Four weeks before her wedding to Edward, Bella is frustrated. She knows there's little-to-no chance of getting him to bend his rules and boundaries now, but there's no harm in fantasizing about what could happen later. So she begins compiling a list of things that she and Edward can do together once they're happily married. She's surprised to find she might be able to cross some things off earlier than she thought...

“This is your wedding, Bella, and it shouldn’t be something you have to merely tolerate.  I want you to want this for you, not because you feel that you owe it to me, Alice or anyone else for that matter!”

Edward grows concerned about Bella in the weeks leading up to their wedding day, as he sees how uncomfortable she is with the idea of a big wedding.  He wants Bella as his wife, but not at the risk of her sanity!  He begins to wonder if there is another option?

Bella is struggling with more than just the thoughts of a fancy wedding; the mere idea of marriage is causing her to stress...

"Nothing about my relationship with Edward was conventional, and I found it hard to reconcile our extraordinary bond with something as staid and traditional as marriage.  I had to tell him though... I cleared my throat, and then stared at the ceiling, unable to meet Edward’s gaze as I spoke the words that would undoubtedly break his heart.  “Maybe I do have some misgivings,” I mumbled, so low and so quickly that it would have been unintelligible to anyone not equipped with supernatural hearing skills."
