Missing Moments

This blog is filled with "missing moments" from the Twilight books series. So that's parts of books in different POVs, or when things were mentioned and not fully explained, and I included one NM alternative (if Edward didn't come back) because its the best one, in my opinion. Enjoy!

Summary: Breaking Dawn Spoilers: Edward's point of view in the last three pages of Breaking Dawn. Edward/Bella fluff. Winner of the "Most Romantic" category in the Twilight Awards' Breaking Dawn Round.

Why Read? Because its a lovely short of the end of Breaking Dawn, that is so amazingly written that I actually keep a copy at the end of my book. I can't decide if i like this ending in Edwards POV better then the actually written ending.

Summary: Six years after Edward left in NM, Bella is a teacher in Rochester, NY. What will she do when a very familiar student turns up in her classroom? Can she stay professional, or will old ties and secrets get in the way?

Why Read? I know this isn't really a "missing moment" since Edward came back, but this is my favorite example of what would have happened if edward didn't come back and everyone when on living. I don't normally like these types of stories simply because I don't find them 'realistic' or over the top dramatic, or bella becomes a vampire or goes and joins the Volturi or something, but this is simply exactly what I think would have happened. Though its extremely angst filled, its well what it needs to be. After being abandoned by Edward, no one can expect Bella to just leap back into his arms all lovey dovey. There are some serious issues now that have to be addressed and this fan fic has them all.

Summary: Edward seeks out the counsel of his father and brothers after agreeing to be with Bella after their wedding. What will Edward do with that advise and how will he and Bella prepare for their upcoming wedding night.

Why Read? There isn't much I can say here, I liked it because it felt like what would really have been said if Edward did chose to talk to his family about the wedding night. It's well written and read if this is something that sounds interesting to you.

Summary: This is my version of New Moon as told from Edward's point of view. The dialogue is borrowed from New Moon when Edward and Bella are together , but the rest is my interpretation of what the story would have been like if Edward would have told it.

Why Read? I know there are a lot of Edward's POVs for different stories, and my favorite (a lot because it was the first fanfic i read) is Thy Beauty for the ending of new moon, but this version cover's the whole book which i find fascinating, and Sunray16's interpretation is my second favorite. I also like that there's Edward's POV for Eclipse which i always thought would be hard to write because its dramatic, but more so emotionally especially with the whole edward/bella/jake thing. If you ever wanted to read these books in Edward POV, this is the one you should chose!




Title: Whole
Author: Subtlynice
Rating: K+
Genre: Family/Friendship
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: After centuries of waiting, the Cullen family is finally complete. Rosalie observes as the last piece of their puzzle finally slots into place. Breaking Dawn missing moment. Oneshot, canon pairings. Cullen family fluff! (rose/nessie)

Why Read? its a lovely moment with the Cullen family. I'm not a big fan of Rose in the books but this really gives you an interesting look into her mind and makes her more of a real and connectable character.




Title: Thy Beauty
Author: Subtlynice
Rating: T
Genre: Romane/Angst
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: Death, that hath suck'd the honey of thy breath, hath had no power yet upon thy beauty... -The final chapters of New Moon from Edward's perspective. Including Volterra, The Truth and Vote-

This was actually one of the very first fan fiction's i ever read. It's what got me hooked and after i just couldn't stop reading more and more. Its filled with such great emotion and flow, i don't think SM could write a better version of events from EPOV. Everyone should take the time and read this, though its just a different pov of events, it feels like a whole new story.

Summary: The door opened behind me, with a cold gust of wind suddenly sweeping through the room...carrying that scent! I froze. Not again!...The fragrance was maddening. Twilight from EPOV, from the beginning, past where Midnight Sun ends. Nominated Bellie's Award

Why Read? Because we all wanted Midnight Sun to be completed, who doesn't want to know what Edward's thinking throughout Twilight?? This is the best ending i've come across, so if you are looking for Twilight in Edward's POV, chose this story.




Title: Delay

Genere: Romance/Hurt/Comfort
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: This is a one-shot about what happened after Bella reopened the window when Edward had crippled her truck so she couldn’t go to La Push. It’s set between chapter 2 and 3 in Eclipse.

Genre: Drama/Angst
Complete/Last Update: Complete
Summary: From the beginning of Eclipse. This is a quick one shot, in the school yard, when Jacob shows Edward his memories of Bella from when Edward was gone. What did Jacob really show Edward? How did it make Edward feel? Edward's POV.

Summary: It's Valentines' day, 2005. Living with three perfectly matched couples is hard work if you’re a 100-year-old vampire who’s never been in love. Add Isabella Swan and her admirers into the mix... and let's just say this'll be a day for Edward to remember

Summary: New Moon entirely from Alice's point of view. Her relationship with Jasper, her visions, her thoughts, feelings and emotions. Starting with Bella's disastrous birthday party. Nominated for the "Twilight Story Competition" in the DPOV category!

Why Read? This is an amazing retelling of New Moon. Most people are all over Edward's retelling (the one i have here is quite amazing) but i feel a lot of people forget that Alice has just as much to do with the end of NM as E or B. The perspective is amazing, because it's Alice and it has the whole time after edward leaves, to seeing Bella and heading off to save edward. Still being worked on but worth the wait in between each post.

Summary: In the early 1950's, just when things seem to be settling for the five Cullens, the unexpected entrance of a mysterious couple heralds a great change. The story of Jasper and Alice's arrival from Carlisle's perspective. In canon and character.

Really interesting story about the first meeting of Alice&Jasper and the Cullens, told from Carlisle's POV which adds a really interesting spin on it.




Title: No Choice

Summary: New Moon AU. During Bella's run in with Laurent, what if the wolves had shown up just a few minutes later? Those minutes change Bella's life forever, and she must learn to deal with the consequences. Nominated for two Twific Indie Awards.

This is the only "what if" story that i really like, most of the time i find that stories where Bella is changed after Edward leaves are just not fitting with who the characters really are, but not this story. I really think this is what would have happened, or the best case scenario, amazing read.

Summary: "30s Dust Bowl Oklahoma. A stark, desolate place where there are Dust storms, starvation and despair. Bella has just moved into town and meets the afflicted Edward. Sparks fly amidst all the desolation and they find comfort in each other. Contains Lemon"

Why Read? This is a kind of a retelling of Twilight, just in a different era with a new twist here and there. I find its nice to reread something that's the basis for everything here in a way, see how each author takes and leaves different parts of the plot and what they do to "make it their own". Great read.
