The Girl Who Survived

Black Velvet

"Madilyn must have been a very beautiful bride." Rosalie said walking into the room with a photo album in hand. Bella will like this.

"Look there's Madilyn in her wedding dress." Rosalie said and Alice came up next to her. Bella crossed her arms further away and hummed loudly.

"She really was a beautiful bride." Emmett said out loud and Jasper moved his head closer to see the pictures.

"Wow there's Edward and Madilyn at the altar." Emmet pointed and Jason poked his head in with the others as well.

"What's wrong with your hair Edward?" Emmet asked looking more closely at the picture and then at Edward.

Bella hurried out of the room and I saw Rosalie grinning widely. Edward shakes his head to Rosalie and went after Bella.

"Rosalie." Carlisle said further.

"What? It's not my fault if she doesn't last." Rosalie said rolling her eyes and Alice nudged her on the shoulder.

"Mad Madi are you going to go back to Italy at all?" Emmet asked sitting on the chair across from me.

"I don't know, I guess not." I said, looking at the photo album that Rosalie kept next to me and flipping through the pictures.

"Strange that Alec hasn't come to you or even tried to contact you." Alice said sitting across from Rosalie.

"Those witch twins can ski back to where they came from." Emmett said and Jasper chuckled.

"I would have arranged your wedding, except Aro would have definitely wanted to hold it in Volterra." Alice said pointing the picture at Rosalie. I watched without saying anything and Emmet started grinning.

"Don't now Alice. You startle Madilyn with that talk." Emmet said.

"Shut up Emmet." Alice said rolling her eyes.

"You're going to be hurry Madi. Edward is already getting married for the second time." Emmett said and I stared at him with a fake smile.

"Hahah Emmet."

"Think about what kind of Volturi the wedding would be like, there in the castle." Rosalie said looking up.

"A large hall and hundreds of vampires." Alice said with a smile.

"A buffet for vampires." Emmet said earning a chuckle from Jasper and Jason.

"It would certainly be a proper old-fashioned wedding." Jasper said.

"How would Alec propose." Rosalie said.

"He's so rich he'd definitely take Madilyn to Paris." Alice said.

"Okay. No, too goofy." Emmet replied with a laugh. I rolled my eyes at them.

"Okay guys. Me and Alec are not together. He's made that very clear in these two months as well." I said out loud.

"Fate will bring you together again. Maybe not now, but maybe in 100 years. The time wasn't right, but the right time will come." Alice said looking at me and Rosalie nodded.

"You two are soul mates." Rosalie added.

"Perhaps." I mumbled looking at my wedding photo.

"Didn't Marcus sense it?" Emmet asked looking at me and Alice.

"Yes, he sensed it and Alec felt it too." Alice said.

"The right time will come and we will have one more wedding." Jasper said with a smile.

I looked at the picture with a smile where I was in a black velvet wedding dress and a smile was on my face.

"Why did you wear a black wedding dress?" Emmet ask.

"You don't always have to be white." Rosalie said looking at her husband.

"It was a great dress." I said.

"Black wedding." Jasper said.

"Exactly." I answered.

"Why wasn't Jason at your wedding?" Jasper asked looking to his side.

"I had other things at the time and I couldn't get there." Jason replied with a smile.

"You didn't miss much." I said grinning at him.

"Undoubtedly." He answered back.

The door opened and Edward walked in first followed by Bella.

"Do you still have that album?" He asked sitting down.

"Sure, we reminisce about the old gold times." Rosalie said with a grin on her face glancing at Bella.

"Put it away already." Edward said but Bella opened her mouth. "I want to see it." Bella said walking over to us.

"You can look but not touch." Rosalie said making room for Bella who sat next to her and Alice. Rosalie went through the pictures again and Bella stared in silence. Edward's gaze was fixed on Bella and her face. Bella smiled at the pictures.

"Madilyn was a beautiful bride." She said looking at me with a small smile on her face. Alice gave Edward a small glance and they continued to scroll through the pictures. Carlisle and Esme joined and the whole group of us gathered to spend the evening and reminisce about old events from years ago.
