I wondered how long it would take for him to figure out her pen name.
Was he invading her privacy? I don't think so. Should he be upset, sure. Wouldn't you? Sunday's party will be another upside down day of mixed emotions for Edward. Causing Bella to wonder what happened over night.
Author's Response:
Hi Moltz!
I can't thank you enough for all your wonderful reviews. They have given me giggles. Unfortunately, I am a teacher by day and don't have the opportunity to reply to reviews...I'm busy teaching the future...heaven help them! I can't write reviews from work very easily because I'm sure Big Brother is watching over my shoulder, wondering why I wm writing the stuff I do. LOL So, I'm limited to a few hours in the evening and I'm also trying to write the next chapter of this silly tale.
Thank you for the smiles, giggles and guffaws.

PS I should probably post this entire note in my next chapter's author's note. But at least you read it first. ;)
Date: 23 Feb 2012 1:52 AM Title: Chapter 23: McCarty Party of Five
Great prank on Emmett; playing on his strolling mariachis fears and making him 2 years older. very funny!
Ass seems to be a very strong theme.....he is amending his outlook and approach to living. Glad the girls decided to sit with the guys. Fun was had by all!
Date: 23 Feb 2012 1:01 AM Title: Chapter 22: Angela Weber and the Mexican Mandate
Emmett, you are killing me with your practical jokes!
Kind of feel for Edward and his messed up mind/feelings.
Jasper as Emmett's cousin, good choice! Keepin it all in the family. Alice will be happy to find this out. When does Rose get introduced to Emmett? On Sunday?
Date: 23 Feb 2012 12:20 AM Title: Chapter 21: A Series of Thought Provoking Events
Awe, Edward is sending flowers to his two favorite teachers. How sweet.
I chuckled at Bella's line of thinking: I don't own a single stitch of clothing that costs two hundred dollars!
Yes you do…you own the "Bitch" cap.
Gah!
Hope Edward's night out with Emmett's cousin is a huge bust. So much so that he heads home early.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 11:32 PM Title: Chapter 20: Coincidences...and Plan B
Blue Room of Lewd Behavior! Great name. Does Bella have a secret fetish regarding punishment or is this how her brain deals with her feelings of screwing things up with Edward.
Jasper is cute in his mild display of jealousy towards Ben Cheney. You took Tyler out of the picture in a rather abrupt manor. Mike is already trying to put the moves on Bella. Hope Jessica has better moves for Mike.
Maybe Eric will ask Bella about Edward hanging around her Class room giving Mike the impression someone else is interested.
Plan B was a perfect approach to making amends. When Edward referred to inside information, is that how he knew about bellybean?
Author's Response:
Hi again, Moltz!
The Blue Room of Lewd Behavior is a play on "The Red Room of Pain" which is mentioned in Master of the Universe (Bella's favorite story---which is Master of Her Universe). If you haven't read it it's a wonderful read..probably the best Twilight fanfiction written, but it has some BDSM themes. E.L.James is the author and the story was pulled and published as a series: Fifty Shades of Gray, Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed. Wonderful series. Available through TWCS publishing house. Worth the money. And my fave fic as well, since I am bellybeans at heart. ;)
Thanks for the love,

Date: 22 Feb 2012 10:37 PM Title: Chapter 19: Distractions
Could Esme's funny thought for Edward be that she has stumbled on to fanfiction? Could she be Young_at_Heart? That would be a nice turn of events to help Edward, wouldn't it!
He's fantasizing about Bella now, he has to find a way to fix this shroud of shame hovering over the two households.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 9:50 PM Title: Chapter 18: Do the (After)Math
Knee jerk reactions are always an over exaggeration. At least they are both reviewing the unfortunate turn of events. Trying to shed some light on their own responses. They are so quick to judge themselves as lacking.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 8:36 PM Title: Chapter 17: True Confessions of Stealth Transgressions
You just had to guess that the ambiance would be ruined as soon as the lights came back on. They were both operating under the guise of anonymity in the dark. How will this play out in Bella's story?
They both have had the same thought that Alice should not be privy to this night. Which one breaks first? Spilling all the juicy details.
Will Edward go stalking her now in the world of fanfiction?
Date: 22 Feb 2012 7:58 PM Title: Chapter 16: Enlightenment
A very sweet evening as they begin getting to know each other. I'm glad Edward pushed the Jake question.
Will he have the guts to ask about her strawberry scent on his pillow?
Date: 22 Feb 2012 7:17 PM Title: Chapter 15: In the Dark About So Much
They are literally playing with fire. lol
Edward is having episodes of jealousy that he is even unaware of. Interesting that Alice picked up on it.
Has Edward figured out that the candle is also a part of her visit to his bedroom?
Date: 22 Feb 2012 6:40 PM Title: Chapter 14: Puzzling Pieces
Sometimes I feel like that naive person, just plowing forward not thinking about self preservation. Alice may be a bit over the top in her concerns but it's nice that she took the time to admonish Edward and warn Bella
Date: 22 Feb 2012 6:03 PM Title: Chapter 13: Not What One Would Espect
I must admit the conversation between Edward and Emmett about the massive dildo had me rolling on the floor.
Nice to meet the rest of the gang.
Interesting developement....Edward at the door of Bella's classroom, looking for Alice. What is their connection?
Date: 22 Feb 2012 5:04 PM Title: Chapter 12: Post Time
I'm not sure it's such a good thing to relive events through writing unless it is in your journal. I guess everyone has an opinion that can shed light on issues but rehashing if repeatedly could be exhausting.
Sleep tight with the soothing smell of your Predateur!
Date: 22 Feb 2012 4:24 PM Title: Chapter 11: Days of Reckoning
That sure was a lot of angst!
Enlightenment has a way of exhausting a person. Hope they will come to terms with their own confused thoughts.
He caught her.....how will he play this one out?
Date: 22 Feb 2012 3:53 PM Title: Chapter 10: Into the Lair
Love Emmett making himself at home.
Talking key chains....sign of an insatiable mind. Funny internal banter.
Holy crap he came home early!
Date: 22 Feb 2012 2:59 PM Title: Chapter 9: Perceptiions and Misperceptions
Is it her conscience that prevents her from snooping further? That will change as her curiosity gets the better of her.
Great use of the citrus play on thought, word and deed.
The confusion continues.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 2:22 PM Title: Chapter 8: Departures
Preconceived notions and constant misinterpretations, these things seem to be the basis of their entire thought process and conversations.
Not to mention the unusual sexual tension floating in the air that surrounds them.
How will they learn to deal.
I'll bet Bella becomes a snoop now that she has access to his place.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 1:51 PM Title: Chapter 7: Aide-de-Camp Black
Like this description of Bella:
She is a little pepper pot.
She's like an angry kitten.
Jake is a bit misinformed so his opinion is a bit skewed as far as Bella is concerned.
Interesting interaction by Edward after the non-confrontational car ride.
Bella should have purchased a Kings size bed if three guys will constantly be joining her in her dreams. lol
Date: 22 Feb 2012 1:20 PM Title: Chapter 6: Moving Right Along
Dickman and Dingbat.
The capped crusader and his little sidekick. Off on an adventure together.
Bella's brain is hilarious.
Poor girl just can't catch a break.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 5:40 AM Title: Chapter 12: Post Time
I forgot to mention in the last chapter review - "Prédateur" HAHAHAHA priceless!
Date: 22 Feb 2012 5:10 AM Title: Chapter 5: From Bad to Unimaginably Worse
Bella's inexperience and the sports analogies always remind me of the song by Meatloaf - Paradise by the Dashboard Lights.
Edward has performance anxiety. Funny, since his life is all about the looks and performance.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 4:29 AM Title: Chapter 4: Mr. Silk Pants a.k.a. Mr. Big Stuff
Wow, I remember that song. Immediately started singing it as I read...'now replace Mr. Big Stuff with Mr. Silk Pants'. So funny!
What are best buddies for if you can't vent and get great ideas from them?

Bwahahahaha!
Date: 22 Feb 2012 3:56 AM Title: Chapter 3: If the Hat Fits, Wear It
Travel days generally end up like that for me. Delays, missing luggage, cancelled flights, late arrivals causing me to miss connecting flights. All this leads to a wonderful headache and exhaustion.
At least Bella's furniture arrived on time and undamaged.
The tension between them is spectacular.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 3:48 AM Title: Chapter 10: Into the Lair
You are the master of cliffhangers.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 3:06 AM Title: Chapter 2: A New Chapter in Her Life
I anticipated an explosive greeting but you surpassed my expectations!
The hat was the best prop used in any story I have read. Priceless!
Poor, Mortified Bella. Not the best welcome wagon, meet the neighbors moment. I'm sure it will get more convoluted as the chapters roll on.
Date: 22 Feb 2012 2:14 AM Title: Chapter 1: The Story Has to Start Somewhere
I've had this marked in my favorites, but had not taken the time to start reading. Glad that I did. This has a very interesting start. Wonder how explosive their first meeting will be?
Date: 21 Feb 2012 7:04 PM Title: Chapter 6: Moving Right Along
Asshole's inner-thoughts are perfection. My own stories are gathering dust as I sit here reading this and laughing loudly to my computer screen. Thank you for such a fun read.

cute!!!!!
Date: 21 Feb 2012 5:05 AM Title: Chapter 1: The Story Has to Start Somewhere
I meant that I have read this exact chapter several times as it posted new. I thought it was some glitch. You know sometimes on fanfiction dot net when a story chapter first posts you can get an alert but the new chapter won't show up. But you go back a little later and it is there. But it seemed this was the third time I'd read this particular chapter. I just now found I have your story also favorites on fanfiction dot net. I try to not favorite the same story on more than one site but it seemed this one slipped through. Would you also have posted it to twilighted dot com? If so that might be why I feel I've rec'd the same update multiple times. It has felt that way on the last two chapters as a matter of fact. I hadn't noticed before. I kept thinking it was a glitch as I said. Then I thought maybe you had made some subtle changes or corrections and were re posting. Sorry
Author's Response:
Hi TT
Well, the mystery is solved and I must say I feel a whole lot better for it. I've been in a funk for the past few hours, beating myself up, trying to decide why my last three chapters would seem so repetitive. Turns out I do post on all three sites: FFN first, then Twilighted and finally here at TWCS. I spread it out over a few days so my inbox isn't a complete nightmare. So, if you're reading updates from all three sites, of course that would be repetitive. ;)
Now I'm going to go have a glass of wine and a smoke to celebrate that I can move on. lol

Why do you keep reposting the same chapter over and over. It is frustrating to be very mild. This is I think the third time this story shows up as a new update and it is the very same chapter every time
Author's Response:
I don't really understand your comment. This latest chapter was Bella's response to what Edward had written to her., which is actually the premise of the whole story. She is addressing his questions and giving him some hope to pursue her, although she isn't aware of that. I'm not sure how else I could have accomplished her reply. A big part of this story is the communication between them.
Oh well. Sorry you are so disappointed.
Date: 19 Feb 2012 4:28 AM Title: Chapter 27: Illuminating Events
LMAO I dont think they are the only ones reading it. In fact I bet the whole family is reading it. lol. I was so hoping to see Bella's response to his review in this chapter.
Date: 19 Feb 2012 4:03 AM Title: Chapter 26: Discussion and Dissection
OMG I love the pen names you were juggling around with. I really liked Im2sexy4mypants but I think that would have given away that he was a male so Stardusted was the best I think.
I cant wait to read what she writes back to him. Hopefully he will see that she really does want them together.
Date: 17 Feb 2012 6:42 PM Title: Chapter 2: A New Chapter in Her Life
I had to wait until I could catch my breath before I could review this chapter. I laughed so hard I think I peed a little.

OK - Edward ia ao so dumb - it is adorable!!! He is going to read something or better yet his Mom will and reveal it to Bella in a conversation. Of course, it will have to be something only known to readers of her story!!! It will be great - it should be a family event. I absolutely love this story and have read everyone of those stories you listed in Bella's favs except one. Yes I am a FF addict, but only of the high quality stories like yours. I always seek out the favs of writers I like to get more stories to read. I switch between vamp and human for varieity but I only like the vamp stories that really change it up. One of my absolute favs is Beyond Time by Tkegl. It is a real gem. Thanks again for the entertainment.

Crack me UP!!!!!!! LOL! I loved it! I have been seeing your story recc'd in different places and it makes me soooo happy for YOU!

LMAO! That was too funny. His mother reading this story. Question: how's momma gonna take it when they have sex and Bella writes about it?? Or even Edward?? Update soon. :)
Date: 15 Feb 2012 11:11 AM Title: Chapter 27: Illuminating Events
Whew...he made it through that conversation with his mother without permanent scarring.
I have an image of Angela listening to a group at the BBQ chatting about this story they're reading online. As the discussion gets lively and loud, everyone else takes notice. Bella listens relatively comfortably, curious for her readers' opinions; Esme is quietly interested and watches Bella and Edward as they react; Edward's jaw drops as he pinches the bridge of his nose. Then Carlisle walks in the room, "Hey, who's hat is this? I'm reading a story where this girl hangs a hat on this guy's erection".
Date: 13 Feb 2012 6:46 AM Title: Chapter 9: Perceptiions and Misperceptions
I love this story so far.... I loved the whole hat scene well all the hat scenes lol...Bella is great in this story love how u put in here that she writes stories for fanfiction....But anyway thank you for writing this its great so far cant wait to read more

Love this story. HAve to wonder if any of this is based on real-life( fan-fic inspired by RL) Bella's baker's dozen is almost the same as mine. Love the pen names. can't wait to keep reading.

Oh God..i read this chapter just go up, now how to work thinking about Edward naked in the shower? LOL
Date: 01 Feb 2012 9:26 PM Title: Chapter 24: Cyber-Stalking a Swan
Hehehehe XD
I've been a silent reader for a couple days now after only recently discovering this pretty fantastic fic XD I gotta say I LOVE how you've re-named the series and some of my own personal favs 'MoTU' 'Wide Awake' 'Last Tango in Forks' and God knows how many others XD =]
At least we have similiar tastes in amazing fan-fic and obviously your own story should now be added to the list of paradies.
I really have loved it so far and tbh those silky pants are damn sexy XD Wouldn't mind a pair of them for someone I know ;]
I'm obviously a late reader but I enjoyed everything the same [I think]. I'm more of a quite observer but Bella's Bakers Dozen made me speak =]
I can't wait to move on to the next chapter which is right there >>> XD
Thankies for sharing this with us

Edward now has a backstage pass into Bella's thoughts. He also saw what a jerk he was from Bella's POV. He already knew he wanted to change, but I think he is more motivated.
Date: 31 Jan 2012 2:34 PM Title: Chapter 25: When the Shit Hits the Fan Fiction
Gah!! It's been 10 days and I'm dyin' to see what he says!! Can't wait to see how he acts with her now-- will he be snarky or super sweet knowing that whatever he does may end up in the story?? Will he decide how he wants to see it end and try to lead her in that direction? The possibilities are endless!!
Date: 29 Jan 2012 6:35 AM Title: Chapter 25: When the Shit Hits the Fan Fiction
Still lovin Edwards POV. What's his Penname? Can't wait to read HIS review, and see wahat happens at the picnic/cookout.
Thanks for writing.
Date: 29 Jan 2012 5:38 AM Title: Chapter 24: Cyber-Stalking a Swan
Great chapter!! No really, great chapter. But whereas Bella didn't infringe on his musical compositions he doesn't give a shit (or doesn't see it as) about reading her semi-private works. Love it. What an asshat.
Now of the "13" I was only able to identify 5, but some of the authors' pennames I almost figured out. I propably haven't read all her favorites, but like Bella " Never Sleep" was my first and "Master of Her Universe" was the best.
Have almost caught up to everyone.
Date: 29 Jan 2012 4:13 AM Title: Chapter 25: When the Shit Hits the Fan Fiction
Since update alerts haven't been coming into my e-mail this is the first chance I've had to read the latest. It was great! I'm curious to see what Edward's review of Bella's first chapter will be. Old saying goes truth hurts and it appears Edward got a bucket full of truth in Bella's story.

Date: 06 Jan 2012 10:25 PM Title: Chapter 24: Cyber-Stalking a Swan
I love it!!!! This is how I sort of pictured him finding out. Of course he got up a read it -- and just wait until she starts to up date...he will be like the rest of us poor FF readers ... anticipating the next chapter so very eagerly. Yours is the type of story that I like to find when it is complete so that I can be greedy and read it all at once. Oh well, this is fun too. She is going to be so pissed when she finds out eventually ... he is going to make a mistake a reveal something that he could have only found out by reading her story. He is so very entertaining in that he doesn't seem to look at consequences when his "dick" is involved lol!!!
Date: 06 Jan 2012 7:08 PM Title: Chapter 24: Cyber-Stalking a Swan
I'm out of town on business but had to find a computer to readthis when I saw you posted.
So glad I found a secluded corner in this hotel lobby - not too many people to explain what is causing gasps and laughter.
I would expect him to be upset, but he also seems like he may be able to see the humor in it all as he reads the way Bella presents it. Hopefully by barbecue time he will want to help her 'experience the chase'. Maybe he'll even approach Angela to help him.
OH OH OH! ...he has to post reviews! my oh my

NOOOOOOOOOO! I don't want him to read her story! Those are her private thoughts that aren't really private. Annonymous, that's it! ... gasp... oh no.
Great dinner. Great prank. I gotta say this was one of my favorite chapters. They are so cute together. Glad to see that Angela is open-minded and perceptive.
Date: 31 Dec 2011 6:37 AM Title: Chapter 19: Distractions
You know, I finally figured out what I love about this story (besides the fact that it so funny is makes you want to slap your pappy.) I can totally relate to this Bella! Not that hot guys regularly yell at me when they're aroused. Gah. No, I find myself saying, "Oh my God, I do that!" Although I think I'm slightly more obsessive about getting reviews than Bella is. Mmsa says I have a problem and should seek counceling. Also, I'm horrible about responding to reviews. I don't know, I used to respond to all of them. Then as more people started reading it started becoming overwhelming. Not that I'm complaining...lol. I wish I could respond to them all. Good for you if you're anything like your Bella!
P.S. You can never go wrong with an Edward self-lovin' scene ;)
Author's Response:
Hi hb!
Sorry for the delay! I was trying to finish a chapter for New Year's Eve. I haven't posted it here yet...just over on FFN, but I'll post it here in a few days.
I think you are spot on with the interest in this Bella. With all her awkwardness and basketcasery, she feels familiar. I think most of us, no matter how cool and collected we might seem, often have doubts. Especially when it comes to relationships. And I think maybe this Edward is also kind of alluring simply because of that same fact. This girl has him rattled, and he doesn't usually rattle, so it's fun to see his turmoil, because you don't expect it to be there.
Thanks for all the reviews. Sorry I didn't do a better job about replying to all of them. For some reason, I'm much better about replying to reviews (I really try to get every last one) over on FFN than here or Twilighted.
Happy New Year!

Oh, but I love him jumping to conclusions!
No, Bella! We like that Predator's jewels! If you're nice to them, they'll be nice to you ;)
*Face-palm*... she should have said she locked her knees...ugh...
Who is this broad talking in her head?!?!?! I don't think I like her. She needs a gag.
Killjoy, indeed. :P
OMG...she's taunting the Predator! Where's that little voice now?!?!

Oh my God, she did not just faint!
Hmmm...honestly I wasn't digging the way the pixie was giving our boy a hard time, but after this chapter I think I might like her. She was never one of my fav Twilight character...always scheming.

LOL...that he's jealous of Eric Yorkie....*gasps clutching side*...can't breathe...
OMG! I LOVE getting reviews from male readers. I got one today that made me choke on my spit, snort, and respond in a very un-ladylike way. It was awwwesoooome! Oh I can't wait to find out who these reviewers are :D
"Can I be candid?" Pfft. Sure, tell us how you really feel.
Ah, young_at_hearts review made me smile. Boys and their...toys?...hehehe. Or, "Hey, look at what I can do!"...with my junk.
Hmmm... would that be a newly dented sandalwood candle?

Wait... so he didn't put that python in the side table?... You know, they tell you to take the batteries out when not in use. Just saying...
KING DONG!...hehehe...Mega meat*snort*...sonofabitch...hehehe
That is some pretty vivid alliteration. Dirk Diggler Dancing Dong. Kinda just rolls off the tongue--oh yeah. I love it when words are naughty!
OMG....I was going to say that Bella's lucky. I always love it when Alice is nice and outgoing and it's certain that they will be great friends (not how I always write her), but this connection to Edward must have Bella on guard. Not a good way to start a friendship.
Author's Response:
Just "BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
Python...batteries out..."Dirk Diggler Dancing Dong kind of just rolls of the tongue." (Better than having the Dirk Diggler Dancing Dong dribbling off your tongue, you know?)
Glad you like my alliterative and naughty language.
Thanks for the latest cackles.

Holy shit, indeed!
I gotta telly ya, anytime I hear or see, "Are you crying?" I immediately hear Tom Hanks telling me there's no crying in baseball. Crazy, huh?

Inanimate objects taunting her? Maybe she is a basket case.
Awwwwww, I like Tupperware-holding, cookie-eating, eyes-only-for-Bella, Edward!
That's hilarious when the basket case thinks you're screwy...lol. And yes, he was totally standing there naked.
I can't believe you made me look up gubernatorial...*snort*. And I can totally see someone with a love of books being named Atticus, but it does sound old...hmmm.
She's so gonna get caught.
I CAN'T WATCH. I CAN'T WATCH. I CAN'T WATCH.....
I can't believe you stopped it there. If I were Bella, I'd totally own it. Say, "Hey, you're back. BTW, I went snooping. It happens. Bye!"
Author's Response:
He helluvabell!
I laughed all the way through this review. And I wanted to hug "Tupperwear-holding, cookie-eating, eyes-only-for-Bella Edward"...especially when you described him that way. You are describing Inner Edward. He's in there and I'm trying to bring him out.
I loved the "I CAN'T WATCH segment of your review. I'm surprised you were able to type that out, hiding behind the couch like you were. LOL
Thanks for giving me some guffaws. Your reviews are a delight.

Bella and Edward got Emmett back good. I am glad that Angela could tell that Edward is really trying to change.
Date: 29 Dec 2011 6:40 PM Title: Chapter 9: Perceptiions and Misperceptions
I loved reading Edward's thoughts during this chapter. Too funny. "Tit-for-tat... tit... cleavage... pink bra."
LOL
I don't think I would be brave enough to go snooping through the Dickcave. I know, I know, I'm a wuss. But I'd be afraid of what I'd find.
Author's Response:
Hi helluvabell!
Well, what can I say? I love being insigde Edward's head. If I can't be in his bed, I can at least try to get into his head, right? ;)
I am loving your play-by-play reactions to what you are reading. Thank you so much for all the reviews. I hope you continue to enjoy the read.

You did not call her vagina a hot pocket!
Sounds like B has a little green monster on her shoulder. Or maybe... Yeah, I can see where she's coming from. To apologize for bad behavior then immediately ask for a favor like that seems in bad form. Then again he did help her move in. Oh well!

"vhy your cock does not vorrk..." --hehehe
Yeah.

Don't you hate it when people blame you for their crappy day?
Loved the Dickmobile and Dickcave...LOL.

Oh my God! That was too hilarious. Seriously, I needed that laugh. I'll keep checking in as I read ;)
Date: 26 Dec 2011 4:50 PM Title: Chapter 23: McCarty Party of Five
hilarious! loved it...omg....what kinda shit are they going to have to dig their way out of if he reads her stoy based on him? it's either going to go bad or it's going to be something he uses to find out how she feels about him......oh thepossibilities!
Date: 26 Dec 2011 2:27 PM Title: Chapter 23: McCarty Party of Five
That was a GREAT chapter- Can't wait to read about the cookout!
