A/N: This is the last regular chapter and there will be one epi : ) Hope you enjoy it!

"Welcome to Billings Logan International Airport. Please wait until the plane has come to a complete stop and the captain has turned off the fasten seatbelt sign before you leave your seat. Thank you for flying with us today and we hope you enjoy your time here in Montana."

My fingers tapped anxiously against my armrest. I hope my mom wasn't too pissed. I mean I did change my flight, decide not to go to college, and charge the flight fees on her credit card. I was thinking that maybe her new relationship would make her sympathetic to my cause. I hoped.

Once I got off the plane and made it through the airport, I pulled out my phone and dialed the house number. There was no answer. I guess I didn't really come up with a plan for after the plane had landed. They don't really have taxis here like they do in Seattle.

I scrolled my contacts and found Alice's number. Thankfully, she answered on the second ring.

"Bella?" She asked. "How's college life?"

"I wouldn't know."

"What?"

"I'm in Montana. Can you come get me? I can't get a hold of anyone at the house. I'm at the airport."

"I can't," she whined. "I already started back to Texas." She sighed. "Rosie hasn't left yet, I can call her to have her come get you."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah. Give me a few minutes, honey." She hung up and I took a few minutes to go get my luggage.

I sat outside, thankful to be back in the warm weather. I thought about calling my mom, but I figured I should think long and hard about what I was going to say to her.

Mom, I'm not ready to go to college. Mom, I want to take a year off and find out what I really want to do. Mom, college might not be the right path for me.

A small, blue truck pulled up to the curb and rolled down its window.

"What the Hell are you doing back in our neck of the woods?" Rose called.

I stood up and put my luggage in the back of her truck before hopping inside. "I give a damn."

She smiled. "Good. Let's get you to your man."

I turned the music up as we sped out of the airport towards Charlie's.

The place looked pretty deserted when she pulled in and I wondered if anyone was home. She stopped up by the house and I hopped out to get my luggage.

"Hey Rose," I said, slamming the door shut. "Thanks."

"Don't mention it. I've gotta get going. Good luck Bella," she said, a slight smile on her lips. "And go Longhorns!" She screamed, laughing wildly as she screeched out of the driveway.

I left my luggage in the driveway and ran up to the house.

"Charlie! Edward!" I yelled. There was no answer. "Guys?" I went upstairs, checked all around the house. Nobody.

I sighed and headed outside, thinking they might be out at the stables or something. I ran out, past the tire swing, past the boys' place.

"Edward?" I jogged into the stables with a huge grin on my face. It fell as soon as I got a good look inside. He wasn't there.

My heart sank. They just weren't home.

I started ambling through the stables, stopping to pet Princess as I made my way towards the other side.

I leaned against the open door and gazed out into the pastureland, towards the trees and the pond where Edward and I went fishing. That was when I saw him.

I couldn't breathe, standing there watching him. He sat on the ground, his arms resting over his bent knees as the tall grass blew around him. Lightning was trotting around in front of him like she was on stage and he was the captivated audience.

I took some steps towards him. He must have noticed my presence because his head turned back over his shoulder.

"Bella?" His brow furrowed as he scurried to his feet and brushed off his pants. "I don't understand. What are you…?" He trailed off, his voice breaking.

I glanced at Lightning and back at Edward with a shrug. I closed the few steps between us and perked up on my toes to kiss him. "She found her home."
