I thought it was a beautiful ceremony.  Even with the ex causing a minor stir.  I'm glad he didn't ruin the evening.



Author's Response:

Hi Maize and Blue,

I'm so glad you enjoyed the wedding...nothing like a great wedding to put other couples in the mood.

Thanks bb.

I thought Bella's conversation with Carlisle was sweet.  I'm sure whatever Edward has planned for her birthday will be wonderful.  I have to say that rounds one and two would be more than enough for me.  What better gift can there be than Edward naked in the bed?



Author's Response:

Hey Maize and Blue,

I got teary over the Bella and Carlisle conversation so I'm glad you liked it. We could all use a Carlisle in our life.

I love how so many readers just wanted to stay indoors with Edward for their birthday-doing activities that don't involve clothes. I guess who needs sightseeing when you can play with Edward!

Thanks for reviewing bb.

Edward did well.  I don't think there was anything he could have done to make it better.  His gifts were well thought out. There is nothing like a gift that means something.  The massage and the extra activities after were on point obviously.  Who wouldn't love that?  Then to include her closest friends in the celebration was just icing on the cake.



Author's Response:

Hi maizeandblue,

I'm glad Edward impressed you with his efforts for Bella's birthday. He really is trying hard to be a good partner for Bella...and in my book, he's doing pretty great too.

Thanks bb.

I would have to say that is a great start to the trip.  I'm glad he decided to meet with his father.  At some point it's just best to let things go and move on from it.  Being bitter about what was doesn't do any good.

I have to say Edward handled things much better than I thought he would.  I think I would piss him off at least once a week just for the angry sex.

Paloma is a hoot.  Edward handled that situation pretty well.  I imagine it was easier to deal with since it was a woman.

I have to say as painful as it was he handled it better than I thought he would.  He needs time and space to sort through his feelings. 



Author's Response:

Hi MaizeandBlue,

You are right-Edward needs time to sort through his feelings.

The good news is that if they work this out they will be an even stronger couple. I promise it will be an interesting journey.

Great to hear from you.

Warm Regards,

I really feel for both of them.  Bella has to do what's best for her.  I know he has issues but he has to be willing to work through all of his concerns  if he loves her like he says he does.  He needs to make the effort.  She has done it enough.



Author's Response:

Hi Maize and Blue,

I'm glad you feel for both of them. The key is that they need to calm down and talk things out. Let's see if they make any progress next chapter.

Thanks for reviewing bb.

These two are so passionate and sometimes that shows in the form of their epic arguements but at the end of the day they love and support each other.  I know their time apart won't be easy but I am feeling better about things.



Author's Response:

I'm glad you are feeling better about things maize and blue...they do love and support each other even if they stumble once in a while.

You have to write the story as you see fit.  Perhaps Edward has some unresolved issues he needs to settle with her.  A little closure never hurt anyone.

Date: February 19, 2011 Title: Chapter 56: Chapter 56-More

I'm sure Tanya won't back off so easily.  Edward will have to deal with her at some point.  He will have to show her that he's no longer interested.  I'm certain one short conversation will be enough to convince her.

 
Reviewer: maizeandblueinvalpo Signed
Date: February 26, 2011 Title: Chapter 57: Chapter 57-Captain Fantastic

Tanya is a bit stalkerish isn't she?  It was nice to see Edward doing the comforting and reassuring for a change.  He seems to be in a better place in regards to Bella's impending move.



Author's Response:

Hi maizeandblue,

Yes, unfortunately Tanya is stalkerish which isn't helping things. It is good that Edward has been in a better place-he's going to need it for what faces him up ahead.

Thanks for reviewing...see you Saturday bb.

It will be interesting to see her reaction to that.

It's obvious that he really took their time apart to think about he wanted.  I'm glad he was able to convey his feelings so concisely.  He left no doubt about how he saw their future.  I really appreciated that he didn't try to force the issue.  He was letting her decide how things were going to go.



Author's Response:

Hi maizeandblueinvalpo,

Rob has definitely come a long way throughout the story. He knows exactly what he wants now, but as you said, he's not forcing it. He's leaving it all up to Gemma to decide what she wants to do. So... we'll see! :)

Thanks so much for your review and your continued support! Last chapter coming up next, wah!

I think Gemma might need a night of recovery after all of that physical activity.

Haha! I think you might be right! We'll see what the girls' night out brings... :)

Thanks so much for continuing to read and review!

They held out for longer than I thought they would.  I was surprised she didn't mount him while they were in the pool.  I am glad they are finally going to talk things out.



Author's Response:

Hey maizeandblueinvalpo,

Hehee, nope! She didn't mount him. They were trying so hard to be good, weren't they? They did a good job, for a while. :)

Thanks for reading and reviewing!

I'm feeling a little better about Rob now, but he has to work on communcating with Gemma.



Author's Response:

Hey maizeandblueinvalpo,

Great to see you again! I'm glad you're feeling a bit better about Rob now. He definitely freaked out on Gemma in the last chapter, but really, he's usually completely honest with her. He normally just blurts out anything that he thinks! Hopefully there won't be too many communication problems in the future. 

Thanks so much for reading. The next chapter shouldn't be too far away. Hope to see you back again soon! :)

I would think being at Rob's with their friends in tow would make things a lot easier than if it was just the two of them.



Author's Response:

Hi maizeandblueinvalpo,

I think you're right - being surrounded by their friends will always make things lighter and easier for Rob and Gemma. We'll see how they all go in the next chapter!

Thanks so much!

Yes they are quite enamoured with each other.  Poor Sarah and Dan having to listen to them go at it all night.



Author's Response:

Hehee, I know! Poor Sarah and Dan. Enamoured with each other is a great way to describe Rob and Gemma at the moment.

Thanks for reading! More coming up soon. :)

Yep, Max's party should be very interesting indeed! We find out what they decide in the next chapter. :)

Communication isn't always easy.  Especially with someone you haven't known for very long.  They are making an effort.  That was sweet of him to make the cheesy pasta bake.  Even sweeter of her to eat it.



Author's Response:

Hiya maizeandblueinvalpo,

You're so right - communication is a difficult thing and something they're definitely still working on. They adore each other and always try so hard to work through things. They'll be okay. :)

Hehee, your last comment made me giggle. It was very sweet of Rob to try to make the cheesy pasta bake for her - but you're the only one who pointed out that it was nice of her to eat it! Love it!

Thanks so much for taking the time to read and review.

I'm glad she talked to him about Kristen.  Might as well put those cards on the table.  Nick was much more pleasant than I thought he would be.



Author's Response:

Hi maizeandblueinvalpo,

I'm glad Rob and Gemma talked about Kristen too. They've always been honest with each other from the start - that's partly why they get along so well, really. And ooh, Nick. I have a little theory that Nick is not as nasty as he comes across in photos. He has his moments, but no, he's not really a baddie in this story! 

Thanks so much for continuing to read and review. :)

Good for Ally for taking a risk.  I don't know how Gemma is going to make it through the night.  I'm surprised the poor girl hasn't spontaneously combusted at this point.



Author's Response:

Hey maizeandblueinvalpo,

Yay for Ally and Marcus! And hehee, we'll have to wait and see how Gemma makes it through the night. Spontaneous combustion may not be out of the question at this point, poor girl. :)

Thanks so much for reading and reviewing!

SO glad she decided to take a chance. I have really enjoyed this story. Even the bits with the heartfail. Wasn't expecting a sequel. Really looking forward to that.



Author's Response:

Hi maizeandblueinvalpo,

So great to hear you enjoyed the chapter, as well as the whole story. Thanks so much for all your lovely reviews and support along the way, I honestly appreciated each and every one. :)

Hope to see you back for the sequel in a few months time!
