The Forgotten Twin

Chapter 3

Rhea's POV

Twenty-four long hours later and we were on an island. Jas told me that Carlisle bought this island for Esme and that's why it's called Isle Esme. Everything was stunning. The back door led right to the water and luscious trees surrounded the property giving the feeling of being secluded from the rest of the world.

"So what should we do first?" I asked.

Jas set the last bag on the floor by the front door. "Well, we could go explore the town or spend time on the beach?"

"Let's go explore."

I started to walk towards the door but a laugh stopped me. "You might want to change first," Jas said through his laugh.

I looked down and sure enough, I was in a pair of pajama shorts and a baggy t-shirt. A familiar heat rushed to my cheeks. Jas grabbed my hand and one of the bags and let me to the master bedroom. He planted a kiss on my cheek before leaving the room. I set the bag on the bed and dug around. I grabbed a black, short-sleeve, crop top, a pair of light blue overalls, and a pair of black tennis shoes. I quickly got changed and met Jas by the front door. He had also changed from his lounge pants and sweatshirt to a pair of tan cargo shorts, a white t-shirt with a black overshirt.

He took my hand and let me to a waiting boat. He drove us to the mainland and we spent the day exploring. We went to a bunch of different shops getting trinkets and other things for our family back home. We tried some authentic Caribbean food for lunch and took a bunch of pictures in front of different museums, architectural pieces, funny signs, and even the sunset.

Once the sun went down the busy streets turned into a party. People were dancing in the streets. Some even held torches, but those people looked like they were in a parade. Eventually Jas and I found a little cafe to sit at and people watch.

"Did you have a good day?" Jas asked.

"Everything was perfect," I said, tearing my eyes away from the people in the street.

"Ready to go back to the house?"

"Yeah."

We stood up, Jas placed some money on the table, and we walked back to the boat hand in hand. One quick boat ride later and we were back at the house.

"I had the best day," I said as we entered the house.

"It's not over yet," Jas said.

Before I had a chance to question what he meant the doorbell rang. I looked over at him and he just nodded his head towards the door. I walked towards the door and cautiously opened it.

To my surprise a familiar face greeted me. "Rose?" I asked. "What are you doing here?" She was holding a black dress bag. "What's in the bag?"

"Your wedding dress... well, a few options," she said coming in.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"Marry me?" Jas asked.

"I already said yes," I reminded.

"Tomorrow. Marry me tomorrow?"

"What?... Are you crazy? We can't put together a wedding in a night."

"Actually we can," Rose interrupted. "I'll fill her in. You go get your fitting done then meet us on the beach," Rose commanded Jas.

Jas walked over, placed a kiss on my forehead, then followed the marching orders. Rose dragged me off to the master bedroom. She placed the black bag on the bed and opened it up. Inside sat three beautiful vintage dresses. As I tried each one on she told me about Jas's plan. She told me how before we left he set this up with his family and my dad. He was going to lure me to this beautiful island under the ruse of a vacation while his family would organize everything. Since Rose knew my style it only took a few days to get everything ordered and shipped here. It all arrived today while Jas and I were sightseeing. She showed me pictures of everything that she had picked. Honestly, I couldn't have done a better job if I had planned for months.

I picked the last dress I tried on. Rose had to go get everything ready for tomorrow and she ordered me to get some sleep. She told me that my dad as well as Carlisle and Esme would be there tomorrow to help get everything set up.

I stood on the patio outside the master bedroom watching Rose give orders. She must have been channeling her inner Alice. Jas and Emmett were setting up chairs and the structure for the altar. Jas looked in my direction and I gave him a small wave. Rose caught our interaction and I could hear her scolding Jas from my place on the patio. I silently laughed and walked back into the room. I got dressed in my pajamas and crawled into bed. It was weird trying to sleep without Jas. Usually, we would stay together and we would both sleep better. Eventually, I fell into a deep sleep.

AN:

I know it's a smaller chapter but the next one will be longer and it will be the wedding we have all been waiting for. I probably won't do all of Breaking Dawn pt. 1 and I won't be doing Breaking Dawn pt. 2.
