I've got a plan for these two. A good plan. At least, I think it's a good plan. We'll see. Thanks for sticking with me on this one. Too many plot bunnies, not enough hours in the day...I tell ya! I do apologize for the sporadic updates for Angels and Monsters. Not enough time in the day and too many ideas floating around in my head. Ya know?

I'm putting the author's note up here, not to muddy up the bottom. Thank you for those of you who have stuck with me with this story. I truly appreciate it. It took me a long time to finish it, but I'm so happy that I did. You can find pictures for this chapter on my blog and tumblr (links for those are in my profile). You can also find me on Facebook: Tufano79's Twilight Fanfiction Appreciation and on twitter: tufano79. I hope you enjoy the final chapter of Angels and Monsters.

Chapter Twenty-Five: Epilogue

Two Months Later

"Alice, I don't understand why I have to have so many fittings," Rose giggled on the pedestal as Alice was pinning her wedding gown. "I've been the same size since I was changed ninety years ago."

"I want your wedding to be perfect," Alice said, fluffing the hem of the skirt. "Well, I know it's going to be perfect because I'm planning it!" She pursed her lips, looking at the ivory silk. "It needs more, you know?" The dress was gorgeous, cut close to Rose's body, but flaring at mid-thigh. At the right knee, there were some rhinestones and sequins. It was missing something. I wasn't sure what.

"What about adding more to this?" Rose suggested.

"Hmmm, no," Alice answered. "That's fine."

"Why not add some more rhinestones to the bust? It will pull the whole thing together?" I said, pointing to the sweetheart neckline. "It will put a little more glamour to the wedding gown."

"Yes!" Alice squealed, pushing Rose into the bathroom so she could remove the dress. We were all in the Cullen home in the Pacific Northwest. After Edward and I returned from our month-long honeymoon, we found out that Emmett had proposed to Rosalie and the wedding planning was underway for a New Year's Eve event. Alice told me that I was essential in the planning and so Edward and I flew out there after we stopped in Chicago to close up our lives there.

He sold his condo in Trump Tower, but we kept mine since it was under an alias. Edward was still on sabbatical from his company and would stay under the radar for at least another year before he made any public appearances. He just wanted time to be with me. Despite our whirlwind mating, he wanted to spend the time to woo me and make me feel like the angel I was in his eyes. He wanted to take me out on dates, surprise me with gifts and just lose ourselves in our blissful happiness of being in love with each other. On top of all of that, he also wanted to get us a home, just for us. For now, we were staying in the third floor suite in the Cullen home in Forks. Alice had decorated it with Esme's help, reflecting our subtle, simple tastes. After Rose and Emmett's wedding, we'd find our own place, probably closer to Seattle since Edward was going bonkers being surrounded by all of the green.

He truly was a city boy.

"Bella, we have to get going," Alice said, taking Rose's dress. "We have an appointment with the florist and we have to finalize the invitations."

"Shouldn't Rosalie have a say in this?" I quipped, gesturing to the gorgeous bride.

"Alice is planning my first wedding since I'm impatient and I want it done now," Rose giggled. "The next one? All me. Besides, I trust her. She knows what I like. Don't forget to pick up your dresses, too!"
