I do not own twilight, new moon, or eclipse

This story takes place after eclipse...

Chapter 1

I was standing in the mirror examining every inch of my wedding gown, make-up (courtesy of Alice), and hair. I took in my full image, the satin dress the with vintage lace, the veil that flowed over top of it, and of course my death strapped shoes that Alice picked out for me. As I lifted up my dress to examine my white leather, inch high heel(because Alice wouldn't let me get anything less than that), strapy shoes that I called death traps, all I thought about was what had happened in the past month in a half when I told Charlie about Edward and I getting married.

I walked nervously into the house with Edward at my side the whole time. Us hand in hand. Charlie was on the couch feet sprawled over the edge of the arm chair when we approached him. He looked worried that something was wrong with me and I knew that my face was a dead give away.

"Hey dad." I said approaching him with cation as Edward and I stood casually in front of him.

"What's up Bells?"

"Uhhh... well, ummm... dad Edward and I have something to tell you." Charlie gave a look as I knew was the 'she's pregnant' look. I tried to ignore it and waited for his response.

"Go ahead and tell me then." he said blankly.

"Well you see dad, Edward and I love each other very much ..." he started to sit up on the couch and I paused but then continued, "well you see Edward and I are getting..." Charlie straightened his posture. I struggled for words to get this out correctly, Edward squeezing my hand to show that he was with me all the way, I sighed, "Edward and I are getting married." I was glad that was over with.

Charlie looked furious, but his face composed itself as he started to speak. "Bella ," he sighed, "what can I tell you? I know you love Edward, but please think this over. Don't you think your too young? Shouldn't you wait a few more years?"

I twirled my fingers of my free hand around as I spoke not looking into his eyes, "I love him, dad. Please accept that fact. If Edward and I think that we are ready then why can't you deal with that fact?" I looked into his old aging eyes now.

He started to get angry, "Isabella, I don't want you to get hurt!" his voice grew louder as he spoke. "Do you want to end up like your mother and I? Don't you at least want to settle in college?"

"I am eighteen dad! I think I can stand on my own." I realized I was standing now Edward at my side.

"Bella are you ready to start your life that young?"

"Why can't you just be happy for me?" tears threatening to run down my face.

"I am happy for you, Bella. Don't you see that? It's your mother that your gonna have to convince not me." Charlie smiled gathering me into a hug. Edward let my hand go. As Charlie turned to Edward I realized that he had been quite this whole time and Edward was the one who helped me proceed with my words.

"You take care of my girl now." Charlie said to Edward.

"I promise you that." Edward stated in the most beautiful way.

I hugged my dad again and then Edward. All I had to do next was deal with Renee.

We went to Edward's house after we spoke with Charlie. I was so nervous I wasn't sure if I could even bring myself to dial my mother's number. Alice met us at the door to the Cullen's house. "Your mother will learn to accept your decision." she stated clearly trying to get me through my state of being worried. I knew Alice had seen her reaction so that meant that I had called Renee.

I decided to get this over with and went up to Edwards room with him at my side for comfort. He took his long white hands and held my face between them and we sat on the large bed and kissed me softly. "Don't worry she WILL learn to accept us getting married." he promised.

I shook my head and started to dial my mother's number.

"Hello?" my mother's familiar voice brought a smile to my face.

"Hi mom!"

"Bella!!" she exclaimed.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine." I lied. "Actually I wanted to tell you something."

"Yes?" she asked suspicious. Why does everyone have to expect the worst? I asked myself.

"Well I wanted to let you know that.." I looked into Edward's topaz eyes and sighed as he began to rub soothing circles on the back of my hand. "Edward and I are getting married." I said as Edward gave me a wry smile.

Silence was all I heard. "Mom?" I asked. Still, silence. "Please say something."

"Bella this is absurd! I can't let you do this." she said coldly. "I can't have you end up like me! I was your age you know?"

"Yes mom I know. But I love Edward."

"That's how I felt about your father when I was your age. Everything was fine and then ..." she stopped, " now look at us."

I felt bad. Charlie was right. Renee wasn't going to take this well.

"I except your chose that you have made, but I am not happy about it." I was surprised at what she had said.

"Thank you." was all I could manage.

"Now I am expecting an invitation. So I better get one." she joked happily. I was relieved. "I gotta go now. I am going to tell Phil." I could hear a smile in her voice.

"I love you."

"I love you too Bella." and I hung up.

I was disrupted of my thoughts by a cold touch on my shoulder. "You look beautiful." Alice said delighted by her transformation on me.

I smiled in delight as I looked at the image reflecting form the mirror. "I know. You did a wonderful job I can't thank you enough."

"I think it is the blue eyeshadow that brought out your face. Edward said he loved that color on you."

I couldn't help but blush at that fact. "I believe in less than an hour I will be a Cullen!" I exclaimed.

"Not only a Cullen but my sister." Alice said gathering me into a hug.

Alice insisted on putting a hint of red blush on my cheeks to cover up when I actually did blush. And of course all of the make-up was water proof. Rosalie put my hair in lose curls and pulled half of it up in five rhinestone clips to keep most of my hair out of my face. Alice was my bridesmaid and she wore a faded pink dress that came down to the floor, her short hair clipped up in a side part, and white high heeled shoes that I would defiantly break my leg in.

She gathered me into another hug just as a faint knock on the door came. We were in Alice's room because Alice wouldn't let me sleep with Edward at my side because she claimed it was bad luck for the groom to see the bride before the wedding so I was tired from Edward not being with me and me tossing and turning, but of course Alice fixed the purple under my eyes with her genius make-up.

Rosalie came into the room wearing a bright red dress, knee length with black high heels, her hair straight with a side part, and wearing no make-up because her features were already beautiful. She was probably prettier than me and I was the wedding girl! She came to me and enclosed me with a hug. "Congratulations." she said smiling.

Just then my dad walked into the room. "Wedding is going to start!" Alice exclaimed with a bright felt face as Rosalie went back out of the door.

"You look wonderful Bells." my dad said gathering me into one of his awkward hugs

"Thanks dad."

"Renee is waiting downstairs." he said pulling me by the arm leading me downstairs into Alice's new car with my balling mother, Rosalie, my dad, Alice, and me.
