I kind of guessed that ending would come. It's so sad to read it, knowing she was going to die in the end.

It makes you think, though, whether he would ever regret not turning her now that she has gone. She might have experienced all human things, but now she's gone and they can't spend forever with each other :(

Hi Paula!

This was a horrible one to write actually. It kept me up all night and I knew I had to get it down, but I cried at the end.

I envisaged that, too late, Rose would see she was wrong, Edward would kill himself and Alice will have had to live with the knowledge that the family she loved was going to be decimated. Thank goodness it didn't happen that way!!!

very sad....now i need to read something happy..lol

I know - normally I love the HEA, but this one had to be written. try 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon'. That's a happy one! lol

Thanks for reviewing. :)

YOU MADE ME CRY! I am sooo glad he never made that choice.  We would have missed so much.  That would have been the MOST heartbreaking decision in the world, i love your depiction for Rose, Finally, someone got it right! My heart hurts ~ girl you are GOOD!  KUDOS.  KimiD

Bless you! I can't get through the door now - my head is too big!!! Thanks so much for reviewing - and dry those tears. :)

OMFG what a tender, poignant tale.  To imagine that Edward would be so stubborn and not take the path to unending love and partnership.  What a fool to let go the most wondrous thing in this life.

I met my soulmate this year, after 30 years of living a very unsatisfactory life.  It has given me an even greater insight into the true deep love conveyed by the Cullen saga.  I thought I understood before meeting my soulmate, but how wrong I was - it is even more intense and beautiful than I could ever have imagined.  In fact, he has texted me a dozen times during the reading of your other story this evening, and once just as I finished this one, telling me just how much I've captured his heart.

I also howled at the end of reading this story and know that pain will be mine one day, when we too are separated.

There is an agony aunt that used to be around a few years ago called Claire Rainer. (British). I remember reading an interview with her after her husband died - he was her soul mate. She said that she would never have missed one moment with him, but her life would only ever be a half life from then on. I have never found that for myself. My husband is a lovely man and I love him to bits, but he has never touched the depths of my soul - no-one has. I have yearned for it, but its not going to happen for me.

Make every second count and live like there is no tomorrow. I wish you every happiness.

Thank-goodness Edward didn't get his wish in Twilight!!!

 

Literally sitting here sobbing like a baby! Damn you! Just kidding, haha. It was so beautifully written, so heartbreaking. You did an exceptional job. Okay, I need to go find a tissue now. :)

Author's Response:

Thank-you so much. I cried while I was writing it, so I know how you feel! Glad you liked it.

Sooo sad. But very well written.

Author's Response:

Many thanks.x

I read this while at work. I cried. :( But it was very well writen. As you know I was very moved!.

Author's Response:

I don't have to read to cry at work! I hope you recovered enough to carry on.:)

Short but amazing. I'm sitting here crying. And I'm sure Edward just realized his huge mistake - but too late...

Author's Response:

Thats the real heartbreak I think. We know how wonderful it would have been for him to have her forever.

I REALLY loved this. It was beautifully written. I honestly believe that this is the way Edward wanted it. Sometimes I just think he's the most pathetic excuse for a being on the planet- SM wrote him to be extremely selfish. I both love and hate him. Because he would've rather killed himself than been happy with the woman of his dreams. His soulmate! UDFKGKNG DFNKDFNS EDWARD! 

Seriously loved it though!

Author's Response:

I am so glad he got some balls in Eclipse, because this to me was the saddest future they could ever have. I seriously think it would have been better for Bella to die early and tragically than to waste away like this. I adore Edward, but I am glad that he didn't get his own way! If anything, Bella proved to him over and over that his way was wrong. He only believed it after Renesmee was born and Bella became a vampire.

I also wonder what Rose was saying to him on Bella's deathbed. Sorry perhaps?

So glad you liked it.

i freakin' hate edward. amazing story, i loved it. it made me cry. you are an amazing writer.

Author's Response:

Thank-you for reviewing. I'm sorry I made you cry :(

Don't hate Edward, pity him. He had the love of his life in his hands and he threw her away.

EXCELLENT!!!
