Hopefully this will be re-released and we can get the rest later.  Thanks it was GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for reading and reviewing!

Hmm, was it just me or did the pictures not come through at all? And I think I lost some of the text as well. I'll have to try and read it on a computer, maybe it's just that my phone fucked it up.

K, *squee* they kissed! A whole bunch of heartache and fear, but they kissed and Bella let herself go! Woot!

I love your story proudly and can't wait for the next chapter, whenever it may be.

I like that they are working through their issues and that they are willing to stand up for what they want.  I think the ice is starting to melt and I am curious to see what the next step is and who will make it!  I also love that Jessica was humiliated at the bar.  Drinks over head seemed quite fitting! LOL

hey i really loved this chap xd so emotional

OMG you girls put me through the ringer on this one. Holy hell i thought Edward was gonna bail again. I was like screaming at my computer screen going "dont you dare you asshole, you fight for her". The emotion in the last 2 chapters has totally drained me. You ladies sure know how to make someone ache inside. Very powerful writing. Congrats on another excellent chapter. Cant wait for the next one.

hehe, Edward has a pretty peen

*giggles*

Oh my god you made me bloody cry. And I never cry.

Geez.  I now get to breathe easy.  For the moment.

I want to kick Bella in the ass.  I cannot stand how little she thinks of herself.  But, I have to understand why she feels the way she does.  She was completely broken by the one person she trusted wholly. 

Still it's been 8 frickin years.  I was really hoping she was a bad ass that didn't take shit and didn't lend out her heart.  That Bella would have been easier to read about.

This Bella is heartbreaking.  She is totally broken and will need a lot of work to e put back together.

I guess this is where the fun begins.  My problem is always that I don't want her to forgive easily.  BUT, there has to be a point to where enough is enough and Bella moves forward.  So I just hope she does for all the right reasons and not just because she feels she can't do better.

Tammy you do not need to reply to this review as it is nothing more than a response to your response.  But I wanted to thank you for your reply.  I made me feel like you are holding my hand going into the next chapter.

"It is sad, but these two are on the road to making things right again.  Her going to him is a step in the right direction.  Let's see where they go now."

It really made me feel better!

I am getting really annoyed with Bella. She let what Edward saidaffect her WAY too much. I would have slapped him & been like 'fuck you. i know who i am and i'm not a whore.'

Well it wasn't just what he said, but she istaking steps towards him now which is a good thing.  Thank you for your review.

This might be the Queen of all "rip your heart out and fucking stomp on it" stories.

There were a couple of chapters (I just read them all in one sitting) that I came close to shutting it down and not going on.  But, damn it, now I have to know how it turns out.

I don't even know what I think about how they both handled it.  They both handled it like shit, that's for sure.  I have to give Edward more credit, though.  He tried and tried and tried to contact her and tell her he was sorry and that he knew he was wrong.  Bella just hightailed it out of there and shut herself off from life. 

So.. even though I think Bella took the victim role to heart and completely wussed out, I can't help but thinking (about Edward) that the stupid fucker better make this right.

He will try to make it right if she will trust him enough to allow him to do so.  Thank you for reading and reviewing!

“Euphoria. She was untouched.  I could be her only. Mine.”

 

To own and be owned is one of the greatest things a person can experience, so long that you own the very being who owns you in return. Such completion is a miracle in itself. It gives a life purpose, a reason for being, and an answer to every question that rumbles beneath one’s surface.

 

Fate can take hold of one’s path in life, twist it, bend it, very nearly break it so that it’s will is made permanent, etched into the fabric of one’s experiences, successes, and even follies. At times it seems cruel in the pain it inflicts, the agony it lays bare before you. As you wander through life, it is these agonies that often shape the people we become, the shapes our souls take, yielding to fate’s every push and pull. But it is not until something wonderful happens, not until we experience true wonder and awe at a turn of events in our lives that force us to bow to fate’s design and applaud it’s role in our happiness, that we revel in fate’s existence at all. We become blind, deaf, and dumb to the reason for why things happen at all. Especially that which brings us pain and grief.

 

But beyond the pain, beyond the hurt, and beyond the despair, one’s true purpose lays in waiting….waiting to be claimed.

 

First comes the why. Then follows the how. But it is the journey in reaching the answers to our purpose that true discovery and majesty can be found.

 

Euphoria. Just when you least expect it.

Author's Response:

Aww Isabel, your reviews so totaly own my ass.  You spout poetic and I am all mush. 

You see it so clearly, that he seeks her for completion and hopes that she might want him in return, that maybe she has only ever wanted him.  Whereas he tried to fill the void she left, she let the void fill her, and maybe then can heal each other and get past this.

Thank you so much!
