Chapter 17: The Wedding Part 2
Everything was ready. All I had to do was walk up the aisle. Alice seemed to have ten times more fun than I was having, even though I was the one getting married. "Bella, the wedding is about to start. Charlie is waiting to take you up the aisle," Alice told me. She pushed be towards the door I had to enter. I sighed, and started walking towards Charlie.
"I can't believe
this day has come," Charlie whispered. "My little baby is grown
up."
"Dad," I whined. "Not now." I grabbed his arm, and
he led me to where Edward stood. Charlie went to his seat.
Edward smiled at me, and I smiled back at him. The priest started talking, but I didn't hear a word. "I do," Edward suddenly said.
"Do you, Isabella Marie Swan, take Edward Anthony Mason Cullen to be your husband through thick and thin, health and in sickness until death do you part?" The priest asked. "I do," I said, confidently.
"You may kiss the bride." Edward and I leaned in towards each other, and kissed. He wrapped his arms around me, in a circle of protection.
"Thank you," I whispered.
"This was the best wedding I could have hoped for," he whispered back. His cold breath tickled my ear.
The reception went by quickly. I mostly talked to Renée and Phil. Edward talked to the others animatedly. It was almost over, when I heard Alice gasp in surprise. Edward's head snapped towards his sister, and instantly he was by her side with the rest of the Cullens. When I finally got there, she had 'spilled' punch on her dress. I knew she had a vision.
-Edward's POV-
Alice's vision couldn't leave my head. It even took awhile to figure out what it meant. I saw Bella's death. There was blood everywhere. When I saw Bella's concerned face coming towards us, I needed to pretend it was nothing. How could I do that?
"Edward, what did Alice see?" I shook my head. This couldn't be happening.
"Bella, everything's going to be okay," I lied. "Once you're changed, we need to see the Voultri. She just sees them getting a little impatient." She seemed satisfied with my answer.
"When will you change me?" she asked.
"When the reception is over, say goodbye to Charlie and Renée. I'll be waiting at our house."
"Edward, she needs to be changed now. We can't stall any longer," Alice' quiet thought said. I pursed my lips.
"I know," I said so quietly Bella wouldn't here.
-Bella's POV-
I went back to talk to
Renée, but something was troubling me. I didn't think Alice
didn't see the Voultri, but if she didn't, what did she
see?
"Bella, the reception is almost over." My face fell. "You
look worried," Renée added..
"It's nothing, Mom. I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too, honey." She hugged me. I walked over to where Charlie was waiting for me.
"I'm going to miss you, Dad."
"Promise you'll call and visit often." I bit my lip. I didn't want him to be disappointed.
"Yeah, Dad, I'll visit often." Before I knew it, I was at my house with Edward waiting inside. I hugged my dad goodbye, and left the car. Once I got to the door, I turned around, and waved to him. He smiled back, and left. That's when I heard two gun shots. I screamed once they were fired. I heard voices and footsteps, nearing the house. Then the person with the gun came into view.
AN: GASP what's going to happen? That's for me to know and you to find out. Sorry about the long update, and the short chapter, but I'm running out of ideas.
