Epilogue – Three years later

"I can't believe you're making me go?" Bella says with a pout.

I chuckle smacking her on her fine ass.

"It's only the weekend, love, get packed. We need to drop off the dogs with Rose and the kids with Angela."

Christopher is three and we also have a one-year-old daughter, Lilly Anna, named from our mothers' middle names. Rose and Emmett are married with a two-year-old boy, Peter. They are Christopher's Godparents. Alice is heavily pregnant with her and Jasper's first child, and is due any day now. They are Lilly's Godparents. Lastly, Angela and Garrett have just moved in together and said they would watch the kids for us, so we can attend Bella's ten-year high school reunion.

Bella pouts the whole way to Forks. I know she's not looking forward to seeing some of the people, mainly Jacob again, but I didn't think she should miss out on this.

We arrive at the hotel, the same one we stayed at when we were here for the wedding. Strangely, we're even given the same room.

We both get washed up and dressed before heading to the school. When we arrive, we spend some time looking around the school and I get to see some pictures of Bella from when she attended.

"You were very pretty. If I went to school with you, I would've asked you out and followed you around like a lost puppy," I tell her.

She chuckles shaking her head at me. We walk into the hall, hand and hand. Bella picks up her name tag and crosses out the name Isabella Swan and puts Bella Cullen under it. She grabs my name tag and puts Edward, Bella's man, on it and places it on me with a grin.

"I love when you get possessive of me," I say kissing her again.

"I think we should have another baby," I tell her. I kiss her as we walk into the hall.

"Really?"

I nod as I keep kissing her.

"Bella?" says a male's voice that I vaguely remember hearing before.

I let her go and we face the person who just spoke.

"Seth," she says with a smile and hugs him.

"Not that I'm not pleased to see you, but why are you here?"

He chuckles. "I'm actually here with Leah," he says with a frown.

"What?" Bella asks a little confused.

"To make a long story short, it turns out it wasn't Leah who wasn't eating, it was Jacob controlling what she ate. When she fell pregnant, she almost lost it because she wasn't eating right, which finally scared her and made her start to eat more. Jacob wasn't happy and we saw how abusive he was to her. I'm so sorry, Bella. I know he must have been like that to you." Seth shakes his head and closes his eyes momentarily. "Anyway, when she didn't lose the weight right away, he left her."

"What? How old is the baby?"

"She just turned six months, she's a little cutie-pie," Seth says clearly smitten by his niece.

"Hi," a small female voice comes from behind us.

Bella and I turn and I think my face drops as I look at Leah, who clearly is at least fifty pounds heavier than she was at the wedding.

"Hi, Leah," Bella says softly.

"Look, I'm sorry. I was a bitch to you. Jacob was always on my back about every little thing I put in my mouth, even more so after you left. I was angry that you left and left me to take the full heat from him. I'm so sorry," Leah says again clearly ashamed about how she acted.

"I was jealous, too, because I knew he really liked you."

Bella shakes her head at her.

"No, if he liked me even a little, he would've taken me the way I was."

Leah shrugs her shoulders. "He has a new thin girl now. You know I hate that he left me, and that he cheated on me when I was pregnant. But I'm even more hurt that he doesn't come and see his daughter. He actually said she's getting fat; how can a little baby be fat?"

Leah shows us a picture of her daughter and I wouldn't have said the baby was fat.

"Sorry to unload all this on you, I think I'm just pissed that he brought her with him," Leah says nodding and we see Jacob with a younger girl on his arm.

"Wait, isn't that Emily? She's what – seventeen?" Bella says in surprise.

"She turned eighteen last month," Leah says sadly.

"Well, looky here, it's the two beached whales."

I glare at Jacob as he grins at Bella and Leah.

"Thank you, that's very nice of you to say that," Bella says with a smile.

"What… that was an insult, you're so fucking stupid."

"No, it couldn't have been an insult. Whales are very loving friendly mammals. I find them to be amazingly beautiful, too, so thank you."

Jacob just shakes his head.

"Oh, I see you still got your fuck buddy."

"Actually, he's my husband," Bella say waving her hand, "and the father of my two children."

Jacob frowns looking at Bella and he seems a little put out that Bella's not acting the way he wants her to.

"Still working at that crappy job?"

Bella takes a deep breath as she looks at Jacob.

"I'm happy, happier than I've ever been. Sure, I'm still overweight, but I'm happy at this weight and size, because it's right for me."

Jacob chuckles.

"Don't start your mouth, Jacob Black. You shut the hell up and listen for once in your life," Bella says before he can talk.

"I still go to the gym three times a week. I work, run after my two young kids, and my private time with Edward keeps me healthy. Just because I have more meat on my bones, doesn't mean that I'm unhealthy. I can do anything, and most certainly I could run rings around her," Bella says pointing to Emily.

"Yes, I still work at the bar and grill and I still enjoy it. It may not be everyone's dream job, but it's what I want. As I have said, I have two great kids and we're hoping for more. I married a great man who makes sure that each day he tells me I look good and he loves me, even when his work life is being shitty. I have six great friends who are more like family to me, and I know that my dad and mom would be proud of me if they were alive today.

"So I really don't give a rat's ass what you think of me or anything that comes out that mouth of yours. Because I have people I love, that love me and I didn't need to change anything about me to make that happen. You can't hurt me anymore, Jacob Black, in order to hurt me, I'd have to give two shits about what you thought. Oh, on a side note, grow the fuck up and be a father to you daughter.

She stops and turns to face Emily.

"And you, you are eighteen and fucking around with a married man! Not only that, but a married man that also dumped his kid. Wake up, that's like a blindingly obvious clue that flashes LOSER in neon colors. He will do the same to you, in case you haven't figured it out already. I think it'll be best for you to go home and grow up. You shouldn't be here on his arm acting like what you both are doing is okay. Clearly, your parents need to have a talk with you.

"Leah, let's go and get a table," Bella says taking the stunned Leah's hand and walking away from Jacob as everyone in the hall claps and cheers.

I keep my eyes on Jacob who looks pissed and storms out of the hall leaving a shaken Emily behind.

"Seth, we'll keep an eye on Leah, you should take Emily home."

Seth smiles and nods at me.

"Dude, your wife has brass balls," Seth says in a hushed voice before leaving with Emily.

The rest of the night goes by well. Leah stays close to Bella and me. It's clear she's sorry for how she behaved, but I also doubt if she and Bella will become friends. Bella and I leave a little early and end up playing cards in the hotel again. As I win each game, I get articles of Bella's clothing from her. We finally fall into bed and make love all night long. You know, practice makes perfect and we're going for baby number three.

In the morning we head to the cemetery and place some pictures at her parents' grave. After spending a little time there making sure it's all nice, we head home. Home to our family and where our great friend Alice is in labor.

I know Bella would say I changed her life, but she changed mine, too. I know I'll love her forever and she's worth everything to me. I'm so grateful that she gave me a family and made me truly complete.

A/N: Well this is the end for them. We had people ask if we have more things coming. We do. We have This Thing Of Ours, otherwise known as the facebook story that will start posting soon. We have a story called Just Give Me a Reason coming up, kind of a different edge for us, a very damaged Edward learning to cope with his own guilt and living in the shadow of blame from people for the death of his parents, meets a Bella who has only ever had just a handful of friends who all seem to use her - will Edward be just another person to hurt her or will he be her saving grace? Then we are writing a one-shot to go with a banner made in a contest called It Started with a Proposal, not sure when that will be released, but we will post it when we can. We wrote a one shot for the Fandom against Domestic violence and that is called Baker's Man it will post to our account in June (I believe is the release date) but you can find it now, by donating to the wonderful cause. Check them out on Facebook to learn more. Thanks everyone for joining us in this journey. Thanks MooAh for giving us enough creative freedom to give the people you wanted a different kind of story. Thank you to all our readers, without you and your comments, we'd never know if anyone enjoyed what we do. Nikky and Kasi~
