So, Saturday we meet again. I have yet another awesomely, wonderfully, brilliant story for you. I know I may be doing a bit of older fics here, but trust me oldies are always goodies.
Onward!
Summery: This was 1987; before the Internet, before Twitter, before Facebook –
this was back when it was still possible for people not to know about
things: big things - like bands, and little things - like G-spots. AH,
ExB, with some other parings along the way.
What can I say about this fic that hasn't already been said? I don't think there's much, but I'll try. I'm such a Huge fan of stories like this. I can't say that enough. I crave fics that have me screaming and crying at my screen for all the things I want the characters to do. And this fic had me right till the end, with tons of turns and questions. I wanted to know what every word, and look meant, and man I want to punch Edward a lot. I wanted to punch Bela sometimes too, but I can totally relate to being young and in love with something you really shouldn't be in love with.
This fic has made it's way onto the top of a very short, die hard Love list for me. I think there's only 4 others giving it company right now. And for me that's saying a lot... Well at least I hope it says a lot. I know as soon as this posts I'll be found nose first rereading this baby for the 5th or 6th time.
Yeah, it's that good.
"The story began a long time ago," I explain, pushing my daughter's long brown hair out of her face and behind her ear.
"How long ago, Mommy?"
I quickly do the math. Then I gasp. "Twenty-four years ago."
"That's close to a hundred, right?"
"Closer to that than I'd like, Little One," I chuckle.
"And you were a girl then?"
"I was almost grown up, but not quite."
"Like a teenager?"
"Exactly. I was a teenager."
"And you lived with Grandpa and Grandma?"
I pause. It's hard to believe my parents ever lived under the same roof. I don't like to remember that time in their history.
"Yes. They still lived together, then."
"But not anymore, right?"
"Right. This story began when they were just beginning divorce proceedings."
