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***

When Bella and Edward meet the first day of High School, he is a chubby misfit with no friends in a new town, aside from his popular cousins.  He meets Bella Swan, a well-liked, if uncoordinated, local with problems of her own.  This is the story of their friendship, their loss, their love and destruction.  Can they find their way back to each other?  And can they survive the changes they have both gone through since the fateful day they met?

HUGE THANKS TO ATHENALOVE and READERGOOF FOR THE AMAZING BANNERS!

Edward is dared to do something stupid by his older cousin, Emmett.  Jasper and Emmett stand back and watch.

"Yeah, but do you think we should've told him that she's the police chief's daughter?"

One dare, one purse and two unsuspecting vicitms lead to a series of pranks and events that will change their lives.

“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.”

Edward's family hire Bella Swan to break the heartbreaker's heart in hopes to have him see the error of his womanizing ways. Bella realizes that they have a little too much in common and is having a little too much fun with this subject. EXB Lots of lemons later.

Bella is shocked when her sexy but standoffish lab partner, Edward, friends her on Facebook.  Will her best friend, Alice, convince her to accept Edward’s friend request?  Or, will she write it off as a prank of the conceited, spoiled rich kid she knows Edward to be?

Nascence to ending, Eliza Masen to Isabella Swan. Human suffering, supernatural horror.  Between waking and dreaming, wanting, needing, there is a fantastical reason. Vampire. Human. Man, woman, lover. A singular hope for love and the ONE thing you never thought possible. Edward/Bella. AU. M.

AU, canon pairings.

Bella finds her artistic muse and total embarrassment in life model Edward.  How can she get him to model for her when he thinks she is a sex-crazed flake?  AU-AH, M for graphically described nudity, language, lemons.  Canon pairings.

“It’s all real. They did this, but I’m still here. Always, Bella. Find me.”

Those cryptic words, whispered in a last breath, continue to haunt Bella Swan five years after the supposed death of her love, Edward Masen.

When Edward first sees Bella, he never suspects that she is different, that she is blind. How will he handle it? This is a story of differences, overcoming obstacles, rebuilding relationships, loss and above all; finding love.

Bella’s blood was just too tempting to be ignored.  In this version of Twilight, Edward takes Bella on a sadistic journey with his monstrous side.  While Edward drags her around the world, barely keeping a step ahead of his frantic family, Bella battles the monster for possession of the gentler vampire inside her captor.  EPOV.

“There was no other blood like this.  Once she was gone, it would no longer be within my grasp.  But if I stopped now, she would heal.  Her body would make more.  The blood would replenish.  I could drink again.  The promise of more – it was the only incentive that could have caused me to stop.”

Edward Cullen is an anomaly as far as Bella Swan is concerned, defying all her preconceived notions about the whorishness of hockey players. Through incessant stalking and persistence, can Edward wears down Bella's resistence and teaches her to embrace her inner hockey hooker? A ridiculous love story.

Bella was told that she would never be a mother. An hour later, she found a baby on her back step. As she fights to keep the child that she knows is the salve for her heart, she is forced to face the horrors of her past, and the difficulty of an ex-flame who doesn't want to give her up gracefully.
