*snif* This is the last chapter of Bella's Life. I know that most of you guys will hunt me down in Chicago area to convince me to write more. I feel like I'm loosing a child... (despite the fact I'm actually 12) Now I'm sobbing, jeez, I'm such a dork.
Bella's POV
We headed back to Forks, along with Renee, Charlie, and Anthony. Since then, Alice and Esme had been preparing with wedding. I sware that everytime Edward looks at Alice, he was grinning. That soooo can't be good......
***********
Wedding Day: June 3
"Come on!!!!" Alice yelled across the room.
"The wedding isn't until a few hours Alice!" I complained, wanting to stay in Edward's arms.
"But it takes hours to make your beauty look stunning!" Alice squealed.
I rolled my eyes.
"Come on.." I told Edward, trying to get out of the couch.
"No! No!" Alice said.
"Why?"
"Edward is not allowed to see the dress until you walk down the aisle!" Alice complained.
I groaned.
"Fine."
I turned around to see my fiance's angelic face.
"I'll see you later." I whispered into his ear and kissed him.
"Wait." Edward instructed.
I looked at him in confusion.
But before I could respond, Edward came back down with three envelopes.
"What are these?" I asked in confusion.
Edward grinned and soon he was out of sight.
I was about to open one of the envelopes but Alice interrupted.
"Hold on, Bella. Read them we are working on you. We can't waste time." Alice said while dragging me upstairs.
I sat in a seat in the bathroom and saw Esme, Rosalie, Anastasia, and Leah waiting for me.
"Just relax, Bella. We'll work on you while you read the letters." Alice said.
I raised my eyebrows. There are letters?
Then I opened one of the envelopes and the front print said Edward Masen Senior. My eyes widened in surprise... Edward's father? Then I opened the letter, and surpringly, it's for me.
To my dearest daughter-in-law,
As you read this, you will no doubt be on your way to begin your life with my son. You must be an extraordinary woman to have entranced my Edward. He has been a wonderful son and I am sure he will make an excellent husband. My son has a large, loving heart and deserves nothing more than to share that love with another.
I must warn you though, he does have two flaws. He is as stubborn as the day is long, and he must always be right. I can only hope that you love him despite his flaws and that you become a balance for him.
Be patient with him and he will reward you with his stunning personality. Be kind to him and he will give you the world. Love him and he will love you so deeply and completely that it will last forever.
Welcome to our family, Mrs. Masen.
Edward Masen Senior
If I tear, I would be sobbing right now.
"Who's the letter from?" Leah asked.
"Edward's father." I whispered in shock.
Everyone's eyes widened, except Alice.
I handed the letter to Esme and she recited it out loud for the rest of us to hear it.
"Awww...." Anastasia teased.
I sent her a death glare.
I went to the next letter, wondering what it would say. I found it surpringly that this one is from Elizabeth Masen....
To my new daughter,
A mother always thinks the wedding day of her only child has come too soon. It is especially so with my Edward. He has been such a blessing to his father and me. Our home will never be the same without his daily interactions with us.
But alas, we can never keep our children with us forever. They grow and start families of their own. I must remember to always think on this time as the day I gained a daughter – not the loss of a son.
Give him your whole heart as he deserves nothing less. Share all of your thoughts with him so that he may know you inside and out. Never keep secrets as this is the quickest way to grow distrust. Never leave each other in anger—it cools passion much too quickly.
I wish all the love and happiness in this world to you and my son. You are the wife of a dear, sweet angel. Always remember that. Please make my son happy. It is all that I ask of you.
Elizabeth Masen
I would be SERIOUSLY crying right now. I wish I would have met Edward's parents....
This time, I recited out the letter myself.
"Edward's parents are very kind." Leah said
Who else can the next letter be from?
I sighed, when I saw it's from my very own fiance.
My Bella, My Love,
Today is our wedding day. Just writing the words thrills me. You have given me so much over the last year, more than I feel I deserve.
I wanted to give you something very special to start your day off on a happy note. I knew that my father was saving letters he and my mother wrote for the day when I would marry. I came across them years ago when I inventoried his study. The first time I read them, I felt overwhelmingly sad. My parents had very high hopes for me and wonderful thoughts of me. I didn’t think they would feel the same if they could see me as I was then, if they could see me as the soulless creature I was. I put the letters back in the box, so sure in my belief that they would remain there until they turned to dust. Once again, I was very wrong, and for the first time, glad of it.
But for the last two weeks, I have been thinking about the wedding and the words, letters, came into my mind and I reclaimed the letter back from Chicago. I thought they would be perfect for you, my angel, as a gift of my love. I can't wait for you to be mine forever.
I love you,
Edward
That letter would have made my heart soar, if it was still beating. I sighed. I looked up into the mirror and found that I was already wearing my veil.
"We'll need to change. Will you be alright, here alone Esme?" Rosalie asked.
"Good ahead and take your time girls." Esme said.
Right, Alice is my maid of honor while Rosalie, Anastasia, and Leah are my bridesmaid.
I sighed.
"Is something wrong, Bella?" Esme asked.
"None at all. Just a little anxious." I admit.
Esme made a soft laugh.
"Edward is more than anxious. He's never been so happy before. We are glad that he met you, Bella. Edward has finally broke through his barriers." Esme exclaimed happily.
I just smiled. I can't believe that I can truly change Edward.
"Time to change, Bella!" Alice yelled while coming out of the closet.
The dress was completely beautiful, and just perfect.
"Thank you Alice!" I said.
"No time for talking, put this on, and you can thank me later." Alice teased while handing me the wedding dress.
I rolled my eyes, and I closed the door once Esme and the rest left the room and got myself dressed.
**********
Once I got out of the room, I heard Alice squealing.
"It's time!"
I took an uneccessary breath.
"You look beautiful, Bells." Charlie said once I got down the stairs.
"Thanks." I whispered softly.
We got to the meadow, and saw everyone in their seats, waiting for me. Then I saw Edward's face, who was smiling. I had to smile back at the beautiful face. As the music started, Charlie and I walked slowly down the aisle. Once Charlie placed my hand in Edward's, I heard him whispered, "Take care of my baby."
I looked him, trying not to sob.
I gotta step in, I have to skip the vows, because I honestly have no idea what to write for that. I have never been to one wedding! Sad right?
"Edward Cullen, will you take Isabella Swan as your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, to love and cherish, through good and bad?”
Edward butterscotch eyes looked through mine when he said the words.
"I do."
"Isabella Swan, do you take Edward Cullen as your lawfully wedding husband, to have and to hold, to love and cherish, through good and bad?”
I whispered the words through happiness.
"I do."
"I pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Edward kissed me pasionately. People may not know how important the kiss of a wedding be. I know, and I know why.... to spend forever with the one you love. But Edward and I are going to love each other for the rest of eternity.... literally.
The End
Waaaaaa...... I love this story soooo much! I know you guys are sad that this story ended, but trust me, I'm more sad than all of you guys combined. Stay tuned tommorrow, I have a surprise..... ^_^

Hey you guys, once I told you guys before, I'm sorry for not writing as often as I used to. Because of school, and for the fact that I'm sick right now.... I'm not sure when it's the next time I'll be writing. But I know for sure I'm NOT going to stop writing permanently. But for those who really likes fanfictions, I'll be posting some stories on the links section of this spot.
For those who have been curious where I get ideas for stories, (Seriously, for those are brain-busted for the story contest should check these out for ideas) I get them from fanfiction.net.
