Epilogue to the Twilight Series

As we walk along the shore listening to the whistling of the wind and watching the beautiful, warm sunset sinking below sea level, I begin to reminisce of old memories. These memories bring a realization that I have a wonderful adventure ahead of me, and that I get to spend it with people I love and care about.

Charlie is still on my mind though. Knowing that I may never get to see him again breaks my heart, but I’m sure the Cullen’s have a plan to allow for that to happen. The biggest problem that we would encounter was the color of my eyes. The more animal blood a vampire intakes, the more normal color their eyes turn, so that problem is solved. As for Renesmee’s remarkable growth in the span of a week may be a tad strange, so we may need to avoid visiting Charlie for a bit.

As Edward and I stride over to Jacob and Renesmee hand in hand, I realize that I have to accept the fact that Jacob imprinted on Renesmee. It’s has been tough, but I’m getting used to it. Knowing that she will be loved and cared about is all that matters, and I trust that Jacob won’t do anything to hurt her. Jacob knows how badly it hurts to have your heart broken, so I know he would never jeopardize his chance with Renesmee. Even though vampires and werewolves are sworn enemies, this pack is copacetic.

“Jacob,” I say continuing to walk towards him, “I’m sorry about how I acted when I found out you had imprinted on Renesmee.”

“It’s alright Bella, I understand how you would have been upset, just know that I will never do anything to hurt Renesmee,” Jacob answers.

“It’s been hard, but I have convinced myself to be okay with it, because I know no matter what I want, it will always have to be this way,” I express.

“That’s great Bella, and now I finally realize why we never worked out, it truly was meant to be,” he replies.

“We’ll leave you two alone,” Edward says looking at me smiling.

As I stare into his eyes I begin to realize that Edward truly is the best thing I could have ever asked for. I’m glad I get to spend forever with him. He’s so loving and loyal and it’s great to know he will go to the ends of the earth to protect me. With him by my side, these past four years, were great, because without him, I know for a fact that I would not be here right now. In the years to come I know he will be a great person be forever with.

As the sun sets even lower and the sky begins to darken my thoughts begin to lessen and I just live in the moment.
