'Cause I will wait, I will wait for you.

I Will Wait-Mumford & Sons

After the celebrating had ended people slowly started moving back home. Then came the wrath of Alice, once we were back home, for Emmett and I's eloping. But now, a couple weeks after everything it was settled down to what could be considered normal after everything, it was time for strictly Emmett and me.

Giving a wide smile, that I didn't seem to be able to get rid of, I slipped the spaghetti straps over my arms and felt Alice's nimble fingers fasten the buttons up the back of the bodice. Rose leaned up, fixing my hair as she pinned in the blusher to my waves, pinning back the side opposite of my bangs along with the hydrangea pins, while Bella prepared Nessie pinning back her hair with a dark red bow.

"Are you ready?" Alice asked.

"I'm beyond ready," I grinned and she leapt forward, wrapping her arms around me.

"Good luck," Alice smiled and both Rose and Bella gave me a wide smiles and hugs. "Remember to…" Rose laughed and and pulled on Alice's arm interrupting her. Quickly they left the little tent Alice had set up outside and I caught a small glimpse of the perfect conditions. It was absolutely ideal, It had just snowed giving the ground a pristine white coating. Also a bit cloudy so I wouldn't freak out Charlie, and it wasn't that cold so the humans—which there weren't many of—wouldn't be too cold if they had a coat.

I heard Edward start playing the march and Nessie looked up at me with that dazzling smile handing me my bouquet of white hydrangeas with tiny sprigs of frosted evergreen which had a dark red velvet ribbon wrapped around the stems, before stepping out.

After waiting the appropriate time, I bowed my head slightly and stepped out of the tent, meeting Carlisle who was escorting me up along the red runner which now had tons of tiny white petals scattered on it. Smiling, I took his arm and took in the decorations which I hadn't seen the finished product of thanks to Alice's need to surprise me.

Rose and Esme had placed tall candle holders along the inside and outside of the rows of chairs—which were a dark wood with a red velvet ribbon tied around the back—along with stringing and crisscrossing strands of the old fashioned white lights overtop. Desperately I tried to strain my eyes up to the front but others were blocking my view until we got around the corner to actually walk down the aisle.

That's when I saw him; I barely took notice of the frosted evergreen arch way that he was under, and felt Carlisle chuckled as he restrained me to keep pace. I figured Emmett had noticed because he let out a tiny chuckle of his own as his eyes locked onto mine. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, I made it up to the alter and Carlisle moved to the position at the front.

'It time for our happily ever after.' I whispered into his thoughts and he gave one of the widest smiles I think I've ever seen from him as he gripped onto my hands.

oOo

Carnivore, animal, I am a cannibal
I eat boys up

"Nessie, Piper you need to get ready for school," Esme called.

Nessie showed me a picture of our last school with a just a hint of extreme distaste with just the touch of her hand on my forearm.

'Yeah I know exactly how you feel,' I muttered and she giggled softly as we walked from the dance studio up to our rooms.

I quickly entered my room and saw Emmett already getting ready, pulling on a pair of fresh jeans and a tight vintage inspired gray Henley. Smiling, I walked into our familiar closet and pulled out a high waist black skirt that hit about mid thigh, a loose dark purple tank, which I tucked into the skirt, and a black blazer. I quickly grabbed some lace patterned tights and pulling them on before taking some flat over the knee boots and pulling them on, too.

I noticed Emmett leaning against the doorway watching me like he always did as I slipped the worn thimble necklace around my neck. It had been fixed and re-fixed over the years but I still wore it every single day along with the bear ring on my middle finger of my right hand. Then there was the simple thin platinum band with eight inset diamonds—one for each ten years— around my ring finger on my left hand, which I never took off. A diamond wedding set was a bit to flashy for a supposed 15 year old, so the simple bands both Emmett and I wore were perfect, though the diamond set still sat in a the jewelry box on my vanity, and I would wear it when we were playing an older couple, like when we struck out on our own.

"Ready," I smiled and skipped over to the stairs grabbing his hand. Downstairs, I heard Alice grumbling over Bella's outfit just like every day we started at a new school, but it usually trailed off throughout our time in the town.

We quickly divided into cars with one car being, Edward, Bella, Alice Jasper and Nessie, then the other being Rose, Devan, Emmett and me. One after the other we drove up to the school and prepared for yet another couple years in high school where that scene would play out. You know that scene in the movies where the new popular kids show up in the fancy cars and everyone stares. Well that's how I felt every single time as we all gracefully got out and the eyes all turned to us while we formed into our cover story groups.

Rosalie and Jasper moved together forming the Hale twins, Esme's niece and Nephew.

Emmett, Bella, and Alice formed Esme and Carlisle's adoptive children.

Edward and Nessie formed the Swan's and Devan and I formed the Worthington's, both pairs of brother and sister that the Cullen's had taken in. Thank god they were rich enough to take in nine kids…

As for what grades we would be going into, Rose, Jasper, Emmett and Devan would be playing juniors. While Edward, Bella, Alice, and I would be sophomores and Nessie would be a freshman.

Smiling, I bumped Devan's shoulder and he smiled as we walked down the halls in groups but still as a whole family unit and entered the front office and I quickly smiled at the plump receptionist. "Oh my you must be the new students," She looked over all of us especially the boys and I heard Edward stifle a chuckle.

"You are correct," I chimed tilting my head to the side slightly putting on my most innocent face. "Would you like me to introduce us all, or I don't I just give everyone their things. It would be a lot easier."

She gave a tiny smile and handed over the things but looked confused once they had left her hands. One thing I had learned over the years, I couldn't exactly compel people with my voice but it was more like a suggestion that they felt the need to follow. Smirking, I turned around to my family and handed out the normal things to everyone. Their schedules, the map to the school we knew like the back of our hand—besides Ness—and the normal rule book.

"Thank you, we'll just be going." I smiled and she nodded still with the confused face.

"I wonder who they are?" a girl whispered to her friend and smirked as her eyes moved over the boys.

"I'll see you after class," Emmett said leaning down and kissing my lips softly.

"See you then," I smiled and joined Alice, Edward, and Bella to head to our first class English. It was our only class with all four of us in it. After that I had Pre- Calculus alone which wouldn't be fun at all, then Bio with Alice and Bella—which Alice wasn't too pleased with because it was her turn to partner with a human, History with Bella and Edward—which would be fun with the more modern things we had lived through—Lunch, P.E. with Alice and Nessie—boring for all, and Spanish 2 with Emmett—my favorite.

As we walked in I saw the teacher eye us and then smile. "Class," she called for attention which we already had. "I'd like to introduce you to our new students." She turned to us, "If you could introduce yourselves."

"Hi, I'm Alice Cullen," she gave a wide smile.

"Bella Cullen," She looked slightly embarrassed.

"Edward Swan," He sounded bored as usual.

"Piper Worthington," I smiled looking over all of them.

"I'm sure everyone will be polite and you can take any empty seat," Mrs. Blanken said.

Alice and I moved to the seats apart from each other giving Edward and Bella the only pair.

As I sat down I noticed the boy beside me staring. "Hey," He smirked and I had to give him points for having the courage to talk. "I'm Joel."

"Pleasure," I smiled and relaxed back in my desk crossing my legs. I noticed his eyes linger down to the section where my legs showed slightly even if covered by tights.

'What's he thinking?' I asked Edward and saw the grossed out expression on his face. 'Thank you,' I chirped slightly and heard Alice giggle softly as the future filled her vision.

After class ended I grabbed my bag and headed towards the door but he kept up, "so Piper what are you doing this weekend?" Joel asked still sitting at his desk.

"You sure do move fast," I complimented walking back over to where he was seated. He looked like the typical bad boy-popular kid, the one that never got turned down. I sure he already had at least 3 other 'girlfriends,' after a couple times in high school it gets beyond easy to pick these out.

"So what do ya say?" He smirked, but nowhere near Emmett's smirk. Leaning over I placed my hands on the desk top leaning in front of him and I saw the lust go to his eyes at the prospect.

"Oh, Joel," I smirked and moved my hand forward over his letterman's jacket collar careful not to actually touch his skin. "I eat boys like you up," I winked before standing up and joining Emmett at the door. He sent a smirk back at the boy as his arm wrapped around my waist.

oOo

"This is horrible," Nessie groaned looking down at the cafeteria food. "It's worse than normal."

"Nessie, eat," Bella commanded, hitting that specific 'mom tone,' and she groaned.

"Try the fruit," I muttered and she rolled her eyes but picked up a grape and popped it into her mouth.

"So what are they thinking?" Emmett asked Edward.

"The normal; attractive…the boys are imagining ways of asking out the girls and the girls are hoping we'll ask them. They haven't quite picked up that we're all attached." Edward whispered.

"Well, thats just great then they'll bug me once they figure it out," Ness grumbled.

"You'll see Jacob after school, It just makes more sense for him to go to school in the reservation as Quil and Claire's great-grandson." Edward soothed his daughter.

"I know, I know," She sighed.

Biting my lip I leaned back and looked over the rundown cafeteria, suddenly I had a desire to find something I remembered from my blurry human memories which I had made sure to keep alive in a journal and with Emmett's help. I looked up and over at the wall Alice had flicked the snow ball at as a distraction in order to seem normal to Bella and as saw the chips which the ice ball had made.

"What?" Emmett asked.

"Do you guys remember the ice ball from the last time we were here," Bella and Nessie looked completely confused but the others laughed and giggled with me.

"What?" Bella asked and Edward started telling them the story.

oOo

As the day closed we all piled into the cars Rose and Devan moved into the back and I'd won the chance to drive.

As soon as we got there Nessie got out of the other car running full speed into the house and I could hear her laughter along with Jacob's. Bella and Edward smiled and linked their hands going into the house after their daughter while Alice and Jasper followed closely behind, Alice towing Jasper with just one linked finger. Rose and Devan both grinned and headed out into the forest to do some 'hunting,' which I was thankful they weren't doing in the house.

Shaking my head slightly, I got out of the car, grabbing my bag and by the time I stood up Emmett was there wrapping his arms around my waist. "Are you happy to be back?" He whispered leaning down to kissing my temple.

I smiled letting every single memory from the last time we were in this town come back, "I'm more than happy, I feel like I'm home."

"Good I thought it might bring back bad memories," he smiled.

"A lot changed the last time in Forks Washington but the last thing I associate it with is bad memories my darling husband." Smirking, I leaned up tangling my fingers up into his hair as he met my lips in a passionate kiss.

The End.
