I married Edward two months later in front of all of our friends and family. Now they were to by my family too. I loved having a family. It all still felt like it was going to disappear in front of me. I had been alone for so long.

The ceremony was beautiful if not over the top, but that was Alice. I wore a French gown with a long train and bell sleeves off the shoulders. My hair was loose and curly and I held a bouquet of sunflowers. Rosalie played the piano and Elezear walked me down the aisle after my maid of honor, Alice. Emmett stood next to Edward by the minister as his best man. The minister was a wise young man from Fairbanks.

I had eyes only for Edward on that day and he only for me. I managed to say "I will" at the appropriate moment and put the ring on Edwards finger. The minister ended with "As long as you both shall live." Then Edward kissed me. He was mine now. Forever.

We danced gracefully in the light of Alice's lanterns.

"I love you." He whispered.

"And I love you." I kissed him softly.

I danced with Carlisle and Emmett and Elezear. Elezear couldn't help himself but ask me questions about my very unique talent. Emmett made shameless fun of me because tonight was my wedding night. When I could stand no more questions or comments Edward swooped in and saved me. We danced together for a while longer.

"Where are we going?" Alice was tugging on my arm, pulling me toward the house.

"You aren't going to want to fly in that."

"Where am I flying to?"

"Edward has sworn me to secrecy." Alice laughed and led me upstairs.

Alice dressed me in high heeled brown leather boots, a light blue dress, and a brown leather jacket. I was astonished to realize that it was my old favorite jacket tailored to fit my new body.

"Alice?"

"Edward stole it after you died. It smells like you."

My human memories were blurred but I managed to recall my mother giving me the jacket for Christmas. She had died a few years ago and I missed her.

Alice skipped down the stairs with a black suitcase which Edward took. We ran to the car and were pelted with rice. Some of it was aimed too precisely, I was sure it was Emmett.

We sped to the Ted Stevens International Airport in Anchorage where we boarded a plane. I didn't pay attention to where he was taking me. Did it really matter? I was content to sit with his arm around me. He occasionally leaned over and kissed my hair or my cheek. I was finally not along. I was loved. It was amazing.

We got off another plane in Rio and got a cab to the harbor. Edward led me to a boat, a yacht more like. It was sleek black obviously built for speed. I smiled appreciatively. I liked fast things. I had a vague memory of a red motor cycle and Jacob Black. I wondered If he was still alive.

"Edward. What ever happened to Jacob Black?"

I knew he could hear me over the wind and the engine. We were slicing through the waves with ease. I would have made him let me drive if I knew where we were going.

"Jacob was at your funeral but as soon as he saw me he left after throwing mental blame at me which I deserved. He loved you Bella. When we visited Forks twenty years ago he hadn't aged. He spoke for the pack. He was careful never to think of you. That is the most I know of him."

"I am going to go back to Forks and kick his ass!" I growled. "How could he not tell you I was alive. I would have been saved fifty years of loneliness."

"He must think that becoming one of us is death."

"I hope he found happiness." I sighed.

I shook my head to clear the memories. I only wanted to think of Edward on our honeymoon. Edward and I had been saving ourselves consciously and unconsciously for our whole lives. I was finally not to breakable to truly love passionately.

I saw an island on the horizon. It was small as islands go but beautiful. As we got closer I saw the palm trees and the white beaches.

"Welcome to the Isle Esme Bella."

We pulled up to a dock and I jumped out of the yacht. I watched the stars as Edward tied the boat up. We walked through the trees to a big white house. Apparently the Cullens liked continuity in their dwellings.

Edward took our things inside and I took off my boots to walk in the sand. It felt warm under my feet. I walked toward the water. It looked so peaceful. I took off my clothes and hung them in a tree. I stepped into the warm water and watched the moonlight on its surface.

I heard Edward walk into the water. My back was turned to him and he came to me. He kissed my shoulder and my neck. I was electrified but I stood still as a statue letting myself feel. I hadn't done much feeling in the last fifty years. It was a long forgotten sensation.

"Hello Mrs. Cullen." He whispered.

That did it. I whirled around and crushed myself to him. I didn't know or car if we would ever stop loving each other.
