Chapter Forty-One:
Spare room

   "I am not totally offended by your choice in groom," Rose defended herself as she plaited the bride's hair after being accused of hating said bride.

    "Just my blatant lack of respect of mortality," Bella shot back, her voice filled with confidence.

    "Ah, you finally figured it out," Lucinda comment as she looked through her extensive makeup collection for a single nude lipstick as red wasn't an option apparently, "Ah ha! How about this one?"

"Perfect-" Alice said but stopped as she heard Renee and Charlie walking up the stairs, they were discussing the graduation caps.

"Alice, Bella, Rose!" Renee cried in glee. They all greeted the Bella's mother and father before even noticing Luci in the corner, "I don't think we've met, I'm Renee, Bella's mom."

"I'm Lucinda, Edward's sister."

"You don't look alike."

"I'm sure you can guess why," Lucinda said before excusing herself to go get ready. Renee was testing her patience just from the dirty look she gave the vampire. Apparently, Renee didn't know that they were adopted.

As Lucinda began to climb the next flight of stairs leading to her and Jasper's room, she heard the older human speak again, "Well what was wrong with her?"

"You, dickhead." Lucinda muttered, knowing full well her 'sisters' were listening based on there giggles.

Knocking on the slightly ajar door, Lucinda entered her shared room to grab her dress quickly when she saw Jasper fiddling with his tie.

"You're doing it wrong," Luci said, scolding him. As Jasper turned to face her, she swatted his hands away and began to tie the violet tie herself, "Here, let me,"

"Why thank you ma'am," He spoke, letting his southern accent drawl out before he would have to mute it again, he and Lucinda both hated doing it but it is vital.

As she finished, Luci dropped her hands down but not before Jasper caught them, bringing her to twirl round her room, "You look beautiful, Darlin', absolutely stunnin'"

"I'm in yoga pants," she pointed out. Her dress laid on sofa in the corner of their bedroom (of sofa room if we are being fussy) hasn't been touched yet so she doesn't know what Alice had chosen for her, and Luce was scared to look, "I need to get dressed,"

"Yoga pants or a dress, you will still be the most beautiful there," She lightly smacked Jasper in the chest before going to grab the dress-bag from the bed. Laughing, Jasper pecked Luci on her forehead before heading downstairs to greet his cousins from Denali.

    Tucking a loose strand of hair her face, Lucinda opened the dress bag to see a sea of violet, the same shade as her fiancé's tie and pocket square. The dress, once on, ended just before her knees. However, the neckline was not as modest as the skirt length.

    Slipping on her heels, Luci sighed as she looked in the mirror. She never wore dresses, she thought she looked awful.

    Before heading downstairs, Lucinda went into the guest room opposite her own, "Hey Andi, you ready to head down,"

    "Yes, I can't wait!"
