Six Months Later …
“Here are the keys, Mr. and Mrs. Cullen,” said the closing agent with a grin. “Congratulations and I hope you enjoy your new home.”
“Thank you,” Bella said, threading her fingers with mine. I kissed her temple, eager to take her to our new home in the Gold Coast and christen every flat surface. “Shall we go home, Mr. Cullen?”
“I think we should, Mrs. Cullen,” I grinned.
We left the closing office, driving to the house we’d found that was going to be our forever. It was larger than Bella anticipated, but she loved the mix of modern and traditional. It was also near Katie’s school and my parents’ home, as well. Katie was with my parents while Bella and I were dealing with finalizing the purchase of our new home.
Our old home was being sold to David and Shaw. They hated their apartment, jumping at the chance to have something permanent. So, boxes filled the brownstone as we packed up our lives, preparing for our new beginning.
“Grinch, the car usually works better when you turn it on,” Bella teased.
“Sorry, angel,” I laughed, starting my Tesla. “Just thinking about the last few months.”
“It’s been pretty intense,” Bella smiled as I backed out of the parking spot. “But, in a good way.”
“I’m still shocked that Rose and Emmett came back married from their Bahaman vacation,” I breathed.
“I think it’s perfectly them,” Bella shrugged. “They’re happy.”
“They are,” I grinned. “I’m glad that they worked things out.”
“Everything worked out, in the end,” Bella said. “For everyone.”
In addition Emmett and Rose getting married, there had been a number of changes at MAC. Bella had been promoted to a team leader by Rose and her human resources team, taking David as her senior executive. She hated leaving Alice’s team, but she was too talented to not have her own team. Alice was also bummed to lose Bella and David, but had two rock stars who had interned at the company. Jasper was her senior executive and the two new hires took over as a graphic designer and junior executive.
Besides, Bella’s prowess was giving her notoriety within the advertising circles. She’d been nominated and had won two more Clios, for the York Towne Clothing campaign and New Moon Cosmetics. She worked with both of those clients, bringing them to her team when she’d gotten her own, along with another beauty brand, some hair care company that made specialized shampoos and conditioners specifically for hair-care needs. The formula was completely customizable.
“Wow,” Bella breathed as I pulled into the driveway. “I can’t believe that this all ours.”
“I know,” I whispered. I put the car into park. I jogged around to Bella’s side of the car, helping her out. I threaded my fingers with hers, walking up the stairs and handing her the keys. “Open the door, angel.” She smiled widely, unlocking the door and pushing it open. I swept her into my arms and carried her across the threshold.
“Edward, seriously?” she giggled, putting her arms around my neck.
“I’m carrying my wife over the threshold,” I quipped.
“We’re not married yet,” she said as I walked her into the kitchen and putting her onto the island.
