Charlie was happy seeing Aquila eat with him it has been three days since Aquila started to open up again. Bella didn't know what was going on. She's just happy seeing the oh so perfect cousin of her suffer and be less perfect than she is. But Bella hates seeing Aquila get all the attention because Charlie and the Cullens had given Aquila as much comfort as they could. Even Angela and Jessica came to visit her and Jessica hated Aquila before.
After their dinner, Charlie wanted to talk to Aquila alone. They headed to the living room while Bella rolled her eyes and locked herself in her bedroom.
"Is something wrong, uncle C?"
"No. No. Nothing is wrong Wils. Actually I have great news for you..." And right on que, a knock was heard from the front door. Charlie motioned for Aquila to answer it.
When Aquila opened the door, she was instantly tackled by a mop of untamable black hair, messy brown hair and bright red hair. Two older women and a blonde young man looked down at them in amusement while the baby in one of the older women's arms.
"Children." Narcissa said in a warning tone. This made Harry, Ron, Hermione and Aquila stand up and smarten themselves. Draco snorted at their action.
"Come in, everyone." Aquila said, motioning for them to come inside.
"You're not joking right? Please tell me this isn't a prank." Aquila asked pleadingly.
"My mother is not joking... unfortunately." Draco grumbled.
Narcissa and Andromeda explained that they were going to live in Forks with Aquila. Narcissa already bought a house for her, Draco, Andromeda and Teddy saying Black's must stick together. It was a house near the Cullen's and Esme designed it herself. Harry, Ron and Hermione already bought the flat that was beside Charlie's house. They were already planning about it since Aquila returned to Forks. British magical media had been harassing them about the details of the war so they decided to take a break and live on a normal town, whick Kingsley thinks is a great idea to let them heal.
And now here she is, Aquila Black forced by her family and friends to attend prom. Charlie thinks it's a good idea to let aquila have a moment of normalcy even for just one night. Narcissa and Andromeda helped her prepare for prom where Edward would escort her.
Bella was standing with Charlie and Edward with a frown. She didn't meet the wizards and witches, not that she knew they were one. Charlie only told her that Aquila's aunts, cousin, nephew, godbrother and friends moved in Forks. The said aunts were currently helping her prepare while Teddy is being babysit by the golden trio and a grumpy Draco.

Bella saw two beautiful middle aged women coming down the stairs, one was a brunette while the other had blonde and black hair. They smiled at them.
"She's coming down shortly." The brunette woman said.
Edward froze as he saw his mate descended down the stairs. She was so beautiful, so ethereal. She's more beautiful than a vampire. He wasn't even sure how she's real. And he didn't know what he did to deserve such an amazing mate.
Andromeda and Narcissa shared a smirk as they saw Edward's awed expression. He looked like he was drugged with amortentia. Charlie was close to tearing up. It was as if his sister had came back to life to grace him with her presence. Bella glared at her cousin with jealousy. Why does she have to be so damn perfect?
"Aunt Cissa gave me this dress. My aunt can be very over the top when it comes to fashion. Is it too...?" Aquila said as she reached the last step.
"You're perfect." That was the only words Edward could bear to say.
"Now off you go, children. And Edward, take care of my niece." Narcissa said. Edward nodded his head on them and led his mate towards his car. Isabella walked towards her truck to drive on her own.
"That dress looks so familiar." Charlie stated which made Narcissa smirk.
"It should be. That dress was worn by Luna Black on her seventh year's yule ball." The Malfoy matriarch stated. "Now I must leave the two of you to handle some things you'd need to handle. Good night." She said then apparated away. Now Andromeda and Charlie are all alone in the room as Charlie showed her how to go fishing in muggle way. Andromeda always wanted to learn but never had anyone to teach her.
At the prom, Jacob approached Aquila and told her that his dad wanted him to tell Aquila to break up with her boyfriend. Aquila laughed at him and told him her and Edward aren't a thing yet. She waved him off and walked towards Edward who had a very jealous expression.
"I leave you for a minute and the wolves descends." Edward whispered at her.
"Oh please, leave the poor shifters alone."
Then Isabella Swan blocked their way.
"I really don't understand why you would choose to be with her over me. Look at her. She's not as skinny as me. " She told Edward then faced her cousin. "You don't deserve him. You're an orphan who is too damaged and beyond repair. They're just hanging around you because they pity you.
"Okay let's go back to the part that made you think that I cared... Because I really don't. I don't care why they stick around. What's important is that I have them." Aquila stated before dragging Edward away from her cousin.

Edward stopped and kissed her hands to reassure her. It was a wordless conversation but their actions made their message clear. The two of them smiled at each other with lovesick eyes. Edward led her to go to a place he prepared especially for Aquila. They saw Alice and Jasper dancing and having the time of their lives. Rosalie and Emmett were also dancing. The blonde girl saw her coven brother and sworn sister. She gave them a smile.
Aquila also saw Jessica with Mike and Angela with Ben. They actually chose the dresses she recommended and they look stunning. They waved at Aquila when they saw her while signaling that she looks gorgeous and stunning. Aquila sent them flying kisses. Edward hated how everyone thinks that his mate is stunning and hit. He could read their lustful thoughts about her which made him feel possessive. He led her outside hastily.
"Prom is an important rite of passage. I don't want you to miss it." Edward said firmly.
"But you're leading me away from the dancefloor, you wanker." Aquila said chuckling and rolling her eyes.
But Aquila gasped after seeing a piano in the middle of a gazebo with a vinyl on the side. Edward made her sit beside him as he played a beautiful melody for her. She didn't know the song but it was truly enchanting. Aquila laid her head on his shoulder as he played for her. Aquila smiled when the song ended. She stood and kissed Edward on the forehead.
"What song was that?" Aquila asked.
"It's your lullaby. I wrote it the night after the car accident." Edward told her.
"Was it before or after you watched me sleep?" Aquila jested. If Edward was a normal human, his face would be very red by now.
"Well...you see...I ..I--" Aquila chuckled at the flustered vampire.
"Do I make you nervous, Mr. Cullen?" She ask as she walked towards the vinyl and played the song that they were oh so familiar with.
Edward pulled her to his embrace and held her the same way he did when they were in his room.
"Very much, Miss Black." He said as they began to sway.
"Take it easy with me, please
Touch me gently like a summer evening breeze
Take your time, make it slow
Andante, Andante
Just let the feeling grow
Make your fingers soft and light
Let your body be the velvet of the night
Touch my soul, you know how
Andante, Andante
Go slowly with me now"
Edward suddenly spun her around which elicited a soft squeal and laughter from her.
"I'm your music (I am your music and I am your song)
I'm your song (I'm your music and I am your song)
Play me time and time again and make me strong
(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please, don't let me down"
He then dipped her and kissed her forehead at the same time. Then they swayed again, not minding some of the students decided to watch them.
"There's a shimmer in your eyes
Like the feelin' of a thousand butterflies
Please don't talk, go on, play
Andante, Andante
And let me float away
I'm your music (I am your music and I am your song)
I'm your song (I'm your music and I am your song)
Play me time and time again and make me strong
(Play me again 'cause you're making me strong)
Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please, don't let me down"
"Let me be yours." Edward whispered making Aquila stop and look at him with wide eyes. "I don't deserve you. No one does. But I'll do everything that I can to be enough for you." he said as he caressed her cheek. "So please let me be yours."
Aquila's heart was beating rapidly. She looked at him with pure love in her eyes, her arms in his neck moved away as her hands cupped his face.
"I will if you'd let me be yours too." She said smiling at him.
"Make me sing, make me sound
(You make me sing and you make me)
Andante, Andante
Tread lightly on my ground
Andante, Andante
Oh please, don't let me down
Andante, Andante
Oh please, don't let me down"
They finally sealed it with a kiss. And it became official. Aqulia Callisto Black and Edward Anthony Masen Cullen are finally together.
None of them expected that a red haired vampire glared at them with the same intensity as the brunette beside her.
_______
A/N:
That's the end of the first part! We'll be moving onto New Moon and Eclipse but beware guys, the next books wouldn't be as similar to the original story as the first part.
I did save the lullaby part for the last on purpose. Do you really think I'd forget the only thing that Edward Cullen did right as a boyfriend?
I will start updating for the second part on the third week of August so y'all can relax for a bit.

[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License. For those unfamiliar with my writing style, Second Chances was my first attempt at writing. I'm not sure how much I learned in the process, except that readers get angry when you mess with characters they like! Warnings - I tend to info dump. I know I do this, I like slice of life novels that take time to unfold. So don't expect action, murder, and battles in every chapter, it isn't going to happen I prefer the first-person narrative. I will do an occasional POV shift, but it will never be done mid-chapter. I hope you enjoy the story, comments, ratings, and favorites are greatly appreciated!

Recovery: Ignis
My Name is Keiren. Keiren Ignis. At least that was what IT told me. Now all I have to do is figure out everything else. No simple task when you're an amnesiac. Honestly, why do I know these words and what they mean, but I have no idea who or even what I am. Except for what IT told me. IT is whatever is causing the wierd pop-up screens that appear in my vision when I think about certain things. Seems like I'm going to have to play by ITs rules until I get a better understanding of everything else. This is my first attempt at writing anything. To be honest I'm not 100% sure as to what direction this will take. GLHF It became sci-fi. There will probably be a romantic subplot at some point. There will be some implied sexual content, but nothing more explicit than kissing will be written. Will try to release at least one chapter a week, but there could be none, or possibly 3 or 4.
