Disclaimer: I do not own these characters they belong to Stephenie Meyer.

It has been over two years since my make up with Edward over his absence. Everything returned to normal, except of course my love for black, which I don't believe will every go away. Edward accepted my clothing and told me that my pale skin glowed because of the contrasting colors although he did make me stop wearing so much eye liner.

Things have changed here in Forks since I was last here. We will only be staying for a little while then it's time to head off to college. I like seeing all the green here, especially after spending a year in Alaska.

Everything around me seems more focused and now I have to make sure to head Edward's advice and only go into the sunlight when no one is around. This whole vampire stuff is pretty easy and it's even better with Edward around all the time.

My parents are really proud of me, even though Charlie wasn't all that thrilled about me marrying straight out of high school. According to Edward, he thinks that we will end up like him and Renee, but he doesn't understand just how much we have already worked to make this work or just how much we love each other.

Edward is less cautious now, although it did take him a little while to realize I'm not as breakable as I used to be. I absolutely love my family, because that's what we all are, one big happy family. Sappy right?

I'm looking forward to spending the rest of eternity with Edward, without the threat of the Volturi, James or Victoria. I do miss Jacob though, he refuses to talk to me now that he knows what I have become.

Honestly, though, I wouldn't change it for the world.

Sincerely,

Isabella Marie Swan Cullen
