It had been six months since Michael and his small coven moved to Forks.

They had settled into their new home quickly with the help of the Cullens and the wolves.

Jacob's pack came over every other day, and it was refreshing. Michael and Seth had made up shortly after his return when they both apologized and talked through it.

It came as a surprise to everyone, though, when Seth had imprinted on Raphael. Seth seemed to follow her around wherever she went, and Raphael was in love with the attention and devotion he gave her.

She was still like a little kid at heart, and she got along well with Seth's childlike innocence.

Diana and Leah had hit it off from the very get-go. After a few months, Diana had decided to get an apartment with the native girl.

Raphael spent the majority of her time at Seth and Sue's, so Michael was left alone in the house with Alice and Jasper on a regular basis.

Michael, though a bit alarmed to admit it, knew that they would all be good for each other in the long run.

For the first time in decades, Michael found himself truly happy. He was surrounded by his partners, his friends, and his family. He couldn't be any happier.

He was officially dating Alice and Jasper. They had been for five months now, and he loved every second of it. He had never thought he would have wanted anyone other than Jasper, but Alice had wrapped her tiny little finger around his heartstrings just as much as the southern blond had.

They had gone on many dates throughout the months, and they made a habit of dedicating every Saturday to a date night.

At one point, Jasper and Michael had even taken Alice to what remained of their hometown in Texas.

They had stayed for a week, often taking walks through the neighborhood as they retold old memories; good and bad.

They had even visited the cemetery; once. They had come across it by accident, and they had stayed to briefly visit. The sorrow had been too much after seeing the graves of their family, and they quickly left. For the rest of the week, they avoided that part of the town.

He was now sitting in their shared room, propped up by the pillows as they binge-watched the Harry Potter movies.

Alice was curled into his side, her head resting against his shoulder as his arm was draped around her. Jasper was lying between his legs, his body leaning back into the brunet's as his head rested against his abdomen. Michael was absent-mindedly running his hand through Jazz's blond hair, his body relaxing at the soft purrs Jasper released.

He was comfortable, and he felt loved.

Deep down in his heart, he felt relieved to finally admit that this was where he belonged.
