Hey guys, last chapter of my first fan fic! Thanks so much to everyone who reviewed xxx


A few weeks had past, and I woke up on the morning of Christmas Day, bubbling with excitement even though I was 18. I yawned and stretched, then leaped out of bed. I quickly ran to get my night gown on, it was so cold in the early morning.

I ran downstairs and whipped my head around the corner of the door. The tree was glittering as ever, with a range of different sized parcels lying underneath.

I sat down on the couch beside the television and snacked on a Pop Tart while I waited on Charlie waking up. I flicked the TV on. There was a bunch of Christmas movies on, that didn't really appeal to me. I ended up putting Santa Clause 3 on, because it was almost finished and something better was coming on afterwards. I watched as the jolly red man saved the children from Jack Frost, and I wondered why Jack Frost had never been accepted. I sometimes thought too much into things.

I heard a shuffle from upstairs and I giggled with excitement. I knew it wasn't going to be anything pleasurable, just little things from Charlie. We were going to open our presents have a eary Christmas lunch. I was going to the Cullen's after.

Charlie hobbled down the stairs, yawning loudly, you could tell he was tired.

"Merry Christmas!" I whispered pulling him into a tight embrace.

"Yeah, you too."

He slumped into his favourite chair with a cup of coffee. I picked up a blue parcel with a christmas tree label. "To Bella, from Jake x" It said. I delicately picked at the packaging. It was a small present, I wondered what could be inside it. I gasped at the ornately carved box before my eyes. It was two wolves circling each other on the lid, surrounded by flowers. It looked extremely beautiful and elegant. I opened it up, and beneath the green velvet, was a chain. It was silver plated and hanging off the end was a carved wolf sitting in a howling position like it was staring up at the moon. It matched my bracelet I had recieved from him at graduation.

"Wow," I gasped, shocked at the beautiful gift.

"Huh? Oh, what did you get there?"

"Look, its a necklace that matches the bracelet Jacob gave me!" I handed him over the box carefully, like it was made of precious glass.

"Its beautiful Bella, he said and turned round to the tree again, "now, come and open my present to you."

He pointed to a medium sized box, and I grabbed it greedily. Tearing the paper off, I opened the box. It was an iPod! (a.n I dont own ipods either, apple.) My old one had broken, faulty, so I was ecstatic when I opened up a new one. Now I could listen to my favourite songs on the move.

"So... do you like it?" Charlie interrupted my thoughts.

"Yes, thanks Dad," I said, hugging him.

We opened up the rest of our presents, Charlie got a navy and sea green striped, cashmere sweater from me. A months savings that thing cost! He loved it though. Angela had gotten me a new watch, white leather strap, with a snazzy silver and red face. I would have to thank her later.

As I prepared our early lunch, Charlie sat and watched a recorded football game, quietly enjoying it with his new jeans and sweater on. The turkey and goose fat covered potatoes were in the oven, and was just ready to come out. I quickly popped the vegetables on the hob and boiled them, and stirred the gravy. The chipolatas were cooling down.

After I had done all this we sat and ate our lunch/dinner at the table. There were a few candles, and seasonal decorations on the table top.

We then enjoyed some sticky toffee pudding, no one was a big fan of christmas pudding in our house.

I grabbed my jacket and said goodbye to Charlie who was sitting on the couch and was finishing watching the game.

"Bye Bella, wish the Cullens a Merry Chirstmas from me," He said just as I left.

"Okay!"

I jumped into the truck, and started the cold engine. It took a while, things had frozen over. While I waited for the engine to start I decided to get out some de-icer and scrape the ice off the windows. As I was doing this, a sleek black mercedes arrived at the house. It parked, and Edward got out.

"Don't do that," he said as I scraped the car windows, "your coming with me." He smiled his amazing smile. I turned the engine off and grinned as I strode towards Carlisle's car. I got inside and it was surprisingly warm. We both sat in the car seats. Edward kissed my cheek and I moved my head until he was at my lips. We kissed, my head wobbling through euphoria. We broke off after a while.

"Mmm..." Edward said and I chuckled.

We dorve to the house, Edward babbling away while driving at full speed. I wasn't really listening, more concerned about the road. I knew we would never crash, but one can still worry.

When we got there, Alice leaped out of the house and ran for my at full vampire speed. Scared out of my brain, I yelled. Alice stopped at a halt at my feet and beamed.

"ALICE!" I shouted, "Don't do that!"

She giggled and hugged me. "Merry Christmas to you too Bella!"

"Yeah, yeah. Merry Christmas."

We all walked inside. This cream living room was decorated with tinsel, signs, and other miscellaneous decorations. And of course, the large tree Edward and I decorated was sitting in the middle of the room, presents galore underneath.

I sat on the loveseat closest to the tree, pretty close to Edward. Alice, Carlisle, Esme and Jasper were sitting on the sofa across and Emmett and Rosalie were sitting on a small sofa inbetween us.

They all started opening their presents to each other privately, so I picked up the large present that had Edwards book inside and handed it to him.

"Whats this?" He looked surprised.

"My gift to you."

"Bella, love, you don't need to get me anything. I don't deserve it." He looked ashamed.

"Oh well, its wrapped now," I grinned, "and you do deserve it. Just open it."

He opened up the wrapping gently, and looked at the title that was there before him. I was then pulled into a tight cuddle.

"Thanks Bella, thank you," he said.

"No problem."

He picked up a small silver package, smaller than Jacobs, and handed it too me.

"I hope you havn't spent anything on me. You better not have," I said.

He laughed and eagerly pressed on for me to open it. I pulled at the paper and a little box. I opened the box excitedly and saw a pair of the most beautiful earrings anyone could imagine. It was two studs, silver love hearts, encrusted with diamonds, fake I hope. As I gazed in wonder at my gift I hadn't realised Edward had popped away and came back. In his hands were a big bunch of flowers - freesias. I smelled the most wonderful smell, sweet but musky. He handed them to me with a anxious smile; waiting to see my reaction.

I leaped into his arms, whispering thanks yous into his ear.

"Its beautiful," I murmered.

"I love you Bella."

"I love you too," I said, before yawning and then I fell asleep in his arms.
