Never Look Back Chp.16 Teaser





Well, here I am once again wondering if there's any of you guys here reading this. Oh well, though. I'm posting this for those who DO.

(You're very brave souls, btw.)

Ps. how about these Breaking Dawn stills?!?! I can't WAIT for November.

I don't have as much to tell, but I DO know these posts are getting closer and closer together in length, and maybe that's just becuase NEVER LOOK BACK is slowly but surely coming to a close.

Now, the plan is that I'm going to write a little bit every evening that I can...and hopefully have it completely done by the time I go back to school on August 30.

I know what you're thinking, that that is only a few weeks away. :( Well, it's a challenge I'm going to try to accept. :D

After that the chapters will be posted on a weekly basis (roughly) :D.

So here is an excerpt to Chapter 16 "Love at Its Finest" (unnofficial title).

Enjoy:


Mike was upstairs in the shower, and as soon as he smelled the food he made his way down the stairs.

“Hey,” I said, as cheerfully as possible.

“Hey,” he murmured, sitting down at the table immediately.

I brought over the steak and potatoes, setting them down in front of him before pouring us both glasses of water.

He began shoveling in the food immediately, without even looking up at me.

Do it, Bella! I shouted at myself. Quit being such a pussy and do it!

“Uh, Mike—“ I started, but the chime of his cell interrupted us.

He pulled it out of his pocket, took one look at the caller ID, and then put it back into his pocket.

Strange. He usually always answered.

“Unknown number?” I questioned, trying to talk about anything at all. I hadn’t even touched my food yet. If I tried I knew I’d puke.

“Uh, yeah…” he murmured, studying his plate.

I nodded to myself, cursing Mike to the very bottom of his existence.

“Where’s your father?” He asked, as though he suddenly remembered Charlie was usually here.

“I asked him to leave…” this is a start.

“Why?”

Just then the phone chimed again, and with obvious discomfort and took it out of his pocket and answered with annoyance and uneasiness. He seemed to be trying to keep something from me…


-------------------------

For the rest make sure you check out fanfiction.net around/about next wednesday. I'll most likely post it around then!!!

Thank you for reading my little dribble, and I hope you're excited for chapter 16!!

Until next time,

Never Look Back Teaser




So, I may be a shitty blogger, but I did intend to have this blog for a reason. And that was...

To give you information/updates and to post some teaserssss!

So, as the title preludes... here is a small teaser from chapter 15 "Finally Home.":

Carlisle and I both began laughing at the same time, and I handed him the charts.
“You seem to be in rare spirits today, son.” Carlisle gave me a look out of the corner of his eye as he studied the chart. I knew that look. He was trying to get an answer out of me.
“I’m alright.” I shrugged, sitting down across from him.
“Hmm,” he sighed, but I knew he wasn’t finished. “Yes, it does seem some of these charts have been mixed up. I’ll go to the nurses station after lunch.”
“Alright,” I got up to leave.
“Edward,” Carlisle let out a breath, disappointed. “Tell me you didn’t… that you and Bella didn’t…”
I furrowed my brow, confused. “Didn’t what?”
Carlisle rubbed his eyes behind his glasses. “Tell me you and Bella didn’t have…sexual relations last night.”
I choked a little on the air, coughing. “What the f***, dad?”
“Now, now. Alice told your mother she came over yesterday…and by the look on your face…” he seemed awkward.
“I didn’t f*** Bella yesterday, dad,” I said blankly. “I told her the truth.”
His head snapped up, surprised. “You did?”
I nodded my head, exasperated. “Do you honestly think I’d let that happen so soon? So that she can just be pissed at me for that and leave again? I don’t f****** think so—“
“Dr. Cullen?” A voice from behind me screeched.
Carlisle and I both turned to see one of the nurses, face red and flustered.
“A woman just came into the E.R, we need you to take a look.”
Carlisle sighed, and I immediately stood. “I’ll do it, dad. You just sit this one out.”
I followed the woman into the Emergency Room, looking around for a woman who apparently needed the attention of a doctor. Generally Forks General didn’t get too many E.R. patients, what with the town being so small.
My eyes automatically landed on a brown head of hair, and deep chocolate eyes filled with tears.
My heart skipped a beat and I flew to her side.
“Bella?!”

--------------------

:D Hope you're excited for chapter 15

I certainly am.

Until next time,

Summer, Taylor Swift, and Stories






I'll just go one at a time here. :D

<3 Summer/Stories <3
Fortunately, with this three month break from school I've had some head clearing time. Not only have I attended concerts (I'll get back to that) and actually got a hole-in-one in putt putt golf (this is absolutely epic for someone as uncoordinated as myself. haha). I've also gone and seen some fantastic movies--a few of which being the third Transformers (Epic) and the final Harry Potter. (which made me cry)

I've also had time to work on my story "Never Look Back" and just finally got around to posting the "explanation chapter" just now. (If you read that story you'll know what I'm talking about.) I was hoping to finish it this summer, but I'm not 100% sure how that will work out. I'll try though!!!! :D


<3 Taylor Swift <3
I was fortunate enough to have bought tickets back at the beginning of the year to go to the Pittsburgh, PA stop in Taylor Swift's Speak Now 2011 tour on June 18, 2011. Let me begin by saying this young lady literally brought me to tears several times during her concert (and I want to be her best friend now) but she's also incredibly talented yet humble. To me, those are wonderful, beautiful, fantastic traits to have.

She played for two whole hours (jumping around and running the whole time.) I've never been to any concert quite like hers. Every song was like a movie scene.

If you EVER, EVER get the chance to see this girl--take it. You won't-CAN'T- be dissapointed.

I know I haven't blogged since, like, April. :(

But, I'm doubtful any of you are surprised. lol.

While I'm at it, I might as well give you a few FANFIC reccomendations.

Oh, and don't forget about Robsten at ComicCon tomorrow for BD. :D

Until Next Time...

Water For Elephants


Well, since my computer is dumb and it just kicked me out of this blogger thingy (TWICE), my entire (probably close to an 8 page report) post was erased.


FML.


Buttt, here's the gist of it:



Went and saw Robert Pattinson's "Water For Elephants" this weekend and I was absolutely blown away by the magical feel and wonderful acting in this movie. Critics can say what they want, but our boy held his own next to Reese and Christoph. It is a definite MUST-SEE!!! Go support our Robby!



Not to mention, that cute-ass picture of Robsten after the WFE premiere. Does anyone else think it's absolutely adorable Kristen came out to support her man??!! <3



Now, about my stories, "Never Look Back" is lacking a little in the review department so I'm going to wait a little while until I get a few more reviews to post chapter 11 (which I haven't even started! YIKES!)



But, it seems life keeps getting in the way. With two projects due directly after Easter break I really have no time to catch up on my writing during this time off. It sucks, BAD, but that's just the way the cookie crumbles.



To those of you who still read my stories, thank you. You are absolute saints. :D



Happy Easter to everyone and I'll talk to you next time.

Never Look Back Chapter 5



Well, I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season! It's been quite a while since my last post, but I'm not going to mention that considering I'm starting to sound like a broken record. haha


Never Look Back Chapter 5 is up and posted on Fanfiction, as well as the R/K one-shot "Dive For Dreams" that used to be only exclusive to Quizilla.


While I'm here I might as well tell you what's been going on since I've blogged last. I've been very busy with schoolwork lately, as I had anticipated, so Never Look Back was on a slight hold for a little while there. It may continue to have breaks in between, I haven't had a chance to really write anymore of it lately. I WILL finish this story though, that I can promise.


On a lighter note, I've watched some movies lately that I highly recommend you put on your "to watch" list. First, "Salt" with Angelina Jolie. I LOVE that movie. Easy A was hysterical, Despicable Me is probably the cutest kids movie ever, and The Social Network is extremely interesting--especially if you have a facebook account.


My friend Nichole also now has an account on FF where she's posting her story "Heroes Never Die" I highly suggest you read it. It's very good. Her name is DaniellaLutz, and she's also on quizilla.


Also, HOW ABOUT THAT BREAKING DAWN, PIC, HUH??? WOW. That movie's gonna be H.O.T!


Well, that's it for now, I suppose. Enjoy Never Look Back, guys.


Talk to you later.

Merry Christmas All!!!



Alright, so it's my very first day of Christmas break and I'm already wondering what i'm going to do with the next few weeks...


As you can probably tell by this, I have some news to share will all of you.


The third and fourth chapters of "Never Look Back" have been posted on fanfiction for those of you interested. Which, I hope you are. It's really starting to flow.


Also, I finally got my copy of "Last Sacrifice" by Richelle Mead and it was a must-read for all of you Vampire Academy fans. I REALLY loved it. If you haven't read that series yes, it is AMAZING! You're missing out, trust me.


This picture, I thought, was appropriate for this time of year and also friggin adorable (look at Kristen's hand over Rob's..squueee!) It was from 2009 I believe. I like to call it "Pattinson Family 2009" :D


I'd also like to say that there may be a little break between chapter 4 and 5 of Never Look Back. I'm switching a few classes--to harder ones, no less, and i'm going to have to concentrate very hard if I want to keep caught up. No worries, though, I'll probably need to vent and end up writing more anyways. haha


I hope you all have an amazing and safe holiday season filled with loved ones! (I think we all know our little Robsten will! haha)


Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year,

RachaelP

Never Look Back Chapter 2




Thought i'd inform y'all that chapter two of Never Look Back is up (just a little over a week later than chapter 1, i might add) I'm very proud if you can't tell. :D





It's on fanfiction as I haven't posted anything on Quizilla yet. (i'm waiting for the story to pick up a little momentum)






I'm on Thanksgiving break at the moment and am excited as heck b/c a teaser for Richelle Mead's "Last Sacrifice" is coming out tomorrow. If you haven't read the Vampire Academy series I suggest you do so. They're very good.






Happy late Thanksgiving, also. Hope you all got so stuffed with great food that you passed out on the couch (or, if you're like me, you PRETENDED to pass out to get away from overbearing family members. hhehehe.) Oh, how I love the holidays. :D






Also, the image above is an official picture from Breaking Dawn tweeted by the director and the other is just Robsten being adorable again.






If any of you have DeviantArt profiles, I just got one today so add me as a friend! I'm GarnetCitrine.






Well, that's all for now, folks.






I'll hopefully be updating again very soon.




Love,




Rachael
