As always, amazed at how you keep the characters & story developing and fresh. It all flowed so smoothly, if you hadn't 'fessed up, I'd never've believed you were struggling with the writing. Thanks to you & to "Fee" for making your posting date. You don't know how much this fan looks forward to your updates. thanks again! OP



Author's Response:

This is my first review ever, having only discovered fanfic a few weeks ago. What. A. Treat. My thanks to you, dear author. Your characters' emotions feel so real and your plotting is anything but predictable and your way with the snappy dialog... I love it! Gotta say, part of me wishes I'd stumbled on your addictive story after it was done. Because i hate to wait!  Still, it's probably for the best as I'm embarressed to admit how much my work & all have suffered since I got hooked.  hmm, I suppose the pleasure is all the more delicious since it's so bad for me!

I'm fascinated by how far you've brought the characters & can't wait to see where they wind up next.  -O



Author's Response:

Well I am honored and grateful that you have decided to read plu and review my story. I have written a couple of outtakes that you can find under my profile. But here's a little out take that I wrote as a thank you - so enjoy.

Michele

 

 

PEOPLE LIKE US - OUTTAKE # 6

OUTTAKE - CONVERSATION BETWEEN JASPER AND ALICE

"Guys, I've got to go - Jazz please give this some serious thought and Alice, you need to stop being so fucking stubborn. I love you, Squirt!"

Edward almost crushed her in a hug. He slapped Jasper on the shoulder as he ran out the door.

 

"So... you talk about the size of my schlong?"  Jasper said.

Alice looked up at him with mounting excitement, "Well, it's quite impressive..." she said huskily.

Jasper smiled at her.  "Can we talk? I mean really talk; I've missed you Tink..."

Alice smiled through her tears. "I've missed you too Jazzy...."

Jasper looked uncomfortable for a moment and it bothered Alice.  She was used to Jasper Whitlock being decisive and in control.  Seeing him looking ill at ease was new.  There had been many disagreements in the Whitlock/Cullen home since Alice had moved in with Jasper two year before.

She had never lived alone, besides when she had gone to college and even then, she had attended Berkley, so that she was close to her family and Jasper.

Although over the years, they had learned to deal with Jasper's travelling for work and Alice's part time job as Edward's PA which had taken her away from time to time, through everything, including Alice's training as a submissive, their lines of communication had always been open and honest.

Alice had grown up in a house hold that was opinionated and not scared of voicing their points of view.  Esme and Carlisle had encouraged their children to have their own opinions and to share them.  They had also taught them to stick to their guns.

This was one of the many things that had attracted Jasper to Alice in the first place.  Although she was much younger than him when they met; he had always found Alice to be interesting to talk to and inevitably to argue with.  She was a spirited and enthusiastic young woman, with a warmth and energy that seemed to draw him in from the first moment.

Jasper on the other hand had grown up in a large family with two parents that had stuck together over the years because there was no other alternative for either one of them.  They were hardened by life, worn down by reality and for a reason that Jasper had never been able to fathom; they had decided to have three children of which Jasper was the youngest.  Eventually Jasper's father had strayed and a few years later, when Jasper was about twelve, he had suddenly come back to the trailer park where they lived with three small children in tow!

He had told Jasper's mother that they were his dead sister's kids, but after awhile he had confessed that they were his.  Jasper felt sorry for the three youngest children and when he had begun to make money from modeling and small acting jobs, he had made a decision to see that they would have an opportunity to further their education, go to college and make a proper life for themselves.  Although none of the children were really close or affectionate with each other, Jasper had stuck to his word and the three younger children had gone on to college.

Jasper couldn't believe that Ricky, the youngest of his stepsiblings had taken advantage of Jasper's generosity the way that he had!  Jasper had never asked for any compensation or payment for the money that he had given to his siblings or parents over the years; the only stipulation he had for continuing to support his mother and father was that the house that he had purchased for them remain in his mother's name.  Jasper was not close to his father and the distance had only grown when the man had abandoned his young family, leaving his wife to work three jobs to feed and clothe their three children.

Jasper had always thought that he would never find anyone to settle down with.  He didn't ever want the life that his parents had; tired, sad, disillusioned and settling for something because there was no time or money for dreams of something or someone else.  Someone better.

So the first step that Jasper had taken at the age of sixteen was to have himself emancipated.  He had tried to live in Los Angeles and he had hated every moment of it but as he begun earning good money, he decided to take classes at the local community college.  The first one was on finances.  Jasper wanted to know how to look after his money and how to make it grow.

He trusted few people and although people liked his quiet charm and whit; Jasper had a way of standing to one side and observing people that he found made him a good judge of character.  Jasper had come to rely on that instinct over the years.

It was an instinct that he could no longer rely on.  He had never thought for a million years that his younger brother would ever turn out to be the low life, perverted bastard that he was!  Every time Jasper thought of what Ricky had done, how Richard had betrayed his own brother by lusting, perving, salivating over his Alice!  His Alice!  Jasper wanted to kill Rick with a cold fury that he had never felt before.

How he had touched her, fucking forced himself on her when Jasper had been careless enough to leave her alone with him... FUCK!

Alice gasped as Jasper jumped to his feet.  His face was a cold, furious mask.

"Jasper please!  If you want to talk to me, then you need to calm the fuck down!  I can't reach you when you are like this!  If you are angry with me then just say so and let's get it out there!  If you think that I did anything to encourage your brother..." Alice cringed away as Jasper was suddenly in front of her with his hand clasped over her lips.

"Never - NEVER, EVER call that fucking piece of low down shit my brother!  I will kill him if I ever see him anywhere near you again!"  Jasper spat out as he held her.

Alice whimpered and she closed her eyes.  "Jazzy, you are scaring me..." 

This wild man wasn't her Jasper...

Alice felt the tears running down her cheeks and over Jasper's fingers.

Suddenly she was free.

Alice pushed a fist into her mouth to keep the sobs as quiet as she could.  Her whole body was trembling.

"Alice... sweet Jesus, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to scare you... Ali..."  Jasper choked out as he sat crouched clear across the room from where Alice sat.

Alice could see the anguish clearly on Jasper's face and she felt even worse than she had in the past few days.

This was all her fault!

"Come to me..."  Alice said, but Jasper just shook his head.

Alice slid off the sofa onto her knees and she crawled slowly across to where Jasper had slumped down against the wall.

Jasper could feel the intensity of Alice's gaze as he watched her moving slowly towards him.

"Ali..." he said in a half pleading, half warning.

"No.  You've spoken and now it is my turn..." Alice said when she was inches away from his face.

Her eyes searched his intensely.  The remorse and sorrow that Alice saw gave her the courage to move closer until her lips met his.

Jasper's head jerked backwards, but with nowhere to go, he hit the wall.

He cursed and rubbed his head.

Alice grinned at him, "Maybe that'll knock some sense into your thick skull!"  She quipped as she arranged herself between his outstretched legs; her thighs straddled his open ones so that he could feel her heated core through her jeans.

Jasper shut his eyes tightly and moaned as he tried to adjust himself.  Alice giggled and winked at him.

"We can get to that later, but first let's please resolve this ‘thing' once and for all!"  She said with determination.

"Gladly, Darlin'."

"Okay, I'm going first.  I need to tell you why I didn't tell you about... what was happening in the first place, but you cannot freak out on me!  Do you promise?"

Jasper could see how anxious Alice was and once again he was filled with remorse at his earlier behavior.

"I promise."

Alice took a deep breath, "I know that this might sound crazy to you, but when it happened the first time; I tried to just shrug it off.  I thought that perhaps I had imagined it or misread his signals in some way.  The next time it happened, your... well your father was in the room.  He, Rick grabbed my ass as I walked passed him.  I turned around as saw them looking at each other and Rick just winked at me and they burst out laughing... Jasper... you promised..." Alice broke off as she watched Jasper's eyes become dark and wild again.

Jasper felt as if he was ready to explode!  That no good, low fucking, good for nothing... BASTARD!  I. will. Kill. Him.

Jasper felt Alice's tiny hand stroking his cheek and he refocused on her anxious face.

He kissed her quickly, "I'm okay, Ali, I promise.  I won't freak out on you again."

Alice nodded slowly, "He apologized to me later - your father, I mean.  The next day he told me that he had too much to drink and that he had made Rick promise never to touch me again.  He begged me not to tell you and then he said that... some girls just have an ‘air' about them..."

SON OF A BITCH!

Jasper opened his mouth to speak but Alice put her fingers over his lips.

She continued. "I know better than that, Jazz!  I know better!  I was raised to know better than that!  With all their bullshitting and nonsense, my brothers have never, ever treated any woman including me with anything than the utmost respect.  You have never treated me like a whore, but at that moment, I felt dirty.  And I felt like a two bit whore, who didn't deserve anything better.  Rick kept touching me, stupid little insignificant ‘slip-ups'.  Every time he was around me, sometimes you were in the next room or you had your back to us... He would graze my breasts by pushing past me in a doorway, or he would rub himself against me if he were standing behind us..." Alice shuddered in revulsion and Jasper couldn't take it any longer.

His arms wrapped Alice in a vice like grip. "Never, never, never..." He said over and over again against her neck as he pulled her closer.

"Jazz..."

"No - it's my turn now... never, ever again, Mary Alice Cullen.  Promise me that you will never let anyone ever make you feel like that again.  Especially not me!  God, Ali, I love you so much!  Just the thought of another man touching you... Fuck!  It's too much to even contemplate!  Do you know how I felt when I found out that Rick was... forcing himself on you?  When we forced Bella to tell us and we did force her - she didn't have a choice really, I wanted to fucking kill someone there and then!  As you know, I sat up all night just thinking about what could have happened to you!  And about how I was going to take care of you this time!  I couldn't help you last time, Darlin'.  I wasn't able to stop that animal putting his hands on you... but I was going to make sure that Rick never ever touched you again."

Alice brushed the tears of Jaspers cheeks.

"I love you so fucking much, Mary Alice Cullen-Whitlock.  You own me mind, body and soul.  If I lost you, my life would be so empty... please forgive me for hurting you and dragging this shit out.  Please, please don't ever put me through this again, Tink, my heart can't stand it."  Jasper whispered as they held each other's faces and gazed with longing into each other's eyes.

"I love you, Cowboy; you are my everything... my lover, my best friend, my Dom, my love.  I am sorry too.  No more secrets."

Their kiss was a relief.  For the first time in almost two weeks, their lips were soft and forgiving.  Lips touched, brushed, nibbled.  Tongues dueled and teased.  Eventually they couldn't take it any longer and Jasper held Alice to him as he tipped her onto the floor and loomed over her, his knees pushing her thighs apart.

Alice panted into his mouth.  "Can I get my clothes back?"

Jasper smiled against her lips, "yeah, especially the underwear..."

Alice giggled, "can I get my car back?"

Jasper shook his head, "sorry, you will be driven around for a while..."

Alice groaned, "but I can see my Bestie?"

Jasper rocked back on his knees as he looked at the bright twinkle in Alice's eyes. "Mary Alice..." He said with narrowed eyes.

Fuck! He is so sexy when he does that... now I need to change my panties! Damn Cowboy!

"Hmmm... take me upstairs Jazz... I've missed you..." Alice uttered the magic words.

J&A****~~~~PLU~~~~****J&A

An hour later, Alice lay sprawled across Jasper's bare chest.  Her eyes were closed but she was humming as Jasper played with her hair.

"Alice?"

"Yeah?"

"Supervised visits only..."  Jasper kissed her forehead.

"I know - but that's only for now..." Alice smiled to herself.

She wondered what Kate, Bella and Rosalie were doing on Saturday after the therapy session?  She had heard that Gap was having a sale....

Everything was right with the world after all.

J&A****~~~~PLU~~~~****J&A

I hope that you liked it!

Love

Michele

Hey thanks for showing us a little of the relatively carefree young couple I fell for back in Tuscany. Don't get me wrong, I''m fascinated by the way you've developed the characters and plot, and no doubt I'll be surprized by what happens next. But I missed them. Happy holidays-

Thank you for the delicious chapter and new year wishes. That had to be the hottest use of shaving cream ever. (There should be a goldenlemon for that!) Wishing you a peaceful, happy healthy new year, take care of yourself & update when you can, your imagination and writing adds MUCH appreciated spice to cold & dark winter days.

M- Thanks for keeping the sexy abultions coming, there may not be a golden lemon for orgasmic use of shaving cream, but I did nominate your hot couple for several others. I still get a hot flash when I think back to those tequila body shots, whew!

Enjoyed the use of photos. Surprized as ever by your plotting, I'd've expected the angst to be over the red carpet, not the bean. Nice to see Bella taking charge w/ Em & Heidi. Cool how you introduced & resolved the Oscar date drama so expeditiously. All kinds of gems studded thru-out chapter. Thanks.

F- Having experienced this year how much work and money go into recovering from even relatively minor flooding I appreciate how important financial aid can be. I'm so glad that FGB is organizing to allow your community to assist in the disaster reponse. Be safe-

Epic chapter M, well done! I especially liked the bit where their OBGYN was appreciating the intensity of their love for each other. That look thru another's eyes brought a certain zing of intensity.

I for one would be thrilled to have your/their story go on and on. Tho how you manage to keep the drama going... I'm in awe. The physical humor of the hospital encounter was a hoot. Daddy C lossing his cool and setting off a chain reaction. hehe. Thank you for sharing.

Always so happy to get an update on your story. The writing in this chapter flowed so smooth even while the location and POV changed and emotions went to extremes. Guess we shouldn't be surprised that B did her work too hard eat too little thing given the circumstances. Thank you Edward for not dropping into the reflex reaction of anger and punishment. Well done!

 I've been reading over from the beginning, jeeze I love that body shot scene. Nice reference back to Tuscany with the new home decor. I wouldn't have guessed during the last few chapters that things were wrapping up, but halfway thru this one, you got that across in a really lovely way. All that & serious playroom time too... pretty impressive Ms M.

 Looking forward to the new story. Tho I'll surely miss the fortnightly updates with these two.

You are amazing! Your story stayed fresh & juicy to the end (or should I say, the pause & promise?) Loved that you ended with B back in tuscany on her own to paint. And Edward is the stalker instead of the stalked, nice one! Loved the angst & suspense of the highway & hospital scares, Loved seeing all the family & friends (make 'em bleed, songs for subby, hehe), and even a trip to the oscars complete with up-to-date wardrobes. Yes, amazing! 

Here's what I wrote last November,  "This is my first review ever, having only discovered fanfic a few weeks ago. What. A. Treat. My thanks to you, dear author.

Lucky me, I come to your story with 40 chapters to savor before having to go on a diet of sporadic offerings. You literally had me lol'g thru out the banana episode. When you get on a roll the story & emotions get so vivid; your writing is getting better & better. And I enjoy how your notes keep a dialog going with readers, even the quiet ones (like me), it's so personal. Your insights really add to the experience. Thanks  -Ox

Well... thank you for reading the story, I am glad you are enjoying it ...Now that you are all caught up that means that you get Teasers...thanks for reading, here's your teaser ...lml

A piece of tomato fell to the floor but instead of squatting down Bella bent from the waist, causing the back of her nighty to rise up over her thighs showing me the ruffled yellow thong she had on. The groan left my mouth without consent while my dick pressed painfully against my pants.

 

The giggle that came from Bella gave away her intentions, my girl was fucking teasing me – again.

 

A hand landed on her ass before it registered in my mind what I was doing, Bella gasped standing to give me a shy smile. “What did you do that for?”

 

I raised my eyebrows in disbelief “If you stick that in my face you know damn well what’s going to happen.”

 

“Oh yeah? “ Bella looked up at me through her lashes taking a few steps back out of my reach dropping the tomato she had just picked up “Oops”

Sigh, I'm all caught up now. It's been an engrossing few days squeezing as much of your B & E into my days & nights as possible. I've definitely been caught up in their dramas & antics. Great job keeping the story engaging and the emotions real. Being a college professor myself, I'm especially enjoying the fantasy of all that free time for fun, fucking, and personal growth!

Summary: Past Featured Story

 

Welcome to Bebe’s world, where for centuries human beings have been the focal point of the exotic pets trade.  But now, the government has declared humans an endangered species, shutting off the supply from the wilds of Earth and leaving only those who are born into captivity available as pets.

Meet Bebe, taken from her captive mother at a tender age, she is now the companion of monsters.  She has been pampered, loved and cared for all her life.  She has never seen Earth, never known the hardships of life in the wild like the humans living in the nature preserves.  And yet, life is change, and for Bebe, there is no escaping this one irrefutable, universal fact: An overprotective parent is a good pet’s worst nightmare.

Thanks for the tip. I did buy your other 2 Pets stories but didn't realize the amazon Bebe might be even better than this one, which was wicked good.

Summary: Past Featured Story

What if Edward did not take the dramatic route and wait till noon to step into the sun in Volterra?  What if Alice and Bella were incapable of getting to him in time?  What if he was not the only casualty of bad timing and misread visions?

 

This story takes us down an alternate path than what we followed in New Moon.  The Cullen’s are no longer whole and Bella is so badly damaged that she may be unreachable as she closes herself off to the pain of the outside world.

 

Can a new love save her?  Can his voice pull her from the darkness?

 

This story is rated NC-17 for major angst, suicide and the possibility of far off lemons (who am I kidding?  If you have read any of my stories, you know there will be lemons…but not for a while).
