"Happy birthday dear ja-red! Happy birthday to you!" I sang along with the others surrounding Jarred clapping as he blew out the seventeen candles on one of the three huge sheet cakes Emily had baked, remember all of the La Push wolves were over, excessive amounts of Cake were needed.

While Emily began handing out gigantic pieces of cake I leaned over Jared and kissed his cheek. "You really huffed and puffed and blew those candles down." Jared turned around and scowled.

"Not funny." I ginned giving him a chaste kiss.

"I thought it was hilarious. Besides I know you're okay with it, because you still want that super secret gift I have for you." I sang the last part of the sentence, as did Jared when I reminded him of his gift. Everyone else had already presented Jared with his or her gift; even Claire who had given him a macaroni necklace Quil had assisted her in making. I however had made him wait.

"Can I see it now?"

"Don't you want cake?"

"I can wait for cake." I smiled and nodded pulling him out the door with me unnoticed. It really said something about Emily's baking skills when the guest of honor could leave and no one even realized.

I drug him over to my place and into the garage when I had a canvas waiting covered by a big white sheet. Jared ginned wider now realizing what he was getting. I squeezed his hand and then let go, tugging at the sheet.

Underneath was a double portrait. I had split the painting down the center with a grey line. On the left side was a depiction of Jared and I, our hands were touching and the love was radiating from our eyes. Tall maple and oak trees surrounded us but even though I had drawn them fairly clearly they faded into the background.

The second half had the same background, but in this one I was standing with my hand over Jared's heart and was in his wolf form. The love on this side of the canvas was just as strong. I looked over to Jared and his eyes were trained on the image before him and they were watering up.

"Reason one million, you are perfect for me."

"Jared, you skipped a few in the middle there." I whispered ginning nonetheless.

"Yes but we have plenty of time to get to those in our future, I just thought this was the perfect time to tell you the most important reason." He now turned to me and looked me in the eye. "Kim I love you because every little thing about you makes you and I perfect of each other."

At that moment words failed me so I compensated by just savoring the moment and kissing him.


So I know that 2 months is a ridiculous amount of time to wait for such a short epilogue but I do have reasons. School (Got straight A's for the quarter you guys.) Drama, and family and friends stuff.

So Please tell me what you thought of the end! And I am going to post a poll o my profile cause I am considering a sequel so vote on that when you have the chance...or now. =D

Thank you all so much for reading this story I dedicate it to all of you.
