Disclaimer: The Twilight series is in no way mine; it belongs to Stephanie Meyer and I'm definitely not her since I lack the filthy richness which she has. Oh, and since I write fanfiction, that should start sparking light bulbs that I'm NOT HER.

. a light at the end of the tunnel .

The nervousness of moving is settling back into Charlie's stomach. He's not so sure that he can do this anymore. He feels a bit like a home wrecker, and he knows that Bella's furious with him for this.

Apparently telling your father to be happy doesn't connect well with then dating and eventually moving in with the adoptive father of your boyfriend.

That's very awkward, and that's the nicest thing which Bella has ever said on the subject, although Edward was a lot nicer about all of it. ("Whatever makes Carlisle happy is fine with me; he deserves it.") For Charlie, that's a welcome relief since Edward's two siblings weren't exactly rolling out the welcome mat for them.

Then again, they were in college, and only Rosalie was overly vicious towards him.

Still, a change of scenery would be nice, and despite all of the problems with his relationship with Carlisle, Charlie's glad that he's not a bachelor anymore. Now Renee wouldn't be able to make fun of him at the few events where the two of them were brought together, and he could afford to gloat a little that he just might have landed the better man.

Although, the fact that he had the better man, might cause Renee to either faint or start wondering what the hell had hit him over the head to make him insane.

Well, it was worth it.

FIN.
