Ok, so I do not own twilight, or any of the characters. So, Im so so so so so so so sorry that i havent updated in, well forever. I apologize. But I've done some thinking and decided that this will be the last chapter. The last one ended so perfectly, and it jus sounds so much like the end. So this will just be a filler chapter of different things, like their life after college, family, all that good stuff. So, I hope you like it, and please review. Thanks guys. =)

I curled the last part of my hair, as Alice came back in with my outfit. She smiled at me in approval. I smiled back and sighed.
"I can't believe we're finally graduating. It seems like yesterday when I first came here. Oh, how far we've come." I laughed at the end, and Alice rolled her eyes.
"Sit, I have to do your make-up now. You're going to look so pretty when I'm done." Alice smiled and started looking through her huge make-up bag. I never really understood her need to have so much make-up, but oh well. Alice will be Alice. I sat down in the salon-like chair in her bathroom and relaxed. 4 years of this, and you kind of get used to it and stop complaining. Of course, I would never tell Alice this, but I sort of liked it when she dressed me up. It made me feel prettier. I soon felt the soft brush touch my face, and I knew she was putting the foundation on. While she did this, I drifted off to my own little place. It consisted of Edward, Me, and the beautiful meadow he had taken me to our junior year. He had the place set up with candles and string lights hanging from the trees, and a little picnic. It was beautiful. He said it was to celebrate our 2 year anniversary. It was like a dream.
After the little picnic, he turned on this radio he had brought, and we danced until we were tired. It was the most romantic thing ever. I'll never forget that night. My day dream was interrupted when Alice started to poke me in the forehead with a brush.
"Bella, wake up silly. I need to put your eye liner on." She chuckled, and I rolled my eyes. I opened my eyes wide so she could put the black liner on. It took only a few minutes, then she told me to close my eyes so she could put the eye shadow on. I think she said something about going for a smoky look. She moved the brush along my eyelids, and when she was done, I opened my eyes and smiled. She grinned back and pulled out the mascara. I sighed and looked up while she applied that to. Soon she was done, and put everything back in her bag, except for a pretty tube of shiny pink lip gloss. She handed it to me.
"This, is yours. I bought it just for you." She smiled at me and reached around to grab my outfit. It was a pretty black cocktail dress, with a little black bow that tied around the waist. It sparkled, and had little ruffle things coming out of the bottom, and went about to my knees. It was adoroble, and I absolutely loved it. Alice thought it would be perfect because the boys were taking us out to eat before the ceremony. She handed it to me and left the room so i could put it on. When it was on, I spun around, watching the material twist. I looked amazing in this dress, and I knew Edward would agree.
I came out of the bathroom into Alice's room, and she was already ready. She was wearing an adoroble knee lenght strapless in midnight blue. It was decorated with pretty sequins that sparkled when the light touched them, and a pretty dark blue bow around the waist. I absolutely adored it. When she saw me she smiled and threw my shoes at me.
"Here. The boys and Rose will be here any minute. So strap those on and hurry." She walked out of the room to wait for everyone. Rose was gone helping out with the decorations for the ceremony. While I was putting my last shoe on, I saw Rose run into the room, grab the bag with her dress in it, and run into the bathroom. I giggled, and walked out to the living room. I looked around and saw Edward leaning against the counter, waiting for me. When he saw me, his smile widened and he hurried over to me. I smiled and turned for him.
"Love, you look far more than amazing. Absolutely stunning." He complimented me and bent down to kiss me sweetly. I returned the kiss and gave him a hug. He grabbed my hand and kissed it as well.
"Come here, there's something I need to tell you." He said and pulled me to my room. I looked back at Alice, but she just gave me a thumbs out. I rolled my eyes, and shut my bedroom door when Edward and me were in there. He pulled me over to the bed and sat me down on it. He kissed me one more time, then looked me in the eyes.
"Bella, these past years with you have been the greatest, and I wouldn't trade the memories for anything in the world. I'm so glad that I met you that night in your dorm, because if I didn't, I don't know where I would be now. Your my life, my love, my everything. You mean more to me than anyone in the world, and I'm thankful you chose me. I never want to lose you ever again. I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Thats when he got down on one knee and grabbed my hand. I covered my mouth with my other hand, as my eyes started to water.
"So, Isabella Marie Swan, will you please marry me?" He asked gently. He pulled a velvet box out of his pocket and opened it up to reveal the most beautiful ring I've ever seen. It was a beautiful diamond, surrounded by other tiny ones. It wasn't to big or to small, just right. I stared at the ring, then back at Edward, as the tears fell down my face. I nodded my head and whispered yes. He smiled so widely and slipped the ring onto my ring finger. I threw my arms around him and started to kiss him anywhere I could.
"I love you, forever and ever." He told me and I just kissed him more. Forever and ever sounded perfect.

Edward led me into the house, and finally took off the blind fold he insisted that I wear. I opened my eyes, and looked around at the beautiful interior of the house. It was amazing. There was a set of windows starting at the ceiling going all the way to the floor, where you could see the backyard, which had a huge pool, with crystal clear water. I looked into the spacious living room, and then the beautiful kitchen, decorated with marble counters, a huge fridge, a dishwasher, oven, everything. But the best was upstairs. The master bedroom was amazing. It was huge, with windows that gave you a beautiful veiw of the backyard and community. The bathroom was state of the art, with a tub that could fit atleast 5 people. I walked over to the windows, and stared down at the backyard.
Edward came and wrapped his arms around my now showing tummy, and started to rub it soothingly. He rested his head on my shoulder, and gently kissed my neck.
"I thought it would be a perfect place for the kids to grow up. You know, with a bunch of room to run around and play. And a great place for family get togethers, things like that. The community is wonderful. Everyone is so nice, and my work is just down the road, so if you'd ever need me, I'm only a few minutes away. So what do you think?" He asked. I turned around in his arms and put my hands on both sides of his face.
"It's perfect. Just like you." He chuckled and pecked me on the lips. "Now we just have to go furniture shopping and get everyting moved in. Thats the fun part." He rolled his eyes, and touched his forehead to mine.
"I love you." He said, and kissed me again.
"I love you too. Forever and ever."

I pulled into the driveway of our home, and turned the car off. I looked up at the house and into the window of the kitchen to see Bella starting dinner, and Connor at the table doing his homework. I smiled and wondered how I got so lucky to have such a wonderful family. Bella looked up and out the window, and saw me sitting in the car. She smiled and waved for me to come in. I grabbed my stuff, and headed for the front door. I closed the door behind me, and put everything down on the small table by the door. I kicked off my shoes, while mentally counting down until Alana came running down the stairs to greet me.
3,2,1...
"Daddy!!" She jumped off the last stair and hurled herself at me. I grabbed her and swung her around. The small 8 year old giggled madly, her emerald green eyes gleaming. Her wavy brown hair covered her face. Finally I stopped and kissed her on her forehead. She smiled and kissed me on the nose.
"How was your day sweetheart?" I asked her and put her on my back and walked to the kitchen. She giggled some more.
"Great! Me and mom made brownies and painted. It was so much fun." She told me, talking so fast, I could barely understands her. I chuckled and set her down once we reached our destination. She ran over to Connor to see what he was doing. I walked over to my beautiful wife and wrapped my arms around her and kissed her check.
"Hello love. And how was your day?" I asked her. She leaned back into me and smiled.
"Great. But we would've had more fun if you were here." She said and turned around to kiss me. I held her for a minute before letting her get back to cooking dinner. I walked over to Connor, and sat down next to him. He looked up and smiled. His brown eyes were alive, just like his mothers, and his bronze hair was tousled, just like mine.
"And what about your day at school?" I asked and leaned back in my chair. He shrugged his shoulders and did the same.
"Boring, as always. I had a test in English, but I know I got an A. Oh, and Miranda Wuthers asked me out." He smiled sheepishly, and I chuckled. I knew he's had a crush on that girl since 6th grade.
"And did you say yes?" I asked. He gave me a look questioning whether I was crazy or not. I laughed and got up. I patted him on the shoulder. "Good for you son." I knew he probably rolled his eyes at me. Bella looked back at me and gave me her breathtaking smile and wink. I smiled back and mouthed "I love you". Then I went to go get ready for dinner. I really did have an amazing family.

I set out the rest of the silverware and plates on the table, making sure everything was perfect. The oven timer went off, telling me that the turkey was done. I grabbed my oven mitts and opened the oven and got the turkey out. Perfect, I thought. I looked at everything else that was cooking on the stove, making sure nothing was burning.
"Edward! Come cut up the turkey! Everyone will be here soon." I yelled up the stairs. I rolled my eyes and walked back to the kitchen and moved everything off the stove. Edward appeared in the kitchen a second later and pecked me on the lips. Thanksgiving was so stressful. After I put the last dish on the table, the door bell rang. I took off my apron and hung it up, and smoothed my cream colored sundress. I walked to the door, and opened it. First, there was Alice and Rose, all dressed up. Alice smiled and gave me a hug. Then Rose pecked me on the cheek, and walked in after Alice. Then came Emmett and Jasper, who seemed to be holding the dishes the girls made.
"Happy thanksgiving you guys. You can just put them on the table in the kitchen." I told them and they smiled at me.
"Happy thanksgiving to you to Bells." Emmett told me. They walked in and headed towards the kitchen. I shut the door, and headed towards the living room where the girls were, but 5 seconds after walking away, the bell rang again. I smiled, knowing who it would be. I went back and opened it up. All the kids stood out there, dressed up in beautiful outfits. There was Connor and Miranda, Alana and her boyfriend Chris, who gave me kisses on the cheek. Then there was Alice and Jasper's daughter Lily with her Fiance, Mark. And lastly, there was Emmett and Rose's boy, Nick, and his wife, Maddie. They all wished me a happy thanksgiving, smiling and holding the dishes they brought. I told them to put everything in the kitchen and enjoy themselves.
Soon, we were all gathered around the kitchen table, eating and the adults sharing stories from college. This was the one thing I loved about the holidays. Having everyone here to enjoy it with, laughing and talking. I looked over at my wonderful husband, and suddenly so thankful I had taken that chance so many years ago at the fall dance back in college. He looked over and met my gaze, and smiled his wonderful crooked grin, grabbed my hand and kissed it gently. I smiled and sighed. He leaned over and whispered in my ear,
"I love you, forever and ever." and kissed my cheek. Yes, this is the perfect forever,
The End...
