Loved this chapter!  i wan't wait to see what is going to happen next.  Even though she loves him a lot, she can't just forgive Edward and let him off the hook....can she? 

I am glad she stayed to watch over him....they still could be friends right.....he was quick to come after jasper...for kissing her...and he knows now that was not what she wanted

that might be the clue to the fact that he over reacted to her being in Jaspers appartment....but the girls he was with ?????      holding my breath waiting on an explanation   maybe we can get some sleep talk out of him?????  some real honesty

I knew from Rose's text that Edward was on his way over and I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that Edward called Jasper to go off on him and that's why he went downstairs.  I'm not exactly sure how I feel about Jasper making his feelings known, on the one hand Bella was in no place to hear that, but on the other, he's entitled to voice how he feels.  Can't wait to see what sober Edward will say!

Ugh, Jasper! I kind of saw it coming, but not yet. I feel a little bad for him, but I still kinda wanted Edward to punch him.

Overall, it was a sweet chapter. I'm glad Bella didn't let Edward bake to death. And I like your new fitting banner. I liked the old one too, but I hesitated to read this at first because I thought it would be raunchier than it is. Not that there's anything wrong with raunchy sometimes...haha.

Jasper is - argh! I have no words! I actually thought he understood some things, but now - the selfish prick is back in full force. Idiot.

As for Edward, it's obvious now that Bella's perspective from the last chapters gave a very biased picture. I can't wait to read the explanation. And I feel so sorry for him, it must be horrible to feel responsible for your own father's death...

I agree with Bella - Jasper should not have provoked Edward like that at all!

eeek!! Loved it!!!! Oh Jaspers finally gettin wut he deserves ,muhaha. And Bella gets Edward:) Oh i cant wait for them to get back together, and for Jasper to find out:)

Hey Dani!

Let's see what you have for us this week.

He was twenty-nine now, one more year until thirty.

Grrr. Remind me of that, will ya? 22 more days and then I'm at 29. I'll just say I'm 14.5, twice. ^^

Oh, and it's Edward's bday? If he shows up today as in the teaser, we should make sure Jasper leaves her place in his boxers! HAH!

He remained looking at me for a beat longer than I felt comfortable with, so I nodded and walked out into the living room.

May I just say 'ugh' to that? Hopefully he's not thinking of getting her back after he was head over heels with her cousin and doing her, ugh.

He shook his head. "I told you; I want to spend Easter with you, Bella. It doesn't matter if it's there or here, as long as I'm with you."

Uh oh...

"I loved the idea of Alice, but I was never in love with her. I will admit that I wanted to love her, and I tried very hard, but it didn't happen. I loved you before, Bella. But this…right now…this is so much stronger."

Oh Lord... where are my smelly gym socks so I can shove them up his mouth for her?

"I love you, Bellsy," he whispered, his eyes shut.

It's a girl, not a yo-yo... :-(

We couldn't reach an agreement, so we broke up. A year passed, and I dated other guys, and I'm sure he dated other women. But we came back together, you know why?"

That had better not be a set-up for 'yes, I did fuck others in those 5 weeks we were apart' or how many it is right now... Personally, I don't want to read about douchebags like that. *crosses fingers*

Although, if he did, he truly has no right to come face-punch Jasper for kissing her! If a kiss means 'possible broken nose', then what does 'sleeping with' mean? Broken di-? Er, yes, I think it does. :D

He was still passed out. How did he get this big, clunky chair out here? I needed to get him inside to drink some water.

Is that how he got his muscles? Dragging that thing out and in all day long? Lol.

Just as I was about to instruct him further, he suddenly hooked his thumbs into the waistband of his briefs and pulled them down. I gasped and quickly spun around before I saw anything, feeling warm everywhere. I hadn't said for him to get naked!

That's okay... Hehe. Can't believe he did that. Either it's because he's drunk, or he does sleep naked. Habit?

"Bellsy. What kind of a name is Bellsy? No, mine is better."

I sighed. "Well, then, what is it?"

He ignored me. "Mine actually means something."

"It's mi alma," he suddenly spoke, his groggy voice laced with sadness.

Lol @ drunken kick at Jasper's nickname for her (he's right, what is that?), and then he reveals his: my soul? Oh, he'd better not have done anything with Kate, so I can someday reread and swoon.

Back to our regular schedule of Tuesday updates, so see you next week!

S-Saturday? Please? Lol. I wonder if the others are begging for that, too.

See ya soon.

Spikey

Really good chapter.

Ugh!! Damn Jasper. Stupid jerk. Now, Bella pissed me off, going downstairs to Jasper and checking his face and being mad at Edward for punching him, which Jasper totallly deserved. Ugh! Didn't she hear what Jasper said to him? I actually stood up and walked away from my computer ranting and yelling. I did! I was so pissed. I wanted her to kick Jasper's ass out and chew him out for talking to Edward that way. And then she's all pissed at Edward for showing up there, when she's really been waiting for him to do that all along. Grrr... at least she decided not to listen to her "mature side" and finally went to see Edward, even if it was to tell him off. Poor Edward all drunk and alone and sad, because he believes Jasper's cruel words. Jasper says he wants to be Bella's friend, and he knows how she feels about Edward. A true friend would not have done what he just did. She needs to kick his ass to the curb. js. Glad you wore your padded suit. LOL! I'm all worked up now and can't wait to see what happens next.

You know, my husband and I broke up for a year while dating too. We got back together for the same reasons. Every man I dated, I silently compared to him and they didn't measure up and I guess he felt the same. We had a very short conversation about what we did for the year, and then promptly moved on and the rest is history. So, there may be hope for them yet!

...I can't forgive him. I just can't. 

And honestly, Bella shouldn't forgive EITHER of them. They don't deserve it. What they do deserve, however, is to be flayed, publicly, by Bella. What pompous condescending jerks! I can't believe them. 

I don't care what Edward is going through. What he did to Bella was wrong. He could've explained himself better, but he didn't, and then he had the audacity to be upset when Bella had potentially moved on. 

She deserves BETTER! Much much MUCH better. 

Oh, I can't wait to see what happens! Although, I do hope Jasper finds someone... even Alice, if she can remain committed to him.
