Edward POV (Platt)
I am so happy to be getting this fitting over. I shrugged on my jacket and waited for the guys to get to my car. God, what the hell is going on? While I waited for the dumbasses to get here, I played with the bruise Laurent 'accidently' gave me with a damn needle.
"Hey Ed, Mom and Bella want you in the bridal shoppe" James called walking to the car and held out his thumb to the shoppe. I groaned. What now?
I stomped to the shoppe to see Bella waiting for me. She smiled and took my hands leading me to the back of the store. Oh so this is what she wanted?
"Oh babe, if you wanted a quickie, why not just say so?" I teased. She blushed and then she called for my mom. Oh yeah. Was this some Maid oh Honor and Best Man shit again?
"Ok, guys. I wanted to get your opinion. It was this or some mermaid dress" Mom said.
"Mom anything is better than a damn Little Mermaid costume" I called to her. I heard her giggle and then she walked out. Holy mother of snot!
My mother, Esme Platt, was in a foofy white, sparkly, gown. What the hell?
I gaped. She looked…not like my mommy. I swallowed and ran a hand through my hair. My mommy looked beautiful.
"You look…" I trailed off. Mom bit her lip and smoothed out the skirt. It was strapless and I think satin. It had crystals and pearls and the ivory lace. It had a skirt that had crystals on it too and oh my god. Mom looked incredible. Oh god, I was hanging around the girls way too much. A guy shouldn't know this shit.
"You look gorgeous" I said still speechless. FYI this doesn't happen often.
"Thanks sweetheart. Bella, what do you think?" She asked. Bella gaped too. I wonder what was running through her mind too.
"I think you look gorgeous. I love the satin criss-cross bodice. The crystals and rhinestones are a nice touch. The skirt… I love the tulle fabric and the glitter net. The sweetheart neckline is a great compliment as well. I think that's taffeta if I'm not mistaken." Bella said. A whatta, whatta, whatta, whaa?
Yup girl talk. Only thing I knew was satin, crystal, rhinestone, and glitter. Oh the joys of having little sisters.
All I knew was that Mom was gonna blow Carly's balls off. Ha! If that were to happen.
Bella POV (Cullen-Swan)
Holy shoot today is the day. I rolled over to see Edward snoring and his arm squeezing me. I giggled and poked his cheek which made him stir. I snuggled into him and started kissing up his neck. Suddenly, I was rolled over and he was hovering over me smirking.
"Hello there my little love" He said curiously. I stuck my tongue out. He did the same and I rolled my eyes. He rolled over and I sat up Indian style. Edward just sat up half-way and stared.
"Our parents are getting married today. Holy fucknuggets" He exclaimed and just fell over. Literally. He landed on my lap and his head on my stomach. I ran a hand through his hair and kissed his nose. He made a face at me and sighed.
"I better go get my shit. Carlisle and us guys are leaving to this hellhole so we can leave you girls to get ready in this place. Besides, Emmett invited Josh to come with us. He even flirted with his Mommy Dearest and then offered to pick up Jordynn which I don't mind. Josh, eh, Carlisle said it was fine and he didn't give a shit but I do!" He argued. I stroked his chest and kissed him again.
"You're just being the typical older brother. It'll be fine, she'll be fine. Just relax and have fun with your brothers. I'll see you in a few hours" I smiled sadly to be parting. He sat up and grabbed his clothes from my chair and put his shirt back on then slid his jeans on. He then grabbed his sunglasses, keys, and phone. He kissed my forehead and then left. I curled up and when I heard Alice yelling at him I smiled. For twins they weren't very much alike. Well, in some ways they are.
"Bella!" Alice sang and ran in grinning. I backed away from the hyper pixie ands she just smiled.
"Bella, c'mon! We're all meeting in Carlisle and Esme's room. Rose picked up our dresses, shoes, and I have everything on schedule! The boys want us all in the bathroom so they can give Mom something" She said and rolled her eyes. She then took my hand and dragged me to Esme's and Dad's bathroom. There was everyone sitting on the tub and also on other people's lap. It was shocking how long my family and the Platt's got closer. Frankie and Cassidey were like best friends now and even though my side is the more responsible and naiive and they're irresponsible and insane, we were a good balance.
"So, girls my brothers and I made a rap. I hope you like it" Emmett grinned. The boys were about to start but people starting running down the hallway of the bathroom to the bathtub and sink area.
"No! No don't start! Don't you dare start! We're here!" Edward yelled and ran into the bathroom. What? I stood up and walked over to see why he was so stressed. I saw him with two kids behind him; Jordynn and Josh. Brianna squealed and ran over to Josh. He pecked her cheek and I saw Edward's fist ball. I stroked his arm and he slowly released his grip. Sean went to Jordynn and he took her hand and led her to the bathroom. Once we all got settled Edward went by Emmett and the boys started a bluesy ooh. Emmett started beat boxing. It was a weird mix, but it was Emmett.
"Yo my little mom
You know you're the bomb
And to show you you're a good mommy
I got chu a crowny!" He rapped with a goody smile and we all laughed. It was goofy, and crazy but it was Emmett and it made Esme smile.
"Well, let me see it" She smiled. Edward handed her a box and she made a curious expression. She undid the rainbow bow and gasped. What? I waited impatiently for her to show everyone.
"How much?" She asked. What was the dang thing?
"Well, not one person could've saved for so long, so we all chipped in. It was $345.78 and it was the only one left, so we put it on hold until we cashed our money together and ended up making 400 and split it." Jasper said and the guys nodded. My eyes widened. My brothers were on this too?
"Esme what did the boys get you, that cost so damn much?" Dad asked shocked. Esme took the object out of the box and it was a tiara. I gasped. It was small, and it was definitely crystal. There was only one word that described what it looked like; beautiful.
"Whose idea?" she asked. Jasper and Trevor raised their hands sheepishly. My own brother Jasper thought of doing that? It made me proud, but at the same time ashamed. How could he have an idea to buy Esme a tiara, when he couldn't even be his own father's Best Man? I didn't understand that logic.
"Thank you so much" Esme whispered and put it back in the box. The boys just nodded and I heard her thank them quietly again. I could tell she was shocked by her sons' actions.
"I'll definitely be wearing it today" She smiled. The boys beamed and the girls pushed them out.
"Go get ready!" Alice hissed. They nodded and Dad and Esme kissed before they walked out of the bathroom to go to the place Edward called a 'hellhole'.
"Alice what time do we have to be at the salon?" Esme asked.
"In 20. I'm glad everyone got up early. We're waiting for two more people to show up" Alice smiled sneakily.
"Ok girls, today's the day. Go get ready in something comfy and don't you dare wear makeup nor do anything to your hair. Only take a shower, and brush your hair. Let it air dry. Just wear some sweats or jeans, a cute tee, and a hoodie. Jordynn you can use Sean's shower. Now go" Esme smiled and we all went to our rooms.
"So Bella, it's been a while since you've been in this room" Alice giggled as we went to our room.
"Oh hush up. Edward and I have just been…getting to know each other" I told her. She gave me a 'yeah, I really believe that' look. I blushed again.
"Ok, ok. Alice stop it" I giggled. She smiled.
"Ok, ok. Go get that ass in the shower!" She hissed and pushed me into our shower. I rolled my eyes and pushed the play button on my iPod. Carrie Underwood came out of the speakers. I washed my hair and body and also shaved. I didn't want to use the hot water up, so I got out and let Alice in.
"I'm here!" I heard a scream once I got to my room. What?
"I'm here too!" a British voice said.
"Hey! You shut the door on my Lizzy!" Aunt Terry whinedf. What?
I quickly got dressed in a pair of jeans and Edward's royal blue v-neck. I ran down the stairs to see Liz, Aunt Terry, and some guy.
"Hello love" the British guy smiled. I hesitantly replied.
"Hey sweetheart" Aunt Terry smiled. I smiled back and gave her a hug.
"Hey Bella Boo" Liz smiled and gave me a hug. I returned it and the guy handed out his hand.
"I am Edward's godfather in some fucked up ways. Ooh! He was also named after me. I was also his parent's best friend. Well, his dad's used to be best friend. I'm still Esme's best friend. I don't about Carly" He said wandering off.
"Nice to meet yo Edward" I giggled. He shook my hand and brought me into a hug. Ok, that's ok too.
"Well, the girls are almost done and we're going to go get our hair done" I told them. Edward nodded.
"Where did the guys go?" He asked. I shrugged.
"I have no idea. Edward called it a hellhole, but he tends to over exaggerate."
"Ok, I'll call him and the guys. See you girls later" He said and winked at Liz. She gave him a sly look and nodded. He left the house and my aunts went upstairs to Esme's room.
"Ok, everyone is almost ready" Alice said and handed me her brush. I brushed my hair and Aunt Terry and I started making breakfast for everyone. Just Nutella sandwiches.
"Thanks Bella" Alice smiled. I shrugged. Everyone came down in their jeans and cute t-shirts with their sneakers. We all quickly ate and had our glasses of juice before we left in the big SUV. Esme and Aunt Terry got in the front while I sat next to Rosalie and Alice. The girls squished together in the back seat, and Liz squished in the front with us.
"Ok girls here we are. Rosalie, Rochelle, Victoria, Frankie, Jordynn, and Bella you girls don't need to listen to this. Cassidey, Alice, Brianna, and Caitlin you girls do. You will not cuss, criticize, back talk, be rude, or selfish to these ladies who are working to make you girls beautiful. You will behave and do not pop your gum in front of these women" Esme said sternly. The girls nodded and we all got out. The place wasn't busy, maybe because it was so early, but we did book the place.
"Hey girls! I'm Leanna, and these are my girls: Spencer, Emily, Grace, Kaity, Charlotte, Emma, and Evelyn. These are my guys, Hunter, Duncan, Bradley, Levi, Caden, and Jackson. The guys do hair, and the girls do hair and makeup. When Alice booked us for Esme's special day, she sketched out a makeup idea?" Leanna asked. What? Alice pulled something out of her purse and handed it to Leanna. She evaluated it and nodded with a smile.
"We can so do this!" she smiled. Alice smiled and Leanna showed her crew. They nodded.
"Ok! So let's go sit in some chairs and we'll talk about which styles you would like" Leanna smiled and led us to chairs. She led us to an aisle with eight chairs in two rows. We all sat randomly in ones and they all stood in the middle of the aisle.
"Ok, Esme, which ideas have you brainstormed?" Leanna asked
"Well, my sons got me a tiara, so I was thinking oh a half pony tail do with my side bangs hanging out too. I was also thinking of curls" She said. Ooh, that would be pretty.
"Beautiful! Any ideas for the girls' hair?" Leanna asked and her crew members went to each of us. I got a man named Caden.
"Well, I had an idea. The girls can have two different hair dos. Even though I feel and treat Carlisle's daughters like my own I figured they can have their own styles and mine can have their own. Carlisle's can have a classy messy bun with their bangs out, and mine can have a half down, half up and instead of the up part being a pony tail it could be a bun. Do you get what I'm saying?" She asked. I giggled. Esme wasn't very good at explaining things.
"In a way I do. Surprisingly. Ok, well crew get started on the girls, and I'll get started on Esme" She smiled. Caden started playing with my hair and pursed his lips. I blushed. I know my hair was in bad condition, but hopefully he'll be able to make it…makeable.
"Bella, I love you hair" He said simply. My eyes widened. What?
"No it's pretty damaged" I said nervously. He shook his head and took my hand to lead me to the sink. I just washed m hair too. I sat down and he started washing my hair as he ranted about his girlfriend.
"She just gets so jealous! I mean, a guy can be a hairdresser too and not be gay." He ranted. I giggled.
"I'm sorry that happened to you" I said. He shrugged.
"It's ok. What about you, and your guy?" He asked. I shook my head.
"I can't tell you" I sang. He pouted.
"C'mon, you gotta tell me! I won't tell anyone" He promised. I sighed.
"Ok, just don't tell Esme" I told him. He nodded and started drying my hair.
"I'm dating my step-brother. And my dad's Best Man" I told him. His eyes widened.
"You're dating two guys?" He asked. No!
"No! I mean I'm dating my step-brother who is my Dad's Best Man" I told him. He nodded.
"Oh" He said. I nodded.
We talked about our relationships and how his girlfriend gets jealous when guys hit on him which I think is pretty funny. Caden was a fun was going guy, real easy to talk to. I might keep him as my hair dresser form now on.
"Alright Bella, you're done" He smiled and sprayed hair spray on my hair. My hair was cute. He put it in a fat messy bun, with my sidebands hanging off straightened. It was cute.
"Thanks Caden" I smiled and he took the smock thing off and I stood up to give him a hug.
"No problem. Now you better come back. You're hair may be gorgeous but it needs a deep condition" He told me. I promised and I went to get my makeup done.
"Hey Bella, ok so this is what I have planned for your sisters." Charlotte told me and showed me her sheet of paper. It was a makeup paper like the paper at MAC and had the shadows and everything. I loved it, but it's too much.
"Charlotte I love this, but can you make something simpler for my sisters and I? Like a deep green sparkly eye shadow, some thin black liner, and mascara?" I asked her. She nodded.
"I got it. Simple" She smiled and showed me her shadow. I nodded. She started doing my makeup and it was relaxing. I love the feeling of eye shadow brushes.
She took her time and was a complete perfectionist. She was also chewing mint gum, which was a plus because I don't want smelly breath on me. Oh god, I'm sounding more like Edward everyday.
After about an hour of sitting there she was done. She handed me a hand mirror and I looked at it. It was perfect! It was a little heavy and dark on the shadow, but it was one color. The emerald green was only on my lid, and she put a white shadow for brightener. It was heavy, but better than the green smoky eye. She had thin black eyeliner and a thin line on my bottom lid on my water line. It was a little heavy and dark on the shadow, but it was one color. The emerald green was only on my lid, and she put a white shadow for highlighter. It was heavy, but better than the green smoky eye. She had thin black eyeliner and a thin line on my bottom lid on my water line. It was pretty, and wasn't so in your face.
"Thank you" I said. She shrugged.
"It's what I do. Also do you want Jordynn's eye makeup like this or like Alice wanted it?" She smiled and hugged.
"Like Alice's" I told her. She nodded and I was officially done. When I checked my clock we've been here going on two hours. While I waited for others to finish I read People magazine. Rose was next to finish and we read magazines and ate the snacks she brought with her. It was smart to say the least.
After everyone was finished we waited for Esme. She looked gorgeous with the tiara in her hair. I smiled at her. She was getting a smoky eye with browns and greys. It was gorgeous and not too much or too little.
"Alright girls, you ready?" She asked. We all nodded. The Platts' hair looked gorgeous and it took longer, because they had to use so many pins, and they put flowers in everyone's hair, including mine before we left the shop because Caden forgot to stick it in, and we looked gorgeous.
Alice's makeup idea was a light green eye shadow on the lids, and on the lash line. They had dark green on the corners and the crease, and a mint green and white highlighter. It was really heavy, and they had thick black eyeliner on the top lid, and thick on the bottom water line.
We went to the house to get the dresses and it was going on three hours by this point. It was a 5 o'clock wedding, so we had to hurry. We were running late. It was now three-thirty and three pairs of shoes were missing. Shit!
"Alice! You planned all of this! Find the damn shoes!" Liz yelled. Alice nodded and was looking all around the house. We had the dresses on the racks, and had the shoes in the boxes stacked up. Alice found one pair in the pantry and realized her brother's hid them.
"Goddamn them!" She shrieked and flipped out her phone ordering us all to call each one. I was so mad right now. If Edward hid any shoes and made his mother late for her own wedding.
I called Edward and heard people joking in the background and laughing. What the heck are they doing?
"Hey babe, what's up?" He asked. I rolled my eyes.
"Where did you hide the shoes?" I asked quietly.
"Ok first, it wasn't me. Second, ask Sean, James, and Carter, and third: I think you can find them in random places. I think I saw a pair in the grill" He said. My eyes widened
"You charred the bridesmaids shoes?" I yelled. Everyone was now looking at me with wide eyes, thinking the same thing I was.
"I don't know. Look love I have to go, Carlisle wants me off the phone. I love you see you in a few" He said and hung up. That was helpful.
"Someone check the grill!" I yelled. I saw Victoria run outside and pop it open. Indeed the box was there.
One down, two more to go.
Edward POV (Platt)
Carlisle wanted us all to like get hair do shit. Um, Carly, my hair isn't tamable. So we just slicked back some people's hair and spiked other's.
It didn't take us long to get ready. We all showered and blew dry our hair Then we got dressed and hung out. Well, my brother's and I were in some jeans and our wife beaters.
"Has anyone seen my tie?" Justin yelled. We all yelled back our 'no!' and relaxed.
"T-shirt time!" We all sang. It was four-forty-five and got dressed. We all grabbed our shades and stuffed our shit in our pockets. We waited for the Cullens to finish with their stupid tuxes.
I love words. I thank you for hearing my words.
I want to tell you something about words that I think is important.
They're my work, they're my play, they're my passion.
Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.
There's my phone. I looked at the Caller ID to see it was Bella.
"Hey babe what's up?" I asked her. Emmett was grinning and he started turning around and having those make out sessions with himself where you put their arms around your body and make sex noises. I threw a pillow at him and kicked his shin. Fucking dumbass.
"Where did you hide the shoes?" She asked quietly. I paled. Shit.
"Ok first, it wasn't me. Second, ask Sean, James, and Carter, and third: I think you can find them in random places. I think I saw a pair in the grill" I said remembering watching Carter sneakily putting them in the grill.
"You charred the bridesmaids shoes?" She shrieked. I held the phone from my ear. I grimaced. Damn it Bella.
"Edward off now" He told me and everyone stood up to leave to the ceremony scene.
"I don't know. Look love I have to go, Carlisle wants me off the phone. I love you see you in a few" I told her and hung up.
"Dude, Bella and the girls can't find their shoes. You need to call the girls and tell them where you and James put the goddamn shoes" I hissed at Carter. I got an earful from my girl, and I was sort of pissed she was pissed at me even though it's her brother and my brother's faults.
"Shit I kind of forgot where I put them." James said walking up. My eyes widened.
"Ok I remember I put a pair in the grill, a pair in the shower…no wait I took those out and put them in the…pantry!" Carter exclaimed. Ok two pairs down.
"I forgot! Ok I put them in the gazebo then I realized spiders were in there and I ran out with them and then I put them under a bed. I don't remember which bed" He said frustrated as we got into the car.
I knew three things: Justin's tie was missing, the girls' shoes were somewhere under a damn bed, and we were screwed. Another thing to add to my FML account.
Ok this is the first part of the wedding. I hope y'all liked it!
