"Noemi?" Edward said, just as shocked as Noemi was.

Neither of them knew what to say. They just stared at each other with wide eyes. Noemi couldn't believe it! Edward Masen, the love of her life whom she thought was dead, was right there in front of her. She burst out in tears.

"Edward…" She cried quietly.

Noemi lunged forward and hugged him tightly. He hugged her back, holding her as close as he could.

"I can't believe it. I just can't believe it!" Noemi sobbed into his ear. "They told me you were dead."

Edward closed his eyes. Unexpected tears rolled down his cheeks.

"They told me the same thing about you. Oh God, I was devestated when I found out!"

Carlisle and Elizabeth looked on akwardly.

"You two know each other?" Elizabeth asked, one of her eyebrows raised.

Noemi unburied her face from Edward's neck. She placed a gentle hand on his cheek and looked into his beautiful golden eyes.

"It's him, Lizzie, it's him! The one I've always told you about."

Edward didn't know what to say. He wanted to ask so many questions like; How have you been? Where have you been? How did you end up like this? Tons of things ran though his mind, but he didn't know where to start.

"I've missed you so much." He told her.

"I've missed you, too." Noemi said through sobs.

He stared at her beautiful face. Her skin was the same tanned color it had been the last time he saw her. She had the same doe eyes he had always loved, except that her once dark brown eyes were now golden.

"Noemi, what happened? How did you…"

He looked at her questionably. His long fingers glided over the skin of her cold arm.

"It doesn't matter right now. All that matters is that we're both here."

They smiled at each with watery eyes. Noemi wanted so badly to just kiss him. She hadn't felt his lips on hers in nearly a hundred years. She needed his kisses. In fact, she craved it. She fought the urge to pull his face closer and kiss him. She imagined that his kiss would be gentle yet passionate, just like it had been before. Oh my God, he looks amazing! She wondered why he was a vampire now. How did he end up like this? She thought. And who turned him? Her mind was racing with curiousity, but she decided to ask questions later. At the moment she just wanted to rejoyce in the fact that they back in each other's arms once again. They had spent the last ninety-something years apart, each thinking the other was dead. Now they were brought back together again, this time reborn into immortality. It was like God was giving them a second chance at the life they had talked about. Noemi could already see them getting married and spending forever together. They couldn't have any children, but she was okay with that. Edward was back in her life, and she was very grateful for that.
