Why Me?
Epilogue
Thank you so much for everyone that has been reading this story since the beginning. And thank you to those who are just now catching up! I can't believe we've hit the end of the road. My beta went on vacation so I apologize for any mistakes. Without further ado, the epilogue.
-Why Me?-
Five Years Later
"Mommy! When are we leaving?" I chuckled at my impatient four-year-old.
"We're leaving soon, honey," I told her.
"But…I want to see Addison and Amanda now!"
I rolled my eyes and picked up my daughter, Olivia. She looks a lot like her daddy. She has his strange bronze hair but my brown eyes. I put her face close to mine and started covering her in kisses. She squealed and tried to wriggle out of my arms.
"Why does Liv get all the kisses?" my husband questioned with a pout.
"She gets all the kisses because she's cute," I replied playfully. Olivia stuck her tongue out at Edward.
He chuckled and stole her from my arms. I saw her squirm but she was only half dressed. I smiled and then I heard the crying. With a sigh I walked into Edward's old music room that was now painted blue and green. I walked to the crying baby that was in the crib. My smile grew bigger as I picked up my miracle baby.
Edward and I had been ecstatic when we found out I was pregnant with Olivia. She was born only a year after our wedding day. When she was two we decided we wanted to add another addition to the family. So, we went to work and I found out two months later we got our wish.
We had been at Alice and Jasper's wedding when I started to feel the pains in my stomach. It was when Alice and Jasper were saying their vows. I tried to ignore the pain, but it had just been getting worse. I ended up doubling over and Jasper looked at me with worry on his face.
Edward ran up to me and yelled at someone to call 9-1-1. I didn't understand why until I looked down and saw the blood on the floor. I started sobbing uncontrollably and was rushed to the hospital. They apologized, saying that there was nothing we could have done to save her. I also found out I might not be able to carry another baby to term.
One year later we found out I was pregnant again. Edward and I went to the gynecologist and I was put on bed rest for the whole pregnancy. It really sucked having to stay in bed and not be able to play with my baby girl. But, seven months later we had a perfectly healthy baby boy named Daniel.
I picked up the now-screaming baby and gave him a bottle. Once he was done eating I got him dressed and we were ready for the drive to Alice's. Amanda is their two-year-old toddler. We were also going to see Emmett, Rosalie, and their son EJ. I smiled when I looked at my family, amazed by how much life had changed in past few years.
-Why Me?-
*wipes away tears* I can't believe it's over. I love you guys and hope you continue to read my stories. I already have another idea for a story, but it might be a little bit before I start it.
