Chapter 3: Ending

Of course, the party was absolutely beautiful. I don't think Alice would have it any other way. As I predicted, there was a steal cage match over the thrown guarder. Jared and Embry took the worst of it though. All they needed to do was paint themselves green and they would have looked like the incredible hulk without a shirt on. Also, as predicted, Leah got the bouquet. The funniest part of the wedding was when Jessica (Sam's daughter ) almost caught the bouquet, Sam's face was so shocked it was priceless! Thankfully, no drama came out of this wedding.

Edward was busy having a father daughter dance with Renesmee, so I was standing by a punch bowl waiting for him to be done.

Suddenly, Jacob came bounding towards me with a huge grin on his face. " Hey Bells, or I should say 'mom', do you want to dance with your son-in-law. I want to see you be the world's first vampire that can't dance!"

"Ew! Please don't call me mom! It makes me feel so old, and I'm a vampire, that's not natural! I would rather you call me Bells, or Bella, even Isabella, heck calling me 'hey you' is better than that! Oh, and by the way, I can dance much better than you can on those paws!"

"Wow, I am sooooo offended. You can talk the talk, lets see you walk the walk, hey you!"

"Aw, shut up." I slapped him, but playfully, and we headed to the dance floor. We both underestimated each other. He was much more light on his feet than I would have guessed, considering his size. I was dancing just as I had when Edward taught me. Yes, I admit I was childish enough to ask him how to dance. I remembered nothing of my human years that involved dancing, except at prom. Through weak eyes I can still remember me having to stand on his feet the entire time because of my broken foot. He taught me though, without any reluctance it seemed. Now people actually thought I was graceful.

Just then, the most alluring voice in the world tapped Jake's shoulder and said "May I cut in?" I smiled.

"Just like prom, huh dad?"

"Yeah son." He said jokingly "By the way, your new wife is waiting over their for you." Edward pointed toward Nessie, smiling sheepishly at us. Like a lightning bolt Jake had already left us and was next to our daughter.

"You ever get a feeling that our lives are a little to repetitive?" I asked Edward " It feels like nothing new or exciting happens anymore."

"I think our lives are okay, don't you? Everyday is exciting and worth living for when I am here with you. You are my life, now and forever." Then he pecked me gently on the lips. I couldn't argue with him anymore, he was a very good persuader.

I was still dancing with Edward when he whispered in my ear "There going to leave in a few minutes, we should catch up to them." I nodded, they wouldn't escape before we got our chances to say goodbye.

We were almost at the door when Emmett yelled, "Everybody, it's time to get outside! They're about to leave!" Just like that a flood of people came rushing past us, they were all eager to say their last goodbyes to the newlyweds.

Jake had to borrow some of Edwards money for the trip. Actually, Jake didn't have enough money so Edward gave him enough for the whole trip. They were headed towards the Bahamas. We all had a good laugh when four-year-old Jessica asked if she could hide in one of the suitcases and go too. I'll give Sam this; he and Emily had one cute kid. Not as cute as mine of course, but still.

I felt bad for Nessie and Jake, they couldn't take one step without being greeted by somebody else. Billy and Charlie were sobbing so much as they said their farewells. Billy couldn't believe his little boy was getting married. Charlie couldn't believe his granddaughter was getting married. He even told me how old he felt today. I reassured him with the fact that his child married early and her child had super-fast growth. That comforted him enough to get through the day. Though I could tell now he still felt old.

It seemed to take forever, but finally the couple came toward us to say their goodbyes.

"Mom, Dad, I'm going to miss you guys so much! I promise you I will be home soon!" "Nonsense, go have fun. We'll see you soon. I love you so much Nessie." Edward's voice broke on her name. Now it was my turn. "You are such a fine and beautiful young woman today and I am so proud of you, my little baby is all grown up! I love you and don't you ever forget it!" I quickly pecked her on the cheek. I couldn't say anymore, it seemed I was all choked up.

"Jake, though we have had our differences in the past, I am very proud today to call you my son. I know you would take care of our daughter as much as we can and I thank you for keeping her happy. Congratulations, now and forever you are part of our family!" After Edward finished I couldn't help but smile, he finally accepted Jake the way I always wished he would. Then he and Edward hugged which meant now they were officially family.

"Jacob," I began. He turned toward me. "It feels like yesterday when we were kids hanging out by your garage and now you're my son. Things go by so fast now! I am so happy that you get to be part of our family. You have always been like a brother to me and I know you are perfect for Renesmee. See you really soon." "You bet!"

Just like that they left. Nessie and Jake were now on his motorcycle riding away.

"I'm going to miss them." "Me too, but they'll be back soon." Edward said while he rubbed my arm reassuringly. I was comforted, they would be back and everything would go back to normal tomorrow.

"We've got quite a clean up job ahead of us. Wanna race? I bet I can finish the left side of the room before you finish the right!" "You are so delusional, you're on!"

Trying to beat the fastest vampire I have ever known wasn't exactly the easiest thing to do. I lost. Hey, a girl can hope can't she?

Emmett challenged Edward to a wrestling contest so once again I was left alone. After I was finished cleaning I went for a walk. The air was clean and crisp, and their was a full moon rising high above my head.

I couldn't help but reminisce in all of the good things since the volturi showed up seven years ago. Angela and Ben had gotten married. She looked like a dream on her wedding day, and Ben looked superior even though he had to reach up to kiss the bride. We still keep in touch but Ben got a new job and he travels all around the world. We probably won't ever see each other again. Oh well, I thought. At least they got their happy ending.

Eric is now a famous scientist. He just became a millionaire for discovering the cure for the common cold. I smiled, as I thought of that boy in his teenage years. No one ever thought he would make something of himself until now.

Lauren ended up going to jail for drinking and driving. Tyler got arrested for rape. I guess some people never change their nasty ways.

Jessica is a gymnast now. She gets so close to the Olympics but always loses to the same person.

Mike on the other hand is now a point guard in the N.B.A. He is actually very good. A very strange person to watch on T.V.

My mood suddenly turned very glum as I thought of Renee. She and Phil had died in a car accident last year.

I shook my head, not allowing myself to feel sad on my daughters wedding day. Just then I felt two cold arms wrap around me. I turned and kissed the one and only love of my life, Edward Cullen.

"Did you win the fight?"

"Yep, actually he wants to regain his victory by challenging you again." He rolled his eyes while I laughed. I was the most skilled girl fighter in the family. I always won.

"He wishes." Edward chuckled while kissing me on the cheek.

Just then Edward straightened, like a thought just occurred to him.

"Jake sent us a text and I forgot to show you." I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion, he never texts us. What did he want to send? Edward smiled at me as he handed me his phone.

I couldn't help but smile at what I saw. They were pictures of him and Nessie, like a little slideshow.

The first picture was of them sitting atop of Jake's Ferrari (little Jaky's gonna have fun) drinking cokes. I could see that Nessie was fully happy with eating human food.

Next was a picture of them cliff diving at first beach. I growled while Edward chuckled at the sign Jake was holding. It said you wanna join us Bells? No one was going to let that cliff diving thing go, were they?

After that were a few pictures of them riding motorcycles together. The next were Jake, Nessie, and all of the wolves at the Quileute prom. Seeing the wolves actually put real clothes on was a sight for sore eyes.

Another picture came up of Jake with his arms around Nessie smiling, both of them holding a sign that said "We love you" except Jake put in little tiny parentheses at the bottom (thank you for giving her to me). It was so sweet!

The very last one was of Jake and Nessie kissing. They truly were a perfect couple, well except for one exception.

Edward whispered in my ear "I don't think you will have to worry about Jake anymore. I doubt that he would ever hurt her after these."

"I agree and I can't wait until they come back, I miss them already."

"Neither can I, lets head back to our cottage." I smiled as he led the way. Today is a perfect day, now everyone I love has had their happy ending.
