Enjoy the last chapter! Since its the last chapter I thought it would be fun to paraphrase some of my favorite quotes from the twilight saga. I hope you enjoy the little twist I gave them. Please write a review to let me know how you liked the story now that its all posted. As always, Twilight Saga and its characters belong to Stephenie Meyer.

Jake heard her come out of the bathroom but her bedroom door remained closed. It took everything he had not to knock it down and go after her. After a few minutes, she finally came out. He remained silent, watching her. He didn't know what to say. Ness looked like she had cried the entire time she was in the shower. She sat on the loveseat by the couch before she started.

"I don't know what to say Jake. I just can't believe you would so something so deceitful. Do you understand that you purposely hurt me? You hurt me!" Her voice broke and it ripped his heart to hear her pain.

"I know. I just wanted you to have this opportunity. John Hopkins was the natural path your life would have taken, if… if the world was the way it was supposed to be, if I wasn't in the picture. I needed you to understand all your options. I thought I could give you the opportunity to see what you could do and then I could come back and see how I fit into your new life. I didn't want you to loose..." She interrupted him.

"I did know my options and you're the only thing it would hurt me to lose. You are my life! I thought you understood that!" She snapped at him.

"I'm sorry. I heard your doubts and I thought you were just scared. I thought you were scared of this life and what it would do to us. I wanted you to see there was nothing to be afraid of. I was going to come back and you would have seen that it was no big deal. This life would have been effortless for us — comfortable, easy as breathing. Just like it was before." He told her honestly. She looked at him in disbelief.

"And you thought the best way to show me that was to lie to me and to hurt me? You actually believed that I would come here and see this life as something more than moonless night? I've been empty! It was like my heart was gone — like I was hollow. I was gone, Jacob! It was like I'd left everything that was inside me there in that forest with you." She hated that her words were so true. She could never go back to a life where he didn't exist and it scared her. He was everything to her and her life was a hopeless nightmare without him. Jake's tears escaped when he heard the pain she went through.

"I'm so sorry. I don't know what I was thinking but when Dr. Volturi talked to me and suggested that I let you go, it just seemed like it was the only way to get you here. I really thought I was doing the right thing by you. I didn't want you to look back and regret your decision. I wanted you to be happy and I should have trusted you enough to make that choice for yourself. I should have known better than to listen to someone like him."

"So, this was Aro's idea?" Her heart was relieved to hear this. This plan just didn't seem like something Jake could have come up with for himself. She was glad she knew him well enough to know he didn't have those types of deceitful thoughts.

"Yes but I'm the one who's at fault. I'm the idiot who actually thought hurting the woman I loved was the right thing to do. I should have never lied to you like that. I've always known I don't deserve you. I know that now more than ever but I'm still selfish enough to want you to take me back." Ness didn't say anything so he continued.

"I've been miserable without you. I've been drinking, missing work. I've never been so unhappy in my life. I was thinking of you constantly, seeing your face in my mind, every second of every day. I need you, baby, please… please forgive me. I'm completely lost without you." He begged her. He wanted to go over to her but he was too afraid to approach her. He stayed glued to the sofa and waited for her response.

"I don't know if I can be with someone who can lie to me and manipulate me." Ness told him. She was still felt betrayed, even if she knew in her heart that he did it out of love for her. Jake looked down at the floor and nodded in defeat. Ness looked at the slumped shoulders and silent tears of the man she loved and it made her chest hurt to see him like that. As angry and disappointed as she was, she ached to be near him, to comfort him.

He was wrong to manipulate her but he had done it out of love. She was angry, she was hurt, but that didn't change the fact that he was her whole heart. She could not ignore the fact that she loved this man or that they were having a baby together. This baby was the most important thing, now; the most important thing ever. She had to push her anger and fears aside. She had to do this for their child and for herself, because when it was all said and done, he had just made a mistake.

Falling in love with Jake had been like jumping off one of the cliff sides at LaPush beach. It was fast, hard, thrilling, and completely life changing. When he broke up with her it had been as if she was drowning, like she had fallen so deep into the water that she didn't know up from down or left from right. She looked at his distraught face and she realized he was drowning too. He came here to rescue her and she was letting them both sink. She couldn't let him kill himself in this abyss.

New tears formed in her eyes as she walked over to him to kneel in front of him. He leaned back to look at her and she hugged him around the waist. He quickly surrounded her with his protective arms. Her heart beat with excitement and she felt the whole world shift back into place.

"We're going to be parents Jake." She started again. "So I'm going to forgive you and you are going to swear to me that you will never do this to me again." A small breathless sob escaped his lips before he kissed her head several times. She looked up into his eyes and he felt a wash of relief as he saw that they were no longer empty. He became lost looking into those eyes he loved so much. Like he was staring into the sun. Now that he had her in his arms he realized the power of her hold. It was permanent and unbreakable. It was as if every other connection that tethered him to this earth was gone. Like gravity itself was gone and it wasn't the earth holding him there anymore. It was her. This whole time, it was her and nothing mattered to him more than her and their baby.

"I swear it." He kissed her forehead softly. "I love you and I swear that you will not regret this decision." He told her. She was awestruck by the ferocity of his voice when he said this.

"I love you too. I will never regret being with you. And I've never regretted doing the right thing." She told him. He saw her eyes were full of love and forgiveness causing his heart to swell with happiness.

"You're right. Every time you do the right thing, I am more and more grateful that you exist and that you are in my life. You're an angel, you know that? God sent you to me and like all sinners I didn't know what to do with something so precious and so special, but now I do."

"And what is that?" She asked him with a loving smile.

"I am going to love you, and cherish you, and put you and our baby before anything else. I am going to listen to my heart and talk to when I have doubts or concerns. I will make decisions with you and everything we do from now on, we'll do together. You are mine and I am yours. Always." Ness cried even more when he kissed her after that speech.

"Jake?" She said as soon as their lips parted.

"Yes." He said smiling as he cradled her face.

"We are having a baby and I want us to be a family. A real family..." Her eyes looked frightened and insecure which made him worry. "I want to be your wife." Jake realized why she hesitated and he shook his head. How could she still doubt him?

"Baby, I told you that I didn't want to marry you it was the biggest most blasphemous lie I've ever told. I looked into your eyes and I saw that you believed it. I never was a good actor. I still don't know how you believed it or how you let one word break your faith in me. You honestly believed that I didn't want you anymore — as if there were any way that I could exist without needing you in my life? Listen to me very carefully this time, you beautiful stubborn woman, because I need you to never doubt this again." He pulled her face closer to his so that he could look straight into her eyes. The strength and conviction in his eyes left her speechless. "Renesmee… I. Love. You. I want to be your husband, more than anything in the world." Jake let go of her and reached into his pocket. Ness gasped when she saw a ring box.

"I was playing with this when you father came to yell at me, yesterday. I've had it with me ever since we broke up. This is what I should have done that day. In my heart, this is what I wanted to do that day." He got up and pulled her up with him, then, there in her living room, he got on one knee and opened the ring box. Ness gasped when she saw it. She recognized it from one of the picture's in Jake's apartment. It was his mother's ring.

"Oh Jake..."

"Renesmee Carlie Cullen, I love you more than anything in this world, would you do me the extraordinary honor of marrying me?" Ness smiled and nodded, unable to speak from the emotions she was feeling. He slipped the ring on her finger and kissed it once it was on her hand. She stroked his face and he stood again. Jake embraced her, needing to be near her.

"I love you. So much..." She told him knowing that no, matter happened between them, this was one thing that would never change.

"I love you too." He told her before he kissed her. All the months of separation ignited in a passion that succumbed them both. Without breaking their passionate kiss, Jake picked Ness up into his arms and walked them to the bedroom where we he made passionate love to his future wife.

The following morning, Jake woke up when he heard the front door open and close. He had finally slept through the night now that Ness was in his arms. He carefully slid off the bed so that he wouldn't disturb her. When he walked outside, he saw Claire and Quill in the kitchen. Claire was making coffee.

"Well, I guess they made up after all. Long night, bro?" Quill teased. Jake punched him playfully and eyed the bags of food on the kitchen counter.

"Did you two just get in?" Jake asked when he realized they were wearing the same clothes from the previous night.

"Yeah. We lost track of time waiting for you two and we stayed up all night talking in the park." Quill told him. Claire continued setting up the table without saying a word. His one experience with Claire was enough to let him know that Claire wasn't the silent type. She was still angry at him. After Ness described to him the condition she was in before Claire got to her, he understood why Claire was so mad.

"Claire?"

"What?" She said not looking at him.

"Thank you, Claire. Thank you for taking care of my girl. Last night, Ness told me everything you did for her and you probably saved our baby's life." He told her. Claire finally stopped what he was doing at looked at him. As much as she wanted to be angry at him, she knew he was the key to her friend's happiness. All she wanted was for Nessie to be happy.

"That girl in there is basically my sister. I will always look out for her. Just make sure you do things right this time and make her happy because if I ever see her like that again, I am chopping your dick off. Got it?"

"She means it too." Quill warned.

"I got it. From this point on, my life's mission is to make her happy and keep her safe."

"Good. Now have a seat while I finish setting breakfast." She told him and he sat on the counter stool next to Quill. Claire set a mug full of hot coffee in front of Jake.

"It smells as amazing as it looks. You did all of this by yourself?" Jake asked.

"Of course. When you're best friends with a Cullen you learn a thing or two about cooking and setting up a nice spread. Plus there is an amazing organic bakery close by. They have the best bagels I've ever tasted." At that moment. Ness came out of her room rubbing her eyes.

"Good morning beautiful." Jake told her and opened his arm to coax her towards him. She walked over and leaned against his warm body. He hugged her tightly and kissed the top of her head. He tried to get up so that she could sit but she stopped him.

"I think I smell my favorite bagels." She said.

"You sure do. You can all have a seat at the table. I'm just going to make some breakfast smoothies and I'm done." Claire had set up a buffet at the dining table. She proceeded to setting up the bagels on a platter as they sat down.

"Marcus gave me the day off and set up an appointment for me with Chelsea's gynecologist. Does anyone want to go with us?" Ness asked them as they all sat.

"Can I?" Claire asked excitedly. Ness laughed. 'She's laughing!' Claire thought as she finally heard a real laugh leave her friend's lips.

"Of course! How can I go see the doctor without my wife?" Both women giggled while the men shrugged at each other. "You want to come too Quill?" Ness asked him.

"I wouldn't miss it." He told her with a smile. They all finished eating and got ready to meet the new addition to the family.

Jake had never been so excited to hear a thump in his entire life. He held onto Ness's hand as if he was holding on to dear life. Ness had tears in her eyes and he gently wiped them away with his free hand, before he took her face and kissed her lips. Everything else disappeared at that moment, Claire crying and holding Quill's hand, Quill's overjoyed smile, the doctor's explanations of their baby's healthy condition. Everything disappeared except each other and that gentle 'thump, thump' in the background.

Ness gave her two weeks' notice the following day. Aro and Caius were extremely displeased but Marcus stepped in to appease his two friends. Marcus even offered to help Ness get a practicum closer to home, once the baby was born. Jake stayed with Ness for a few weeks until she got everything finalized with the hospital. He took over Claire's position as 'house wife' during Ness's last weeks in Maryland. Claire left explicit instructions for him as to how she wanted her Nessie to be cared for during her absence. Jake was used to giving commands, not taking them, but felt so grateful towards Claire that he only smiled and nodded as she gave her instructions. He sent Claire home with Quill, who was more than happy to escort her back to Washington.

Ness's few months in the brain surgery program made her realize that sleepless nights and self-neglect was not the life for her. With Marcus's and her family's help, she consulted some of the local hospitals and worked things out in Seattle so that she could do her specialization in emergency medicine and internal medicine after the baby was born. She liked the idea of taking over her grandfather and working with her dad at the practice. She was also happy that she could continue offering her services to the people at the reservation. With the tribe council's blessing, Jake and Ness found a piece of land at LaPush were they decided to build their permanent home to live in when Ness finished her specialization. With grandma Esme's help, Ness was hoping to have it finished by the time she was done. Esme used to be an interior designer so the house turned out beautifully.

It turned out that emergency medicine was exactly what she wanted all along. Her surgeries were more exciting because she was learning to heal the entire body not just one area. Jake and Ness lived together in Jake's apartment but, after the baby was born, they moved to her condo in Seattle while Ness worked on her specialization. Jake and Ness welcomed home their first son about 7 months after, they returned to Washington. They named him Edward Jacob Black, after her father and after Jake. EJ, as they liked to call him, was the light of their lives. He was beloved by everyone in the family and the tribe. Edward and Bella were completely in love with their grandson. He couldn't be more proud of his daughter.

A few short weeks after EJ was born, Jake and Ness had their wedding ceremony. Her grandmother Esme and her aunt Alice had plenty of experience planning parties, shows and events for her husband and sister-in-law's modeling company, so, both women joined forces to create the best wedding the town of Forks had ever seen. Alice had only had one son, Peter, and Rosalie had her adopted son Benjamin and her youngest son Riley, making Renesmee the only girl among the kids. For this reason, her aunt and grandmother outdid themselves to create the most amazing wedding the town had ever seen.

Jacob was impressed as he stood at the end of the aisle next to his father, who was performing the ceremony, and his best friends. He was nervous but when he saw his little niece walking his beautiful son down the aisle in his carriage, all his nerves ebbed away. He had nothing to be nervous about, he was marrying the mother of his child and the woman of his dreams. Ness was a vision in her white dress. It was hard to contain the emotion in his chest when he saw her as her father walked her down the aisle

"Take care of each other." Edward told them. He lifted his daughter's veil and kissed her cheek. With shaky hands he placed his daughter's hand in the hand of his new son before he sat next to his wife. Edward and Bella both held on to each other tightly. Their little girl had grown up entire too fast for them but they couldn't have been more proud.

"You're beautiful." Jake told his future wife. He heard his father start the ceremony but his mind was somewhere else. He kissed Ness's hands one at a time. She smiled at him completely captivated by the love in her future husband's eyes. Neither one of them was really paying attention to what was happening around them. Billy cleared his throat a bit to get their attention when it was time to exchange their vows. They chose traditional vows, the same that their parents had exchanged before them, and their grandparents before that. Billy was glad they chose traditional vows. As he heard his son and his soon to be daughter speak the words that he and his wife Sarah had exchanged, he let out a tear. His Sarah would have loved Ness. Ness was the best thing that ever happened to his son and she had given them a beautiful new grandson. After he pronounced them husband and the two lovers kissed, Billy finally hugged his new daughter.

"Welcome to the family, sweetheart. Thank you for loving my son." He told her. Ness looked at her new father and gave him another hug. "Thanks, dad." She told him happily.

The ceremony was at the beach but the reception was at Carlisle's huge house. Esme and Alice had transformed it into paradise. Everyone they knew was at the reception. Aro, Caius and Marcus were all invited but only Marcus and his family attended. Both Ness and Jake were grateful for that. All of Jake's friends were present including Seth who he still kept in touch with even after the Leah fiasco.

Ness's entire family was part of the wedding party except for Tanya. Tanya's father, Eleazar, and her stepmother, Carmen, asked her to stay home, which Ness was grateful for. Their other two daughters Irina and Kate were present and very supportive of Ness. Irina even caught the bouquet and one of her mother's friend, Laurent, caught the garter. Ness wanted Claire and Quill to catch them but when she saw her insecure cousin flirting with Laurent, she decided she didn't mind. Even though Laurent was about a decade older than Irina, Ness was happy for her.

Everyone talked about what a beautiful wedding it was. Claire was so impressed that she asked Ness's grandmother to plan her wedding to Quill which they intended to have 6 months later. Ness was happy that her best friend had found someone as amazing as Quill. Quill was kind but he never took any crap from his feisty Claire. He found her nagging endearing at they both laughed at each other's idiosyncrasies with loving humor.

About a year after Claire's wedding, both women found out they were pregnant. Quill and Jake spent nine month as their personal slaves and they were rewarded with beautiful little daughters, Clarice Atera and Sarah Isabel Black. The girls were inseparable just as their mothers.

Jake and Ness lived their lived one day at a time. They worked together as a team to raise their children and any other challenge they faced. Ness inevitably built up a reputation as the best surgeon in the state but, with the support of her husband, she was able to manage all of her responsibilities and still have time for her family. Jake kept all the promises he made to Ness. Ness looked back at how it all started with one act, the choice to choose righteousness over selfishness. The choice do what was right, regardless of the consequences. Her bravery was rewarded in a love and happiness that was beyond her wildest dreams. She never once regretted doing the right thing.
