Bio:
'The story of us', was 'Bon Secours'. And 'Instructions Not Included', was 'Bon Secours the sequel'. Sorry to throw you off, but a name change was a must.
Sequel to 'The Story of Us', if you didn't read that, please do so before you read this. The title says it all, since children do not come with an instruction manual. This picks up right where the original leaves off, 'The Story of us' epilogue. If you liked that, you will LOVE this. How will Edward and Bella deal with a house full of teenagers? There's flashbacks, more drama, more lemons, much more humor, and a whole lot of story.
Doctorward is there too, just like the first story.
It's incredibly long because we have the (A) story, which is Edward and Bella. Then we have the (B) story, which is EJ and CC, their two oldest children.
Points of view will fluctuate. Chapters will be split, since there's essentially two stories in one.
Rated NC-17 just in case for Lemons and Language galore
Edward, Bella, the whole gang, their kids, plus a few original characters.

Date: 04 Feb 2013 Title: Chapter 49: Alex Outtake
Oh CC, children really are payback. I can't wait for more from him. Poor Alex, she definitely has issues, maybe Dr. Dan can help. Ugh, yuck Jacob, at least he did the right thing this time. Bella needs to explain what he did.
The Few. The Proud. The Strong. Returning Marine Edward Masino has spent the first years of his adult life embodying that motto. But as he moves back to the Brooklyn neighborhood where he grew up, he is introduced to a whole new code of ethics. He quickly learns that some rules cry out to be bent, but there are others that, if broken, will get him killed.
*Drama. Humor. Romance. Hurt. Friendship. Crime, you name it. It's listed Drama/Romance, but there are many facets. EVENTUAL Canon Couples (Rome wasn't built in a day) Edward/Bella.

Aww, he really is a good boy, all concerned about the coughing. This is heavy, Senior must trust him more so than most. He had to have kept tabs on Edward during his service to move him up so quickly. This says a lot about CJ and Riley too, while trusted he's still one to watch. There's a warning in there too, no one is safe.
Date: 30 Apr 2013 Title: Chapter 78: Chapter 78
Wow, you've always been a master at infusing the dark with the light, and this is a great example of that. If Caius was sensing weakness before, now his eyes are open. Yeah, Edward definitely needs to go away for the weekend. While Riley may know better, Edward should still watch out for him, he shouldn't have said anything about tributes in front of Jasper. Maybe Bella took it for what it was, he was quite calm and protective. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Date: 01 Feb 2013 Title: Chapter 47: Chapter 47
Oh, Edward has so much work to do when he gets home, since Jasper doesn't have a clue. I can't wait for him to be back in Brooklyn either. I sense trouble's coming.
Date: 01 Feb 2013 Title: Chapter 46: Chapter 46
Yeah, I'm thinking I see the same thing that Rose did. Bella and Edward will have to watch it. I was giving Emmett the benefit of the doubt before, but I don't like him one bit. I think Rose would survive without him.
Date: 22 Jul 2013 Title: Chapter 98: Chapter 98
Good to see them reaching commmon ground again.
Date: 25 Feb 2013 Title: Chapter 62: Chapter 62
Come on B! Tell Him!!!! Yay, for wanting to go home alone, and pushing them out. These two still have a ways to go though.
Date: 02 Jun 2013 Title: Chapter 90: Chapter 90
While I may not always like your characters or the choices they make, and sometimes I really want to smack them around, they keep me highly entertained. I'm glad that Edward sees her making progress and encourages her to speak up; he's building her confidence. Sr. was being quite cryptic, poor Edward... everyone looking to him for answers and he doesn't know either. Can't wait.
Date: 24 Apr 2013 Title: Chapter 71: Chapter 71
Can't wait! Still not trusting CJ though.
Date: 24 Apr 2013 Title: Chapter 74: Chapter 74
Buy the girl some crackers please! Trying to cook eggs in the morning, yuck, but she'll learn her triggers soon, hopefully. Poor Eddie, he definitely needs to get her to a doctor sans Alice. He's getting it from all fronts, maybe things will settle down on the home front once they have a routine. CJ is nasty, trying to get Edward in trouble! Poor Jasper.... I'll skip the drama thank you, I just wanted some coffee. Loved it all, as always.
Date: 17 Mar 2013 Title: Chapter 67: Chapter 67
She showed some maturity, calling for a ride and not leaving him alone with a concussion, so maybe there is hope for her. I expected the confrontation between the boys, it had to happen sometime, any good brother would. Alice really is ghetto for a princess, and I have a feeling Emmett will get his eventually. Loved it all!
Date: 26 Jan 2013 Title: Chapter 44: Chapter 44
Wonderful as always.
Date: 15 Feb 2013 Title: Chapter 53: Chapter 53
It was good to see this moving again. I hate their relationship stalled, but it is realistic that she would need to step back for a bit.
Date: 17 Feb 2013 Title: Chapter 56: Chapter 56
That Rose! She did that on purpose. Oh Bella, trust him and tell him soon. Good to see she's not so bad off, and Jasper is an idiot, which makes Edward concerned and walking on eggshells.
Date: 07 May 2013 Title: Chapter 81: Chapter 81
Oh, Edward is so good, and he is right this would set her back. However, the solution would be to have more date nights at home. I liked the reconnect between Jasper and Edward, not liking that they will spend time with Emmett and Rose. Emm can't be trusted. I'm also not sure that it was a good idea for Edward to alert Jasper about the cleaners, he's not exactly discreet. Hopefully that won't cause him problems in the future. Can't wait.
Date: 10 May 2013 Title: Chapter 84: Chapter 84
Glad to see they are in sync again. Alice has no shame, seeking advice from Bella about her brother, and then to ask Edward. Loved his answers though, and the way he hung up on her. It's nice to have a bit of fluff before the heavy, I'm sure it's coming with CJ and Monday. I just hope they can stay out of it, and Jasper keeps his mouth shut.
Date: 14 May 2013 Title: Chapter 87: Chapter 87
While it was good to have her tell her side of things, she needed his more. It's nice that they are in each other's corner, and are finding their way together. Here I am as jittery as Edward, anticipating what's going to happen next.
Date: 17 Jul 2013 Title: Chapter 96: Chapter 96
Poor Bella! He is changing, and I hope history isn't repeating here.
Summer of 1994: Dial-up internet. Pagers. Walkmans. AOL chat rooms. O.J in a white Bronco. And blazingly hot weather in Brooklyn where eighteen-year-old Bella Swan is filling her days making ice cream sundaes before she starts college. But one long night – full of Ecstasy, subway rides, dark dance clubs, and a boy she doesn't want to stay away from – may change everything. ExB, mostly canon. AH. HEA.

I have to wonder how much Charlie gave Renee over the years, was he still paying something out? Mad, now that he finds Bella's not living there? Edward didn't get to tell him about Bella having to pay the bills, or being left without food.
Date: 10 May 2013 Title: Chapter 17: A New Day
Ugh, yes you are! Yet, that's one of the reasons I like you, it's not always perfect. They made so much progress last chapter, and then like Edward's... my heart broke. Stupid, little girls! Jazz better run! Edward is going to go back to prison just by association with them. I know it doesn't matter what I say, but please don't let him seek out Tanya. Can't wait.
Date: 25 May 2013 Title: Chapter 30: Cake
Finally, Bella sensed trouble with Kate, so maybe she will heed Edward's warning in the future. I was worried Edward was going to a dark place again for a minute, but I think it was great that he wanted to go to his father. I loved that they finally opened up to one another, and Carlisle's revelations proved he knows his son well. However, Edward knows his father too, and I thought it was neat that Edward is onboard with Esme's desires. Sounds like he needs to find Esme and give her the encouragment to push his father. And then, this chapter was just perfect! Carlisle may guard his own heart, but he's even more protective of his son's. I'm curious what Carlisle put in Bella's card, and he admitted to Edward that he was wrong. They're so nervous with each other, it's sweet.
