Recap-

He had no choice in how his life was back then and now he chooses to live a better life. I hugged him and told him that there was nothing to forgive. Jasper and I grew closer at that moment and I knew this was the best family; I made the right choice in choosing them.

Chapter 35: It's time for a new start

(Jasper POV)

Bella had come home and I felt like it was my fault that my mother and father had taken her to hurt my family for my choices. I love Alice and I'll do whatever it takes to be with her.

Edward was going out of his mind and with all the changes happening to him lately, this had hit him hard. I could feel everything he was feeling and I haven't felt pain like that in years.

I'm unsure of all the physical changes that Edward was experiencing but the emotional ones hit me like a ton of bricks. Now that Bella's home, he's calmer and my headache is going away.

I can tell that baby Jason was happy to be back home with his mommy and his daddy. He has something special going on but I can't quite pinpoint it at the moment; so until his birth, I'll have to wait.

Bella and I have spent a lot of time together over the last few days and I'm thankful for having her in my life and in the life of my wife. Alice just loves her and now I understand, myself why she does.'

(Bella POV)

Edward would not give up on finding Aro and Tori. He was going to make them pay for even touching a hair on my head. Jason was happy, he was moving around all the time and I could feel him getting stronger.

Carlisle said that he should be coming any day in the next few weeks. Okay, so he didn't necessarily say 'he' but I just know that that is what my baby is.

Alice is getting more and more hyper, if that was even possible. Rosalie has even been extra careful around Edward and me. I don't know what is up but she's blocking me out of her mind. All I get from any of them is 'strength and get more powerful.'

None of it made any sense to me. As each day passed, Edward and I became more and more alike; he's becoming more human and I'm becoming more vampire. It's like we've drawn the best qualities from each other and now we just are.

Edward and I drink from each other more often now because Jason needs it, I think, and it's very intimate for Edward and me. This might sound weird but Edward and I have connected on a whole other level.

I had talked to my mother today and she's doing well and that her and my dad, Charlie, was having a baby brother for me. Dad said they are going to name him Eric Charles. I told him that was wonderful and now he has the son he's always wanted.

He told me that he loved me and that Eric would never take my place in his heart. That made me cry.

"Love, what is it, why are you crying?" Edward asked.

"Nothing is wrong with Jason, I was just thinking about the phone call with my dad from yesterday," I told him.

"Don't you mean there's nothing wrong with Clair?" he asked playfully. Then he brought his lips to mine and kissed my deeply.

"Bella, love, let's run to the meadow, I want to make love to you and no one will hears us there," Edward whispered to me.

Before I could answer, he was kissing me again and then he grabbed my hand and out the front door we ran. I was happy to do this, it helped push the whole Aro thing out of my mind and whenever I thought about it, Jason would kick harder because it hurt him and he didn't even know why yet.

(Edward POV)

After everything that Bella and I had gone through, I was never going to let her out of my sight again. Alice and I were waiting for her when she got free. Alice said that Bella was going to kill Tori but I stopped her.

Jasper was also there waiting for Bella, he blamed all of this on himself. Aro and Tori are his parents and they told him they would make him and his new family pay someday for the pain he had brought down on Tori and the house of Volturi.

I formulated a plan today, I was going to make Bella forget everything but her and me for a while. I was going to take her to the meadow and make love to the love of my life, I want Bella and me to get married before Clair comes and my time is ticking down.

I had asked Alice to help me get everything set up. I was going to press it today and have Bella marry me tomorrow, here in our meadow. I've already talked to Charlie and Renee about it and it's all ready, now all I need is for my Bella to say yes.

I'm starting to understand the changes that Bella and I are going through; Carlisle and I have been doing lots of studying on it and all that we have found leads me to believe that Bella, Clair, and I will live forever, just like vampires do.

We just need to eat both food and blood, we sleep and cry and have all the best parts from both worlds. This makes me happy to know that Bella will forever be well. All her clumsiness is gone from her.

So I pressed my lips to hers and kissed her with as must force as I could and asked her to go to the meadow with me. I still know what my love likes and she followed me out the door and into the woods.

As we came upon the opening, I looked at Bella and watched as her eyes went small and smiled the biggest smile I have ever seen.

I dropped to one knee and asked my Bella to marry me again.

"Bella, love, I know that I have asked this before but I would like to have your hand before our baby is born. So, my love, will you marry me tomorrow?" I asked,

The tears rolled down her face and as she said, "Yes, as long as Charlie said it was alright."

I told her he did and I picked up my Bella and carried her over to the blanket that Alice had laid out with rose pedals all over it.

Bella and I made love all afternoon under the bright yellow sun and drank from each other. This, by far, was the best day of my life. We laid there till the moon came out and talked about everything and how I had to let it go or it could tear us apart.

I agreed to let it be for now; I told her that she and Clair were the most important things to me.

Sorry for the delay. We have been sick at my house; I have not felt like writing very much. The next chapter will have the wedding and the birth of the baby, as you know from Jasper it is a boy. And I also had written that Bella and Edward would not die and that is how it should be. But don't think that Tori or Aro will get off scot free because that could never happen. At least not in my world, lol. Thanks for reading, and thanks to my beta Strawberry9212.
