great chapter. esme and carlisle are so wonderful as usual. such mystery though surrounding edward and what's going on there. of course alice and jasper would hit it off it's so sweet! and then there's jake a pain the ass no doubt considering he seems to be bellas ex!

well it sure would be interesting to find out why edward is acting the way he did. i wonder does he have a crush on alice and is just awkward with bella! can't wait to see how the dinner goes!! i have to have a chuckle at bellas inner dialogue concerning edward and her lack of confidence in herself!! anyways moving right along. btw i love the length of your chapters!

wow that was a great start chapter! plenty to ponder plus was very interesting at the end! what was the cause of edwards reaction? does he have the hots for alice or what!! well one things for sure i don't have to wait for updates to find out what happens next!! lol i love completed stories!! nice start!

Love this! Romance, friendship, angst, drama, all of that rolled into a great story :)

Am loving your stories and looking out for more of your work.

Very intense and romantic story. thank you

hard to fight with real love:)

My theory- Edward has a girlfriend in Chicago he went back to see. He reacted so badly to Bella because he was attracted to her in a way he wasn't to his girlfriend.

And since this is a completed story, I can see if I'm right fairly soon! Yay!

I enjoyed reading the real life angst that was in this story.

you know, alice pisses me the hell off. She is like the Anti-friend/sister/cousin...SHE IS always keeping bella out and hiding shit. She tells herself she is helping Bella or being a good friend, when i reality she is playing games. she is supposed to keep her sister clued in and tell her everything she knows, not play with her life. annoying.

Alice REALY pisses me off, and bella forgives her WAY too easily. She is annoying, meddlesome, and bitchy. Bella also needs to grow a pair and give edwar a piece of her mind. Stop being meek. Oh, and BTW, nice fuck up with Jacob, BElla! Really? You used Jacob and did something you didn't want to b/c you are insecure.

I just read this fanfic in one go and it is amazing - I absolutely love it.

I just found your story and had to read it non-stop. You are a wonderful story teller and a talented writer. I look forward to reading more from you. Thank you for sharing your time and talents. Stephanie

Cute ending! ^^ I really liked the story, but I feel that the story ended a bit too short. Maybe that's just because I liked it so much and wanted more chapters. =D Awesome job! <3

I absolutely love it! You are so talented, and I can't wait to read more! :)
