Epilogue
-Narrator's Point of View-

(6 months later)
"You need to just try and relax, everything's going to be fine." Bella tried to reassure Emmaline.
"But, w-what if it's too plain and boring?"
"Uh, excuse me, but Alice Denali does not do anything plain or boring." Alice stated.
"What if Jasper wanted a big wedding, I should've gone with a big wedding, y'all had big weddings right?" Emmaline rambled, "it's traditional, it's what everyone expects and I messed it up."
"Well Alice and I love opulence so you can see why we went for a bigger wedding." Rosalie said.
"And there are a lot of family members on Jacobs side, plus all of our friends that stood with us to face the Volturi had to be invited as well, otherwise I would've gone for a smaller wedding." Renesme admitted.
"Carlisle and I had a small wedding, it was just Carlisle Edward and I." Esme smiled as she remembered the day perfectly, "I wouldn't have done it any other way."
"I didn't want to get married in the first place, well I shouldn't say that, I mean the thought of marriage sort of scared me seeing as my parents were divorced, so I was never one of those little girls who dreams about her wedding." Bella confessed, "I even suggested a drive thru wedding chapel."
At that Emmaline laughed.
"This wedding will not be boring and plain." Alice said, "you wanted southern romance so I promise that I have given you southern romance."
Emmaline smiled and then she finally agreed to pull on her dress.
The dress was a custom made gown that hugged every curve of my body and had a sweetheart neckline, but Emmaline's favorite part was the lace overlay, the lace was vintage but in pristine condition. It made the naturally sexy dress look delicate, and for her something blue she chose to a pale blue ribbon tied around her waist and into a perfect bow in the back.
"It's time to go." Esme said as she put the veil down and her maid of honor, Renesme, handed her, her bouquet.
It was a beautiful mix of southern magnolias and cream peonies.
"You ladies look great." Emmet said as he walked into the the room, he walked over to Rosalie and placed a kiss onto her cheek before she, Bella, Esme and Alice left.
Since Emmaline felt the closest to Emmett she asked him to walk her down the aisle. Jasper and Emmaline also decided on having only one guy and one girl in their wedding party so they each choice their best friends, Emmaline chose Renesme who looked beautiful in an all tulle empire gown of the same color as Emmaline's sash. Jasper had of course chosen Peter.
They stepped out of the old house that they had rented for the wedding and they made their way to the barn that Emmaline had fallen in love with in the first place, the inspiration behind their wedding theme.
The music started and Renesme began to walk down the aisle toward her uncle and his friend. Jasper smiled at his niece as she took her place and then the music changed, everyone in the barn stood up from their seats and Emmett escorted Emmaline down the aisle.
The Cullens and the Denali's watched on happily as as Emmaline made her way toward Jasper.
Even with the veil clouding her vision a tad, she could still see how handsome Jasper looked standing up at the end of the aisle next to Peter who wore a matching tuxedo.
When they reached the end of the aisle Emmaline handed her bouquet off to Renesme and Emmett delicately lifted the veil from Emmaline's face before he placed her hand into Jasper's, he clapped Jasper's back before he took his seat with Rosalie.
"You may be seated." Edward said as he was the officiant.
The two exchanged traditional vows and looked into each other's eyes lovingly as they silently let their love shine through.
"Then it is my honor to now pronounce you husband and wife, Jasper, you may kiss your bride."
Jasper stepped in, closing the gap and leaned down to press his eager lips to new wife's beautiful full lips.
Everyone clapped and Edward introduced them.
"For the first time ever, Mr and Mrs Jasper Whitlock."
It was his name, fully and truly his name and he decided that he wanted his wife to have it as well.
And even though Jasper and Alice were married she was never Whitlock, she was also never Hale either. She never shared a family name with Jasper and that is perfectly alright.
The seats had been moved away to clear the floor for an impromptu dance floor, the music started and it was a slow romantic song, Jasper and Emmaline danced together for their first dance.
"Mrs Jasper Whitlock" Emmaline said. "Emmaline Whitlock."
"I do quite like the sound of that." He smiled and kissed her nose.
"I think I can get use to it." She teased.
He twirled her and when she came back he dipped her just as the song was ending. "I think I can get use to this." He responded.
"And what would that be?"
"Getting to hold you on my arms and kiss you whenever I want to." He said as he kissed her passionately.
But the claps surrounding them pulled them apart.
Soon they were separated by all the Well Wishers and Congratulators, but Emmaline got away and went over to the band to request a song.
She walked up to Jasper and she held her hand out to him, he looked at her and then the music started.
"Can you foxtrot?" She asked him with a smile.
He simply smiled and removed his jacket before undoing his cuffs and rolling up his sleeves to his elbows.
The two danced happily, smiling and laughing, and not seeing anyone else but each other.

A big thank you for reading my story, it has gotten so much amazing feed back and I truly can't express how happy I am that so many of you like it. Unfortunately this is the end. I do NOT plan on writing a sequel because I feel that Jasper and Emmaline's story is over.
And before you ask, here's some answers to questions I know I didn't right out answer In the story.
-Yes, Emmaline has been using her vacation vouchers from her birthday present.
-After school finished the Cullens moved yet again, to another dark and unsuspecting place where the Whitlock's joined them.
-Emmaline sends her dad a postcard from various places every now and again, and as the years progressed she even sent him photos along with the postcards so that he could see she is doing well, obviously the photos had been touched up to make she and Jasper appear older.
-And as for Emmaline's mom, well her boyfriend was always a vampire, he fell in love with her (just like Edward and Bella AND Jasper and Emmaline) and she chose to give up her life to be with him. Despite being a selfish mother she still missed her only child and that's why she agreed to visit Emmaline back in Texas for Christmas. Upon Emmaline's entrance into the house all she saw was someone to drink because her vision was clouded by blood lust. It wasn't until Jasper ran in that she had a moment of clarity and realized what she had just done. When Emmett and Edward found her she told them everything, and agreed to willingly stay away from Emmaline so she wouldn't cause her anymore harm.
-Emmaline has never once tasted human blood.
-Marta died from having all of the blood drained from her body which in turned caused her heart to stop beating. No she did not turn into a vampire. Emmett and Edward took her body to the woods were an animal more than likely finished her off. A search was held but nothing was found. Many believed that when Emmaline "ran away," Marta quit and returned to California where she had originally come from. She did not have any children or a significant other.
-Upon marrying Alavaro, Alice took her birth and of Mary, so her name is now Mary Denali
-Mary (Alice) and Alvaro are doing stupendously, and although they live with the Denali clan Alvaro has learned to embrace the Cullens as "in-laws" and he remains on his "vegetarian diet."
