Forever Together

Several days passed.

By a miracle, Edward was given the medical treatment he needed and would make a full recovery. Though he would need to rest in bed for a few days. Since Aro was destroyed, a new leader for the Volturi was chosen. The werewolves and vampires had made peace and had come to an agreement. Billy accepted that Jacob did not love Bella in a romantic way and left the pair alone. Everyone accepted each other and even became friends.

Edward woke up a week after being treated.

Bella was sitting beside him, rubbing his icy hand.

"Hey," she said, when he woke up. "How're you feeling?"

"Like I died and went to heaven," said Edward, earning a small chuckle from Bella. "What happened?"

"You saved my dad's life. Aro was destroyed, a new leader's been chosen for the Volturi and there's a peace treaty between our peoples. A lot of the vampires are going to Rome, but the rest plan on staying here and becoming vegetarians, And the rest of us are just fine—worried about you, but fine."

"Good," said Edward, relieved. He squeezed her hand when he saw the worry in her eyes. "I would never leave you, Bells."

"Promise?" said Bella. "Please, just promise me. I need a little reassurance after nearly losing you twice."

"I promise, I will never, ever leave you," said Edward as they kissed, only to be interrupted by Charlie.

"Hello, Mr. Cullen," he said.

"Chief Swan," said Edward. "I—"

"Look, I just want to say that I was wrong about you," Charlie interrupted. "You're not evil. And I am willing to accept the two of you being together. You and your family are always welcome here…my son."

Bella and Edward's faces lit up as Bella hugged her father.

"Thank you," they said.

Five Years Later

Bella was watching her vampire and werewolf family play with her and Edward's daughter, Reenesme. A year after Bella and Edward's wedding, she was changed by Edward at her personal request and had had a miracle daughter a few months later.

Reenesme was nicknamed "Nessie" by Jacob, who was particularly fond of her and was the spitting image of her parents. She was adored by both the vampires and the werewolf families and loved both groups tremendously.

Everything was perfect.

As Bella fingered her mother's necklace, she could've sworn she heard Renee's voice saying, "I'm so proud of you, Bella." And she smiled as Edward wrapped his arms around her and they shared a kiss.

No matter what happened, they would also have each other—forever.

And they all lived happily ever after

The End!
