Death and Resurrection

Chapter 49

I watch with bated breath as she drops down to her knees.

And with tears in her eyes she smiles.

"Yes, Edward," she whispers, taking my hands in hers. "Always yes."

A sigh of relief passes my lips.

"Thank you," I whisper into her hair, wrapping her tight in my arms.

We stand and I slip my grandmother's ring onto her left hand.

I pull her into my arms again and kiss her, letting every happy emotion flow from me to her in that one kiss.

We pull away and smile at each other. "I love you, Bella," I whisper.

Her smile widens and her eyes shine. "I love you, too, Edward."

The tight bubble we have around us bursts when Alice and my mother start to converge on us. In the background I hear everyone start to clap for us.

One by one, everyone approaches us, offering their congratulations.

And here, surrounded by family and friends, I know, know that there is hope.


Short, I know, but everything will start to pick up soon…Hopefully ;)
