I Already Know How Strong You Are. You Didn't Have To Break The Furniture." —bella Swan

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.

How Can A Little Thing Be So Annoying?

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

Don't Be Self-conscious, If I Could Dream At All, It Would Be About You. And I'm Not Ashamed Of It.

When He Left, You Spent All Your Energy Holding On To Him. You Could Be Happy If You Let Go.

When I Told You I Didn't Want You It Was The Blackest Kind Of Blasphemy

Vampirism, For Me, Was A Way To Live In Fantasy And Have Superpowers, But Not Just In A Really Perfect, Happy, Everything Is Great Way. It's Superpowers With A Cost. It's Having To Be The Villain, And What Do You Do About That.

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.

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

With The Host, I Think The Actors Could Be Really Big Names. That Would Be Cool. Id Love To See Robert Redford Put On A Beard And Be Jeb; He Would Be Amazing... Matt Damon Has Some Very Jared-esque Qualities, And Then Casey Affleck As Ian And Ben Affleck As Kyle. Imagine The Interplay.

When Life Offers You A Dream So Far Beyond Any Of Your Expectations, It’s Not Reasonable To Grieve When It Comes To An End.

We Made It,' He Shouted. 'not Bad For A Prison Break, Eh?' 'good Thinking Jake.

You Scared Me For A Minute There. I Thought Newton Was Dragging Your Dead Body Off To Bury It In The Woods.

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

Dazed And Disoriented, I Looked Up From The Bright Red Blood Pulsing Out Of My Arm - Into The Fevered Eyes Of The Six Suddenly Ravenous Vampires.

I Couldn‘t Make Sense Of The Mess In My Head. Diego Was Dead, And That Was The Main Thing, The Devastating Thing. Other Than That, The Fight Was Over, My Coven Had Lost And My Enemies Had Won. But My Dead Coven Was Full Of People Who Would Have Loved To Watch Me Burn, And My Enemies Were Speaking To Me Kindly When They Had No Reason To.

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.

Carlisle Has A Theory...he Believes That We All Bring Something Of Our Strongest Human Traits With Us Into The Next Life, Where They Are Intensified - Like Our Minds, And Our Senses.

I Glanced, Wide Eyed, From Edward's Grimace To Jacob's Sneer.

Good Luck, Little Wanderer, Good Luck. How I Wish You Didn't Need It.

That Was The First Night I Dreamed Of Eward Cullen.

If I Were To Continue On With 'the Host,' Which Is A Possibility, There Are Characters And Stories That Could Continue... If I Went Ahead With That, It Would Be Two More... Next Would Be 'the Soul,' And Then 'the Seeker.

I Love You More Than Anything In The World Combined.

Happy Mothers Day

I Love You More

You’ve Never Been A Teenager, Sweetie. You Know What’s Best For You.

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

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

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.

Wanderer: You Don't Really Feel That Way About Me You Know. It's This Body... She's Pretty Isn't She? Ian: She Is. Melanie Is A Very Pretty Girl. Even Beautiful. But Pretty As She Is, She Is A Stranger To Me. She's Not The One I... Care About. Wanderer: It's This Body. Ian: That's Not True At All. It's Not The Face, But The Expressions On It. It's Not The Voice, But What They Say. It's Not How You Look Like In That Body, It's What You Do With It. You Are Beautiful.

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

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

After All I've Seen, If I Hadn't Learned Compassion, I Wouldn't Be Worth Much.

Once People Start Throwing Wet Stuff, I Go Inside.

Non-reality Was Black, And It Didn't Hurt So Much.

The Only Parents In The World Who Don’t Need Sleep, And Our Child Already Sleeps Through The Night. Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 22, P.429

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.

I Don’t Like To Lie – So There’d Better Be A Good Reason Why I’m Doing It.

Good Luck Tended To Avoid Me.

The Kiss Began Much The Same As Usual--edward Was As Careful As Ever, And My Heart Began To Overreact Like It Always Did. And Then Something Seemed To Change. Suddenly His Lips Became Much More Urgent, His Free Hand Twisted Into My Hair And Held My Face Securely To His. And Though I Was Clearly Beginning To Cross His Cautious Lines, For Once He Didn't Stop Me. His Body Was Cold Through The Thin Quilt, But I Crushed Myself Against Him Eagerly.

The Waves Of Pain That Had Only Lapped At Me Before Now Reared High Up And Washed Over My Head, Pulling Me Under. I Did Not Resurface.

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.

But What If It Were You? What If You Were Stuffed In A Human Body And Let Loose On This Planet Only To Find Yourself Lost Among Your Own Kind? What If You Were Such A Good Person That You Tried To Save The Life That You'd Taken That You Almost Died Trying To Get Her Back To Her Family? What If You Then Found Yourself Surrounded By Violent Aliens Who Hated You And Tried To Hurt You And Tried To Murder You Over And Over Again? What If You Just Kept Doing Whatever You Could To Save And Heal People Despite That? Wouldn't You Deserve A Life Too? Wouldn't You Have Earned That Much?

No One Had To Tell Me Anything. I Know What I Am

Listen Up, Wanda. I Know Exactly What You Don't Want To Be. But We're Human, And We're Selfish, And We Don't Always Do The Right Thing. We Aren't Going To Let You Go. Deal With It.

Jacob Was Simply A Perpetually Happy Person, And He Carried This Happiness With Him Like An Aura, Sharing It With Whoever Was Near Him. Lika An Earthbound Sun, Whenever Someone Was Within His Gravitational Pull, Jacob Warmed Them. It Was Natural, A Part Of Who He Was.

I Didn’t Want To Kill Girls… Even Vampire Girls. Though I Might Make An Exception For That Blonde.

Dear Jacob, I Win. Sincerely, Edward

I’m Afraid You’re Going To Have To Make A Choice.

Happy And Sad, Elated And Miserable, Secure And Afraid, Loved And Denied, Patient And Angry, Peaceful And Wild, Complete And Empty...all Of It. I Would Feel Everything. It Would All Be Mine.

Maybe You'll Get Lucky." I Said Bleakly, Lurching On My Feet. "maybe I'll Get Hit By A Truck On My Way Back.

Sometimes, Kismet Happens.

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

I Am Not Really Breaking Any Rules. Charlie Said I Could Never Take Another Step Through The Door Again... I Came In Through The Window... Still, The Intent Was Clear," Said Edward.

I Promise That This Will Be The Last Time You’ll See Me. I Won’t Come Back. I Won’t Put You Through Anything Like This Again. You Can Go On With Your Life Without Any More Interference From Me. It Will Be As If I’d Never Existed.

I Held You In My Hands, Wanderer, And You Were Beautiful.

Did You Know, You're Sort Of Beautiful?' 'you Hit Your Head Pretty Hard, Didn't You?

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.

Death Is Peaceful, Life Is Harder

I Kept Pushing Against The Black, Though, Almost A Reflex. I Wasn't Trying To Lift It. I Was Just Resisting. Not Allowing It To Crush Me Completely. I Wasn't Atlas, And The Black Felt As Heavy As A Planet; I Couldn't Shoulder It. All I Could Do Was Not Be Entirely Obliterated.

History Was Easy, But I Don't Know About The Calculus. It Seemed Like It Was Making Sense, So That Probably Means I Failed.

You Know When Things Are Bad When You Feel Guilty For Being Rude To Vampires. Jacob B. Ch.14

This Love Was Tricky...was It Simply Better Somehow? Because These Humans Could Hate With So Much Fury, Was The Other End Of The Spectrum That They Could Love With More Heart And Zeal And Fire?

You Think Of Me As A... Living Stone - Hard And Cold. That's True. We Are Set The Way We Are, And It Is Very Rare For Us To Experience A Real Change. When That Happens, As When Bella Entered My Life, It Is A Permanent Change. There's No Going Back.

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

I Tried To Be Diplomatic, But Mostly I Just Lied A Lot.

As Long As She Wants Me, I’m Here.

It Sounded Like You Were Having Bella For Lunch, And We Came To See If You Would Share.

Just Because You Want Something To Be True Doesn’t Make It That Way.” -the Host

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.

You're Intoxicated By My Very Presence.

My Name Is Jared Howe. I Haven't Spoken To Another Human Being In More Than Two Years, So I'm Sure I Must Seem...a Little Crazy To You.

I Was Just Wondering Why You Stabbed Him. Not That I Object.

Twilight Edward

I Do A Good Job Of Blocking Painful, Unnecessary Things From My Memory.

After All, How Many Ways Can One Heart Be Mangled And Still Be Expected To Keep Beating?

Be Honest, How Hideous Do I Look?" He Took Another Step Back And Pursed His Lips. "that Bad, Huh?" I Muttered. No, No Bella. Actually. . ." He Seemed To Be Struggling For The Right Word. "you Look. . .sexy." I Laughed Out Loud. "right." Very Sexy, Really.

He's Like A Drug For You, Bella." His Voice Was Still Gentle, Not At All Critical. "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." The Corner Of My Mouth Turned Up In A Wistful Half-smile. "i Used To Think Of You That Way, You Know. Like The Sun. My Personal Sun. You Balanced Out The Clouds Nicely For Me." He Sighed. "the Clouds I Can Handle. But I Can't Fight With An Eclipse.

So Eager For Eternal Damnation.

Those Who Lived In Peaceful Nations Had Looked The Other Way As Members Of Their Own Species Starved On Their Door Step.

Dad, I Wrote. I'm With Alice. Edward's In Trouble. You Can Ground Me When I Get Back. I Know It's A Bad Time. So Sorry. Love You So Much. Bella.

Edward,' She Mumbled Softly. She Was Dreaming Of Me. Could A Dead, Frozen Heart Beat Again? It Felt Like Mine Was About To. 'stay,' She Sighed. 'don't Go. Please... Don't Go

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

So, Did You Stab Edward Cullen With A Pencil Or What? I've Never Seen Him Act Like That.

You Can't Run With Vampires. 'cuz They're Fast." -bella "yea? Well, We're Faster.

But... When I Left You, Bella, I Left You Bleeding. Jacob Was The One To Stitch You Back Up Again. That Was Bound To Leave It's Mark - On Both Of You. I'm Not Sure Those Kinds Of Stitches Dissolve On Their Own. I Can't Blame Either Of You For Something I Made Necessary. I May Gain Forgiveness, But That Doesn't Let Me Escape The Consequences.

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

He’s Playing Every Bit As Hard As I Am, Only He Knows What He’s Doing And I Don’t. Don’t Blame Me Because He’s A Better Manipulator Than I Am — I Haven’t Been Around Long Enough To Learn All His Tricks.

It Was Very Relaxing To Be Away From Civilization, And This Bothered Me. I Should Not Have Found The Loneliness So Welcoming.

Do You Really Have Any Idea How Important You Are To Me? Any Concept At All Of How Much I Love You?" He Pulled Me Tighter Against His Hard Chest, Tucking My Head Under His Chin. I Pressed My Lips Against His Snow-cold Neck. "i Know How Much I Love You," I Answered. You Compare One Small Tree To The Entire Forest." I Rolled My Eyes, But He Couldn't See. "impossible.

It's A Little Dense, Don't You Think, To Antagonize The Strongest Vampire In The House?' Emmett Threw His Head Back And Snorted. 'please!' [...] I Took A Deep Breath. 'emmett, How Do You Feel About A Little Bet?' He Was On His Feet At Once. 'awesome. Bring It.

Eight Full Lives,” I Whispered Against His Jaw, My Voice Breaking. “eight Full Lives And I Never Found Anyone I Would Stay On A Planet For, Anyone I Would Follow When They Left. I Never Found A Partner. Why Now? Why You? You're Not Of My Species. How Can You Be My Partner?” “it's A Strange Universe,” He Murmured. “it's Not Fair,” I Complained, Echoing Sunny's Words. It Wasn't Fair. How Could I Find This, Find Love–now, In This Eleventh Hour–and Have To Leave It? Was It Fair That My Soul And Body Couldn't Reconcile? Was It Fair That I Had To Love Melanie, Too?

I’m A Little Worried About Edward… Can Vampires Go Into Shock? Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn, Chapter 7, P.129

I Was Thinking About How Disjointedly Time Seemed To Flow, Passing In A Blur At Times, With Single Images Standing Out More Clearly Than Others. And Then, At Other Times, Every Second Was Significant, Etched In My Mind.

Go Jump Off A Cliff, Leah.

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.

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.

Be Happy That After Living So Many Lives, I Finally Found Something To Die For

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

I, The Soul Named Wanderer, Love You, Human Ian And That Will Never Change No Matter What I Might Become. If I Were A Dolphin Or A Bear Or A Flower, It Wouldn't Matter. I Would Always Love You, Always Remember You. You Will Be My Only Partner." - Wanda, The Host

Over My Pile Of Ashes

Could A Dead, Frozen Heart Beat Again? It Felt Like Mine Was About To.

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

I Wanted The Monster Back And That Was Plainly Wrong.

If I Was Given The Choice Between Having The World Back And Having You, I Wouldn't Be Able To Give You Up. Not To Save Five Billion Lives.

Body And Soul. Two Different Things

No Measure Of Time With You Will Be Long Enough, But We'll Start With Forever.

Someone Has To Spread The Good News That We Survived.

Inspiration In Desperation.

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

The Only Reason I Left Was To Protect You.

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.

I Stared Into Her Eyes, Wide Under The Thick Fringe Of Lashes, And Yearned For Sleep. Not For Oblivion, As I Had Before, Not To Escape Boredom, But Because I Wanted To *dream*. Maybe, If I Could Be Unconscious, If I Could Dream, I Could Live For A Few Hours In A World Where She And I Could Be Together. She Dreamed Of Me. I Wanted To Dream Of Her.

But What If...what If You Sincerely Believed Something Was True, But You Were Dead Wrong? What If You Were So Stubbornly Sure That You Were Right, That You Wouldn’t Even Consider The Truth? Would The Truth Be Silenced, Or Would It Try To Break Through?

I Tensed, Waiting For The Fury - Both His And Mine - But It Was Only Quiet And Calm In The Darkness Of His Room. I Could Almost Taste The Sweetness Of Reunion In The Air, A Separate Fragrance From The Perfume Of His Breath; The Emptiness When We Were Apart Left Its Own Bitter Aftertaste, Something I Didn't Consciously Notice Until It Was Removed. There Was No Friction In The Space Between Us. The Stillness Was Peaceful - Not Like The Calm Before The Tempest, But Like A Clear Night Untouched By Even The Dream Of A Storm.

I'll Always Be Waiting In The Wings Bella

Don't Watch" The Redheaded Mind Reader Whispered. I Closed My Eyes.

Twilight, Again. Another Ending. No Matter How Perfect The Day Is, It Always Has To End.

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

Out Of All The Things About Me That Could Frighten You, You Worry About My Driving.

Twilight Edward

We're Lucky Esme Thought To Add An Extra Room. No One Was Planning For Ness-renesmee." I Frowned At Him, My Thoughts Channeled Down A Less Pleasant Path. "not You Too," I Complained. "sorry, Love. I Hear It In Their Thoughts All The Time, You Know. It's Rubbing Off On Me. I Sighed. My Baby, The Sea Serpent. Maybe There Was No Help For It. Well, I Wasn't Giving In.

He's Like A Drug For You, Bella.

You Nickednamed My Daughter After The Loch Ness Monster?

Storytelling Was The Most Honored Of All Talents, For It Benefited Everyone.

I Know You Think That I Have Some Kind Of Perfect, Unyielding Self-control, But That's Not Actually The Case. - Edward Cullen

I Hear Voices In My Mind And You're Worried That You're The Freak,” He Laughed.

Romeo Wouldn’t Change His Mind. That’s Why People Still Remembered His Name, Always Twined With Hers.

The Morning Brought With It, If Not A Brighter Outlook, At Least A Measure Of Control, Some Acceptance. Instinctively, I Knew That The New Tear In My Heart Would Always Ache. That Was Just Going To Be A Part Of Me Now.

You'd Think I Was Shoving Bamboo Splinters Under Your Nails. (alice From Twilight)

“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.

No Two Writers Go About Things In Exactly The Same Way (intro)

It’s Just Been My Experience That Some Kinds Of Working Relationships Are Better Motivated By Fear Than By Monetary Gain.

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

I May Not Be A Human, But I Am A Man.

You Aren't Exactly The Best Judge Of What Is Or Isn't Dangerous.

Love Is Simply Where It Is.

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.

Bella, It's Not My Fault If You Are Exceptionally Unobservant.

Twilight Edward

And So The Lion Fell In Love With The Lamb…" He Murmured. I Looked Away, Hiding My Eyes As I Thrilled To The Word. "what A Stupid Lamb," I Sighed. "what A Sick, Masochistic Lion.

His Skin Was A Pretty Colour, It Made Me Jealous. Jacob Noticed My Scrutiny. What?" He Asked, Suddenly Self-conscious. "nothing. I Just Hadn't Realised Before. Did You Know, You're Sort Of Beautiful?" Once The Words Slipped Out, I Worried That He Might Take My Implusive Observation The Wrong Way. But Jacob Rolled His Eyes. "you Hit Your Head Pretty Hard, Didn't You?" "i'm Serious." Well, Then, Thanks. Sort Of." I Grinned. "you're Sort Of Welcome.

Love, Life, Meaning...over.

Meaning Of Life

His Gold Eyes Grew Very Soft. “you Said You Loved Me.” “you Knew That Already,” I Reminded Him, Ducking My Head. “it Was Nice To Hear, Just The Same.” I Hid My Face Against His Shoulder. “i Love You,” I Whispered. “you Are My Life Now,” He Answered Simply. There Was Nothing More To Say For The Moment. He Rocked Us Back And Forth As The Room Grew Lighter.

The Worst Part Is That I Saw The Whole Thing -- Our Whole Life. And I Want It Bad, Jake, I Want It All. I Want To Stay Right Here And Never Move. I Want To Love You And Make You Happy. And I Can't, And It's Killing Me.

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

You Don't Get A Lot Of Suicidal Vampires.

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

Time Means Little; I Never Notice Its Passing.

I Was Not Allowed To Think Of Him. That Was Something I Tried To Be Very Strict About. Of Course I Slipped; I Was Only Human. But I Was Getting Better, And So The Pain Was Something I Could Avoid For Days At A Time Now. The Trade-off Was The Never-ending Numbness. Between Pain And Nothing, I'd Chosen Nothing.

It's Strong, Ian. The Way She Feels About You Is Something Else. She Loves This World, But So Much Of The Reason She Couldn't Leave Was Really You. She Thinks Of You As Her Anchor. You Gave Her A Reason To Finally Stay In One Place After A Lifetime Of Wandering.

Stop Being So...optimistic, Its Getting On My Nerves." "no Problem. Do You Want Me To Be All Gloom And Doom Or Just Shut Up?" "just Shut Up." "can Do." "really? Doesn't Seem Like It." -jacob And Seth

Bring On The Shackles - I'm Your Prisoner

Twilight Edward

My Mom Is Part Albino.

I Knew The Human Exaggeration For Sorrow-a Broken Heart.

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.

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

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

He's Got To Let Go Of You Sometime.

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

Super-secret Ninja Club Sounds Way Cooler Than The Whole Bff Thing.

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

Why Didn't I Just Walk Away? Oh Right, Because I'm A Idiot.

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

You're Not The Center Of The Universe, You Know.

Center Of The Universe

“don't Be Offended, But You Seem To Be One Of Those People Who Just Attract Accidents Like A Magnet. So... Try Not To Fall Into The Ocean Or Get Run Over Or Anything, All Right?” He Smiled Crookedly. The Helplessness Had Faded As He Spoke. I Glared At Him. “i'll See What I Can Do,” I Snapped As I Jumped Out Into The Rain. I Slammed The Door Behind Me With Excessive Force. He Was Still Smiling As He Drove Away.

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.

She Just Keeps Saying "he’s Gone.

Before You, Bella, My Life Was Like A Moonless Night. Very Dark, But There Were Stars, Points Of Light And Reason. ...and Then You Shot Across My Sky Like A Meteor. Suddenly Everything Was On Fire; There Was Brilliancy, There Was Beauty. When You Were Gone, When The Meteor Had Fallen Over The Horizon, Everything Went Black. Nothing Had Changed, But My Eyes Were Blinded By The Light. I Couldn’t See The Stars Anymore. And There Was No More Reason, For Anything.

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

Like Everything In Life, I Just Had To Decide What To Do With What I Was Given.

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 Promise To Love You Forever - Every Single Day Of Forever.

Thank You-for Her-for Everything." _edward Cullen

You Gonna Back Down So Easy, Little Sister?. Not Much Wild About You, Is There? I Bet That Cottage Doesn't Have A Scratch. Did Edward Tell You How Many Houses Rose And I Smashed?

No Point In Ignoring The Truth. Doesn't Make It Worse To Have It Said Out Loud.

I Always Needed That Extra Fantasy World. I Had To Have Another World I Could Be In At The Same Time.

However, I Can Read Hers- She'll Be Waiting To Ambush You In Class.

Is My Mom All Right?" "she's Perfectly Fine. Don't Worry, Bella, I Have No Quarrel With Her. Unless You Didn't Come Alone, Of Course." Light, Amused. "i'm Alone." I'd Never Been More Alone In My Entire Life.

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.

So, Bella, I Was Following Your Scent Through The Woods After I'd Left Your Room Where I Was Watching You Sleep...yes That Would Be Quite The Ice Breaker.

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

Life Sucks, And Then You Die.

My Skin Burns Where It Meets His. It Feels Better Than Good, But It Sets Off A Strange Aching In My Chest.

What Do I Look Like? The Wizard Of Oz? You Need A Brain? You Need A Heart? Go Ahead, Take Mine. Take Everything I Have.

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

Ew. Someone Put The Dog Out, "rosalie Murmured Wrinkling Her Nose. Have You Herd This One, Psycho? How Do A Blond's Brain Cells Die?" She Didn't Say Anything. Well?" I Asked."do You Know The Punch Line Or Not?" She Looked Pointedly At The Tv And Ignored Me. Has She Heard It?" I Asked Edward. No." He Answered. Awesome. So You'll Enjoy This, Bloodsucker--a Blond's Brain Cells Die Alone.

I'm Really Glad Edward Didn't Kill You. Everything's So Much More Fun With You Around." — Emmett Cullen

I'm Not Dangerous At All I Never Hurt Grandpa Or Sue Or Billy. I Love Humans. And Wolf-people Like My Jacob."renesmee Dropped Edward's Hand To Reach Back And Pat Jacob's Arm.

And Yet, I Found I Could Survive. I Was Alert, I Felt The Pain - The Aching Loss That Radiated Out From My Chest, Sending Wracking Waves Of Hurt Through My Limbs And Head - But It Was Manageable. I Could Live Through It. I Didn't Feel Like The Pain Had Weakened Over Time, Rather That I'd Grown Strong Enough To Bear It.

Does It Bother You, Me Being Half Naked All The Time?

Don't Take Too Long, Mrs. Cullen

After All The Planets And All The Hosts You've Left Behind, You've Finally Found The Place And The Body You'd Die For. I Think You've Found Your Home, Wanderer.

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

That Maybe You Should Make The Most Of What Time You Have? That You Shouldlive While You’re Alive?

Forever Is Only The Beginning

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

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

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.

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

He Raised His Hand, Hesitant, Conflict Raging In His Eyes, And Then Swiftly Brushed The Length Of My Cheekbone With His Fingertips. His Skin Was As Icy As Ever, But The Trail His Fingers Left On My Skin Was Alarmingly Warm - Like I'd Been Burned, But Didn't Feel The Pain Of It Yet.

So When He Touched Me, It Was Deeper And Slower Than The Wildfire, Like The Flow Of Molten Rock Far Beneath The Surface Of The Earth. Too Deep To Feel The Heat Of It, But It Moved Inexorably, Changing The Very Foundations Of The World With Its Advance.

Something I've Never Seen In All My Lives. I'm Staring At... Hope." - Wanda

Are You Still Faint From The Run? Or Was It My Kissing Expertise?
