Vampires in Las Vegas

The gifts that keep on giving

Here's the last chapter in the story, I have a tear in my eye... I appreciate so much all of your reviews. They really kept me laughing and motivated to write all of this.

While I changed my clothes, Edward made a quick phone call. It sounded like he arranged to have the mustang brought over to the Luxor parking garage so we could safely get back to Alice on this beautiful, sunny day. We gathered up our things and headed downstairs. The black mustang was waiting when we entered the garage. It was a beautiful car and I jumped right in. "Now this is a car!" I said as I sat on the black leather seats. My hand ran gently across the dashboard.

The engine roared when Edward turned the key. Smiling he said "At least now I know what to get you as a wedding present." He stepped on the gas and the tires screeched as we tore out of the garage onto Las Vegas Blvd. The engine purred down the street and all I could say was "And as my gift to you, I won't even be mad at you when you buy it!" His laughter filled the car.

We pulled up to the Bellagio a short time later. A confused look crossed his face as he held the steering wheel. Then he shook his head and smiled. "They're all waiting for us. Emmett is especially excited to see you this morning." He winked at me and got out of the car.

Emmett. How would I ever face him again? He would never let me live this down. My face was hot, and I got a little dizzy from all the rushing blood. The door flew open and Edward was there offering me his hand. As he pulled me out of the car he said "Gotcha! Now we're even for the whole Eddie thing."

I gave him a little punch in the shoulder and then took his hand in mine. "Well, let's get this over with, Where are they?"

Like it was somehow obvious, he muttered "Where else? The buffet." Confusion must have taken over my face because I opened my mouth to ask a question and all that came out was "HHUUHH?"

"Come on Bella, let's not keep Alice waiting. I think she has something for you..."

We followed signs for the buffet. What a bunch of vampires were doing at a buffet was beyond me. A big sign marked the entrance and since it was early, there weren't too many people down there yet. At a table in the back I saw Alice, Jasper and Rosalie. Jasper and Alice were sitting across from each other, their interlocked hands sitting on top of the table. Rosalie was seated next to Alice. Jasper waved, he looked so much better that he had last night. An evening with Alice had worked wonders.

But there was no sign of Emmett, has Rosalie killed him? Or was the little pirate back at Treasure Island, grounded by his wife.

We passed the dessert section of the buffet on the way to the table when I heard a voice behind me boom "Good morning Bella. So what did you two crazy kids do last night?" Behind us, was Emmett carrying the largest plate of food I'd ever seen. He had piled bacon, sausage, eggs, hash browns and pastries about a foot high on the plate.

Without dropping a single piece of food, he balanced the platter all the way back to the table and set it in front of an empty chair."What are you going to do with all that food Emmett?" I asked as I sat down across from the food. Emmett slipped into the chair next to Rosalie and pushed the plate of food at me.

"Me, nothing. Yuck! I got it for you Bella. I wouldn't want my human sister to starve. I'm sure you worked up quite an appetite after last night..." Edward growled "Watch it Emmett."

"Hey it's not my fault she came to Vegas and Alice and Rosalie turned her into a stripper! Yell at them. I was just as shocked as you when I saw her dancing on the stage..." Emmett's voice trailed off as he relived the memory in his head. A piece of greasy bacon smacked him in the face thanks to Edward's quick hands.
