I think his parents should be shot!!!  Who lets their son walk to school in weather like that?   And they took everything from him too.    And he didn't even do anything wrong.   When is the madness going to end?



Author's Response:

I know his parents are CRAZY! My in laws were like that with my hubby when we were in high school, just completely irrational in everything they did. Sadly most of these "punishments" and what not I'm not making up. I hope you can stick with me until the crazies are out of the picture lol

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

I think Edward's not thinking clearly for going back to that house.   Six months is a long time to live with people who control your every move and tell you that you never should have been born.   Eventhough Carlisle didn't physically hurt him, verbal abuse can do damage just the same.  



Author's Response:

I agree, verbal abuse is just as damaging. Keep in mind though, this isn't Carlisle. It's Edward Sr. Carlisle will be in the story later :)

I'm glad Officer Dan believed Edward and tried to help him.  Hopefully he'll be able to keep the phone Renee gave him away from his parents. Eighteen can't come soon enough for poor Edward.

He needs to get a good lock on his door and stay away as much as possible the next 6 months. His parents are crazy, but at least the police now know they are. They will kind of keep an eye on things. It is there job and they are Swan's friends.

I know I keep saying this, but Edward needs to get away from his parents = NOW!!!   Only a few months to go or not, the situation is only getting worse.   It's only a matter of time before something happens.   I've said it before and I'll say it again - I think he needs to stay at Bella's house.  Believe me, once Charlie and Renee hear about what happened, they'll welcome him with open arms.  



Author's Response:

Poor Charlie (and Bella and Renee).  I hope he'll be able to fight this off now that he's in the hospital.  Thank goodness Edward found Bella and got her to the hospital.

Wow, Edward's parents have sunk even lower now.  Reporting him, for what?  I'm assumin they said he assaulted his father.  Maybe this will turn out to be a good thing.  Maybe his parents will have to take responsibility for the abuse they've thrown out at him.

Looking forward to the next chapter.  I can't wait to find out what happens next!

Author's Response:

Hey!

Wow, thanks again for taking the time to review! Yes, with a bone marrow transplant you do take on the traits. I'm not sure if you do with other transplants. My dad had to go through this and they warned us of exactly that. He would receive her allergies and what not... kind of interesting. I hope you like the rest of the story!

it is too bad that poor eddie doesn't know how to deal with adult/parental affection and caring. my 'extra kid' had issues like that when he first came to stay with us, we loved him, showed him routine and rules, and he thrived. but it was really hard for him after we had him for 4 months and his mom made him go home and he lost all of that. he still knows that we are here for him whenever the need is there. it sucks that kids have to live like this and it is amazing what happens to them when the are treated with love and respect.

as you can see this really touches close to my heart.

 

i hope charlie pulls through.

OH lord, this can't be good, this thing with Charlie.   I really hope he's going to be okay, but I just have this feeling that he's not.   And what happened with Edward?   He never called Bella back or came over.   I just hope that things are going okay over at his house.   Six more months or not, I say Edward needs to get out of there already.  It's certainly not going to improve.

I thought that was very sweet what Edward and Jasper did for Charlie - shaving their heads and all.   Very nice.   And I'm also happy that Edward and Bella had time together as well.   He needs her more than ever, just cuz of his sad and twisted home life.   After every chapter, I just feel so bad for him.   His family is terrible to him and he doesn't do anything to deserve it.   They treat Emmett like royalty and really he's the one that starts all the trouble.

Yeah, Emmett sure is a great friend - NOT!!!   I'm sorry, but whether he's jealous of Edward or not, you just don't go around making those kind of accusations about somebody, especially if you know they are not true.   That's just downright mean.   And how embarrassing was that for Bella - to prove that Edward wasn't abusing her?   Emmett should really be ashamed of himself, but knowing him, he just looks at it as another way for his parents to look down at Edward.   Edward needs to get out of that house - now!!!

Well, Edward's family is certainly a piece of work.  I want to feel bad for Emmett's hurt feelings, but with the way he's treating Bella and being so childish and vindictive with Edward, I just can't.  It's amazing that Edward is as caring as he is given what he's come from.  I'm so glad Bella has his support through this.  It's looking like she's going to be leaning on him even more soon.  I'm really hoping Charlie will eventually be okay.  He's just such a great guy and an awesome dad.

I think Edward needs to get out of that house and away from those people.   I won't even call them family, cuz they sure don't act like it.   He's the only sane one in there.   I think that before this story is said and done, I have a feeling he's going to be staying at Bella's.   Renee is a good mother and she has now seen what Edward has to put up with and has already told him that if he needs anything, to let her know.   I'm thinking he may end up taking her up on that idea.   

And I'm very glad that Bella has Edward to lean on; I have a feeling she's going to be leaning on him a lot more pretty soon.

You CAN'T just leave it there! UPDATE! lol

I feel so sorry for Charlie ... and Renée ... and Bella ... and Edward ... and Emmett. Really, I feel bad for them all lol. Edward and Emmett have to deal with so much with their messed up parents and the rivalry between them whereas Charlie, Renée and Bella have to deal with Charlie's cancer. :( It's so sad.

Anyways, I loved how you depicted the side affects of the chemo. It was very raw and realistic.

Emmett is such a jerk in this chapter! I mean, I can see his reasoning - he's always been second best to his football-crazed father because he doesn't play it, and he's always been jealous of Edward. So yeah I'd be pissed too. AND if that's not enough, now Edward's stolen his girl Bella. If I was him, I would probably react the same way. So on that level, I can understand it. BUT on the other hand, Emmett knows how sick Charlie is. He might be bitter now but even though he's angry, he can't just ignore the severity of Charlie's illness. Maybe he didn't consider that the reason Edward was out so late migh be because of Charlie and just thought they (Edward and Bella, not Edward and Charlie. lol) were rolling around in Edward's Volvo or something lol So he wanted to get Edward in trouble.

But still, even though I sympathise with him (and although, this review doesn't sound like it, really like him) he's such a douche!

Anyways, I hope you update soon because I'm going crazy thinking about what could have happened. I'm guessing that either -

  1. The results show that Charlie isn't responding to the treatment
  2. The results show that Charlie's cancer has spread
  3. The results show that Charlie's cancer is terminal/too advanced to be "cured" and the only thing the doctors can do for him is put him under a different treatment to "prolong" his life, instead of "curing" it like they were originally doing with the chemo.
  4. Charlie got really ill during the night

Oh, I can't wait to find out what's wrong with Charlie!

Thanks for the great update btw :)



Author's Response:

Hey! What a review! :) 

I'm sorry about the cliffie but you will learn all about Charlie in the next chapter. I agree too, I would be upset if I were Emmett but he is not acting very stable :(

I knew Emmett was not going to take it well but grow up man and then to be such a pussy with his mommy covering his ass.  Edward knows how to man up and would his mom just jump off it would be one thing if she was concerned instead of just wanting to control.  Poor Charlie it is hard to see a man that has always been so strong to show weekness just found out today my dad has cateracts.

Thank you for reviewing! 

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad, it's not fun to see a family member go through health problems :(

I think Emmett just ruined his longstanding friendship with Bella by being an idiot and I really don't see her forgiving him anytime soon. 



Author's Response:

Thank you for reviewing! Yes, Emmett is an idiot! lol 

I hope you like the next chapter :)

Poor Bella!  I understand that Emmett's upset, but that's no excuse for treating Bella so terribly.  Especially considering what a rough day it's been with her dad's illness.  Edward and Emmett's mom is definitely a bitch in my opinion.

Looking forward to reading more!

Thanks for reviewing! Yeah, Emmett is not very nice in this story :(

I knew Jasper was going to put his foot in his mouth but we all know that Alice will fix his Ass.  I am happy they had a nice time and Edward impressed the parents.  Shit is going to hit the fan with Emmett so sad.

I am loving this story!  You are a wonderful writer.  I am really curious as to why Edward and Emmett seem to hate each other so much...hopefully you'll clear that up soon...it's driving me crazy.

Keep up the good work!  Waiting anxiously for the next update :-)

I'm glad Bella was able to have a nice time at the dance.  Edward seems so sweet.  It's nice that she was able to have a good time and not think about Charlie's illness for a little bit.  I really hope Charlie will be okay.

I'm looking forward to Emmett's reaction to Bella and Edward being together, althought it doesn't sound like he's going to be too happy about it.

Oh my, Edward and Jasper are quite the hotties in this story ;)


I feel kind of bad for Emmett. If I was Emmett, I would be raging too if my bestfriend - and possibly, maybe, the girl I was crushing on / thought was hot - was going out with my (in my opinion) asshole brother. lol


I love your characterisation of Jasper. I hope he doesn't completely take a 180 when he meets Alice and immediately becomes like the perfect boyfriend, as I've read in many fanfictions. I'm hoping that him and Alice will get together (of course) eventually but that he doesn't completely change his whole behaviour and personality overnight. But I'm sure you've already got that covered (:


I especially loved this line - 

'“Not try to sleep with her? Why the fuck would I not do that?” he asked, shocked, as if I had told him not to breathe the whole night.'


Yeah, that made me LOL.


Also, from what we've seen of Edward so far, I'm absolutely clueless how wrong Emmett is about Edward! From what I've seen of him so far, he seems pretty much perfect  (No, that's not right as that would be kinda insulting you since good authors don't want to create "perfection") perfectly flawed (which is a big compliment). And hot. Very very VERY hot.


I can't decide if I like or hate (in a good way - not in a "he's such a pansy" hate) the fact that he's a bit of a pussy when it comes to his mother. Love it. I'm hoping that when Edward and Bella get closer, she'll help him stand up to her and Edward Sr.


Oh! I can't wait until the dance and Emmett's reaction. Hopefully the former will happen before the latter though LOL


Update soon please (:

Author's Response:

I am really glad that you seem to be enjoying the story! No worries btw, I have no plans to change who Jasper is. Well his man whore ways maybe, but not who he is :) 

I agree with your comment about being "perfectly flawed" I try hard to walk the line between too perfect and too not lol. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to review. I hope you like the next chapter, I plan to have it out Sunday :)

Cant wait for the dance.  Jasper is in for a suprize. Why is Edwards mom so controling is it because his dad controls everything she does.



Author's Response:

Thank you for reviewing! Edward's dad is really not that controlling compared to the mom, he is just an angry, unhappy man and tends to make everyone around him that way as well including the mom. His mom you will learn is just controlling for the hell of it, she feels the need to be in control of everything. They are a very dysfunctional family :/ I hope you like the next chapter :)

Good chapter.  It's a shame Edward's parents don't trust him since it doesn't sound like he's ever done anything to not be trusted.  I'm glad Charlie agreed without much trouble.  I'm sure Emmett will find out at some point.  I hope it doesn't ruin their friendship.  Looking forward to seeing how the dance goes!

Edward's parents are weird, checking up on him to make sure he's telling the truth.    He's basically a good kid, but his own mother doesn't believe him about the school dance?  That's pretty sad.   At least she was okay with his plans, though.

Great chapter.  I can't wait to see how their date goes, although I'm sure Emmett will be pissed when he finds out.  It's nice that Edward isn't the jerk Emmett says he is.  It makes me very curious about why things are so strained in that family.  Looking forward to the next update!

Aw, I like Edward and Bella together; he's already starting to act differently just being around her.   Emmett, though, I don't know what to make of him.   I can't believe that he lied and said that Bella said something bad about him when she didn't say it.   That was just not right.  And Bella wasn't happy to hear it, either.   I'm looking forward to more Edward and Bella time.

I'm really looking forward to see where you go with this story. I love the plot and they way it's written. You're a great writer!

I hope Charlie's cancer doesn't get worse :( That would be so sad, if Charlie's body rejected the chemo... I love the way you portrayed Bella though - very realistic and you make it easy for the reader to connect and sympathise with her.

I can't wait to read more Edward/Bella interaction! Also, to find out about the family dynamics in the Cullen household. I'm especially curious about why Emmett hates Edward so much and why their parents - especially Edward Sr. - are acting the way they are. I feel kind of sorry for Emmett with Edward Sr. putting so much attention on Edward, and of course Edward as well for the grief he's getting from Edward Sr.

Looking forward to Edward POV next chapter so please update soon :)



Author's Response:

Thank you so much for reading and taking the time to review. In EPOV next chapter you will learn a lot more about everything with Emmett, Edward and their family. After that chapter you will get a lot more Edward and Bella interaction :) I hope to have chapter 5 up Wednesday, I hope you like it!

It's nice that Bella was able to have some fun and not think about reality for a little while. 

From Emmett's reaction, it looks like he just noticed that Bella's a girl.  I wonder what will happen with that.
