Both Bella and Edward expected different reactions from the news of their moving together. Almost none was what they thought it would be. They were asked to consider things and put Seth first and before anything else. That was were everyone agreed, that Seth should be thought of at all times. What they didn't know is how much Seth wanted and needed this. His father will always be Jacob, but he needs someone there, present to do the everyday stuff with. Edward is more than happy to be his "dad" and Bella too.

As for Billy, his fear of loosing Seth is greater than anyone thought. He rather compromise and have Seth near him. Also he has seen how good Edward is with Seth and how much he cares for his grandson. His only request was simple and understandable, that Seth never forgets Jacob. I am sure Edward will be glad to help with that.

I loved this chapter, it was a great ending to the story. A hectic day also. Seth, of course completely excited for his baseball game. Bella and Edward wanting to be there, even if Bella wasn't feeling too good. She is Bella and tried to down play it as long as possible, until it was time to go to the hospital to meet the new member of the family. I am glad it was a girl, that Seth chose the name and that Billy was there. He is part of the family and they all have made him feel that way.

Thanks for sharing your story with us, it has been truly amazing. 

It's said, when in Rome do as the Romans, so if in Vegas, do what you're expected to do there, go to clubs, gamble and ... Edward isn't very happy with his stay there and doing the "regular Vegas things". Of all the places he could end at, he ended where he thinks women are not being considered correctly (trying to put it politically correct). That is until he hears a voice that gets to his core and stares at eyes that hook him. And the sentiments don't feel one-way only. 

Sadly it will be a week before he can prove if it was real or a dream. A long week indeed.

I liked Edward's train of thoughts in the chapter, I'm interested in seeing how he behaves and thinks from here on.

He is back!!!! Back with lots of dark thoughts, that hadn't crossed his mind all week, but back there they did. Fortunately he was told she was there and he even got some help to have her wait on them all night.

Then of course we can't forget Busty Bunny, the nickname is cute, I don't know how much she is going to like it but it's cute. And Emmett is falling hard and has no idea she already knows, lucky guy.

So she's off for the night and he is going after her, lucky for him there was more help waiting. However something was asked in exchange, something thankfully really easy, it will just take some time for the message to reach its destination.

Good, really good. As if labor wasn't hard enough, painful enough, the feelings of fear and nervousness going through Bella who had decided to keep the baby weren't big enough. She has to face the one person she had probably resigned never to see again.

He has to be good at what he does, if he recognized her, his shock must be big, bigger than hers.

They now don't have time to think about what may come next, too much going on in the present.  But when they get there... then what?

Really well written, looking forward to reading more.

It's hard to separate the parts of Edward's guilt. He feels bad because he has a daughter now? Because he "used" Bella? Becasue he dissappeared? He said he had a rough day at work, but that doesn't make it okay for him to act as he did.

Then the other part, he is upset because he acted not as himself, because all the control he usally has in his life was lost that night. Because the one night he wasn't careful apparently had HUGE tiny consequences now trying to sleep in a bassinet. 

From what I can tell, he loves control, he enjoys controling as much as he can. He prides himself for his ethics, until this last delivery where most of the things he holds to value were shattered. He tried to think that Bella might have been with other guys around that time, but something inside him didn't buy that story. And it seems the baby in the nursery is proof that it wasn't like that.

There was a lot of confussion and anger in this chapter, lots of questions to think about. The answer should be interesting...

Wrong impressions, wrong choices have consequences and costs. But as Bella said, there are more important things than a deposit. 

She is trying to be on her own, starting a bit late, but she is trying, that should count, hopefully. 

All of them broke and suddenly Rose is doing more than well. Her roommates have no clue and no guesses? Rosalie must be an amazing actess to have got them to not get too suspicious.

And of course now come the obligatory, how? when? where? etc that Bella will begin to ask, and then how will Rosalie get her friend into it?

Edward was also taken with Bella, so much that his friends caught it as soon as he got home. And they both seem happy to see Edward thinking about someone. The same goes for Bella and the girls.

So... how soon will Edward need to go grocery shopping again? Perhaps for pickles ;)

Lets hope Jake doesn't cause too much trouble for Bella tomorrow.

For someone who just got soaked on picke juice he was extreamly kind and forgiving, and sweet and good looking.

Bella's day had gone well, but it definetely eded much better.

Everything is the same and so different at the same time. She still needs him as much as she needs air. He needs her in the same way. He wants to drop everything and take her away, she knows things aren't that simple anymore. They know they need time, and even if they have all the time in the world, it runs fast and Bella eventually won't be able to keep up. Then what? She has seen a newborn and is very much aware of what that future could hold. At the same time, she knows her life moves ahead with her on tow while Edward remains the same. 

It's a decision that is not easily made and it has only been a day. Can they still share their love with a changed Bella? What about the world around them? 

NOt her fault, they can all say it hundreds of times, and Bella will still have a hard time believing it. But as Quil said, life has risks and dangers and sadly, but true, this would happen sooner or later.

The first concern was to take Bella to safety, and it seemed as if they had accomplished it, but Adrianna, isn't fool, and she figured something like this might happen. So she went after Carlisle, who was, along with Esme, worried about Bella.

So what now? Can Bella be saved? Changed? By whom? What happened?

The Cullens thought Bella had died. And it seems there was evidence of it at Forks. What did they find? It had to be rough for them, but not as it has been for Bella. 

There's a lot she needs to say, and I guess there's a group of vampires who can't wait to listen to what she has to say. However, it seems that might not be happening tonight for what Alice said.

Bella always had a soft spot for Alice and time hasn't changed it, she is still going along with what she is saying.

So a shopping trip on the first day of class. Who else will go?
