All That Mattered

August 15, 2016

Just an idea that popped into my head the other day, hope you enjoy!

Summary: What would happen if instead of Edward falling for Bella, he fell for Angela? And what would happen if the Cullen's met Bella in Alaska along with the Denali's? What if Bella was Rosalie's mate instead? What would happen if Bella was shipped off to the army after her father died of cancer? What would the reunion look like?

One-shot for now unless you want me to continue.

I sat waiting, my leg bouncing with nerves and excitement, I was finally headed home. My fingers tightened on the letter I held in my hand, her last letter,

I miss you more and more every day. The pain is getting almost unbearable. When are you coming home?

I love you, Stay safe.

Rose

I could understand, my chest ached constantly now, and it wasn't because of the wounds I received. No it was because I haven't seen touched or heard my mate in over two years.

At the thought of it the pain spiked, my hand automatically landing over my heart. But even now, as we flew back to the real world, I could feel the pain slowly dulling.

Finally, after what felt like the longest plane ride in existence the wheels touched down. I felt light then I had since the day I was shipped off. I sighed as they opened the ramp of the cargo plane, it almost smelled the same as Alaska, but there was something off, something missing.

I was knocked out of my thoughts by Tank or William Turner. "come on Brat." He laughed "time to go get your girl." He pushed me off the plane. I glared at him before smiling "Yeah time to get my Rose." I said with a wave at the rest of my team "I'll see you guys soon! Say hi to the families for me!" I shouted. They nodded shouting "see you Serge!"

I dint pay them any mind though, I was focused on my Rose now. I ran over to my bike that they had unloaded and grabbed the keys from my duffle bag. I revved the engine and smiled. If I speed I could get there just before she got out. I smiled racing down the highway.

I pulled up to the high school a few minutes before they got out and parked myself in front of the steps leading down from the entrance. I cut the engine and got off the bike leaning against it as I waited.

She had told me that they had had to move about six months ago. People were starting to notice that they didn't age so they had moved here, a small town named Forks, Washington. I didn't mind though, I was from the small town of Denali, Alaska, and the forest smelled similar enough, it lacked the clear crisp smell of snow but I'm sure that come winter that would be fixed. It wasn't like I had anyone back home anyways, not after Charlie died.

I was shaken from my thoughts by the bell ringing and I smiled and waited my knee bouncing again.

I watched as kids started to file out, they gave me weird and curious looks but they kept their distance when they noticed my army Fatigues and the duffle bag tied to the back of my bike. Plus, I'm sure I looked pretty imposing not to mention intimidating with my arms crossed over my chest and my aviators on with a smirk, I waited.

Finally, after a few minutes that felt like they lasted a lifetime, I spotted her glowing blonde hair.

She made her way through the crowd of students and I noticed how she sped up a few seconds after she came outside. Finally, she was able to break free of the crowd, she spotted me immediately and I smiled at seeing her again, her golden eyes bright with happiness. I held out my arms in invitation as I stood up straight. She smiled blindingly at me before she launched into my arms.

I caught her in the air spinning happily around before I pulled her close her legs automatically wrapping themselves around my waist not wanting me to let her go. Her arms wrapped around my neck and mine around her waist holding her tightly. She buried her face into my neck breathing deeply. I felt her smile against me, relaxing and knowing I finally came back to her. She was shaking as silent sobs racked her body, her fingers tangled into my hair pulling me still closer. I bent down resting my fore head on her shoulder, breathing in her scent deeply.

"I'm here Rose, and I'm not going to leave you again I promise." I whispered. She let out a shaky breath nodding her head vigorously into my neck. I pulled back and put my hand on her cheek my thumb caressing her cheek bone, wiping away the nonexistent tears. "I love you Rosie." I whispered.

Her smile grew whispering "I love you too, Bella" before she leaned forward connecting our lips. I didn't care that people were watching us with shocked looks, or that some were openly ogling us. I had my Rose and that was all that mattered.


let me know if you want me to keep going with this one!
