About fifty years had passed, give or take a few, since I had become a vampire. Fifty years since I had seen or heard from the Cullen family, not that they knew of my changing and fifty years since I had brought a little boy into this world.

True he was no longer little, he had grown.

He looked more like my brother than my son. His dark brown hair was slightly curly like his fathers. While his eyes, I imagined, were the same as Emmett's, a beautiful shade of green.

Emmett had never found out about my, condition, and a part of me was glad. I didn't want to release his unfaithfulness to Rosalie and disturb the balance the Cullen family had strived for. So instead I ran away after finding out I was pregnant, not wanting to burden Charlie with a child or the supernatural.

I took off to Texas, remembering when Jasper told me that his friends lived there, Charlotte and Peter. I arrive shortly before I was due to give birth and they accepted me with open arms. They wanted to tell Jasper after I had told them who the father was but I forbade it. Ha. It took some persuasion and begging on my part so they would not to tell Jasper.

A few weeks later my little boy, Kohl, entered the world.

Charlotte had laid him on my chest when he bit me. My whole world changed drastically within three days' time. When I awoke from my change, Kohl was already the size of a toddler. I was sad, missing out on his rapid growth from tiny baby to toddler but I was glad to still be around for him.

Charlotte and Peter had begged me to inform Emmett of Kohl but I didn't want to ruin the life he had made for himself, with his mate.

I think they understood my reasoning but went behind my back anyway and called Jasper when Kohl was about 7 years old looking.

"What did you do Char?" I whispered.

A dry sob broke from Char, "We called Jasper and told him to come visit. They need to know Bella, they deserve to know."

"I told you no and you went behind my back and did it anyway?" I was seething mad; they weren't allowed to make choices for me.

"We did it for Kohl's sake; he has a right to know his father." Peter chimed in.

"Did you ever think of the possibility that Emmett may not want to be a part of his life? Then what? Kohl lives with the fact that his father doesn't want anything to do with him? No you were doing this so you didn't have to lie to Jasper." I spat.

Charlotte at least had the decency to look ashamed. Peter on the other hand held his ground, not budging his stance on the subject. He believed he was doing what was right.

I was done, done being told how to live my life and done with them going above my head, "I'm leaving."

That was 40 years ago.

Currently Kohl and I live in Washington, away from Forks.

I fear he will be leaving me soon though, he has found a girl who is also a vampire, Aria. They have been spending more and more time together. Sometimes I wish he had a father to tell him how to treat a girl or have the sex talk. But Kohl told me I do a wonderful job.

He has known for a while who his father is but he assured me that it doesn't matter. That I will be the only parent he ever needs and the only one that matters.

I can't help but feel saddened by the fact that I never searched Emmett out. At the same time I am glad that I didn't. He hadn't made me any promises that day, no whispers of love and running off together. It was simply him lending me a helping hand. Nothing more, nothing less.

A/N This is the closer I think the story needed. Hope you enjoyed it.
