Disclaimer: I don't own Twilight, it's as sad as that is.
(A/N: Okay so this is the last official chapter of Who To Trust! I'm so happy and sad cause this is the end. I'll go into more detail after this chap on the bottom...cya there!)
Previously on WTT:
I don't know what happened after I finished the note because the darkness decided to make it's first appearance in months and take me captive as Seth's cries were heard in my ear.
Chapter 20
LPOV
It's been a year since that night at Prom and it's been stressful. When I woke up that night, my family was on full guard and hardly left my side for the next few months. Finally by November they loosened up and left me alone some but Seth was the hardest to get to understand that nothing bad was going to happen to me. It wasn't until February when Sam and Jake upped their patrol hours so Seth had finally came to the conclusion that I'll be safe since he's with me twenty four seven anyways and with my amazing vampire family.
As for Melina, she hasn't made her presence known but she's made pretty darn sure she's watching for me. What my family doesn't know is that since the night at prom, I've received two letters from her and enclosed were three pictures each. The first letter held another poem along with a threat and three pictures, one of me and Seth at prom, one of me and my family playing outside during the summer and the last one of me, Seth, Blake, Leah, Azzy, and Mason at the mall(It was sunny so Alice couldn't go). The second letter was a little darker, she focused more on the revenge rather than the reason why along with three pictures of me and either Seth and my family or Seth and my friends. To say I was a little freaked by these notes would be an understatement. I mean this is Ross' mate we're talking about here! Not that I knew he had one to begin with but apparently he does and now she's probably as sadistic as he is and is going to kill me!
On a semi-lighter note, Azzy, Mason and I are still great friends along with Blake who has volunteered willingly to keep an eye on me whenever Seth is not around. Azzy was a little freaked after prom because she I was sick but after a day of reassuring, she was fine. Her and Mason have been dating since then and are in my opinion, the cutest couple in the world! Mason is so sweet and very respectful towards Azzy and she is just much more happier since they made their relationship official. Me and Blake had a long conversation with Mason that consisted of, if he were to hurt her in any way, shape, or form, he could kiss his ability to have any kids in the future.
Despite all of that, I made it through senior year which leads me to today, the day that signified our freedom from this prison known as school, the most emotional day of the year for seniors, Graduation day. That's right, I did it! I made it through my entire high school education and got to graduate with Blake. I'm so excited because that means I'm that much more closer to spending forever with my Seth but it's sad because that means I'm that much more closer from saying goodbye to my friends Azzy and Mason. Even though I'll have Blake, I'll miss Azzy more than anything.
Now time to go cry happy and sad tears.
Stupid graduation.
*+*+*+*+*+*(In Lily's Closet)*+*+*+*+*
Here we are, graduation day. The day that basically tells the world we are now able to escape the prison that is Forks High. Alice had dressed me in a beige dress that came to about mid-thigh to my knees depending on what I was doing. It had a elegant lace design on the bust along with pleated and taffeta lining peeking out at the hem. It was an overall beautiful dress, to me it was a bit much for graduation then again try telling Alice that. She had me put on a pair of sling back, peep toe pumps with a bow on the toe and she did my hair in loose curls down my back with a black head band with a beige flower popping out of the mass of my hair. I had on my amethyst flower ring and my locket on to complete the look.
"Thanks Alice, I look amazing as always. And I promise to never doubt your amazing pixie powers for the rest of my life." I said as I grabbed the god awful yellow cap and gown.
"Welcome now go downstairs, Seth should be here by now." Alice said as she all but shoved me out of the room.
I headed downstairs with a small smile that gradually got bigger because I knew for a fact Seth was here and he was going to see me pretty before I put on the cap and gown-conceited? I know but if you saw the color of yellow it is you'd understand.
As I stepped downstairs, I was suddenly lifted up in the warm arms that I knew so well. I looked up to see him looking down at me with a blinding smile and eyes filled with love, adoration, lust, and even more love. He held me in his arms wearing a white muscle shirt, dark wash jeans, a black suit jacket and of course his random vans to throw off the whole outfit.
"Well, don't you look handsome" I teased as I pecked his lips once.
"Don't you look as beautiful as always" he teased back as he gently lowered his lips to mine.
His lips were soft, warm and tasted like cinnamon. They made me have a warm fuzzy feeling in the pit of my stomach and my heart soar. My hands made their way up his neck and tangling in his hair while his tightened around my small form. Soon, his tongue came begging for an entrance, and who am I not please? I obliged to his wishes and soon our tongues were battling for dominance. Not sure how that battle would have turned out because soon Jasper and Emmett pulled him away from me which caused to fall flat on my butt.
"Hey!" I cried out as I rubbed my bottom before standing up. When I got up, I dusted my dress off, and glared at the two vampire dorks holding my werewolf boyfriend on the other side of the room. "What was that for?"
They widened their eyes before trying to reason with me. Jasper spoke first, "Lily, we were just acting like the normal big brothers we are. It's not our fault if Seth here won't listen to the rules we had placed from day one"
Then Emmett, "Yeah, we're just performing our brotherly duties. Besides, who else is supposed to make sure Seth treats you right and get him in line?"
I sighed in exasperation, "Really? Usted estúpidos! Quiero decir realmente? ¿Cómo es que los vampiros pueden ser tan estúpido? Of course he's treating me right! If not I would have told you so! ¡Ay dios mío!" with one last shout of frustration, I stalked off towards the car grumbling, "Vampiro grandes hermanos. Sonaba como una buena idea hace un año ... "
*+*+*+*+*(At the Stadium)*+*+*+*+*+*
Once we made it to the stadium I slipped on the horrid yellow gown but leaving the cap off for last minute. All of my siblings were either adjusting their outfits or making out behind the bleachers, for god sakes! Can't wait till we get home before they get all-all, yeah well you know. I found Blake with Leah by the entrance. He stood there with his arms wrapped around Leah's thin waist as they both faced the outside while Leah was handing out programs to the parents. On the other side of the door was Mason and Azzy standing in the same position with Azzy handing out the programs.
"Hey guys!" I called as I grabbed Seth's hand and pulled him to our friends."Lily! Seth!" Both Azzy and Leah squealed as they pulled from their significant others arms and crushed me into a hug.
"Oh my god! Lily! Can you believe it! We made it! We actually made it to graduation!" Azzy squealed as she practically vibrated with excitement.
I giggled, "Well yes Miss Valedictorian I'm pretty sure I believe we made it. As for you" I pointed to Blake "I don't know how you made it here though"
He laughed, "The same way you did, sucking up and some serious ninja skills."
We all burst out laughing. "Oh yes, because you have all mighty ninja skills"
"I am proud to say I do have amazing ninja skills." Blake said as and announcement came up.
"All seniors please report behind the stage. I repeat, All seniors please report behind the stage." the loud voice of Mrs. Sharp came from the stage microphone.
I clapped my hands together as I looked at my friends, "Well guys this it. When we leave this place tonight, we'll be officially out of here. Ready to rock the senior class' socks off out there?"
They all cheered as we grouped into one last group hug as seniors before heading to the doors. I would have walked in with Azzy but Seth pulled me the opposite direction to the bleachers. Once he found a spot that was deep in the bleachers, he took the robe from his arm and slipped it on.
"How do I look?" He took a step back and twirled as he modeled the robe. To be completely honest, he made the horrid robe look really hot.
I grinned as I wrapped my arms around his waist, "Amazing, you make that color look absolutely amazing whereas I probably make it look horrible."
His chest vibrated as he chuckled, "Oh Lily, you could never make this outfit look horrible, I actually looks great."
"Uh-huh, sure" I pulled away and placed the yellow cap on my head with the flower tucked in carefully.
"What do you think?" I asked.
"Beautiful as always of course." He grinned, I grinned back as the wind decided to make it's appearance.
"Come on, we better get going" I told him as I took a step forward only to be stopped by Seth.
"Hold on, I need to ask you something" Seth said as he adjusted my yellow graduation cap on my head.
I looked at him curiously as I made sure my bracelet was on right, "What is it?"
He pulled me further behind the bleachers, before looking around then digging his hands in his pockets, "Uh, I kind of had this planned differently but I have to get this out before I loose my nerve to do so."
Now I was extremely confused, "Seth what are you trying to ask me?"
"Liliana. Before Bella and Edward found you, I didn't really knew where I stood in life besides as a part of Jake's pack and best friend to the Cullens. But when you came, I knew exactly where I was meant to be, I was meant to be with you. You have filled my life with so much laughter and adventure in the last year, and made me feel so many different emotions-some completely foreign to me-but it was all worth it. Okay, I practiced this, here goes nothing," He bent down on one knee and brought out his hands to reveal a beautiful silver ring with a medium sized amethyst stone in between two small diamonds, "Liliana Reyes-Cullen, ¿Quieres casarte conmigo?"
My eyes welled with tears as I spoke shakily, "What?"
He looked into my eyes as he spoke, his voice strong, "Liliana, will you marry me?"
My heart was pounding as the tears made their way down my cheeks. I was bursting with joy as I tried to get my voice to work. Seth wanted to marry me, me! I knew for a fact that I've wanted this since I first met him that day at the house when I came home from the hospital. I looked into his big brown piercing eyes that were filled with so much emotion and I knew what my answer was.
"Seth, of-"
"Lily! Seth! There you are!" Oh come on! I I snapped my head around to see Azzy running over to where we were standing. Right now, I was screaming thousands of insults in every language I knew of at her. Don't get me wrong, I love her and all but why? Why now?
I quickly wiped the tears away from my eyes, making sure I didn't smear any make up and turned around fully to see her arrive, "Hey Azzy, what's up?"
She took a deep breath, "You two need to come with me, the whole things waiting on you, now come on!"
"Oh crap!" I turned, grabbed Seth's wrist and pulled him towards the gym doors, "Come on! We're going to miss our own graduation!"
I pulled on his arm following Azzy threw the gym doors and ran in line. Seth gave me a quick parting kiss before going to stand in front of Alice but behind Blake. I sighed before taking my spot behind behind Edward.
"Don't worry, enjoy this because trust me, when you hit the fifteenth one, it gets pretty boring." Edward said as the music started to sound.
"Okay, I can do this. I can do this" I quietly pumped myself up as we started moving forward.
We moved forward outside towards the rows of chairs where we sat and waited for the ceremony to begin. The principal started the ceremony with a simple speech before introducing Azzy up as the valedictorian. She walked up to the podium before clearing her throat and starting her speech.
I didn't really pay attention during the speech at all for I was to busy staring at the back of the love of my life's head. Darn Azzy, why'd she have to go and interrupt us as I was about to answer him? The look in his eyes as we heard her voice was one I don't wish to see again. His eyes were glazed over and void of any sign of emotion. His facial expression wasn't any better, but I knew he wanted this night to be memorable by the false smile he wore throughout the walk over to the gym.
Suddenly, I felt Edward poke my arm signaling it was time to get our diplomas. I stood up and followed him towards the stage as I faintly heard the sounds of the other students getting their diplomas and the audience cheering enthusiastically(sp?) from the bleachers.
"Blake Carson!" I heard the principal announce. I cheered along with his parents and Leah as I saw Blake walk up, shake hands with the principal, took his diploma and fist pumped the air before continuing his walk of fame.
A few others were called up before I heard them announce Alice, then Edward and finally, me.
"Liliana Cullen!" I heard the cheering voices of my family, friends and my Seth cheer loudly as I walked across the stage with my diploma. I did it!
As I walked towards the row of chairs that a part of my family sat at, I couldn't wipe the smile off my face as I thought back to the day that I got my last report card and read the big shiny 84 on my math grade.
"Mason Daniels!" Mason walked up to get his diploma with a large smile on his face as he met Azzy's excited eyes.
"Azzmaria Hernandez!" Azzy practically skipped up to the principal to receive her diploma with a huge smile occupying her face.
"Isabella Masen!" the principal called as I watched the rest of my siblings get their diplomas and sit back down as the crowd cheered loudly.
"I now present you, your 2013 graduating class!" canary yellow caps flew high in the air as cheers rang loudly throughout the stadium.
I squealed before running into Seth's arms, "We did it! We actually did it!"
He laughed as he spun as around before setting me down on my feet without taking his hands from around my waist, "Yes we did"
With a giggle, I took his hands in mine and looked into his remarkable brown eyes, "My answer is yes"
"What?" He looked puzzled before realization dawned on him and a hundred watt smile lit his face. "Really?"
I nodded, smiling widely as he dug through his pant pocket, pulled out the beautiful amethyst ring a sliding it on my finger. He took me in his arms and spun us around as our laughter filled the air.
"I love you Liliana Cullen"
"And I love you Seth Clearwater"
*+*+*+*+*+*(A small church two months later)*+*+*+*+*+*
"And something blue" Rosalie fastened the blue hair pin in the mass of curls that were pinned into a loose bun beautifully(or at least I think, I haven't been allowed near a mirror since I woke up this morning at six A.M!).
Alice squealed as she adjusted my mother's flower clip on the right side of my bun, "Now, lets see, you have something new-"my dress "something old-" my mother's clip "something blue" the hair pin "and something borrowed" Rosie's bracelet that she got from when mom died, "and your makeup is done, along with your hair so ta-da!"
She turned me around to the full length mirror and I about cried. The girl in the mirror wore an ivory, off the shoulder floor-length dress with embroidered flowers scattered throughout the dress. She also wore ivory gloves that came up above her elbows. She had on ivory sling back, peep toe shoes, and a diamond bracelet on her right wrist. Her hair was in a loose up-do with some loose strains hanging down, the blue pin hidden in the mass of curls and a medium sized rose clip sat on the right side of the curls. Her makeup was natural, and light but bringing out the beauty already there. As much as I always hate to admit it, Alice did a remarkable job.
"Alice...thank you" was all I got out for I was trying to hold back the tears so I wouldn't ruin my makeup.
She smiled softly, "Your welcome, but I really didn't do anything besides emphasize the beauty that was already there" She then clapped her hands together and grinned, "Now! You ready to become the new, Mrs. Clearwater?"
A large smile lit up my face, "You bet!"
Suddenly, there was a light knock on the door, before it opened to reveal a beaming Carlisle.
"You girls ready?" he asked as he took the sight of us all in.
The girls all nodded as they fixed their curls accordingly. My bridesmaids(Nessie, Rose, Alice, Azzy, Leah and my maid of honor Bella) all wore a simple empire waist dress that came about to their knees and was in a deep purple. Their hair was in curls and they had it down rather than an up-do.
"Heck yes, now, let's get this girl down that aisle and to her man!" Azzy giggled as I just blushed madly but was slightly thankful for her words because I really wanted to just get this over with so I could be in Seth's arms where I felt calm.
"Alright girls, go out the door, down the hall to the guys and meet at the main foyer in front of the door" Alice instructed as she handed the girls their small bouquets of white and purple roses as they headed out the door.
"You ready sweetheart?" Carlisle asked as Alice shut the door behind her.
I looked up at the man I'm proud to call my second father, "Yes dad." I looked over at the mirror again, "I'm getting married today daddy"
I could hear his footsteps get closer, "Yes you are little one, and if it makes you feel better, I know your parents would be so proud of you right now."
Tears welled up in my eyes and I was suddenly grateful that Alice made my makeup water proof, "I wish they could be here and see this"
Carlisle wrapped his arms around me being extremely careful not to ruin the outfit, "They are here. Always know they're watching you no matter what and they'll always be with you in spirit."
We separated and I grabbed my ivory and purple rose bouquet from the table, "Thank you Dad, I think that's what I needed to hear"
He smiled as he held our his arm, "Your welcome sweetheart. You all ready?"
I nodded as I slipped my arm in his and we walked out the door and down the hall.
We walked to the end of the hallway and watched as the girls walked down in sync with the music down the aisle with the boys to where my Seth stood looking as handsome as ever. Soon the music changed to the wedding march and I knew it was time. Time to become the new Mrs. Liliana Clearwater.
*+*+*+*(After the ceremony)*+*+*+*
The ceremony was beautiful and I can't believe the man behind me with his strong, warm arms wrapped around my waist as we stood in line at the airport to leave for our romantic honeymoon was now mine. All mine. My emotions were on high as we had stood at that alter, Seth's hands wrapped around mine, exchanging heartfelt vows. When the priest had announced us husband and wife, I almost squealed for joy but was interrupted by Seth's lips on mine. The sounds of the congrats coming from my family and friends filled the room and I knew I was finally in my personal heaven on earth.
"What are you thinking about?" Seth's voice pulled me out of my thoughts.
I turned around in his arms and looked into his bright brown eyes that were filled with happiness, "I'm just thinking about how I can't believe your finally mine. Mine and mine only."
His arms tightened their hold on my waist and he buried his face in my curls, "And your finally mine. All mine and not anyone else's."
"Yes I'm all yours" I giggled as I shifted in my shoes-stupid heels, I hate them so much but like Alice had pointed out, they work with outfit better than any of the flats in my closet and there's a lot of them, "Now before you go all caveman on me, can you tell me where you are taking me?"
Seth chuckled, "Nope. Trust me though, your going to love it."
I sighed as I fiddled with the beige sash of my white lace knee-length dress with tulle trim on the sweetheart bust and bottom of the dress, "Fine I'll come in peace."
He kissed my forehead, "That's all I ask for. Now come on, the plane is boarding."
I nodded as I took his hand in mine and followed him onto the plane for the best two weeks of my life.
*+*+*+*+*(Honeymoon recap)*+*+*+*+*
Austin, Texas. He took me back to my home for our honeymoon! We went to the place I had called my home for the first seven years of my life. The place where most of my childhood memories took place. When that plane landed and the flight attendant announced where we were I almost burst into tears.
We went all over the city doing some of the most random things. We visited the state capital where we spun around in circles in the middle of the floor just under the huge dome reading the word "TEXAS". We went to Zilker park where we flew a kite, fed some ducks at the lake, walked a few trails, played at the park, met a few friendly people with their dogs and had an amazing picnic. I took him to see the University of Texas campus to see the large majestic tower and infamous fountain that sat in front of the tower making for a great photo. I told him stories of the times my father would take me and my sisters to the campus just to run around and enjoy the never-ending Texas sun and bask in the glory that was the UT campus. We went to several museums and went to some live performances. One night, Seth took me to the Congress bridge to see the bats take off at sunset and it was more amazing than what I remembered it to be. We of course to advantage of the shopping in the city environment and went to two different malls, the Barton Creek Mall and the Highland Mall. Seth then took me to see a show at the Bass Concert Hall before taking me to eat then to a very romantic night at the hotel(use your imagination as to what happened there*wink**wink*).
All in all, it was magical. We had so much fun and it always led to a night alone with the man I love. We did everything possible in that city, going to several parks, museums, shows, stores, movies, restaurants, festivals, and in everything we did, we enjoyed being in each others company.
It was so romantic and fun, I didn't want it to end but like all good things it had to. So after the third week, we packed up our bags and left my hometown to back to my home with my family waiting for us.
*+*+*+*+*(At The Airport)*+*+*+*+*
"Here we are, back home. Well, in Port Angeles but you get the picture" Seth said as he grabbed our bags from the luggage claim.
I giggled, "Oh Seth, yes I get what your saying. And yes, we're technically home"
He grinned widely as he rolled our two suitcases with one duffel bag on top of each(They came as a result of our shopping and gift shop obsession)towards the exit, "See I knew you would get it."
"Dork, now Alice text me that she left our car up front waiting for us to load and drive like crazy people" I said as I opened the door to let him out.
"Um, did she write that or did you say that off the top of your head?" He asked as he popped the trunk of my car and started lifting the bags inside.
I shook my head, "Actually, those were her exact words. It reads, 'Your baby is up front waiting for you to load up and drive like crazy people'"
"Oh" he nodded once as he closed the trunk and opened my door for me, "Well, didn't expect anything less from her"
"Yeah, this is Alice we are talking about" I told him as he took his spot in the drivers seat of my car and we headed off in the direction of our home.
*~*~*~*~*~*S&L*~*~*~*~*~*
"We're Back!" I called as we opened the door to the huge white house and entered the magnificent living room of said house.
"Lily! Seth!" A small black blur flew at us and soon I was on the floor being hugged to death by my pixie sister.
"Alice! I missed you too but I need to get up" I said in the midst of my laughter.
She finally released her hold on me and helped me up only to be lifted in the air and into the huge bear hug of my bear of a brother.
"Em! Can't... breathe!" I choked out as he spun us around once.
"Oops, sorry." he loosened his hold and buried his face in my hair "I missed ya lil' sis"
I hugged him as tightly as I could, "I missed you too, big bro"
Jasper was next, he gave a gentle yet welcoming hug, "Hope you had fun Lily"
The rest of my siblings welcomed us back and now the only ones left were my parents who stood there looking at us as though they would burst into tears.
"Mommy! Daddy!" I ran at them and gave them a huge hug.
"Hey baby girl, did you have fun?" Esme asked as we pulled apart and headed to the living room.
"Yes! It was amazing! We did all sorts of things. We went to, well, everywhere!" I said filled with excitement.
Carlisle was practically beaming before he gave a stern look to Seth who shifted under his gaze, "Good job at bringing my little girl home safely and taking good care of her."
"Dad!" I exclaimed, mortified at my father's words.
He shrugged, "A father's job is never done"
*+*+*+*+*+*+*(A month later)*+*+*+*+*+*
The sun shined brightly through my bedroom bay window as I woke up from one of the best night's sleep I've ever gotten. I looked at the sleeping man next to me and smiled softly. He looked so peaceful. It reminded me of the time I woke up to this sight when I first came to the Cullen household, the night after he told me of his imprint on me. He looked as peaceful as he does now, softened features, lips parted slightly, arms wrapped protectively around me, and of course, his shaggy brown hair all over the place. I sighed, yep still the same only this time, it's the crazy sadistic vampire's mate with lack of power(at least from what I know of). Oh yeah, life just loves to mess with me.
Suddenly, the arms I've grown to love so much, tightened their hold around my waist. I snuggled into his warm chest as I buried my face into my pillow.
"What were you thinking about?" His voice sounded in my ear, his warm breathe tickling my ear.
"Just remembering my first night here and how this is how I woke up. Sun shining through my window, unable to sit up because my boyfriend had me in his arms but now, it's my husband's arms that keep me from sitting up." I told him as I pushed the lock of hair from his eyes.
He shifted me in his arms before he had us in the upright position, him sitting up with me in his lap, "Yeah we have everything the same besides a brace on your wrist and a sore back."
I sighed, "That's what I was thinking. Now can you believe it's been two years?"
I felt his lips against my hair, "Two years and four months."
"I love how you remembered that." I sighed as I thought about what was to happen today. "After today, it's just you and me together forever."
His hold on me tightened on me as he remembered what happens today, "I know I promised to be there for you but please know that this is going to hurt me just as much as it's going to hurt you"
"I know, but I need you there for me and like you said, you promised" I told him as I took in his cinnamon woodsy scent.
He sighed, "I know and I'll be there with you every step of the way, all three days"
I wrapped my arms around him tightly, "Thanks Seth. I love you"
"I love you too, Lily" He said as we enjoyed each others company.
Today was the day. I've been preparing for this day for two years now and it's finally here. Today, I was to be changed. Today, I was to become one of my family to live with them forever along with my Seth at my side. There was good things to this decision and bad things. Good things were, I could stay with my family and my Seth for eternity without worrying of me aging and leaving my family. Another reason it was good(though my family thinks different) is that I can now fight with them when Melina decides to make her appearance to get her revenge on me for her late mate(ha-ha it rhymed), Ross. Bad things were, I could never have children. I could never have miniature versions of Seth and I running around but I believe in my decision and I'm sticking with it all the way through. Plus, I have Seth and my family sticking with me through it all so I know I can do this.
"I think breakfast is ready" Seth said as he stood up from the bed before lifting me up in his arms.
Seth walked us downstairs as I snuggled into his arms inhaling his sweet scent. As we reached the bottom of the stairs, the heavenly scent of waffles, maple syrup, and hot chocolate made it's way to my nose. When we reached the table, Seth sat me down on the chair before taking his place next me. Esme placed a large plate in front of me with a stack of three waffles before placing the bottle of syrup next to the plate. Then she handed me a mug of what I like to call my version of coffee, a steaming mug of hot chocolate.
"Mom, this smells amazing and no doubt will taste just as amazing" I told Esme as I took a sip of my cocoa.
She beamed at me as I covered my waffles in a mother-load of syrup, "Thank you sweetheart, now eat up, I've got some cleaning to do"
After breakfast, we went to Azzy's house to help her pack for her move to Tacoma for her first semester of college at the University of Washington. Mason was there to help as well since he was also going to the same university, in fact, their plan was that they share an apartment together while they attend college.
"Wait! Don't close the trunk yet, we have this last box" Mason shouted as I just about had the trunk closed.
"Mason, I swear that better be the last box or else" I threatened as we shoved the box with the other boxes crowding the now full trunk.
He raised his hands in surrender, "Don't worry that was the last box in the house."
"Good." I slammed the trunk door down and beamed, "There! Azzy your all packed up and ready to head out"
Azzy squealed before hugging me tightly, "Thank you! I'm so excited. This is going to be amazing, just me, Mason, and the college life."
I grinned, "Your going to have an amazing time. Your going to call me when you get there and if Mason doesn't treat you right, call me and I'll be there in a flash with a baseball bat and ice cream."
We laughed before we hugged each other one more time. Azzy pulled back before wiping her eyes and wrapping her arm around Mason's waist as he did the same around Azzy.
"Well, this is it. Good luck you guys and don't forget to call when you get there, got it?" I said.
She nodded, "Don't worry, I won't forget to call you later. Good luck with Seth and make sure that he learns how not to hog up all the food."
I giggled, "Thanks and I will. Bye Azzy, bye Mason!"
They got into their car and Mason started the car. "Bye Lily! Bye Seth! See you soon!" Azzy shouted out the car window as they drove off. Seth and I stood there watching as the dark blue car drove off down the road till it soon disappeared from sight.
Seth gave me one last squeeze before taking my hand in his and leading me to our car. We got in and headed home to where I was to spend the day with the family before I was to become one of my family.
*+*+*+*+(At the Cullen Household)*+*+*+*+*+*
"Oh Lily, the apartment is even more wonderful then it was last month! We're almost finished unpacking we just have to finish with the little things." Azzy told me excitedly as she filled me in on her unpacking adventures.
"You did get the bedroom fixed first? That's the most important thing to finish before the kitchen." I told her seriously.
She scoffed, "Well duh! I know what needs to get done first. So we finished the bedroom, the kitchen, the bathroom and tomorrow, we'll be working on the living room and the walls."
"Good. Sounds amazing Az, and on the bright side, this will be your first night with Mase and I know it will be amazing. I speak from experience with Seth." I giggled.
She laughed, "Thanks for that Lily. Now I got to go, Mason wants to take me out and I still have to find out what to wear!"
"Where's he taking you?"
"I'm not sure, he's keeping it a secret but he said to dress in something semi-formal!"
"Go into your closet, I packed this so I know it's there, but get the green blouse with the flower pin, then find the black skirt you wore for graduation. Also, get the dark green flats, curl your hair in loose curls, light makeup, one small necklace, those earrings your dad gave you for your birthday and there is your outfit for your date tonight."
I heard a small rustle in the phone before Azzy started talking again, "Oh my, thank you so much Lily! I'll call you tomorrow bye!"
"Bye Azzy and good luck" I giggled before hanging up.
A pair of arms wrapped around my waist and by the sparks I felt I knew it was my Seth, "Everything good with Azzy and Mason?"
I nodded, "Yep, they're all good. Mason is taking Azzy out tonight for a celebration for finishing most of the apartment"
He nodded, "That sounds good. You all ready now?"
I looked up into his eyes, "More then ready. Let's do this."
*+*+*+*+*+*+*(SPOV three days later)*+*+*+*+*+*+*
The last three days have been so nerve wracking as I watched my Lily wither in pain. I was worried because she didn't really make a sound besides her occasional whimpers. What scared me the most though was the first day, she wouldn't move. She wouldn't talk, twitch, nothing! She just lied there looking almost dead which caused my heart to break several times.
I've sat here for the last three days, never leaving my Lily's side, my hand wrapped around hers so I could feel the transformation of her skin. Carlisle and Esme have told me that she'll be fine if I leave her for a few minutes but I wasn't taking any chances. Edward told me that he went through the same long wait when Bella was changed so he knew how I felt. Emmett and Rosalie stay downstairs or in they're room to distract themselves while Alice thinks of outfits will go with Lily's new complexion or attempts to get me to leave the room.
"Seth" Alice's bell-like voice broke through my thoughts and my gaze on Lily, "Come on you need to change and most importantly, shower. You stink worse than you usual wolf stink"
I chuckled halfheartedly, "Thanks Alice, but I'm fine."
I heard her sigh, "Seth, I know your fine, and I know you don't want to leave her but do think she'll be happy when she realizes that you sat here for three days, without food, shower and a new change of clothes?"
"Fine" I sighed, I knew she was right. Lily would kill me if I wasn't decent and fed.
"Yay! Alright, I laid out an outfit on the bed and Esme will bring in lunch when you finished with your shower" She said before skipping out of the room.
I chuckled before I looked at my angel who was reaching the last round of the transformation. Her face was contorted in pain but she was looking even more beautiful than ever. My heart ached as I heard her whimper. I kissed her forehead and cheeks before walking upstairs to our room.
As Alice had said, a dark gray t-shirt and dark wash jeans lied on the bed while a pair of black vans sat on the floor by the bed. I went to the bathroom and took a quick shower before drying off and changing into the clothes. There was a knock on the door as I slipped on my shoes.
"Here you go sweetheart. I hope you like it. I also just checked in on Lily before I came in and she's doing just fine. Her heart is starting to speed up so it's just a little over twenty minutes according to Carlisle." Esme said as she handed me a tray with a ham sandwich and a can of coke.
"Thanks Esme, not just for the food, but for everything" I told her as I took the tray.
She beamed before giving me a hug, "Your welcome Seth. Now eat up, you have a wife to see."
I grinned as she walked out and I scarfed my sandwich down in four bites and washing it down with the coke realizing just how hungry I was. Then I took the tray downstairs to the kitchen, quickly cleaned up and headed back upstairs to Carlisle's office. I opened the door to see the whole family in the room.
"Is it almost time?" I asked as I made my way to my chair next to Lily.
"Yep, her heart rate has increased tremendously since you left. She's turning out great." Carlisle informed me.
I grinned, of course she was turning out great, she's Lily and Lily is just full on amazing. It took a minute for me to realize that Alice had dressed her while I was gone as well. "Your welcome!" Oh Alice. She dressed her in a red plaid dress, black flats, a dark gray shrug, her locket and her signature black rose clip.
"Five seconds!" Alice squealed.
I beamed as I looked over at my Lily to see her eyes flutter open. Soon, bright crimson met brown and it was time for a new beginning.
Okay! So as i said up on top, this is the last chapter and i'm sorry it's total crap. It would be slightly better but i had so much to fit in and my life is total crap right now, for those who read the author's note in Miracles Do Come True will know part of the reason but other things such as school and other stuff came up and i'm about to explode. But! Despite my not wanting to continuing, i sucked it up and i put this up because i reread y'alls reviews and it gave me a boost. So again sorry that it's so late but life just wanted to beat me up.
Soo...moving on, what do y'all think? be honest, i can take it. if you think its crap, tell me. if you absolutely love it, tell me. whatever you think, just please review.
Okay, this is the last chapter, next is the epilogue which i'm writing as you read this and i hope to have it up soon.
