Bella took a small step forward at the same time as Mike lowered his arm. Everyone started to let out a sigh of relief until he pointed the gun at Bella. Everyone froze apart from Mike. He put his fingers around the trigger and took one long step forward.

"Mike you don't want to shoot me." Bella spoke in a clear voice. I was screaming at my self to do something to help her but my body wouldn't move.

"No I don't but I will." He mumbled back. Bella took another step forward causing my heart to go into over drive.

"Bella" I warned when her eyes flashed to mine. She smiled at me before rolling her eyes . . . Is she actually crazy? Is she trying to get me back for not telling her I was dying?

Everything was silent for a few seconds before Harry came charging up the stairs. His face pale and his breathing erratic. He froze at the door where Mike had been.

"Harry could you please go downstairs and ring the police for me." Bella said calmly. She gave him a long look over Mike's shoulder. He unfroze before nodding and sprinting downstairs looking terrified – I'm sure we all do . . . apart from Bella.

"Mike, I want you to put the gun down." She spoke gently to him but the determination in her voice was hard to miss.

"Why should I?" if I wasn't terrified for my Bella and my family I would have laughed. He sounded worse then our twins. Bella was now moving closer to Mike but Mike's gun was getting lower.

"Mike, you don't want to hurt me or anyone else. Your making a mistake." I noticed how her voice had taken on a strange sort of lullaby tune to it. It was even making me feel more relaxed. My eyes flashed to the twins I was shocked to see they had fallen asleep in Rosalie and Alice's arms.

"No, I want to do this." He clarified whilst lowering his gun – it was now pointing at the floor. Jasper and I made our move. Jasper went for the gun whilst I held him down causing him as much pain as I could.

He was flat on the floor, his head twisted to the side so he could breathe. His legs were spread so it would be harder for him to get up whilst his arms were behind his back being held by me.

He started to squirm and was attempting to push himself off the floor – when he had two grown men holding him down. Idiot. Jasper pulled the gun out his hand and threw it to the other side of the room. He twisted Mike's hand in an odd way and Mike let out a scream.

"I meant to do that." Jasper admitted as he pressed more pressure into Mike's hand.

"Jasper." Alice lightly scolded him. I just shook my head at them.

Bella walked up to me, Mike and Jasper. She glared at Mike with a look of pure loathing before she knelt down so she was next to me. She kissed me on the cheek lightly but it sent my heart beating like crazy. She got up and went to Mike's feet. She wrapped one hand around his right ankle and Mike let out a scream from underneath me.

"That is for scaring my children!" Bella snapped as she added pressure to his ankle again. He screamed before thrashing around.

"And that is for nearly shooting my family! Gosh you insane ba-. . ." she trailed off with her eyes on our twins. They were still fast asleep in Rose's and Alice's arms.

"Bella, do you ever have a normal life?" Emmett asked once Bella came to sit next to me again. She shuddered in disgust at being so close to Mike but she leaned into my side.

"Nope. Do you?" Bella giggled back at him.

"Good point." He sighed.

Third Person POV – many years in the future.

Edward wrapped his arms securely around his wife, his life, his other half. He looked down at Bella truly happy with how his life had changed. Bella sighed as she was thinking the same as Edward. She felt safe in his arms. They both smiled as they watched their family.

"Remember when Emmett proposed to Bella for Edward? Edward's face was so funny when he realised . . . I thought he was going to cry!" Jasper chuckled as he looked at his family. Emmett huffed.

Emmett didn't see what Edward's deal was. He knew that Bella was going to become his sister one day – all he wanted was for them to hurry up.

"You proposed to our mom for our dad?" Antony asked, his tone showing his disbelieve. It did seem like something his uncle would do. He could picture his dad's face. He couldn't help but chuckle at the image in his head. Chaz watched her brother for a second before giggling long side him, the same image burning in her head as he had.

Emmett threw his hands up in annoyance. Rosalie just looked at her husband with a look of love before handing him their child Isabella. She always calmed him down. Emmett happily took his daughter into his arms and started to make funny faces for her amusement. He loved how his daughter was so innocent and didn't know about the cruel world yet. Isabella giggled happily as she watched her father make his face into a funny pose.

Chaz and Antony watched their aunt and uncle dote on their daughter with a strange feeling in their chest. They couldn't help but feel jealous. They never got the chance to be innocent. One of their best and worse memories was of Mike running into their flat and pointing a gun at their mother . . . it was the worst because they have never been so terrified but it was the best because they had their family around them for the first time.

Alice watched her niece and nephew. They looked so much like their parents it was painful. They both had Bella's kindness and compassion but had Edward's view on life. They both had a mix of their parents temper . . . they sure could fight.

"How many years have they been married now?" Alice asked. Everyone knew who she was talking about. Chaz and Antony answered automatically.

"Twenty." They spoke with pride. They were happy that their parents were together and happy.

"To Edward and Bella. Together in love, even in death." Jasper spoke clearly. They said this every year since they died. Everyone stood up and raised a glass to the sky. Bella couldn't help but giggle as she leaned into Edward. She loved how they thought they were in heaven. She always wondered if they all knew they watched over them. Every single one of them! Edward and Bella were their angels who looked out for them until the days where they would join them.

"I still think my mom would be pissed off about being killed in a car accident." Antony mumbled. He knew that she wanted to die of old age surrounded by family . . . not in a car whose brakes wouldn't work. He knew that she was happy because she was with his dad forever.

"I don't think dad was all too pleased about it either." Chaz giggled. She could imagine her dad storming around heaven complaining to her mom about their death. She always pictured her mom looking lovingly at her dad as he did it.

"Edward and Bella, together forever!" Emmett summed up as he smiled at his family. His thoughts went off on a trail about how their love was the best example of love; he repeated the words that Edward and Bella had asked for on their graves.

"Life is a joy." They all sighed together. They eventually broke into conversation about how their lives had changed so much in the past twenty years.

Edward kissed Bella's lips lightly. She turned to face him. Even after all this time he still made her feel weak at the knees.

"I love you my angel." He whispered to her. He looked into her brown eyes that seemed to dance with emotions. His green eyes filled with love as he looked down at her.

"Forever." She told him as she once again placed her lips to his.

The End.
