Duuuuuudes....that was not what I was expecting!  Lol.  I understand though.  I'll be clutching my heart while I wait on the next chapter.  But I have doubts that it'll be any better.

Author's Response:

It seems a lot of folks were not expecting it, but it did have to happen.  Alas, it is going to get worse before it gets better.  But it WILL get better.

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

damn it they were so close. but bella is right they need to work shit out first.

Author's Response:

So close, but yet, so far.

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

EEEK!!!  I want to kill that stupid old lady. but Bella is right. they need to get it together before they can actually BE together. awesome chapter :)

*hugs you for understanding*

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

OMFG....this chapter was many shades of fucked up!!!!!! so she's leaving him just to what work on herself? and they are just gonna wait? UGH this is killing me! but i love you guys and will be patient....

Author's Response:

It's painful, but it has to happen.  They tend to bury their personal issues around each other, enabling each other to cover it up and not deal.  If they kept on like this, eventually, it would blow up in their faces in a far far bigger way.

So, off they go...

Have faith!  You know we're HEA girls at heart!

Don't have to wave the white flag, this had to be done. It was incredible how they came to that conclusion, I was crying likea a baby. I can't wait to see what happens next.

We know it's not easy, but it has to be done.

Oh my God...this one just ripped my heart out!  I wanna beat Aunt Betsy with her walker (if she has one)...what a vapid bitch. Not to mention she friggon cockblocked us. Damn...so close!

 This is def what needs to happen though.  They need to heal themselves first before they can be together.  I hope they don't have to be  apart for long.  Great chpater ladies!

Author's Response:

There is a level of hell just for Aunt Betsy and relatives like her.  What an awful hag!

But you're right.  It did need to happen, sad as it is.

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

Aaaaahhhhh!!!!   This one gets the nomination for "Makes you want to throw the computer!"  Kill off Aunt Betsy and let's get Bella & Edward back on track ASAP!

Author's Response:

LOL!  Yeah, we sort of made things hard.  Aunt Betsy should get her own circle of hell....

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

mmmmm. Seriously? Not sure about this one.

I love your writing, both of you, and I love your stories, but it seems like this impending separation is a bit much - to me at least. I guess I am not familiar enough with mental illness or whatnot, but this just seems to me like she is running away again. And Edward is a saint, because I would just imagine he wants to throw his arms up in the air and say "I give up".

Still, beautiful writing, and I will stay along for the ride.

Author's Response:

We are sorry you feel that way.  Part of her may be feeling like she needs to run, I don't doubt that, but fixing herself, away from Edward who is an enabler to her, is something she needs to do.  We're consulting with several mental health professionals and have been told that we are on the right track (although we do have to adjust for both time frames and to keep the story from stalling, so there is a certain amount of artistic license).

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

Noooo! Gosh. Cliff hanger dude. I really love this story. But jeez I want them together!

Author's Response:

Alas, if we had gotten them together now, it would of collapsed royally. 

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

This chapter was gut wrenching but in my eyes it had to happen. I am so happy that Bella and Edward talked. She was being extremely mature when she said that they both had to fix themselves and be in a "better place". It was heart breaking but it had to happen. I am so damn proud of Bella. 

I know the path to true love is never easy and I trust in you two. 

Also, the almost sexin' was was really hot but I can only imagine how passionate and loving it will be when both of them emerge from this stronger than ever before.

Thank you for sharing this story with us.

Author's Response:

*hugs you for understanding*  It's ugly and painful, but it had to happen.

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

Ok 1st of all the Aunt needs to die LOL. And I can see why Bella is leaving but I just want you to let it be a happy at the end. I hope Bella don't go back and never talk to Edward are come back. Can't wait for more.

Author's Response:

We are both HEA girls, so don't worry too much.

 

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

God, that was heartbreaking.  Stupid fucking Aunt whoever the hell she is.  As hard as it was to read, it was an amazing chapter!

Such a well written almost consumated lemon, lol.  I really like this chapter, I am glad that Bella is starting to see that she is letting these inner demons control too much.  Someone needs to bitch slap the aunt.  I'm just saying.....

Thanks for sharing your story with us, I look forward to your next update.

Author's Response:

*hugs you for understanding why we went this route*

And yes, there is a special circle of hell for relatives like Aunt Betsy!
