She could feel Edward running then. She tried to lift her hand but she couldn't. She whispered, "Die . . . in your . . . arms."
He let out a sigh and said, "Are you kidding? I have a fiancee who rams werewolves with trucks and carries grenades in her pocket, that kind of girl I want with me forever. You're not going to die, we will fix you. Don't worry!" Amelia could hear the whir of helicopter propellers and then Edward knelt down on the ground. "Marry me?" he stuck a ring on her finger.
Her head fell back and she pulled him to her, "Forever." she whispered. Edward chuckled and lifted her into the helicopter and they left back home.
Chapter 6: Farewell
It had been seventy-one years since Amelia had been to a funeral in La Push, but this was one she wouldn't have missed for the world.
She had come to say goodbye to an old friend.
It was strange being back there. The memories hit her hard and she closed her eyes and let them come flooding back into her mind. The laughter, his beautiful smile.
Amelia walked into the chapel and scanned quickly for anyone who would recognize her. It was a trained reaction, but an unnecessary one. It was just as her research had said, he was the last one. The oldest, and most respected of all the tribal leaders. He had died peacefully in his sleep, and now everyone for miles around were coming to honor him and pay their respects.
She saw his wife standing by the casket. Amelia could see that she was once very beautiful. She was crying. There were two large grown men on each side of her lovingly supporting her and holding her hands. It was easy to see they were her sons. It took her breath away to see how much they looked like their father.
Amelia walked up and looked into the casket. Her shoulders sagged and she took a deep breath when she saw him. He was old. The lines were etched deep in his face, and his hair had grayed. But he also had that same playfulness around his mouth. He was still handsome. His chest still looked powerful.
A sob grew in her chest. She reached out and touched his hand, she was surprised when his hand wasn't warm like it had always been. Of course, it wouldn't be. It was now cold, as cold as hers.
Oh, Jacob, she thought. How I have loved and missed you. She squeezed his hand harder. There was a very long line behind her and she knew she should move along, but she couldn't tear herself away, not yet. He had saved her in so many ways. He was so good. So brave. She touched his face and whispered, "Love you."
Amelia made her way to her seat, she would probably be the only person in the room not crying today, if they could see inside her, they would know how deeply that man's life had affected her. That no matter how many years went by, she would never let herself forget him.
The service was beautiful. His children spoke of his wisdom as a father, and his love and devotion as a husband. Many spoke of his greatness as a leader. He had settled numerous disputes and brought peace to many with his ability to handle a problem with humor and love.
One of his grandsons spoke of how Grandpa Jake would take him on camping trips and that late at night around the fire, he would tell him stories of the legends about werewolves and vampires. The grandson's favorite story was about a werewolf and a vampire who both loved the same girl. He would make his Grandpa Jake tell him that story over and over.
His family was beautiful. He had been very happy. He had been surrounded in love and had given back love in return. Amelia was so grateful for that and she knew that Bella would have been too.
She was making her way out of the chapel, when a middle-aged woman approached her. She was Jacob's eldest daughter. She grabbed Amelia's arm and tears filled her eyes as she stared at her. She gave back a smile, thinking she was just thanking everyone for coming, but that wasn't it.
"He told me you'd come," she said.
Amelia blinked away the surprise and began to tell her she must have her confused with someone else.
"No," she shook her head slowly. "I know it is you. I recognized you from his description as soon as you walked in the door."
She stared at her, not sure of what she should say.
She grabbed her hand and said, "Thank you for coming Amy, he and I were very close, he told me all about you. It was our little secret. He loved you very much. As he did Bella as well."
She swallowed hard. "I loved him too, very much" Amelia said. "So did Bella."
She hugged her. It was a little shocking. Amelia had not been hugged by a human for a very, very, long time.
"Thank you again for coming," She said into her shoulder. She squeezed her tighter, her eyes were tear-filled as she pulled back to look at her one more time, then she walked away.
She drove to Forks and stopped in front of her house thinking about Charlie and Renee. She had done her best to keep in touch with them. Weekly phone calls and letters. They had been gone for a long time now.
She sat there in her car staring at the front door. The driveway. Her bedroom window.
She drove to the Seattle airport and boarded the private jet that would take her to Edward. She landed in a small airport in New York.
As she settled down for the 6 hour flight, she thought back to that fateful night that Sam took her from Edward. The hard to quench passion between Edward and her, the horrible things she had said to him. Now, all these years later, it still hurt to remember Edward's face when she recited those words.
Alice had seen everything, but not until Sam found me her in the church. Sam did not expect her to come right to him, but as soon as she did, the events were set in stone.
Alice and Jasper were in a very remote place. She tried to contact Edward immediately, but could not get through. The entire family had searched for him for seven months. They had looked for Amelia as well. They went to Tucson and followed leads. They traveled to many desolate places that Alice kept seeing in her mind, but they could never find her.
They did finally find them, but in very different ways. Alice left the letter in the meadow, hoping Edward would return there at some point. And he did.
Alice found Amelia that same night. It was the night she told Jake she couldn't be with him. When she had walked outside and looked up at the stars, the stars became Alice's compass. Using a constellation map, they finally had something to go on. The next night, using a helicopter, they traveled back and forth until Edward finally heard a voice that was thinking of Amelia. He heard Jake.
Alice is always proud of the fact that with her mind she found both of them on the same day.
Edward and Amelia were married within a week and are madly in love. Those little problems that they used to have with his control before with Amy as a human and the same with Bella . . .well, let's just say, that was no longer a problem.
Not once, has she ever regretted what she now was. She has a beautiful family with the Cullens. They are very close, even though Edward and Amelia do live apart from them from time to time. She is beyond happiness.
Amelia will still look at her lovely angel, and sometimes the love she has for him completely overtakes her. She will, just as she promised herself, spend the rest of the world's days loving him. She takes care of him and respects and loves him. He cherishes her and she feels completely loved in return. He is her miracle and sje will never let him go.
The plane was landing. It was gliding to a stop over hard concrete. Amelia pulled open the door and breathed in the smoggy air. They wanted to live in a place where they could keep in touch with others easily. An isolated island would have been nice but they chose a more conservative setting for their standards.
Edward was standing in the airport with his arms wide open, beckoning to Amelia. He wore a long rain jacket, jeans, and a her favorite green shirt. Amelia sprinted to him at a human pace and hugged him tightly.
"Lets go home," he whispered in her ear and they left together, hands linked.
At first, Amelia thought that he just meant the apartment. But he ended up driving to a private airport and pulling their luggage out of the back of the car.
"What are we doing?" Amelia asked, genuinely confused.
"Going home. . ." was all he said with a smirk plastered on his face.
She looked at him with narrowed eyes. They got on the plane and set off to their home.
A few hours later they arrived to a secluded place that Edward would not let her see. He grabbed a blindfold and covered her eyes with it and whispered, "Do you trust me?"
"Exceptionally," she replied with a smile. Never know what to expect!
