{EPILOGUE}
THIRD PERSON POV
Months had passed as currently Edward and Aurora sat in their rental home in Australia watching and cuddling naked on their bed as the sun shone through hitting their skin showing their sparkling undertone.
"I love you so much, Mrs. Cullen" Edward spoke with a soft crooked smile bringing a soft rosy blush to Aurora's cheeks as she hid her face into his bare chest letting out a soft hum.
"I love you too, Mr. Cullen" she giggled as his crooked smile turned into a full-on grin as he placed a soft kiss on her head. To them, their life couldn't get any better as, during just those few months after the birth of their children and the rebirth of Aurora, nothing but happiness came with it.
It all happened when they were lying in bed cuddling as close as they could to one another as both Briar and Arrow were asleep between them and lassoed close into their mother and father. But, as all was silent and content, Edward broke the silence with a small comment accompanied by a soft smile as he deeply stared into Aurora's baby blue yet golden eyes.
"You're beautiful" he blurted yet it was a graceful blurt. A loud yet calming one which was sort of shocking as it sort of just came out yet was so soft and honey-like.
"Stop it" she blushed hiding her face into the pillows as she held Arrow, who was cuddling into her stomach, closely into her body.
"I'm serious, Aurora. Mi amore" he purred as she whined a bit holding Arrow's sleeping calm form closely as she frantically tried to hide the fact she was madly embarrassed.
"You like that hm? Mi amore" he purred again as she squeaked nodding softly making him chuckle softly as he himself held Briar closely into him as he gently rolled onto his back and laid her sleeping body onto his chest making Aurora watch with a smile.
"I'm glad to have you Aurora" Edward started out as she confusingly looked at him not completely or at all expecting it. To her, it seemed as if they weren't even together but instead a guy and a girl who sometimes have sex and have two kids together. Completely normal. Yeah normal. But even though it's 'normal' it was still awkward for her because she felt something more with him but didn't know if he felt the same. She wanted something more but couldn't and she knew that so now, no matter how much she didn't like it, they were friends...with benefits.
"Listen, I know it's been a...confusing few months but I love you and I want to make you mine because I am tired of being apart and not together. I don't want to be just friends or friends with benefits, but I want you to be my wife. Forever. So, Aurora Angel Frost, Mi Amore, my love, my darling, my Auri will you do the honors and make me the happiest man in the world by marrying me?" he smiled happily as tears formed in Aurora's eyes and hid her face into the pillows not wanting to face him.
"Aurora?" he spoke softly as he felt Briar snuggle closely into his chest and when Aurora finally looked up tears were rolling down her face as she nodded softly bringing a happy grin on Edward's face.
"Yes," she smiled through her tears as Edward laughed softly but in a happy tone as he reached over grabbing her hand in his. Both of them now the same temperature.
"I wish I could kiss you right now" he spoke with a smile making her blush as instead Aurora grabbed Arrow and snuggled into Briar and Edward with a happy content smile as he softly placed a kiss on top of her head smiling as he let it linger.
"I love you, Edward Anthony Masen Cullen" she smiled as it brought a happy grin onto his face as it was the first time she's said those words In a long long time.
"As I love you, Aurora Angel Frost" he smiled as they shared a soft passionate kiss with Briar and Arrow cuddled closely into them.
Fast forward a couple more months the day where everyone was looking forward to had arrived. The day Aurora Angel Frost would become Aurora Angel Cullen. Edward's wife. Forever.
But, before anything could happen both were panicking pacing back and forth consumed by the fear one of the couples wouldn't be there at the altar. If anything Edward was more afraid than anything. He felt like he wouldn't be enough since only months earlier they weren't on the greatest of terms. After all, what could stop her from wanting to go back to the hatred they once knew. Or maybe, it was Aurora who was more scared afraid he might realize marrying her is a mistake and leave-taking their kids with him. It was her greatest fear and neither could prevent the situations going on inside their mind as Jasper and Emmett were trying to calm Edward and Alice and Rosalie was trying to calm down Aurora.
"But what if he's not there?! What if he leaves!" Aurora panicked as she was pacing making Alice groan in annoyance as Rosalie was calmly sitting in the corner helping Briar get dressed to be the flower girl so they were in their own little world. If anything they left the stress for Alice to deal with.
"Alice what do I do?!" she screamed panicked as a cup fell off the table and clattered to the floor making her sigh as more things eventually clattered to the floor.
"Look. Calm down. You're out of control and you're moving everything so first calm down because you spilled Briar's apple juice" Alice spoke as suddenly Briar ran away from Rosalie and hugged Aurora's leg with a happy giggle.
"Mommy pretty!" she smiled as she looked about three by now along with Arrow who was with the guys getting ready.
Aurora smiled softly picking up her daughter as a wave of happiness ran over her. She for once was calm as looking at Briar reminded her so much of Edward that she didn't know why. Maybe it was the hair or maybe the eyes but she loved it.
"If I would've known Briar would've made you shut up I would've ripped her from Rose a while ago" Alice muttered under her breath earning a giggle from Briar though she did not really comprehend the meaning as she just cuddled happily into her mom.
"Mommy, where's Awo" Briar whispered as a smile spread throughout Aurora's face as she kissed the top of her daughter's head lovingly.
"With Daddy, baby" she spoke gently as she kissed all over Briar's face making her squirm and giggle as she pulled away running to the door quickly as she went to reach for the door but couldn't since she was much shorter.
"Auntie Alice helpppppp! I wanna see Awo!" Briar whined as Aurora, Alice, and Rosalie couldn't help but smile at the little girl as she reminded them about true happiness.
"Auntie Aliceeee. Auntie Rosalieeee. Mommyyyyy. Help pleaseeeeee" she continued to whine as Aurora smiled and picked her up as she brushed a strand of hair out of her face.
" Let's go see Arrow should we?" she smiled as Briar giggled nodding as Alice quickly stepped in front of them along with Rosalie.
"Nope. It's almost time for you to walk and you don't even have your dress on so too bad. Plus what Arrow looks like is a surprise. For you and Briar so you can't see him till later" Alice grinned as both Briar and Aurora held the same pout on their face making them look like an exact replica of each other it was amazing.
"Now, get dressed. Rosalie has to finish Briar's hair" she continued as Rosalie grabbed Briar away so she could finish her hair.
"Aliceee. But I wanna see my son" Aurora frowned as she only rolled her eyes fixing up her make up which smudged lightly.
"Nope because you also want a peek at Edward and that's a big no" she replied as Aurora huffed out a sigh making Alice grin.
"Now. Get dressed before I make you" she spoke making Aurora laugh softly as she went over to change into her big wedding dress smiling at herself in the mirror finding herself absolutely beautiful.
"Mommy! Look! I look like Sleeping Beauty!" she giggled happily spinning in her baby pink dress making Aurora smile as she picked her up kissing her head softly.
"What do you say you and Rosalie get your basket ready and then you can head out to see daddy?" she spoke with a smile as Briar instantly nodded pulling away from Aurora's grip and grabbed Rosalie's hand to drag her away to get the flower petals leaving Alice and Aurora alone.
Then, suddenly the door opened and Ilsa walked in with her arm locked in with Aurora's dad and Laila walking in with them but alone since Jacob was with the guys.
"You look beautiful!" Ilsa squealed as so did Laila as both engulfed her into a hug making her smile as she loved the warmth they gave since she was now cold from being a vampire.
"Yes yes, beautiful. Blah blah blah. Anyway, we better get going before Edward starts to panic more than he already is" Alice smiled ushering Laila and Ilsa out to the crowd and looked at Aurora and her father.
"Now. Walk her down in five minutes exactly okay?" she spoke as Aurora and her dad chuckled at Alice's control-freak ways of the wedding.
"Reminds me of you and your mum" her dad spoke softly to Aurora making her smile sadly at the thought. How much she really missed her mum.
"And I also know how much she would be proud of you. Her little Auri" he smiled kissing her head as she smiled with tears pricking her eyes.
"Oh no-no-no. No crying. I don't want Edward's sister to kill me" he joked making her laugh as she laid her head onto his shoulder with a sad smile.
"I wish she was here. I miss her so much" she whispered softly as he nodded just as sadly.
"And how much she would've stolen your children" he joked making Aurora laugh once more as she noticed the five minutes was now up.
"Well, that's our cue" her dad spoke once the soft melodic music played filling the air with happiness.
"Are you ready?" he asked as she nodded taking a deep breath that she didn't need as he led her down the aisle to see Briar throwing petals on the ground with a soft giggle as Rosalie helped her with Aurora and her dad following behind as Edward watched with a complete look of happiness covering his face as he watched his daughter and soon to be wife walking down looking exactly alike making him feel so so lucky.
"I love you Dawn" her dad spoke gently as he kissed her head giving Edward her hand as he gently took hers kissing it softly making her giggle as everyone then sat down. Briar on Rosalie's lap as she looked around confused not seeing Arrow.
"Edward, where's Arrow?" she spoke softly with concern as he smiled.
"Don't worry mi amore, it's a surprise" he grinned as she could only roll her eyes at his smugness as the wedding started.
"We are gathered here today..."
As the priest spoke everything seemed to blur out as the only thing that Edward and Aurora seemed to focus on was each other. It seemed as if the world around them melted and nothing else seemed to exist but them. It could be called as a selfish act but for them, nothing could be more perfect than this moment together as for once, out of their entire relationship, besides the twins, of course, nothing else could make them any happier.
"Now, could the ring bearer please come up?" the priest spoke snapping Aurora out of her dream-like state making her turn her head once she heard a swarm of awes and gasps as she saw as Arrow was walking up with Emmett in a bear suit making her smile at how adorable he looked as he walked up smiling happily at both Edward and Aurora as his emerald green eyes looked up at them with complete content.
Gently Edward bent down to grab the rings gently placing a soft kiss onto Arrow's head with a smile. "Good job, buddy" he smiled making Arrow giggle as Emmett led him off and over to Briar who hugged him happily making the crowd smile at them. Everything was just perfect.
"With this ring..." the priest again started as both were again zoned out lost in each other's eyes.
"Do you Edward Cullen take Aurora Frost to be your lawfully wedded wife for as long as you both shall live? Through sickness and health, through richer and poorer?" he asked as Edward smiled happily which caused Aurora to smile too. His smile was just...contageous.
"I do" he smiled as the priest smiled softly at how in love they were.
"And do you Aurora Frost take Edward Cullen to be your lawfully wedded husband for as long as you both shall live? Through sickness and health? Through richer and poorer?"
"I do. I do I do I do" Aurora smiled happily making Edward softly pull her closer wanting the priest to hurry on with it so they would be married as husband and wife.
"By the power invested in me by the state of Washington I now pronounce you as husband and wife. You may now kiss-" he spoke but was cut off as instantly Edward pulled her into his chest pressing his lips onto hers with his hands on her hips and her arms around his neck as they shared a long and passionate kiss knowing this would be their forever.
Moments passed as now Aurora sat with Arrow and Briar on her lap playing with the ends of her hair making her smile happily. Edward was socializing like a normal person but Aurora, she just stayed and played with her kids.
"Mommy, where's daddy?" Briar spoke as she cuddled into her tiredly. It was pretty late as both were tired.
"He's talking to some family, baby" she spoke softly as she placed a kiss onto her head as she looked at Arrow seeing he was already asleep. His small arms around her waist cuddling closely.
"Sweet dreams, Arrow" she smiled kissing his head and looked at Briar who yawned.
"I want daddy" she whined making Aurora giggle as gently she picked them both up and started to roam around looking for Edward.
"Now where could your daddy be? He's a slippery one hmm? Likes to hide" Aurora smiled as Briar giggled softly with a small yawn.
"Are we playing hide and seek?" she smiled as she shook her head gently.
"Nope. Daddy's just very hard to catch" she stated as Briar giggled suddenly.
"Like a fishy!" she exclaimed making Aurora giggle and kiss her head.
"Yeah, baby. Like a fishy. A silly silly fishy" she smiled as she felt a soft kiss on her neck as she let out a sigh in content tilting her head back softly biting her lip.
"I think I found him Bri" she smiled turning her head to see Edward with a bright grin on his face as he lightly pecked her lips and then kissed Briar's head but when he went to kiss Arrow's head he noticed he was fast asleep. He smiled kissing his head anyway as he gently held his small hand.
"Sleep well, Arrow" he smiled as Briar started to whine as she squirmed against Aurora trying to grab onto Edward.
"Daddyyyyy" she whined making him chuckle as he grabbed her placing soft kisses all over her face making her giggle as she cuddled into him instantly falling asleep with her head on his shoulder making him smile with a chuckle on how fast she fell asleep.
"She said she wouldn't go to sleep without you" she smiled as he nodded pecking her lips softly with a slight grin on his face.
"I have a gift for you, mi amore. And then the family has one too" he spoke softly into her ear making her tense up. It was funny how even though they've been together for a while he still made her blush and stammer like she did when they first met as he drove her insane in all the best ways.
"Well, where is it?" she asked softly and shakily as he left his mark on her as with just a simple few words he managed to take her breath away.
"It's outside. Follow me" he smiled as he got up and led her out and away from the wedding as she gently held Arrow in her arms as Edward held Briar just as soft and tender.
Now, with all of them outside and near the lake she looked confused and anxious about why they were by the lake. This lake. This special lake.
"Now, you see Aurora, it's been a tough tough time with the both of us together. A lot has happened both good and bad, but now, as this is our happy magnificent and beautiful day, there is something else that I have that I hope and know will make today just a little bit happier" Edward spoke with a smile on his face as Rosalie, James, Ilsa, and her dad came out with Rosalie taking the twins out of their arms and into hers as confusion ran through Aurora's body as she didn't know what was happening.
"What? What is it? I'm confused" she spoke wondering what was going on as she suddenly felt a pair of moderately warm hands cover her eyes making her jump a bit from shock.
"Jay. That's not funny!" she squeaked out as a soft laugh came from the person who blocked her vision.
"Try again, Roro" a soft deep yet calm voice spoke bringing tears to her eyes as quickly she whipped around not believing what she was seeing. Shock coursed through her body as she shook softly as it was too much for her as she quickly engulfed him into a hug crying softly into his chest gripping tightly not ever wanting to ever let go.
"D-Danny" she sobbed as he smiled kissing her head softly.
"Yeah Roro. It's me. I'm here" he spoke softly rubbing her back as her family around them had happy smiles on their faces.
"H-How" she whimpered softly. "T-They said you died" she cried as he couldn't help but chuckle softly.
"How do you think you're dead but still living? How do you think James is dead but living? It's the same way, Aurora" he spoke gently as she smiled happily knowing what this meant.
"You idiot" she laughed through her tears. "Why didn't you come see me sooner?" she snapped a bit through all her happy, sad, and shocked emotions making her brother only laugh at her complete sense of disorganization.
"Well, I couldn't come home just yet. I had some business to take care of...or well...someone" he smiled as Aurora pulled away wiping her tears confused by what he was talking about.
"What? What do you mean?" she spoke through soft sniffles as she was calming down as suddenly she looked around seeing everyone smiling except her completely confusing her, but also realized Rosalie was missing...and so was Ilsa...
"Edward, where's Rosalie and Ilsa?" she questioned worridly since Rosalie had Tue twins and didn't really like her children being out of sight since last time that happened she lost her daughter.
"Right behind you" Rosalie spoke as when Aurora turned around she saw the twins in Ilsa's arms and Rosalie freely handed with a bright smile on her face. For reasons that we're clear, and Rosalie knew this, Aurora refused to call her by her nickname since it brought so many painful memories she did not want to relive but suddenly she turned away from Aurora and bend down whispering something very very softly though she knew Aurora could hear.
"Go on sweetheart" she whispered gently as the next thing she knew someone quickly held onto her leg weakly as the gesture was followed by soft sobs.
"Mommy d-don't leave me" a voice whimpered as she looked down as tears streamed down her face not being able to comprehend what she was seeing. It was like seeing a ghost as in fact, in a matter of minutes, she was seeing two...two very supposed to be dead ghosts.
"R-Ro" Aurora started but the name couldn't completely come out as she choked on her words as for the first time In a while, it would be the first time saying the name without a story to follow it.
"R-Rosie?!" Aurora choked out as she sobbed with tears quickly streaming down her face as quickly without any more hesitation she picked up Rose pulling her into a tight but gentle hug as her hold on her was firm and protective as she had her face buried into the little girl's shoulder. Both completely and utterly filled with happiness.
"Mommy. Mommy, please. I-" Rose started as Aurora quickly shook her head and kissed her nose brushing a strand of hair from her face as she held her.
"I will never leave you. I never will let you out of my sight okay, baby? Okay? I'll never let you go" Aurora breathed out as she got her daughter back. Her family. Her happiness.
"Thank you. All of you. Thank you for this amazing life and giving me a second chance. And most of all, thank you for being an amazing husband, amazing friend, and amazing soulmate for you went so far beyond. You gave me two beautiful children, you gave me my brother back, my daughter back, and finally, you gave me back my dignity. That I can never repay you for. You have been over the top amazing and I could never have it any other way."
"Amazing hm?" Edward hummed with his face buried into her chest making her giggle with a soft smile. Gently he looked up at her pecking her lips softly as he held her.
"I love you. So much, mi amore. So much" he whispered as she smiled and cuddled into him more.
"As I love you, mio vampiro. So much more" she giggled as he shook his head attacking her with kisses all over as they seemed nothing but happy as their lives perfect.
"Edward" Aurora spoke gently as she pulled away from all his kisses making him pout.
"What is it, Auri?" he asked softly as suddenly she smashed her lips onto his kissing him passionately and deeply as he tightly held her hips and her tightly holding him.
"Will you love me forever?" she whispered pulling away a bit as her forehead rested on his making him smile as he cupped her cheek gently.
"Yes forever, Auri. I will love you forever and longer than forever" he smiled as she smiled too.
"Now stop doubting me and kiss me, gorgeous" he grinned kissing all around her face and neck making her giggle as they cuddled the whole day away.
