Summary: 
What if Bella’s thoughts on the plane flying back to Seattle from Italy take her in a different direction from the plot in New Moon? Just where could a little twist of fate take the characters? An indepth look at Bella's thoughts and feeling at the end of New Moon and into an AU Eclipse.
Canon couples, and rated NC17 just to be safe. I am Bella and Edward all the way, so if you like Bella and Jacob, then I am afraid this is not the story for you.

So loving your story. Thank you for writing again!
Summary: 
Edward, Bella and Alice are drawn into a no-win scenario in Volterra after Edward's attempted suicide-by-Volturi in the Palazzo dei Priori . Aro confronts Edward to make an impossible choice, with Alice as Aro's unwitting accomplice. How will Edward's choice affect his reunion with Bella, and what future can they hope to salvage in the aftermath?
Story begins in New Moon, during Chapter 21, "The Verdict," but enters the AU when Aro reads Alice's mind...
AU, but canon through New Moon, with canon pairings.

I love what you are doing here. Making the babies more like babies, letting Edward hear Bella (not sure how that's going to work - but you've done such a good job with the rest - I'm trusting you to have not left her unprotected).
I love this story. It's difficult and heart-rending, but seems very true.

I just read this story to date today. I am loving Southerncomfortward! Bella with a backbone & some maturity is nice, too. I'm glad someone brought up the lack of obvious condom use a few chapters back and that you've been writing it in (for the most part) ever since.

Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Coming and Going
Is Bella going to drop a hint that Edward should finally pop the question?
Summary: Summary: AU. A powerful group of humans know of the existence of vampires and werewolves and strict rules are in place for the uneasy coexistence between the three kinds. Transforming humans without tacit permission is banned and all violators and victims are ordered destroyed. Bella was attacked when she was eight years old but miraculously survived. She returns to Forks during her junior year in high school and encounters the Olympic Coven. Against her will, she is drawn to Edward Cullen and into the dangerous world of shifting loyalties and deadly intrigue.

Thanks to JO (Cullenitis) for the AWESOME banner!

Title: Chapter 26: Full Circle
This is a really interesting take on the characters in a very well written novella. I hope you write more, you have quite a talent.
Summary: Bella Swan, a young registered pharmacist from New Jersey, takes a job in the Forks, WA Regional Hospital, determined to start her life over. She meets the handsome, brooding Edward Cullen, who also works in the hospital's pharmacy...but on the night shift, of course.
Will Edward be able to control his agonizing thirst for Bella's blood? How will the emotionally wounded Bella react to her increasing attraction to him? Can Jacob be effective as a minor, if consequential, character? And most important, can Serendipitous refrain from the gratuitous use of hokey questions to attract readers?

Huge thanks to the talented and generous Anne Cullen for the banner!
Canon pairings; the Cullens are still vampires. Edward's and Bella's ages are advanced to their early-mid 20s, to give them more adult sensibilities. Other than that, the story parallels "Twilight," with some new adventures in line with the characters' ages and situations. The chapters alternate between Edward's and Bella's POV. While it's not a *funny* version of "Twilight," there are definite sparks of humor in it.

I hope that this doesn't go as terrible as it did in the books. No stupid running with several fights. A 23 year-old Edward has just got to have more sense than that.
Otherwise - great chapter! I love this Bella! Author's Response:
Hmmm.....I can't say very much because I don't want to give anything away. Edward does want to get Bella out of there ASAP, which makes sense -- why tempt fate? They'll make it back to Washington, but I won't say anything more about that yet. I do hope you'll enjoy it.
Thanks for reading! I'm glad you like Bella.
Summary:
Bella is soul-searching at a quiet lodge in Forks and she meets the secretive, tormented Edward Masen. Just as their relationship transcends friendship, Edward’s past comes back to haunt him in the most brutal way. B&E are human, but oh…there will be vampires. AU.

Title: Chapter 26: Chapter 26: Eggshells & Grand Scales Pt. 1
Another great chapter! I'm excited to see where the Cullens fit into this.
Summary: We've all turned the pages on the four blank months in New Moon. Edward left Bella in the woods and told her didn't want her anymore; his arrogance expected that she would just move on with her life. What he never expected was that she wouldn't be able to move on any more than he would. An angry Bella is something he couldn't fathom. What he didn't take into account is that Bella believes that true love is worth fighting for, and she's going to fight to keep Edward and her family. The Cullen abandonment hurt her deeply, but she's turned that pain into rage. What will happen when Bella decides to let them know she's not willing to let them walk away and leave her behind? How will they handle one mere human girl that's extremely pissed off, and willing to do whatever takes to bring them back? The saying "hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" has never rang more true. Bella's angry and on the warpath. Not even a clan of vampires will be able to stop her.

"My heart may have fractured when he left me, but I adamantly refuse to let it shatter. I'm stronger than that, and I'm ready to get nasty. This is going to be a side your family has never seen out of me. I hope you're prepared, because when I'm done taking your stupid, arrogant brother down a few notches, I'm coming after you. Yes, you heard me correctly. You may be small, fast, and graceful, but I'm filled with enough rage at this point to go vampire on your pixie, ballerina ass!" ~Bella - Chapter 2: Voicemails

I liked how it played out - all of it. Thanks for not changing Bella just because of an accident - I always find that annoying. Author's Response: I'm so glad you enjoyed it! No, Bella was never going to be changed because of this accident. I know a lot of people that she would be and they were especially annoyed at Edward's hesitation about it. Bella's certainly going to have something to say about waking up and still being human though. ;) Thank you so much for sticking with me during my absence, for reading and also reviewing. I deeply appreciate it. =)

Summary:

"His agony defines him. His memories destroy him.
But his hope is what sustains him, feeds him, encourages him. It's his purpose. And he doesn't deny it.
Offered the chance to leave all pain and misery behind, Edward knew that it was better to suffer his loss than to forget it. For in having it, Bella remains his and only his.
To forget would be the ultimate betrayal, abandoning her once again to a world of lonliness and despair. He had already done that once upon a time, and he did so spectacularly.
He'll find her. He has to.
HE HAS TO."
- icrodriguez (the most beautiful review I have ever received. THANK YOU for allowing me the honour of displaying it here. It sums up the tone of this story beautifully, hearts, Erin)
Left in the woods, an unfortunate run-in with Laurant and 45 years later - Bella finds herself facing everything she has ever wanted. Does it want her back? What will she discover about how Edward has been spending his time...

Summary:  
EPOV. Edward is having trouble balancing his urges for Bella's blood and Bella's body before the wedding. What started out as a simple "Practice Fic" has become a retelling of BD from EPOV that lets us see just how much he struggles for control at every turn.
Warning: Edward's got issues. Some dark images and angst, but nothing too bad and quickly giving way to steamy goodness.

I love this version of the "untold" bits from EPOV. I think the relationship is a lot more believable than the overly sweet one in the books.
Double-checking BD - the Voltari overthrew the Romanians over fifteen hundred years before, not fifteen thousand. Author's Response: I even knew that, but for some reason typed thousand! LOL. I was thinking one thousand five hundred, and before I wrote the hundred the thousand part stuck! Grrr!! Thanks for pointing that out!
Summary: 
*Banner by time_lights over at Livejournal*
After receiving an invitation to write the biography of the severely reclusive author Ethan Church, Bella develops a reluctant obsession with his novels and by extension him. When she accepts his offer, the old, dying man she's presented with and the young, too perfect man she comes across on the nearly empty estate have her convinced she's missing some very important parts of the story.

THIS STORY HAS BEEN PUT ON HIATUS. At least until september-october 2010. I am getting married in august and it's hard to plan a wedding and write at the same time. I applaud those who can do that. I am NOT giving up on this story and I WILL finish it. Eventually. Thanks for understanding.
After Edward left in New Moon, Bella changed. She changed everything about herself in hopes of forgetting him. She graduated and moved down to California. The one place she knew she would never see the Cullens. 4 years later, she is now known as Elle Swan, a successful interior designer. What happens when she is sent somewhere else for her job?
Thank you to heatherdawnc for the banner!
Favorite review so far:
Ahh... so good!! A perfect mix with fluff and reality, you're soo good at writing that I gets envious *envious sigh*.
Have I told you how good this story and idea really is. There are many different stories where Bella changes her personality drastically after Edward left. And of all those stories I have been reading I think you are the one that has captured Bella's personalty best. Many of the stories have changed Bella that much that if she wasn't namned Bella you shouldn't know it was her, but you, even if you see the big changes, you can find the Bella how she was shy, sweet and madly in love with Edward four years ago. With another words - I think you are the one that have captured Bellas character best.

I'd like to see them get more intimate. It's unreal when they go from fairly chaste kissing to sex in one night. Not a way for a vampire to build up his self-control!

Author's Response: Thank you! Just to let you know, this story is on a little hiatus. Like a 6 month hiatus because I'm getting married in 6 months and everything is coming down at once! Thank you for the review!
Summary:
The dim memories of being pregnant shook me to the core, and before I knew it, I was snarling at him. The sounds flowing from me were animalistic, feral, and very frightening. I was like a vicious dog, a screaming cat, engaging another of my kind in a brilliant display of nature.
The only sounds in the meadow were the wind and the leaves tossing back and forth; the animals, sensing the coming violence, had fallen silent and retreated further into the woods. Even the sunlight, which had been shining brightly in La Push, had become muted by the sudden appearance of cloud cover. Nature was cowering in anticipation of what was about to happen.
In an act of desperation, Edward conspires with Carlisle and the pack, to save Bella's life. The plan is simple: The wolves provide a distraction so Edward can drug Bella without the interference of his family. The plan is put into action, and, when it's all over, the only thing that remains is an unquenchable desire for revenge.
