Bella's POV

February.

The following months went by with no hassle at all. We soon enough started a routine. Saturday's-Go to Charlie's.

Sunday's- Hunting, and Dates

Monday-Friday-Whatever we want to do.

It's now February and Jasper and I are awaiting our acceptance letters from college. If I said I wasn't nervous, that would be a lie. I'm so scared that I haven't got in to anywhere and that my dream of becoming a doctor is going down the pan. Carlisle keeps saying I'll be fine and that any college would want to have me.

So then why do I feel like I'm not good enough?

It's a Tuesday morning and the post has just arrived. Jasper shouted me. The others in dining room are waiting for me. I entered the room, hugged Renesmee and sat next to Jasper, holding his hand. By Carlisle were 10 letters; five for me and five for Jasper. It's the moment I've been waiting for since November.

I breathed deeply. I know I don't have to breathe but it defiantly helps with the nerves.

"Okay, the letters are here. Are you ready for them?" Carlisle asked.

I looked at Jasper and then back to Carlisle. I nodded. He handed me and Jasper 5 envelopes.

I slowly opened the first letter. It was from Dartmouth. I didn't get in.

I opened the second one. It was from the University of Washington. I got in!

I opened the third, fourth and fifth. I got into Stanford, and Yale.

"Oh my God!" I shouted.

"What?" the others asked.

"I got into University of Washington, Stanford and Yale!" I screamed.

The others jumped up and pulled me into a hug.

Jasper gave me a soft kiss and told me he was proud of me. Jasper sat down and opened his envelopes.

After he opened them he looked up and smiled.

"I got into University of Washington, Stanford, Yale and Dartmouth." he said.

I pulled him into a massive hug and kissed him passionately.

"I love you Jasper. Well done!" I said to him

"I love you too."

We sat down and faced Carlisle.

"So where do you want to go?" he asked.

"I don't know. University of Washington is so near, it's a brilliant school but so are Stanford and Yale." I said.

"Well would you rather be closer to Charlie or further away?" Carlisle asked.

"Near Charlie I think. Plus it's close for Jake with the pack too. Jasper what do you think?" I asked him.

"I'm happy either way Bella. Wherever you want to go is fine by me." He said.

"Okay, Washington then. Is that okay with you all?" I asked.

"Yes, Bella." I got from the others.

"So it's agreed, we're moving to Seattle. I can contact the hospital and ask for some work. They're not stupid enough to say no. So we shouldn't have any problems at all. Bella, are you going to see Charlie and tell him the good news?" Carlisle asked.

"Yeah I will. Later though, Dad will be at work so he won't be back until five. I'll go to his a bit earlier and cook him dinner. God knows what he's living off now that I'm not living with him anymore." I said.

The others laughed.

"Can I come with you Bella?" Jasper asked.

"Sure. Nessie, do you want to come with us too?" I asked her.

"Please Mom. I haven't seen him in ages. Can Jake come too?" She asked

"Okay. If that's what Jake wants." I said.

"Yay! Okay when can we go?" She asked.

"You want to eat with Charlie too?" I asked her.

"Yes please. Can we have lasagne please?"

"Sure. Charlie has the stuff in, I'll make it when we get there." I said to her.

I turned to Jasper.

"I'm going for a hunt, you want to come too?"

"Yeah," he said.

We stood up and ran out of the house into the woods.

Jasper's POV

I love Bella so much. I'm so glad that we're going to college together. It just seems like a dream come true. I just love the fact that we can go through everything together and end up so strong on top.

If it wasn't for Edward and Alice cheating on us we never would have gotten together and even dreamt about going to medical school. I've never thought of going into medicine. Of course Bella has changed that also.

She makes me dream, she makes me think about things differently. She's amazing. I know that when I'm with Bella I can do absolutely anything. It's an amazing feeling to know I can do so much with my life.

Bella, Renesmee, Jacob and I are currently on our way to Charlie's house to tell him our good news. I can't even think of Charlie's expression when we tell him that his own daughter has been accepted to some of the most Ivy League schools in the country.

I don't understand how I managed to get into Dartmouth and Bella didn't. It just doesn't seem right. Although, when Bella was with Edward he insisted on Dartmouth, so maybe that's a good thing. Start a fresh nothing even liked to Edward in any way apart from the family.

I turned to Bella, realising that now we were only around the corner from Charlie's house.

"Bells?" I asked hesitantly.

"Yes, Jazz?" She said

"Are you okay with the fact that you didn't get into Dartmouth?" I asked her.

"Yeah. I mean Edward was totally for the idea of me going there. But he was so pushy, and in-your-face with everything that I didn't really have a choice. I mean he actually filled in application forms for me, without telling me, wrote my essay's, signed them for me and sent them in. I mean if that isn't being pushy what is?" She asked.

"Wow. He did that? Really?" I asked her shocked that Edward would actually go to those lengths.

"Yeah he did. That's why now I love making my own decisions. Edward always made them for me without any regard to what I actually wanted. I loved him. Yes, but I loathed the fact that he did everything for me. He smothered me." She said.

Wow I never realised he was like that. I always knew he was a brooding vampire and he changed when he met Bella and started dating her. It always seemed intense when she was around. Now I can finally understand their relationship. Strange. Edward the brooding Cullen is into pushing his loves. Maybe he's like that with Alice. Why am I thinking of Alice anyway? She cheated on me with Edward. I don't care about her anymore.

We haven't heard from them since we left. Maybe they're giving us space for ages before they come back and our currently lovely lives come back in full force and destroy whatever relationships we have in this family left.

We pulled up at Charlie's house, and he must have heard the car pull up as he opened the door and opened his arms to Nessie.

Bella and I got out of the car and walked up the path holding hands.

"Hey, dad." she said as she hugged him softly.

"Hey Bells, Hey Jasper, Hi Jake." he said.

"Hey, Charlie." Jacob and I answered.

We walked into the house and sat down in the front room. The table full of old empty beer bottles and pizza boxes.

"Dad are you eating properly?" Bella asked.

"No Bells. I can't cook. You know that." he said honestly.

"Okay, well I'll cook up some stuff for dinner in a bit and I'll make you some meals during the week and bring them round for you." She said.

"Thanks Bells. Now then, what's up?" He asked changing the subject.

"Jasper and I got our acceptance letters back today." She said.

"And..." he pressed on.

"We got into UOW, Stanford and Yale. Jasper also got accepted to Dartmouth. But I want to be near you so we've all decided to go to UOW." She said,

"Wow. You don't have to do that for me Bells." He said

"Yes I do dad. You're not getting any younger and besides it would make me feel better if we were nearby if you needed us. Besides I have eternity to go to Stanford and Yale if I ever decide to go to college again." She said.

"Fair enough, but don't put your life on hold because of me Bella. Please." He asked.

"Okay dad, but I'm still going to UOW. It's been decided, Esme is looking for a house in Seattle as we speak and Carlisle is asking for a job at the hospital in Seattle. Jasper is also taking Medicine dad." she said.

He looked at me,"really? Congratulations son." He said a bit shocked when Bella told him.

Truth be told I would have been shocked also. Everyone who knows that we're vampires know how I struggle with my thirst. But since Bella has come into the family things have defiantly became a bit easier. I just wish I can get over my thirst completely like everyone else in the family.

I just wish I could make Carlisle and Esme proud of me. I already know they are, but to let them know that I have completely overcome my thirst would be an amazing feat which I cannot wait to tell them.

We stayed at Charlie's for dinner, the Lasagne according to Charlie, Renesmee and Jacob was delicious. It's nice to know that Bella is still appreciated still with her cooking although she no longer needs to eat. It's nice to know she can still look after her father, daughter and best friend in this way.

I am and never will be jealous of her relationship with Jacob. I know everything that has gone on in the past and I also know that Jacob and Renesmee will be together forever. I know that Jacob has plans for proposing to Renesmee soon. I don't know why he hasn't already asked her. But if waiting is what is right for them then so be it. I just hope that Edward will take it okay, seeing as it is Edward we are talking about and the fact that he hates Jacob and everything that he stands for, but has had to put his differences aside for Renesmee's and Bella's sakes.

Thinking of weddings is making me think I want to spend the rest of eternity with Bella. I know it's too soon already, and that we have only just got divorced from our previous spouses. But thinking about it now is making feelings come out that I have never felt before.

How I wish I can spend eternity with Bella. She will make a wonderful bride and wife. I love her so much already; more than I ever loved Alice, and we were together for such a long time.

Soon enough it was time to go home. Renesmee still had a bedtime even though she is 20 now. It's strange to think of Bella as 38 as she should be. And that her daughter is already 20. It's amazing to think of how quickly time has passed.

When we got home, Bella started cooking dinner for Charlie to put them in the freezer before she takes them back round later on. I sat playing on the xbox with Emmett.

Esme came home a couple of hours later calling a family meeting.

We all sat around the table and we got the news.

We'll be moving to Seattle next week. She has already found a house that could do with decorating before, but as we're vampires we can decorate in a couple of days if that if we all pitch in.

Bella and I will hopefully be sharing a room. I just hope that nothing bad happens any time soon.
