Chapter 25 (I don't own anything) Read and Review thank you everyone for all the wonderful reviews/messages on this story sorry for the very late update but was being picky.

One year later…

Emmettpov

Where do I begin? I lean against the tree watching my Bells push Connor and Michaela on the swing. We've resided in my cabin in agreement we wanted to stay close to Charlie. To both our amazements the kids have grown significantly though they should only be a year old they are both 3 now. Cute as hell looking just like their beautiful mother, their aging concerns us but Carlisle assures us he thinks this is simply because of the half blood and that within a certain age it will slow down. We hope so. I can't bare the thought of losing these two kiddos.

Time has a funny way about things. We are the only vampires that reside in Forks now. We keep the children from public view besides Charlie himself because of their odd growth spurt. Edward and Tanya sent out wedding invitations last week. We got one as well but we both agreed that'd be a bit awkward to say the least and personally I don't want my children or Bella around him. I don't mean to sound like a jerk it's just how I feel. If anything I've only become more protective, as I've not just one life to worry about now but three. Three whom I die for at any given moment, I've never been happier I truly can say I love my life everything about it.

Oddly enough Alice's vision did come true. My father is now in place of Aro's after careful voting and consideration from other covens now it wasn't exactly all that peaceful naturally some stood against Carlisle and some covens against others but once it was all cleared up and done Carlisle was the choice.

My father offered Bella and I the choice to reside with him and help run the Volturi as a democracy rather than how Aro was running it. He wanted us as chairmen so to speak but we took one look at Connor and Michaela dn that's not really what we wanted for them or for us. I love my father still and always will and I'm proud of him for what he's become. Who'd have ever thought? Carlisle Cullen basically the president of vampires. I softly chuckle on this shaking my head as Connor waves at me on the swing and Michaela squeals. Damn… I think as I continue to watch.

Jasper's become more or less my father's right hand man. Alice serves my father as well with damn near everything because let's face it she's Alice. My mother still just as strong and beautiful as ever faithfully aiding to whatever my father may need she's always there for him. Other coven members now live amongst Volturi walls with their own jobs of running the Volturi now. Only it's not called the Volturi now my father calls it The Order. Bella and I however do help along the sides such as a strand of newborns not to long ago after my father started to serve. They were getting a bit out of hand and multiplying so Jasper, Bella and I took care of business and cleaned house so to speak.

I told my father I'd help when he needed but we did not wish to reside or permenantly serve there and he fully understand but we visit often. Esme, Charlie, Alice and even Jasper are smitten with the kiddos who wouldn't be I think as I look upon them.

You should see how Charlie Swan acts though. I grin as I think on how he talks to them and acts like a child himself when he's around them and naturally Bella can't fight the smile on her face the entire time she watches. He too has concerns but we told him of what Carlisle's theory is and all we can do is pray on this and take it each day at a time.

All the memories of when I first fell in love with this girl bounce around in my head. At times I thought we'd never make it through all the trials and errors that were thrown our direction. But here we are and I couldn't picture anything I want more than what I already have.

"Daddy!" Connor yells as he runs up to me and leaps into my arms.

"Hey squirt." He giggles as I tickle his little belly and pull him onto my shoulders.

"Let's go get mommy."

"Ok daddy!"

Bella's eyes widen and I wink at her as she grabs Michaela and they pretend to be scared as we chase them.

"No daddy! No Connor!" Michaela yells behind her giggles.

"Tell him sweetie they can't get us huh!"

"Yeah you can't get us!"

Bella laughs and places her down as I place Connor down.

"Go get your sister."

I wiggle my brows at my gorgeous wife and stalk her.

"Watch yourself Em Bear."

"Hmmm."

As the kids take off after each other I take the chance and pen her against the tree in the yard.

"I got you."

She smiles shaking her head.

"That you do."

I kiss her lips then down along her neck.

"The children Em…'
"Aren't they due for a nap soon? I hint."

She returns the kiss with her arms wrapped around my neck.

"I'll see what I can do."

Bellapov

He's leaning against the tree his eyes closed as I just put the kids down. I fold my arms with a smug smile still wondering how I was able to get someone like him. I quietly make my way over and get on my hands and knees and crawl over him. He lifts one eye open and flips me around.

"Em!"

He laughs.

"Kids asleep?"

I nod. He kisses along my shoulders and neck.

"Like this shirt?"

"Not really."

He nods and rips it open.

"How bout these pants?"

"Needed new ones anyway."

"Good."

I giggle softly as he finishes demolishing my clothes. He undoes his pants as I rip his shirt apart and kiss along his chest. He leans down and whispers.

"I love you."

"I love you too Em Bear."

He makes his way inside as we continue to roll around trying to out dominate the other. Something that's rather become a game of ours, however he wins today as he pens back my hands taking over. My hips can't be controlled as he thrust about me. I release running all down my legs and all over him. He does that smirk he gets when he feels me. His lips crash back into mine. However I manage to flip him back over and ride over him his hands automatically go over my breast.

"Damn your so sexy." He mutters and I'm gone yet again.

Emmett has a way of making my legs quiver even as a vampire. He is hot as hell and the way he talked during made it even more torturous but in a way that only left me begging for more. We've been married for a year now and I swear if anything our love life has just gotten even stronger and more consistent even with the kids we find our ways of going about giving each other plenty of attention.

My back arches and he places his hands around my waist moving me about and I feel him coming and hard. He does that sexy little growl of his letting me know he's finished but not before he rolls me back over and gives me a few teasing strokes and exits.

"Who won that time?" He says with a wink.

I lay on his chest and he puts his arm around me.

"I always win Em Bear you better not forget it."

"AH, but of course my mistake." I feel his chest move with laughter.

Emmett's like the perfect father. He's always playing with them or reading to them something there's hardly a time I look over and he's not playing with one of them. And nothing's sexier to me than a man that's good with kids and my Em Bear would only make women envious because of how perfect he truly is. Now we have our miffs here and there but they are far and inbetween and it's always silly nonsense that we forget about in less than 30 minutes or so. He makes us happy he treats us all with kindness and respect and nothing but love.

The only worrisome we both sure share is about how our children age but Carlisle thinks things will be ok and I trust Carlisle so I try not to worry myself with it but sometimes I do I know Em Bear does too. Everything else couldn't be better. Alice and I have become not only sisters but the best of friends we talk to each other everyday just to see how things are. My father in-law leads the Volturi as The Order now things are a bit odd but within time they become more comfortable.

I think of how our life is and couldn't be more in love or happier as I am now and I'm finding myself thankful each and everyday for what I have as I know it is rare. I am the luckest damn woman on this planet and I know that. I'd do anything for my family I love them so much.

Bella and Emmett

And that is our story of love, jealousy, hate, revenge and everything else that came our way but more importantly it ended with Love and that's all that ever mattered. That's all that will ever matter no matter what may cross our paths again…
