for those who cannot sleep should not dare to dream...what a beautiful line

Really awesome story. Cryed so much! This is going to be one of the FanFictions i always remember.

great little fic!

Sad :( but a good story 3

Wow! You said so much with so few words. That was really a beautiful story.
Thanks for writing it.

This is sweet and, while sad, not totally so. I love that they were part of Ella's life for a while and that they helped Renée. Typical Edward to beat himself up for what he can't do, rather than feeling happy about what he can. Bless him.

It's not often that a story gives me chills but this one does, in such a good way. It's heartbreaking, certainly, but hopeful as well since Bella and Edward's love is still intact. So many stories in this vein have resentment as a theme but Bella's longing is more like that of a human woman who is barren-this is just the way it is and she will try to deal. You are an artist with your writing-conveying so much with relatively few words. Loved this!

sad, sweet, tender - way to learn the consequences of her choice. Thanks for sharing.

What Edward most feared, come to pass. Very sad.

Sad but loved your writing and your take of vampire reality

Reading this sad little tale makes me glad SM created Renesmee, so Bella and Edward could be parents. Your story is probably more realistic concerning vampires, but still a bit difficult to read.

This is such a good story, realistic portrayal of what could've happened if Bella didn't get pregnant.

Beautiful and well-written.

My heart aches.

Aw, what a lovely story. So unique and beautiful. Thank you for writing. :)

Loved this. So unique. A wonderful "what if" scenario :-) I think it would have made a great multi-chapter fic too but this one shot is great too! Thank you!

Brilliant
