So close no matter how far
Couldn't be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
I never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don't just say
And nothing else matters
Nothing Else Matters - Metallica
Epilogue
A few months after that horrible confrontation with Leah, we were in Alaska, and sitting in the dining room of the new house Esme had done up.
I was sitting across from Emmett. He had such a serious look on his face, I couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, get ready!" Esme laughed as well.
Both of us put our elbows on the table and gripped each other's hands.
"Begin," she announced, letting go of our hands.
It was hard, Emmett was strong, but I was stronger.
"And Bella wins!" Jasper laughed.
"Well little sis, we'll try that again next year," Emmett winked at me, but was unable to keep the bitterness out of his voice.
"Well, Emmett, she did say she'd beat you at arm wrestling," Rose said, slipping her arm around him while smiling at me.
Later I was in Edward's new room, sitting on his lap, listening to some old jazz music.
"I'm so glad you did that, I'll never forget the look on Emmett's face." Edward laughed, his voice sounding a little smug.
"I bet I could beat you too!" I teased.
"You're not as strong as you think."
"Oh really, what do you mean by that?" I asked, confused slightly.
"Well, if you can remember I got you into bed before the wedding night, even though you said you wouldn't be budged, and I also got you to marry me, so I win!" he laughed.
"Hmm... I guess we were a little more traditional than we thought."
"I really doubt that."
"But then again, it is once in a blue moon that a girl falls in love with a vampire." I said closing my eyes, snuggling into his chest, with a smile on my face, because I knew I had really won.
AN: It was an epilogue, it was never meant to be long. Thank you for reading :) I would like to hear feedback if you have it.
