Very good; glad Bella and Edward got some down time together. Very sweet chapter (minus the almost blood-shed btw Alice and Edward :) Cute that he was so protective of Bella).
Author's Response: lol. Thank you. :) I always love a protective Edward.

Well, I think this chapter was a necessary bridge to get us further along! Nice writing! And yes for once...Alice should be ashamed of herself.....not for telling Bella...but maybe for the way and how it was handled! I agree with Edward!
Author's Response: Thank you. You're right, it wasn't that Alice told her it was more how that caused Bella the embarressment.

<< Ever since Bella came into my life I’ve lived on the edge of the most dreaded fear and the most unrestrained bliss. >>
I loved this line!
<< Watching old movies was something I typically did but it was different with Bella as so many things were for me. I’d lived in that time if not the place. She hadn’t and her questions about what life was really like then made me remember things I’d not thought about in a long time. >>
This is a cool concept that I wished SM explored more in the books, so thank you. I can imagine that Bella would have a million questions about the different eras Edward has lived through.
<< I noticed talking about this was getting easier for me. Although it still made me uncomfortable, I was able to share my thoughts and feelings without stumbling over every other word >>
Yay for progress! Go, Edward, go!
That was a really interesting chapter, Eki. I'm glad you have figured out a happy medium for the pacing of the story. Keep up the good work!
Author's Response: lol. Well as you know I occationally come up with those profound lines. ;)
I agree. I wish SM would have explored this more and if I ever get to do what I want with Goodbye that will be in there.
He is progressing. It's slow but it is moving along. :)
Thanks Jen!

So, at the end of the weekend, Edward is not only resigned to the fact that Bella will be changed but actually looking forward to it? I love how they both only want to be alone together and realize that they never really have that opportunity at home. They are constantly being interrupted or interfered with-mostly by Alice (but then again, I think this is what Edward wanted/needed or he would have put an end to it!). I can't believe that Carlisle would think that Edward would actually attack Alice-afterall Edward's turn of the century upbringing would frown on that!
Author's Response: At that moment, yes. It's something he is always wavering on but he does see the benifits more clearly at this point. ;)
It wasn't that Carlisle thought Edward would attack Alice per se, more that he wanted Edward to calm down. Alice and Edward have a conversation next chapter and I think maybe his feellings and thoughts will make a little more sense.

I was still in that position when she spoke again. “I have.”
My eyes popped open. What?! She’d… She’d…
Ha !! Poor Edward, this is excrutiating for him! hope he loosens up a bit, before he implodes. I'd like to know exactly what his sexual experience has been ..Tanya etc as a vampire, didn't he have ANY type of physical encounter with her? others? and what about Jake-Bella, does Edward ever wonder how far their physical relationship went?..both being human..?...I'm sure he must have thought about it...and wondered how he compares, with all his vampire differences.
Author's Response: His actually sexual experience from my point of view is none. Back when he was growing up, you didn't even kiss a girl unless you were engaged or married. As for Tanya, I've always viewed it more of her maybe trying to cornor him or get him alone, an extended touch or even an inappropriate thought. With Edward's mind reading, he would have been able to dodge most of what she had in mind from actually happening. So, personally, I don't think Edward has even kissed anyone else besides Bella.
As for Jake, I don't think he's concerned. He's heard Jake's frustrated thoughts and how he's wished there was more between he and Bella. I've always thought he was positive nothing happened between them other than the kiss. And yes, I'm sure it does have him wondering about the differences but I also don't think he'd ever bring it up, especially now when Jake has left home because of he and Bella getting married.

Great chapter! I'm looking forward to the wedding and honeymoon :)
That was a lousy thing Alice did, telling Bella such embarassing news about herself.
Author's Response: Thank you. :)

oh man. i have to tell u i'm disappointed. i really feel like they should get to 'petting' before the honeymoon. i mean, he just has sex w her the first time, and doesn't even experiment wtih his fingers, etc? she doesn't touch him?
seems pretty unrealistic. something i always had a hard time with in the real books.
i don't see what the big deal is ab them being able to smell her arousal either. i think bella would be embarassed, yes, but it wouldn't be that big of a deal to her. and to think edward would be mad at alice, for real, after everything she's done for him. hello? saving his life? um. yeah. no
Author's Response: I've mentioned a few times that I'm trying to write this in cannon. That means that I'm sticking to the storyline and everything SM set up in BD. From my reading of the saga I felt she stuck very much with the Mormon pre-wedding values which include no 'petting' or much else besides basic making out. In fact, I've even pushed that envelope a bit with his exploration of her in the last chapter.
So, I guess if you had a hard time dealing with it in the books, you will have the same problem with this story since I'm staying with that set up.
As for the rest of it, Bella was embarressed as most of us would be if their parents or new family could but, she, for the most part is over it with this chapter. Bella is the type that deals and moves on with most things. But we are in Edward's POV, not hers. Edward dosen't let things go that easily, he dwells, he ponders. And he also, many times, acts irrationally especially when it comes to Bella; Alice is just one case in point. I think next chapter might explain that part a little more for you though.
This story is a missing moment in the saga. If that's not what you're looking for, this may not be the story for you.

Torn. I'm feeling torn. We're 32 chapters in and he's barely touched her. *sigh* I know the rating of this story, but I have to wonder... are you hesitant to write lemony stuff? I'm sure I would be, so I'm just asking.
I feel the love the two of them have for each other, and the frustration of wanting to get to the honeymoon so they can really be together.
I also am a little discouraged by Alice's behaviour. She knows how shy Bella is, yet she pushes. I know Bella needs to get over some of this shyness in order to have sex with Edward, but it needs to be Edward who gets her there, not Alice. No wonder Edward is upset with his sister right now.
Author's Response: No. I don't have a problem writing lemons. I've got about 30 under my belt and counting. This is written the way it is because that is what SM gave us in the saga. It was very obvious in BD that although there had been some 'paracticing' they didn't get that far physically, at least to what we would consider far. These two never saw each other naked until their first night on the island and Bella was thrilled for Edward to have his shirt off. And from her reactions, it didn't feel like they'd gone much farther than where they were that night. Because I am keeping this in cannon, the only actual lemon will be when they finally consimate their relationship and marriage on Isle Esme.
As for Alice, this is how she has always been. Think of the graduation party. Like you said, she knows Bella is shy but she pushes anyway. I do agree it should be Edward who does the pushing but Alice is who she is and no one, not even her brother or her best friend, will change her.
