Chapter 1: A wedding and a honeymoon
Alice P.O.V
I couldn't believe this was finally happening.
Here I was, standing in the bedroom staring at myself in the tall, oval mirror.
My lips curled up into a smile as I stared at myself.
The top part of the dress was covered in a fine layer of glitter that reflected the light causing a delicate shimmer.
Above my waist, the dress hugged my body, perfectly accentuating my upper curves.
Below my waist, the dress flared out into a full, princess-style ball gown skirt.
My make-up was light but it honestly looked good.
Rosalie had done an amazing job.
My eye shadow was light but sparkly, there was a faint blush on my cheeks and my lips were a pale pink.
I turned slightly so I could see the back of my dress.
As I turned, I noticed a faint shimmer come from my face and I realized Rosalie had used foundation.
I sighed.
If I were a vampire like Jasper, I wouldn't need foundation or any sort of make-up.
I took a deep breath and regained my focus.
I would be like Jasper soon enough.
He had promised to turn me after the wedding.
Well, after our honeymoon actually.
"You need to put this on," Bella said, walking over with my veil.
She carefully pushed the clip into my short hair and stepped back.
"You look beautiful," she said with a warm smile.
"Thanks," I replied quietly.
I didn't believe Bella though.
I could never be as beautiful as her.
Not that I paid much attention but she had a perfect figure, perfect features, perfect hair; everything about her was perfect.
"Alice, you know you're beautiful right?" Bella asked after a moment of silence.
"I'm not as beautiful as you," I muttered.
I felt her cold hand under my chin as she lifted my face.
"Alice, you are beautiful. Don't ever say otherwise. Please, you're making me feel bad."
"Sorry Bella. You actually sounded like Jasper just then."
Bella smiled and laughed slightly.
Her bell-like echo filled the room and echoed off the walls.
"Are you ready?" Carlisle asked from the doorway.
I turned around and nodded.
Carlisle would be walking me down the aisle as my father thought I was dead.
I didn't care though.
He wanted me dead anyway.
I stood in the large entertainment area as I waited for the music to start.
When it did, Carlisle and I slowly walked down the aisle.
I smiled brightly as Jasper's eyes widened.
His face quickly returned to normal and his dazzling smile graced his lips.
When we reached the alter Carlisle placed my hand in Jasper's and walked around to stand on the other side due to the fact he was playing the minister.
I looked up and stared at Jasper, my eyes locking with his gold ones.
I felt the tears in my eyes but refused to let them fall.
If I did, Jasper may think the wrong thing.
I wasn't listening to Carlisle as my thoughts were completely focused on Jasper.
I was pulled back to reality as Jasper clearly spoke the words "I do."
"And do you, Alice Brandon, take Jasper Whitlock Hale to be your husband? To love and to hold, for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health?"
"I do," I said as the tears of joy slowly fell.
"Well then, I pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride," Carlisle said, smiling.
Jasper smiled and quickly closed the distance between us.
His lips met mine and my body was immediately filled with many emotions.
One of his hands carefully rested on my cheek while he placed the other on the small of my back.
I threw my arms around his neck and kissed him back eagerly.
I heard someone clear their throat and Jasper slowly pulled back.
I stretched up on my toes to make the kiss last as long as possible.
When I could no longer reach, I carefully stood properly again and turned with Jasper as he held our hands as high as he could.
We slowly walked down into the crowd and I was immediately embraced in hugs.
I recognised the cold temperature of my vampire family.
"Congratulations," Esme whispered as she wrapped her arms around me.
Emmett didn't say a word but his hug said everything.
I was lucky he was able to control his strength.
I felt the warmer temperatures of the few humans that were here and then I felt the blazing hot embrace of my good friend Jacob.
I knew he was a wolf and I knew he felt upset being here but I was glad he came.
Jacob was never one for romance but I knew he wanted to find love.
He did have a small crush on Bella but Edward quickly ended that with a glare.
I hoped Jacob found love soon.
He truly deserved a woman who could love him with everything he deserved.
He had loved me once but he gave up when I started dating Jasper.
If Jasper wasn't in my life, I would be more than happy to have Jacob as my husband.
"May I have this dance?" Jasper asked, bowing slightly and holding out his hand.
I giggled and nodded, taking his hand.
"You have an amazing laugh Mrs. Hale," Jasper whispered.
I smiled.
"I may have to get used to that."
"Take all the time you need."
I laughed again and placed my head on Jasper's chest as we slowly swayed to the music.
As the night passed, I found myself dancing with Carlisle, Emmett and Edward as well as my amazing husband Jasper.
They were all graceful.
They never faltered.
I, on the other hand, continuously found myself stumbling or standing on their toes.
"Ugh! I'm such a klutz!" I half shouted as I once again, stepped on Edward's foot.
"It's alright. You're not hurting me."
"So? I'm still a klutz that can't dance."
Edward sighed and settled on gently swaying to the music.
I finished my dance with Edward and made my way back to Jasper.
As I danced and kissed Jasper, people began taking pictures once again.
I was surprised when Jasper and all of the Cullen's actually ate a piece of the cake.
Jasper, noticing the look of shock on my face, lowered his lips to my ear and whispered "We have to fit in."
His southern twang sent shivers down my spine and his dazzling smile caused my heart to pick up speed.
The night continued fairly normally and soon, it was time to leave for the honeymoon.
I was pulled inside by Bella and Esme as soon as Jasper said we would be leaving in a few moments.
"Here, this will be more comfortable," Bella said as she handed me a pale blue dress.
I took it from her hands and turned around so she could undo the back of the dress.
I held up the front and waited for her to leave.
Once she was gone, I let the dress fall to my ankles and I carefully stepped out.
I then picked up the dress and placed it on the bed before changing into the blue dress Bella had given me.
I sighed again and called out to Bella.
"Can you zip it up?" I asked, turning around again.
She chuckled and sipped up the dress before carefully pushing me towards the mirror.
The dress hugged my figure, once again accentuating my curves, before falling delicately from the top of my thighs to my knees.
"Thanks," I whispered before throwing my arms around her.
"Whoa," Bella muttered before returning the hug.
"I'm glad you're my sister now. All we have to work on when I get back is your style!"
"Oh no..."
"Yep! Well, I'd better get going."
Bella smiled and walked with me down the stairs.
I met Jasper at the front door and we walked out to the awaiting car.
I turned in my seat and waved as my new family disappeared from view.
After driving for what seemed like ages, I soon found myself falling asleep.
When I opened my eyes I was no longer in the car.
"Where are we?" I asked, rubbing the sleep from my eyes.
"On a plane. We'll be landing in about ten minutes."
"Wow," I whispered before kissing Jasper's lips.
"Please fasten your seatbelts, we will be landing shortly," the pilot's voice echoed throughout the plane.
I fastened my seatbelt and locked eyes with Jasper.
I couldn't believe he was mine.
Of all people, this glorious, handsome being had chosen me as his mate and not once had he complained.
I felt the plane shake slightly as we began our descent.
Once the shaking stopped the pilot's voice came over the loud speaker once again.
"Thank you for flying with us. You are now able to leave the plane."
I unbuckled and stood up.
I reached for the overhead compartment and only just managed to reach my bag.
Jasper pulled his out easily and we walked out of the plane and into the airport.
As we made our way through the bustling crowd I held Jasper's hand.
"We need to take a cab first," he said as he flagged one down.
I sighed and listened as he spoke to the driver in a foreign language.
I watched as the city passed and soon found myself staring out at the ocean.
"Where are we going Jasper?" I asked, slightly frustrated.
"You'll see."
He grabbed my bag and his in one hand and wrapped his free arm around my waist.
He glanced around to make sure no one was looking and then jumped up onto a boat.
He placed the luggage down before helping me up.
I continued to ask where he was taking me but all he would do is smile and chuckle.
"Please Jasper! I really want to know!" I begged.
"Alright, see that island over there?" he asked, pointing straight ahead.
"Yes."
"That is where we are going. It's Isle Esme."
"Esme? As in our Esme?" I asked.
"Yes. Carlisle bought it about forty years ago as an anniversary gift. They spent about two weeks out here."
"Wow."
As we pulled up to the island my mouth popped open.
It was absolutely stunning.
The first thing I saw was the pale white sand.
As my eyes scanned the area I noticed a house buried further back.
Jasper picked me up and jumped out of the boat.
"What about the luggage?" I asked.
"It's already in the house."
"Oh."
He chuckled and carried me up the beach and through the front door.
I was stunned as I took in the beauty of the house.
Like the house they had in Washington, this one was large and open.
It wasn't as big as the one in Washington but it was still quite big.
"So, what do you want to do today?" Jasper asked from behind me.
"I don't know, there's just so much to do here. I mean, we could go hiking, we could go swimming, we could do... anything!" I exclaimed as I turned around with a bright smile on my face.
"Swimming sounds nice," he said as he walked forward.
"I agree."
He chuckled yet again and stepped back.
"Get changed and meet me out on the beach."
I nodded and turned around, walking into the bathroom with my suitcase.
I fumbled with the zipper but eventually got it open.
I sighed and pushed the dresses out of the way as I searched for a bikini.
I smiled as I saw one.
It was dark purple.
Perfect.
I tried to reach the zipper on the back of my dress but found it a little hard.
After three minutes, I managed to grab it.
I carefully unzipped it and let it fall.
I quickly put on the bikini and glanced at myself in the mirror.
The top was a little revealing but I didn't mind.
I mean seriously, he was going to see it all sooner or later right?
I shook the thought from my head and danced out the door leaving my dress on the floor.
Normally I wouldn't do that but I just wanted to spend some time with Jasper.
"Hey beautiful," he said as I walked up to him.
His golden eyes met mine and a mischievous smile flashed across his face.
He slowly walked forward and before I knew it I was over his shoulder as he walked into the water.
"Jasper!" I screeched, playfully hitting his back.
"What?" he laughed.
"Put me down!"
"Alright," he chuckled again.
At that moment, I felt the ice cold water surround my body.
I pushed myself up again and gasped for air.
I smiled at Jasper before knocking him into the water.
"Hey!" he laughed when he came up again.
"You did it to me!"
"I guess I deserved that then."
"Yeah, you did," I replied as I splashed him.
We spent most of the day in the water.
The only time I left was when I had to use the bathroom.
As the sky got darker I decided it was time to get out of the water.
I slowly pushed myself towards the shore with Jasper right beside me.
"I'm going to take a shower," I said as I headed towards the house.
"Alright," he replied as he grabbed a towel.
I sighed.
'Why don't you take one with me?' I thought.
I once again shook the thought from my head and walked inside.
Once I was in the bathroom I took my bikini off and turned on the water.
I only stayed in the shower for a few minutes before I decided to get out.
I grabbed one of the fluffy white towels and ran it through my hair before wrapping it around my slender body.
I walked over to my suitcase and began pushing the clothes around as I searched for something to wear.
I groaned when I wasn't finding anything and I tipped my suitcase upside down.
I began pushing the clothes around but there was nothing there.
I found plenty of dresses, shorts and t-shirts but none of them were suitable for bed.
It was then that I noticed a brown packed had been slipped into the mesh pocket on the lid of my suitcase.
I pulled it out and looked at it.
"Please don't hate me! – Bella"
I sighed and opened the package.
I was shocked at what I saw.
She had given a few different pyjama sets.
They were lacy pyjama sets with matching lingerie.
One was a cream colour, one was black and one was purple.
I sighed and pulled out the cream one before getting dressed.
I looked in the mirror and my mouth fell open.
It looked as if I wasn't wearing anything due to the colour.
I sighed and walked out of the bathroom.
There was really no use in changing.
I smirked as Jaspers eyes widened.
I sat down on the bed and watched him.
His eyes raked over my body before he unnecessarily cleared his throat and looked away.
"Jazz? Is everything okay?"
"Huh? Yeah, just fine," he replied as his eyes fell on my chest.
I sighed and walked around the bed so I could stand beside him.
"Jazz, what's wrong?"
He looked up at me before he sat up.
"I just... don't know if we should do this," he whispered.
"Jazz, I'm not going to force you to do anything," I replied in a whisper as I stroked his face.
He placed his cool hands on my hips and stood up.
"I know you won't," he said before holding me against his body.
After standing there for a moment I shifted slightly and he groaned.
"What?"
"Nothing. I'm just debating."
His eyes met mine and before I knew it his lips were crushed against mine.
I eagerly returned the kiss.
As I turned away for air, his lips never left my face.
They trailed across my cheek, down my neck and across my collarbone.
"These straps are really annoying me," he said as his fingers played with them.
He slowly pushed them off my shoulders and pulled me over to the bed.
My finger's tugged at the bottom of his grey shirt before I caved and pulled it over his head.
My hands then trailed over his body and he kissed me.
I couldn't believe this.
I had seen a fair amount of Jasper but now, he was going to be mine in every way possible.
I smiled and we continued with our bliss filled night.
