Ugh. I do get you lost the mojo fur the story, but really? They dated other people seriously enough to be a threat?

This was so unnsatisfying at the end while I had enjoyed it immensely until the last two chapters. It’s really hard to buy the other relationships when they were “it” for each other, since we didn’t see the why of it all.

Just…ugh. I think in this case I might have preferred a trip back to Firks, a drop off, and a promise that they’ll figure it out. I think I’d have been happier not knowing.

Alas, thank you for a sweet story up to that - it was a concept I hadn’t experienced in fanfic in this particular iteration. Thank you for writing!

No lie - and you admitted as much - it did feel like you rushed this out and development just died. He took off for three weeks and she didn’t seem to care. That was more than a little weird. I was hoping he’d gone to Ithaca to scout programs, but I guess not.

Anyway…Bella just seems totally flippant and it doesn’t seem realistic. Ah, well…

…not me sitting g over here thinking, “wait - doesn’t she still have a cast? She can’t get in the water!” :)

I should have said in the last chapter how much I really love this story, because I do. Very much. And I see all the character development. It’s realistic. It’s just teens getting Brazilians and women hyper-focused on “making a man pay” with sexual games is the only part I can’t abide and that seems unrealistic.

That whole Rose and Alice all up in her younger-person business and teaching her to play games to get her way was just gross. Also I think they’re all melodramatic and overreacting about Edward’s note and going alone. A more mature person (like I thought Bella was) would have been sad about him going alone but understanding this was his thing he needed to do. She really showed her immaturity, and the other two women really overstepped into her business and pushed her on things that aren’t “her.” I guess I’m just tired off overbearing TMI nosy Alice’s and Roses who think sex, toys, and lingerie are the answer to everything. It’s so shallow.

Awesome story! I would have like Charlie to be mentioned in the epilogue.
Maybe that he was happily married to Sue and had finally excepted Edward.
Thanks for the story.

Loving this story but have to say, I’m getting the feeling the author might not be from the US based on some of the word choices… and also the fact that if you’re going from Washington to Chicago you don’t hit upstate NY first… and certainly not in just 6 hours on a motorcycle

Hey, I liked the beginning of the story very much. The End felt too rushed for me. But you're Bella was wonderful, really loved her here. Slighly more sassy than canon but still soo Bella. And you're Edward was just adorable. Fell in love with him a little bit. Him beeing insecure and running away from his problem thinking Bella would be better of without him worked better for me here than in canon. Still annoyed the shit out of me though. :D Thank you for sharing!

wow

Thank you for sharing your words with us :) I enjoyed this story from start to finish!

Thank you

Oh boy... I hope bella holds her ground. She is an adult, I hope she remembers that.

LOL... Charlie obviously didn’t wash his hands of Bella.
If Charlie is so private why does everyone know bella ran off with Edward? Charlie was the only one who knew.

Is Bella worried about how she is going to pay for college? Scholarship? Or is Charlie suppose to be paying?
