This is Breaking Dawn from Edward's POV, using the same scenes and dialogue but with new scenes added as well -- the latter of which are entirely the product of my over-active imagination. New scenes include the lemons sorely lacking from the original.

Edward is a 27-year-old alcoholic/addict struggling with his recovery. Bella is a 23-year-old who's moved back home after college. This fic chronicles how they meet, fall in love, and struggle with the complexities of their relationship. Not nearly as maudlin as it sounds (I hope).

Rated NC-17 for graphic (and sometimes non-romantic) sex, drug and alcohol use and abuse, profane language, and brief (very brief) suicidal ideation (although NO suicide attempts). No sexual assault, no cutting.

It's 1941, and Bella Swan lives in the US territory of Hawaii with her father, Admiral Charlie Swan. Bella and Edward Cullen grew up together and were best friends until a falling out when they were 12. Now both 18, Edward and Bella come back together after realizing their intense attraction and feelings for each other. Just as their passions are coming to fruition, tragedy strikes and the United States is thrust into World War II. Edward, already bound for the US Naval Academy at Annapolis, is duty-bound to fight and defend his country.

Will Edward and Bella's love be enough to see them through one of the most trying times in history?

"Love between sexes is a sin in theology, a forbidden intercourse in jurisprudence,
 a mechanical insult in medicine, and a subject philosophy has no time for."

- Karl Kraus

*~But I prefer to go with~*

"Love forbids you not to love."

- Umberto Giordano

Edward & Jasper were roommates in University.  It's been eight years and they both have wives and new lives now, but a three day reunion will force them to examine the relationship they chose never to explore and leave behind so many years ago.

*SLASH STORY*

“I’m afraid if we leave from this place,” he hesitated, “from this car, it won’t happen.  Something will stop us again, you’ll change your mind or something and I don’t think I could bear it.”

“I’m in this,” I said with complete honesty.  

Bella is married...for now...and starts a new job at a local bank. Edward Cullen is a ruthless overachiever that will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Their two worlds collide...will she be able to soften his hardened heart? Eventual Canon couples...AH!!! A bit OOC.

Death isn't the end...

A supernatural tale of love and terror.

2nd place as "Outstanding story" in the Shimmer Awards 2011

It is 1943 and WW II is devastating Europe. Edward Masen is a 23 years old American parachutist sent by the OSS on a secret mission, meant to help the partisans fighting the Nazis in Northern Italy. There he meets a girl concealing a terrible secret. They fall passionately in love and plan to marry as soon as Italy is liberated. However, while going back to the Allied lines and trying to reach Anzio, where the Anglo American forces are struggling to break through Germans’ opposition, Edward finds his nemesis, in the form of two Volturi warriors.

Edward is now a newborn vampire, fierce, desperate and bloodthirsty. Will he succumb forever to his inner monster or will he be able to recover at least some of his lost humanity? Will he see his love again and resist the urge to kill her? 

My parents and relatives told me many times of the day when Rome was liberated, much earlier than Northern Italy, and how joyful they felt. It was June 4th, 1944.

The American troops entered our city passing through Via Casilina and Porta Maggiore. It was a triumph. People cheered, girls threw flowers, kids got rides in the Jeeps. Romans were free, after 20 years of dictatorship followed by Nazi occupation. It was as if a gray leaden cloak had been lifted and everybody could breathe again. I dedicate The Parachutist to those brave, smiling American boys.

 Thank you, hellacullen, for the awesome banner!

"But as time went on, I began to see the monster in my eyes. I couldn't escape the debt of so much human life taken, no matter how justified. And I went back to Carlisle and Esme. They welcomed me back like the prodigal. It was more than I deserved."
-Twilight, p. 343.

When Edward returns from his rebellious years, he finds everything has changed-including him. This is the story of Edward's "Da Capo:" ‘return to the beginning.'

The night provides an escape for Bella, but it also brings uncertainty. It's a good thing she isn't afraid of the dark.
