Well here it is, the final chapter. AN at the bottom.


Epilogue

It had been six years since our second daughter and first son had been born. Both our daughters now looked fully grown. Jacob and Renesmee were engaged. That had not gone down with Edward.

"Daddy! Mum! Lizzie!" I heard Renesmee call as she came through the door. All three of us were sitting in the living room, Edward playing piano, Lizzie finishing her English essay and I was just watching Edward as he composed a wonderful piece of music, which was spoiled as soon as Renesmee called us.

"I'LL KILL HIM!" Edward said, slamming his fingers on the keys.

"Kill who, Dad?" Lizzie asked looking up from her Much Ado About Nothing notes.

"DOG!" Edward yelled again as Renesmee appeared in the doorway with Jacob, who had his arms around Renesmee.

I looked from Edward to Jacob to Renesmee trying to figure out what was going on.

"Absolutely not! There is no way! She is my little baby!" Edward was saying still on a tirade to Jacob.

"Mum!" Renesmee said over Edward, "Jacob asked me to marry him!"

And it all made sense.

"I'm going to kill you!" Edward said, "And you don't have Seth here to jump in the way again."

"Hey! Edward you told me you understood..."

"Jake... I would just run- he'll get over it by the time you've run a few thousand miles." I said as Edward bared his teeth at Jacob.

Jacob phased and launched himself off the porch.

"Let me see your ring sis"

It had taken me a while to convince Edward that we, as parents, were happy for our daughter and only wanted to see her happy. It took further convincing him that killing her fiancée would not make her happy and would likely start a war with the wolves. Renesmee had backed me up at this point, telling Edward that a war with the wolves would create an atmosphere of tension at her wedding and that was not how she wanted to remember her wedding.

It was approaching Renesmee's wedding and all was quite on the Western Front. Edward had not said one thing about Jacob and Renesmee getting married. In fact he had not said one thing to Jacob full stop. I had the feeling that he was still disapproving but was biting his tongue.

"Edward" I said in my best attempt at a sultry voice as I climbed on top of him, while he had been quite happily reading the poem Tam o' Shanter.

Edward smiled and put down the Complete Songs and Poems of Robert Burns, "yes Bella?"

I had now crawled my way up so that I was face to face with him, I picked up the book and threw it on the floor.

"Gotcha!" I said sitting up, so that I was straddling him, "now talk."

"About what?" Edward said smiling as he lifted his hand and ran his fingers across my cheek.

"You know what, Jake. You haven't said anything to him since they announced they were engaged their wedding is in a few weeks and you have to give her away, make a speech, Jake's never been a problem before..."

"Bella" Edward sighed lifting me off of him and putting me on my side of the bed, "I understand their relationship, and I know she's a woman now and she's entitled to her own life and that he truly loves her and that his thought are pure and all he wants to do is care for her, love her and make her happy. I know that's all he thinks about but all the same, she's still my baby. My first daughter and I feel like her birth was only yesterday and I don't want to lose her."

"oh Edward," I smiled as I leant over to him and hugged him "You're not going to lose Nessie unless you continue acting exactly as you are. Be Supportive of her and she'll still be in your life and she'll always love you. And Edward, you've got at least another 12 years before Lizzie is even old enough to think about getting married, and then there's always a possibility of us having more children... possibly sons."

He looked at me and smiled "I love you Bella"

Renesmee's POV

I can't believe it! The day has finally come!

"Baby, you look beautiful" I turned around and my Dad was standing at the door to my room.

"Thanks Daddy" I said and I walked over to hug him

"Renesmee," My mum said appearing from behind my Dad, "I want you to wear this for your wedding, it can be your something borrowed"

She handed me her bracelet. The that Jacob had made for her before I was born, it had a small wolf of it and a diamond heart, which when mum found out it was a real diamond she was angry at Dad for a whole hour!

"Thanks Mum" I hugged her and she left to take her place.

"Are you ready honey?" Auntie Rose asked coming in, while Dad just stood next to the door waiting quietly.

"Just need to put on my veil" I said turning back to the mirror. Rosalie was standing behind me before I had turned around and was placing my veil in my hair.

"You look beautiful, honey" she smiled before kissing my cheek, "good luck."

I walked over to my Dad who had picked up my bouquet, "let's go baby. Lizzie is waiting outside."

I took the flowers from my Dad and kissed him, "Thankyou Daddy."

Lizzie walked up the aisle before me and once she reached the end the wedding march started and all eyes turned to me and Dad. The whole of Sam's pack, which was now 15 strong had turned up, as well as Jacob's rather more modest pack . The whole of our family had been invited too; it was hard to miss Eleazar who towered over Aunt Alice, whom he was sitting near. I looked up the aisle to Jacob. It was then, when I saw his smile I knew that no matter what, everything would be perfect. I looked back to my Dad who was holding my hand.

"I love you baby." He said and kissed me.

"I love you too, Daddy" I smiled and then we took our first step.
