*giggle* I'm working real hard on that. Thanks!
Raised by her single father, Isabella Swan grew up in the land of men. Their favorite pastime when she was younger was to spend the night at the local dirt track, feeling the energy of the cars as they fought for position. Was it any wonder that eventually she would end up on the track herself?
Having paid her dues, Isabella (Izzy) Swan has made it to the big leagues, officially racing for a franchise in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series. Can she hold her ground against a track full of men who want to see her fail, especially her teammate Cocky Edward Cullen?

Thank you so much for your review! I really appreciate you taking the time to read my story! I update every Friday and post teasers on Mondays. In fact, there is delicious little teaser, along with a Pic Tease, up on the Parachute Blog as we speak.
I have taken to calling you, my readers, "Verucas". A good number of you are so demanding and impatient, even though I update every week! It makes me feel so damned loved and I give you this moniker in adoration! You truly give me chills and warm my heart at the same time with every review you leave me! As you can tell from this message, I respond to every single review that is left for me because you guys rock my socks!
Parachute's 1000th reviewer On FFnet was given the option to choose the subject of one of the outtakes and she deferred the choice to my judgement, so I will continue to listen to ideas and then maybe post a poll to see what you guys as a whole would like to see. The 500th reviewers on Twilighted and here will also be extended the same deal, since I want no one to feel left out!
Oh, and one more thing! An awesome Veruca named Phoebe started Parachute a thread on the Twilighted Forum! The link is up on the blog if you need it! In addition, thanks to many of you, Parachute was named as FanFic Addicts Fic of the Month! Super-freaking-yay!
I love you guys something fierce and I hope this next chapter lives up to your expectations of the first Cullen meeting!
XoXo

Esme's gaze went back and forth between Bella and Jack. She could clearly see the love that wound between the two of them and a million questions started to swirl around her.
"How?" she asked, as tears started to trickle from her verdant eyes. "What happened? How did you find him? How long have you known we were his family?" Both she and Carlisle looked at Bella expectantly.
"It's very long story," Bella chuckled, humorlessly. "Let me start at the beginning."
Bella started to tell the Cullen her tale, starting with finding Jack in the alley and taking him to the police station. She didn't get very far. They were interrupted with the sound of the front door opening and a loud voice calling out of the foyer.
"Mom! We're here!"
Bella felt something tighten in her stomach as she prepared to come face to face with Jack's father. Her nerves were at an all-time high and she briefly wondered if Dr. Cullen could prescribe her something to help prevent an ulcer from forming.

Thank you so much for reviewing! The Monday teasers are up on the Blog. (kitsushel.blogspot.com) Sorry these went out a few days late, but I was busy working on EPOV to go hand-in-hand with the next chapter, so I hope I'm forgiven. The next chapter should be up in a few hours and the Outtake sometime this weekend. ;-)
I'm so sad to see Parachute ending soon. It's been my baby for the past six months and I'm so thankful and grateful to each one onf you who has walked this journey with me! I'm not a big fan of angst or unnecessary drama, so our loose ends are starting to become tied up with Chapter 32. I only anticipate another 6 or so chapters before we're all finished. *sad face*
Parachute ended up winning the 3 Original Character Awards that it was up for, so much love and adoration to everyone who voted! Voting for The Avant Garde Awards ends on the 26th.

Victoria flew at Bella, pushing her forward as the other girl struggled.
"Stop it!" Victoria whispered. "Unless you want to fucking die, then keep right on fighting me."
Bella ceased to move and felt Victoria's hands pulling at the knot in the rope around her wrists. "Why are you helping me?" she asked in confusion.
"I may be a shitty mother, but I'm not a killer, Bella. We've got to get out of here. He's come unhinged."
"Really, Vicki? Is that what you think of me?" James voice echoed throughout the room.
Victoria froze just as the knot slipped away and Bella felt her hands come loose. She fought the fire in her shoulders and kept her hands together so that James wouldn't realize that she was free. Victoria's ice blue eyes were large with fear as she turned to face her lover.
