I recently discovered this story. I really enjoy it, you should continue writing it. :-)

Are you learning piano? I hope you are, it's amazing, and I've been playing since I was like four or five. I absolutely love classical music and sonatinas. So beautiful. Oh, and jazz. I love your story too!

Thank you, THANK YOU!  You have made Edward so much more believable in his all too understable frustration and lust... were this story to have ever happened this is a more true to life reaction from an immortal who is just waking up to the world of feelings, lust and love.  Thank you for taking all this time.  You are a wonderful writer.  I was thinking when you wrote the part near the waterfall/hot pools that your own "voice" is very believable and you should work on more original stuff.  Let us know if you ever decide to.  I'd buy it  :-)

Yes, yes, yes! Woodlily is back! I loved this story, one of the first fanfoics ive read. Your writing is so tender, passionate, truthful...please keep the updates coming. Love the departures from cannon, and love your delving into the complexities of other characters. Wonderfulness!

YAY finally you wrote again! it was great please write soon :)

I'd never claim to understand Rosalie. I didn't understand her in the books, and I rarely understand her in fanfics... Must be a glitch in my brain or something... But it was nice to see that she isn't just hateful.

Edward is very confused about what he's experiencing right now, isn't he? I don't know what could help him best, but brooding in a glacier probably didn't ;-) Maybe he should talk to someone?

The Quileutes are going to become a problem in the near future, I'm guessing... Prejudices... *shakes head*

so u wanted opinions about past kissing?

u know, in every book u read, or in a movie, when there is kissing, there is so much description about how it affects the heart, the emotions, the bones; how the kiss is a confirmation of so many lovely things - its practically a spiritual orgasm in itsself the way many stories portray it.  and not to mention when couples begin to discuss past relationships, i don't think i've read a story where they don't feel jealousy when they hear about it, even tho it's long in the past.  i think that this (unconciously) shows what on average everyone feels about love - they want to be the only one.   for one, because the count is never equal - one will always have 'more' in their past than the other, making it uneven.   secondly, its also really awesome to both start at the same point and explore and learn, starting at that point up and into extreme bliss.  

personally i think that this is the reason that stephanie meyers story has touched so many people - because these two are ONLY for each other.  secretly everyone wants that - to be that one person that someone notices, to be the one that wakens the love and lust of someone (preferably a hot loner vampire =) who will then dedicate everything to conquering and wooing them.  when there have been other, then it seems as tho pieces of that person have been given to that other, those pieces will never come back, will never be yours.  

Well, so far I am loving there trip to the trees and the hot springs! So very nice that they tend to kiss like normal teenagers, and I love that Edward wants Charlie to know that he is dating Bella. He wants to be firmly established in her life! Wonder how things at school will go?

Hey, i'm new on the site and this is my first review, so sorry if it's a mess.

 I tried to fiend the story that you mentioned in you'r end of chapter note and I had some trouble, could you send me a link to it, i would really like to read it.

and btw i'm really enjoying you's story so far. In my opinion you stayed true to the initial personalities of the caracter's (witch in my experience was very rare) but the story still feels new and refreshing. for now i'm completely addicted to it.

about you'r question I do think it is pretty irealistic that Edward never kissed someone, eaven if he was never atracted to anibody else than Bella, in my opinion it would had made much more sens that he would had at least kissed someone and then decide to folow his gut. But I'l admit that in my ideal world neather one of them (bella and edward) would have ever looked at anibody appart from eachother.

so keep up the good work

Well, I do love it when you take liberties with canon! I was half expecting Edward to have a coughing fit to wake Bella up!

Completely enjoyable-  your Edward POV is spot on & makes for an excellent revisiting of this scene.  I can't wait to see your non-canon half of this chapter!

I love it. I can imagine a giddy Edward arriving home. It is nice to see a different side of him.

Thanks again! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. I'm tempted to leave Edward in this happy place for a while; we'll see though. It's really fun torturing him, too. I can't decide! Hehe, Aren't I mean?

The next chapter's in the works. I'm enjoying writing about Bella's visit to his house.

Take care. All the best,

~W

I REALLY love this story! i'm looking forward to the next chapter!
