The word boyfriend had me chewing on the inside of my cheek with a familiar tension while I stirred. It wasn’t the right word, not at all. I needed something more expressive of eternal commitment… But words like destiny and fate sounded hokey when you used them in casual conversation.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.6
It worked — your cooking skills have me soft as a marshmallow.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.9
I wrenched the door out of my way — ridiculously eager — and there he was, my personal miracle.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.17
Staring into his eyes always made me feel extraordinary — sort of like my bones were turning spongy. I was also a little lightheaded, but that could have been because I’d forgotten to keep breathing. Again.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.17
His touch brought with it the strangest sense of relief — as if I’d been in pain and that pain had suddenly ceased.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.17
The idea of being in danger from even the most deadly of humans while I was with Alice or Edward was downright hilarious.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.21
I want to be a monster, too.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.25
It’s a bit late for me to worry about who I fall in love with. But even without the warning, I seem to have managed fairly well.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 1, p.29
If I had my way, I would spend the majority of my time kissing Edward.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.43
I’d say I’m sorry, but I’m not.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.44
You know how I am with tools. No pain was inflicted intentionally.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.47
Please tell me you are not trying to have a sex talk with me, Charlie.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.58
I really wish you were not forcing me to say this out loud, Dad. Really. But… I am a… virgin, and I have no immediate plans to change that status.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 2, p.59
Being apart… It didn’t work out so well for either of us.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.108
I love him. Not because he’s beautiful or because he’s rich! I’d much rather he weren’t either one. It would even out the gap between us just a little bit — because he’d still be the most loving and unselfish and brilliant and decent person I’ve ever met. Of course I love him. How hard is that to understand?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.110
What is a valid reason for someone to love someone else? Since apparently I’m doing it wrong.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.110
You know, Jacob, you’re awfully self-righteous — considering that you’re a werewolf and all.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 4, p.111
Most people fall in and out of love many times in their lives. It was just that I’d seen Sam with Emily, and I couldn’t imagine him with someone else. The way he looked at her… well, it reminded me of a look I’d seen sometimes in Edward’s eyes — when he was looking at me.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.117
Am I the only one who has to get old? I get older every stinking day! Damn it! What kind of world is this? Where’s the justice?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 5, p.119
You’re kidnapping me, aren’t you?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 6, p.145
Yes, because a vampire slumber party is the pinnacle of safety conscious behavior.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 6, p.146
You are in trouble. Enormous trouble. Angry grizzly bears are going to look tame next to what is waiting for you at home.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 6, p.149
Porsches as bribes and king-sized beds in houses where nobody slept — it was beyond irritating.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 6, p.151
Why don’t you just lock me in the basement, and forget the sugar coating?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 7, p.169
There was no friction in the space between us. The stillness was peaceful — not like the calm before the tempest, but like a clear night untouched by even the dream of a storm.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.185
I like danger.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.188
I’m going to spontaneously combust one of these days — and you’ll have no one but yourself to blame.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.188
I don’t mind if you want to give me the wrong impression again.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.188
You can hold me hostage any time you want.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.189
If you’re going to have a lapse in control, I can think of a better place for it.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.192
Let me be in charge of responsibility for a few minutes… or hours.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 8, p.192
They’ll get so bored, they’ll have to kill me themselves, just for something to do.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 9, p.207
He sang me to sleep again and — aware even in unconsciousness that he was there — I slept free of nightmares.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 9, p.208
You really do want to keep me, no matter how I turn out?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 12, p.273
I’m not that girl, Edward. The one who gets married right out of high school like some small-town hick who got knocked up by her boyfriend!
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 12, p.275
Edward, there’s no point to forever without you. I wouldn’t want one day without you.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 12, p.276
He was so beautiful that it made it hard sometimes to think about anything else, hard to concentrate on Phil’s troubles or Renée’s apologies or hostile vampire armies. I was only human.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 14, p.315
I hate being babysat.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 14, p.316
There was just something about him being the one to make the choice — to want to keep me enough that he wouldn’t just allow me to be changed, he would act to keep me. It was childish, but I liked the idea that his lips would be the last good thing I would feel. Even more embarrassingly, something I would never say aloud, I wanted his venom to poison my system. It would make me belong to him in a tangible, quantifiable way.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 14, p.324
I can’t wait to see what Edward does to you! I hope he snaps your neck, you pushy, obnoxious, moronic DOG!
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.332
I’ll give you passionate. Murder, the ultimate crime of passion.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.332
If I think about you tonight, it will be because I’m having a nightmare.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.333
I don’t want to be happy with anyone but him.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.333
That was not kissing back, that was trying to get you the hell off of me, you idiot.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.334
I punched a werewolf in the face.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.342
I guess I could throw in a few extra homicides, if it makes Jasper happy. Why not?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.343
Was there a human experience I was not willing to give up?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 15, p.345
Stupid, thieving, annoying vampire!
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 16, p.347
In case my right hook was too subtle for you, let me translate: that was me uninviting you.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 17, p.372
You’re in every thought I have.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 19, p.413
You’re more important than everyone else. And you’ve given me you. That’s already more than I deserve, and anything else you give me just throws us more out of balance.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 19, p.413
Okay, look, Edward. Here’s the thing… I’ve already gone crazy once. I know what my limits are. And I can’t stand it if you leave me again.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 19, p.419
I leaned into him, ducking my head under his arm and cuddling into his side. It probably felt similar to snuggling with Michelangelo’s David, except that this perfect marble creature wrapped his arms around me to pull me closer.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.439
I didn’t have the faintest idea how to be seductive. I would just have to settle for flushed and self-conscious.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.442
I doubted if awkward, self-conscious, and inept added up to desirable in anyone’s book.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.445
I already know how strong you are. You didn’t have to break the furniture.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.447
There isn’t much that’s traditional about you and me.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.451
It’s not like you didn’t know you were going to win in the end. You always win.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.452
You make me feel like a villain in a melodrama — twirling my mustache while I try to steal some poor girl’s virtue.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.452
That’s it, isn’t it? You’re trying to protect your virtue!
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.453
Vampire rules aren’t enough for you? You want to worry about the human ones too?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.453
You can’t make me go somewhere you won’t be. That’s my definition of hell. Anyway, I have an easy solution to all this: let’s never die, all right?
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.455
Show me the damn ring, Edward.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.457
There were many things I wanted to say, some of them not nice at all, and others more disgustingly gooey and romantic than he probably dreamed I was capable of.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 20, p.460
I never thought I’d see the day where I’d be willing to take a bet against you, Alice, but it has arrived.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 21, p.467
You’ve always seemed more like a dream than reality.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 23, p.513
I had to never hurt him again. That would be my mission in life. Never again would I be the reason for this look to come into his eyes.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 23, p.521
What happened to fighting back? Don’t start with the noble self-sacrifice now! Fight!
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 24, p.535
I don’t care that it’s cold here. I don’t care that I stink like a dog right now. Make me forget how awful I am. Make me forget him. Make me forget my own name. Fight back!
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 24, p.535
You said I could have any part of you I wanted. I want this part. I want every part.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 24, p.535
First, because you are bizarrely moral for a vampire.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 24, p.536
Just you wait till I’m a vampire! I’m not going to be sitting on the sidelines next time.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 25, p.559
A united front, as Edward had said, with me at the heart, in the safest place.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 25, p.571
Edward, I know who I can’t live without.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 27, p.610
You may be brave enough or strong enough to live without me, if that’s what’s best. But I could never be that self-sacrificing. I have to be with you. It’s the only way I can live.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 27, p.610
I’ve chosen my life — now I want to start living it.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 27, p.616
At least my mom and dad and my friends will know the best part of my choice, the most I’m allowed to tell them. They’ll know I chose you, and they’ll know we’re together. They’ll know I’m happy, wherever I am. I think that’s the best I can do for them.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 27, p.616
It’s a good thing you’re bulletproof. I’m going to need that ring. It’s time to tell Charlie.
Bella Swan, Eclipse, Chapter 27, p.620
Sorry its so short! Comment and rate PLEASE!!!
I felt bad for leaving without one word to Nathen, but I knew I couldn't leave without one word so I said;
Look, I'm sorry I made you mad, but... I couldn't even finish my sentence.
No, I shouldn't have gotten so mad it was stupid of me anyways to know if you cared where I lived. Nathen said.
Its ok. I said with a yawn.
I think someone needs to go to bed. Nathen said with his oh so perfect grin that I loved.
Nathen carried me up to my room, like he usually did. I fell asleep against his warm chest. It was great to know that me and Nathen had made up. I didn't like to be mad at anyone. It is hard sometimes for me to forgive people but its usually not that long till I do forgive them.
I told Nathen goodnight and that I loved him and he said the same back to me.
