Aww *tears* so sweet!!! Poor Bella!!
Date: 19 Aug 2011 10:35 PM Title: Chapter 37
Its amazing that everyone thinks that Bella doesnt want them, and she just feels stretched between the two. I don't blame her for continually running to Edward's... he's the only one who doesn't pressure her at all.
I agree she needs to deal, but seriously, with the way the Swans are acting- I would want to delay dealing too.

great chapter looking foward to the next one

Thanks for the short update today. True, it is short, but it offers a quick look at the mothers' perspective. I really want to see what happens to Edward and Bella, so I'll stay over here, waiting on pins and needles for the next chapter.
Date: 19 Aug 2011 2:40 PM Title: Chapter 36
Maybe it will take an accident for Bella to realize that she is loved by many people and that is all that matters. She is making more out of this than she needs to do. She is who she wants to be. She is Bella Cullen because they raised like all children of adoption. She has Swan genes and is lucky enough to know her birth family as well. She is loved by both. She doesn't have to choose. She can love both, but her love will be different. They both just want her to be happy in herself.

I am really torn between calling Bella a whiny bitch and calling her a girl in pain trying to find a happy medium. She is so torn between the two families that I not sure what will help her. Love the story.
Date: 01 Aug 2011 8:22 AM Title: Chapter 35
She cant let go of the fear of losing them all again. It is just so sad but there is rays of sunshine here and there that is a good thing. I just wish she would not push her mom and dad away so hard.
Date: 28 Jul 2011 1:58 AM Title: Chapter 35
bella has alot to deal with. i think with time her relationships will be what happens when not trying. right now they all want so much and att he same time she doesn't know what to be to everyone especially herself. wow
Date: 27 Jul 2011 11:32 PM Title: Chapter 35
I can't believe that's all you have for now! I want to read more. I've been crying at the emotions you pull out of me with every chapter. I read your whole story today and can't wait for you to update again and again.
Date: 27 Jul 2011 1:31 AM Title: Chapter 35
Glad to see you didn't give up on this ... wonderful chapter BTW!
Date: 26 Jul 2011 8:52 PM Title: Chapter 35
cant say i blame bella at all. she is being yanked a bunch of diff ways by too many people. iI think she is handling it fairly well
Date: 26 Jul 2011 8:25 PM Title: Chapter 35
im glad that edward know when she needs to be grounded!
Date: 26 Jul 2011 8:10 PM Title: Chapter 35
I know I keep saying this, but I love your stories. You have an amazing writing ability. thank you for sharing it.
Date: 26 Jul 2011 6:32 PM Title: Chapter 35
Edward always seems to be there when se needs him the most, even when it's not pysically.
Date: 26 Jul 2011 6:31 PM Title: Chapter 35
Bella needs to stop pushing her family away. She needs to realize that the Cullens are her family. They are the ones who love her and who raised her. Like every other adopted child, she has another family who are blood related. If she chooses, she can have them in her life like aunts, uncles and cousins. They will never be like the Cullens because they don't share the same life story. She was raised as a Cullen. Yes, she was taken tragically, but the end result is the same. She is the adopted child of the Cullens. She is no longer a Swan. Her brothers are Jasper and Emmett. Her parents are Esme and Carlisle. This fact will not change. Bella will go crazy trying to figure out why she was stolen or how she ended up at Carlisle hospital. In the big picture it doesn't matter. Bella just needs to decide if she wants the Swans in her life. Bella is making more out of it. She will never not be a Cullen.
Date: 26 Jul 2011 3:16 PM Title: Chapter 35
Goodness sakes alive! Thank goodness for Edward...
Now... I want that chocolate thingy that Charlie and Garrett had. Give up the goods sister! Where can I get one?
*gives puppy eyes and hugs you tight*
Date: 26 Jul 2011 2:44 PM Title: Chapter 35
I think Bella's reaction to Garrett at the end of the chapter was really realistic. Afterall, teenagers without all of Bella's past tragedy struggle with the "who am I" question. I can't imagine how hard this is for her.
There are some legitimate questions. If Tanya sent her picture to every police station for two years AND the Swans were actively trying to find their daughter, how in the world did those ships cross in the night?
I think Charlie and Renee need to back off a little. I realize Renee's reaction to Bella going stiff at her hug was hard, but it was Renee's crying that caused Bella's feelings. If Renee wants to do what's right by her daughter, she needs to get a grip. As hard as it is, all parents ultimately have to let what they love (their children) go free. While Charlie and Renee's situation is unique, in the end they'll have to let Bella have some freedom. Only then will she accept the idea that maybe she can "have it all." It's happened for other adopted children who have birth families and adopted families. Charlie and Renee are the ones complicating this situation.
Thanks for the update. Your Bella continues to valiantly make sense of her confusing world.

Good Chapter.....

I am not to sure I like this Bella she is way to self concious and interested in whaothers think of her.

Poor Bella she is is trying if just the town snoops would leave them alone. Loved it
Date: 22 Jun 2011 7:18 PM Title: Chapter 34
Bella is making progress, but she is a little dramatic. Why didn't they ask for a table that wasn't in the center of the room. Edward would have. He would have made sure she was not the center of attention.
Date: 22 Jun 2011 5:10 AM Title: Chapter 34
well im excited to see what their response is !

Wow that is a big step I am glad she stayed.
Date: 20 Jun 2011 3:35 AM Title: Chapter 34
Poor Bella. Glad Marcus and Edward are there for her.
Date: 17 Jun 2011 9:04 PM Title: Chapter 6
well Bella is almost 18, also, she was legally adopted by the Cullens, so she should be able to stay where she has been most of her life and she could get to know her biological family if she so desires. Charlie is one of her teachers so there will be contact there also, she is already friendly with Ang and Garrett. But what I don't get is why Renee thought that they might be torturing her?
Date: 17 Jun 2011 6:45 PM Title: Chapter 2
So, Garrett and Angela get to be the Swan's now. Is their father Charlie?
Date: 26 May 2011 4:48 PM Title: Chapter 33
I know that Bella is mad at the Swan's,but in a way she should also be happy with them. If it wasn't for them and what happened she would not have her family, the Cullens. Bella needs to think about would she be willing to give up her time with them. If none of this happened she would not have Emmett and Jasper as brothers. She would not have Carlisle and Esme as parents. Some good came out of this tragedy and that is what she needs to concentrate on at this point. She has 2 families. She is tha same Bella she was before she met the Swans. Her heart and soul are the same.
Date: 24 May 2011 7:38 AM Title: Chapter 33

I know that it was a hard day for Bella, but it was actually a very good day.

That was good that she was able to be in the same room with the Swan's and talk to them. All dads are the same LOL.

humm where to start .. well I have read your stories b4 and I like them all. i like this story too.
I see that you like to make Bella waller in her depression (smile) i see very little progression with her ..
SOME but very little.
I guess that is just your writing style ,I guess i am just not one for dragging things out. of course that doesnt mean i will stop reading cause i do see alot of talent in your writing,and enjoy the plot of your story lines.
anyway keep up the writing and plz dont be offended ,, you are a very talented writer.
Date: 13 Apr 2011 12:46 AM Title: Chapter 31
Big steps but still so much confusion and pain she is still lost.
Date: 12 Apr 2011 12:50 PM Title: Chapter 31
Intense chapter. I am afraid for Bella she needs to come to terms with everything before she ends up really hurting herself
Date: 11 Apr 2011 9:58 PM Title: Chapter 31
Really enjoying this story.
I have had a lump in my throat a few times.
Really look forward to the next chapter.
Date: 11 Apr 2011 7:59 PM Title: Chapter 31
I don't think Bella can be trusted alone. She keeps trying to kill herself. She is talking which is good, but she gets overwelmed. She needs to be watched.
Date: 11 Apr 2011 3:14 PM Title: Chapter 31
This was like two steps forward and four back .Where are all the coping skills she is suppose to be learning to deal with this situation?
Date: 10 Apr 2011 4:44 PM Title: Chapter 31
She was trying to get away from the pain that was suffocating her.
I would have jumped in too.
Love it BB!

I Like this str=ory and read every new post but its not getting anywhere ... every new chapters of the same : With bella being depressed and falling out with her family , hurting herself etc. theres no progression
Author's Response:
Thank you, but there is progression. The Bella ten chapters ago would not be sharing her feelings with her family. she would't have sat in that coffee shop and talked with Renee. She never would have let Emmett comfort her. She's asking questions, questions she wasn't prepared to get to ask and she's trying. It just can't be rushed. I know she'd depressed and whiny but she's a teenager who has had her entire life altered. She can't just bounce back to being Happy Bella, especially when there were always those questions lingering under the surface.

It was a hard chapter to read. Loved it
Date: 29 Mar 2011 7:58 PM Title: Chapter 30
Bella finally told Edward she loved him and Emmett finally understand it. Progress has been made in the Cullen household. I think Renee should make a small scrapbook and tell Bella about about her early years. She could make copies of pictures, so she won't loose hers. This would be nonthreatening. Then when Bella is ready they will have a starting point to get a deeper conversation goining.
