LOL, the safe sex on Gilligan's Island discussion was total win.

Okay, never expected Bree to be a dude.  Great job keeping that a secret.  I totally get why Bella is hurt, but I think I also understand Edward's reaction.  He obviously is head over heels for Bella and to actually see her in another guys arms and telling him she loves him has to rip his heart out.   He did say the only thing he will not do is share.

I hope she doesn't do something completely stupid now.

There goes Edward's damn heart again.  You've really got me worried about our Eddie.

Awe, Bella's moment of perfection was so sweet.  I think Edward found the perfect time to actually say the words "I love you" to Bella.  I think the fact that Bella didn't freeze up or freak out says a lot about how much she is really changing and how deep her feelings run for Edward.

For a minute there you had me wondering if Jake was abusive to Bella.  The way she reacted to spilling the wine made me think of someone who was afraid of either getting hit or verbally abused.  Of course seeing Jakes reaction to her and Edward it wouldn't have surprised me.

*sigh* The joys of the spin cycle :)

Okay, meeting Esme wasn't the disaster I was expecting.  Again, thanks for the reality of her not being immediately accepting.  I also like that you aren't having her hating Bella either.

I loved Charlie's reaction.  It was perfect for a dad that's not had his daughter in his life much and one that connected so completely with her ex.  I'm sure Edward seemed out of place in that house and Charlie knew it.  There's no hiding a class difference like that.

Leah and Seth were awesome.

*sigh* Edward is so sweet and totally head over heels for Bella.  I knew Bella wouldn't be able to be without him much longer.

Yay Charlie for stepping up and being the good daddy I knew he could be.  I bet that resolution will help Bella chill out some.

Well, if Jasper was that good I'm surprised the little pixie could keep it to herself.

Ah, the dreaded baby showers.  I'm so glad the people who gave me mine didn't insist on the games.  At least they got enough stuff to not cart things around when Billie stays with grandma and grandpa C.

Now I'm sad because there is no lovely little next button.  I'll just have to have patience and wait for updates.

Oh my damn!  Seems like Bella has gotten to Dr. McHottie.  If this turns out with B&E I can see Bella at least being good for Carlisle and opening him up to the possiblity of a realtionship with someone else.

I like that Charlie is marrying Esme and Carlisle is her brother.  Makes me feel a bit less squicky about Bella and Carlisle.  I already like this fiesty Bella.

I should've known Carlisle would show up at the club.  Lord knows neither one of them would be getting any action in Charlie's house.  Dr McHottie definitely has some good moves.  That was hot and worth the short 4 chapter wait.

Well, hell, I totally called that one wrong.  I fully expected an outraged Charlie.  Luckily Bella's non-panty clad rear wasn't on display for him and Esme.

See, now that's the problem with no strings sex, feelings always get involved and strings automatically appear.  I can't wait for Edward to show up and complicate things :)

I'm absolutely loving Assward.  He is total win!

Wow, I wasn't expecting that secret.  Will learning this secret make Bella look at Edward differently and maybe not be so bitchy to him?

Obviously we aren't done with dinner.  Will there be a battle going on under the table?  I can totally see Carlisle and Edward both trying to grope Bella.  That would be too funny.

Seeing that Carlisle gave up his happiness to keep Edward from feeling the hurt of his mother abandoning him would he do the same and give up Bella if he thought Edward loved her?

Wow.  Well, if it's not love Bella has at least opened Carlisle back up to the possiblity of it.  I wonder if them starting their relationship as sexual will hurt them.  Edward is having to work for any communication he gets from Bella.  Will that make whatever connection they end up with stronger?  I have a feeling the next week when Carlisle goes to Seattle will be interesting.  Especially if Edward is staying in Forks for that time.

So, it seems both of the Cullen men have revealed secrets to Bella that they don't give up to anyone.  I can see Jasper figuring things out pretty damn quick thanks to Alice's little slips.  Edward is still quite the enigma to me.

I think the declarations of love before the fall out was totally necessary.  I think Carlisle might have been a bit more cruel and crass if he wasn't still flying high from the declartion and their activities.

You make it even easier for me to like Carlisle and Bella together by Edward being such an ass.  I was rather shocked that the stopped before they could go to far.  I would love an EPOV to know exactly what was going through his mind during that and after.

Kate is a major bitch.  OMG she deserves to be alone and miserable.

The end of this chapter had me in tears.  Edward broke my heart.  I think what got to me the most was him realizing how in his treatment of his father and Bella he was no better than his mother.  I could totally see Edward holding back in his relationship with Tanya over all of his daddy issues.  This breakthrough could be what it takes for them to have an actual realtionship.  I would love an ending with Bella and Carlisle happily married and Edward happy with Tanya.  OMG, it's so blasphemous for me to want Edward happy with Tanya.  What the hell have you done to me, woman!

Such a great ending.  I love that everyone is happy.  I like the thought of Edward and Angela in this story. 

Again, what have you done to me woman!  I never read and enjoy non-canon.  I usually stop reading when I realize what is going on.  I kept reading in the hopes that Edward and Bella would end up together and I ended up falling in love with your Carlisle and Bella together.  That's quite an accomplishment.

Anyway, that was a great story and I'm telling everyone to read it.

Damn, I like that good guy Edward has such a dirty mouth.  Snarky, bad girl Bella is total win.  I can't wait for our intro to Bella. :)

LOL!  Poor Edward just can't win with Bella.  If he's not keeping Tanya, Lauren, and Victoria off his junk he has to deal with Bella and her attitude and nickname.  I wonder how long it will take Bella to crack his exterior.

*snort* Bella's Army of Darkness.  I love it.

Between Bella's clothes and her unconscious moanings, poor Eddie doesn't stand a chance.

This drinking game is gonna be fun.  Can't wait to see what everyone chooses to say, especially Edward and Bella.

How awesome is it that Edward turned around Lauren's attempt at seduction into blackmail :)  I think the Army of Darkness would be proud of him.

It seems our bad Bella is very inspiring for Edward.  I just wonder if their little groping session will change how she treats him at school.  Will she ignore him tomorrow.

These last 2 chapters were just the thing I needed to unwind from the stress of moving the server.  Thanks for always having funny/sexy chapters.

So glad Bella didn't go all wild in Europe.  I think she handled her time there perfectly.  The tattoos she ended up doing in each country was great.  I like that you have their tattoos have meaning.  There's nothing that irritates me more than someone doing something permanent like that with some stupid little picture.

Anyway, the moment I've been waiting for is coming.  I can't wait to see what they say to each other.

The Bitch Brigade needs to be taken down a notch or two.  Bella and Edward will be together so deal with it ;)

Edward is so awkward at times that it is so freaking adorable.  Can't wait for the date.

Ah, Satan's Mistress at her finest.  Loved it.

Bella telling off the Bitch Brigade was awesome.  Of course Edward backing her up was even better.  I would say that little display made them official.

You ladies had me worried a few times in that chapter.  I started to worry that Bella would actually feel like a whore by Edward dragging her into a room and doing that with her.  Thankfully she didn't.

Of course Edward hearing about the bet had me gasping.  That could've been disastrous.  I really want these 2 together and happy.

Eddie takes directions so well :)

The hospital scene was sweet.  I had not doubts Bella coudl reign in the Bad Girl to enjoyt he kids.

The riding lesson was total win :)  I cringed when they ended up at the rez.  I kept waiting for Jake to show up with Bella deep throating Edward being all pissy and WTF on them.

I'm so happy that B&E are together and happy.  I've read so much wrist slashing angst lately that it's nice to have some sweet and hot new love fluff.  I'm just hoping there is no huge hurt coming.

Alice and Jasper trip me out with their Sub/Dom switching.  I think B&E need to get some payback for their cockblocking actions in the woods.

OMG, I have to leave for work and I don't want to.  I want to read the next chapter.  I knew the fluffy goodness couldn't continue.  I really hate Edward's dad right now.  He needs to run into Charlie's Hells Angels in a dark alley.  WTF is up with that douche.  You can happily run your son's life but you can't even show up to his graduation?!

I'm dying to know what Bella's tattoo is and what Alice gave Edward.  Is Bella pregnant?  That would change everything.  I'll be back in about an hour when I get to work to find out :)

That was the perfect place to end the first part.  I can't wait to see how Daddy Masen takes the news of Edward's new direction with his life.

I honestly don't know how long the friends thing will last.  The two of them are so much in love with each other.  I'm just glad they are talking and working things out :)

Edward is so sweet.  It broke my heart that his mom is dying.

Very interesting that Ethan doesn't talk to many people but he did talk to Bella.

So sad that Bella had to go through all of that.  It's bad enough to have a cheating husband, but to lose a baby 5 months into  a pregnancy is horrible.

I couldn't help but laugh when Edward asked her if she liked to ride Mr.Vanquish.  No double entendre there, huh.  Yeah, us dirty minded old women thought it even if B&E didn't.

The carnival was great.  Edward stopping at Walgreens and buying her cheap crocs, socks and ducks to pretty them us was total win.

I have a feeling the weekend in Forks is gonna be the tear jerker.

Why do I have a feeling that Edward is just as scared and nervous as Bella is.  I figured Rose and Em met when he dropped her off at home. 

The dancing between B&E was so good.  I like that you have her not being clumsy and afriad to dance.  It's nice for a change.

I kept praying it was a dream and not Mike the douche showing up on her darkened doorstep and her not being able to see him thinking it was Edward.  Yeah, hot dreams like that tend to haunt you for days after.

I really liked the playful Edward in this chapter.  I hope he doesn't let Bella's feelings about love and relationships stop him.  I hope he sees it as a challenge and works harder to prove her wrong.

The circus was a great idea.

That was an intense chapter from beginning to end.  You had me all happy that they were finally getting somewhere and then Mike attacks.  I really don't like that douche.  Edward was so good to her at New Year's.  You had me bawling by the end of the chapter with Esme's death.  Edward was so destroyed it was heartbreaking.  I hope Bella doesn't think his admission was due to grief and alcohol.  I think it was geniuine.

That was so not fair.  I was bawling mye eyes out while Bella poured her heart out to Esme at the cemetary.  I got all happy over the wonderful gifts Edward had delivered and the songs.  I was happily riding my love high and then boom.  You leave me there.  It is time to leave and I have to endure the ride home wondering WTH happened to Edward.  This is such torture.

You have done an amazing job writing this story and drawing me in emotionally.  Now I'll suffer through my 45 minute commute wondering what happened to Edward.

The journal entries were an awesome idea for this chapter.  It was nice to really get into Bella's head.  I'm sad that I've caught up and don't have another chapter to go right to.

Interesting back stories on everyone.  I'm wondering if Alice's secret will ever be revealed and how Bella will take it.  It's nice to have Bella and Jake with a relationship that is that close but not romantic.  It's easier for me to enjoy when I don't have to grumble and groan over Jake pining after Bella.

Nice to meet Dr. Whitlock and Dr. McCarty.  I like the way you are going with more traditional vampire lore.  Makes it different from most of the other stories out there.

My heart was breaking for Bella when Edward sent back that angry response after she told the truth.

I'm afraid to know how she's going to prove it.

Oh snap!  Eddie just dropped a major bomb on Bella. What a way to ruin a perfectly great evening.  I'm so glad I don't have to wait for an update to see how this revelation is taken by Bella.

Great job with writing their love making.  It was sweet and sexy without being vulgar. That is hard to find in this fandom (and trust me I'm guilty of vulgarity).

Very interesting chapter.  It's nice to get more background on Jasper.  I can see the wheels turning in Edward's head.  He's thinking he might be able to live on a diet of vamps rather than humans if he changes.  I have a feeling that it isn't a good idea to live on vamps alone.

It still kills me to read that happen to Edward.  He's so young and I just want him and Bella to have a happy, perfect, healthy life.

Thank god I didn't have big brothers like Emmett and Edward!

Oh shit!  Now you've really got me wondering what the hell is going on.  Human James must be really freaking the hell out of Bella right about now.  So many possiblities.  Is it bad that I really want either Edward or Carlisle to swoop in and save Bella from James?

LOL, human Edward gave Bella a hickey.  Lord knows she never thought she'd have to worry about Edward sucking on her neck.  Yes, Carlisle, Bella liked it and wants Edward to do it again ;)

I totally love this story and I'm so excited that you post it here on TWCS.  Can't wait for the next chapter.

I'm gonna miss Alice.  I loved her and Bella sharing their future inside jokes.  Reading about her trying all kinds of new food was fun too. 

I just knew James wouldn't go away that easily.  He always tends to linger and be a pain in the ass.  I knew the hankie would be a problem I just didn't think about it implicating Edward in anything.  I figured it would be something to cause problems between Edward and Bella.

I can't wait for the talk with Carlisle :)

I loved the fluff in this one!  It was great.  I just knew Bella would cave first.  She loves Edward too much and I honestly couldn't see her fighting him too long.  Who could resist him when his lips on on you like that and saying things like wanting to fall asleep and wake up with you everyday and make love to you every night.  Hello, major swoon!

I'm glad they stopped before they went too far.  I have a feeling they both would've regretted it.  I think it might have messed with Edward's head really bad.

I still can't decide what's really going to happen with all of this.  I'm torn between her and Edward living a happy human life together and Edward still getting the flu and being changed but having the knowlege that he and Bella will be reunited in the future.  With that last scenario I can see it turning out that it would prevent him from leaving her in New Moon and not being so reluctant to change her eventually.

I'm so glad I have a second chapter to go right to after reading the end of this one.

LOL!  I loved them getting caught by the police in the park.

Yay for a great dress!  It is so Bella.  At least Elizabeth and Samantha listened to what she wanted.

I just knew Eleanor wouldn't give her a conventional wedding gift.  I love that she goes against the norm.  Bella really needed that relationship in that time.

I wanted to punch the cop too.  That situation was sad but so true to the times.  At least it gave Bella the reason for the break from the hospital she needed.

I can't wait for the wedding chapter.  I just wonder if it will go off without a hitch.  This is Bella we're talking about so you can't assume it will be perfect ;)

i'm so torn.  I love human Edward Masen and he and Bella are good together but I still miss vampire Edward Cullen at times.  I'm starting to wonder if somehow Bella gets the flu and dies from it and begs Carlisle to change Edward so he'll be there for her in the future.  That could be very interesting.

This chapter broke my heart.  Seeing Edward suffer through losing his dad and his mother's illness was so sad.  I'm dying to see how the transfusions turned out.
