Twilight without the complications

Chapter Sixteen

Chapter Sixteen

***Alice's POV***

I finally have my sister back! I can't believe it! But I will miss Vanessa... Although I have a feeling we will see her again outside the gates of Volterra.

After a short while of watching Bella and Edward dance, the guests began to leave, so Rosalie and Emmet went to the entrance of the marquee to say goodbye, while Jazz and I went to dance, and Carlisle and Esme followed us.

We all danced while Bella's friend continued to sing, smiling at his friends's ecstasy.

When finally Michael jumped off the stage, Bella ran at him and hit lightly around the head.

"Hey!" He said, rubbing his head theatrically as he felt no pain.

"You knew who they were when you booked the gig!" Bella yelled back at him, I heard Edward chuckle next to me.

"Actually, I knew that they were Cullens, in Forks. It was just a lucky guess that they were your Cullens," Michael replied, grinning.

"How did you know there would be an event for us to sing at?" Bella asked sceptically.

"Well, you said that Rosalie and Emmett get married most years, so.I just looked for Cullen weddings," Michael smiled.

Bella gaped, while the rest of us laugh, Edward walked to Bella's side and put his arms around her waist. "Thank you," He said to Michael, who shrugged.

"I don't like seeing people unhappy," Michael shrugged nonchalantly.

"You're very kind," Carlisle complimented.

Micheal laughed, a sound of music, "You wouldn't expect it from someone from the Vultori," He says, rubbing his head where Bella hit him.

Bella pouted as we all laughed.

"Let's get inside," Esme suggested, and we followed her into the house. Only Edward and Bella turned away from us, walking across the garden, to their meadow, and as they do I see a vision, a vision of a beautiful, white gold diamond ring.

***Edward's POV***

I finally have my Bella back. We walk at a human pace across the huge field that is our front lawn, when we reach the trees, we continue the comfortable silence.

"Do you remember when we first met?" She asked suddenly, not looking up at me.

I chuckle, "When you left dents in the table top at school you mean?"

"Are you going to school?" She asks curiously.

I sigh, school is definitely a punishment for something, even if Esme says it will 'do us good' "Yes, Emmett and Rosalie are acting seventeen right now, and the rest of us are acting sixteen. Jasper wanted his classes with Alice."

Bella smiles, "I've decided I'm sixteen," She trills, causing me to laugh.

Finally, we're at the meadow, and we both collapse onto the flower sprigged grass.

***Bella's POV***

Edward and I are finally together! Hopefully, I will join him at school soon. We have been talking for hours, but now as the sun sets I lean my head against his shoulder in contentment.

Suddenly I feel something cool slip down the ring finger on my left hand. I look down, and see a gorgeous diamond ring, glinting in the fading sun, matching the glittery texture of my skin.

"Will you marry me Bella?" Edward murmurs. My breathing hitches, and if it were working I can't imagine how fast my heart would be beating now.
