It's the Occasion!

Prom.

Four letters spelling out the most elaborate time for a teenage girl in high school. The time when we get to go out all night with our friends. Our real taste of what it's like to be something like a princess.

Alice helped me slip into my backless royal blue dress. Rosalie had just put the finishing touches on my hair and Alice had done my makeup. I was officially dolled up and ready to go. Earlier we had gone and got our nails done with Angela, Lauren, and Jessica. It felt good to have a girls day preparing for prom. We were especially excited.

I slipped my freshly pedicured feet into my silver strapped heels and did a once over in my new full length mirror. I couldn't wait to see the look on Paul's face.

"Here Bella," Alice said handing me a small gift. "I know you already got one for tonight but I couldn't resist when I saw it," she beamed.

I opened the small package and inside was the most beautiful sapphire necklace I've ever seen. It's was a seashell with tiny sapphires embedded within set in a white gold frame. It was absolutely perfect.

"Here, this one's from Emmett and I," Rosalie said handing me an unwrapped palm size box.

As Alice helped hook the necklace on, I opened the gift. I couldn't help the gasp that escaped me. They were sapphire earrings with a teardrop shaped royal blue pearl. I wanted to cry at the gesture but didn't dare risk ruining Alice's hard work. They matched my dress beautifully.

"They're amazing you guys. Both gifts are truly stunning," I said.

I put the earrings in and looked myself over once more.

"We thought you would love them," Alice smiled.

"The blue was Alice's idea," Rosalie smiled.

"Thank you," I said with a smile.

We finished up and made our way down the stairs. Emmett, Caleb, and Paul were waiting patiently for us down in the living room with Dr. and Mrs. Cullen and Charlie.

Esme had a camera ready when we entered the room. Paul's eyes lit up like a child on Christmas morning when we finally made our way into the living room.

"You look... absolutely beautiful Isabella," Paul whispered.

Emmett patted him on the back.

"What's it like dating a girl with a tail," he whispered.

Rosalie popped him in the head and Paul just chuckled good naturedly.

"What," Emmett asked.

I giggled. We each posed for our pictures, some serious and some goofy.

"Bella," Charlie said, as we made our way to the door. "You look beautiful," he smiled.

Was that a tear in his eye?

"Thanks dad," I smiled.

"I put a new can of pepper spray in your bag," he said with a half smile.

"Dad," I whispered.

"What," he asked innocently.

We made our way to the limo waiting outside. I felt like a princess in my dress next to Paul in his new suit.

We stopped to pick up Angela and Jasper on the way and headed to the school. Prom was being held in the gymnasium of Forks high. It was the only place big enough for the event.

Everything was decked out in the James Bond theme Eric Yorkie chose. The music was loud and the bass was thumping. Paul grabbed my arm gently.

"Wanna go someplace private," he asked.

"Sure," I replied.

We made our way outside. It was twilight, my favorite time of day. Paul led me to the gazebo trailed with twinkling lights. It's was beautiful. As a slow song came on he pulled me closer and I rested my head against his chest.

"You have no idea how absolutely stunning you look in this dress Isabella," his voice was husky.

I smiled up at him.

"You look dapper in your suit as well," I said.

He really did look amazing in his crisp white shirt.

"So... what happens if you were to get bitten by a vampire," he asked curiously.

"I don't really know. I think I would turn but I'm not sure," I replied.

"Would the doc know," he asked.

"I doubt it. Why are you so worried," I asked.

"I thought I was going to lose you back in Vancouver," he said, his voice strained.

"I guess I'll have to find out. Maybe my sylph knows if she ever speaks to me again," I replied.

"You never explained how that works by the way," he grinned.

"I don't really know myself," I replied.

"So if you turned would you be like a hybrid of some sort," he wondered.

"Maybe. It makes sense," I said.

"I don't want you to ever put yourself in danger like that again," he whispered kissing the top of my head.

"What happened to Victoria," I asked, suddenly remembering her.

"She fled. As soon as we had him she bolted," he replied.

"So she's gone," I asked.

"We won't be hearing from her for a long time," he said with confidence.

A part of me wanted to believe him, but I knew she was out there, somewhere, watching me.

Waiting...

I just hoped that when the time came, we'd be ready, I'd be ready for her.

The End of Book One!
