(Summary)
The next chapter will start off about a year and a half after the last. This is just a little information on what happened during that time told from Bella's point of view. I thought it would be easier to start off in the present instead of putting all this into the story in bits and pieces.
A lot has happened in the last year and a half. First of all Edward, Rose and Emmett finished their senior years at Forks High and graduated. Rose and Emmett moved out and started to rent a place together in Seattle after that first summer, everyone missed them so much. Rose decided to take some courses in Journalism to see how she liked that and Emmett surprised us all by taking an interest in Physiotherapy specifically for sports injury's. He grew up a little in his career choice but is still his fun loving self.
When Edward graduated he came back like planned to start his apprenticeship at Forks High as an Art Teacher. He became just as big of a hit as Rose once pointed out and the class became flooded with girls from all three grades, well with girls that still thought they had a chance with him. I took painting that year of course and got to see my Fiancee at work, he passed up no chance to happily tell everyone we were engaged, especially the students who were clearly there for only one reason. Sometimes he got to lead whole classes and other times he just stayed to the side and made notes. He took the notes in the book I gave him of course and I sometimes had the satisfaction of seeing him grin at one of the things I had written at the top. I thought it was cute when he had to re-write all of his notes because he couldn't part with the book. Half the course credit was on the notes he took. He passed his apprenticeship with flying colors and recieved quite a few letters of recommendation.
During that year and the months after Christmas my Dad and Natalie started to date; we all knew that was coming, what we didn't see coming was their engagement. I couldn't be happier when they told Edward and I, and Natalie already felt like a mother and friend to me in so many ways. Their wedding is set to be on August 1st, the summer after Jasper, Alice and I finally graduated.
