Summary:

On a mid-September evening, Edward Cullen broke off his relationship with Bella and the entire Cullen family left Forks never to be seen again.

2 years have passed and now Bella Swan is a Psychology & English Literature undergraduate at MIT University. She has abandoned love and any sort of relationship, burying her self in her studies and a limited social life. But when an unexpected guest arrives at MIT during the fall, she finds herself reunited with The Cullens and embraces the dawning of a new threat on the horizon that could divide her and the Cullens for the last time.

Enjoyed this one, but found the ending a bit of a shock because I was used to the other version on another site.  Will have to read again to see which one I actually prefer.  At least she ends up with Carlisle in both of them.

Shame the epilogue was never posted.  I'm assuming it is fairly close to the other version, though.

Summary: Past Featured Story

She's lost her muse. He's missing inspiration. When Bella and Edward meet, will they be able to heal the tattered pieces of their hearts? Or will they forever be alone?

Thanks for the outtake.  Sounds like a pretty dress, and not at all conventional.  At least Renee is listening to her wishes, and both of them are trying to mend the relationship.  Will look forward to the rest of the outtakes.

Thanks for completing this one.  Looks like things are going to work out just fine for all of them.  I'm sure Edward and Bella won't be the only two getting married, but will be followed by Carlisle and Esme, Emmett and Rose, and Alice and Jasper at some point.  Will look forward to any outtakes you choose to post, as well as what comes next on your other stories.

Love this one - it is quite different than most other Bella/Carlisle stories I've read.  I know it hasn't been updated in awhile, and it seems to have disappeared from FF as well, but I'm hoping it hasn't been completely abandoned. 

Summary:

Charlie Swan made a deal with the devil. Owing a debt he couldn't repay, he took the cowardly way out and offered his daughter's services to pay off his tab. The rich and powerful Carlisle Cullen greedily accepts, and Bella finds herself at the mercy of a dark and violent man. Will she survive? Or will he beat the life out of her? Dark themes. NC-17 for violence and language. AU.

Oh yes, lots of drama yet to come.  They've got a lot ahead of them One thing I'm uncertain about is if Gabriel Varner is actually dead or not.  That wasn't actually spelled out in the last chapter, just that he dropped when shot. There could be even more drama ahead if he survived being shot.  Thanks for the update, and I look forward to the next when ready.

Thank you for completing this story.  I've loved this one since you first started with The Babysitter.  I'm delighted to hear that there will be a third story, as I don't feel their story has been fully told yet.  I'll be waiting patiently for it.   I know you've got a few others on the go, and maybe they will take precedence for awhile.

 

It will be interesting to see what is in the works for them.  Possibly their own child eventually.  Possibly a few loose ends to tie up in Forks.  Not sure if Tanya is still alive or not, but perhaps they will need to help the boys through her death.  And of course Carlisle probably hasn't had a chance to fully grieve for Peter yet, as he's been so busy trying to support Bella and the boys.  And of course reconciling with their friends is still a work in progress.  Maybe Garrett will finally marry Kate, which will give the brothers a chance to get together.

Thanks for the update.  So happy to see an update for one of my favourite stories. 

They seem to be slowly healing, although Bella perhaps a little more slowly than Carlisle.  Either that or we've just not heard quite so many of his thoughts.  It will take awhile yet, I guess.

At least Bella is beginning to reconnect with Alice and the rest of them.  Still more work to do there, on both sides.  Alice needs to come to grips with the fact that Bella has other priorities in her life now, and that the highschool friendship dynamic is bound to change now she is married with children.  Carlisle I think may take a bit longer to forgive them, but then he probably never did have quite the same connection with them as Bella did.

Will be looking forward to whatever comes next.  Of course I'm hoping for a sequel, although from what you've said this could be awhile yet.  We've got The Babysitter, The Wife, and I suppose a logical continuation would be The Mother, or something along those lines. 

Hopefully everything goes well for you healthwise, and your surgery goes well.

Thanks for the update.  Looks like Bella paid him back for the teasing.  It also looks like she's going to crash and burn with regards to school if she doesn't give herself a break in order to deal with what she's been through.  I know she wanted to get back to normal ASAP, but it would probably make sense to take at least a semester off to concentrate on healing the family relationships, and I wouldn't be too surprised to see their therapist recommend this.  I feel sorry for Michael, as he was just beginning to come around, but she probably bit off a bit too much when she agreed to make three dozen muffins.  Michael probably needs therapy as well.  Tyler seems ok.  Will be looking forward to the next update whenever it is ready for us.

Thanks for the update.  Hopefully her so called friends will stop being so judgmental at some point.  Glad to see things are slowly getting better with Michael.  I almost spat my Coke against the monitor when I read the hairy balls comment.  Will be looking forward to seeing if Bella manages to get back some of the playfulness for the boys.  Also wondering when Carlisle will finally stop the sexual teasing.  They're probably both desperate to get back together sexually again.

Glad to see the end of Gabriel Varner, and that he didn't manage to rape her.  I'd been wondering for awhile if he'd killed her father, and still wondering if he had anything to do with the fire that killed her mother.  Looks like Carlisle and Bella are going to have some issues to get over, with Bella's broken promise and Peter's death.   Looking forward to further updates when they are ready.

Ohhh - he's being really evil.  That's two chapters in a row he's left her hanging. 

 

I'm just hoping it isn't because he is having visions of Gabriel Varner.  He's right in saying that they both need therapy to overcome all that has happened to them.

 

Will be looking forward to the next chapter whenever you have it ready for us, and thank you for this one.

Oh, that's a new twist, bringing Jasper's father into the story.  Wonder how that will go.  Also hoping Bella will eventually realize that therapy is not a one off thing, but will take months if not years.  She seemed to have been expecting results after the first session.  One of my favourite stories, and will be looking forward to the next update.  Thank you for this one.

Oh dear, looks like it is going to take awhile for Michael to forgive her, not to mention gaining Carlisle's trust back.  Carlisle also needs to try to understand Bella's point of view as well.  Hopefully they will eventually be able to overcome this, and that their little family isn't broken beyond repair.  Will be looking forward to the next update, and thank you for this one.

Delighted to see an update on this one.  Hopefully Michael will come around soon.  That photographer at the end is an insensitive idiot, breaking into a funeral with a camera, but I must admit I'd been wondering if Gabriel Varner was behind that fire as well.  Will be interesting to see the reaction to the photographer in the next chapter.  I would imagine Carlisle and the others are going to be less than pleased.

Reviewer: Goldielover Signed

Thanks for the update.  Looks like they've both got a lot of healing to do, and therapy for Bella at least is probably necessary.  Nice to see Michael just beginning to come around.  Hopefully their friends will too at some point.  I'm also hoping they managed to charge that idiot of a photographer with something.  Crashing a funeral is just plain wrong.  Oh, and I'd have been pissed at Carlisle at the end as well.  Will look forward to the next chapter whenever you have it ready for us.

Thanks for the update.  That was quite the first day back.  Hoping Alice and the rest of them become more supportive soon.  Neither Bella nor Carlisle need the added condemnation from them.  Also hoping Bella doesn't crash and burn out of school, although could see this happening.  Looks like Michael hasn't totally forgiven Bella yet, although at least he's better than he was.  Hope nothing gets in the way of his art festival.  I'm really hoping they manage to mend their relationship with the help of the counselling, but I know they've got a long way to go.  Will be looking forward to the next chapter whenever it is ready for us.

Thanks for the update.  Nice to see Jasper may be getting a second chance with his father.  Also glad to see that Michael seems to have recovered his trust for the most part.  It will be interesting to see how Garrett and Marcus are with them, and what Marcus wants to see Carlisle for. 

 

Sorry to hear about the health issues.  Hope those are improving now.  I will be looking forward to seeing what comes next, and of course I'm always up for another in the series about one of my favourite couples.

I was delighted to see an update for this one.  I've enjoyed this little series right from the first time I found The Babysitter.  It is nice that everything seems to be falling into place, and that the boys have come around.  Wondering what is going on with some of the others, such as Alice, Esme, Rosalie and Emmett.  I'm of course hoping they manage to reconnect physically soon - its been a long time for them when they used to make love so often.  I also suspect the day will come when they need to go back to Forks, just to help put the demons to rest as part of their therapy.  And you know I'd be right up there for a sequel if you feel up to writing it.  The day may come when they become parents yet again.   Anyways, thanks for this update, and I'll be looking forward to the next.

At least she woke up.  I know it has been hard on all of them, but I think Edward is being just a little hard on Carlisle.  Carlisle has had his own mental health issues to deal with, including, if I recall correctly, self harming, with not much support because the rest of the family had too much on their own plates.  That being said, he could have called and said he was trying to get to Chicago.

Thanks for the update.  I think they're all being a little hard on Carlisle and Esme, personally.  I know they were all left without their parents, and as the eldest they had to step up to the plate, but the truth is that they lost their parents too, and are really just young adults not much older than the others themselves attempting to find their own way while trying to keep the families together. Dealing with younger siblings with health issues can't have been easy either.  Carlisle in particular struggled, and they're probably lucky they didn't lose him.  Anyways, it will be interesting to see how things go with Alice's recovery.

Wasn't expecting that ending.  Wonder how much Charlie heard.  Sounds like it will be awhile before Bella forgives Edward, and also quite awhile before Edward forgives Carlisle, although I do feel he is being rather hard on him.  He isn't their parent, and it isn't so long since he was suicidal himself.

Hopefully getting help will be a turning point for everyone.  I think they all need it, as what happened affected everyone.  Perhaps not Esme, Emmett and Rosalie quite so much, but the two younger couples as well as Carlisle do.  After all, he's being blamed for what happened to Alice by the younger ones, but he's not that old himself, and it isn't too long ago that he was cutting.
