The thing I loved about this chapter is how happy Edward and Bella are together. I love that they talk to eachother when doubts to their relationship emerge. I also love how how touchy they are with eachother. It looks like the gala is the next chapter. I am both nervous and excited for Edward and Bella to go to NY. Oh, another thing, I love Angela's friendship with Bella. Her quick approval of Edward is great. I hope that she and Ben wind up in Forks too. I think they would blend in very well with the Soverign Six :-) Your rec's are also awesome. I'm already reading Facebook Friends and LOVE that story. Thank you so much for the update and now I'm off to read the next chapter :-)

Awe- thank you so much!!! Yes, eleven years without one another, I need for them to be happy. And of course, eleven years without one another makes them very touchy feely!! lol Angela oh Angela. Unfortunatly she and Ben won't be moving, but we will see her in a later chapter. thanks again for all the really kind words!!

Yep Em is right that she defo needs to make a decision and whilst Jake is always hot and sweet I would still go for the bronze haired, broody, velvet voiced one ever single time!

Nice ep

no kidding!! Edward will always win hands down!

Awww so why the hell isn't he with her then - if I'd made that kind of promise there would be no way in hell that I would be kept apart from that person!

Author's Response:

I know- but you've already read so you now know the answer to that.

What about Tanya? Is Edward still with her? I'm asking because you have not mentioned her much besides what Emmett said. Is he still dating her? Did they break up?

Author's Response:

Tanya- all will be revealed in New York. Edward explains all of that to Bella. She like you, asks the exact same question.

Great chapter! I'm glad things went well with Jacob at the party. I'm excited to see what happens in New York. Can't wait for more!!

Author's Response:

thank you. Yes, Jacob needs his own HEA- but that doesn't mean we haven't seen the last of him. It's all good though!!!

Intriguing.  Looking forward to reading more.

Author's Response:

thank you!!!!

The gala was good and thank god jacob found his special someone.

Author's Response:

lol, I know! We'll see more of them later on!!!

I have a question... If edward just designs web pages... why didn't he move closer to be with bella after college?

Author's Response:

you are not the only one who has asked this question. Since this is chapter 7 you asked this on, all I can say is keep reading. Bella also proses this question to Edward.

I'm glad Jake found his HEA also.

Author's Response:

he deserved it! They will come back around a little later on!

So sad, got a knot in my throat reading about Bella and Edward's good-bye. Reminded me of telling my HS sweetheart good by as he left for college and I stayed behind to finish HS.

Oh Holly how did I ever miss this chapter? 

Keep those two apart for e;even years and they become a couple of rabbits.

So Bella has packed up and ready for the next step.

The gala should be interesting and then it is off to New York.  

Before I sign off I wanted to take time to thank you for sharing your story with us and wish you and yours a blessed holiday season.

Good question my dear! Yes, eleven years apart and they have LOTS of making up to do. Only one more chapter in the Big Easy and then yes, off to New York for a few. After the return from New York, things pick up with every one. And then it'll be almost over. I've been writing the last chapter for over a week now. I think I'm just not ready to let it go just yet.

And you are too sweet. Thank you so much and you have a great Christmas & New Years as well!!!

Oh My God! i lovvvveeeeeTHISSSS!! i cant wait for more. this is really good, but i think i went thru like 14 tiisueeess when charlie died. wow...anywayyyss cant wait for more. please please please update soon :)

Author's Response:

thank you so much!!! I'm sorry about the tissues (well not really because then that means I did my job) but I promise you won't need any more for a while. I only have one other chapter that might make you reach for the tissue box and we've still got some time before we get there.
