And Then, As The Room Went Black, I Was Suddenly Hyperaware That Edward Was Sitting Less Than An Inch From Me. I Was Stunned By The Unexpected Electricity That Flowed Through Me, Amazed That It Was Possible To Be More Aware Of Him Than I Already Was. A Crazy Impulse To Reach Over And Touch Him, To Stroke His Perfect Face Just Once In The Darkness, Nearly Overwhelmed Me. I Crossed My Arms Tightly Across My Chest, My Hands Balling Into Fists. I Was Losing My Mind.

You Are The Most Important Thing To Me Now. The Most Important Thing To Me Ever.

If There Was A Jane Austen Camp, I Would Go, No Question.

Our Relationship Couldn't Continue To Balance, As It Did, On The Point Of A Knife. We Would Fall Off One Edge Or The Other, Depending Entirely Upon His Decision, Or His Instincts. My Decision Was Made, Made Before I'd Ever Consciously Chosen, And I Was Committed To Seeing It Through. Because There Was Nothing More Terrifying To Me, More Excruciating, Than The Thought Of Turning Away From Him. It Was An Impossibility.

I Love You. You're My Only Reason To Stay Alive... If That's What I Am.

Carlisle: "i've Seen Vampire Venom Work Miracles, But There Are Conditions That Even Venom Cannot Overcome."

Ian Didn't Come. He Just Sat Here With You--he Said He Didn't Care What You Looked Like. He Wouldn't Let Anyone Else Put A Finger On Your Tank At All, Not Even Me Or Mel. But Doc Let Me Watch This Time. It Was Way Cool, Wanda. I Don't Know Why You Wouldn't Let Me Watch Before. They Wouldn't Let Me Help, Though. Ian Wouldn't Let Anyone Touch You But Him.' Ian Squeezed My Hand And Leaned In To Whisper Through All The Hair. His Voice Was So Low That I Was The Only One Who Could Hear. 'i Held You In My Hand, Wanderer. And You Were So Beautiful.

Hope Your New Boots Are Fast Bella. One Little Jar Isn't Going To Keep A Hungry Bear Occupied For Long." "i Only Have To Be Faster Than You.

Sell Stupid Somewhere Else--there's Nothing Better Than That Face!

Bella: "should I Be Afraid?" Edward: "terrified."

Do I Dazzle You? - Edward Frequently - Bella

"and You're Worried, Not Because You're Headed To Meet A Houseful Of Vampires, But Because You Think Those Vampires Won't Approve Of You, Correct?” “that's Right,” I Answered Immediately, Hiding My Surprise At His Casual Use Of The Word. He Shook His Head. “you're Incredible."

The Best Part Is Coming." "what's The Best Part? You Swallowing An Entire Cow Whole?" "no. That's The Finale.

Why Am I Covered In Feathers

I Had Never Given Much Thought To How I Would Die, But Dying In The Place Of Someone I Love Doesn't Seem Like Such A Bad Way To Go.

Your Hold On Me Is Permanent And Unbreakable. Never Doubt That

You Want Me To Be All Doom And Gloom, Or Just Shut Up?

Sometimes Ideas Feel Like They Were Already There, And That You're Just Discovering Them.

"you’re Exactly Like Charlie." She'd Sighed, Resigned. "once You Make Up Your Mind, There Is No Reasoning With You. Of Course, Exactly Like Charlie, You Stick By Your Decisions, Too."

My Money's On The Big Indian,' Someone Was Saying. I Peeked Up To See That Tyler, Mike, Austin And Ben Had There Heads Bent Together, Deep In Conversation. 'yeah,' Mike Whispered. 'did You See The Size Of That Jacob Kid? I Think He Could Take Cullen Down.' Mike Seemed Pleased By The Idea.

Speaking Of Which, Would You Like To Explain To Me How You’re Alive

Time Passes. Even When It Seems Impossible. Even When Each Tick Of The Second Hand Aches Like The Pulse Of Blood Behind A Bruise. It Passes Unevenly, In Strange Lurches And Dragging Lulls, But Pass It Does. Even For Me.

Life And Love Would Go On. Even Though It Would Happen Without Me, The Idea Brought Me Joy.

In So Many Millennia, The Humans Never Did Figurs Love Out. How Much Is Physical, How Much In The Mind? How Much Accident And How Much Fate? Why Did Perfect Matches Crumble And Impossible Couples Thrive? I Dont Know The Answer Better Than They Did. Love Simply Is Where It Is.

In Summary, She Did Jump Off A Cliff, But She Wasn't Trying To Kill Herself. Bella's All About The Extreme Sports These Days." I Flushed And Turned My Eyes Straight Ahead, Looking After The Dark Shadow That I Could No Longer See. I Could Imagine What He Was Hearing In Alice's Thoughts Now. Near-drowings, Stalking Vampires, Werewolf Friends . . . "hm," Edward Said Curtly, And The Casual Tone Of His Voice Was Gone.

I Want You, And I Want You Forever. One Lifetime Is Simply Not Enough For Me.

Stop Being So… Optimistic. It’s Getting On My Nerves.

But Never In The Four Hundred Years Now Since I Was Born, Have I Ever Seen Anything To Make Me Doubt Whether God Exists In Some Form Or The Other. Not Even The Reflection In The Mirror.

Thank You, Wanda. My Sister. I Will Never Forget You. Be Happy, Mel. Enjoy It All. Appreciate It For Me.

Whatever End Found Us, It Would Not Find Us Separated. -- Bella Cullen

Forever," He Vowed, Still A Little Staggered. "that's All I'm Asking For," I Said.

I Wondered To Myself Why No One Else Had Seen Him Standing So Far Away, Before He Was Suddenly, Impossibly Saving My Life. With Chagrin, I Realized The Probable Cause - No One Else Was As Aware Of Edward As I Always Was. No One Else Watched Him The Way I Did. How Pitiful.

I Was Just Thinking – Today Is The First And Last Day Of Forever. It’s Kind Of Hard To Wrap My Head Around It. Even With All This Extra Room For Wrapping.

Silently, I Lifted My Doggy Bowl Off The Floor. Then, With A Quick, Powerful Flip Of My Wrist, I Threw It Into The Back Of Blondie’s Head So Hard That – With An Earsplitting Bang – It Smashed Flat Before It Ricocheted Across The Room And Snapped The Round Top Piece Off The Thick Newel Post At The Foot Of The Stairs.

You're Awfully Small To Be So Hugely Irritating.

Good Or Bad? Good. That's What I Thought

I Know - I'll Play You For It," Alice Suggested. "rock, Paper, Scissors." Jasper Chuckled And Edward Sighed. "why Don't You Just Tell Me Who Wins?" Edward Said Wryly. Alice Beamed. "i Do. Excellent.

He Was Trying To Be Everywhere At Once," The Redhead Told The Human. "trying To Make Sure Alice Had Nothing To Do, Actually." He Shook His Head As He Looked At The Tiny Blackhaired Girl. "alice Doesn‘t Need Anyone‘s Help." The Vampire Named Alice Shot A Glare At Jasper. "overprotective Fool," She Said In Her Clear Soprano Voice. Jasper Met Her Stare With A Half Smile, Seeming To Forget For A Second That I Existed.

Tonight The Sky Was Utterly Black. Perhaps There Was No Moon Tonight—a Lunar Eclipse, A New Moon. A New Moon. I Shivered, Though I Wasn't Cold.

I Made A Concerned Effort To Focus. There Was Something I Needed To Say. The Most Important Thing. I Love You," I Said, But It Sounded Like Singing. My Voice Rang And Shimmered Like A Bell. As I Love You,"he Told Me.

It Makes Me . . . Anxious . . . To Be Away From You.

Twilight Edward

The Laughter In His Deep-set Black Eyes, The Feverish Heat Of His Big Hand Around Mine, The Flash Of His White Teeth Against His Dark Skin, His Face Stretching Into The Wide Smile That Had Always Been Like A Key To A Secret Door Where Only Kindred Spirits Could Enter.

In My Dream It Was Very Dark, And What Dim Light There Was Seemed To Be Radiating From Edward's Skin. I Couldn't See His Face, Just His Back As He Walked Away From Me, Leaving Me In The Blackness. No Matter How Fast I Ran, I Couldn't Catch Up To Him; No Matter How Loud I Called, He Never Turned. Troubled, I Woke In The Middle Of The Night And Couldn't Sleep Again For What Seemed Like A Very Long Time. After That, He Was In My Dreams Nearly Every Night, But Always On The Periphery, Never Within Reach.

It's Always Better To Be Kind. I'm Glad I Know Why." -wanda

I Can’t Be Sure, Of Course, But I’d Compare It To Living On Tofu And Soy Milk; We Call Ourselves Vegetarians, Our Little Inside Joke. - Edward Cullen

I Had The Feeling Edward Wasn't The Kind Of Person Anyone Got Used To.

I Don't Want To Be A Vampire. A Lot Of Other People Do And I Think It's That Dual Nature - We Have, You Know, Terrifying/intriguing.

How Did Anyone Survive This World, With These Bodies Whose Memories Wouldn't Stay In The Past Where They Should? With The Emotions That Were So Strond I Couldn't Tell What I Felt Anymore?

That Actually Is One Of My Huge Challenges Right Now Because I Write Best At Night, No Question. I Can Focus. You Know You're Not Getting Any Phone Calls, I Can Shut Everything Down, And I'm Just More Creative At Night.

After All The Thousand Times I’ve Told You I Love You, How Could You Let One Word Break Your Faith In Me?...i Could See It In Your Eyes, That You Honestly Believed That I Didn’t Want You Anymore. The Most Absurd, Ridiculous Concept—as If There Were Any Way That I Could Exist Without Needing You!

I Wanted The Monster Back And That Was Plainly Wrong.

If We Could Bottle Your Luck, We'd Have A Weapon Of Mass Destruction On Our Hands.

Mass Destruction

Bella, Would You Please Stop Trying To Take Your Clothes Off?

I Wondered – Would A Bullet Through My Temple Actually Kill Me Or Just Leave A Really Big Mess For Me To Clean Up?

Laughter Was Like A Fresh Breeze - It Cleaned Its Way Through The Body Making Everything Feel Good. Did Other Species Have Such A Simple Healer?

It Was All Very Childish. Why On Earth Should Edward Have To Leave For Jacob To Come Over? Weren't We Past This Immaturity?

Edward Thought He Was Going To Ruin Bella's Life And He Made Her Happy. And That Really Was Everything For Him.

Like A Stalker. An Obsessed Stalker. An Obsessed, Vampire Stalker

That's The Funny Thing About Knowing You Can't Have Something. It Makes You Desperate.

You're Not Like Anyone I've Ever Known. You Fascinate Me.

Twilight Edward

Speak Of The Devil, And The Devil Shall Appear.

What If I'm Not A Superhero. What If I'm The Bad Guy?

She Is Mine.' Edward’s Low Voice Was Suddenly Dark, Not As Composed As Before. 'i Didn’t Say I Would Fight Fair.

Nice Girl Who Knew Cars. Wow. I Stared At Her Face Harder, Wishing I Knew How To Make It Work. C’mon, Jake – Imprint Already.

How Easy It Must Be When You Had No Secrets From The Person You Lived With." - Eclipse, Page 208

Are You Referring To The Fact That You Can't Walk Across A Flat, Stable Surface Without Finding Something To Trip Over?

I Didn't Relate Well To People My Age. Maybe The Truth Was That I Didn't Relate Well To People, Period. Even My Mother, Who I Was Closer To Than Anyone Else On The Planet, Was Never In Harmony With Me, Never On Exactly The Same Page. Sometimes I Wondered If I Was Seeing The Same Things Through My Eyes That The Rest Of The World Was Seeing Through Theirs. Maybe There Was A Glitch In My Brain.

I Love You More Than Anything In The World Combined.

Happy Mothers Day

I Love You More

Just Like A Kitten That Thinks Its A Tiger.

So Eager For Eternal Damnation.

It's Sad When You Can't Make Everyone Happy, Though. It's Impossible But, At The Same Time, You Still Hope. You Think, 'maybe I Can Do It,' But You Know You Can't. But Gosh, If I Had To Rely On Giving People What They Wanted, I Would Have Had To Write 40 Billion Different Books And Even Then, I Wouldn't Get It Right.

Without The Existence Of The Opposite, The Concept Has No Meaning.

His Gift Is Slower Than Jane's. It Creeps. It Will Touch Us In A Few Seconds.

Sometimes I Wondered If I Was Seeing The Same Things Through My Eyes That The Rest Of The World Was Seeing Through Theirs. Maybe There Was A Glitch In My Brain.

Don't Be Afraid," I Murmured. "we Belong Together.

I’d Noticed That His Eyes Were Black – Coal Black.

My First Feeling Was That There Was No Way To Continue. Writing Isn't Like Math;in Math, Two Plus Two Always Equals Four No Matter What Your Mood Is Like. With Writing, The Way You Feel Changes Everything.

Here's To Responsibility," He Toasted. "twice A Week." "and Recklessness Every Day In Between," I Emphasized. He Grinned And Touched His Can To Mine.

I Know Love And Lust Don't Always Keep The Same Company.

You're Really Not That Good A Mechanic, Edward. Maybe You Should Have Rosalie Take A Look At It Tonight, Just So You Look Good If Mike Decides To Let You Help, You Know. Not That It Wouldn't Be Fun To Watch His Face If Rosalie Showed Up To Help. But Since Rosalie Is Supposed To Be Across The Country Attending College, I Guess That's Not The Best Idea. Too Bad.

This Isn't About Them, He Snarled At Me. This Is About Bella. She Has Never Been The One For You, She Had Never Chosen You, But You Continue To Destroy Your Life For Her!

Hasn’t Anyone Ever Told You? Life Isn’t Fair.

I Always Say Too Much When I'm Talking To You--- That's One Of The Problems.... Edward Cullen Twilight, Chapter 5

You Could Run From Someone You Feared, You Could Try To Fight Someone You Hated. All My Reactions Were Geared Toward Those Kinds Of Killers – The Monsters, The Enemies. When You Loved The One Who Was Killing You, It Left You No Options. How Could You Run, How Could You Fight, When Doing So Would Hurt That Beloved One? If Your Life Was All You Had To Give Your Beloved, How Could You Not Give It? If It Was Someone You Truly Loved?

Forever," Edward Echoed In My Ear. I Couldn't Speak Anymore. I Lifted My Head And Kissed Him With A Passion That Might Possibly Set The Forest On Fire. I Wouldn't Have Noticed.

Though There Was No Sound, There Was A Change. The Atmosphere, Which Had Gone Tense At My Accusation, Relaxed. I Wondered How I Knew This. I Had A Strange Sensation That I Was Somehow Receiving More Than My Five Senses Were Giving Me - Almost A Feeling That There Was Another Sense, On The Fringes, Not Quite Harnessed. Intuition? That Was Almost The Right Word. As If Any Creature Needed More Than Five Senses.

I Stared Into Jared's Eyes, And The Strangest Thing Happened. All The Melting And Melding I Had Just Been Through Was Shoved Aside, Into The Smallest Part Of My Body, The Little Corner That I Took Up Physically. The Rest Of Me Yearned Toward Jared With The Same Desperate, Half-crazed Hunger I'd Felt Since The First Time I'd Seen Him Here. This Body Barely Belonged To Me Or To Melanie-it Belonged To Him.

There Was A Different Ending To New Moon Originally. It Was A Much Quieter Book. It Was Very Much All In Bellas Head.

We Did Not Hope For The Same Things, But We All Hoped.

I’m Glad I Came. I Didn’t Think I Would Be. But It’s Good To See You… One More Time. Not As Sad As I’d Thought It Would Be.

If You Don’t Send Edward Out, We’re Coming In After Him! (emmett)

About Three Things I Was Absolutely Positive. First, Edward Was A Vampire. Second, There Was A Part Of Him - And I Didn’t Know How Potent That Part Might Be - That Thirsted For My Blood. And Third, I Was Unconditionally And Irrevocably In Love With Him.

You Look Tired." "yeah," I Agreed, And Shrugged. "near-death Experiences Do That To Me . . .

That’s Why It Was So Impossible To Tell Him Goodbye — Because I Was In Love With Him. Too. I Loved Him, Much More Than I Should, And Yet, Still Nowhere Near Enough. I Was In Love With Him, But It Was Not Enough To Change Anything; It Was Only Enough To Hurt Us Both More. To Hurt Him Worse Than I Ever Had.

I Believe That. But I Want You To Know Something — When It Comes To All This Enemies Nonsense, I’m Out. I Am A Neutral Country. I Am Switzerland. I Refuse To Be Affected By Territorial Disputes Between Mythical Creatures. Jacob Is Family. You Are . . . Well, Not Exactly The Love Of My Life, Because I Expect To Love You For Much Longer Than That. The Love Of My Existence. I Don’t Care Who’s A Werewolf And Who’s A Vampire. If Angela Turns Out To Be A Witch, She Can Join The Party, Too.

Repeat One Word Of What I Just Said And I'll Cheerfully Beat You To Death, Mike.

My Old Mind Hadn’t Been Capable Of Holding This Much Love. My Old Heart Had Not Been Strong Enough To Bear It. Maybe This Was The Part Of Me That I’d Brought Forward To Be Intensified In My New Life. Like Carlisle’s Compassion And Esme’s Devotion. I Would Probably Never Be Able To Do Anything Interesting Or Special Like Edward, Alice, And Jasper Could Do. Maybe I Would Just Love Edward More Than Anyone In The History Of The World Had Ever Loved Anyone Else. I Could Live With That.

Perhaps There Could Be No Joy On This Planet Without An Equal Weight Of Pain To Balance It Out On Some Unknown Scale.

It's Real Interesting To Have A Soul As A Friend, And It Makes Me Feel Super Special That I've Managed It.

It Will Be As If I Never Existed

I Would Always Love This Fragile Human Girl, For The Rest Of My Limitless Existence.

Love Is Irrational, I Reminded Myself. The More You Loved Someone, The Less Sense Anything Made.

Because There Was Nothing More Terrifying To Me, More Excruciating, Than The Thought Of Turning Away From Him. It Was An Impossibility.

You Still Owe Me A Yellow Porsche.

You Live A Thousand Lives When You Read A Thousand Books.

Of Course, Then You Nearly Crushed To Death In Front Of My Eyes. Later I Thought Of A Perfectly Good Excuse For Why I Acted At That Moment - Because If I Hadn't Saved You, If Your Blood Had Been Spilled There In Front Of Me, I Don't Think I Could Have Stopped Myself From Exposing Us For What We Are. But I Only Thought Of That Excuse Later. At The Time, All I Could Think Was, 'not Her.

Jasper Chuckled, Shaking His Head. " You Truly Are One Frightening Little Monster.

I Feel Like Reading Really Defined Me As A Writer Because I Lived My Life Outside Of My Own Body For So Much Of My Life And I Loved It. I've Always Been A Reader. I Think Living All Those Stories Served Me To Naturally Take That Next Step To Creating.

He's Like A Drug For You, Bella. I See That You Can't Live Without Him Now. It's Too Late. But I Would Have Been Healthier For You. Not A Drug; I Would Have Been The Air, The Sun.

Eclipse Of The Sun

You're Intoxicated By My Very Presence.

No Mistakes, I'd Promised Myself That I Would Make No Mistakes, No Matter How Minimal They Seemed. If I Held Her Hand, I Would Only Want More - Another Insignificant Touch, Another Move Closer To Her. I Could Feel That. A New Kind Of Desire Was Growing In Me, Working To Override My Self-control. No Mistakes.

I Want To Be A Monster Too

Just Snow And Sapphire And Ink.

And I Started To Cry Again, Realizing That It Must Be Changing Him, Too, This Man Who Was Kind Enough To Be A Soul But Strong As Only A Human Could Be.

Stop It, Mom, You're Making Me Blush.

Ian Squeezed My Hand And Leaned In To Whisper Through All The Hair. His Voice Was So Low That I Was The Only One Who Could Hear. 'i Held You In My Hand, Wanderer. And You Were So Beautiful.

He Didn't Ask What I Was Thinking, Which Was Out Of Character For Him. I Guessed That Meant That He Was Just As Nervous As I Suddenly Was.

This Place Was Truly The Highest And The Lowest Of All Worlds - The Most Beautiful Senses, The Most Exquisite Emotions.. The Most Malevolent Desires, The Darkest Deeds. Perhaps It Was Meant To Be So. Perhaps Without The Lows, The Highs Could Not Be Reached.

The Right Thing Isn't Always Real Obvious. Sometimes The Right Thing For One Person Is The Wrong Thing For Someone Else. So...good Luck Figuring That Out.

Of Course, You’d Warm Up Faster If You Took Your Clothes Off.

I Will Always Tell You The Truth.

Would You Please Tell Me What You Are Thinking? Before I Go Mad?

That Was The First Night I Dreamed Of Eward Cullen.

And The Smile I'd Been Waiting For Stretched Across His Face Like The Sun Breaking Free Of The Clouds.

And Then... As You Were Sleeping, You Said My Name. You Spoke So Clearly, At First I Thought You'd Woken. But You Rolled Over Restlessly And Mumbled My Name Once More, And Sighed. The Feeling That Coursed Through Me Then Was Unnerving, Staggering. And I Knew I Couldn't Ignore You Any Longer.

Bella, Can You Drop The Rock, Please? Carefully. Don’t Hurt Yourself.

I Didn't Want The Life That Made Sense. Not If The Chaos Meant I Could Have Bella.

Odd As This Might Sound, I Suppose I’m Glad You’re Here, Jacob. [edward Cullen]

But It's Possible To Love More Than One Person At A Time, Bella. I've Seen It In Action.

Fall Down Again, Bella?' No, Emmett, I Punched A Werewolf In The Face.

I Was Stronger Than Edward. I'd Made Him Say Ow.

“bella, I've Already Expended A Great Deal Of Personal Effort At This Point To Keep You Alive. I'm Not About To Let You Behind The Wheel Of A Vehicle When You Can't Even Walk Straight. Besides, Friends Don't Let Friends Drive Drunk,” He Quoted With A Chuckle. I Could Smell The Unbearably Sweet Fragrance Coming Off His Chest. “drunk?” I Objected. “you're Intoxicated By My Very Presence.” He Was Grinning That Playful Smirk Again.

I Walked Towards My Fate With My Destiny Standing Solidly By My Side

By The Way, I Love You.” “that’s Why We're Here.

Real. Does That Make Me Imaginary?

It Felt Almost Rude To Ignore Toe Pretty White Bed, But We Just Weren’t Going To Make It That Far.

The Boy In The Pearl Gray Suit Could Have Been Jane's Twin. His Hair Was Darker, And His Lips Were Not As Full, But He Was Just As Lovely.

It Was Very Strange, For I Knew We Were Both In Mortal Danger. Still, In That Instant, I Felt Well. Whole. I Could Feel My Heart Racing In My Chest, The Blood Pulsing Hot And Fast Through My Veins Again. My Lungs Filled Deep With The Sweet Scent That Came Off His Skin. It Was Like There Had Never Been Any Hole In My Chest. I Was Perfect - Not Healed, But As If There Had Been No Wound In The First Place.

I Don’t Care About Anything But Keeping Her Alive. If It’s A Child She Wants, She Can Have It. She Can Have Half A Dozen Babies. Anything She Wants. She Can Have Puppies, If That’s What It Takes.

Look, Just Stop Trying To Annihilate Yourself, Okay? Because If I Think You Can Do It, I'll Make Doc Pull Me Out Today. Or I'll Tell Jared. Just Imagine What He Would Do. I Imagined It For Her, Smiling A Little Through My Tears. Remeber? He Said No Guarantees About What He Would Or Wouldn't Do To Keep You Here. I Though Of Those Buring Kisses In The Hall...thought Of Other Kisses And Other Nights In Her Memory. My Face Warmed As I Blushed. You Fight Dirty. You Bet I Do.

I Wanted Him Like I Wanted Air To Breathe. Not A Choice- A Necessity.

I Coveted You. I Had No Right To Want You--but I Reached Out And Took You Anyway. And Now Look What's Become Of You! Trying To Seduce A Vampire.

Try Not To Trip," She Added. "we Don't Have Time For A Concussion Today." I Groaned. That Would Be Just Like Me - Ruin Everything, Destroy The World, In A Moment Of Klutziness.

It's Important For Me To Be Free And Know I'm Acting For Myself. I Do Things Because I Want To, And That's Important. You Want To Be Your Own Person.

You’re Not Asleep, And You’re Not Dead. I’m Here, And I Love You. I Have Always Loved You, And I Will Always Love You. I Was Thinking Of You, Seeing Your Face In My Mind, Every Second That I Was Away. When I Told You That I Didn’t Want You, It Was The Very Blackest Kind Of Blasphemy.

Thinking Of You

Body Armor. Four Thousand Pounds Of Body Armor. And Missile-proof Glass? Nice. What Had Happened To Good Old-fashioned Bulletproof?

The Way Everyone Looked At Me Made Me Uncomfortable. Even Edward. It Was Like I Had Grown A Hundred Feet During The Course Of The Morning. I Tried To Ignore The Impressed Looks, Mostly Keeping My Eyes On Nessie’s Sleeping Face And Jacob’s Unchanged Expression. I Would Always Be Just Bella To Him, And That Was A Relief. Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, P.747

Because When I Thought Of Him, Of His Voice, His Hypnotic Eyes, The Magnetic Force Of His Personality, I Wanted Nothing More Than To Be With Him Right Now.

Billy Wanted Me To Stay A Safe Distance From The Most Important Person In My Life. It Turned Out That His Concern Was, In The End, Unnecessary. I Was All Too Safe Now.

Amazing," Edward Muttered. "how Can Someone So Tiny Be So Annoying?" Alice Laughed. "it's A Talent.

Who Are You And What Have You Done With My Brother?

My Mom Is Part Albino.

Your Scent Is Like A Drug To Me Like My Own Personal Brand Of Heroin.

I'm Trying To Keep"― He Huffed, Shifting His Weight As The Treetop Bounced Him―"my Promise!" I Blinked My Wet Blurry Eyes, Suddenly Sure That I Was Dreaming. "when Did You Ever Promise To Kill Yourself Falling Out Of Charlie's Tree?

"happy Birthday," He Sighed, And Leaned Down To Touch His Lips To Mine. I Reached Up On My Toes To Make The Kiss Last Longer When He Pulled Away. He Smiled My Favorite Crooked Smile, And Then He Disappeared Into The Darkness.

I Said It Would Be Better If We Weren’t Friends, Not That I Didn’t Want To Be.

How Was I Ever Going To Fight The Blurring Lines In Our Relationship When I Enjoyed Being With Him So Much?

Our Relationship

Being Mormon Is A Big Part Of Who I Am, And I Try Very Hard To Live The Right Way, But I Don't Know That I'm An Example. I Hate To Say, 'yes, Look At Me. I'm A Good Example Of Being Mormon.' I Want To Be The Best Person I Can Be, So In That Aspect, Maybe I'm A Good Example.

Don't Worry?! You Sliced Your Hand Open!

But I’ll Never See Anyone Else, Bella. I Only See You. Even When I Close My Eyes And Try To See Something Else. Ask Quil Or Embry. It Drives Them All Crazy

What Happens When You Lose Your Heart's Desire?

You Nickednamed My Daughter After The Loch Ness Monster?

No, Actually 'the Host' Was Totally A Palate-cleanser For Me. I Wanted To Do Something A Little Bit Different Than Romantic Love. Romantic Love Is In There, Obviously, Because I Enjoy Writing About That And Living It A Lot.

How Dare You Imprint On My Baby? Have You Lost You Mind?

Would You Like To Hear My Story, Bella? It Doesn't Have A Happy Ending - But Which Of Ours Does? If We Had Happy Endings, We'd All Be Under Gravestones Now.

I Can Do This, I Lied To Myself Feebly. No One Was Going To Bite Me.

Fine,' Jared Snapped. 'but If You Try Cuddling Up To Me Tonight... So Help Me, O'shea." Ian Chuckled. ' Not To Sound Overly Arrogant, But To Be Perfectly Honest, Jared, Were I So Inclined, I Think I Could Do Better.

Well… Don’t Be Offended, But You Smell Like A Dog.

When I Write A Story, It's Not Like I'm Thinking About What I'm Doing

Sometimes I’m Afraid That I’m Losing Myself.

Bella, There's A Part Of You That Loves Me.

I Was Consumed By The Mystery Edward Presented. And More Than A Little Obsessed By Edward Himself. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid. I Wasn't As Eager To Escape Forks As I Should Be, As Any Normal, Sane Person Would Be.

I Shuddered At The Image In My Head, At The Word Feed. But Jasper Wasn’t Worried About Frightening Me, Not Overprotective Like Edward Always Was.

I Am Switzerland. I Refuse To Be Affected By Territorial Disputes Between Mythical Creatures.

Mythical Creatures

Hard To Feel Confident When You’re Surrounded By Horse-sized Wolves. Emmett Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 39, P.745

I Glared At Him. "i May Not Die Now... But I'm Going To Die Sometime. Every Minute Of The Day, I Get Closer. And I'm Going To Get Old.

Charlie Took My Hand And, In A Symbol As Old As The World, Placed It In Edward’s. I Touched The Cool Miracle Of His Skin, And I Was Home.

It Will Be As If I'd Never Existed. The Words Ran Through My Head, Lacking The Perfect Clarity Of My Hallucination Last Night. They Were Just Words, Soundless, Like Print On A Page. Just Words, But They Ripped The Hole Wide Open, And I Stomped On The Brake, Knowing I Should Not Drive While This Incapacitated. I Curled Over, Pressing My Face Against The Steering Wheel And Trying To Breathe Without Lungs.

Que Quowle" -stay With Me Forever-

How Could You Fall In Love With A Three Inch Worm?

Falling In Love

I Felt Like - Like I Don't Know What. Like This Wasn't Real. Like I Was In Some Goth Version Of A Bad Sitcom. Instead Of Being The A/v Dweeb About To Ask The Head Cheerleader To The Prom, I Was The Finished-second-place Werewolf About To Ask The Vampire's Wife To Shack Up And Procreate. Nice. - Jacob

There Are No Rules That Can Bind You When You Find Your Other Half.

You Know I Love You Right?” “i Know,” He Breathed, His Arm Tightening Automatically Around My Waist. “you Know How Much I Wish It Was Enough.

If You Don’t Send Edward Out,” Emmett—still Invisible In The Night—hissed Menacingly, “we’re Coming In After Him!” “go,” I Laughed. “before They Break My House.

Sometimes, There Isn't Any Way To Compromise." - Eclipse, Page 607

The Absence Of Him Is Everywhere I Look.

The Rains Would End, And When They Did, Ian And I Would Be Together, Partners In The Truest Sense. This Was A Promise And An Obligation I Had Never Had In All My Lives. Thinking Of It Made Me Feel Joyful And Anxious And Shy And Desperately Impatient All At The Same Time—made Me Feel Human.

I'd Rather Know What You're Thinking - Even If What You're Thinking Is Insane.

If You Turned The Fabric Of Our Lives Over, I Imagined The Design On The Backside Would Be Woven In The Bleak Grays Of Doubt And Fear.

The Wasting Of Finite Resources Is Everyones Business

And, By The Way, I Adore You.... In Frightening, Dangerous Ways.

Some Of The Memories Were Not Clear - -dim Human Memories, Seen Through Weak Eyes And Heard Through Weak Ears: The First Time I'd Seen His Face... The Way It Felt When He'd Held Me In The Meadow... The Sound Of His Voice Through The Darkness Of My Faltering Consciousness When He'd Save Me From James... His Face As He Waited Under A Canopy Of Flowers To Marry Me... Every Precious Moment On The Island... His Cold Hands Touching Our Baby Through My Skin.

Is The Fire Gone?" "yes," I Sighed. "thank You, Edward." "i Love You," He Answered. "i Know," I Breathed, So Tired. I Heard My Favorite Sound In The World: Edward's Quiet Laugh, Weak With Relief.

So… Um… What’s The, Er, Date? You Know, The Due Date For The Little Monster.

Sometimes You Have To Learn To Love What's Good For You.
