Edward's dreeam is so sweet.
Best Part:
yet with Bella, I can't stop thinking about what we could have. How stunning she will look on our wedding day, watching Bella as my bride, slowly walking down the aisle towards me, dressed in white. The way her haircut splayed out on the pillow as we make love for the first time as man and wife. Our children... our grandchildren. Bella and myself sitting on our porch together, old and gray.

I was just on my Facebook account and I can assure you that the only responses I ever get is when I add photos of my Siamese cats, then instantly my friends take notice and I get "like" pressed about 10 or 15 times and several Ooohs and Ahhhs.. I tell a joke..comment on a movie and am lucky to get 1 or 2 comments. Where's Edward? It sucks to be me! He sounds devine, I hope Esmee can use duck tape on her Mom and other son..*sigh*. Edward took that like a man, a good man.
Date: 18 Sep 2010 5:41 PM Title: Chapter 12
Best Parts:
I was moved to a private room to wait for Alice. She stayed with me and held me whilst we both cried.
My daughter, Sophie Charlie Swan was born the next evening after an eight hour labor. I had to be induced. She was perfect at just twenty three weeks and four days of pregnancy and weighed one pound and three ounces. She even had a little dark hair and tiny fingernails. I held her for hours and the nurses allowed her to stay with me overnight in a tiny handmade Moses basket. They gave me tiny donated clothing and I bathed and dressed her. She looked like me. I couldn’t even see any of James in her features at all.
Alice, Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie joined Charlie and my mom and Phil in Forks as we stood on La Push beach. Jacob came along too but he stood further back and just watched as we shared a sad moment as I emptied the tiny amount of ashes of my daughter into the ocean and watched her float away. My mom bit back sobs and released a pink foil balloon. Alice and Rosalie dropped pale pink roses into the water. Charlie was silent and didn’t let go of my hand.
I watched my family disperse and I looked out into the ocean and the setting sun.
“Good bye Sophie. I love you.”
Date: 18 Sep 2010 5:38 PM Title: Chapter 13
Best Parts:
“I am so pleased I did. She was just so beautiful… and the hospital were wonderful. They gave me clothes for her and a basket. I have photographs of us together and hand and foot prints… even the tiny hospital band she had to wear around her ankle when she was with me overnight.”“Would you like to see? I understand if you don’t want to.”
Edward moves away slightly and looks deep into my eyes. “I would love to see Sophie, Bella. I would be honoured.”
I jump up and walk to my bedroom kicking my heels off in the process. I keep Sophie’s things in a small pink wooden box. As well as the few precious photos I have, the hospital gave me a knitted shawl to wrap her in – I took it home with me. I bring the box to Edward and sit it on the coffee table.
He spends several minutes looking at my pictures. Some are just of Sophie wrapped up warm; others are of me holding her to my chest. My eyes puffy but I was trying to look like a happy and proud mother.
“She’s so beautiful Bella. You should be so proud of her. I mean that.” He tells me earnestly, fingering the tassels of the edge of Sophie’s blanket gently.
“I want to do something special for you… something special for Sophie, if you will let me Bella? She is so precious that she deserves to be remembered. Will you let me?”

It's a pain which never goes away. It was the anniversary of the day I lost and gave birth to my twin sons on Sunday just past, and although it gets "easier" - it will never leave and you'll never forget x

I just found your story and I am really enjoying it. At first I wasn't sure about how fast their relationship developed, especially with Bella's history. The more I read and thought it over it just kind of works for them. Edward has been in love with the idea of Bella a long time and now that he really knows her it seems natural that they are close so quickly. I think Edward will give Bella a chance to explain, and I don't see him turning his back on her given how close they are. Yes I am sure his feelings will be hurt that she hasn't confided in him about everything, but she needs the comfort and care only he can give her. Not to mention that they have only been together a week. No one should be expected to share all their secrets without complete trust in the other person, and Bella has major trust issues. Edward seems like the kind of guy who would support her no matter what, and I just can't see him being harsh with her- knowing her history with abuse. But that is just speculation on my part since you are the mastermind behind this lovely read.
Date: 14 Sep 2010 5:19 PM Title: Chapter 11
Damn Em and his big mouth! I really don't think Edward will care that she hasn't told him yet... I mean come on they have only been together for a week! He souldn't over react. I am really hoping he doesn't just let her tell her story and be there for her! I am also thinking that B&E may adopt that little boy they were talking about earlier later in the story :)
Date: 14 Sep 2010 4:01 PM Title: Chapter 11

Great chapter! You might be missing quote marks in the story where it says:
explain to Esme? I have been through something similar to you. Just after Carlisle and I got married.
Is the part starting with - I have been through . . . Esme speaking? It seems as though it must be. It's just a little typo, but I thought you'd want to know.

Author's Response:
It's not my first lemon - but it was my first "All Human" Bella and Edward. I've done them in my "canon vamp/Twilight" stories and I recently wrote one for a friend which was a different pairing (Bella and Carlisle) but the whole "human" Bella and Edward thing had me worried as there are SO many of them out there, I didn't want it to sound identical to all the others I read on a daily basis :-) x

i love your story so far hopefully bella isn't too messed up after what went down with james. Jacob may be a little too mike ish with his lost puppy routine,heres hopeing he stays far from bella and doesn't take a stalker's look on things happening in bellas private life,,can't wait to see what happens at the reunion,,i bet there will be a few slacked jaws when these two walk in,YAY.! Will there be scankerellas trying to get their claws into our poor edward?don't won't want to know to much obviously,really can't wait for next up-date,thanks, bye .cheryl.
Author's Response:
Sorry for the delay in replying to your lovely Review. Jacob is annoying isn't he? But don't worry, although he is a bit like a puppy, he's only looking out for Bella. He is aware of the WHOLE situation with James and has been a wonderful support for Bella, as you will discover in future chapters. But I don't want to give anything more away. He will be trying to get her though because he honestly does have feelings for her. My Bella isn't as dumb as SM's in Eclipse though, because after all, there IS no choice between Edward and Jacob.
Thanks so much for reviewing. I'm glad you are enjoying my story.
