A/N: Couple things first. One I noticed that I WASN'T accepting Anonymous reviews! Stupid me! Now for my winner, I've decided to move it up to the sequel (If I have one.) and if I changed my mind of what I've originally planned (I have two ideas in my head right now) then I will fit you in somehow in the sequel.
Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight! HA MY FIRST SANE DISCLAIMER! SEE I TOLD YOU I COULD DO IT! Oh wait. Darn… that just ruined it…
JPOV
I sat in the Mercedes with Rosalie by my side. It was quite. Even Emmett knew not to talk. This wouldn't have happened if I wasn't there to protect my family. Rosalie wouldn't have gotten raped… and mom wouldn't have gotten killed. God I'm a fucking idiot! I can't believe I let them alone like that! Though… I've got to stop beating myself up. And Rose…. Rose is coping well… she does seem a bit.. Happier. Well as happy as she can get without going to some party or fucking some kid…. She just seems…. Well I guess she just seems to be really in love with Emmett. I guess things happen for a reason…
The Mercedes pulls up to a drive way… but it wasn't Emmett's house.
Carlisle turns around in his seat "I know after all that has happened it isn't the best idea… but Esme invited us to a dinner party… Bella and Alice and Edward would be there…"
Rosalie shrugs slightly and says quietly "It's ok."
We get out of the Mercedes and go to knock on their door. We are greeted by Esme who is smiling warmly "I'm glad you could make it."
Carlisle nods and the rest of us file in… boy did I feel underdressed.
As if by cue Alice bounds in "C'mon Jasper! I got something for you upstairs! Same with you, Rose! Emmett… I don't think I got anything big enough… but Edward may have one of dad's old tuxes…"
Rose and I head silently to Alice's room.
RPOV
I was sitting there watching Alice look though her closet. Normally I would be up there with her… but not anymore. I've changed… but some for the better. I'm not as much as a bitch anymore. And I have a steady boyfriend. I understand Jazz more than ever, and I don't go out of my way to impress someone. I actually made friends… in stead of just acted like I liked the person. And.. I just seem like a better person.
Alice turns around "Why so quiet, Rose?"
"I was just thinking…"
Alice comes over and hugs me "I know you've been though a lot… and so recently… but I want you to know that me and Bella love you…"
Then Bella comes in "I heard that last part. It's true, Rose.. We do love you."
I cock my head towards Bella "Bella.. Can I ask you something."
"Anything." she smiles.
"What are you hiding?"
BPOV
How does she know?! How am I suppose to know! I DON'T KNOW! WHAT SHOULD WE DO!
Rosalie continues "I mean.. you were just a little weird at the hospital… it seemed like you were about to break… and you hit it off with Edward so fast.. It was like you were already friends."
"Yea…" Alice says "I've noticed that.. I just didn't want to ask."
I sigh and take a seat next to them "Do you really want to know?"
Now I'm all for honesty but WHAT ARE YOU DOING! YOU CAN'T TELL THEM THIS! I think they have a right to know…
"Yes.." Rosalie and Alice say together.
I take a deep breath and begin "Three years ago my mom married my step dad. His name was Phil. He was a generally nice guy… then he started drinking. He beat me and my mom constantly. A year later he killed my mom… with his bare hands. He burned the body and lied saying my mom left us. He continued to beat me until Charlie said yes about me living here. I ran away and moved in with Charlie. The only thing that stopped me from committing suicide or something like that in those three years was YouTube. I met this guy name Mindreader337... Who at the time I didn't know was Edward… and I told him all my problems. He seemed to care… and that was all I need. If I never have went on YouTube I probably wouldn't be here right now… I guess you could call it the Power of YouTube…"
Alice and Rosalie looked at me shocked "You mean…"
Now you blew it. I just had to be honest… Honesty doesn't get you everywhere… Coming from you? Yes.
Then Alice hugs me "Why didn't you tell me before, Bella?"
"Because… because I didn't know how to." Blew it did I? Shut up. No, not today.
Rosalie soon joins the hug "I can't believe that happened… I am so sorry Bella."
I break out of the hug fest "Look guys. I don't want your sympathy. I'm ok. I'm alive. Just cool it.. Seriously."
Alice and Rosalie bite their lips, but don't say anything. Then Esme calls us down to dinner.
The three of us run downstairs and are met with the three boys. "Ready?"
"Yea."
We are led to the dining hall and we take our seats. Esme stands up. "I'd like to say something before we eat. We've all been through our ups and downs. Death took our hearts. Separation nearly killed us. We got bruised, physically and mentally, but we're here now. We're here together, with the ones that we love. And I will like this day to be in our memories. The worse is yet to come, but we can surpass it if we all stick together. Cooperation is the key to victory. I would like to propose a toast." She raises her glass "To victory."
We raise our glasses "To victory."
After we all take a sip Carlisle gets up "And I will like to say something too." He gets on one knee and we all gasp "Esme my love, will you marry me?"
Emmett, Alice, and Edward choke on thin air "YOU WERE DATING?!"
Esme, ignoring them, tears up "Yes!"
She jumps into Carlisle's arms and he spins her around victoriously.
Watching that I look into Edward's eyes… and know everything will be ok.
A/N: I am crying. This is the last chapter of this Fan Fic. Now I will keep my pool on for about one more hour… then I will see…. Do you want a sequel? And I am sorry that this wasn't a big fan fic nor a big ending…. But… oh never mind. Now this is the time to ask questions in the reviews.. About me or the story. (Not that I can promise you I will answer stuff like Where do you live because I'm not stupid…)
