Ever since she can remember, Bella Swan has spent Christmas with the Cullens. Ever since she can remember, Christmas has been full of strange Edward-related complications that remain unresolved year after year. Last Christmas, it seemed like their strange affair had finally ended. Bella is keen to resolve her "relationship" and move on with life. But will her feelings remain the same, especially after she finds out that Edward has a new introduction to make?

“This is your wedding, Bella, and it shouldn’t be something you have to merely tolerate.  I want you to want this for you, not because you feel that you owe it to me, Alice or anyone else for that matter!”

Edward grows concerned about Bella in the weeks leading up to their wedding day, as he sees how uncomfortable she is with the idea of a big wedding.  He wants Bella as his wife, but not at the risk of her sanity!  He begins to wonder if there is another option?

Bella is struggling with more than just the thoughts of a fancy wedding; the mere idea of marriage is causing her to stress...

"Nothing about my relationship with Edward was conventional, and I found it hard to reconcile our extraordinary bond with something as staid and traditional as marriage.  I had to tell him though... I cleared my throat, and then stared at the ceiling, unable to meet Edward’s gaze as I spoke the words that would undoubtedly break his heart.  “Maybe I do have some misgivings,” I mumbled, so low and so quickly that it would have been unintelligible to anyone not equipped with supernatural hearing skills."

Thank you to Anne Cullen for the beautiful banner!

Bella thinks she imagines Edward in her bedroom while she is half asleep.

I own nothing. Sigh. I hope you enjoy! Reviews welcome! Takes place in Twilight; no specific place, although it is before Bella is aware that Edward is a vampire. She is as of yet unaware that he watches her sleep. This is Bella’s POV. Bella’s dreams and her reality intertwine.

Set in the 6 week 'blank period' at the end of Eclipse / beginning of Breaking Dawn, between the battle, and the wedding.  Bella and Edward expand and deepen their physical relationship in preparation for their impending marriage.

Bella Swan was your average woman working for a publishing company. She was certain that she was destined to be alone for eternity, much to her mother's dismay. However, two very different yet very similar men happen to walk into her life and change everything.

Hilarity and sex ensue. Loosely based on the movie, "Bridget Jones’s Diary".

An awesome collaboration between XShear (Seducing Edward, Unknown & Smut Series) and kARLOTITA09 (Forever is Where We Meet).
