Edward is going to want to steal that spray of Bella's. I love that she won't tell him the family secret until she has his last name. Too cute. I love the confidence he has with her. Waking her up so they can have sex. He's come so far. Mr. Volturi intimidates edward and I don't like that. Hopefully, he will start being stronger for it. I loved the part that she already had her bags packed. I have my wall of cd's alphabetized by artist, then by album name within the artist. Yes, I loved that part of this chapter. Even read it to my husband . . . who laughed about it and pointed to our wall. I love that they seem to be insatiable now. Edward's making up for lost time, that's for sure.

I said it before yes, Renee adopting the child is a wonderful thing. However, she's a shitty mom and should not be putting the child through what she put Bella through. Her mother is not seeing the point Bella is making. Her turning it around and telling Bella she was acting the child in the situation, made me want to smack her. Bella did the right thing by throwing her out of her apartment and life. Renee was way out of line. I love Charlie and him coming right to her. Calling Edward to be there was even better. Loved their conversations, both men separately with Bella. She's got a great team on her side. She needs them right now and it is wonderful thatbthey are there for her.

I'm happy she's got a substitute position for the next couple weeks. Seems she really enjoys it too. I have always said, if I did my career choice over again, I'd love to teach teens in high school. Teens are awesome. Some think they know everything. Some are so angst ridden over the littlest things that to them, because of their age, their world is ending. Some are so happy and just eager to live life. It's a melting pot of feelings and emotions. I think it would be great to teach them. Alas, I took a different career completely. Love it though. I'm thinking that Renee won't see Bella's side of things. She's probably going to think she being selfish. She isn't, she's being a realist. She has first hand knowledge that her mom is not capable of being a mom.

That was very funny that she technically lost her virginity to Edward. Poor Jacob and his teenie weenie didn't do the job after all. Still laughing. Their second time was perfect. They've got the hang of it now. Of course Edward has a five year plan. So cute. I hope the birth control she's on, the shot, stays working. Not sure how he'd handle her being pregnant too soon. He'd be happy, after he had a panic attack. I was hoping that with her situation and no current job, that she'd move in with him. However, you nixed that with them signing this plan. A year and a half before they move in together is too long. Especially since they spend most nights together already.

I'm glad she kept reminding him that it was all about him for this round. She knew he would never last through his first time. He'll build himself up in time . . . as most men do. She was great with him.

Wow, Mike is the biggest idiot. Saying what he said to Bella and firing her that way . . . coming on to her like that . . . he just lost his job and brought Jessica down with him. I'm thinking he will also lose his teaching credential for it as well. What an asshole. He'll probably claim that she came onto him but, hopefully other mistreated teachers come forward and back Bella up. I'm so glad that Edward took her away to that park to calm her down. I was thinking lawsuit the whole time she was freaking out so, I was very glad that Edward told her she's doing just that.

I was shocked that Rosalie came to Edward's for Emmett. I do like that he stuck up for him and the baby. Telling her that Emmett wants the baby, whether she does or not, and to start acting like a mother. That was fantastic. I tell you, I love that he is so fierce, when he needs to be. No stutter. No bullshit. He just tells it the way he sees it and it has been spot on so far. I loved the timing of their ILY's. I really loved that she said it first. Well, she was about to and then froze realizing what she had started to say. I am so happy that he was so persistent in her finishing her thought. It resulted in a very sweet scene. And, I love that he didn't want to mush the two significant moments into one night. He's effing adorable.

Okay, Bella walking in on Charlie's naked ass is funny. Nobody wants to see their parents having sex but, we all do at least once in our lives, sadly. It was funny that Sue just ran the hell out of the house. I really loved the conversation in this chapter between Charlie and Bella. Charlie telling Bella that Renee asked him for a reference and he basically said the same things Bella said. Too funny. Then them talking about Edward and how Charlie wants to meet him. I like that. She should invite him down the next day. Give Edward no time to freak out about meeting Charlie, except the drive down.

That makes sense that Rosalie is pregnant, as that would explain why Emmett was this way. Seeing it through her eyes, I can sort of see Rose's point of hating Edward, as Emmett and Bella care more about him than her. However, she is not fifteen, she is mid-twenties at least. She needs to grow the hell up and not make decisions on hearsay. Meet the man himself and see for herself why Emmett and Bella love him so much. She never gave him a chance except that one time at his parents house, when she tried to encourage conversation. Clearly that wasn't the real Rosalie and she was just trying to make a good impression. She needs to put her big girls panties on and get her crap together. She is pregnant for pity's sake. Bella scared me for a minute there. Until she realized her only child syndrome was showing. I hope she doesn't stew on it. And, I hope she realizes that even though Emmett and Edward were not speaking because of the horrible things he said, they are still brothers and family doesn't turn family away.

I really like Eric. He and Bella seem to be friendly without him being weird and wanting her. Just friends. I don't understand Phil and Renee but, it is their life and they can live it the way they want to. It sucks that Bell will most likely be saddled with this decision of theirs but, Edward did say some things that made sense. Such as having a family is better than living in an orphanage. Even if the parents forget things occasionally. I also think it is cute that she is definitely in love with him. I have a feeling Edward is in the very same boat. I think it will be soon that they share their ILY's. My hubs and I knew within the very first week of dating that we loved each other and that we found forever love. The saying, 'when you know, you know', is very true.

What an idiot her ex Jacob is. He cheats on her, with her own cousin, and he thinks she'll just take him back? What a fool. I was so surprised and very happy, that Edward was able to stand up to Jacob that way. That was a very challenging situation and he just stood right up to the guy. Even managed to size him up and noticed that he was taller and better built than Jacob. That made me giggle. Very happy for Edward. The sex talk was funny too. She doesn't leave any wiggle room and I love it. She explains things very directly, which I think is good for him.

That went a whole lot better than anticipated. I am so glad that Peter ran into Bella. That Bella put two and two together and realized Thomas was Edward. Now Edward knows, because Bella figured it out, that Jasper thinks that Edward hates him. This can be easily fixed. At least it seems like it can be. Now, they just need to figure out Emmett. What his issue is with Edward and why he feels the way he does. I really like the banter between Bella and Edward. It is very fun to read.

I like that Edward changed his mind about saying 'give him a minute', to 'give us a minute'. That conveyed perfectly to Esme what he wanted it to. Glad that Bella's bag was in the bedroom already. Well, I am sure that Edward would've gone to the kitchen to retrieve her for her but, still less embarrassing. I am happy that Esme liked Bella. Edward's worry over Landon, was sweet. It is good that he now knows his OCD is hereditary. I wonder who in his family he got it from? Could be just a dormant gene. The side of the bed part was funny. I wouldn't be surprised if she is sleeping on him come what morning.

I rather liked that Bella called out Mike on requesting a 'meeting' with Jessica. Not. At. School. Not with the children around . . . yuck. I was glad to read that Charlie is at home and his friends are taking care of him. Allowing Bella to keep working, I like that. It was awfully nice of Jasper to invite Bella to the Halloween party, knowing the invitation would hopefully bring Edward as well. Love that these two can't seem to keep themselves from making out. Edward got naked boob gropes in! Yay! His mom has very bad timing on Edward's part. Poor Bella.

Seems like Rosalie is jumping on the Emmett bandwagon and is receiving his extremely skewed version of things. Instead of being the adult she is and making her own decision of Edward. Shame on her for that. Just because Emmett has his head in the sand over it, does not make the issues go away. No, Edward is not necessarily autistic but, he does have his quirks, as Bella said. Bella sticking up for Edward is so wonderful. She is just doing it straight from her heart too, no prompting from anyone, which makes it that much better. Can't wait for Esme to see Bella do this in front of her. She may just start crying on the spot. Especially because Bella gets so fiery about it. I love it. It was all kinds of cute that Edward has realized that he is falling for Bella. He is not the only one, as Bella realized this herself in the last chapter.
