You know those fics where Edward doesn't come back and Bella forgets about him and five seconds later she's in bed with Jacob and none of it makes any damn sense?
Yeah, this isn't one of them.
This story picks up from the moment in New Moon when Jacob has driven Bella home after the cliff diving incident, right before he catches the scent of Alice. Only in this telling, Alice wasn't looking, so there's no sudden appearance at Bella's house, no Rosalie calling Edward and sending him on a suicidal mission to Volterra, and no reason for Bella to do anything but believe that Edward didn't love her anymore. This is simply a story of what might have happened if everyone stayed mostly in character and Edward's return was delayed. Yes, delayed. Because we all know that he was "this close" to coming back on his own anyhow. So what would have happened if Bella had tried to move on with her life?

More than blood | Cullen Family
Edward finds an injured girl in the forest. He calls Carlisle to save her... She becomes the newest member of the Cullen family. If you're afraid of spoilers, then I guess that's all you need to know from a description. If you would like to know more: ⚠️ Spoiler Alert! If you don't want any spoilers at all, now is the time to stop reading the description and just jump into the story. Really. I mean it. 👀 Still reading? Okay, don't say I didn't warn you. 😅 📚 Reading Note: The first 35-40 chapters focus mainly on the Cullens adopting Lara and her settling into the Cullen family and her new life in Forks. For me, they feel a bit like comfort food-lots of soft moments, cozy family vibes, and small conflicts here and there, but nothing too dramatic (yet). You could even read many of them like gentle, connected one-shots. If you're here for Bella: she enters the story in chapter 34, but just a heads-up-this story isn't about Bella. So what is it about? At its heart, this is a story about finding family.❤️ What if the Cullens adopted a teenager and what would parenting look like for Esme and Carlisle if they suddenly had to raise an actual teenage girl-with all that comes with it? Let's just say... things won't stay as smooth as they are in the first 30-40 chapters. 🫣Complete

Bella and The Cullens
One day, while hunting in Washington, Esme, Alice, and Edward hear a little girl crying. When they go to investigate, they find a traumatized five-year-old named, Isabella Swan. After they adopt her, what happens? Do Bella and Edward get together? Do Bella and Jacob get together? I guess we'll just have to wait and see. NOTES: ~In this book Bella was born in 1997, rather than 1987. ~I know Tanya isn't a brat in the books, but for the sake of this fanfic, gimme some grace. ~Alice is the only one that knows Bella used to cut herself. ~I apologize for any grammar mistakes. ~Bella has a slight fear of cuss words. She remembers people cussing and screaming at her, as a child. Therefore associating curse words with someone coming to hurt her.

Clouds Against the Eclipse
If you've ever wondered what New Moon would have been like if: Bella never jumped off that cliff, Alice had never come back, Bella never went after Edward and instead had ended up allowing herself to be with Jacob...this is the fan fiction for you!!❤️ (UPDATE: This story is now COMPLETE! I'd love your thoughts!) A passionate, heart-wrenching love affair between the Twilight Saga's Bella Swan and Jacob Black finally comes to fruition one stormy night when they kiss in Bella's kitchen. After that moment they're thrown into a whirlwind of colliding emotions and erotic pleasures, battling between Bella's intense newfound love for Jacob and the painful wound Edward Cullen left behind...a wound she can't seem to fully get past. In this universe, Jacob is the same age as Bella (they are both 18 in this story) since in my opinion him being younger provides nothing relevant or beneficial lol :) **I definitely do NOT own the rights to Twilight or any of the characters used in this story. This is a 100% fictional work inspired by the characters/plot of Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series!Complete
