I could see a field of green grass and flowers as far as the eye could see. Trees greener than the ones I'd been used to seeing.

Mm, the smell pancakes and freshly baked cake. I must be in heaven. This was going to be the place I'd spend forever and eternity. It was beautiful. Then I felt something on my arm. I turned to see who it was and saw the most beautiful woman ever. She had reddish brown hair and features you couldn't possibly describe.

"Who are you?"

"She said something," I heard a familiar voice say. It wasn't coming from the woman though. It sounded so good to hear though. It made my heart flutter. Then I realized who it was I recognized.

"Embry? Where are you? What are you doing here? Please don't tell me you killed yourself?"

"Sara," I heard him say again.

Just then the colors of my beautiful heaven started to fade. Everything grew darker. And there she was, standing there. Jane, with the same crimson eyes I remembered. She was standing next to her bloodsucking twin brother.

"What the hell are you doing here filthy bloodsucker," I asked as I started to run after her.

I realized I was running on all fours. I'd phased. Just then, nothing. She was gone. Then I heard screams that scared me half to life.

"What the hell was that," I yelled in question.

"Sara! You're awake!" I turned to see Embry.

"Everyone, she's awake!"

Just then I saw a group of familiar faces in my tiny room and in the doorway. I was confused at what I was seeing.

"What? But how? I got bitten."

"Renesmee."

"Huh, what about her?"

"Carlisle remembered that Renesmee's bite wasn't poisonous to us," Sam answered.

"So, he had Nessie suck the venom out," Seth said.

"It was nothing. I didn't even know if it would work. I just didn't want to regret my decision later for not having tried it."

"Where is Renesmee?"

"She's outside sitting on the porch." I jumped out of bed.

"Ouch. My shoulder."

"You shoulder probably hasn't fully healed from the bites. But you should recover in a day or so," Carlisle informed me.

"Be careful though, there are a few stitches in there. I thought maybe you would have less of a bite scar if I put them on. But it just made it look like a smaller bite mark."

I looked at my shoulder after he said it. It was all bandaged up. I took a peek at it.

"It's cool. I actually like it. It's a battle scar," I chuckled.

Of course the scar was a lot lighter than the rest of my skin, and a lot colder. Like going from ice to fire when I moved my hand around it.

"Thank you, Carlisle."

I got up and gave him a hug.

"You're very welcome."

I continued to make my way outside. There she was, where they said she would be.

"Renesmee?"

She turned to look.

"Sara! You're awake!"

I could see the sadness in her eyes turn to happiness.

"Yeah, thanks to you."

"It was nothing. I just did what I felt in my heart was right."

There was a moment of silence.

"Look, I'm sorry..." she cut me off.

"No need to apologize. I probably would've done all the same things if I was in your position."

With that said, I did something I never thought I'd do in a million years. I walked over to her and hugged her.

"Sara!"

I turned to see a figure coming out of the woods.

"Jake."

I couldn't believe it. It was the first time I'd called him Jake in months.

"I can't believe it, you're finally awake. I'm so happy."

"This doesn't change things, Jacob Black. You hurt me. And on top of that, you tried to make Embry leave me by making me say what we did. That was special to me, and you made me regret it right then and there. How could you?"

He was silent. Like he was ashamed.

"Answer me, Jacob Black!"

"I'll be inside," Renesmee said.

"Look, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. But it was because I didn't think he was good enough for you."

"Then who would be?"

"No one."

"Great, so you wanted me to be unhappy for the rest of my life. Thanks. Some kind of best friend you are."

I started to head inside.

"That's not what I meant."

"Then please, tell me, what did you mean?"

"I meant it like, no one would be able to give to you what you give to them. I would've thought no one was good enough for you if you'd imprinted on anyone else. I didn't even think I was good enough for you when we lost our virginity to each other."

There was a look of sadness in his eyes.

"I always thought you were too good for this place. I thought you deserved something more. You were always such an amazing friend, especially when my mom died. I thought, this girl has an amazingly big heart and there's no way anyone deserves her. She's one of a kind.

"You're one of a kind, Sara. But the truth is, I am happy for you and Embry. I want you to be happy. I see the way he looks at you. And after what happened, seeing that he believed you'd wake up made me realize, he's definitely the one for you. He definitely deserves you."

I started to cry. This was the first time Jake had been honest with me in a long time. I walked off the porch up to Jake and put my hand on his cheek.

"Thank you. You'll always be my best friend."

And with that gave him peck on the cheek and then we hugged each other.

"Sara, can you come inside for a sec," Emily asked.

I wiped my tears before I turned to look at her.

"Yeah, coming."

Jake and I walked inside. And that's when I was surprised.

"Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday dear Sara! Happy birthday to you," they all sang.

"Wait, I don't get it. My birthday's not til the twelfth. Paul and Rachael's wedding was just the other day."

They all looked away. Like who was going to tell me what they needed to tell me. After a minute, Jake finally said something.

"Sara, apparently the bite affected you a lot. You've been out for four days. Today would've been five."

"Five days," I yelled.

I took a deep breath.

"I guess I can deal. It's better than the alternative. So, wait, what happened to the other bloodsuckers?"

"We ripped them a part and burned the pieces. That stupid Cauis went running scared," Emmett laughed.

"It was so much fun though."

Everyone looked at him.

"What? Come on. Like you guys didn't have fun? Whatever."

Emmett...too funny.

"At least I tell the truth. You guys were going to celebrate Sara's birthday with or without her."

"We were not," Edward said.

"Emily baked the cake hoping you would wake up in time for it," Mike added.

"Yeah, 'cause there was no way I was going to celebrate my baby's birthday without her," Embry continued.

"Aw, you're too sweet," I replied.

I looked around at everyone in the room. They were happy to see I woke up today. I felt more loved than anyone in the world.

"I guess I'll make my wish now."

The candles were lit. And I made my wish.

I wish everyone in the room all the happiness in the world.

And then I blew out the candles.

"I thought wishes were supposed to be for yourself," Edward blurted out.

"I have everything I need right here already." I smiled at the truth I'd just told.

It was crazy these past two months. A crazy adventure if you will. And because of it everything had changed. I was different in more ways than one. But in the end, everything fell into place. All in all, it was a hell of a way to turn eighteen.

A/N: So yeah, I just couldn't let Sara die. To me, her character was too important. And so it ended on a happy note. Or does it? I'm currently in the process of writing the epilogue. Or should this be the epilogue. In the one I'm writing Sara gets a letter from her dad. Let me know what you guys think. It would be much appreciated.

And as always, THANK YOU so much for everyone who's been reviewing the story. It's been great to get feedback from you guys. Hope this chapter gets a lot of feedback from you guys, it'll be very much appreciated. So maybe, if there's a next chapter, I'll see you guys then. Take care and later days.
