Romeo and... Cullen?

Ending (Vision Comes True)

When they reached the airport, Jacob phased back.

"Are you okay?" he looked at Verne's bleeding shoulder.

"I'm good, let's go."

Alice had multiple tickets. The first was for Brazil. Verne, Jacob, and Renesmee spent a few days with the Ticuna tribe of Brazil, learning about a half human half vampire named Nahuel. Renesmee would fully mature at seven, never ageing past her teens. The ageing would slow down immensely and allow her to be enrolled in middle and high school normally. But until she looked those ages it was best to homeschool. And like Verne, she survived on food and blood.

Verne stepped away from eating with the tribe when her phone rang.

"Jasper? Jasper what happened? What the hell happened to all of you."

"V. Come home. We're safe now."

Verne was in a slump for days after their return. The Volturi might have been ended by their family but not without sacrifice. Carlisle, Edward, Bella, Rosalie, Seth, Leah, and Jared. All gone. Something no one never saw coming. Verne broke out of her depression by the end of the second week. It wasn't fair that Jacob had to pack and take care of Renesmee all by himself, especially when she knew he was grieving too. It wasn't a full recovery but it was enough that Verne could help out.

"Say goodbye to grandma, Nessie." She stood on the front porch as Renesmee gave Esme a hug goodbye.

"Are you sure you don't want to come with us, mom?"

"We're going to join the Denali's. We'll be down soon to visit. Don't worry about us dear."

Esme gave her daughter a small smile. Losing Carlisle was hard for Verne, she couldn't imagine the pain Esme must be going through. Verne was glad the rest of the family stuck together. They finished saying goodbye to the family and the pack before Verne, Jake, and Renesmee left for the airport.

Verne walked outside where Jacob was finishing up the renovations to the front porch. She held her stomach while bringing him a glass of lemonade. The pregnancy started normal, but very quickly after, Verne had become like Bella. The vampire portion kicking in and driving the pregnancy and baby into hyper drive. Verne had to drive to different hospitals and pregnancy clinics around Maine in order to keep the secret as she got ultrasounds. The twins were perfectly healthy.

"Billy can come now that the place has been done up," Verne said as she handed him the glass.

"Got the wheelchair ramps up quicker than I thought. Perfect timing, we can get the old man here just in time to see his grandsons born."

"Thank you, Mom," Renesmee said as Verne handed her the cup of grapes.

Only recently had she changed from calling Verne and Jake, Mama V and Papa J, to just mom and dad. Verne understood the joy Esme felt the first time Verne called her mom. She handed the cups out to her other three kids as well. Edward-Jared was sitting on the floor so Renesmee could braid his hair before school. Just like Nahuel said, the aging slowed down enough for them to enroll her in sixth grade.

Like Renesmee, Edward-Jared and Lee, aged slightly faster. But by the time they hit the age mark for fourth grade, their aging had slowed as well. Their other child after the twins, Carli Rose, aged even slower, only looking five years old. Verne and Jacob suspected the werewolf gene took over more and more with each kid. If they were to have another they'd probably age like a normal human, like Jacob did before he phased.

"When's breakfast?" EJ asked.

"Ask your father, honey."

"We're gonna be late. Dad likes to take too long with his meals."

"Maybe if you storm the kitchen, he'll finish quicker. Come on, Rosie, let's get dressed for today."

Verne picked up the little girl and went upstairs to go put on clothes for work. When she made her way into the kitchen, Jacob scooped Carli from her arms. He was already in his mechanic uniform for work. Verne had suggested making uniforms and enjoyed designing the little logos for the business.

"You sent the wolves on me. Wouldn't stop talking my ear off till breakfast was done." Jacob gave Verne a kiss.

"Ew Dad, cool it with the PDA."

They laughed as they watched Renesmee hit the back of Lee's head, not once lifting her head from her stack of pancakes. Verne finished making sure all the kids had their uniforms on straight while Jacob started the car to drop them off at school.

"Don't forget. We're picking up the family tomorrow from the airport."

"Mom can I go with Aria to a concert this weekend?"

"Are her parents going, Ness?"

"Yeah."

"I don't see why not. Jake?" Verne asked her husband as he adjusted the rearview mirror.

"Knock yourself out kiddo."

"Mom, can we get a dog? Like grandpa's."

"I don't know, EJ. We'll think about it."

Verne and Jacob had left Koda with Billy so he wouldn't be too lonely. He wanted to stay in La Push after everything that happened, Sue and Charlie really needed him.

After Jacob and the kids pulled off, Verne packed a bag of Carli's snacks and headed to her clothing store. Homecoming season was rolling around and she was up to her knees in custom dresses and alterations. Verne put Jasper on FaceTime as she started adding beadwork to the neckline of a client's dress.

"Jas! How's everyone?"

"They're good. We're with the pack now, actually. Everyone's excited for tomorrow. How are the kids?"

"Everyone's developing human-like," she laughed. "They can't wait to see you too. Is mom there?"

Jasper turned the phone so Verne could see Esme and Emily in the kitchen cooking. They both waved to her. Verne spent the better half of the day talking to her family and working on dresses. Jacob strolled in, carrying a bag.

"Switched lunches. Imagine my shock when I opened up the tumbler and found blood instead of iced coffee."

Verne pulled out the bag she had brought and handed it to Jake.

"Do you have any customers right now?"

"Nope, do you? Back at the garage?"

"I've got John on an oil change, nothing else right now."

"So picnic in my office?"

She pulled out Carli's snacks so she could eat too as Verne and Jacob sat on the floor of her office eating lunch.

"The kids want a dog..." he trailed off.

"Are we gonna get them one?"

"Maybe a different pet?"

The two laughed. Verne rested her head on Jacob's shoulder. He looked down at her.

"I love you."

"Forever?"

"Forever."

Jacob kissed Verne, smiling as he did. Their life wasn't perfect but they had their forever and that was good enough for Verne.
