I don't Twilight, etc.

Thanks to my beta, Nikki!

Well, this is it. For now.

BPOV

One year after the proposal.

I sat at my desk, after a long day with patients, looking through my calendar. I had so much to do in the next few weeks since mine and Edward's wedding was coming up. Today, I had to run to the jeweler to pick up the bridesmaid's jewelry and the groomsman's watches, along with my dad's watch.

Rose is my maid of honor with Alice as a bridesmaid. Emmett is the best man and Carlisle a groomsman. We thought about having a larger wedding party but things just get to complicated going that way so we stuck with the simple since the rest of the wedding was going to be so grand. Yeah, I was having the wedding of every girl's dreams.

Edward and I both decided that we wanted to have the wedding in Chicago since I wanted it more upscale, and let's face it, Plymouth doesn't even compare to what Chicago has to offer. The wedding ceremony and reception is both being held at Patrick C. Haley Mansion and I couldn't wait. The grounds were beautiful and our ceremony is going to be held outdoors. I always dreamed of having a late spring wedding.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

"Come in," I said, assuming it was either Carlisle or one of the nurses.

"Hey," Carlisle said as he walked in.

"Hey." I smiled and sat up straighter.

"Rough day?" he asked and sat at one of the chairs across from my desk.

"Just busy, you know."

"Yeah, um, Edward called and said he would be home later than expected. The conference ran late and he still had to go sign the final contract at the mansion," he stated and gave me a tight smile. Edward had been gone all week at a medical conference in Chicago and I missed him. I nodded in Carlisle's direction and sighed. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, tired and I've had a headache for the past couple of days that doesn't want to go away." I shrugged and closed my planner. "Wedding stuff is keeping me really busy and on top of trying to find a house too."

"I bet. Not for much longer though." He smiled and stood to leave. "Will you be over for dinner?"

"No, I've got to run to the jeweler. Then I really just want to go home and pass out," I said and stood. I grabbed my bag, tossing all my crap inside of it so I could leave for the day.

"Okay, but if you don't feel well tomorrow don't worry about coming in. I can handle your patients."

"Alright. I'm sure I'll be fine though," I replied, following him out the door, and locked my office.

The office was open on Saturday's from nine until noon for general family planning or a few Well Woman Exams. I was sure that Carlisle could easily handle my patients but I think with a good night's rest I would fine to come in.

I drove to the jeweler's and when I walked in, the old man behind the counter greeted me warmly. Even though I've known him for as long as I can remember, it helped that Edward and I paid a pretty penny for all the stuff we bought from the store for the wedding. Alice and Rose's jewelry was all custom-made, as well as my wedding band and Edward's ring.

"Good evening, Miss Bella. I have everything ready to go right here," Old Man Jack said as he pulled a large tray from under the display cases. "I didn't want to wrap everything up until you saw the finished products."

"Thank you, I truly appreciate that." I smiled and waited for him to open the royal blue velvet boxes.

I gasped when I say Alice and Rose's jewelry. The pieces were beautiful and would look so good with their dresses. Jack opened the box that held Edward's ring and I grinned. I told Jack that I wanted Edward to have the shiniest damn ring in the world. I wanted everyone to know that he was taken and mine. I also said that I wanted the ring to have a few diamonds in the band. Jack did not disappoint. I looked at the watches and their engravings. The watches just had a simple message that said "Thank you. –Love, Edward and Bella."

"Everything looks perfect, Jack. Thank you so much," I said and gave him a small hug over the counter.

"Great! I'll get this stuff bagged up then. Oh, and tell Edward that the rest of things he wanted will be ready next week."

"What other things. I thought this was it?"

"Oh, he called the other day and said he wanted me to make a pair of earrings for his mother. I guess the other jewelry shop in Chicago fell through," Jack answered but I felt like he wasn't telling me the whole truth. I left it as that.

"Okay."

After he had all the pieces put into boxes and inside a large bag, Jack handed it to me and I was off. I went straight home and walked into the door, smelling delicious food. Sue must be over, I thought. Thank God for her or I don't think my dad would survive me leaving his home in less than two months. That is if Edward and I could ever agree on a damn house to buy.

"Baby girl, you're home early!" Dad shouted when he saw me come into the living room.

"Yeah, Edward is still not home and I'm dead tired." I gave him a kiss on the cheek, placing my bags down and plopping myself on the couch.

"I hope you're hungry. Sue is making a pot roast."

"Yes, I am starving."

"Hey, Bella," Sue said as she walked into the living room with a dish towel in her hand.

"Hi, Sue, it smells wonderful."

"Well, dinner is done and served, you two." She smiled and turned back around for the kitchen.

I shrugged out of my jacket, picking my stuff up, and rushed upstairs to my room, putting the stuff away. I washed up in a hurry and went back downstairs to eat dinner.

"So, have you had any luck on houses, Bella?" Sue asked.

"No. I find something perfect for Edward and I and he will find something wrong with it. I'm starting to think he doesn't want to live together. I'm almost ready to give up," I said in defeat.

"Baby girl, something will come up, I'm sure." Dad patted my hand that was on the table and grinned.

"Yeah, well, you can talk to Edward about it. I have one more house I want to look at and if he says 'no' then I'm done. He can find a house himself."

I finished eating dinner and then made my way upstairs. I changed into a pair of pajama pants and one of Edward's t-shirts. I grabbed my planner and laptop from my bag and then climbed into bed. I was just getting ready to pick up my phone when it rang.

"Hey, baby," I answered with a yawn.

"Hey. Are you tired?" Edward asked.

"Yeah. I have been all week. I miss you."

"I miss you too. I'm on my way home, so it won't be until about midnight that I get in. Do you want me to come over?"

"If you want. I'll be sleeping. Oh, hey, did you pick up the Christening gown for Ava?" I asked. That is one thing I wanted to make sure Edward didn't forget before he came home. Ava is Emmett and Rose's baby girl and soon-to-be mine and Edward's goddaughter.

"Yes, Bella. I picked up the gown, which cost a fortune by the way, I went and signed the caterer's contract, paid for all the rooms at the W, and approved of the silverware we will be eating with at the reception," he chuckled.

"Okay, I was just making sure. The baptism is on Sunday and she has to have the gown. And nothing is too expensive for that precious little girl," I said.

"Bella, she will wear it once, so yes it was expensive. Two hundred dollars for a baby's dress? That is ridiculous."

"Edward! The dress was hand-made with the finest fabrics, so no, it was not expensive. Just think of how cute she will look in it. You know as well as I do you she has you wrapped around her finger."

"Yeah, well, Rose better keep the damn thing on her all week so I get my money's worth."

"Oh, whatever," I laughed and groaned. This damn headache would not lighten up for anything. I rubbed my temple. "So, then everything seems to be taken care of for the wedding then. Thank you for doing that for me."

"No problem, baby. How are you feeling? Has your headache gone away?"

"Not yet. I think if I get some sleep, I'll be okay."

"Okay, well, I will be there as soon as I can. I'll let you go. I love you," he said and made a kissing sound over the phone.

"I love you too. See you in a while." I did the same back at him and then we hung up.

I opened my laptop and pulled up my email and saw nothing of importance except for confirmation of my appointment to look at the house next week. I turned off the laptop and set it on the floor. I opened my planner and began to check things off my "To Do List." I flipped through the calendar, seeing when my next dress fitting was and something got my attention. The date.

I slipped out of bed, putting on my coat and a pair of shoes, and grabbed my purse. I ran out to my car and quickly drove to Wal-Mart since it was the closest store to my house. Plus, with what I was wearing Wal-Mart was the best place to go looking the way I did. I got what I needed and hurried back home.

"Hey, where did you head off to in a hurry?" Dad asked as I rushed back into the house.

"I just had to get female products, Dad." I said and ran back to my room. I knew he wouldn't say anything else after that.

I sat on the edge of the bed and stared out the window. I had to know. I stood taking the box with me and went to the restroom. I made sure the door was locked so my dad or Sue wouldn't bust in. I took a deep breath and then took care of business. I waited…waited…waited some more…and then looked. I tossed everything back into the box and went back to my room and lied down. I willed sleep to come because I was exhausted but it just wouldn't. I laid there for hours until I saw lights flash across my bedroom, knowing Edward was here. I heard him come in the door and slowly creep up the noisy stairs. He carefully opened my bedroom door and then locked it behind him. I heard him shed out of his clothes and slowly slipped into the bed, behind me.

"I'm here, Bella," he whispered in my ear after he kissed my neck. He pulled me against his chest and my hand automatically went to rest on top of his.

"I glad you're home," I said quietly.

"Me too." He wrapped his legs with mine and then sighed. Things were quiet as he got comfortable.

"Edward, I'm pregnant." I couldn't not tell him right away.

"What?"

"I'm pregnant," I said softly and tightened my hold on his hand.

"Hmph. Okay. How?"

I shook my head. "You really need to quit hanging out with my dad. You sounded just like him when."

"Oh, sorry."

I untangled myself from him and sat up in bed, turning on a small lamp next to my bed. "That's all you have to say? Okay? How? Sorry?"

"Things are still processing, Bella." He sat up and rubbed his face. "Okay, so you're pregnant. Great. It's sooner than we wanted but I'm okay with it. You aren't mad are you? I mean, I thought you were taking the pill."

"I am taking the pill," I sighed. "It's just with the wedding coming up and stuff, taking it regularly sometimes slipped my mind. I told you I was bad at taking them a long time ago but you are the one that usually reminds me about it." Two years ago I didn't have my IUD replaced and just went on pills. Leaving the IUD out would give my body time to adjust and when Edward and I were ready for children it wouldn't take as long to get pregnant.

"So, when did you find out?"

"A few hours ago. I realized that I haven't had my period for two months, going on three. It explains the headaches and tiredness. I haven't had morning sickness so that could be because of the pills, I occasionally take…"

Edward and laughed and pulled me to lay back down with him. "Pills you occasionally take? When was the last time you took them regularly? Like do you know how far along you are?"

I lay on my back and looked up at him as he rested his head on his hand with a bent elbow. "I guess it would have been about two months ago that I started to miss a pill here or there. So I'm probably about six weeks or so."

"Alright, so we are going to have a fall baby. It's better than a Christmas baby. I'd hate to have a birthday in December."

"Yeah, I guess a fall baby is in our works," I sighed.

"Hey, what's the matter?"

"Well, the facts that we are getting married in a few weeks, we still live with our parents, every house I look at and love you shoot down, and we have a baby on the way. I'm getting a little stressed. You seem like this is no big deal."

"It is no big deal. We have some time to get our house and get things ready for the baby. Let's take one thing at a time. The first being the wedding. Everything will be fine, just try to relax, okay?" he leaned down and kissed me softly. "I missed you all week."

I ran my fingers through his hair and smiled. "I missed you too. A lot, actually. I think your dad was getting a little tired of me and my snippiness," I laughed.

"Damn, the hormones are already kickin' in, huh?" Edward teased and shifted to lie between my legs. He didn't put all of his weight on me but laid his head right above my stomach, holding me. We laid there quietly for a while and I gently massaged his head. "Thank you, Bella."

"For what?" I asked and looked down at him as he looked up to me.

"Lots of things; trusting me, waiting for me all those years to ask you to marry me, saying yes to be my wife, and best of all being the mother of my child. I love you, so much." Edward lifted my shirt up a bit and kissed right below my belly button before he moved up my body and kissed my lips.

"You're welcome, Edward, but I'd have waited a hundred years for you to ask me to marry you. I couldn't have a better man to father my children or spend the rest of my life with. You're it for me," I said and pressed my lips to his. We deepened our kiss and let tongues softly explore.

"Let me make love to you," Edward whispered against my lips.

I breathed a "yes" against his and soon he stripped me of my clothing and I tugged his briefs off. Edward kneeled between my legs, running his hands up and down my thighs softly and just simply admiring my body. It didn't make me feel self-conscience at all but more loved. Maybe in a few years, after we had more kids and parts of my body were stretched and flabby, I would get embarrassed but now I just cherish Edward's love for me. As Edward grabbed hold of his length with one hand, aligning himself to me, he leaned over my body, taking my hands into his above my head, and then captured my lips as he slowly, effortlessly pushed into me. We entwined our fingers together as my legs moved to hitch over his hips. Edward softly rocked back and forth into me as we kissed, whispered how good it felt to be so close together, moaned and panted against each other's bare, sweaty skin. The energy between us was intense and gradually we coaxed our releases forth. Edward flipped us over so I was lying on top of him as we caught our breath. His fingers grazed my back causing me to shiver slightly.

Eventually, I could feel my eyes becoming heavy, so I moved off of Edward and to my side of the bed. Edward curled behind me and held me close.

"So are we waiting until after the wedding to tell everyone?" he mumbled against my shoulder.

"Yeah, it's probably best," I sleepily said.

"Okay."

Sleep quickly took over.

Wedding Day

I woke to a crying baby in the room and didn't understand where it was coming from since I haven't had the baby yet. When I opened my eyes, I realized where I was… In Rose and Emmett's hotel room.

"Emmett, get Ava," Rose mumbled next to me and even slapped my arm.

The guys had all stayed at Edward's parent's house here in Chicago while we girls were staying in the hotel since it was easier to get ready here for the wedding.

I groaned and turned over, pushing Rose. "Rose, Emmett's not here. You know I would get up and get her but she wants your boobs to suck on, not mine."

"Huh?" Rose slowly woke up and stumbled out of bed to get Ava from the playpen she slept in. I half watched as she got Ava changed and then settled back into bed to feed her. Rose, still not being a morning person, whipped her shirt off and let Ava have at it. Ava knew what to do and didn't seem to mind that her mom was pretty much passing back out. I sat up in bed, bringing my legs up to my chest and resting my head on top of them and watched, in a non-pervy way. No one knew about me being pregnant except Edward, of course. I briefly wondered if breast feeding Ava ever bothered Rose. I may be an OB/GYN and have to tell mother's what to expect when they have a baby but it's a different feeling when you're the one about to have your first baby. Ava was going to town but then saw me, unlatching from Rose, and started to talk to me. I grinned and told her "good morning."

"Oh no, Miss Thang, you finish eating." Rose opened her eyes and got Ava to latch back on. Rose looked at me then yelped. "Little girl, that hurt. She bit me."

"Does she do it often?" I asked.

"Now that she has been teething more, yes. Emmett suggested we start giving her a bottle but I don't want to lose that connection with her yet."

"I bet it would give Emmett a chance to feed her though. It's not like she will be drinking the bottle for long, right?"

"Are you kidding? Emmett is usually the one that gets up every morning and gets her attached to my boob," she laughed. "I just lay there and turn whatever way he tells me. I'm still not a great morning person, Bella. So, he gets his time to feed her. Plus, he gets to look at my tits every morning so he is more reluctant to put her on a bottle. The only reason he said that is because he doesn't want Ava to bite a nipple off when she gets more teeth."

I laughed and shook my head. "Men."

"Have you and Edward talked about having kids?" she asked.

"Of course."

"So?"

"It will be here before we know it," I said, knowing it was so true, and that there was more meaning to those words.

"So you two are going to try right away?"

"Yeah, pretty much. I hope we find a house first though. I can't believe when we get back next week we are going to either be living at my dad's house or at Esme's. It's just wrong."

"Yeah, that sucks. I'm sure you will find something though. I'm sure Edward just wants to find the perfect house for both of you," Rose encouraged.

"I hope you're right." I sighed and stretched to get out of bed. "I suppose I should get in the shower. Esme and Alice should be here soon for breakfast."

"Hey, you okay? You seem a little… I don't know… worried…too worried for someone getting married today. You aren't second guessing this are you?" She picked up Ava and began to burp her.

I laughed. "I am in no way second guessing marrying Edward. I haven't been surer about something in my life. There are just other things on my mind, I guess." I shrugged and climbed out of bed.

"Okay, but you know you can talk to me, right? It doesn't matter that I'm married to Edward's brother, I'm still your best friend and family."

"I know, Rose. I promise things are fine. More than fine between Edward and I, if that is what you think is bothering me." I grabbed the small bag I brought and headed to the bathroom to get ready. I turned the shower on to warm and undressed before I remembered I needed to take my prenatal vitamin. I took the package out of my bag and took the pill. I took the things I needed to shower with out of my bag and then got in.

"Hey, I gotta pee." I heard Rose say as she opened the bathroom door.

"Okay." I was rinsing my hair when Rose flushed the toilet and made her way to the sink to wash her hands.

"Isabella Marie Swan, you little bitch!" Rose shouted.

I wiped my face and then peeked out the shower curtain. "What did you call me?"

Rose turned to me, holding the damn prenatal vitamin box with a grin. "You're pregnant! Why didn't you tell me?"

"Damn it. Hold on. First go put a shirt on so I can take you seriously and let me finish showering," I said and shut the curtain. I quickly finished up and then wrapped a towel around me to go talk to Rose. She put a shirt on and was sitting in the small living room area of the room. I sat down with her and smiled.

"Edward and I were going to wait to tell everyone after the wedding. We wanted to focus on one thing at a time," I confessed.

"Are you happy about it? You seem to be hiding everything pretty well."

"Oh God, yes, I'm happy about it. We are happy about it. It's sooner than we wanted but we really were going to start trying after the wedding. Edward and I discussed me going off the pill a month before the wedding to get things going, you know."

"Yeah, you know how hard it was for Emmett and me to get pregnant." Rose looked at Ava with a smile. "Well, I am happy for you. You will be a wonderful mother."

"Thank you, Rose, but first I better become a wife," I joked and then went to put on clothes before Alice and Esme came to the room.

Things after breakfast went by in a blur. I turned this way and that while Alice, Esme, and Rose worked on me. Alice did my make-up, Rose my hair, and Esme made sure my dress and final look was perfect. I was thankful for all their help and when I looked in the mirror, I began to get teary-eyed. I did look perfect and for the first time in a really long time, I wished I had my mother by my side before my dad walked me down the aisle to marry the man of my dreams. It could have just been my hormones. Esme quickly pulled me into a hug and told me not to cry since we didn't have time to fix the make-up. It was just what I needed and I hugged her back. She may be Edward's mom but I knew I could talk to her about anything as much as I would my own mother.

My dad came to my room and said it was time to hit the road. We had a short drive to the mansion where the wedding and reception were taking place. We all climbed into the limo and Esme had a panic attack when my dress got a speck of dirt on it. One wouldn't even be able to see it unless you got down on the ground and looked at my train with a magnifying glass. I told her to get in the car and calm down.

Once we arrived at the venue, Rose, Alice, and Esme exited first. Things were right on schedule and the guest and Edward were just waiting for our arrival. My dad helped me out and Esme gave one last once-over and then was escorted to her seat.

"Well, baby girl, this is it. You sure you don't want to live with me forever?" my dad asked.

"Well, I'm sure I'll be living with you for a little while longer, seeing as how Edward has yet to find us a house," I laughed. "But I'm sure, Dad. I love Edward and you know he will take care of me."

"I know. I just feel like yesterday you were a baby…" he took a deep breath and looked away, wiping at his eyes. "My baby girl. It has been just you and me."

"Dad, you will always be the first man I've loved. Don't forget that," I sighed. "Now, don't make me cry."

"Oh, okay. Come on, I'm sure Edward is chomping at the bit to see you." Dad helped me pull my veil forward and then held his arm for me to take.

We stood in front of the double doors that led us outside to where vows would be exchanged. The traditional wedding march began to play and then two gentlemen smiled and nodded at us before opening the doors. The guest were all standing and waiting for us to walk down the aisle. Dad pulled me a bit to begin walking. I held onto my bouquet tightly and leaned into my dad as we made our way to where Edward stood. I didn't pay much attention to all the people to the left or right of me. All I looked at was Edward's beaming smile.

The music stopped and all the stood between me and Edward was my dad. Father Joseph asked who was giving me away and my dad replied. He let go of my arm, pulled my veil back, gave me a kiss on the cheek and a whispered "I love you," and then placed my hand in Edward's.

The wedding ceremony was as traditional as an outdoor Catholic ceremony could be. Once we were pronounced husband and wife, Edward pulled me to him and gave me a soft, loving kiss. He pulled back and we stood for a moment, smiling like idiots at each other. We turned to our clapping guest and walked down the aisle together, hand-in-hand.

Everything went down without a hitch. The reception was beautiful and Edward and I had lots of fun, mingling with all our family and friends. Once toasts and dinner was finished, the wedding party was introduced and Edward and I had the first dance. The bouquet was tossed, the garter thrown, and the cake cut. I shared a tearful father-daughter dance with my dad before Edward stepped in. Yup, I was definitely blaming the hormones for the crying.

"Are you happy?" Edward asked as we swayed to the music.

"More than you know," I smiled as he wiped a few tears from my cheeks.

"You ready to get out of here? I want to go make love to my wife."

"Mmmhmm… and I'd like to go make love to my husband." As Edward leaned down and kissed me, camera clicks and flashes surrounded the room. Pretty much every time we kissed or gazed into each other's eyes it happened.

"Good," he said with a grin and took my hand. "Shall we Mrs. Cullen?"

"We shall, husband," I said, and we walked to the DJ booth so we could give our thanks and say goodbye.

We gave hugs and kisses to our family as we made our way to the limo. I was definitely eager to go back to the hotel for the night and then leave for our honeymoon in the morning. Edward was keeping it a secret from me and it honestly didn't bother me that much that I didn't know where we were going. I was just happy to be with him.

The limo driver had the car door open for us and everyone stood at the front of the mansion to wave us off. I was just about to slide into the back seat when I heard Esme shout.

"Go make us grandbabies!" She gave Edward and me a thumb up and Carlisle just laughed.

I looked to my dad with Sue by his side and all he did was laugh along with Carlisle.

"Should we tell them we're pregnant, Bella?" Edward asked.

"Might as well. Then they can have the next week and a half to go nuts while we are gone," I said and fully turned to the crowd and leaned into Edward.

"Sorry to tell you this, Mom, but Bella and I aren't giving you a honeymoon baby," he said and Esme looked like she wanted to cry. I elbowed Edward and laughed. "Bella is already pregnant! Okay, talk to you all in a week!"

We quickly climbed into the limo and it everyone was silent for a few seconds before we heard the shouting. The limo driver shut the door and Edward rolled the window down and we just waved, not saying anything more.

I couldn't remember ever being this happy. I was married to the most amazing man, we were starting a new life together, and we were going to have a baby. Life doesn't get better than that.

Some of you might be disappointed that I didn't go through all the baby stuff but I will. I will do it in out-takes/future-takes. This probably the order that the out-takes/future-takes will occur so look out for them.

1. Bella and Edward's Baby Cullen

2. Rose/Emmett outtake of when they have their baby.

3. Bella and Edward playing with a few toys she got from the party

4. Story behind Esme's ringtone

5. Charlie and Sue outtake on when Bella and Edward walk in on them.

My blog will eventually have pics of the wedding stuff.
