Updated November, 2009

This story is now COMPLETE!

Dark Side of the Moon is my version of New Moon from Edward’s point of view.  Witness how Edward agonized over leaving Bella, hunted for Victoria, faced the Volturi, and came to realize that with Bella was where he was meant to be. 

This tormented story has been a part of my life for about a year and a half – and what a ride it’s been!  Meant to be canon and in character, I hope you enjoy angsty Edward and his suffering during New Moon.  As unhappy as Bella was during this time, Edward suffered so much more (I think).  So be sure and crack open a fresh box of tissues before reading!

 Thank you to everyone for all the reviews, especially to those of you who reviewed each and every chapter!  Your support and loyalty have been the driving force to me getting this project finished – and I hope it’s lived up to all of your expectations.

Love you all,

blondieakarobin

PS.  As one last thank you, I’ve posted a formatted, printable copy of Dark Side of the Moon at http://bit.ly/2vLHMi, as will also post as an electronic version suitable for viewing on a kindle or MobiReader.  I’m also posting a ‘Director’s Cut’ that includes citations of all of Bella’s quotes from Twilight, research notes, and even funny comments from my betas in this version in the same directory.

Use of the dialog from the series is just for clarity - Stephenie Meyer owns all things twilight!  I'm making absolutely nothing from this work.

Wow - that was just excellent!  Although with all of the previews I kind of wondered if you wouldn't have Edward push Jake away and have Jake backflip into a shape-shifter and charge Edward.  But I should have known better - as ever you have totally remained true to canon whenever possible and it did not disappoint! 

 

I loved the descriptions in this chapter, especially when describing the vampires crystalline body versus Bella's soft warm body and also the last few paragraphs!  It was like poetry!  thank you so much for thsi excelent story - it will definitely give us all alot to think about when watching the movie in 51 hours and 4 minutes!  Squeee!  I did wonder if you didn't post this chapter tonight for a reason... :)

Loved it!  I laughed out loud when Jasper was goading Edward about Bella wanting to talk about something Edward wouldn't give her - transformation or sex! LOL

The epiphany discussion from Edward's POV was excellent! *sigh* They both had epiphanies regarding how deeply the other loved them!  You are a genius!  You are so good at Edward's angst and yearning!  I can't wait for the next chapter with the whole negotiation over him transforming her and proposal! *sigh* again!

Emmett and the TV also genius - of course it was Emmett's toy that Edward broke - only Emmett could tease Edward to that point of rage!  Well, maybe Rosalie could have as well, but it was clear even in NM that Rosalie wouldn't have been the cause of the outburst - she was (as you showed quite clearly) the only one on his side!  :)

You are a true master - I'm waiting with baited breath for the next chapter!  Thanks for the dedication to this story - it has been so much fun to read and I think hearing your version of Edward's thoughts will enhance all of our movie going experiences on November 20th!  :)  I know I watched Twilight with a whole new appreciation due to Midnight Sun!

Sincerely

Krista

I loved it!  It was nice to have a surprise update for DSotM waiting - it was interesting to see it from Charlie's point of view.  Was Jacob's woldf cameo when Charlie was a zombie and thought he saw something in the tree?  I liked the conversation at the end when Edward snorts at Charlie's thought about Edward taking a hike so Bella can try out his LA number.  And when he suggests Alaska for school and Bella surprises him by saying "Hey, yeah, how about Alaska?" and Edward grimaced, which made Charlie happy...if he only knew why Bella was so excited by Alaska and Edward was grimacing...LOL Thanks for the update!

Sorry, I forgot to mention a couple of things...first I voted for you in all of your categories (novel, canon, best missing moment, and short fiction)- congrats on the nomination and I hope you win!  Also, another favorite part was wqhen Charlie was flipping channels and every other channel there was something to remind him of Bella (kids that runaway for love, John, I'm taking MARIE - nice one!) and then of course, the piece de resistance - the Princess Bride quote about the ROUS's - "I don't believe they exist."  Ha - you couldn't have picked a more fitting movie quote!  Excellent writing as always!

Seducing Ms Swan by Rialle Rated: PG-13 starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 3033]
Summary:

 

AU Post-New Moon.

Bella never jumped, Alice never had her vision and Edward never came back. Six years later, Bella is struggling to make a new life for herself as a teacher in Rochester, New York. How will she fare when a very familiar student crops up in her classroom? Will she be able to remain professional, or will old ties get in the way?

Edward is convinced that getting Bella back is just a matter of 'persuasion', but Bella isn't prepared to be that cooperative. What's more, she's in the grip of a dark secret which threatens to prevent her from loving ever again.

Bella Swan is slipping under...

You did an awesome job of capturing Jacob's "voice"  - it was a good move!  I think you were absolutely right that these chapters needed to come from Jake.  Way to take a risk with your writing!

 
Summary:

 

Bella Swan spent the first two years of her life in Forks developing a friendship with Jacob Black that finally turned into something more.  As she begins her senior year of high school, a new family moves to town and Bella slowly begins to question the path she thought her life would follow.  Sometimes there is a difference between what you think you need and what you never knew you wanted.  Takes place during the timeframe of New Moon and Eclipse.  J/B at first, but eventually E/B.

So, did you find Mrs. Goff in Midnight Sun or did a reviewer give you her name?  I'm coming late to the story, so you must have updated it with the correct name since posting that Author's Note!  I'm really liking what you've written.  I had the same story idea back in January, but chose to focus on writing something else.  It is fascinating to me how so many of us have similar ideas - I, too, wondered what would happen if Bella and Jake got together before the Cullen's came to town.  Was their love inevitable?  WHat kind of loyalty issues would arise if Bella was a wolf girl before being a vampire girl?  I'm so glad you came up with the same idea and keep up the great work!

Your story SOOO does not suck - I'm entranced.  And yes, the perfectly amiable is very Austen - I thought that when I read it, too.  But Edward acted so Mr. Darcy, all haughty, at the beginning of your story, so it works.  Twilight pays homage to Pride and Prejudice after all.  I love that you're setting their time together in English class!  :)  You really are a talented writer- keep it up!

Love the fluff - no need to kill the bunny!!!!

I especially liked the "One hundred and four, actually." 

I was hoping they would read that scene together and Mike having to read the nurse was entertaining as well!  Definitely need to be renamed Sexual Tension Overkill - I was waiting for her to jump over there and kiss him, but that would be so OOC for Bella!

Keep it up!  I'm looking forward to reading more - I love it when I begin a story and it has a whole bunch of chapters for me to read right away!  :)

I thought it was logical for Sam to turn quickly, after all it skipped last generation, so once the vampires arrive, the Quileute genes kick into overdrive - remember how quickly all of the tribal boys turned wolf in Breaking Dawn when all of the vampires were visiting?  You're still in canon!  :)

I loved it - I love how Emmett is teasing Edward - not so subtly at Mike's store!  So has Alice let them in on Edward's side of the story or what?  I love how Edward is saving Bella from the purgatory of lunch!

I loved it and thank you for the OCD for details - I appreciate it!    I didn't think there was too much dialogue - sounded good to me - semicolons and all! Of course, at lunch there was an apple (just like in Twilight - Bella is always eating them - and pizza - again nice attention to detail.  Hope Jessica is all right...I was wondering who was going to be bleeding during gym since Alice had to leave!

Love the Leah, Sam, Emily connection for Jake, Bella, Edward, so Wuthering Heights…J  This was the best chapter yet.  I loved how the pumpkin on the bed side table was a metaphor for how Edward has consumed Bella.  I had a late night reading last night and hope to be up-to-date with your postings tonight.  Seriously – your story is exactly my brand of heroin.  The last time I was this obsessive about reading a story was actually the twilight saga – I read all four and a half novels in six days – I couldn’t put them down.  Last night, I forced myself to go to bed and get some sleep when all I really wanted to do was read just one more of your chapters, but I knew that if I read just one more that I would be up all night reading and I was already exhausted!  J  Can’t wait to read what happens next in your version! Thanks for giving me something good to read again!

Wow, that kiss was wow, so worth waiting for!  I was so excited when I saw the notification of an update that i got butterflies in my stomach!  And then they just kept on coming through the whole chapter. 

 I love the swing symbolism - at first I was like really?  They're going to hang out on the porch again?  Why doesn't she invite him to her room?  But then the Renee story of the swing and B & E hanging out on it twice in the same evening = so romantic. Plus,I had the thought that it was probably really appealing to Edward, like a courting ritual right out of the time period when he would have been courting a sweetheart.  It probably feels more comfortable to him than sitting on the couch watching a Romeo and Juliet DVD on TV. 

 

Thank you so much for the update and keep up the beautiful writing!

I loved Edward's "genius" plan to keep Esme and Alice off of his back after Bella left for trial!  Also his comment about ehr having the "run of the house" while he is at work - what is she a dog?  LOL  - Seriously - loving it!
