Thank you to Christag Banners for my wonderful story banner! 

Cause: Edward gives Bella exactly what she wants for her birthday.

Effect: He must leave her behind for good.

Effect: Bella disappears.

How will Edward survive without her? What other effects will there be for Edward and the rest of the Cullens?

Beginning with New Moon and taking a drastically different direction, this story is Edward's side of my first published story Consequences.

Banner by the awesome Frozen Soldier!  She is amazing!

We had survived the Volturi and were finally able to enjoy life without fear...until new threats arose.  These were more sinister than any before...because the most terrifying one came from within me...

The lead figure took a few long steps toward us, and I felt Bella stiffen beside me and heard her gasp of pain.  Hands moved toward the cowl of the robe, pushing it backwards.  The moonlight made a valiant attempt to shine through the clouds highlighting him as the angel he’d always seemed.  Bright red eyes scanned the group as a sneer claimed his face, twisting it.  He looked toward the assassins beside him, after one last cold look toward us, he gave his order.   “Destroy them.”

The family tensed at the callousness in his voice.

“Edward…” Bella breathed out from beside me.  Pain laced through her voice.

The figure hesitated only slightly as the weak light framed his bronze hair and the scar along his cheek.  Then as he turned away, the robed figures dashed past him toward us.

 “Henry!” my family screamed around me as we braced for impact.   “Remember our training,” I shouted.  “And if possible bring Edward back alive…”

Sequel to Harvest Moon, my Shimmer Award, Vampie, and Twilighted OC Character award winning story.

Banner made by the wonderfully talented payday00, who was so kind as to put up with my incomprehensible babble and restrictions. Go send her love and read her things.

Bella has always felt alone, but that was fine. She's always had her books, her dreams.

She tends to blame herself, even for things that aren't her fault. Especially when things aren't her fault.

Which makes it harder to get to know people, really. Which is why she turns to stories, to dreams, and to those who reside within them.

What would happen if Bella faced herself? What would happen if the Cullens had more to their histories than a sense of compassion and an impossible biology?

[This is an AU Twilight Re-Write]

(banner by Jlove34)

Bella dismisses Edward when he returns in New Moon. She moved on with Jacob, and promised Edward that he would find happiness and love someday. With the letter she wrote him in hand, he believes her and moves on with his life, in search of his love. Forty years later, he and the rest of the Cullens re-enroll in High school. Two new students throw his world out of orbit and he’s faced with the reality of the promise Bella made him.  

AU after New Moon. Edward is a little OOC because he doesn’t want to repeat history, otherwise, canon couples with the exception of Edward of course. Note: Jacob was a werewolf, but Bella wasn’t necessarily all human herself. Rated NC-17 for language and content in later chapters. Yes there will be lemons but not at first.

Bella Swan is dead *figuratively*...Izzy Black is an emancipated bad girl. Edward Cullen is the vampire that threatens to bring it all down in an inner battle between darkness and light.

Bella and Alice were best friends, which made Bella the only girl off limits to Alice's brother Edward. When a party the summer after graduation gets out of control, Bella's world is turned upside down. "He doesn't know. I don't want him to." 

“Bella, I’m going to give you some privacy. I won’t go far, but I won’t listen either. I know you don’t want an audience, no matter which way you decide to go.”

Three years after his mysterious disappearance, Edward’s final words to Bella still haunt her every waking moment. For her parents, Bella tries to put the past behind her and start a new life but one phone call shatters her fragile new world. Bella must then choose between her new life and the potential heartache of her past.

All canon pairings. NO CHARACTER DEATH. This is an Edward and Bella story.

I'd like to thank ms_ambrosia for the awesome banner!

paydayoo made this beautiful banner, and subsequently, my entire day! <3

My name is Isabella Marie Swan.  I am damaged. I didn't use to be. I used to be that girl who loved literature and music and romantic movies on the Hallmark channel. Now I just try to get through each day without hurting myself — or someone I love. It all started with a boy — isn't that always the case?

After a life-changing event, Bella has left Forks to live with her mom and Phil in Florida.  She's never expected to hear from him again, but when a letter arrives unexpectedly from Edward, it sends her life in a tail spin and forces her to face the demons of her past.  

This story contains the topic of suicide.

*Alternate Ending to New Moon* Consumed by worry about Bella’s depression, Charlie drags her to counseling with a Quileute psychologist, Dr. Nina Carlton. Unbeknownst to Bella, Nina has wolfish relatives in Forks, a past with Charlie, and a shield of her own. When Alice sees Bella throwing herself into harm's way, Edward races back to Forks. He is torn between staying out of Bella's life, as promised, and saving her from peril. Through a journey forged in therapy, friendship, and the support of their parents, Bella and Edward will learn important lessons about themselves and their love.

He’d hurt her and nearly destroyed her. But Edward’s crucial mistake was thinking that Bella wouldn’t fight back. Bella was a lot tougher than she looked and she was damned if she was going to believe for one minute that the last several months of her life had been a lie.

When Edward returns to Bella of his own accord, he does not realise that just a few hours earlier she nearly drowned in an attempt to hear his voice. He soon finds that the girl he came back to is indeed very much altered from the girl he left behind, and that it takes more than saying sorry to rebuild their lives.
