I do like your Carlisle, he is a good father to Edward. He understands what Edward is going through and he doesn't judge he observes and comments and let's Edward decide.

So Edward and Bella have this deep connection which they have felt since childhood. Now emerging into adulthood they see it shift from platonic to romantic and are afraid of how it will effect them. Love is scary.

It's so tough enough being a teenager, and then you mix in insecurites, and fear...it's damn painful. I am enjoying how you are writing the dynamics between Bella and Edward. Does Bella fear letting Edward know her true feelings because she hasn't seen true love? Her parents obviously don't show that to her. Ofcourse we all have insecurities...Bella needs to somehow realize that Edward loves her wholly...he's been her friend for years and he's seen it all and hasn't run. Can they find balance? Enjoying!

Ew...Tanya. It's too bad that his first experience sucked, so he felt inadequate. No wonder he has so much guilt about Bella and the way he handled her first time.

Lauren and Jessica are foul bitches! I am glad that Edward got them back for Bella. But he would do that for his friend and also for the woman he's in love with.

Gah! He broke his wrist! I do like the way you wrote this conflicted Edward. He knows what he did was wrong, but needed his dad to set him straight. I think it's wonderful that Edward has the type of relationship with his dad he can talk to him about all this stuff. Carlisle is right, though, Edward needed to be talking to Bella, not him.

Well so the fallout from the night has started. They don't know how to deal with this new intimacy. Sigh...

Ah, jealous Bella. So Bella got what she wanted? Yeah...first time generally sucks. I wonder what Bella thought. Edward just took off...

Ew...Lauren and Jessica. They are so persistant. Is Edward going to get rid of them? Is Bella just overthinking?

Yeah...it's hard to listen to your parents fighting all the time.

I like how Edward wants to protect Bella, but I am thinking she is so vulnerable that it will be tough for her to not get hurt in this. Probably both of them. Em is an ass! LOL!

Loved Bella when she realized she wasn't leaning against Edward's belt! LOL! I liked how you wrote Bella's emotions during that scene. Enjoying.

Wow, I guess Edward will help Bella with all kinds of firsts! Edward talks about their virginity pack...he thinks he's helping her out, but he knows how attracted to Bella he is. Enjoying.

I think Bella and Edward's friendship is headed for dangerous territory. With their connection, I don't see how they can stay 'just friends'. Edward being the sexual teacher...made me laugh. What a guy!

I liked this EPOV. Edward is just trying to figure things out. He can't see himself without Bella, but he really doesn't see what that exactly means. Bella is his friend, who he knows intimately, but could there be more. Enjoying!

I liked this first chapter and I am intrigued by Edward and Bella's relationship and where it's headed. You can see their obvious connection, but they just view it as friendship. Edward kind of gets the best of the relationship. He can date and come back to Bella's comfort. Ofcourse this is through Bella's eyes...who knows what Edward is really thinking...
