Chapter 20 – Happily Ever After
~Epilogue~
(Edward's P.O.V.)
It has been ten years since my daughters first birthday. Belle is now 11, and loving it. She knows must of the family's secrets, but we haven't told her the whole thing yet. My lovely, beautiful wife and I have been keeping busy.
We still live with the whole family but not in Forks, Washington. We moved five years ago. We now live across the street from the Denali Clan. We had to move because when my daughter was six, she started telling her friends that our whole family was monsters. That's when we decided we needed to relocate for a while. Carlisle was working at Denali hospital. Esme was fixing up the house as she always does. Emmett was a gym teacher at the high school. Rosalie had started her own mechanic shop. Jasper was the elementary school's counselor. Alice had become the world's clothing designer. The only way to get them was to order them online. Bella was a part time kindergarten teacher. As for myself I worked part time at the hospital with Carlisle.
I was interrupted from my thoughts when I heard a knock at Bella's and my room.
"Daddy?" my beautiful daughter asked with a big smile.
"What sweetheart?" I glowed with happiness as my daughter looked up at me with those bright, loving, adoring eyes.
"Mommy says to ask you if we can go to the park? Also auntie Alice wants to know when she can take me shopping?" she asked, as she sat down on Bella's and my bed.
"We can go to the park right now. Tell mommy to meet us in the living room. As for Auntie Alice tell her not until your 13." I smiled with all the love in the world. This is my wonderful creation and she had me wrapped around her little finger along with the rest of the family.
"Thanks Daddy. I love you" she jumped with excitement, as she ran over to me and gave me a big hug.
"Your welcome. I love you too sweetie" It is times like these, that made me thankful that Bella and I adopted our little girl.
I joined my beautiful wife and daughter in the living room a little bit later. We got in the car, and I drove us to the nearest park.
When we arrived my two beautiful ladies ran to the park without me. It was the cutest thing I have ever seen.
Our favorite game was don't touch the ground tag. Since I was the father I was always it. I didn't mind though. I liked watching my two lovely ladies laugh and tell each other how Daddy couldn't catch them.
No matter what people say, I would always remember this because this was my happily ever after. It will always be the best thing I ever did with my life. These two were my life forever and for always.
