Chapter 20: An Intimate Ceremony and a Untimely Tragedy
"Good Morning beautiful." Carlisle whispered in Esme's ear as he placed a tray of food on her bed side table. "Good Morning Darling." Esme replied happily as opened her eyes to kiss Carlisle "How is Bubba Bree." Carlisle asked Esme while rubbing her six and half month belly "Good very good loves her Daddy talking to her." Esme replied as she played with her fiancée's blonde locks "Oh how I love you my sweet and beautiful Esme." Carlisle said as he placed the tray on her lap "You treat me to good Carlisle only Queens and Princesses deserve this special treatment." Esme said smiling as Carlisle cut up a piece of waffle and feed it to her. "You deserve to be treated the very best after being treated like trash all your life you deserve to be my princess." Carlisle replied as Esme sipped on her hot chocolate. The pair sat together on their bed and ate breakfast together kisses were shared as well as the food both looking at each other with the undying emotion of true love Carlisle played with Esme's curls and kissed her cheek as she did the dishes "Now my love we have a big day I planned for us so let us getting ready." Carlisle whispered in her ear "Ok." Esme whispered kissing his cheek and heading to the bathroom to get ready.
Esme stood in front of the mirror in a cream knee length dress that Carlisle had told her were for a special occasion she fixed the pins in her hair and turned to see Carlisle staring "You look absolutely breath taking my beautiful Darling." He spoke in a husky whisper "You look stunning my husband to be." Esme replied commenting on his casual white button shirt and black slacks "Are we ready to go?" Esme asked as she did not know what Carlisle had planned for her "Your chariot awaits." Carlisle replied taking her hand kissing it and taking her to their car he opened her door and went around the side to the drivers side and got in to start the car and the two were now off to Carlisle's very special surprise.
Esme smiled to herself and had her hand in Carlisle's while they drove to Carlisle's secret location. Soon he pulled up to very secluded park where a gazebo was placed and a man waited on his own. "My love I know that you would of wanted Alice and Jasper here but because Ali has been put on bed rest I thought you would of wanted an intimate ceremony." Carlisle said watching his fiancée's expression Esme began to sniffle "This is so romantic Carlisle. Oh how I love you, you are one very special man my love." Esme replied back and kissed him multiple times on the cheek, forehead and lips.
Carlisle picked up her favourite flowers and handed them to her Esme smiled as they walked to the gazebo surrounded by the sights and sounds of the serene atmosphere and scenery, they made it to the priest who smiled at the young couple both looking very radiant and very much in love Carlisle held Esme's hand as they stood in front of each as the priest began his speech of the importance of marriage and how very sacred it is.
"Carlisle do you take Esme Platt to be your wife to love each other to hold each other in sickness and in health, for better for worse for as long as you both shall live?" the priest asked Carlisle who immediately replied with a multiple "Yes." Esme smiled and giggled as Carlisle did probably due to fact that one of the wrestlers they watch on WWE does the same thing. The priest now turned to Esme, and began his speech to her as well Esme too replied with multiple answer of yes both smiled and listen to priest as he congratulated both of them and then said "You may now kiss the bride." Carlisle smiled and kissed Esme with loving passion "Thank you so very much." Carlisle and Esme said the priest the priest nodded and wished them all the happiness in the world.
One week later...
Carlisle and Esme were bed half asleep when Esme's cell phone went off. It was Dr Chelsea Renata.
"Hello is this Mrs Esme Cullen." The doctor asked in a hoarse voice and Esme immediately knew something was wrong.
"Yes this is she." She answered back
"you do know a Mr and Mrs Whitlock I'm sure of it." The doctor asked
"Yes their are our best friends." Esme replied feeling a pit in her stomach
"I'm sorry to inform you that Mr and Mrs Whitlock were in a car accident on the way to the hospital neither of them made it fortunately their unborn baby survived and is now in the nursery as you already know you are her guardians I need you come to the hospital as soon as you can I'm deeply sorry for your loss." The doctor finished as Esme inhaled sharply tears streaming down her face as Carlisle protectively cuddled her.
"We will be there right away." Esme replied "Thank you." She continued before hanging up the phone as Carlisle got ready Esme simply put on her dressing gown and the pair hand in hand went to the hospital. In the nursery Dr Renata held a beautiful baby girl. Esme smiled gently and held the tiny miracle "Hello baby Emily don't worry Carlisle and I are here you can call us mummy and daddy if want to we loved your parents." Esme cooed as sat in the rocking chair on Carlisle's lap.
