Let's Get Visual, Visual

I was asked by a wonderful reader if I was planning on doing some visuals for this story. I've never really done much with pictures before because I never seem to find anything close to what I see in my head, but since its finals week and I will do anything to procrastinate studying, I went ahead and found some fun pics for you guys. Please note these are just roundabout representations : ) Enjoy!

Meet Edward

The wonderful ImHereToReview was generous enough to interview Edward for us so you can get a sneak peek into his personality before the story starts! Enjoy.

IHTR: Edward, have you ever had a female roommate?

Edward: Does my mom count? I mean I’ve had girls in my room obviously, but I’ve never lived with one technically and I’m telling you I hit the fucking shit jackpot with Bella. If she’s anything like she was in high school, I’ll be riding the bitch train the whole time.

IHTR: But you obviously had some type of relationship with her at some point?

Edward: Yeah. When it was good it was really good. But I'd say it ended a pretty fucking sour note.

IHTR: Wanna talk about that?

Edward: Nope.

IHTR: What type of work do you do?


Edward: I don’t really work…yet. I’m still figuring a few things out.


IHTR: It looks like you didn’t bring much with you to the apartment, what’s your favorite piece of furniture?


Edward: My brother Emmett and I were really drunk one night and stumbled across this beanbag lying by a dumpster. We took it home and Lysol’d the shit out of it. It goes everywhere with me.
 

IHTR: Sounds...interesting.  What does your new roommate think of your hand-me-down?

Edward: I don't think Bella really cares. She seems pretty hell bent on just surviving this lease with me.

IHTR: And what about you Edward?

Edward: I'm surviving...among other things.

Preview!

     “Bella!” Angela peeked her head out from the kitchen. “I’m so glad you made it home before I left. This is the last box.”
           A sound echoed from down the hallway, coming from the bedroom formerly known as Angela’s. I peeked my head around the corner and saw a shadow move across the doorway.
           “He’s here already?” I whispered.
           “Yeah. He didn’t have much…Good thing the living and dining room furniture was mostly yours or you’d have an empty apartment.” She leaned in close and smirked. “I’m not going to lie. He’s really hot.”
           “Really?” I squeaked.
           “I mean I know you’re kinda-sorta dating Paul, but there will be a gorgeous guy sleeping not twenty feet from you. I say you should take advantage of it. I don’t think he has a girlfriend.”
           I peeked my head into the hallway again. Now I was fucking curious as to who this knight in shining armor was. Angela was right, I had been on a few dates with this guy I met at the bookstore. He was nice…but that was about it. Nice. The only guy I’d ever been serious with was my boyfriend from high school and that was a fucking train wreck. He was the only person I ever really loved and it didn’t end well. If I never saw him again it would be too soon. Way too soon.
           “Here let me introduce you.” Angela smiled and skipped down the hallway, pulling me behind her. I popped my sucker into my mouth and took a deep breath as we stepped into the room. “Bella this is your new roommate.” He was turned away from me, shrugging out of his leather jacket. He set it on the bed and ran his fingers through his messy bronze hair and turned towards me. As soon as I saw his face, I inhaled a sharp breath and started choking on my sucker.
           I doubled over and started hacking until it popped out onto the floor and rolled towards his feet. “Shit!” I whispered, not wanting to look him in the eye. This is not happening Bella. You’re hallucinating. The only reason you see his face right now is because you were just thinking about him.
           “I’d know that gag reflex anywhere,” he teased.
           My fists clenched at my sides as I straightened back up. “Fuck,” I mumbled. I wasn’t hallucinating. He was here. Right in front of me. The only boy I’d ever loved and the one I never wanted to see again.
           “This is…” Angela started.
           “Edward fucking Cullen what are you doing in my apartment?!”
