Chapter 19

Bella's POV

Rose and I called everybody to the living room. We wanted to tell them about the big news. I am so ecstatic right now. I never knew I could be this happy again since Edward left me. I have fully realized that Edward will always be my first love but it doesn't matter anymore. I realized that being so hung up takes a huge toll on you. You are the cause of your own depression. The only reason why a person fully falls into deep depression is because they let the sadness, the anger take hold of them. They allow them rule their lives. I learned the hard way.

Years ago, when Edward left me, I was stupid enough to almost kill myself. At that time, it seemed just because my love, my soul mate left me and I believed that I had nothing else to live for. Right now, I realized that if the love Edward and I really had, no matter what reasons there were, he would come back sooner. I know that he told me that it was for my protection but sometimes, well, may times I have questioned if Edward and I were really meant together or would we be the keys to finding true happiness? I guess I would go with the keys thing.

Despite all the pain, I could never blame Edward for anything. These things were meant to happen for a reason. Besides, even if Edward did cheat on me, he was the man who brought Nessie to this life and I could never eve resent that. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me. And Edward brought me to Rosalie. Who would have thought that Edward's sister, the same sister who hated me, who completely loathed me, would be the person that I would be in love with right now?

I looked at the beautiful blonde goddess beside me and she turned to look at me as well. She flashed a breath-taking smile at me. If I could blush, I definitely would. She mouthed 'I love you' and I mouthed it back. Everyone was finally at the living room. I observed their faces. Carlisle and Esme were sitting on the loveseat. Both had curious yet happy expressions. They both smiled reassuringly. Travis had his usual smirk on his face. He winked at the two of us and mouthed 'Go for it'. I first thought that he was an asshole heartbreaker but he is pretty nice. Alice was bouncing up and down and was really excited and she was curious. We can do this. I took a deep breath and let it out.

"So, Bella, Rosalie, what is it that you want to tell us?" Carlisle asked, cheerfully. I gulped. "Bella, dear, why do you like you are about to have a heart attack? Calm down." He smiled.

This is a now or soon or never thing. Woooh! Go Bella! How hard could this be? Are you chickening out Bella? You're the frail human who was in a relationship with a vampire who happened to be craving for your blood, you were best friends with a temperamental werewolf, you were chased by crazy nomadic blood-crazy vampires, and you're scared of doing this? Now I'm talking to myself. I think I have officially gone insane. Ughh….. I heard Rose clear her throat. I looked at her and she smiled reassuringly at me. Just that moment, everything was better. She gave me the strength to do this. With her, I can do anything.

Rosalie's POV

This is the moment we tell everyone about us. I know that it has only been a few hours but I have never been surer of anything else in my life. Is it cheesy if I say I think she will be the one to complete me? I have turned into a huge cheeseball. I feel so fuzzy inside. And I'm supposed to be the Ice Queen but Bella has melted what Emmett never melted. That was just corny. I'm supposed to be bad ass. It's time we tell them. All of them deserve to know. I'm sure that Carlisle and Emmett would be very accepting. They are the kindest and most compassionate people I've ever met. I took a deep breath. Here goes…..

"Carlisle, Esme, Alice and Travis, Bella and I would like to tell you guys something important." I said seriously. They nodded and Travis grinned.

"Go ahead, dears. We are ready for whatever you are going to say." Esme said kindly.

"W-well, y-you s-see.. We… uhhh… and… mall…. Uhhh…" Bella stuttered. It was just so cute. Everybody laughed and I knew if she were still human, she would be a bright tomato red.

"Bella, chill out. Take it easy." Alice said, enthusiastically.

"SomanythingshappenedandI'." Bella gushed out. And I have to say that I did not understand anything at all. I giggled. She is the most adorable person ever.

"Bella, you do know that we did not understand a single word you said. Cat got your tongue?" Travis teased as he winked at us and then smiled.

"What Bella was trying to say was…." I started off.

"What I was trying to say was…" Bella trailed off.

"Oh come on, guys! Just spit it out!" Travis said excitedly. He already fucking knew.

"What we want to say is that we are in love. I, Rosalie Lillian Hale, absolutely love Bella and I never want to change that and whatever your opinion is, I will still love Bella no matter what." I professed.

There was silence for a while and I heard Travis groan. Suddenly, Bella kissed me in front of everyone. Travis was laughing. We stopped when we heard someone clear his/her throat. I lost track of time when she kissed me. We broke away and Bella winked at me. Oh gosh, so beautifully sexy. Just then I heard Alice squeal. She jumped up and tackled Bella and I to the ground and hugged us.

"You two look so adorable together! I just had to say thaaaaaaaat! I am so happy for the both of you! Congratulations!" Alice shouted even though we were so close. I winced at the loudness of her voice. She realized that so she stood up and helped us up. Carlisle and Esme then scooped the both of us into a hug of their own.

"You two deserve each other. Congratulations." Carlisle said happily, a smile adorning his face.

"I am so happy for the both of you. You two take care of each other, okay? Make each other happy. I'm so happy. Thank God. This is really great news!" Esme gushed.

This day is absolutely wonderful. Everyone is so happy and proud of us. Bella smiled at me and I winked at her then smiled back. I can finally say that she is my Bella. My Bella. It has a ring to it. It sounds so good.

"May I say that you two ladies look hot together?" Travis said as he winked at us. That earned him a smack on the head from Alice. Everyone laughed.

Laughter. That has somewhat been foreign to us the past few months. Everything was looking up for us and finally, everything seemed like it was getting almost… Better?
