Emmett dropped the bomb that the nomad got away. What will happen now that Lyn knows this?

Epilogue

Without being told I locked myself up in the house, spending my time reading and surfing the internet; my mother had become so busy with her tour that she barely had time to email me and complain about my lack of updates. Even though I'd only been locked up in the house for a week, showing absolutely no want to go out, I was starting to go crazy on the inside. I was afraid to go outside for the simple fact that we didn't know where the mysterious nomad had gone, but internally I was dying to go out into the cloudy grey daylight. Bella and I had become closer due to my experience. Bella, Alice, and Rose had tried to coax me into a night on the town, but I vehemently refused.

After having locked myself up for almost a month, Carlisle came to my room to speak with me. "Cristalyn," he began in a stern yet gentle voice. "You need to start going outside again." I shook my head. "Lyn, there's been no sign of the nomad since that day. You'll be starting college soon, and the girls want to take you shopping." I felt shocked as he made that statement. Running to my calendar on the wall next to the entertainment stand, I looked for the day classes started at the Port Angeles college I'd be attending. I saw the block that I'd surrounded with tons of multi-colored Sharpie markers.

"Oh my god!" I squeaked; Carlisle had been right. Classes started in less than a week, and I realized something else as I looked at the calendar. "I've been locked up in here, of my own volition, for almost two and a half months?!" I saw Carlisle nodding his head as I turned to face him again. Making my mind up, I smiled at Carlisle and felt more like myself. "Thank you, Carlisle. For reminding me who I really am."

"Anytime." Carlisle followed me out of my room as I went down the stairs and into the hallway. I could see everyone playing video games on Charlie's flatscreen; even Riley was laughing and playing games with them. Esme was standing in the hall as Carlisle and I descended.

Carlisle stopped long enough to kiss Esme on the cheek and then walked toward the living room. Esme smiled at me and hugged me. "Glad to hear you're feeling more like yourself." She kissed my cheek and released me. She led me into the living room and over to my sister.

Alice and Rose, who were playing Mario Kart, paused their game and looked my way. When they looked at me so did everyone else. "Hi." I said sheepishly. Emmett and the other guys laughed at my greeting. I punched my boyfriend's arm lightly and glared playfully at him. I looked at my sister who was standing near Alice and Rose. "I was actually wondering if we could take that shopping trip. School starts in less than a week, and I was thinking that I might need some new clothes."

Alice's melodic laugh filled my ears as she grabbed my hand, and her purse from off the couch. Laughter filled the house as Alice, Rose, Bella and I walked out of the house and into the garage. One of the garage doors opened as we piled into Alice's Porsche 911 Turbo. Kevin Rudolph's "Let It Rock" blasted through the speakers of the car as Alice peeled out of the garage going from zero to sixty in two seconds.

I hope you all liked the story! I really had a blast writing my first Twilight fic, and it was with your guys' encouragement that helped me finish. I see a possible sequel in the makes; after all, we don't know what happened to the mysterious nomad who was after Lyn. All we do know is that he got away. Reviews are always welcome! Thanks for reading and I hoped you enjoyed it!
