Riley Swan has no idea what was coming for her in this new town with her sister, she just knew that Bella has made a promise to protect her, and then they ended up surrounded by the supernatural...

"A wedding?" Riley stuttered on her words as she sat with Bella in the flowery meadow that Edward had proposed to Bella in a few months prior, Riley was left with her mouth slightly open as she took it in, Bella getting married? To Edward? Only being 18? "What did dad say?"
"He said it was okay, if I was sure I wanted this and that if I loved him" Bella stated, nodding her head slowly as she remembered his words, and Riley smiled at her sister gently. "But, I want to know what you think about it, because you're my sister and my best friend-wether you like it or not"
Riley let out a giggle at her sisters words, the world seeming so much brighter than a few weeks ago when they were fighting against new born vampires, it was happy place where they were all starting up their new lives. Riley had been working in the hospital, often seen in the children's wards, comforting and reading to them as she watched over them in the break room.
Bella and Edward were closer than ever, apparently secretly planning a wedding behind Riley's back, alongside the wolves. The sad thing was that she probably wasn't allowed to tell anyone yet, as Bella marrying Edward would mean the ultimate decision would happen-Bella would fake her death and move away for Charlie's lifetime, only being able to see Riley in small visits or phone calls.
It sounded horrible, but Riley knew that it was what Bella wanted more than anything, so she wasn't going to stand in her way.
"So, do we have your blessing?" Bella asked carefully, noticing that her sister had day dreamed off onto the bushes in the corner of the meadow, and Riley spun to her with a grin.
"Are you kidding! I'm actually going to officially have the Cullen's in my family!" She let out in a squeal, before she jumped forwards to hug her older sister, who returned the hug happily.

"Okay, never thought I'd be one to say it, but....I'm jealous of Riley's calligraphy skills" Athena grumbled as she was sat at the Cullen's table with the girls, who were currently making up some invitations to the wedding (being sectioned off for those who knew the guests best, which left Riley with the wolves). "I would frame that if I was sent an invitation"
"Just practice for her own wedding" Esme offered a playful smile as she looked over at the youngest girl, who tried to hide her blush as she focused on her writing.
"She'll probably have even better handwriting by then" Athena complained, she was currently writing some to her side of the family that knew Bella (or were related), she hated the idea of inviting her parents as she knew that they either wouldn't come, or they'd judge the whole time and spread rumours.
"I hope so, this is starting to loom sloppy" Riley sighed as she looked down at the one she was writing to the Clearwater's, seeing as they were a close family and part of the elders (Sue). Athena scoffed at her cousin, throwing an envelope at her over the table.
"Guys!" Alice warned as she placed down her pen in distaste to what they were doing. "We have to finish these tonight! Otherwise they'll get it later...which would be less officiant"
"Careful Bella, you've got yourself a wedding planning-zilla" Athena smirked, only for Alice to seat at her arm, which caused her to let out a yelp. "Alright! I'm working!"
Riley let out a laugh at her family before she slipped the bow dry paper into the envelope and sealed it shut, writing on the 'Clearwater's' on the front before she but it to the side, signifying where the letter would end up. Alice had made up five different piles, the Rez, forks, Cullen's family and friends, Bella's family and other.
"Riley, stop staring and move on to the next one" Alice snapped at the younger girl, and Riley sent her a small smile as she grabbed the next card, noticing who this one was going to be made for.
