Disclaimer: All the wonderful Twilight characters belong to Stephenie Meyer, however the story 'Goodbye, Former Miss. Swan' belongs to me.

VOILA! HERE IS CHAPTER 15, THE LAST CHAPTER! :D I know this is alot shorter than the first story in the series, but I know people have been wanting a happy ending...

Please remember to stop by my poll to vote for the possible sequel, and whether you want one or not. If you have any suggestions for a storyline for the possible sequel, please PM me-I need a little help to start planning it. Of course, all due credit will go to whoever suggests the idea.

I'm currently looking for a Beta Reader. If you would like to help, please PM me or leave it in a review. I will get back to you as soon as I can, after I take a look at stories that you have written and your Beta Reader profile.

Chapter Fifteen: Finality

Edward POV

Bella and I were currently sitting in her room, lounging across her bed. My back was propped onto the headboard, and Bella was in my lap, her head resting against my chest. My hand was absentmindly stroking her hair, long, soft, deliberate strokes.

I was overjoyed when Bella returned to me from wherever Peter's minion had taken her. I thought my heart was going to stop when I saw her, weak and staggering, but determindly walking towards me. But even in her past state, she still was beautiful to me.

"Edward." My love's beautiful voice pulled me from my thoughts. I leaned my head down and kissed her forehead. "Yes, my dear?"

"What will happen after this?" I looked at her with confusion. "What do you mean, Bella?"

She turned so she could get a better look at me, her golden eyes piercing. "I mean...I'm not sure Aro will let me go so easily. I want to go back and live with you and the others, but...Aro might make me stay here. I don't want to be away from you anymore than I already have been, Edward."

I froze when she said what she had said. She did have a point-Bella was powerful, so there was a good chance that Aro wouldn't let her leave. But like her, I couldn't bear the thought of being away from her anymore.

I know knew what I had to do. I picked her up and sat her on the edge of the bed. She looked hurt, but I silenced her fears by kissing her gently. "Give me a second, love."

Picking up the black velvet box I had been carrying around with me for the past 150 years, I knelt before Bella on one knee and opened the box slowly. Her eyes widened as she saw the ring that was nestled in between the soft cloth, and her hand flew to her mouth.

"Bella, I have known for a long time that my life is nothing without you. I cherish your smile, your beautiful face, your voice, and your melodious laugh every day. Each day I am grateful for the time we spend together."

I take a deep breath, pausing for a moment.

"Bella, please do me the honor of becoming my wife. Make me the happiest man on earth."

Bella POV

I gaped at the sight before me. I couldn't believe that this was happening. In all my life, I had never dreamed about this.

Of course, I wasn'tsaying that it was a bad thing, but it wasn't necessarily something that I had been expecting. I didn't know what to say.

I was sure that I resembeled a fish currently, with my eyes wide and my mouth gaping. I closed it and opened it again, not knowing what to say.

My thoughts all ran together. Yes, or no? Yes, or no? UGH! I couldn't decide. Too many things were running through my brain right now, and even at vampire speed, I couldn't process any of them clearly.

"Edward...I...I..."

Edward POV

Please, Bella, please. I thought desperately. If she refused, I didn't know what I would do.

My entire life, I knew I was going to do something like this. I didn't know when, but I knew it was going to happen, sooner or later. Whether in 10 years, whether in a hundred.

I doubted that even Alice could know when I would decide what to do, or when to ask it.

My knee scraped the ground. I was slightly afraid to look up, scared by the rejection I may face.

I imagined life if Bella would accept. She, of course, would make me the happiest vampire alive. I would spend the rest of my days just pleasing her, giving her anything her heart desired.

If only she said yes.

Her mouth moved, and I saw it form the shape of a word. Yes, she mouthed.

I felt something burst inside of me. I jumped up and crushed her to my chest, kissing her furiously. While my mouth was covering her, I seeked out her hand and slipped the glittering ring onto her finger. Outside the door, I could hear someone squealing. I chuckled-it was defintely Alice.

Thank god we didn't need air. Bella kept herself pressed up against me, seizing my face between her hands and never letting go. I didn't know how long we stood there, but soon, Emmett came barreling through the door and jerked Bella out of my grasp. I growled, but then I relaxed seeing him swinging her around in a circle.

"YAHOO! I GOTS A NEW SISTER! TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH, EDDIE!" I was so happy that I didn't even bother to correct Emmett on his use of my hated nickname.

The rest of my family-well, our family now-filed in through the door, all giving Bella a hug and officialy welcoming her into the family. Of course, all of us knew that she was already part of our family, but now it was going to be official. Esme looked like she would cry if she could, and Carlisle was patting my back silently, smiling.

"WHERE IS SHE?" Kira came bursting into the door, knocking Bella slightly off her foot and engulfing her into a huge hug. Sophia, Desha, and Ginger followed her, all jumping on my dear Bella until they were in a huge pile on the floor. I was worried slightly about Bella being crushed underneath all that weight, but I stopped and rationalized with myself. She was indestructible now.

"We should totally give everyone a concert! Come on, it's a brilliant idea!" Desha shouted, pulling Bella up by her hands and dancing around.

Emmett's laugh boomed through the entire room. "A concert? Bella can't even play any instruments!"

"Oh yeah?"

Bella stood up, her eyes mischievous, dancing with delight. "You've missed out on alot Emmett. I've been learning these past years."

He snorted. "Playing what? A washboard?"

Immediately Bella was flanked by Kira, Desha, Sophia, and Ginger. Ginger clucked her tongue at him. "Don't talk to our mistress like that. She can play the bass guitar, violin, viola, bass, cello," she looked over at Desha, who continued.

"Keyboard, harp, drums, cymbals,"

"Oboe, trumpet, tuba, french horn," Sophia piped up,

"and trombone, flute, chimes, electric guitar, and piano." Kira finished.

I'm sure all our faces mirrored shock. Even I, myself didn't know how to play that many instruments.

"She does great vocals, and she can mix the best techno!" Desha added again.

By the look on Bella's face, I could see how embarresed she was, and I knew that if she could blush, she would. "Kira, calm down. We'll do it tonight, but we need to prep first."

The room was filled with cheers and the girls launched themselves on Bella again, but this time, she held herself up, supporting all their weight.

I smiled at her, and once she caught my glance, her face broke out into the most stunning grin I had ever seen her wear. Crossing over to her, I pulled her into my chest and kissed her softly, fingering her ring and pressing my nose into her hair.

Everyone else left the room, leaving us with our privacy.

"Edward, I never imagined I could be this happy again...It seems like I've re healed, like nothing was wrong before." She murmured into my chest, her voice slightly muffled but still clear and musical.

I tucked her head beneath my chin. "You've taken the words right out of my mouth, Mrs. Soon-To-Be-Cullen." Bella laughed, her petite form vibrating against my chest.

"Yes, and I'm finally ready for my forever."

I didn't respond, but instead just tilted her chin up, and gave her a long, sweet, yet passionate kiss, signaling our promise that would inevitably last for the rest of eternity.

THE END

Well, thats the end to my lovely story. The sequel will probably be up next week, and the concert that was mentioned in this chapter will be in a bonus chapter for this story once I find the time to write it, probably in a week or two.

Thanks to all my wonderful readers and your reviews-it's because of all of you that I had the motivation to keep going, even when it was tough. :)

My poll will be closed on Friday, so if you haven't voted, please go and vote!

UNTIL NEXT TIME!
