Poor Bella and Edward. Make it better. Please. I hate seeing them like this.

BRAVO!!! this chapter is exactly what i want from New Moon, I always that the whole Cullens clan leaving and forbid from contacting Bella is ust a convenient plot device to drive Bella to Jacob...i mean seriously why would everyone follow Edward's ultimatum, i can understand if Carlisle issue it..but Edward is just one of the sibling, yes the oldest son but still not the parent figure. love the whole Cullens behind Bella's back instead of Edward bit too...

Author's Response:

I never really understand why they would all leave.  And I cannot stand Jacob, so he is never portrayed in the most positive light in my stories--sorry, Jake lovers out there.  She won't be going out with him--don't worry.  Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Jerkward, Assward, Bastward...I am lowing that somebody is expressing my feelings when Edward was at his most angsty, most pigheaded worst...

Still, please update soon, and make thing better...pretty please..

Chapter 19 will make it better--not immediately, so hang on.  It's to my beta.  I don't want to keep you all waiting for long.  That's just cruel.

i apologise for being an idiot and realise that by the time you get this review, quite a bit of time will have passed since your friends funeral. im sorry that you have had to go through this. eventhough i dont know you id give you a hug if i could xx. hopefully when you read this you will have had enough time to start healing. i dont know what you do to keep your head straight so you can write, but whatever it is you are doing a fantastic job. the story is still very enjoyable and thought provoking. on a personal level i think you are doing a great job at dealing with bellas injury. i suffer spina bifida and know exaclty how bad back pain can get. you are portraying the struggles of a back injury/back pain beautifly. keep doing whatever it is you are doing. so onto the next chapter i think ...............

Author's Response:

You actually have it a bit backwards.  I wrote during that time to keep my sanity.  It helped me to keep from falling apart.  I mourned and still do, but writing helps with the healing. 

I'm sorry that you suffer from spina bifida.  I have no idea what you go through to even deal with that.  I know there isn't a cure, but hopefully you've found a way to deal with it so that it is at least tolerable.  You sound like such a positive person that it sounds like you are doing well.  For that, I am glad.

The back injury is actually sort of from personal experience.  I have slick tile in my bathroom (we are going to change it--we are remodeling as we have money and time), and I slipped.  My back hit the side of the bathtub, and I was extremely sore for about a week.  I was still able to get up and around just fine, but it didn't feel good at all.  I just imagined if Bella went into the bleachers and hit her back and head in a few places, she was probably incredibly sore.

Thanks for reading and for your kindness.

Gah! 6 weeks??!! Stupidward. Idiotward. Moronward. Sigh. I hate NewMoonward. Glad the family kicked him out.

Author's Response:

I thought it would be interesting to have the family side with Bella.  Let's face it.  They worked really hard to help him find her and meet her.  They're together, and then he goes all emo without giving her a choice.  I'd be kicking him out of the house too.  Thanks for reading.

I have to plug your story.  To whomever is reading this review, you have to read everwondering's story DANGEROUS AFFECTIONS.  It is one of my absolute favorites.  It's so intriguing!  You will bite your nails for sure!

ooooooo i say. bella moving in? what an surprising turn of events. and edward still being a mucky mister whilst bellas in a hospital bed. tut tut. moving on. still loving the story by the way

apologies for not writing a review for the previous chapter. the last review id written pretty much covered that one aswel. wowee. fantabulous. loved this one too. they are moving quite fast but oh well it is a story and i find fast paced storys are more enjoyable to read as they dont get boring. plenty of mucky business going on and i have a feeling there is plenty more to come. no complaints. again im looking forward to seeing more interactions between bella and the cullen family as a whole. they are truely fascinating and the way you are portraying the characters, although very similar to the original story, they are themselves entirely different. its very plesant to already having a perception of what all the characters personalitys are like and having your portrayal to add in addition. it gives dept. my partner has also read some of this story. he isnt a twilight fan (although i forced him to go to the cinema and see the movie with me) he is pretty much a newbie and wanted to see why i like reading fanfics. a long story short, he asked me to include in my review that for him, being someone who isnt familliar with the characters, you have given good descriptions of the characters, the powers, and the vampire/werewolf thing. going into just enough detail to keep the story rolling and the reader understanding but not too much information to bore you to death. (which is probably what my review is doing now) anyway, next chapter. and thankyou for your lovely imagination!

Author's Response:

Dear achangeofheart--you aren't boring me at all.  I appreciate your review.  I like the idea of an entire vampire family with very quirky and often human personalities.  I'm happy that you like them as well.  And thanks for sharing this with your partner.  Maybe he'll want to read more--lol!  Anyway, thanks for your reviews.  Keep them coming!

that made me laugh. well the ending of it did. i love your take on the twilight story. still loosly linked with the original story but you've made it completly your own. its truely fascinating. i love the way the whole family are pulling together to help edward out aswel. anyway, keep them coming. next chapter

Author's Response:

Thanks.  I'm glad you are liking it.

bloody hell. sorry for the swearing, but im mesmerized. i didnt think i would enjoy this point of view. (baby bella etc) but i think its fantastic. roll on chapter 2 (or 1 if you discount the prologue) anyway, getting confusing now. keep the chapters coming. and ill keep reviewing when i can. im actually excited to see more of this perspective of things.

Author's Response:

Thanks.  I'm glad you like it.  There are 18 chapters up and Chapter 19 is to my beta.  I appreciate you giving this a try.

Just brilliant and I love the fact the family booted Edward. I cant wait to read the next part. Well done.

Damn  that was  harsh  I hope she makes him pay    and pay hard.

Ok

I knew this was going to be angsty, but I gotta say, GO CULLENS for kicking his sorry ass out and supprting Bella! But even with all the love and support she is still hurting herself...and he shouldn't be going to talk to ALICE he needs to talk to HER...

MEN...grrrrrrr

Thanks for this chapter. So glad his family stod up to him! GO EM!!!!

Author's Response:

I'm trying to portray Edwards inexperience and immaturity by having him talk to Alice first before talking to Bella.  He'll figure it out. 

The support system of the Cullens really helps keep Bella from totally falling apart.  She is still mourning his loss, but they help her get on with life, somewhat.  Chapter 19 will help explain how they helped her, and it's to my beta, so it will probably be posted tomorrow.  Love ya' dear!
