Author's Response:

thanks!!

I'm glad that they didn't go all the way this first time, and I'm glad that Rosalie was able to gain some comfort from Emmett.  It's about time she stopped all of her games.

Author's Response:

THanks for agreeing that they should wait... and lol at the games comment! thats why i hoped to get this update out soon. i'm sure people were sick of her bitchyness by now! lol. Thanks for the review!

That was sssooooo good!!! :):)

Author's Response:

thank you!!

Does Fred Astaire sing? I thought he just danced... Wow. You learn something new every day.
Love this:
"Finally, I gave in." It's about f-ing time.

"Wait. Did he just say my skin… creases?" hahahahaha
“You’re unbelievably stubborn, cold, bitter, and you can hold onto grudges for far longer than anyone I’ve ever known,” he said with stern resolve. “You’d drive most any average joe away with your antics if he wasn’t completely sweet on you.”

Author's Response:

Yes Fred Sings! check it out on youtube (Night and Day, Fred Astaire). Its pretty cute.. he dances with Ginger Rogers, and sings as well, and you can buy his music.

I'm glad to give you that she finally gave in, lol. Thanks so much for the review! 

Gracious, that was awesome! And you're absolutely right about her past needing to be dealt with. Emmett was just divine here. You wrote it perfectly, honest and nervous and sexy, and all Emmett. There's no way Rosalie could resist him. Very nice little hint of lemon, also. I have a feeling when the lemons are full blown that house better watch out. I sense structual damage in their future. Good thing they're moving to Washington. U would also like to say what a fine job you've done at keeping them in character. Rose's firery dispositon and Emmett's sweet sexines is some of what makes them my favorites. Again, a wonderful job!

Author's Response:

Thank you so much! that means a lot to me considering your screen name and the fact that I assume that you "know" emmett and his character. Often times i get nervous that I won't be able to deliver to everyone else's standards of the hot, strong, muscular cullen big brother. I think your sensing of the future just might be on point, but i can say no more without spoiling it for everyone! 

This is in response to reviewer Feisty who left this comment:

Note: "I looked away, shame coloring my face." Shame can't color her face. Nothing can. She doesn't have blood.

Okay, I don't think that she meant her face was LITERALLY colored by blood.  I think she simply meant that the emotion of shame was painted across her face.

And just so you know, I don't mean her face literally had paint on it.  It's called a metaphor.

INCREASINGLY I am amazed, amazed, ecstatic with the DEVELOP THIS STORY. YOUR WRITING YOUR IDEAS, CONTEXT ... Congratulations are undeniable.

LOVE HOW IS INVOLVED IN EMMETT ROSE. SO IT REALLY DOES LOVE YOU TO HURT AND ANGER WITH ROSE him with indifference. KNOW THAT SHE LOVES IRREVOCABLY, BUT WITHOUT LIMITATION YOUR PRIDE IS A NONSENSE.
ROSE LOSING TIME, AND I'm going crazy, LAUGHS ...

Diana! thank you so much! I loved this review, it ma]kes me feel warm inside! i'm glad you're liking it all, and i promise they'll get together VERY SOON. infact... no i cant say it here. come to my thread, you'll see, lol. 

OMG!! I very nearly died waiting after the massive cliff hanger in the last chapter, but this was SOOOO worth the wait :)

I'm so glad that Emmett didn't kill Thomas, that would have been bad, his poor Nana. Rosalie did a VERY silly thing in winding up her newborn like that, and she got what she deserved, a good dose of shame and humility.

I really hope Emmett understands her subtle hint right at the end there, she really does love him, don't we all *sigh*

Hopefully you wont take too long with the next chapter, I want them to get over that final hurdle already. Both of them deserve to be happy, and a little more smutty *grin*. Pretty please?
