I think Jakes an immature tool and needs to GO. Sounds like theyr'e friends more than anything, and NO FREAKIN" WAY would my boyfriend get away with that manipulative bullshit!! nuh-UH!  That kind of behavior will only drive her away....oh, and Edward will drive her panties to her knees!

Methinks there will be a truckload of manly posturing when Jake arrives on campus. :)

Author's Response:

You are perceptive and right-on, Esq. In regards to your comments: You're right. I know. Exactly. I KNOW!!!! You're right. And yes, Bella's panties will be slipping soon---but for now she's wearing suspenders.

There is most assuredly a truckload of manly posturing going down at WSU once Jake arrives. Stay tuned for the throwing of punches!

Thanks for the review!

Author's Response:

Things are looking up, but Jake's visit will be a real downer. I will post in a few days.

Thanks for reading and reviewing, kmac!

eeekk!!!! this is, by far, my favorite story i've read on twilighed! it takes me back ten years! I guess there's really nothing constructive in my review. I just wanted to tell you how much I am enjoying your little story!

Author's Response:

Oh, Jen, you are so cool to tell me that! There are so many great stories on Twilighted. I'm humbly touched that you love mine! This is also my own personal college romance/dorm life story. And it takes me back....so many more years than you. ;)

Hope you really enjoy next chapter. It's jam-packed. As soon as I hit 30 reviews I will update.

Thanks for reading and reviewing and loving and sharing!

Hooray! They're starting to make real progress!

I can't wait to see how Jake handles this; should make for some interesting weekend!

Author's Response:

They're dancing the Transfer Tango in the right direction now. Two steps forward, one step back. Next chapter Edward will even dip Bella. It's a whole new ballgame. ;)

Oh, this weekend will be interesting all right!

Thanks for reading and reviewing twi-mom in CT   (?)

damn it! please hurry adn have Jake visit, so she can realize she's outgrown him, and then she and edward can hump like bunnies in the DFSF!!!!! 

Author's Response:

Oh Esquire, keep your thong on! Jake's visit will begin in chapter 20, so it's just around the corner. But Bella's got to deliberate and stew for a bit before she gets with Edward----she's got to be all angsty. However, chapter 20 will also have some yummy Edward, and really, isn't that what these fics are all about? Hmmmm??????????? I think so.

Shmexin' under the twinkle lights. It's in a future chapter-----just be soooo patient. It'll all be worth it when we get there. And they get there. And Edward, God love him, gets.....there. Oh yeah! Gasp!

love your reviews,

I'm waiting for the battle royale to go down between Bella and Jake lol

Author's Response:

Actually, there will be a battle royale of sorts, just not between Bella and Jake. LOlouder!

Thanks for reviewing, hockey chick. Get ready to high stick Jake. He should be in the penalty box for how he has made Bella feel these past two weeks.

im so excited for the next chapter!

Author's Response:

Me too!!!!!!!! You are going to love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I promise. Oh, and then there's angst. Of course.

Thanks for the review. Keep an eye out for chapter 20 in a few days.

*THUD...Holy Freakin Hale...AJ is not in right now please leave a message at the beep....oops sorry but the shock stunned me for a moment and kind of fell of my chair...*

Bella FINALLY admitted to having feelings for Edward!! She's gonna break up with Jacob!! * Happy snoopy dance!* Ok granted the self inflicted exile for three days sucked but those two are doing their thing again...LOL however the workout was great and put my lil mind at ease. Thank God they got to talking and realizing some major things.

Sigh, so Jake will be here in a couple of days but hey we still have two Jake-free days some I'm gonna enjoy every moment of it...

Author's Response:

Okay AJ, pick yourself up, dust yourself off, sit back down in your chair and put your seatbelt on this time. Or at least wear a helmet, for God's sake!

Bella is one slow to action chick, but she's heading in the right direction, and that direction would be pointed due Northward. Glad you were driven to do the happy snoopy dance. Living Jake-free will certainly do that to a person. I can't help but feel that, although it will never be mentioned in a chapter I write, Bella, herself, may do the happy snoopy dance inside the closet or within the shower stall once she is devoid of Jerkob.

Don't E & B do their thing in such a cute manner? Oh, and if you said "yes", you'll be happy to know they're going to be doing their cute thing repeatedly in this little fic.

You are SO going to enjoy the next two Jake-free days! I'll update soon---as soon as I hit 30 reviews for this chapter I'm going to upload chapter 20. It's got some definite YUM-FACTOR.

Thanks for putting such a big smile on my face with your lovely reviews. I really enjoy reading them.

Silly rabbits! 8)  it's not gonna work....

Author's Response:

You know pretending it doesn't exist won't work, I know it won't work, and now you know, having read chapter 19, that they know it won't work !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for your reviews. Sorry I haven't kept abreast of your reviews as you've caught up. I just wish Edward would keep a breast..... or two..... Just sayin'. ;)

Thanks for reviewing and making me giggle.

Sigh... I love this.

My friend Jacob, I do feel sorry for you come Saturday.

My lover Edward (don't tell Bella I said that), go get your girl! You & Bella deserve to be happy... together.

The Transfer = Love :)

Author's Response:

ZEE--I love it too! I'm so glad I'm in charge of steering this little fic, because I can make it exactly how I'll love it. And how you'll love it, it seems. Saturday will be extremely awful for Jake. And Bella. And Edward. But then there will be the days and weeks that follow....and Edward will go get himself his girl.Stay tuned for a rather interesting chapter up next. ;)

Love that you love the story. Thanks for reviewing every darn time, girlfriend!

Oh please, don't let her back out on breaking the heck up with Jake.  And if she calls him out on his passive-aggressive shite, then all the better! 

Author's Response:

;) You'll just have to wait and see! But I don't think you should be worrying that I'll let you down. I promise you'll love me.

Thanks for reading and taking the time to review. Stay tuned for a yummy next chapter.

holysweetmotherofwillynilly(had to use your phrase there jejejejeje)....stop tormenting us. When are these two going to finally lock lips?

Thanks for the update!:D

Author's Response:

lol girlygilr, there will be no locking of lips just yet---however, you will be suitable impressed when it does happen. I assure you. It will be quite unexpected, but not for a little while. There is still some wonderful angst to sort through, and then the Jake debacle. So, patience is a virtue. Damn those annoying virtues. Being wicked is so much more satisfying.  ;)

Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Dear Ms Banner......

Ok well Jake sounded alittle more grown up but I am sure that will end.... Eward all gentlemanly and stuff...... do we expect anything less..... and poor Bella knowing where she needs to go and not even realizing she has told herself...... "I'll always love you too, you've always been my best friend".... The girl just needs to listen to her own words......and then "I'm trying not to tell you how I feel about you, but I really am" conversation, comforting embases and HAND HOLDING back to the dorm!!!!!!!! Still doing the "Transfer Tango" but the beat has picked up a bit  3 steps forward and 1 step back...... got to love these!!!!!!!!!  Wonderful as always!!!! hope you are feeling better!!!!!!! can't wait for the next chapter!!!!!!!! no more tormenting in the next chapter lets just get down to it!!!!!!

Talk soon

Twi-H

Thanks for the lovely visual of Cookies, Ice-Cream and Edward in a shower..... in the words of Bella...... DAMN!!!!!!!

Author's Response:

Jake is not as immature as his phone calls have made him seem. He's frustrated and worried about losing Bella--exactly what's happening. When he arrives, he's not going to be Mr. Whiny. I think readers will feel bad for him. He's not a bad guy, just not the right guy. Edward, on the other hand. is Mr. Perfect. It's just a frightening step for Bella to take. You are right about the Transfer Tango---the pace is picking up; one step backward, three steps forward is pretty spot on.  You've got to love the sexual tension, the tension and the angst. Thanks for the wonderful compliments. Yes, I am healthy and my old self---Hale (and Cullen) and Hearty. Unfortunately there will be more tormenting for the next few chapters, but that's the way life goes.

There will be a lot more lovely Edward visuals as we progress. Promise!

Thanks for the review. Keep in touch, Twi-Ho ;) --I'm sorry for the mutation of your name, but I kind of like it, and wish it were mine. ;)
