Chapter 18

*** 5 years later***

Still Bella POV

I smiled to myself thinking about my life. How I met Edward and the kids, and how my life turned out. I had three wonderful children, a wonderful fiancée, and a beautiful family.

I remembered how Edward proposed. It was the third best day of my life, after my kid's births.

***Flashback***

"Bells, I asked Alice to take the kids for the night, so it is just us." The kids had just turned four and Edward and I had been really stressed out about school. Edward was about to finish his last year at collage and was soon going to medical school. And I had just gotten my first full time job, it started next week and I still didn't know what we were going to do with the kids. Edward and I still didn't have enough money to put the kids in daycare, but we had to get someone to take care of them. "So you ready to go?" Edward asked me.

"Go where? It is just the same if we stay here." I said back.

"Well I don't know about you, but we don't get to go out very often, and I think we should make this special." He said getting his coat and helping me put mine on.

We pulled up to the park where we used to go on dates when I was still pregnant. I got out of the car, and walked over and sat on the bench where we had our first- well second kiss. Our first real one.

He got down on one knee and said to me, "Bella, when I first laid eyes on you I was shocked. I knew Emmett had a little sister, but I didn't know that his sister was you. The most beautiful person I have ever laid my eyes on. Bella you are me, you are my air, you are everything. So today I sit here, as nervous as hell. And I am asking you, One simple question, one question that will either make me the happiest man on earth, or make me drown in my own tears. So I ask you these simple words, will you marry me?" Edward asked me. Before he asked me the question my mouth fell open and I was crying. I didn't think I was able to talk so I simply nodded. He leaned toward me when I leaned toward him. We shared a long passionate kiss.

When we were done I looked down and gasped, "Edward! How much did you spend on this ring?!" the ring was a beautiful sapphire blue with little diamonds around it.

When he answered, "nothing. it was my mothers." I was touched. He gave me his mother's ring, "Do you like it?" he asked

"No, I love it." I automatically answered and climbed into his lap as if were made just for me, "just as I love you."

*** End flashback ***

Then I looked down. Positive. Shit. What am I going to do? Well first I had to tell Edward, but I would wait until after the wedding. I wasn't sure how I was going to tell him, but I knew it had to be good.

The wedding was in 2 days. 2 days! I have my dress fitting tomorrow and a bachelorette party. Wait, I can't go to the party, I have to call Alice.

"Alice." I sighed when she picked up the phone. "I can't go to the party."

"What! NO! You are going! This is your bachelorette party!" she screamed at me.

"Alice I can't go."

"Why not!" she demanded

"Because I just can't" I told her

"Fine!" she hung up.

A few minutes later the doorbell rang. "Come in!" I yelled towards the door. I heard the door open and close but I didn't hear anyone come inside. "Hello?" I called no answer. "Hello?" I called again. Then something jumped on my back, I screamed while they put something over my eyes and tied my hands got down and pushed me to their car. I got into the trunk without trouble, if I don't try to get away, maybe they won't hurt me or my unborn child.

The person opened the trunk to let me out and she undid my blindfold and hands. "Alice!" I complained, "You scared me!"

"Now you can go to the party!" she said.

"No Alice, I can't!"

"what something is more important than your wedding?!"

"No Alice! I'm… Alice I can't tell you!"

"Why not!" she pouted.

"Because… I just can't!" 'I have to tell Edward first.' I added into my head.

"Please!" she begged using the puppy dog eyes that she knew that I couldn't resist.

"Alice! That's not fair!" I complained.

"But Bella! I'm just trying to make you happy!"

"Alice if you want to make me happy than… first of all, tell me what the party is."

"But Bella! That is maid of honor code!" she all but shouted at me.

"Then I can't go Alice!"

"What does this have to do with where we are going?"

"Alice, I will tell you if you promise not to tell ANYONE. Not even Jasper!" Jasper is her first serious boyfriend, in fact soon to be fiancé. Jasper came up to me and asked me how Alice always dreamed to be proposed to. I told him and wished him luck.

"Fine!"

"Alice, I'm Pregnant." I said softly

"Again Bella! I thought you knew better!" she paused for one second before added laughing, "Bella! I'm just joking! You are going to be married in 2 days! Congratulations! Have you told Edward yet?"

"No Alice. It's not his." He face went pale, "Gosh! Alice where's your sense of humor!" I said laughing.

"That wasn't funny!" she said but she was smiling so I knew I was forgiven.

"Okay before this gets out of hand, it is his, I have not told him yet, I am trying to find a good way, we are both really stressed out about Edward's finals that are coming up so I don't know when to tell him."

"Okay, but you're still having your party tomorrow."

The bachelorette party

"Alice! Will you please tell me where we are going?" I complained as she was my best friend in my bridesmaids who consisted of Alice, Rose, Angela, and Jessica. The last wasn't even really in the friend category, but when she got her invitation she called me to ask if she was a bridesmaid. I didn't want to be rude so I said 'yes', Jessica didn't really add much to the party except she wanted it to be about her until Alice said, 'Shut up Jessica! This night is about Bella! Not about how Mike almost kissed you last week!" to her I was forever grateful.

"No! We are almost there anyway!" she responded sharply. We arrived at a small cottage in the woods and Alice said, "This is my mother's cottage, this is where my father proposed to her, so she offered to let us use it for this special occasion."

We all walked inside then and I looked at Alice who winked at me. "Everyone, there will be no drinking at this party! We have to make sure Bella is ready for her wedding at 10 in the morning tomorrow. I repeat NO DRINKING!" she called out to everyone.

That night was quick weather it was fall asleep early rule or just me having a lot of fun. But when I woke up at 6 to Alice shaking me awake I started to hyperventilate. I was getting married today. Now I was Bella swan, tonight I would be Bella Cullen. I would never be the same Bella Swan again.

I am righting chapter 19 now, so if you want me to post it sooner, you should review... it would make my day!
