EPILOGUE

That was 5 years ago, and I had been right Emmanuel is a handful. He's already got a little girlfriend at preschool. Already a girl crazy little heartbreaker like his dad. So much had changed in that time. Sam and Emily got married 5 months after I had Manny and they had a son of their own a year after; Sam Jr or as we all called him Sammy. Jared and Kim had gotten engaged last year and were finishing plans for their wedding. All the boys except the newbies and Brady had an imprint now. Jake and Ness were doing well she was practically grown already, appearing to be around 15 or 16. Edward was livid because they had kissed, but he got over it because he knew it was bound to happen sooner or later. Everyone was great yet I knew in a few years the Cullen's would be moving, Jake could either go or stay and there was a talk of him maybe staying and Ness being allowed to stay with him. She was a brilliant child wise beyond her years.

Leah was engaged, she had met her imprint three years ago, I was at the hospital and she ran into someone looked up and bam. I was so happy for her, it was good to see her happy, it was like everything with Sam, the pain and all faded in an instant. I also saw her grow even closer to Emily and Sam both afterward; she had a new understanding.

As for Paul and I, we were great. Two years after we had Manny I gave birth to our daughter Alexis Jade Lahote. To say she had daddy wrapped around her finger was an understatement, anything she wanted he gave her. I loved their bond and seeing them together. Any time she cried he was right there; I feared for the kid whoever dated her growing up.

Currently, everyone was at our house. Billy, Sue, and Charlie who were engaged as crazy as it sounds and both our packs and the Cullen's. We were having a huge cookout since it was summer and a bonfire. Which was lit by yours truly since I had elemental powers. Speaking of the powers I had, they were under control; thanks to a lot of help from Carlisle. I think the day I got Bella's shield helped a lot. I basically had an on-off switch now and it made life easier. Although the whole mind-reading thing as a parent came in handy. If someone thought of smarting off or doing something I could easily nix it. I still couldn't believe I had been married to Paul for 5 years now, it still seemed like we had just gotten married. Yet here we were 25 married with two kids and one on the way. Only Paul didn't know that yet, I was planning to surprise him. We were having smores and I had a candybar sat aside for him that had the He and the She colored in on the package. Carlisle told me two days ago I was expecting, even though I had already had a pretty good idea that I was; after two kids you get a good idea. I was so happy with how my life turned out, looking around at my amazing family it seemed like ages ago that all the fighting and dramas had happened. It had taken a while but I was finally past all the things that had happened including the stuff with Brayden. It seemed like a lifetime ago, as much as I hated what had happened I know accepted what I had not only went through but what had come with it. I was amazed by my life every day that I woke up to my amazing family. I knew life would be amazing and I couldn't wait for all the experiences I knew where to come. I came back to earth and out of my thoughts as I felt warm arms wrap around my waist.

"You ok?" I smiled leaning into Paul as he kissed me softly.

"Yeah, was just thinking."

"About what?"

"How amazing life is, and how lucky I am for everyone. Especially you and our adorable children."

"You know, I was thinking that too." I smiled at him as I saw Sam helping Manny put a marshmallow on his stick. I dug in my pocket grabbing the bar for Paul and I handed it to him. I pulled back turning to face him as he looked at it.

"Is this... Are you?" I smiled nodding at him as he scooped me up in his arms kissing me passionately.

"Eww." "Hey, I want daddy." We pulled back smiling and laughing. Alexis was pouting, something she did everything her dad kissed me she was very jealous when it came to her dad. Manny on the other hand thought it was gross yet we had caught him kissing a little girl even though he was five.

"Hey, how do you two feel about being a big brother and sister?" Paul asked bending down.

"I'm already a big brother." Manny said pointing to his sister.

"Are you having a baby mommy?" Alexis asked looking from her dad to me.

"Yes, baby I am."

"Wait, what!?" Everyone around but Carlisle, Edward, and Alice said looking at us.

"Surprise!" I said laughing. "I found out a couple of days ago if everyone looked at the candy bars before you tore them opened they were colored.

"So what are you having this time?" Leah asked hugging me.

"Guess we'll have to see."

"I want both." Paul said making everyone look at him. I smiled as he kissed me again.
