Felt the joy and the fear
Finding myself making every possible mistake."

Re-Edited Ending Chapter to Eclipse
He touched my face; his eyes — too dark, it had been so long since he'd left me — searched my expression minutely.
"Let's get out of here," he suddenly suggested. "Let's go to our meadow."
It sounded very appealing. "I guess I don't have to hide out anymore, do I?"
"No. The danger is behind in my house."
He was quiet, thoughtful, as he ran. The wind blew on my face, warmer now that the storm had really passed. The clouds covered the sky, the way they usually did.
The meadow was a peaceful, happy place today. Patches of summer daisies interrupted the grass with splashes of white and yellow. I lay back, ignoring the slight dampness of the ground, and looked for pictures in the clouds. They were too even, too smooth. No pictures, just a soft, gray blanket.
"Edward, is it going to be okay with me, with Bree?" I ask hesitantly. "Especially in that house."
Edward lay next to me and held my hand.
"My family can subdue her, I'll return when you're settled." He murmured staring me in the eyes. "You're top priority, and we're not going to talk about her right now, it's all about you. No more talk of her today, promise me that."
"I promise." I murmured reluctantly, I wanted to pursue the subject, but I'm sure Alice would tell me all about her.
"August thirteenth?" he asked casually after a few minutes of comfortable silence.
"That gives me a month till my birthday. I didn't want to cut it too close."
...
"It's a good thing you're bulletproof." I sighed. "I'm going to need that ring. It's time to tell Charlie."
He laughed at the expression on my face. "Highly dangerous," he agreed. He laughed again and then reached into the pocket of his jeans. "But as least there's no need for a side trip, and when the time is right, I'll bring you over to meet Bree."
"That's more dangerous." I mumbled, he looked stoic.
"Not as long as you're with me."
It made me smile and finally, he once again slid my ring into place on the third finger of my left hand.
Where it would stay — conceivably for the rest of eternity.

After Bella was settled in at home, peacefully safe with her Charlie, Edward returned to his house. He knew it was better that he was there, he wished he could've been there when the wolves first arrived but his love needed him. God, Bella was so tempting, but he knew that even if he was aching for her, whatever she wanted from him she could have. If she wanted to do things right, he would completely respect that. Just as he was approaching a few miles to his house, warning bells were ringing in his head, the thoughts around the house were nothing short of chaotic. He sped faster until he reached his house to see the wolves, cleanly dressed he noted, were standing in front, with tense shoulders. Seth was standing in front of the pack, Rosalie in front of the Cullens, Bree tucked behind Rose, curiously glaring at Seth.
Through the myriad of thoughts, Four thoughts stuck out the most to Edward.
"What's the kid doing?" Paul.
"How did I miss this? Oh my gosh, I just hope that Rose doesn't do something stupid!" Alice.
"She's my imprint! Look at her, she's perfect. How could she be more perfect? Her hair, her eyes, her clothes, she's so small, I could carry her with one arm! Does she eat enough? Wait-do vampires eat? Oh god, was she starving before she was a vampire? Sam, doesn't know anything! I have to tell him! He-He can't take me away now!" Seth.
"Did he-, no, he's going to take her away! He's imprinted!" It was angry and it was all Rose. "Attack now!.
"Rose no!" The bronze haired vampire exclaimed to no avail. For, in a flash, Seth had been shoved through the wolves and his back hit a tree. Mid air of his plight he had phased instinctively and rose on all fours despite the pain as his gaze shifted from the anger at Rose, to helpless longing at Bree, and then confused on Edward.
"Edward! What the hell just happened?" Before he could answer, there was a loud shout of surprise.
"Seth!" Paul shouted, surprised before he snapped his head at Rose who's hands were still out turned, she narrowed her eyes and hissed with a sneer on her face before jumping high into the air and kicking herself off of Jared's shoulder to land in front of Seth. As Paul began shaking, Sam had shoved him through the railing and back behind the house before there was a crack and the railing was broken and there was another tell-tale shred of clothing rising in the air. Finally a growl signified to the Cullens that Paul had phased and Bree had been gently shoved behind Emmett and Jasper protectively.
"Where do you get off, huh? Imprinting on a newborn who doesn't know better? Huh, mutt?" The blonde taunted before letting out a shout of frustration and grabbed the wolf by the neck, effectively tossing him through the trees. Seth let out a whimper before Rose was knocked off her feet by Paul pummeling her back, she grunted and gasped.
"Rose!" Emmett called out before faster than he'd been, he was standing in front of Paul and in front of a sprawled out Rose.
"Paul calm down! I don't know what's going on with Rose or if she's right about Seth impri-," before he could finish Rose used one arm, and griping Emmett's neck as roughly as she could, she cast him into the trees, several splintering under the large vampire.
"Rose what're you doing?" Emmett exclaimed surprised several meters away as he rubbed his head, his brows furrowed. "Baby, you know I don't like it this rough."
"Not the right time, Em," Jasper growled, Carlisle had taken Emmett's place in front of Bree, who looked quite confused. Alice stood on the other side of Bree, her eyes searching out any information on the future she could as she stared at the circling vampire and wolf.
"You stay out of this Paul! This is between Seth and I," Rose snarled out at the wolf, effectively ignoring her husband's tease and question.
"Edward what the hell is going on?" Sam asked his body shaking, to prevent more inevitable cloth ripping, Edward placed a cold hand on his shoulder as Jared and Embry staring at Sam awaiting orders.
"Seth's imprinted on Bree," he muttered, rubbing his jaw tiredly, "Rose thinks he's going to take Bree back to the Rez and far away from her, and Paul believes that Rose has gone nuts." Letting out a curse the bronze haired mind reader sighed.
"Jared, it's best if you go get the two clothes, Embry go check on Seth, Sam get Paul under control," he commanded, then he tturned towards his remaining family who were also awaiting directions.
"Edward what's going on?" Bree asked, her eyes wide as she pointed to herself, nerves flying off of her in waves, Jasper noted. "Did I-Did I do this?" She stammered out, gulping, eyes wide with fear and shame.
"Bree, it's going to be okay, this is definitely not your fault," Esme murmured putting a hand on the younger vampire's shoulders shoulders. The response was a look confliction between running out to help her first friend in the Cullen family and disappearing completely.
"Bree, calm down, we're going to settle this, promise," Alice crooned before stepping towards Edward a serious look in her eyes. Bree shook her head, her brows beginning to furrow.
"I'll get Emmett, Jazz will get Rose." She planned out, Edward nodded at the idea. There was a scream and Edward's eyes were back to where Rose was holding her shoulder, her arm torn clean off, Bree's scream ricocheted and then the moment the wolves looked to where she was supposed to be she was gone. Completely vanished, and it shocked the hell out of them.
"Shit where'd she go?" Jared asked confused, his focus on his orders gone.
"It's her own special power." Alice mumbled in reassurance before speeding off towards Emmett. Jasper nodded to Edward before starting off to Rose, who was kneeling and holding her arm all the while gnarling in anger at Paul.
"Jared, just go!" Sam snapped at him before running to the other side of the building, Embry following suit on the opposite side of the house. Jared nodded, shaken out of his reverie, before running off to the truck they arrived in.
Seconds later large wolves emerged before they split off, Sam had Paul on the floor growling and hissing and Embry was sprinting off to an injured Seth.
"I found Bree," Jasper called out, there the girl was standing next to a kneeling Rose, her arm in her hand with this sorrowful look on her face.
"I'm sorry," the brunette whispered to the blonde whose rage faltered into resent for creating such concern.
"It's not your fault, Bree, don't stress over it, kay?" She replied sourly before wincing.
"I'm going to help you," she murmured before placing the arm next to the dislocated shoulder place, "it'll sting a bit," she added in warning. It was at that moment, Jasper stepped forward putting a hand out and onto Bree's shoulder.
"That won't be necessary." He informed her, but Bree only shook her head before mending Rose's wound with her venom. Rose was seething, her hand clenched tight as the pain seeped in before it eased out and she felt her arm and hand again. She grinned down at Bree.
"Better?" Bree asked, ease and caml filling her Rose nodded before Jasper was down on one knee placing Rose's arm around his shoulder as Bree did the same. Emmett was back, slipping his dirtied white shirt off, grumbling before nodding to where Paul and Sam where phased, Paul's muzzle in the dirt, Sam's large wolf paw holding him down.
"Paul understands what's going on now, so do Embry and Sam," Edward looked over to where Embry was with a limping Seth.
"How?" Bree asked, as Alice took her place under Rose's arm.
"It's a pack-thing they can communicate through their brains when they phase," Alice explained as Bree stood by Edward. "Let's go inside and talk about this over your dinner."
"Bree even helped make dinner," Esme added knowingly as she led Rose inside beside Jasper. Only Edward and the pack would understand why Seth's ears perked up and his limp looked lessened. Sam and Embry wolf disappeared to their separate sides of the house before coming out in their same clothing as before, Seth and Paul awkwardly standing at attention waiting for clothes from Jared. Meanwhile, Bree hesitantly took a step forward, Paul stepping backwards as Seth approached just as hesitantly even as Rose over her shoulder.
"Hi Seth, I'm Bree." She greeted softly, he let out a small whimper before lowering his head to the dirt before her. Esme and Carlisle watching interestedly, Sam with crossed arms but cautious eyes.
"You're-you-you're not going to hurt me?" She asked shyly placing a hand on his pelt. He shook his head gently, staring up at her with penetrating eyes that made her feel safe. As everyone started slowly leaving the two alone, save for Edward.
Only Edward could've heard the sweet thoughts and they made a small smile form on his face. Well, Paul did too, but he chose to block out the sickening sweetness from Seth.
I-I don't think there is anything more than I can do than to except this can I? He smells like home, and he's nothing more than really big dog.
Never. I could never hurt her. Oh god, she's so sweet! Too sweet! I really don't deserve an imprint this sweet. So pretty, how could anyone be so beautiful?
It wasn't more than ten minutes that Jared returned with two pairs of clothing.
"So what the hell going on?" He asked before receiving an elbow from Paul.
"After dinner," Sam said as he nodded to suggest going in inside. Jared shrugged, rubbing his ribs following Paul. Only Seth remained as Bree continued to stroke his fur, he whimpered, gently licking Bree's hand, she giggled, and he maneuvered himself out from under her hand before he picked up the clothes tossed at him in his mouth. As he gave her one last glance as he disappeared into the trees. Bree paused, unsure of whether to wait or go on.
"Bree, go on inside." Edward said placing a hand on her shoulder. She looked over to where Seth had disappeared before nodding slightly. Just as they entered the house, Edward paused before placing a hand in between Bree's shoulder blades to urge her forward and she did so as he stood, waiting in the doorway for Seth, who was a very flustered wolf.
"Um can I-I-I uh ask you a question?" Seth asked Edward hesitantly, Edward smiled.
"Of course, Seth." The mind reader already knew the question, but allowed the boy to ask anyway.
"Do-Do-Uh-Do you think I have a shot, Edward?" He asked quietly as Edward placed Seth under his arm to help steady his injured ankle. "With Bree? I mean she-she's great, she didn't faint, or cry or scream, and she even pet me! Do you think that means something?" The hopeful innocence in the boy's eyes made Edward grin briefly before sighing and answering.
"It'll be really hard, Rose is very protective in the little girl that had no mother that she's found in Bree, Emmett will do anything to keep Rose happy and if Bree makes her happy it makes him too," he paused, before smiling slightly at the tanned wolf, "but then again, what were the odds of me and Bella?" Seth grinned, his face wide as he beamed.
"I would do anything to make Bree happy like Emmett would for Rose." He promised, Edward smiled softly as they entered the house.
Off they went to possibly the most awkward dinner ever.
