In another house, the fact that someone besides myself was cooking might not be a cause for panicking.
how did her dad survive before her
“What did I do wrong?” Charlie demanded. “You’re supposed to take the lid off first, Dad. Metal’s bad for microwaves.”
YOU ARE A GROWN MAN.
He opened his arms for me and I sat on his lap, nestling into his cool stone embrace. I looked at his hands while I spoke.
this gotta be freezing
Sure, I was free to go to anywhere I wanted—except La Push; free to do anything I wanted—except see Jacob.
well who did this
Someone thoughtful and cautious. The responsible one, the grownup. That’s how I saw myself. That was the person I knew.
thoughtful but selfish yes
I needed therapy.
truer words have never been said
Edward’s shielding arms had become restraints.

Emmett had said, “I’m really glad Edward didn’t kill you. Everything’s so much more fun with you around.” Rosalie had glared at him.
“Welcome back, Bella,” he said, grinning. And the way he said the words made it sound like welcome home.
I wondered if it was so that he could hide his face more easily. He kept my hand.
Jacob settled closer to me, so that he was leaning against my arm. He was so warm. After a minute of this, I shrugged out of my rain jacket. He made a little sound of contentment in the back of his throat, and rested his cheek on the top of my head. I
SHE IS SICK IN THE HEAD.
“Alice, don’t you think this is just a little bit controlling? Just a tiny bit psychotic, maybe?”
“Not that you aren’t pretty, Bella,” she said, misreading my expression. “But it just meant that he found you more attractive than me. I’m vain enough that I minded.”
You’re too young to know what you’ll want in ten years, fifteen years—and too young to give it all up without thinking it through. You don’t want to be rash about permanent things, Bella.”
Alice frowned. “He’s going to take the Porsche back. I’m not doing a very good job. You’re supposed to be having fun.”
the way she only gaf about the porsche like she can’t buy one for herself
Jacob started walking again. Without seeming to think about it, he reached out and took my hand. We paced silently across the rocks. I thought of how we must look walking hand and hand down the beach—like a couple, certainly—and wondered if I should object.
YOU GUYS NEED TO STOP. LIKE???
“Claire is two,”
LMFAOOOOOO STEPHANIE IS CRAZYYYY
“Quil… imprinted… with a two-year-old?”
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
“I’m in love with you, Bella,” Jacob said in a strong, sure voice. “Bella, I love you. And I want you to pick me instead of him. I know you don’t feel that way, but I need the truth out there so that you know your options. I wouldn’t want a miscommunication to stand in our way.”
PICK ME. CHOOSE ME. LOVE ME.
“I hate you, Jacob Black.” “That’s good. Hate is a passionate emotion.”
“I’ll give you passionate,” I muttered under my breath. “Murder, the ultimate crime of passion.”
“You’ve never tried,” he disagreed. “When he left, you spent all your energy holding on to him. You could be happy if you let go. You could be happy with me.” “I don’t want to be happy with anyone but him,” I insisted.
clock it
“Next time you want to hit me, use a baseball bat or a crowbar, okay?” “Don’t think I’ll forget that,” I muttered.
😭
“I’m not going to kill you now, because it would upset Bella.”
Edward turned slightly to throw me a quick smile. His face was still calm. “It would bother you in the morning,” he said, brushing his fingers across my cheek.
And a fresh wave of panic shattered my brief sense of confidence. They were still outnumbered. I was making that worse.
yes you’re a selfish dumbass
He’s so unselfish it makes me feel even worse. I wish he would have yelled at me or something. It’s not like I don’t deserve… well, much worse than getting yelled at. But he doesn’t care. He just wants me to be happy.”
mind edward is insane
“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.”
jacob IS the sun… and she said i want the moon which is crazy
“My age is not really that important. Edward, I’m ready. I’ve chosen my life—now I want to start living it.”
“Bella, I see what you’re doing. You’re trying to make everyone else happy. And I don’t care about anyone else’s feelings. I only need you to be happy.
