Trapped in My Mind

Preparations

      "Come on Bella! Put them on!" I turn from a center piece to find a scared Bella and slightly angry Alice. "Aria tell your sister that she needs to practice walking in the heels." Alice demands shooting my sister a look. With a sigh I wobble away from the table. "Bella. Put the shoes on if I have to wear them so do you." I say almost tripping on myself. "Ari! You look like you're in pain, I don't want to look like that. Can't I just wear flats?" Bella pleads. "No." Both Alice and I chorus making Bella slump in defeat. "Fine." She dejectedly says harshly sitting on a wooden bench and slipping the heels on wincing as she does so. "Don't worry Bella, Aria your guys' wedding will be amazing. I just wish you would've let me do two different weddings." Alice says mumbling in the end. Shaking my head I go and help Bella stand up and walk to a flat surface so she doesn't trip. "Thanks Ari." She mutters staring at her feet as she walks.

"My. Feet. Are. Killing me." I whine collapsing on the couch in the Cullen's house. "Tell me about it." Bella grumbles sitting next to me currently attempting to take the damned things off. "Awe are the two wittle girls complaining about their wittle feet." Emmett mocks walking into the room a smirk plastered on his face. "Emmett. I wouldn't do that, the girls aren't in a very good mood." Edward warns sitting next to Bella and taking her hand in his. "What are they going to do about it they can hardly walk." Emmett laughs. I shoot him a nasty glare causing him to choke on a laugh and stare at me wide eyed. "Emmett so help me god I will tear you piece to piece if you don't shut up." I growl rubbing my aching feet wincing ever so often. "Okay love. Here I'll help." Emmett comes over and gently rubs my feet making me let out a sigh of relief. "Nice save there Emmett." Edward states a smirk on his face as he watched Emmett rub my feet. "Shut up Edward." Emmett grumbles.

After relaxing for a bit Bella and I decided to go home. "We'll see you both tomorrow morning bright and early to get ready." Alice says hugging the both of us. "Thank you. For everything." I say sincerely. "Don't worry about it hon, you both are part of the family now and we help our family." Esme says standing at Carlisle's side a bright warm smile on her face. Emmett takes my hand in his and takes me outside to his jeep.

"Are you sure about tomorrow?" I turn and stare at Emmett who's sitting on my bed a solemn look on his face. "What do you mean. Of course I'm sure. What's brought this on?" I ask sitting next to him. "It's just, I haven't told you everything about my past." He says. "I don't care about your past, I care about your present. I love you and nothing's going to change that." I tell him. "I was to be married before getting turned. The girl's name was Sarah. She was unlike any other." He pauses to look at me. I take his hand in my own and urge him to continue. "She was beautiful and smart. But very selfish she didn't like it when I did something out of line. One night I went out for a hunt trying to blow off some steam when a bear came. It was huge and it came charging at me, I tried to fight it but I was no match. It was tearing into me when Rosalie came." "Rose found you?" "Yeah, she thought I was her mate and took me to Carlisle. He ended up changing me. I remember the next day I was angry and thirsty, I went to my old town and killed Sarah. I watched as the life left her eyes and felt no remorse. I just felt like you should know before marrying me." He says. I look at him with tears in my eyes. "I understand if you think I'm a monster." I quickly crash my lips on his. "You. Are. Not. A. Monster." I say. He looks for a sign of a lie but finds none so he crashes his lips on mine again. "I love you Aria Swan." "And I love you Emmett Cullen. Now go and hunt take Edward with you." I say pushing him away from me. He laughs shaking his head at me. "I'll see you tomorrow love." "See you tomorrow."
