So, we have reached the end to Paul and Elena. This is the last chapter, basically just mush and a happy ending to close their story. I have others I'm writing, please read those if you're interested. Thank you for reading and loving this story like I do. Enjoy. Review. Thank you.
Five years later Elena sat on her porch rocking back and forth watching Paul run around the yard with their three year old little boy named Lucas. She absentmindedly rubbed her belly, three more months to go and their little girl who they were named Violet would be here. Elena still makes potions and helps with simple magic things such as card reading and crystals, it was enough to still make a living off of. Paul started his own building company, whatever you want he can build it. Just like the rocking chair Elena was in, made of solid oak and was comfy as anything. Paul had stopped phasing the day he learned about her being human, he decided growing old with the love of his life was more important. He was soon replaced anyways by a new boy phasing, his name was Matthew and they all welcomed him with kind smiles.
Paul and Elena got married as quickly as they could, realizing how precious life really was and didn't want to waste another moment. They got married by Quil Sr who could have not been happier to see his lifelong friend settling down her roots. Quil Sr and Molly stop by about once a week now to see Lucas and check on Elena when Paul isn't around to do so. Elena got use to everyone filling in her time when Paul wasn't, it no longer bothered her.
They still see the pack everyday, they even see the Cullens almost weekly. Paul is still on the fence with them but he knows that Elena holds a special place in her heart for them and that was good enough for him. Alice visits when Paul is at work so she can pamper her pregnant and tired friend. Rosalie has fell in love with Lucas so she always tags along too. Elena was sad to think she would not grow old with her friends but she also remembered why she gave that up, for Paul. To be normal with him instead of dying which was the alternative.
Elena learned a few months after when Paul was finally letting her have alone time again why her mother was there at the council. Velma had visited her one early morning at the shop to try and clear the air. She told her daughter that she had no choice but to stand at Richards side because she knew he would protect her. Apparently Velma had grown to be unliked in the magic community because she started conning innocent humans instead of either avoiding or helping them. Elena wasn't phased and told her that it was fine now, that she was moving forward and her past didn't matter.
A ding buzzed from the kitchen telling everyone that the buffalo Mac cheese was finally done. Elena struggled to get herself out of the chair, she was about halfway out when Paul came to finish the job. Lucas was giggling still and licking grass blades out of his curly black hair.
"Go wash up Lucas," Elena smiled down at the child before running her hands through his mop. She would kill or die for this child, she knew that for a fact. Lucas ran down the hall and into the bathroom to scrub up while Paul kissed her cheek.
"You look tired, mama," Paul whispered against her face before opening the front door for them.
"You try carrying this thing," Elena joked and rolled her eyes. Carlisle had estimated that this baby would weigh in close to 10 pounds when she was delivered, thanks to Paul genes. Lucas was also about 10 pounds so what else did they expect. They walked into the kitchen and went into a rhythm. Paul pulling out dishes for them to use and Elena pulling out the food and taking it to the table. Lucas came running in full speed in the kitchen and weaves through his parents to his seat at the table. Once they all sat and the food was on their plates they bowed their heads to say a silent prayer.
May you look over my family - Paul
May you look over my family. May this baby turn out healthy and come when she's ready - Elena
May this food be delicious- Lucas
Soon they all dug in and chatted about the upcoming week. Elena had a busy week at the shop because she had to train Nessie on things that needed to be done while she went out on leave for the baby. They have become quite close, Nessie was forever in Elenas debt for her risking her life to save her own. Someone who at the time she barely knew. Paul had a busy week because he was starting a new house over in Forks. Lucas had a big week of digging in the yard and playing wolf with his cousins who came to visit.
This had become the new normal for them and deep down they couldn't be happier. Yes, they now were blind to the dangers out there. Yes, it made them more cautious. Yes, they still had the pack to watch over them though. Lucas was showing no signs of magical powers watch they were thankful for. He still may end up being a wolf one day but that wasn't until years down the road. For now, it was one day at a time, they together against the world.
