouldn't have to move much on my own. I found that I was able to keep up.
"See?" said Edward. "It's not so bad."
"Only because I'm with you," I said.
"You look beautiful," he whispered.
I blushed. "Thank you. So do you."
He chuckled. "I like to think I'm more on the handsome side than beautiful."
I rolled my eyes. "Well I'm not a big fan of the word handsome. I don't mean you look girly when I say you're beautiful. I just mean you're…perfect."
He smiled. "That's exactly what I mean when I tell you you're beautiful as well."
I blushed. "Anyway," I said, trying to change the subject. "I think I know what I want my major to be."
"Really?" he asked. "What's that?"
"I think I want to teach theater."
He smiled. "That would be perfect for you," he said.
"I was kind of thinking the same thing. We could both be teachers."
"That's wonderful," he said. "Two awesome, smoke free teachers."
I rolled my eyes and looked away. I could see Emmett and Rosalie dancing blissfully, though I knew Emmett was ready for the honeymoon. I knew this because he'd told me. The thought of that conversation made me blush all over again. Near them, I saw Carlisle and Esme dancing, as happy and in love as if they were the ones who'd just gotten married. Alice and Jasper were holding each other close and whispering to each other. I smiled at the thought of their December wedding that was coming up. Alice wasn't as patient as Rosalie. She'd wanted to get married as soon as she could without stepping on Rosalie's wedding, so a winter wedding was decided on.
Edward's family was so beautiful, so wonderful, and so loving. I couldn't believe how lucky I was. I not only got the most wonderful man in the world, but also a perfect, complete family like nothing I'd ever had. This made me think of my mom and Charlie. I sighed.
"What's wrong?" Edward asked.
"Nothing," I said. "I just realized you're going to have to meet my parents soon."
He laughed. "That's not such a bad thing is it?"
"No, I'm sure they'll love you," I assured him. "Although Chief Swan may or may not interrogate you like a murder suspect."
"I bet I can handle that," he said.
"I'm sure you can. We can handle anything, right?"
"Anything at all," he said, smiling. "As long as I've got you."
I smiled back. Yes, I thought, I loved this man. I would spend the rest of my life happily ever after.
