A/N: So i have decided this will be the last chapter. Really the story ended in the chapter before this, but I couldn't just leave it hanging so this is a little bonus chap. Its not really relevant, just a little extra something. Sorry if it's stupid. :) Enjoy!

I felt a rush of euphoria as we rounded the corner, came out of the trees and into the familiar clearing. All the lights in the house were on and there was small pile of empty boxes on the front porch.

"Looks like Esme's got most everything moved back in." I noted.

"Well she had to keep herself busy doing something while you were on your little suicide mission." Emmett said. "If you had- you know- done it, we were all planning on moving back."

This surprised me, if the Volturi had killed me they would have moved back here?

"Forks was really the only place we've ever been happy, the only thing keeping us away was you." Rosalie snapped. "Now that you're alive you're not going to make us move after we just got settled in are you?" She glared at me through the rear view mirror.

"Shesh Rose, way to be insensitive." Emmett mumbled.

I sighed, as cruel as Rosalie's words had been, she was right. Forks had been the only place where we could live a relatively normal life and be happy. But she needn't worry. Not even the Volturi could pull me away from this town now.

"It's okay Rose, I'm not going anywhere."

She looked at me for a long moment, then nodded and got out of the car. I sighed and followed suit, trudging up the front steps into the house. I was barley inside when I felt something hard and cold hit my cheek. I reared back and saw Esme standing livid in front of me.

"Don't," slap. "You," slap. "Ever," slap. "Do that to me again." I stared at her aghast. Her face was flushed and her eyes were narrowed.

"Don't think what you did isn't going to come without consequences. I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO DIE, EDWARD! DIE!" She bellowed. Her voice was causing the windows to tremble. Do you have any idea what it's like for a mother to believe her child is in danger, much less dying? And for no apparent cause?"

Her body shook with anger, her chest heaved in and out. My cheek was stinging slightly. I glanced around me, Rosalie and Emmett were stopped in the doorway, both with an expression of shock on their faces, and Emmett's mouth was hanging open. Jasper and Alice were perched on the stairs; Alice was covering her giggles with her hand.

Carlisle's on his way. She thought.

Esme opened her mouth about to say something when the back door flew open and Carlisle was immediately by Esme's side, pulling her hand away from my face.

"What is going on?" He growled.

"Edwards in trouble," Emmett snickered. Esme snarled at him and he took a step back.

"I'm just letting Edward know that there will be consequences to his actions." Esme said. Suddenly her eyes softened and filled with emotion. She broke free from Carlisle's arms and rushed towards me. I braced myself for another attack, but found myself caught in her embrace instead.

"Please don't scare me like that again Edward. Please." She whispered. I relaxed and hugged her.

"I'm sorry Esme, I really am."

She sighed and pulled away, scrutinizing my cheek.

"I'm not sorry for what I did to you." She said flatly. "Quite frankly you deserved it." With that she turned away and pulled Carlisle into the kitchen with her.

We all stood still for a moment, stunned by what had just occured. Never in all my years had I ever seen Esme so angry. Not when Emmett smashed through three houses in a row, or when Alice threw all Esme's clothes away in an attempt to modernize her closet, or even when Jasper and I ruined her whole garden while wrestling.

"Women," Emmett muttered, we all laughed and the tension was broken. Thanks to Jasper I felt a sense of calm rush over me. I slowly made my way up to my room, taking my time on each step. I entered my room to find a pile of boxes marked "Edward" littering the floor. I felt a presence behind me and I turned to see Alice perched on a box by the door. She hesitated but stood up and walked over to me.

"Your not going to leave again, are you?" She whispered. "I don't think anyone, Bella nor us, could take it." Her wide, honey colored eyes bore into me. I was sure she was searching my future for any sign of departure.

"I think it's physically impossible for me to leave her now. I can see my absence was hard on her, perhaps as hard as it was for me. Now that we have been reunited, now that I have held her in my arms again, it will be impossible for me to leave her. She's my world Alice, with out her I am nothing. Bella is my everything, what I live for. She's all the good there is in this world bundled up into one adorable package…of course there is the possibility she won't want me any more…and if she doesn't I will completely understand. I mean after what I put her through I-"

"Edward, shut up!" Alice screeched. "Trust me she wants you. She wants you more than you know." She patted my arm reassuringly. "Don't worry about it. For now just worry about getting all this junk unpacked, tomorrow afternoon you can go over to Bella's, she won't be awake but there a good deal Charlie needs to say to you and it's probably better if Bella's asleep during it."

I chuckled and hugged Alice.

"Thanks Alice, you know I really missed you."

"I missed you too Edward, a lot."

"Hey do you want to help me unpack?"

"Sorry Edward I didn't miss you that much," she turned and gracefully twirled out of the room. I laughed, watching her go. I walked over to the window and looked out, Emmett and Carlisle were moving a patio table out to the centre of the garden. It was morning now, the clouds were already turning a deep grey. Just like usual, it would rain today in Forks, but inside I had never felt more radiant.

The End.

Lameee last line I know ;) Review and tell me what my next story should be!
