Date: 14 Mar 2010 Title: Chapter 7: He's So Yummy
"But he's so yummy, yummy and he tickles my tummy." Okay, I think I wet my pants with that one. I love Bella in this story. I feel as though if Kristen Stewart would play Bella as herself, this is what we would get. I also have to thank you for "word vomit." I have gladly added that to my repertoire. It goes along nicely with my own personal favorite verbal diarrhea--when people just talk and talk without stopping. You know, it is a true parasitic virus! I wish they would make some meds for that one :)
Author's Response:
They have too much fun watching us stumble and fall all overselves to make meds to stop it! And I will have to find a way for Bells to use your version. In fact, I feel an Emmett / Bella conversation coming on right now. Mwuhahahaha!
Date: 30 Mar 2010 Title: Chapter 10: Moment of Perfection
I continue to extremely enjoy the banter back and forth between these two. I like how they have both decided to just let go and feel. It's better in the long run to just enjoy it while it is happening. You can't go back. So I see that you like to incorporate music into your stories. While riding in the car the other day, one of my fav songs from my high school times played. I couldn't help but envision the guys singing this one to Alice, Bella, and Rose. Now I am about to totally date myself, but I am hoping you've heard it. Check it out--Mr. Big, To Be With You. A little cheesy, but it could make for a cute scene while sitting around the house playing. Anyway, great job and more please!
Author's Response:
Oh, boy! I'm gonna date myself too ... I can remember when that song broke out and every guy in high school was making sure to play that for his girl. LOL I love it and I have a chapter in mind that I can use it for you. If I do, I'll make sure to give you a shout-out!! As you know from all of my stories, My-Bella is all about bringing on the cheese!
Date: 05 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 11: Angry Men and Farfegnugen
Farfegnugen=far from pukin'...blech, JD shots? I think I'd be in Edward's predicament. His poor head. Just put your foot on the floor to stop the spinning.
I love that Jacob is more like the kid brother here and not a love interest. I feel for him. I know all to well what it is like to lose your father at a young age, and even after 12 years, it doesn't feel better. You stop dwelling over it daily, but it isn't better. I look forward to reading about his reunion with Bree. I think that it will be good for him. I hope all goes well :)
A side thought--Bree with a very drunk Emmett would be HILARIOUS!!! Oh, and I LOVE your Pavlovian response. Alice, salivating at the thought of planning anything. I need her at my house to plan birthday parties.
Author's Response:
Hmmn ... Bree with a drunken Emmett ... I will have to bring that to the table and see what EA thinks of it. There are so many ways it could go both wrong and right.
Date: 13 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 12: I'm Not Afraid of You
Well....hrmph! I can't believe you left us hanging like that!!! Thanks for the great build up with no climax ;) I'll forgive you as long as you post the date very soon!! All joking aside, this was another great chapter. I do love seeing Alice's POV. I can only imagine what Mr. Romantic has planned for his Bella. So excited!!!
Author's Response:
Woah ... You can't just toss out lines like that around WTB Bella!! (build up with no climax) She gets all silly, crazy with replies. Uh oh ... She's reading over my shoulder ... No, we are not saying that to a sweet, kind reviewer, Bella. No, Emmett. We aren't saying that either ... Sigh! Gonna be a long night.
Date: 19 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 13: You Got My Head Spinnin
Oh Wow...I think I have a toothache that was so sweet! Okay, where do I get my own? Sign me up :) I wonder if Bella will be able to stay in her own bed tonight, or will she make another trip to see her Edward? Another wonderful chapter in a great story. So....what's next???
Author's Response:
LOL! Yeah, if I knew where to sign up, I'd definitely share with all of you!! Bella will be staying in her own bed, but not because she wants to. There's going to be a small bump in the road before we get to Thanksgiving and the meeting of the parents.
Date: 02 May 2010 Title: Chapter 15: All I Needed
Wooooh sister girl! *fans herself vigorously* You have me sweating like a sinner in church with all that!! I think I am going to need a nice glass of iced tea to calm myself down after that delicious little morsel of information. I totally expect to see a tattoo scene in our future, PLEASE!!!!!! I just have all sorts of yummy thoughts running through my mind with that and his calloused hands from playing his bass...oh, where it could go from there. *wipes up a bit of excess salivation* On a funny note, Bree cracks me up! I literally had tears coming down my face when he was messing with Emmett. Thanks for making my Saturday!
Author's Response:
I do promise there is a tattoo scene in the future. There will also be a scene where Bella finds out she has a bit of a tattoo fetish her ownself. Best part for you lucky readers - those will be two seperate chapters.
I am so glad you guys are embracing Bree. He means a lot to Bella and will be a major cheerleader in her corner.
Date: 01 Jun 2010 Title: Chapter 19: Drive
I'm going to talk about a couple of chapters since I haven't reviewed the past few. Someone needs to get this site to come up with a mobile version or an iPhone app so I can review from my phone. My hubby commandeers the PC most of the time, so I don't have access to the review option.
Anywhoo...LOVED the meadow and how they are opening up to each other. I have yet to read anything that warrants WTB Bella being so hard on herself, but I suppose that is just her character. She gets herself so worked up and I keep expecting for her to say that she's pretty much murdered someone, and then her truths come out and I have to giggle a bit for her being so uptight about it. I love the fact that Edward takes it all in stride and is not allowing her to run. You can see how much he truly loves her. I felt like my heart was going to break for him if he had to spend Christmas away from her. I would have done exactly what he did and got in the car to go and get her.
I am, however, very nervous about this ball. More so because WTB Bella has her mind made up that she is just going to royally fuck it all up. She's her own worst enemy! Please let her know that I have total faith that she will knock it out of the park and charm the pants off everyone. Looking forward to Saturday for another yummy update!
Author's Response:
You said it exactly ... She's her own worst enemy! We all are to some degree. We all have things in our past that seem so huge and insurmountable to us, but not to others. And that's where Bella's head is at right now. She still feels so much guilt over her past that she expects people to find it as horrible as she did when she went through those times. She's not yet used to people understanding her. But Edward's willing to get her there if she can let him.
Edward Cullan is the hottest movie star. Bella Swan is an art grad, in Italy for the summer. Their worlds collide in the most unlikely way. He unlocks what she has hidden for so long - a dark side...

WOWZA!!! I don't mind the longish chapters at all. My husband would also like to thank you for adding to my already questionable imagination ;) Thanks for a great story.
Lonesome and second-guessing his career as a baseball player, Edward never imagined that it would only take one foul ball to turn his world upside down. That he might possibly find everything he had ever dreamt of, everything that had been missing in his life. Would he embrace it, or would he strike out, never knowing true love?
Special thanks to NoelleSeven for the awesome banner she made me.

Okay...I am not going to scream or throw anything at you, because I have faith that this is NOT going to be a big deal and that you ARE going to be posting a new chapter saying that stress caused this. A few days of bedrest and Bella is going to be fine. I will, however, say that I saw this coming and NOT COOL! Please fix it. I can't stand for my heart to be broken.
Author's Response:
I would never break your heart or Edward and Bella's. Glad you like the story. Thanks for reading and reviewing. Now hurry and go check out the new chapter!
Date: 11 Mar 2010 Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Black and Blue
YAY!!! Oh I am so glad you posted this. I have been checking daily to see that Bella and Jr. would be okay! Please make sure to have Jacob's punishment really good. I think maybe a "rehab" assignment down in AAA would be a good little ego crusher ;)
Author's Response:
Your reviews just make me smile for ear to ear!!! So glad you love my story. You must be reading my mind. A little time in the minors is just one of the things I have instore for him. Be patient I am about to post the next chapter and it might seem at first that he is getting just a smack on the hand. But Edward's attorney is going to make Jake squirm just a bit for what he did.
I have another story that I am co-suthoring with My Bella and it is called Worth the Burn. I think you might really like it as well so check it out if you can.
Thanks bunches for reading and reviewing!!!

Date: 14 Mar 2010 Title: Chapter 29: Chapter 29 Finding Balance In Life
Another fantastic chapter! I think what happened to Jake is a good penalty from the team. It was realistic, and personally, I would die if someone fined me that amount of money. I am sure that Jake isn't done for just yet and something wicked will probably be coming this way :) I look forward to the next chapters and especially seeing Alice be Alice for the wedding and parties! I wish I had her energy.
Author's Response:
You are right!! Not quite done with Jake yet, but it will still be kept realistic. I couldn't imagine being fined that amount of money either. Gosh I wish I had just half of Alice's energy. LOL
Thanks for the great review. I am glad you are continuing to enjoy the story. I am writing just as fast as I can to get the next chapter done. The wedding is coming soon. Not this next chapter, but probably the one after that.
Date: 30 Mar 2010 Title: Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Running Towards The Finish Line
Great justice for Jacob! Now, just trade him far away. Maybe L.A. or even Japan? The cradle is SO sweet! What a great tradition to pass down through the family. I surely hope that Alice can make it another four weeks, and she doesn't go into labor in the middle of the ceremony. (That was my sister's biggest fear during her wedding. She lovingly threatened me and the life of my child if I did that.) Getting pumped about the big day and more importantly the honeymoon!
Author's Response:
Ha, what a great idea. I hadn't even thought about trading his ass away. That would be good. Glad you liked the cradle. It is a real cradle and tradition inmy family. Yes Alice is getting rather close to popping. Iam sure you know just as I do that those last few weeks are the worst. However, I can promise it won't take place during the wedding.
I am excited about their big day too!! I am about 3/4 of the way through with the chapter and I hope it goes comes out in words the way I have been envisioning it for a long time. as far as the honeymoon goes, I so wish I could go with them. The pictures I have stumbled upon in doing the research for their honeymoon are just gorgeous.
Ok time to get back to the wedding so I can get it posted for you all to read. Thanks fro reading and reviewing!!!
Date: 03 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Our Time Begins Now
FABULOSITY!!! I adore it. The vows were so touching, and everything was just wonderfully romantic. I have to admit that I would kill to be Bella in that carriage with that particular Edward Cullen. Edward Cullen as a baseball player. You pegged me! Okay, now get to writing so we can see Greece!!! Happy Easter :)
Author's Response:
Hi there, I will admitt right along with you that I am right there with you in wanting to be with him in that carriage. Hell I love this Edward no matter where he is. He is quite yummy as a baseball player. I am so glad that you liked this chapter so much. I have been afraid that I wouldn't be able to put the vision I had in my head into words. So I am thrilled that it has turned out so well.
I am already working on the honeymoon. I have spent quite a while checking out lots of things for them to do. I so wanna go with them. Can yo imagine a Greecian resort villa with a glass retractable ceiling over the bed? Well you better start doing it because that is exactly where Edward is taking his new bride for the first week of their honeymoon. The second week they will be in another part of Greece.
If you want another baseball Edward story to read and you have a fanfic account, check out the story Whatever It Takes by NoelleSeven, and also The Fan by Pears13. I promise they are both awesome!!
Date: 20 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 32: Chapter 32 Greece Is The Word
Totally awesome! My husband has actually been all over Greece and keeps saying that one day he'll get me on a plane over an ocean. (I say not without a few xanex). I might have to look into this resort :) On a side note, a friend of mine saw a bumper sticker the other day that said, "Drive like a Cullen." I have to get one. I think it'll look funny on a suburban though, but hey, who cares ;)
Date: 16 May 2010 Title: Chapter 34: Chapter 34 New Arrival
UH OH!! Is Rose pregnant again?!?!?! That would be something major to deal with! I just hope it isn't something bad like a trade or family sickness. As always you keep me smiling with all the happy thoughts. I'm surprised that everyone wanted to watch the birth. I think I'd be a little shy about the world checking out my who-ha as I pushed out my kid. I couldn't even watch that one. I preferred to think of it in its pristine pre-baby condition. Hope to read more soon :)
Author's Response:
Hmm, you know you are the only one who has asked that about Rose. ;) You know I am with you on not having all those peeps watching me while I squeeze someting the size of a watermelon out something the size of a lemon. LOL I never watched mine either. Just posted an update so I can't wait to hear form ya. Sorry it took me so long to respond.

Date: 23 May 2010 Title: Chapter 35: Chapter 35 World Champions
WOW!! You finally traded away Jacob! *Happy dance time* I can't believe that the Cards won the World Series right after Edward left. That stinks, but that is life. He was a major contributing force to that team and their accomplishments for a while, so even though he doesn't have a ring, he should claim a small portion of that victory.
Poor Edward and his obvious manness. He's in for it. Every guy should be taught not to mess with a pregnant woman. When they ask you to jump, you say with major enthusiasm, "How high??" Someone needs to get out the stopwatch and start timing Bella's contractions b/c she is about to have that baby! I can't wait!!!
Author's Response:
Yep Jake is gone for good!!!! I know the team winning the World Series now sucks for Edward, but I did it this way to show that by him being happy for Emmett and the team, he really is happy with his choice to retire and move on from baseball. I hope that helps ya understand why I did it that way.
Yep Edward is a man and they are very big lunkheads sometimes. They will work it out eventually and he will explain himself.
Thanks for reading!!
Date: 01 Jun 2010 Title: Chapter 36: Chapter 36 It's Time!
Holy crap she had the baby on her bed! WITHOUT an epidural. :O I would have died of a panic attack. I'm happy everything turned out alright. As much as giving birth outside of a hospital scares me, it was very touching and emotional to read about Edward delivering the baby. How many men can say they have done that? I look forward to seeing how they handle a newborn at home. Thanks for a great chapter!
Author's Response:
Hi there, Sorry it has taken me so long to respond. I've been super busy with real life. Yep she sure did. I have to admit that although I didn't have any of my kids at home, I did have them WITHOUT and epidural. Not gonna say it didn't hurt cause it sure as hell did, but I was more afraid of having a super long needle in my spine. Yes I know that makes me super crazy!!
But yeah I thought that it would be a very touching and emotional way for little Zachary to come into the world. Not to mention what a bond Edward will share with his son after delivering him himself.
So glad you enjoyed the chapter and thanks for the great reviews you always leave me.

You continue to write such a wonderful story! I adore that Edward was close and just couldn't help himself but go and see her. The whole confessing and passionately kissing in the rain just makes my heart melt and tummy go warm. I have a feeling that Charlie will be taking the mickey out on Edward for the age gap and look forward to reading that bit of humor. Edward sounds like a teenager when talking to Charlie. I love the intimidation there. Thanks for keeping me entertained!

Perfect! Now it will be highly interesting seeing how they skirt around L.A. not being attached. This should prove for some interesting conversations. Thanks for such an entertaining story!
Date: 02 Apr 2010 Title: Chapter 8: Chapter 8
Well helloooooo! Great chapter. I have to say that I don't think I'd mind cruising around in a Vanquish. Drooling frat boys, yes, but the Vanquish, nope. I love the phone conversations. The poker playing scene had to be my favorite though. I can only imagine Edward choking on his drink and half spitting in in someone's face. I can't wait for him to get home!!
Bella Swan is an aspiring sports writer and her first big assignment is to interview the league's biggest, not to mention hottest, quarterback.

First off, WOW!!! This was very well written and flowed nicely. I hate to read stories with many typos and grammar issues. Also, so far this is plausible. You developed the story between the two well, and it wasn't just an automatic jump into Bella walking into the locker room and pouncing on Edward. I like to have a little background, and you provided that. I have to say that you totally surprised me, and that was extremely refreshing. There aren't many stories or books that I read that I don't see the writing on the wall. I am pleasantly surprised at the twist ending. I LOVE IT!!! Please give us more!!
Author's Response:
Thanks! I try to make sure I don't have any errors, I'm sure a couple slip through but I have two great betas and a pre-reader who let me know when I'm not making sense!
I definitely wanted them to have more of a history than just be two people who screwed in a locker room minutes after meeting :) That works in porn but not in one of my stories! I'm glad I was able to surprise you and I definitely plan on continuing it once the challenge is over, go back to when they met and then them dealing with the attention when their romance becomes public. It'll be mostly fun, just like this chapter I hope!
Thank you so much for reviewing, I'm so happy you enjoyed it!

*jumps up and down excitedly* I am SUPER glad you decided to continue with this story. I LOVE the beginning and cannot wait to see how we end up in the locker room!
Author's Response:
I love your excitement! I'm thrilled at the response the first two chapters have gotten and like you, I can't wait to see how they get to the locker room and beyond! Thank you so much for reading and reviewing :)
