Novalee stands in Alice's room the next morning, watching as Alice does Bella's makeup force wedding. Bella has dark bags under her eyes from lack of sleep, Nova knew what wouldn't pass with alive.

"What did I say about beauty sleep?" Alice asks scoldingly.

"Bad dream," Bella claims.

"Need some help?" Rosalie asks as the pregnant girl enters, knowing Novalee is crappy with beauty stuff, Esme did her hair and makeup.

"Really?" Bella asks, kind of surprised.

"Please," Rosalie scoffs. "I'm not offended by your choice of groom."

"Just my lack of respect for humanity," Bella comments.

"Essentially," Rosalie ,uses as she gets started on Bella's hair.

"Ah, weddings," Alice coos as she looks at her sisters. "They bring everyone together."

Once Rosalie is done sigh Bella's hair, the Swan girl looks different. She looks stunning. Novalee watches as a woman enters. She guesses its Renee, Bella's mom.

"Oh, my gosh!" Renee gasps. "You look so beautiful!" She's crying, the woman's mascara is running. "Crap, my mascara..." Nova holds out a tissue. "Thanks," Renee says. "Charlie! Get in here!"

"Are you sure? I don't wanna..." Charlie enters, the girls all cask at him in a suit, Bella smiles. "I know, I know. I look hot."

"We thought you needed something blue," Renee says as she opens a box, it holds a beautiful hair piece.

"And something old..." Charlie adds. "Besides your mother."

"Thanks," Renee says sarcastically.

"It was grandma Swan's," Charlie informs his daughter.

"We added the sapphires," Renee coos.

"Wow Guys, it's so beautiful," Bella gushes. "Thank you, so much."

"It's your first family heirloom," Renee coos. "You can pass it to your daughter, and her daughter."

Novalee smiles before she goes to find Jasper. She finds him standing alone in the kitchen, and she walks up.

"Jasper," Novalee speaks as she is right in front of him.

"You look stunning, Miss Morningstar," Jasper kisses the back of her hand, and hears her heartbeat pick up. "Edward told me about your feelings last night."

"He had said he would," Novalee replies as the two walk into the backyard to find their seats. "What do you think? You know... Of my feelings?"

"I'm glad you feel the same way," Jasper says as he has Novalee sit beside him. "Would you like to be my girlfriend?"

"I would love that."

"It's about time," Emmett blasts and looks at Jared Cameron. "Where's my $5?"

"You took bets?" Novalee scoffs. "Of course you did... what was the bet?"

"That you'd get together today," Jared replies. "And I lost, because I thought it'd take longer."

Emma hugs her mom, happy for her, then she hugs Jasper. Now a days, Jasper is fine around human blood as long as other vampires don't feel blood lust. Sometimes if more that two vampires feel it, the emotion of blood lust becomes intense and overwhelming, making Jasper slip. That's what happened at Bella's birthday party.

"Here comes the bride," Jasper muses as he smells Bella.

The back doors open and Charlie steps out with Bella. Bella looks absolutely breathtaking. Novalee covers her mouth at the beauty of the girl. Jasper wraps his arms around Nova from behind, his hands rest on her belly. Bella smile at them, and everyone is seated again once Bella is in front of Edward.

The vows were beautiful. So beautiful that Rosalie and Nova become emotional wrecks, sobbing happily. Jasper knows it's of happiness, because he feel their emotions. He smiles softly and the pair before them kiss, and their wedding is final.

Seeing the newlyweds off was enjoyable, now Novalee is in her room with Jasper. He leans in closely toward her, the aroma of her blood filling his nose as he gets closer. His eyes darken, but he's not tempted. Just a little... Hungry. But he actually has control as his cold lips brush against Novalee's warm ones.

"Just kiss me already," Novalee whispers against his lips, smelling like wedding cake.

Jasper doesn't smell the cake, though. All he smells is Novalee's pumping blood as his lips finally meet hers, closing the distance the rest of the way as jasper wraps an arm around her back. As Novalee's heart rate picks up, her blood pumps faster and Jasper throws himself against a wall.

"I'm not strong enough," Jasper whispers as Alice stops outside of the room. "I thought... I thought I was. But your heart rate picked up, your blood pumped faster... I.."

"Shh, shh," Novalee coos as she walks closer, Jasper's eyes are black. "It's okay, Jasper. You did great, considering you just kissed a human."

Jasper brushes a strand of hair behind Novalee's ear, and the aroma of blood fills his nose again. "I can't," he forces out before he storms out of the room.

A tear falls from Novalee's eyes, feeling bad. Alice frowns and she walks in, and she hugs the human. Jasper adores her, but he's scared of hurting Nova.
