Hello all my lovelies! Remember how I told you that I probably wouldn't update until yesterday? Well I had come down with a mild case of writer's block yesterday morning when I was meant to be writing. But don't you fret, for today this is only the first of two chapters that I will be posting. Exciting, isn't it? Anyway, The sixth chapter from in this story had Jasper's narration, therefore, I saw it right and just to have him narrate once more in the sixth to last chapter. So, his narration is in italics for this particular chapter. Also, Cara has the ability to transfer her thoughts into other people's mind so she and Edward can have silent conversations. This will be important more in the chapters to come but for now I've got her transferred thoughts in bold italics. I'm sure it will all come together smoothly. Also, I wanted to include a chapter about Renesmee's birth but I couldn't think of a chapter's worth of content so instead, after the wedding, it ends off with Nessie's birth because it's quite important. Anyway, keep reading and commenting, makes me rather happy. I hope we can hit the 1000 views by the month's end! Cross your fingers! Cheers!

...

The evening of the wedding was bright with moonlight. It seemed hopeful and warm, unlike the many shady and unwelcoming nights that are generally seen in Forks. Yes, indeed, that night was different. I knew that I could right our wrong and Cara could save Bella from an eternity of damnation. Although, admittedly, about an hour into the reception I thought Cara wasn't going to be here. I thought that my pleas at the bar were not enough for her sympathy and for a moment, I accepted my part in Bella's coming death. However, something seemed to shake me out of that- honestly, a few something's all at once.

First, there was an overwhelming scent of wet dog that wafted over to Alice and I as we stood by the table of hors d'oeuvres. Next, Bella and Edward walked towards the thicker part of the woods, away from our curious ears they stayed there for a moment until Edward came out from the forest alone. Finally, as Edward stepped away from the trees, I saw Cara walk through them and I smiled happily.

"Alice, may I have this dance?" I said to her lovingly, reaching my hand to her. She smiled at me and took my hand. I twirled her into my arms as the music slowed a little and moved slowly with my darling wife. Every so often, I looked over to Cara and Edward. I had no idea that this dance would be their last.

As Cara walked through the trees, she saw Edward talking to the blond woman she saw the last time she saw him.
"Rosalie, would you like a dance?" He asked casually.
"No..." She said coolly and walked away, leaving Edward to look around with his hands in his pockets. Cara smiled and closed her eyes, focusing her power on him.

I'd love to dance.

Edward heard a familiar voice, although it was not spoken. It seemed to be projected in his own mind, as if it was his thought. He looked up and saw Cara. He walked up to her and smiled a little, "Care to dance?" Edward said softly, standing close to her.
"Of course." She breathed and immediately clung to his body. They stepped slowly for a few moments, inching farther and farther from the crowd.
"I suppose you came to tell me not to go through with the wedding." Edward said calmly as he stroked her hair a little.
"At first. But I didn't want to ruin your day." She buried her head in his shoulder, his strength so equally matched by hers.
"I'm sorry." He said slowly, feeling her upper back, "I have treated you so poorly... And you don't deserve that..." He tightened his grip for a moment, "You just don't know how long I have suffered over your loss and the life that was taken from us. And each time I saw you was a reminder of that." Cara felt her eyes water but tried to keep them at bay. She breathed in his scent and held him with the same strength, "Cara, you have no idea how much I love you..."
She let a tear fall and looked up at him, smiling, eyes sparkling behind chocolate brown color contacts. Somewhere in the forest leaves crunched discreetly, although neither of them cared, "Then be with me... We can still live the life we wanted to live. We can be together." Edward smiled at her and held her head close.
"Cara... My Cara, that dream is gone... It was a dream woven by the people we used to be." He kissed her head softly, Cara let a few more tears fall as she felt his lips against her forehead, "But thank you so much for always being my best friend." The song ended and he felt her back warmly, "I'm so sorry I couldn't love you the way I promised, Cara. I hope you can forgive me..." Edward looked at her, watching Cara's brave face, behind which she was dying. She even managed a smile.
"I hope you and Bella have a happy life together." She smiled and straightened out his jacket, "You deserve to be happy." She stood on her toes and kissed his cheek softly, "Thank you for the dance."
As I opened my eyes again, Edward walked towards the forest where Bella was, looking distressed and Cara walked in the opposite direction, head down, I went towards her.
"What's wrong, what happened?" I asked her.
"You are all very nice people and I'm so happy that you pushed me to see Edward again." She sniffles, barely able to keep her composure, "but he loves Bella... And I cannot change that. I'm so sorry I've failed you." She took a breath, "I wish it were different..." Cara unfolded the invitation from the inside of her sleeve and handed it to Jasper, "thank you for inviting me."

...

As Bella screamed and cried out in pain, Edward's only thought only of what he stood to lose. His wife, a fragile, iron-willed human flirted with death by his newborn child. There was blood everywhere but Edward couldn't waste time with craving, he only thought of what he could do to keep them both. Somewhere in a slur of biting and cleaning blood, he took his child in his arms. He gasped as the room seemed to breathe for a moment. The baby was fine, Bella was alive. Maybe everything would be alright. He gasped as he looked upon the child's face.
"It's Renesmee."
"She's beautiful." Bella said with barely any breath in her lungs. Edward handed his daughter over to Bella with care. He watched lovingly as she held their child. Renesmee's thoughts were that of happiness and bliss. He took her away when Renesmee's thoughts turned to thirst. Edward hushed his baby girl and watched in awe as her eyes opened slowly. Edward looked into Renesmee's eyes and gasped.
Renesmee. Cara.
Same cold, olive skin. Same knowing, chocolate-brown eyes. Can such perfection be his?
As he hushed the child in his arms, thinking of his former love, his wife slipped away into the grey area in which her human life ends and immortal life begins.
