Darker: Sequel to Harder To Breathe

Finally

*Bella's pov

(New Years Eve)

"Mommy you look pretty" Molly said smiling up at me as I put on my lipstick. "Thanks sweetie" I said. I looked at her in the mirror the spitting image of Jaz, it hurt so much for so many reasons. "Would you like a little lipstick?" I asked. She nodded her smile growing. I found a light, nude shade, and put a little on her. She copied my motions to rub it in and made a kissy face. "Perfect" I smiled. "Bella, time to get dressed" Christina said waking in. I nodded and I helped Molly into her dress first making sure she was all set. Christina helped me into mine. I out on my necklace, bracelet, and garter before slipping on my shoes. "Ready?" She asked. I looked at the clock, 9:30. I nodded and stifled a yawn. Adam and his brilliant ideas, getting married and celebrating into the new year. I just wanted a simple ceremony in the afternoon so we could be off to Hawaii, but no. I sighed and stretched. We headed down to the hall where the JP would marry us. I loved the hotel, it was gorgeous, and everyone was right there, not going to a million places. They stopped me at the corner to ensure that Adam was placed at the alter before letting me to my place with Molly. Molly stood in front of me and dad took my arm. "Ready?" He asked softly. I nodded and awaited the change in music. Everyone stood as I entered the room and Adam smiled, takin my breath away in that beautiful suit.

"You look beautiful" Adam whispered when I reached him. "You look pretty handsome yourself" I whispered back. The ceremony went by so quickly and before I knew it, it was time for our vows. We decided to keep it simple with traditional vows. "You may now kiss the bride" Adam pulled me close and kiss me with longing, and everything that happened over the past 4 months, the magazine articles spewing hate and criticism, melted away. I pulled away and waved Molly over. She jumped up into Adam's arms and we hugged and kissed her, before heading back up the aisle. We headed back to get some pictures with family while our 150 friends, yes he convinced me we needed some friends, went to cocktail hour. "I love how you match" he smirked kissing me admiring Molly's dress. "She decided in her dress, I had nothing to do with it" I smiled. "Are you happy?" He asked. "Very, but sad too. Today's been hard. I feel like I've been hurting Jaz's memory. But I know this is what she wants" I admitted as the camera flashed continuously. We headed back to the hall and were finally introduced as husband and wife. We danced the night away and rang in the new year with champagne and fireworks.

They threw rice as we ran off to the limo and Molly waved happily in Jesse's arms. Adam put up the black out divider and we changed in the back into more comfortable clothes and relaxed in each other's arms. "I love you Bella Levine" he whispered. "I love you too Adam Levine" I smirked and kissed him long and hard, reveling in the fact that I would spend the rest of my days like this, in his arms.

The end.
