Hey Guys! I have missed you. I have been so busy finishing this story, that I haven't been on this site much lately.
Read this first chapter, and please review! I have stuff to say, (I always do!) but I will save it for the next chapter.
2. FACE THE FACTS by edwardsoul [Reviews - 31] 



(2558 words)
Thank you for the great reviews! You all had such great comments and questions. It's great to hear from friends again, but there are a lot of new names too.
I just want to say a few things that I didn't put in the first chapter notes.
New York City is my MOST FAVORITE PLACE IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!! It is the most amazing place.
Do you want to know how I came up with the vision for LOST? If you don't care, just skip down to the story. Okay, so I was on a date, and he took me to see Michael Buble'. Do you know who he is? He is a little like a modern day Frank Sinatra. He sings Frank and Dean songs, which I love, and he is so sexy that I almost can't stand it!
So, he sings a song called LOST, and as I hear the words, I start thinking to myself, if Edward left Bella, and didn't come back for a long time, that is what he would sing to her. Anyway, the story began weaving it's way into my mind.
There is a lot of music in this story. I always think of my stories as movies, and I have given this one a soundtrack. Don't laugh! Buble's music is the main focus. I have put the words in here if the song fits extremely well, but if that bugs you, you don't have to read it.
Hope you like this!
3. DATES NAMES AND CLUES by edwardsoul [Reviews - 23] 



(3470 words)
Hey Guys! I must say, your reviews are rockin.
A small bit of trivia. I got Thomas Vaughn's name from first - Tom Brady of course, who is a real quarterback and yeah, I don't have to say anything else about him. And Vaughn came from the greatest TV series ever - Alias. Michael Vartan plays Michael Vaughn, and Sydney Bristow (Jennifer Garner) always called him Vaughn. Michael Vartan is one of my top five guys of all time, and Vaughn my most fav. guy TV character. I have all 5 seasons on DVD if you ever want to borrow them. . . .
There are two things I never mentioned. I started this story in July. When Eclipse came out, I was amazed to see two points in the book that will be in this story. I mention a charm bracelet, and Tiffany's. They are minor story lines, but I did't want anyone to think I stole those ideas from Stephenie. (I just stole the whole idea of Edward and Bella is all.)
EDWARD CHAPTER TOMORROW!
4. DISTRACTION by edwardsoul [Reviews - 26] 



(5093 words)
Hey! I am convinced that the best and nicest people are reading my story. Thank you so much!
This is the longest chapter. This first half is Edward's POV, and the second is Bella's.
See you at the end!
5. SECOND SIGHT by edwardsoul [Reviews - 31] 



(5033 words)
YOUR REVIEWS ARE BEYOND THE MOST AMAZING THING EVER!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!
I am worried about this chapter. I can't tell you how many times I've read and re-read it. I wanted to show both pov's, and so it switches from Edward, to Bella, to Edward again. I hope it works. If you don't like it, please tell me.
6. PROBLEM by edwardsoul [Reviews - 21] 



(4799 words)
Hey Guys! You are so awesome that I am speechless. Thank you for all the encouragement on the last chapter. I clapped my hands and jumped up and down in my chair.
Do you want to read some really cool stories on this site? Go to GhostWriter71. "Start with Breaking Don", (a twisted and hilarious one shot), and then try out "Home" and its sequel, "The More Things Change". Trust me!
Tomorrow is Edward's POV on the first day of meetings!
7. FRESH MEAT by edwardsoul [Reviews - 24] 



(5257 words)
Hey everyone! I am once again left speechless by your amazingly great reviews. I don't think I can explain how much they help me. I lose my perspective after reading each chapter like 30 times, and since I know the ending, I need to hear fresh opinions about the story. Please keep them coming!
Two things:
1. I have a song here by the cutie Enrique Eglesias called Somebody's Me. It fits Edward great, I think.
2. I talk about a place called Fraunces Tavern. It is a restaurant right by Wall Street that has been there since 1762. George Washington bid farewell to his troops there. I ate there and it's really cool! Okay, shut up edwardsoul.
See ya at the end!
8. VAMPIRE by edwardsoul [Reviews - 23] 



(4785 words)
Hey Guys!
I want to thank you for all the "better than chocolate" reviews. I have the best people reading my story.
I mention a broadway play in here called "Cyrano De Bergerac". It's a play that is actually playing in NYC right now.
Thank you!
See ya at the end!
9. BLOOD by edwardsoul [Reviews - 48] 



(7684 words)
Hey guys! I can't believe it's 4:00 and I am barely getting this out!
Quickly . . . . I hope that you won't be disappointed by my choice of Cullens. Hopefully at the end you will understand my choice.
There is a band mentioned here called JET. I love them! The nightclub Northsix is real, and it is a hot place. So, imagine that Jet is playing songs like, Are You Gonna Be My Girl, Fool of Everyone, and Cold Hard &^%#, and you will have a great time at the club.
See ya at the end!
10. CLUE-ANGEL by edwardsoul [Reviews - 33] 



(4449 words)
Hey everybody! First of all, thank you for not being angry I didn't send Alice. You were all very forgiving. Thank you!
Daintress asked how long the story is, well . . . .it is like 80,000+ words long. There are like 3 chapters left. That brings me to my next point, Can you guys give me one more chapter of Edward's POV? Today's chapter is actually two chapters put together. You guys have been so great, I put two days into one.
This chapter is kinda what I would call the transition chapter. In other words, after this, everything begins to happen! Can you please not abandon me yet! I know many of you are getting frustrated at Edward's lack of courage.
The angel chapter, has a song at the beginning. Please don't think I'm a nerd, but I think it is a beautiful song, and wait until you read the words. I have never had a song fit one of my chapters as well as this one. It even says twilight three times in the song. It fits perfectly.
Love you all!
See ya at the end!
11. COMPETITION by edwardsoul [Reviews - 35] 



(7786 words)
Wow! I think I say that every time, but WOW! I was completely unprepared for all the great things you guys had to say.
I hope any songs in this chapter do not detract from the story. I took them out, and put them back in because I felt like it just drew us in more.
Okay, so I have this fantasy. . .A beautiful man takes me to a place like the Rainbow Room, and we dance all night to songs from the 40's like, "Sway" and "That's All". Oh, and I will be wearing a really hot dress. *sigh* It could happen. . . . .
See ya at the end . . .
UPDATE: THERE IS AN ARTICLE IN HERE, AND I HAVE TRIED EVERY FORMAT AND I CAN'T MAKE IT LOOK RIGHT. I AM SORRY. JUST KNOW THAT I DIND'T WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE THAT!
12. AMMUNITION by edwardsoul [Reviews - 28] 



(8616 words)
Apparently, you could fill the heat. I have very entertaining reviews to look back on for this chapter.
Love you all - see you at the end!
13. THE GIFT by edwardsoul [Reviews - 24] 



(2806 words)
Your reviews are the best! I am so sad for this story to end, because I don't want to let you guys go! I have the best people in the world reading my story.
See ya at the end!
14. FOOL by edwardsoul [Reviews - 35] 



(6649 words)
Hey guys! Your reviews are better than I deserve.
Will Edward finally tell Bella how he feels?
Have a great Friday! Love you all!
See ya at the end!
15. LOST by edwardsoul [Reviews - 20] 



(6219 words)
I appreciate all of you sticking with me to the end. I don't want to let you all go!
Your reviews have been helpful and kind and hilarious! They have made it easy for me to get up at 5:00 in the morning so that I can look over the chapter and make changes and try to make it a little bit better, because you have deserved it so much.
I will come back and read my reviews often. Especially if I have had a bad day.
Two things:
This chapter has the song LOST in it by Michael Buble'. This is the song that started it all for me. When I heard it at the concert, the story began writing itself in my head. It is one of his best and I hope you hear it soon!
I will talk about a brand of shoe called Manolo Blahnik. They are usually $1,000 or more, and very beautiful. Google it and look at the Fall Collection to see the shoes Bella has been wearing!
See ya at the end! Don'f forget the epilogue!
