I remember the first time I saw Dr. Carlisle Cullen, played by Peter Facinelli and the first time I saw Esme Cullen, played by Elizabeth Reaser. When Carlisle appeared for the first time in Twilight I remember my cousin (who is who made me watch the movie and I hadn't read the books yet) clapped and the truth it's that's a really movie-star like appearance. You are like "wow, who is he"? And then they tell you "he's Edward's adoptive father" and you're like "really? You're joking! He's so young!" And then it's when I thought I didn't understand why so many people say Edward is so handsome when Carlisle is handsomer… But, well, that's only my opinion. I've always thought he's much handsomer than Ed. And apart from that, I thought he was really kind and nice, although with something mysterious, because, of course, he's a vampire.

Later I saw Esme. The first thing I thought was that she was like a porcelain doll or a fairytale princess or queen. She was (and she is) so sweet and beautiful... I thought she was really nice and kind and that Carlisle and she were a really beautiful and cute couple (and indeed they are). They fitted perfectly together (and indeed they do). There are two characters I've always liked. I admire Carlisle's goodwill and strength and Esme's kindness and loveliness, but I certainly didn't fell in love with them so much until I knew more about Esme's human life and her love story with Dr. Cullen. When I read Twilight Official Illustrated Guide and I found out she had met and fell in love with Dr. Carlisle Cullen when she was 16, I felt delighted. Such a romantic story!! And I felt terribly sorry for her when he had to leave and she had to marry Charles Evenson, an abusive man, against her will. Poor dear, I felt terrible for her. I really admire that she left her horrible husband to save her baby after her parents didn't help her (what kind of parents they were? Terrible). I think she was really brave. Being alone with a child at that time… Terribly difficult. And when that little baby died… God, I can understand she jumped the cliff. The poor thing felt she'd lost everything, her true love, her child… She was so alone… Poor darling. It was wonderful Carlisle found and changed her. It was wonderful they saw each other again, and even more wonderful Carlisle also fell in love with her and they married. I felt great after knowing their story and I fell in love with it, of course. After all, I'm also a hopeless romantic. Oh, yes, that deleted scene also made me fell in love with this couple. It's my favourite of the whole movie. I wish I'd seen it before. Shame on who deleted it. It's such a wonderful scene…

Well, that's how I fell in love with this couple and started to ship them so hard. I love them and I love their story. It's one of the best love stories I've ever heard about.
