Memories of Christmas Past, teaser and polyvore for chapter 3.

Here is your teaser for chapter 3. See you Friday when it posts!!

“I missed you,” Edward said softly while pulling me down on the blanket next to him.

He buried his nose in my hair and I could hear him inhaling deeply. He’d told me he loved the smell of my coconut scented shampoo and body wash.

“Mmm, I missed you too,” I whispered as I rolled to my side and snuggled up against him.

“Thank you for the picnic dinner. It was perfect.” He placed a kiss on the top of my head and wrapped his arms around me tighter.

“Well when you’d said you’d had a crazy week I figured the last thing you needed was to be sitting in a crowded restaurant and I thought a picnic would be better than take out. And besides it’s so quiet here and it’s—”

“Our spot,” he said, finishing the sentence for me as he rolled me onto my back.

I gasped softly as his lips skimmed down the slope of my throat until he reached the spot where it met my shoulder. He switched between gentle sucking and wet open mouthed kisses that sent shivers down my spine.

I could feel my heart thumping wildly in my chest and my hands tugging on his hair as his lips traveled even lower until they were kissing the top of the valley where my breasts came together. Soon his mouth was traveling back up and along the sensitive skin of my neck.

“I love you,” he whispered, stopping as he reached the corner of my lips.

“I love you too,” I breathed, hardly able to speak due to the sensations he was stirring within me.

We remained like that for a while, kissing and making out like a couple of high school kids. When his hand crept up under the hem of my shirt I thought perhaps he wanted to make love right here by the lake.

I’d never made love outside or in any public place for that matter, but with Edward it somehow seemed incredibly perfect and I knew if he wanted to I wouldn’t stop him.

Memories of Christmas Past chapter 2 teaser

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Below is the polyvore picture for chapter 2. In the back ground you will notice the prom gazebo scene from Twilight. In chapter 2 of Memories of Christmas Past Bella and Edward dance under the gazebo during their date and they are kissing in the polyvore image. But is it a kiss goodbye or a kiss to celebrate? Read the teaser below the picture and you tell me. See ya with the next chapter on Friday!!

She finally blew out a long breath and began, “Judging by your reaction, I am guessing it’s safe to assume you saw Edward.”

I nodded again.

“How was it?”

“Not at all what I expected,” I said to her, trying to finally answer her directly and honestly without giving anything away. And the truth was, seeing Edward again hadn’t been at all what I’d expected so by answering her as I had I wasn’t lying to her at all.

“What does that mean?”

“It means exactly what I said. It wasn’t at all what I was expecting,” I told her.

“Am I going to have to pry the details from you? Since when have you been so reluctant to share anything with me?”

“What do you want me to say, Mom?” I popped up off the couch and flew across the room. It was becoming increasingly clear that I was going to have to say a lot more than I wanted to. It angered me that she was forcing my hand. It angered me that she couldn’t just accept the obvious fact that I didn’t really want to talk about this with her. And if I was completely honest with myself, it scared me because I had no idea what she’d say about the conversation Edward and I had, had the other night. I was afraid to let her get into my head again and cause me to doubt any of what he’d said to me or belittle the fact that Edward and I might still have feelings for each other after all this time.

“Well, I don’t know, Bella. How did he react to seeing you?” I could tell by the surprised almost confused look on her face that she just wasn’t getting why I didn’t want to share any of the details with her.

“Don’t you mean was he upset to see me? How about if he’s married or has a girlfriend? Or how ‘bout does he hate me for the way I dumped him?”

“No…well not exactly. Yes I would like to know all of those things, but I was more concerned about how you were handling his reactions. I’ve seen how you’ve been…I don’t know…restless the past few days. I know you’ve been scanning the help wanted section of the paper and thought maybe you were stressing over finding a job.” She paused and let out a long sigh. “It’s just now you tell me that’s not it. So the only other reasonable conclusion I can draw is that you’ve seen Edward and you are upset over something.”

Let's try this again.

I'm not entirely sure what I did wrong when sending out that last post, but here is take two. Hopefully this one turns out right.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Now that we are all sufficiently stuffed with turkey and have shopped until we dropped, I have some good news for you. Next Friday, December 2nd, I will begin posting my new story.

It's a Christmas themed story and below you will find the banner, the summary, and a sneak peek of it.





~*Memories of Christmas Past*~

Summary: Bella and Edward dated in high school When a tragedy occurs she is forced to move away from Forks. Six years later another tragedy occurs, but this time it brings her back to Forks. What happens when she spends Christmas Eve with the Cullens and she comes face to face with Edward for the first time since she broke his heart six years earlier.

Sneak Peek:The more I thought about it, I began to wonder again if I should just leave. Perhaps he was upset that I was here. I wondered if maybe he didn’t want me here and how I would’ve reacted if he’d had someone with him. You’re so stupid, Bella. You should have thought about all that before you agreed to be here tonight.

I was still mentally chastising myself when without warning the voice I hadn’t heard since last time I’d been in this house cut through the room like a hot knife slicing through butter.

See you Friday!!

What has Eternally Addicted been up to?

Hello everyone!!

It might seem as though I've been relaxing and watching Breaking Dawn clips, but the truth is I have been very busy. Okay, so yeah I have been watching the Breaking Dawn clips and counting down the days until the movie hits the theaters, but I have been working on some awesome stuff too.

The first thing I have been working on is completing the Christmas story I started for the Famdon4LLS fundraiser, Memories of Christmas Past. It is completed and will begin posting on Saturday December 3rd.

In case you don't know what it is about here is the summary…

Bella and Edward dated in high school. When a tragedy occurs, she is forced to move away from Forks. Six years later another tragedy uproots her life, but this time it brings her back to Forks. What happens when she spends Christmas Eve with the Cullens and she comes face to face with Edward for the first time since she broke his heart six years earlier? Will love blossom again, or will it be too late? You will have to read to find out.

Look for a teaser to post here a few days before the story goes up. Hope to see you then.

In addition to working on my own story, I have been busy writing a new story with My-Bella. We had so much fun working together on, Worth the Burn that we decided to do it again.

Our new story is called Beneath the Surface, and we are so excited for you to read it. Here is a little about it...

By day, Bella Cullen works with dolphins at Sea World. By night ... Well, she's still working with the dolphins most nights, making sure each and every one of them is safe in their enclosure and fed well. She loves marine life and loves her job, but she's also ready for something more. That something more will take her from sunny Florida to one of the largest aquariums in the country and to a brand new state. But before she can work at the Georgia Aquarium, she has a tiny little spec on her nearly perfect marine life records to correct. She's been ignoring a species that is one of the biggest draws to the aquarium—Sharks. She’s got one summer, an internship in Africa, and a boatload of fear to get through in order to be ready for her dream job in the fall. She’ll battle bloodlust and sharp teeth to get what she wants—and that’s just from the crew she’ll be working with. If her bravery holds out, or her stubbornness, she can make all of her dreams come true.

Cocky bastard. Stubborn Ass. Kid. Boss. These are the names that Edward Masen answers to when he isn’t being called by his last name. Those who love him and know him best would also add in insufferable know-it-all, yet he’s the string that binds them all together and makes it possible for all of their different personalities to mesh. In his world, work comes first, followed closely by family, and then rounded out by his many hobbies. He’s a born leader despite his lack of social skills and a pretty good teacher when he takes his time—which is hard for a man with a severe lack of patience. But he’s also determined and nothing is going to get in the way of his plans. He’s going to succeed where others have failed; he wants it too much for there to be any other outcome.

Want to know how these two very different people fit together? We could tell you, but we’d much rather show you! Join us for “Beneath the Surface” and solve the puzzle.

We have an awesome blog set up for you to explore all the things about Beneath the Surface . You can follow them on twitter, find teasers, read weekly blog posts from Masen’s crew, learn about sharks, and see pictures of the story characters as well as pictures pertaining to the story happenings.

I have been helping my friend and fellow fanfic author, NoelleSeven with her new story. As her beta I can tell you that I think you will really like it.

Summary: This is a story about growing up, and the people who come and out of our lives. Some are gone forever, and others only until we meet again.

Teaser: Taking a sip from her soda that Ben had politely gotten for her, Bella took a glance around the room. Her entire body seemed to tense up as a familiar set of green eyes locked with hers. She had seen them before in Port Angeles when she had accompanied her mother into a coffee shop. They were staring at her with the same intensity as before. Bella swallowed heavily and took in the way his brows furrowed as he stared at her, his straight nose, full lips, and angular jaw. He was extremely good-looking, but also looking at her like she did something wrong. It was his hair that shocked her most of all though, being that it was in complete disarray and peculiar shade of bronze that she hadn’t seen before that first time she saw him in the coffee shop. She quickly looked away, her face feeling like it was on fire, and turned around so that she was facing Angela and Ben. When she peaked over her shoulder, the green eyed guy was still staring at her.

“Hey, Ben,” Bella said, clearing her throat. “Who’s that guy over there with the wild hair? The one that is glaring at me.”

She watched as Ben took a glance over her shoulder, and then his eyes scanned the crowd. Bella wondered if the guy was gone.

“Well, I don’t see anyone glaring at you, but there’s only one guy I see with wild hair. Are you talking about the guy in the long sleeved black shirt sitting in the armchair?”

Bella peaked over her shoulder again. That was him all right…except now his stare was directed at the empty fireplace.

“That’s him,” Bella confirmed.

Ben chuckled a little and took a sip of his drink.

“That’s Edward Masen.”

Stop by her profile page and put her on alert so you will be ready when she posts the first chapter next Friday November 4^th.
