Author's note: So my lovelies how are you all doing? Drop me a line and let me know what you're thinking about my story…. The chapters are pretty much writing themselves these days so daily updates will be definitely happening for a while longer.
Things in the story are going to be jumping ahead a little from now on since I have big plans for the remaining chapters!
Disclaimer: I still do not own Twilight and never will *sigh*
The months raced by as we settled into our new jobs and routines. It was definitely nice for me having Jasper there, working just down the hall. We were able to support each other in the kind of way only best friends could.
Luckily for me and Jasper too for that matter, we seemed to get the best pupils in our classes. Something I was very grateful for after hearing some of the horror stories from other teachers.
The end of the year rushed by us and Edward and I celebrated our first anniversary then we spent Thanksgiving in Florida and Christmas in Port Angeles with all of our families there.
Sometime in March it was Emmett and Rose's second anniversary, they had gone away for the weekend and now it was Sunday night. Alice, Jazz, Edward and I were all watching a movie at the guys place when suddenly we heard Emmett's car pull up and the sound of footsteps hurrying into the house.
"Oh good your all here!" Rose said excitedly.
Something was up that much was clear, Rose looked flushed and excited and Emmett was beaming from ear to ear.
I glanced at Edward who shrugged; clearly he didn't have a clue as to what was going on then.
"We have some news" Rose announced beaming.
Emmett cleared his throat and said "I asked Rose to marry me."
I gasped, as did Alice, who then began to squeal.
"I said yes!" Rose shrieked, "I'm going to be Rosalie Cullen!"
"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" Alice squealed launching herself at Rose.
Edward got up and hugged his brother, grinning widely, "Congratulations Em" he said, "I'm so happy for you guys!"
"Thanks little bro" he replied ruffling Edward's hair.
There were hugs all round and then Alice squealed the inevitable. "Oh Rosie you have to let me plan your wedding!"
Rose beamed at her and me, "I was kind of counting on that, since you will both be my maids of honour"
That started another round of hugs and a few tears while the guys looked on amused.
"By the way" Emmett said, "You both are my groomsmen."
Jasper and Edward looked thrilled.
The very next day wedding plans were already in full swing, magazines dominated every surface in the living and dining areas.
"I see Alice has settled into her new role nicely then?" Edward commented amused, picking up a magazine and waving it at me.
"Oh don't you know it" I replied, "And by the way if you mention any aspect of it to her you'll probably get roped into doing something girly that you don't want to do."
He laughed, "Crazy little pixie" he said affectionately.
Rose and Emmett, well actually Rose and Alice had decided it would be a summer wedding, so July 27th, one week after Alice's birthday Rose and Em would be getting married.
They had picked out a country club on the outskirts of Seattle, with amazingly beautiful gardens and a grand hall perfect for a wedding.
One Saturday afternoon we were dress shopping, in a very expensive wedding boutique I should add when we found Rose's perfect dress.
"This is it!" she announced excitedly from behind the dressing room curtain.
"What's it?" I asked a little dazed. We had been in here for hours and there had been a lot of dresses.
"Oh!" I squeaked realising what she meant, "I'll get Alice" I told her rushing out into the shop where Alice was frantically looking through dress books with the sales girl for other options for Rose.
"Alice she's found it" I told her tapping her on the shoulder.
Alice bolted towards the dressing room suddenly, towing me behind her.
"Rosie show us!" she squealed excitedly.
Rose drew the curtain back and stepped out.
Alice clapped her hand to her mouth, astonished.
"Rose, its perfect" I told her, tears welling in my eyes, "You look beautiful!"
"You think so?" she asked.
"Utterly perfect" Alice chimed in, "Emmett is going to flip" she grinned.
"How was shopping?" Edward asked me when I arrived at his place later that day.
"Mmm good" I replied breathing in his delicious scent as he held me.
He chuckled.
"Rose found it" I told him still snuggling.
"Shit no not it?" he asked teasing.
I pulled away and slapped him lightly, "You idiot, I meant she found her dress, the dress" I repeated.
"She did?" he asked smiling.
"She most certainly did" I replied smiling back. "Promise you won't tell Emmett?"
"Scouts honour" he replied saluting me.
"She is going to look beautiful" I told him pleased he'd promised.
"I'm sure she will my love, but no one will ever be as beautiful as you" he said, kissing me.
"Thanks Mr Smooth" I giggled kissing him back.
We were soon interrupted by Jasper, Alice and Rose who joined us in the living room.
"Where's Emmett?" Rose asked noticing her fiancé wasn't in the room.
Edward shrugged, "He's around here somewhere" he replied.
A loud shout from the general vicinity of the stairs indicated where he was. Soon his bounding footsteps could be heard.
"You'll never guess what I just found" Emmett said, looking as excited as a child on Christmas morning.
"Probably not" Rose replied eyeing him suspiciously as he appeared to be hiding something behind his back.
"It's Steve!" he announced.
"What the F are you talking about?" Jasper asked not taking his eyes off the TV screen
"Steve" he repeated impatiently, "The monkey I got in Las Vegas." He whipped the toy out from behind his back and waved it at us.
I swear it looked even uglier than the first time I laid eyes on it.
"It's so weird, I found him shoved in a box at the back of my closet, wonder how he got there?" he asked, not really directing the question at anyone in particular.
I glanced at Rose who smirked at me before answering Emmett, "No idea babe."
"Ah well it doesn't matter now" he said grinning, "I've found him!"
"Oh yay" Rose muttered sarcastically.
I sniggered at her.
"He could be in our wedding party" Emmett told Rose.
"Are you kidding me?" she asked, "No freaking way Emmett Cullen."
"Ha! Gotcha!" he replied looking pleased with himself.
