After Dawn 8:
*Disclaimer is on the 1st chapter. Enjoy!
Charlotte's POV
The Cullens, wolves, Gavin and I couldn't be happier. Now, everyone's threats were completely gone. The Volturi, was now forever gone, and Gavin and I were able to survive. When we got back home, Gavin took me to our cottage and gently laid me on our bed, as he crawled over me, to hover over me, and he looked into my eyes.
I felt something wet on my cheek. Another venomous tear on my cheek, "Gavin, are you alright?" I asked. He shook his head.
"What's wrong? We survived, you should be happy." He smirked along with a very quiet chuckle.
"That is true," He sobbed. "But, I am crying because I am happy to see your face, when... when I almost lost you. But the thing I can't understand, is... how could you try to leave me, let me watch you die?" He sobbed again. I sighed sadly, and touched the palm of my hand to his cheek, rubbing my thumb back and forth over his venom tear soaked cheekbone.
"I am so sorry Gavin, I didn't think. I felt I was doing the right thing by sacrificing myself to save all of you, but now, I see I was wrong." I began to cry myself. "I will never do that again, I am so sorry. I love you so much, I'm sorry." I sobbed as I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him down towards me, hugging him as close to me as possible. We hugged each other close, and never let go, sobbing as we held each other close.
Soon, our loving embrace turned into a kiss of love. Gavin lifted his head from the nape of my neck and looked at me, our venomous tears still flowing. "Please, Charlotte, promise me one thing, you will never do something like that again." I sighed and smiled at him.
"I promise, I will never, never do that again. I love you, I will never leave you." With that Gavin's lips came crashing down on mine. Our lips overlapped, His top and bottom lip had my bottom lip captured between them. His breath tasted like I remembered, but the taste was enhanced. His breath tasted of Warm Cinnamon and Lavender. Our eyes were closed, as our hands explored each others body's. Thank god we didn't need to breathe anymore, cause we kissed throughout the night, kissing each other on the lips or neck.
We spent the night, doing nothing but being in each others arm's. Happy to be alive, and to embrace each other again. There was no greater happiness.
Luckily for us everything went back to how it was before, peaceful and none of us had to fear a thing. Everyone was at peace, Edward and Bella spent as much time with their daughter Renesmee as they could, well when Jacob wasn't trying to hog all of Renesmee's time. It was quite hilarious seeing Edward and Bella getting frustrated at Jacob to taking all of their time away from their daughter.
As for Gavin and I, we were blessed. Our life was perfect, we had a great life, better than we could ever have had. Over and over again, we thanked the Cullens, but now they would always say this, "You are now family. No reason to thank us, family is always there for one another." And how right they were.
