Well I hope in the next chapter for them to have some progress towards forgiveness.  I hope it's not just all internal monologue with no discussion between them.  I'm not sure what you have planned, but I'm sure it will be worthy!!!

Author's Response:

LOL!  Just remember, next chapter is the beginning, not the end.

Thank you so much for reviewing!

love this story! I seriously can't wait to see how it ends...if bella forgives edward or what ....can't wait for the next chapter!!

Author's Response:

I am so glad you liked it!

Thank you so much for reviewing!

oh.that must be the best talk shes had so far with anyone! "sniff,sniff"

Author's Response:

I am so glad you liked it!

Thank you so much for reviewing!

damn it Ellie! how come you can make me cry! LOL I love you anyway!!

 

Alice.... poor Alice she has no idea!

Next chapter is going to BADDDDDDD I can see it

Author's Response:

*hugs you so tightly*

I'm so sorry!  I didn't mean to make you cry!

I'll make it up with birthday fics!

Thanks for ... everything!

Tear filled, but great chapter.  Alice is such a dear and everything really is pretty simple with Emmett...

Hope will happen?  Understanding, forgiveness, and reconciliation!

Think will happen? A sad conversation, a lot of apologies, and another misunderstanding (or three!) that takes several chapters to clear up.

Oh, and although the Cullen of my choice is always Edward.  I still love me some Jasper! *licks lips*

Author's Response:

Alice really tried hard, and Bella did a good job giving her a chance to explain.  And Emmett.. you just can't stay mad at him.

Hang in there!  The next one is rough but remember it will be okay in the end!

Thank you for reviewing!

*Sniff*

I love alice... i wish she was my best friend.

Well done in getting us through that one with a bit of hope for the future. Im assuming the brace position for the next chapter already. Its gonna be a doozy

Whelp, I hope she gets all her anger, hurt, yelling, frustration & tears out at Edward in the next chapter, cuz they really need to move onto what the heck they're gonna do now that they're parents! They need to be parents first. They can work on their "I'm-so-mad-at-you" crap in small doses as they go 

Author's Response:

Keep in mind that the next chapter is only the beginning, okay?  Promise you’ll remember.

Thanks so much for reviewing!

there will be TEARS :'(
but then it'll be happy ---> : )
cant wait for the update!

Author's Response: Remember, this isn't a one shot deal. There are more chapters left. Thanks so much for reviewing!

Since you asked, I think the reunion is going to be awkward and painful. And if Alice has a lot of work to do, Edward is going to be thigh deep in kimshee. This was a sweet reunion. Please update soon.

Author's Response: Lol! The kimshee made me giggle! Thanks so much for the suport and the review!

ungh...make Edward my swimming instructor pretty please, I'm salivating...

I THINK we may see Bella do a lot of Edward bashing...cringe.

I've had enough of Guiltward, I HOPE we'll see him be suitably humbled and remorseful for not being there for her and hurting her as he did, but not to shoulder ALL the blame about the choices she made AFTER he left... He was stupid yes, but he didn't know she was pregnant and I really think Bella was very wrong for leaving town and not saying anything to anyone - and not telling Edward about their baby in the first place. I understand she didn't want Edward to stay with her just because of the baby, but he should have been told and been given a chance to be a part of its life, for the baby's sake - I don't think Bella intended that to happen which is pretty poor given her own less than happy experience of growing up without both parents.  I'd LIKE to see her stop playing the victim and take some of the responsibility for where this has ended up.

If I had a FANTASY reunion (probably not within the realms of  possibility, but we can dream) it would be them see each other, start bawling and Bella opening her arms to Edward (like she did with Alice) with tight hugs and sobs and tears and no words for a very very long time. sigh.

mmm so what's it to be PdT?!...

Author's Response: LOL! Wow, that's a lot of wishes! Remember, this won't be a one shot deal... Hang in there! Thanks for reviewing!

Author's Response: We still have a way to go! Thanks so much for your enthusiastic support and for reviewing!

okay so that was a great chap. im glad that bella asked alice about how edward is with the baby. it was really sweet. so i can't even explain how excited i am for the next chapter already, ive been waiting 40 chapters for it after all. i hope there are some tears, some anger, some love, some kissing, and some baby. i also hope its a really long chapter and that u update soon bc i dont know how much longer i can take it! 

Author's Response: Hang in there! Remember that I warned folks! It will be ok in the end! Thanks for reviewing!

Great chapter. I cried with my girls and smile with silly Emmett.

For the great talk, first thing I'd like to have both POVs. Even if takes longer to update, I really think the talk should come like a band-aid. If you cut it in different chapters, we have time to take a deep breath and I would never be the same. Please?

Edward will of course be pure angst, crying like the desperate man he is, and we need to see how this will affect Bella. But I also want to experience Edward's emotions of seeing his love again. Because his pain was self-induced, we sometimes forget this situation hasn't been a stroll in the park for Edward either. He was in deep depression for months, missing Bella everyday, living with the guilt of hurting her in more than one way.

We victimise Bella because she surely got the worse but as Carlisle said, she has her mistakes to account for too. She should have told him that she was pregnant, not assumed that was the reason he was leaving her. Even believing the lie was offensive, to be honest.

So, she as much as Edward could have avoided the situation and she should recognised this as such. I think it is going to be easier to forgive Edward and the Cullens if she does so.

Summarising, I think Edward has suffered enough. I don't expect she will accept his marriage proposal next chapter but I really would like that by the end of the talk he'd feel a bit better about himself and a bit hopeful about the future. She for example should let him know that she does not intent to take Elizabeth from him.

And for Bella too, she has to snap out of this self-pitty mode and realise she now has a daughter and that what is done is done. Healing will take time but will only happen if she allows it.

I don't know how canon you intend to make this story, but Bella was known for taking time to come up with her decisions but once it is done, it is done. She has taken time to think over things and heard what everyone else had to say about their reason for leaving and even Edward's. At this stage, she cannot pretend that she still believes the lies, that he doesn't love her, or that he knew about the pregnancy. This all should count on his favour. She already know why he left so in my view, this should not be the focus of the conversation.

At the end of the day, the questions I think Bella should ask herself are rather "Can I forgive you for leaving?" and if yes "Do I still want a future with you?". On the same tolken, I really think she should also apologise for not have said she was pregnant with his baby.

But then again, it is your story and all the above might be a load of crap. You've done a great job with this story and whatever you decide it should be, we are waiting for it (anxiously).

xoxo, M.

 

 

Author's Response: Wow! What an amazing review! I am thinking that you may at least be satisfied with where I go with this, although it will take more than one chapter... I am truly grateful for this review!
