We did it kids, the last chapter! My snark/commentary is in italics now.
There was no point in her broken heart.
God Edward, you’re a douche, Godzilla scale.
What a wasteful sadness, when there was no valid reason for her not to be with the one she wanted.
How do you know that? Christ on a cracker, you’re such an unlikeable teen/sparklevamp.
Was it because I knew that I was the only one who could see clearly?
Underestimating human eye much?
Listen I remember high school days when we saw movies in the theater, it wasn’t dark enough… I know this first hand.
Between he body and mine, the electricity hummed.
Color me shocked.
She didn’t move all through the hour, holding her stiff, controlled pose as I held mind.
How does she do it?
I can’t stay still on my seat, I move around a lot. Drives my mother nuts.
Bella was like a soap bubble—fragile and ephemeral.
Oh man, corny and ridiculous.
She would not always be within my arm’s reach…
Yes she will, ‘cause you know, she loves you more than anything and everything and she will rather die than to live without you…
*Barf*
Because I couldn’t allow myself near her if I insisted on making errors.
How about, you not being near her, period.
Alice’s visions were not what I wanted to think about.
Why? Because they’re pretty much dictating the way you act towards Bella?
Or change your mind about stuff?
Please tell me.
Rosalie was a pain, but I would always owe her one for choosing Emmett.
Edward, has it ever crossed your mind that the problem is… you? I mean, everything and anything bothers you, but it’s always other people’s fault. Never you.
Dude, you have a problem.
Edward Cullen was going to ask Angela out? But… no. I don’t like that. I don’t want him near her. He’s… not right for her. Not… safe.
Ok where to begin?
WTF is on with every male on this series about protecting women and knowing what’s “right” for them? It’s annoying, insulting and very… 1500’s.
Ok, feministt issues aside (for now), for some reason Ben actually hits the nail on the head about not being safe.
But that’s because I’m sure that his douchebag radar is going off the charts with Edward.
I can only hope.
“Huh”, I said arrogantly as I turned back to Emmett.
So, you were being yourself for once.
I liked this Ben. He seemed bright and well-meaning. Maybe even worthy of a girl like Angela.
Dude, stop making standards for other people and please stop judging people by their thoughts. A thought is nothing more than that. A thought.
I had to remind myself that murdering Mike Newton was not a permissible option.
*Sigh*
I repeat Edward: You have a problem, and a big part of that is anger.
“I’ll stay back here,” Bella said, embarrassment and chagrin on her face rather than pain. Maybe Mike had gotten the worst of it. I certainly hoped that was the case.
You’re such a douche.
By the way Meyer, you did it yet again: Describe a complete scene that Edward should not be able to see. I was under the impression that Edward only read minds.
Big time failure on your part again.
He didn’t recognize the real phenomenon—that she picked me.
Huh, I’m reading this “book” and so far, Edward is the one who has been doing the stalking and he’s following the vision his “sister” had. But I can't help but to wonder, had Bella said ''No'', would Edward respect that answer?
But then again, we all know how this is going to end.
You and the freak. I guess, if a rich guy is that important to you…
I gritted my teeth at his degrading assumption.
Deal. With. It. Edward. You’ve been doing the same thing for every single person on this town, now you deal with it.
And fyi: Mike totally called it.
I began to worry that Forks was becoming too aware…
I’m surprised it took them this long.
Why would she laugh at the suggestion that I could kill her, when she knew it was entirely true?
Because it’s Bella, she’s messed up, you know?
Did she have a morbid sense of humor? That didn’t fit my idea of her character, but how could I be sure?
Keywords here: MY IDEA (his).
Because really, Edward doesn't know Bella. No matter what he thinks he knows about her, he doesn't. He's never spoken to her the conversation they have on their way to his car is the longest they had since they met. Really.
Or maybe my daydream of the giddy angel was true in one respect, in that she had no sense of fear at all.
No, she’s just stupid. That’s all.
Brave—that was one word for it.
No, it’s not.
Others may say stupid, but I knew how bright she was.
No you don’t KNOW HER damn it! You THINK you do, but you don’t. And YES it’s stupid, she IS stupid.
Maybe she would always need me here…
Just like that, my mood was soaring.
Yay for Bella being dependent on Edward to always save her! Hurray!
[Douche]
She was usually quick to forgive.
If you mean: ‘Forgive me’ then yes. ‘Cause she’s a doormat.
“What kind of car is that?” she wondered.
Bella, are you trying to tell me that you’ve never seen the BMW logo? Bullshit. I know jack squat about cars and I know a BMW when I see one.
Bull-fucking-shit.
“How about I mean it, and I agree to let you drive this Saturday?” I cringed internally at the thought.
Oh poor Edward, he will go on a car that actually respects transit rules. Oh woe is him.
“Um,” she said “it doesn’t help with the Charlie situation if an unexplained Volvo is left on the driveway.”
There’s no Charlie situation (other than her not wanting to tell Charlie she’s going to Seattle with Edward), she’s just being dramatic.
Not us. Not our family. We would trade anything to be human.
Really? Really?
Did it hurt her to leave, as it hurt me to let her go?
Yes, because you’re both so in love.
The only solace was that I would see her soon. Sooner than she would see me.
Creepy as fuck. And invasive. Why do people like this guy, again?
I hit the gas, and then sighed as she disappeared behind me.
You’re always speeding right? I hate you.

And on that note: We’re done! I did it! I finished this piece of crap at long last!
I feel happy that it’s finally over, now I’m going to be able to do other stuff at leisure without having to stop and carry on with this stuff.
I’m done with Midnight Sun.
I deserve cake for this.
It was oddly consoling to know I wasn’t the only one living out a tragic love story. Heartbreak was everywhere.
Gee, dramatic much?
But I will say this, poor Angela suffering for Ben… is every female on this series unhappy without a man? Wait, don't answer that. I already know the answer.
Geez.
God Edward, you’re a douche, Godzilla scale.
