Hiya everyone. This chapter is when Edward meets Anthony and another surprise. This will be the second last chapter so this story can finally come to an end.
On with the story
BPOV
It was a cloudy day as Edward and I walked through the graveyard. I held a bouquet of flowers and Edward held an unidentified object in his hand. Today is my last day in Forks, while the rest of the family stage my death, Edward and I would play our last respects to my unborn son.
When we reached the grave I kneeled to the ground placing the flowers in front of his tombstone.
"Anthony, honey, it's your mommy here. I know I haven't been here in a while but a lot of things have happened since I last spoke to you. Your father is no longer with me; instead I brought with me a very special friend of mine to meet you. His name is Edward and he has been looking forward to meet you for awhile."
I stood up to give Edward some room. He kneeled in front of the grave, placed the object against the tombstone that I now could see was a voice recorder and pressed play. Almost immediately I could recognise the sound coming from the recorder; it was my song, the song that Edward made for me. As tears fall from my eyes, Edward softly speaks.
"Hey Anthony, my name is Edward and the music you're hearing is something I made for your mother. I can't tell you how sorry I am for not being there when both you and your mother needed me the most. But I can promise you this; no more harm will come to your mother ever again. I will spend the rest of my existence showing your mother just how much she means to me. How much I love her. This song is now for you as well and from now on, every time I'll play this song, we'll both think of you. Rest easy Anthony, your mother is now safe and happy."
He turns to look up at me before rising from the grave to embrace me in a comforting hug. He steps out of the embrace only to leave one of his arms wrapped around my waist. I rest my head on his shoulder as my tears still fall down my face.
"Edward's right honey, thanks to him and his family, I am finally happy and far away from your father. I only hope that you can forgive your father for what he has done and forget Edward's family for how they put a stop to him."
Edward steps forward once more and kneels in front of Anthony's grave. He speaks so lowly to him that I couldn't make anything out. Once he stands back he walks back over to me and quiet randomly suggests we go to our meadow. I agreed of course but it still left me puzzled and wondering what it was that Edward said to my son.
We step into the meadow and it looks exacted how it was last time we came here. Edward leads me to the centre of the meadow and suddenly gets down on one knee. Oh no, he wouldn't.
"I know I haven't been back long and you just recently come to trust me again, but this time I just can't wait. Isabella Marie Swan, would you do me the honour of spending the rest of eternity with me as my wife?"
By this time I was in tears. I knew he would want an answer but my lips just couldn't form words. Unable to get the words out I nodded my answer. Understanding my answer, Edward swooped me up into his arms with a triumphant yell and swung me around with me giggling the entire time.
As he places me on the ground, I see a goofy grin that seems stuck permanently to his face. I couldn't help but keep my own grin on my face. Then I thought of something that gave me the chills.
"What is it?"
"Alice would want to plan the wedding. I can just picture the torture that I'm about to face. Too much shopping."
Edward throws his head back and laughs in surprised amusement. He then assures me that he would protect me from his big, bad sister but I wouldn't hold my breath.
This going to be a long engagement.
There you have it.
The second last chapter is up. Sorry it's short.
