An the reviews rocked the house yet again! Sadly, this story is almost over....but....I have the idea ready for my new fanfiction which I will start right after this one is over and let me say..I am SOOO excited to write that one. I have a feeling that it will be amazing, hopefully. Like, I am way more excited about that one than this one.

Bella POV

Edward and I had been sitting on the couch for what seemed like hours. My stomach was in knots and I'm sure Edward wasn't doing much better. We hadn't heard from Alice and that was really worrying him. I held tightly to his hand and leaned back against him.

He gently kissed my forehead.

"I'm sure everything is just fine," I said, breaking the silence.

He smiled but it didn't reach his eyes.

"Yeah, of course."

The minutes passed on. With each ticking of the clock Edward became more stiff and uneasy and I became more worried.

Then without warning Edward sat up and tilted his head towards the front of the house.

"No..."

"Edward?"

Within seconds the front door burst open and Emmett came running in with a huge smile on his face. He picked me up and spun me circles causing me to scream.

"Emmett! Put me down!"

He didn't budge. "We did it! We totally beat the crap out of them!"

Edward saved me from his grasp and kept his hands firmly around my waist.

The rest of the family came in shortly and we all exchanged hugs.

"Oh Bella sweetheart," Esme breathed, pulling me into a hug.

Emmett was busy filling in Edward about each second of the fight. He made sure to add extra detail to when he ripped Maria apart. Emmett will be Emmett.

Last Jasper came in, slowly. I broke off from the surprise hug from Rosalie to walk over to him.

"Bella, I am so sorry. Can you ever-"

I quickly cut him short. "No apologies. It was an accident and I still love you no matter what. We're family now and I don't care."

He smiled and did something I'd never dreamed he would: he hugged me.

I was so caught up in the moment that a huge flash blinded me. I let go and turned to Alice who stood holding her camera.

"What a kodak moment! Aw!"

She danced over to us and tossed her tiny arms around both of us.

"Group hug!"

Everyone turned and just plain ignored us. She stuck her tongue out.

Edward snuck up from behind and pulled me to him.

"How about just a normal hug?" he whispered in my ear.

I twisted around to face him and placed both hands on his cheeks. He lowered face and our lips just barely brushed when Emmett pulled me away. A sharp hiss echoed from Edward's throat.

"Hey now brother, Bella and I have a whole new bond after this week. You need to learn to share her."

Edward pulled me back against his chest.

"I can share later. She's mine for now, maybe you should go pay attention to your wife who you've been away from for days."

I giggled when Rosalie smacked him upside the head.

"Yes! Pay attention to me for once. It feels like you like Bella more than you like me!" she whined.

He smiled at her. "But I love you."

I shivered when Edward's lips touched my ear.

"Want to sneak away?"

We ended up in our meadow. It was filled with July wildflowers and the occasional rabbit skipping around. The clouds dispersed and the sun shone down on us, letting Edward's true beauty shine.

"Finally, some peace."

I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him long and hard, bumping against the barriers. My hands snuck down and unbuttoned his shirt and tossed it to the ground so I could see the amazing planes of his chest and watch them sparkle.

"I am never, ever leaving you like that again," he told me urgently.

I couldn't help but grin. "Good."

Then he gave me my favorite crooked smile and pressed his marble lips against mine.

Then I remembered something.

"Edward?"

I broke the kiss and he smiled down on me.

"Yes love?"

I can't believe I was ruining the moment with this, but I was curious.

"What are we going to do about Mike? He totally lied about everything."

He chuckled. "Oh, as we speak Emmett is over at Mike's house flexing his muscles...you know, threatening him."

I could just picture Mike's face when he saw Emmett over there.

"Everything is covered...so we can just relax."

Once more he caught my mouth with his and we continued on.

It was pure ecstasy.

The End

Don't be sad anyone! This story had to end sometime. I couldn't keep dragging it out because then it would be nothing and boring and ruin the whole story. Yes I know this last part was very short, but how much longer could this go on?

But....my new fanfiction will be up sometime this week so i really hope ALL of you wonderful readers go and check it out. I'll probably put up an authors note here after I put it up.

But thank you too ALL of my readers! You kept me going. Without you all I would have given up but no, you stuck it out! You all ROCK AT LIFE! Thank you so much!!
