Alice:
I twirled in front of the mirror, as I played with the fabric of my wedding dress. I danced around, and spun in my wedding dress. I can't believe that when I leave this church today I am going to be Mrs. Jasper Hale. I was going to be the daughter-in-law of William and Sarah Hale, and the sister-in-law of Rosalie Hale, my best friend.
I heard a knock on the door, and went to retrieve it. I opened the door to see Bella, bouncing her three year old daughter Abigail, in her arms.
"Hi Abby" I greeted, sliding the toddler out of Bella's arms.
"Are you ready" Bella wondered, closing the door behind her.
"Yes" I answered, placing the little girl on her feet.
Bella and my cousin Edward got married four years ago, and now I'm getting married, I think Rose and Emmett are going to be next, even though he isn't the marrying type. They aren't even dating, but I could see they have something between them. I feel like I am missing something with them two, something had to happen because they started to act weird ever since two months ago. We were all basically raised together, and I know for sure they don't look at each other as brother and sister. Bella, and Renesme are sisters, and live with their mother Renee, because their father died about ten years ago.
Edward, Bella, and Emmett are all 25, Jasper, Rose, and I are 23, and Renesme and Jacob are 21. My mother came into the room next, with Renesme behind her. She placed a tiara onto my head, before pecking my cheek.
"At least one of my children are ready to settle down" she whispered, as she started to cry.
"Are you ready? We're about to start" Renesme said, adjusting the bottom fabric of my dress.
"I can't wait until I am married to Jasper" I whispered, blinking away the tears.
"Alice" Rose yelled, running into my room.
I quickly turned away to find her face, red, and her completely out of breath.
"What" I wondered, running to her even though Renesme was still adjusting my dress.
"Jasper's gone! Emmett and I looked everywhere for him, we can't find him! Edward found this note in the room he was getting ready in" Rose exclaimed, as Emmett appeared behind her.
Emmett walked towards me, and handed me the letter. I slowly, unfolded it, and took a deep breath before reading it.
Dear, Alice,
If you are reading this, then I must have left. Don't look for me! I need this! While I was getting ready my life literally flashed before my eyes. I'm not ready to get married. I thought I was, but I'm not. Please don't cry, and look for me. Move on! Find someone who is ready for marriage. I don't want to hold you back, and tell everyone that I am sorry. I do love you Alice, but not enough to marry you.
Sincerely, Jasper.
I threw the note to the floor, and flopped into the chair before I started crying. This isn't fair. I watched my mother pick the note up, and heard her read it out loud so everyone could hear.
"Alice, I am so sorry" Rose whispered, quickly running to my side.
"I'm going to kill Jasper" Emmett growled, clenching his fists.
"No you are not" Rose shouted, eye to eye with Emmett.
"Yes I am" Emmett remarked, storming out of the room, with Rose right behind him.
My mother sat on her knees right in front of me. She placed her hands on my knees, and used her other hand to lift my chin to make me look at her.
"It's better to know how he really felt before you got married" my mother whispered, running her hand through my hair.
"I know" I croaked, using the bottom of my dress to wipe my eyes.
"How about you change back into your regular clothes, and meet me and your father outside, and we'll treat you to lunch" my mom said, standing up.
"I'll make an announcement" Bella responded, holding Abby's hand.
"I can't go out to lunch! My fiancee just left me at the altar! I'm all alone! Nobody wanys me! Nobody loves me!" I bellowed, falling down to my knees.
