Through the Kitchen Window

Through the Kitchen Window by TheFicChick

"From very early on, I worried that the biggest thing in my youngest son's life would be the girl he could never escape. I thought it would be horrible for his story to be so ensnared with someone else's, such a tangled ball of yarn that it couldn't be unknotted. Bright, colorful, beautiful to be sure, but so hopelessly snarled in and around itself that it would never be freed."

The Prettiest Regret by TheFicChick

The Prettiest Regret

He looks like summer. He looks like freedom. He looks like the best kind of bad idea.

Returning home for the summer after a year of wild parties, random one night stands, freedom and independence in college, Bella Swan feels like she's suffocating in the confines of her old home and conservative parents, curfews and restricting rules. That is until she finds a piece of her old, carefree self in the carnival that visited town - and a guy who makes her realize that not everything in her little town is bland and boring; sometimes, breaking the rules is so much better with the perfect stranger.

A little OOC because of bad girl, non-clumsy Bella, this is a fairly quick read, with a dash of lemon, some really profound thoughts about life and growing up and (hold your breaths!) plot twist! I love plot twists. However, I couldn't help but wish for more, like what happens after and all that stuff. 

Enjoy! x

I’ve revised my theory on souls. I don’t...know for sure how I feel about mine. Still. But I don’t think I could love the way I do without at least some semblance of one. I think that’s where the love lives. And if I still have mine, then...it isn’t biological. It doesn’t die when the body does. So it stands to reason that Tyler’s is still out there somewhere. And if he loves you the way it seems like he did, the way he must have, then it’s waiting for yours.

Ever since you've known me, I've been in love with dead men. Like I said: time to stop running from what I'm meant to be.

Bella Swan to Jacob Black in Infinite Visibility

Jacob, my number was up the day I walked into that biology classroom and sat down next to Edward Cullen. He should have killed me right there without a second thought. Then he should have killed me in the forest, in my bedroom, in his bedroom...a hundred different times over. Jasper should have killed me on my birthday, James should have killed me in Phoenix, Laurent should have killed me in the meadow. I should have drowned when I jumped off a cliff, and I probably should have been abducted on the back of that deadbeat's motorcycle. I should have been in that building. With Tyler. My number was up then, too. And then when it came down, I should have been crushed beneath concrete dust and debris. I should have died with him. But I didn't. I should have died a few times over, and I've been cheating death since I was seventeen. Maybe it's time I stop running.

Just because your daddy's not here doesn't mean I don't still love him.

Bella Swan to Skyler Hawkins in Infinite Visibility

I love you so much. I'll love you forever. Whatever comes after this, I'll still be loving you. Loving you is the biggest thing about me.

Loving you has made my entire life.
