All Isabella Swan ever wanted was to be noticed; to be remembered, to be happy, and hopefully, one day that someone could love her. But as a twenty-eight-year-old virgin with only one true friend, Bella has started to come to the stark realization that maybe she's just made to live alone.

***Tissue Warning***

Edward broke Bella's heart the night she came home, wanting to share the happiest news of their lives. She leaves but stays in the marriage for appearances sake. After years apart Bella has decided that she finally wants to move on.

What will Edward do when he realizes that Bella intends to end their marriage? Fight for her? Or Set her free?

A NYC barman views his mind reading as an isolating cancer, until he meets the lonely 28yr old trying to escape her heartbreaking reality.  Edward has had a life full of harsh lessons.  He trusts nobody.  Bella is faced with an uphill battle in her day-to-day existence.  She never complains about the hand life has dealt her, including when a beautiful boy treats her badly, because she doesn't believe she deserves anything better.  AH ExB

Bella's family is attacked by vampires when she is young, leaving her the sole survivor. Rescued by Dr Carlisle Cullen, she is adopted into his 'vegetarian' family, consisting of him, his wife Esme and their three sons Emmett, Edward and Jasper. Struggling with her trauma, Bella finds herself developing special bonds with each of the Cullen boys.

This story has no Alice or Rosalie (or at least, not as vampires or Cullens).

Cheers to the lovely ms_ambrosia and CatMasters for the gifs.

“Son, you are here to receive a precious gift.  It is one that my father bestowed upon me, and his father bestowed upon him—one I will pass on to you now and expect that you give to your own sons when it is time.”

“You are a Cullen, and were therefore born with certain natural—endowments—that predispose you to success with women.  But, there is a beauty in sex which, if you could only grow to appreciate it—an art which, if you could only commit to learning it—will bring you and the women in your life such divine fulfillment as most mortals never know.  It is the art of worship, Edward, and it has very little to do with sex.”

Bella moves to Seattle to start college when she meets Edward, a guy she is drawn to but who is unattainable, and James, a nice guy that she decides she might settle for. But does she really know James, who is becoming very possessive? ExB AU/AH

Rising Star Edward Cullen is trapped in a fauxmance he's ready to end. While filming a movie, he's drawn to a pair of very distracting brown eyes. Within the trials of a new relationship, they discover themselves and each other. AH canon pairings lemons

This is the tale of Robsten...from the beginning. 

After finding a child abandoned on the streets of Seattle, Bella Swan raises him as her own. What happens to their lives when his biological family is finally found?

*INDEFINITE HIATUS*

All through high school, Bella was in love with her best friend who was in love with her, too.  Both never expressing their feelings and never knowing how the other felt.  In the end, Edward decided to go across the other side of the country leaving Bella with only one memory of him: his journal. Heart-broken and confused by it’s content, she casted it aside. Years later, Edward moves back home, but Bella wants to move on with her life.  Can they really stay away from each other, or will history repeat itself?

You know those fics where Edward doesn't come back and Bella forgets about him and five seconds later she's in bed with Jacob and none of it makes any damn sense?
Yeah, this isn't one of them.

This story picks up from the moment in New Moon when Jacob has driven Bella home after the cliff diving incident, right before he catches the scent of Alice. Only in this telling, Alice wasn't looking, so there's no sudden appearance at Bella's house, no Rosalie calling Edward and sending him on a suicidal mission to Volterra, and no reason for Bella to do anything but believe that Edward didn't love her anymore. This is simply a story of what might have happened if everyone stayed mostly in character and Edward's return was delayed. Yes, delayed. Because we all know that he was "this close" to coming back on his own anyhow.
So what would have happened if Bella had tried to move on with her life?  Would she have found happiness with Jacob?  And would Edward be too late?

* First in a series of stories

~I thought of Jacob’s warm arms wrapped around me, his infectious laughter, and his ability to keep me from falling to pieces again… The pain choking my heart relaxed and I could breathe.~

~“More than anything,” I whispered, not caring what I'd just agreed to. When it came to Bella, it didn't matter what the question was. I just wanted.~
