The Flower and Major

Epilogue

It's been about fifty or so years since Bella and I became vampires. We had moved from Forks and we're currently in England. The vampire world was much better, no one feared the Volturi only respected it. The only ones that had trouble with it were Jane and Alec. Rosalie had ended up taking them in and treating them like they were her babies. Paul and Jacob had stopped phasing so Bella and I could change them. I was currently sketching while Bella was reading. Everyone else did their own thing. Rosie was playing a duet on the piano with Renny which was beautiful. My head snapped up hearing my phone ringing. I grabbed it off the table seeing it was Leah's number. 

"Hey, Leah." I smiled. "How are you?"

"I have some news to tell you." She says. "It's bad."

"What is it?" I asked standing from the table.

"Charlie died, Lily." Leah whispered.

The phone dropped from my hand clattering on the floor as I fell to my knees letting out a pained scream. Jasper rushed to my side with a worried look on his face.

"What happened, Lily?" Bella asked coming over.

I looked at Edward who had a pained look on gis face reading my thoughts.

"Bella, Love." Edward says. "Charlie, died."

Bella fell to the floor sobbing and screaming as Edward held her in his arms. Jasper pulled me into his arms whispering sweet nothing's into my ear.

I stood with Bella, Jasper, Renesmee, Edward, Rosie, Paul, and Jacob as we watched our father get put into the ground. On his shared tombstone read; Sue Swan born August ninteen-sixty four, died January twenty third twenty thirty one. Leah walked over hugging my side. She stopped phasing after the battle along with Seth. They married and had children. It was odd seeing Leah so old.

I sighed giving Jasper a kiss before I walked into the backyard of the house Dad once lived in. Bella stood out by the forest looking down at the obituary of Dad. I walked over to her placing a hand on her shoulder gently squeezing it.

"He's in a better place, Bells." I whispered. "We didn't expect him to live forever."

"I know, flower." She whimpered. "But it still hurts, it feels like just yesterday we were telling him we were moving in."

I pulled Bella into a tight embrace as she dry sobbed into my shoulder. I rubbed her back venom tears stinging my eyes.

"Mom, Aunt Lily." Renny called out. "Dad and Uncle Jasper sent us to get you."

We pulled away smiling at each other as we walked to the front yard with our daughters to join our husbands in the front yard.

"We're twins forever." I say to Bella.

"Yeah." Bella laughed. "And we'll always protect each other no matter what."
