*Disclaimer: I own nothing*

Clarifications from last chapter: Masen is two years old (I got a little mixed up with my ages so in the last chapter he was just learning how to walk but a two year old can already walk so never mind that).

"Masen Anthony Charles Swan" I holler up the stairs. The moving trucks will be here any minute and I still have to finish packing a few things. "Momma look kitty!" he yells from his room. I open the door to find Masen curled up in the cat bed with kitty. As cute a moment as this is I really need to teach him not to use the cat bed. He had already fallen asleep in it two times this week.

With a sigh I decide to let him stay there while I finish packing. Just as I finish packing the last box, minus the things I would be driving over in a bit, I heard Charlie pull up. "Sorry I'm late, the moving trucks were right behind me so we better start brining some stuff out" He yells up the stairs. I hastily grab the box I had just finished packing along with a few other things to carry downstairs. When I reach the bottom of the stairs I see Charlie and two big men I assume are the movers, one of them takes my boxes and the other asks where to get the rest. I tell him they are upstairs and decide now is a good time to rescue Kitty from Masen.

When I go back into Masen's room, I suddenly feel a little sad. We will be leaving our home today. I still remember our first night here. I cried all night. Things didn't turn out how I expected they would but now I can't say I regret anything. Masen is the best thing that ever happened to me regardless of everything I went through to have him.

After I found out I was pregnant it was like I came out this haze of constantly missing Edward. I had to take care of myself. That's not to say I didn't think about my options I mean I was a junior in high school hello? I was not planning to have a kid while I was still a kid. I actually even made an appointment to talk to a doctor about my options but at that time I missed Edward so much I simply couldn't think about having this little part of him. I also worried about whether or not Mason would be human but so far there have been no signs to suspect otherwise.

I never could have stayed in school if it hadn't been for Charlie.

"So I think I should try to get my GED before I have the baby." I told Charlie, I had been thinking about it for a while and I just didn't see how I could do senior year after I gave birth. "No" he said and I looked up from my dinner surprised. "But I mean it's not like I can finish high school and at least it better than nothing" I argued. "No, you are not dropping out of high school. I will work nights so I can watch him while you are at school and when you work on weekends." I was shocked by his kindness but I couldn't let him do this, it was my choice to have this baby, "No, I can't let you do that it's too much" I insisted. "Well there is no way I am not seeing my little girl graduate so you will just have to accept it.

I could never repay Charlie for how wonderful he was with Masen and how he encouraged me to apply for college and scholarships. When I got into SeattleU with a full scholarship and decided to take a year off to work, he insisted he wanted to do anything he could to help and even helped me find a decent paying job and apartment in Port Angeles.

"Hi, I saw a listing that this apartment is for rent, I would like to rent it." I said to the older man sitting on the steps. "Aren't you a little young to be renting an apartment?" he asked a bit condescendingly. "I am eighteen and I just got a job at the café down the street, this is the perfect location and I can give the down payment today." I replied trying to act as together as I could. "Well that's good enough for me, we will have to go to my realtors and you can sign the lease today."

"Look Masen! This is our new home!" I announced proudly to my beautiful baby boy. I had only graduated high school a month ago but I needed a more stable job and daycare than I could get in Forks so I made the decision to take a year off before college and move to Port Angeles to make some savings. I was happy all day, putting things away and showing Masen around, but when Masen fell asleep, I felt so alone. I had gotten a two bedroom so Masen could have his own room but I missed having him with me. I still couldn't believe Edward never came back for us but with everyday I was learning how to move on.

The next day I took Masen to pick out a kitten so the apartment wouldn't be so lonely. He immediately fell in love with a tiny white cat that he named "Kitty". As time went on I settled into my new job and spending time with Masen. I got a second job working weekends at the local pub to make some more money and Charlie volunteered to watch Masen those nights.

This apartment is filled with memories but I know I need to move on. Besides just because I had become a cliché teen mom did not mean I was willing to forgo my education. So we packed up our lives and today we move to Seattle.

I pick up Masen "Whoa boy when did you get so big?" I ask chuckling. It seems like he gains ten pounds a day. I carry Masen downstairs to find the movers have packed just about everything into the truck. "We're just about ready to go Bells, my car is packed as well, do you want me to wait or should I go with the movers to make sure the unload everything into the right place?" He asks with a smile. "No you go, I'll head over there soon I just have to do a couple things, do you think you could bring Kitty though?" I ask hoping me and Masen can have a few minutes to say goodbye to our first home. "Sure thing Bells, I'll see you soon" he smiles and ushers the movers out with their last load.

I watch Charlie drive away then sigh. "I guess its just you and me huh" I say to Masen. "Momma sleep time." He says cuddling into my arms. I place him in his crib and load the last things into my car. I look at the place from the outside, it isn't much, an old two family home we shared with a friendly young couple, near downtown, but it was our home. I walk back into Masen's room pick him up and grab the awkwardly shaped crib attempting to carry them both downstairs. It's a struggle but my balance really has gotten much better since becoming a mom. I buckle Masen into his car seat and get into the drivers seat. "Goodbye" I whisper to our old home and drive away.

So we still haven't seen Edward and it'll probably still be a couple chapters till we do. I know this didn't go far but I thought it gave a little history. I would love to know if it's too confusing or anything…

Also I really think this song goes well with the story (and Kina Grannis has a beautiful voice). ..
