I woke up with a longing to feel Edwards's arms around me. Breaking from my daze I let out a gasp as I realized why I was dreading this day. Renee was coming not as a friendly visit but as a visit to talk me out of my marriage with Edward. The other was that I knew Alice was planning on taking me to Seattle for some more shopping and I did not want to run into anyone from works because once one person knows the entire town knows. Even though I was planning on telling everyone eventually I was still procrastinating telling people.
I rolled over unwrapping myself from my sheets and looked at my alarm clock. It was about time to get up anyways Alice would be here in 45 minutes for shopping but this time Edward got to come with us. I stumbled out of bed shut off my alarm clock, grabbed my clothes and went to go get ready.
I was pulling on my blue v neck sweater and form fitting jeans when I heard the doorbell ring. In a rush I pulled my pants up fast, to fast I stumbled back and landed flat on my butt in the middle of the bathroom.
A loud giggle and a quite chuckling told me Charlie had let Alice and Edward in on his way to work.
Suddenly shocking me out of my embarrassment "Bella are you ok? That was quite a fall." Alice said followed by another loud round of giggling.
I finished getting ready and 'tried' to run down the stairs. I was doing well until I hit the last step where I stumbled and started to fall face first. When a pair of strong hands wrapped around my waist and pulled me up onto my feet.
I looked up into his beautiful face when he whispered in his seductive voice "did you really think I would let the floor hurt my fiancée right in front of my eyes?"
I answered by closing the distance between our faces causing our lips to meet. After a few seconds Alice coughed behind us. I pushed away blushing furiously and ran over to the cupboard and grabbed a granola bar and quickly shoved it in my mouth.
"Oh ya Bella Charlie says to remember to pick up Renee at the airport at 5:00" Alice yelled out.
I almost choked on my granola bar fear overwhelming me as I realized what was going to happen. Edward realizing my fear came to my side immediately and whispered in my ear "everything will be ok love I promise." I nodded and pulled myself into his chest.
Alice jumped up next to us and trilled "shopping time."
I groaned but reluctantly agreed wanting to get this day over with. "Alright we can go but Edward is sitting in the back with me." I stated.
"I wouldn't want to do anything else love." he whispered in my ear.
"Oh stop all the mushy mushy stuff you have the rest of your life for that and only till your change for shopping" Alice said at an inhuman speed.
Edward immediately stiffened at Alice's statement; I knew he was sensitive about the subject he believed he would be taking away my soul. Eventually we came to an agreement that if I married him after the honeymoon he would change me when we moved to Alaska. Even though we came to this agreement we both kind of silently agreed not to mention it again.
"Edward its all right I love you." I murmured in his ear and felt him quickly relax.
He pulled me into the back of the car while Alice jumped in the front and quickly sped off. We sat there the entire way in silence just enjoying the others company.
Sooner than I would have liked we pulled into a narrow parking spot in the mall parking lot and where rushed out by an over excited Alice.
"Oh Bella aren't you excited we are getting more clothes and stuff for the reception!" she practically yelled.
"No Alice I am not particularly excited to be going shopping when I could spend an entire day relaxing with my fiancée." I grumbled as Edward chuckled at my lack of enthusiasm.
Alice looked at me with a pout on her face and I found myself feeling bad for her and followed her into a store. Although I didn't pay attention to what store we where headed towards I immediately realized where we where and tried to run. Before I could get anywhere Alice was standing in front of me holding me in place.
"Bella we need to get Edward a present to and where better than Victoria's secret to make a guy happy." She said a little too enthusiastically.
"I agree with the gift idea but does Edward have to be here."I replied as blush crept its way to my face.
"Bella I know you want Edward to have a say on his gift?" she stated matter of factly.
I grumbled but followed Alice further into the store with Edward's arms around my waist. After a lot of changed and debating mainly from me we exited the store with too many bags in tow. Walking out the door we literally almost ran into every single one of our friends.
"Bella." Jessica gasped
"Umm hi you guys what are you doing here." I replied softly.
"Just shopping." She started but then stopped as she looked at the bags in Edwards hands and then up to the sign on the door of the store we just left.
"What are you doing" she said accusingly
I replied by saying "same as you just shopping."
She smirked and then her eyes fell to my ring and she sneered "what is that hunk of junk on your finger."
Edward came to my rescue then by stating " that 'hunk of junk' as you called it is an antique engagement ring that is probably worth more than your house." As he finished he started kissing my neck passionately.
Everyone just gaped for a minute before mike finally blurted out "You're getting married to HIM!"
I felt Edward stiffened and I quickly replied "yes we are going to be married August 13th, Alice here is planning it." As I said that I pointed over to Alice and she smiled happily.
Finally after a few seconds of silence Angela finally stepped forward and said warmly "I'm so happy for you Bella." With her words Ben nodded agreeing with her.
The others just looked furious. Jessica and Lauren looked like they where sizing me up while Erik and mike where looking at Edward as if they where planning on attacking him.
Breaking the silence once again Alice butted in saying "sorry to interrupt but Edward Bella and I have some more shopping to do before Bella's mom arrives."
With that Edward pulled me away and we turned our backs and walked away. Edward chuckled I assume in response to one of my friends thought. Curious I looked back and laughed when I saw there faced staring at us there mouths open in surprise.
The rest of the day went off without a hitch. We got a couple more clothing items them found a caterer for the wedding. Right now we where on our way to the airport to pick up my mom. When I say we I mean Edward and I everyone else backed out at the last minute not wanted to see my moms rage.
We pulled up to the airport and I reluctantly got out of the car. Edward came to my side and pulled me into his arms. We headed into the airport, found the terminal Renee would come out of and awaited fate.
When I first saw her step out of the terminal she had a frown on her face. She took one look at Edward and I and her gaze immediately softened although I'm not sure why. She walked towards us a pulled me into a motherly embrace.
"Bella when Charlie called me I didn't believe that Edward was right for you like he said but as I look at you now I can truly see how happy you are and how much you love each other." As she said this she looked up at Edward and smiled kindly.
I was in shock I was sure there would be more yelling and possibly even violence, and then it hit me. "Charlie called you?"
She looked at me curiously and said "yes, he called and explained how much you two love each other and how happy you where. Didn't you know that?"
I was shocked "no" I stuttered. "He tried to help Edward and I?" I was amazed Charlie had never liked Edward let alone was he ever willing to defend him.
"Yes in fact if it wasn't for him I might have disowned you" she said sternly but followed by a chuckle.
Before I could respond she stepped forward hesitantly but seemed to have a new determined look on her face as she gave Edward a warm hug followed by her saying "welcome to the family son."
I had tears streaming down my face by the time she pulled away. Edward looked at me concern etched on his face.
"I'm fine." I assured him "I'm just so happy that everything worked out." I said between my sobs.
Renee chuckled and reached down to grab her bags but Edward already had them in his hands. She looked up bewildered but satisfied that Edward was such a gentleman.
We headed back to Charlie's and dropped Renee off. It had been decided earlier that day that Renee would stay in my room and I would stay with the Cullen's for the night Renee was in town actually it was my home now to. I said goodnight to my mom before we headed home to my new home. This day turned out a lot better than I expected.
