Alice was so focused on Bella when she came back to Forks that she didn't see Edward's decision to go to Italy. In fact, she didn't see anything until it was too late.

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...

Thanks to Mandi, aka m81170, for the great banner!

This story takes place in Eclipse when Riley goes to Bella’s room to gather her belongings for Victoria. This is what could have happened if Bella had arrived while he was still there, and the events following. Written pre-Breaking Dawn, so that book will be disregarded here. This will include my idea of how the series would have ended.

Preview Chapter 8:

His eyes were now sinister and dark.  He was leaning down by my shins, holding them close to his head.  It felt good to have his cold breath against my heated skin.  He was kissing my leg and I vaguely put two and two together.  He was why my body was feeling so strange.  The smile that played on my lips when I first saw him quickly disappeared.  The pain.  What was that?  It felt like a vacuum had latched on and was stealing the wind from my lungs, the beats from my heart, the acid from my stomach.  I was being robbed of life.  

His eyes quickly flickered over mine, but he must not have liked what he saw, as he clenched his eyes shut quickly.  His face was abnormally calm for someone who was slowing killing me, but I loved it anyway.

What if Edward wasn't single when he met Bella? Will he stay with his mate out of loyalty and obligation or will he take a chance and pursue true love? AU for the first book.

I had always viewed my existence since changing into a vampire as being like a starry night; mostly darkness but with a few scattered bright spots. I had thus far only been able to escape the tedium and misery of this life with a modicum of sanity due to the rare occasions that I was able to make my mate happy.

That was before. Before the Gods of Fate had intervened and made a mockery of my existence, chewing it up and spitting out the pieces. Before Bella Swan had moved to town and I proved unable just to leave her alone. Before my relationship with my mate violently combusted in an act of sadistic pleasure. Now, the storm clouds had rolled in and blocked out all the stars, and my life was a grey, depressing mess.

Rated for some swearing and lemons later on.
