Best Twist on a Canon Quote
- From Midnight Desire, Chapter 11, by Twilightzoner:
As I drove home, I became certain of three things. I wanted Bella Swan more than my next breath. To some degree, and I didn’t know how much, Bella Swan wanted me. And when I got home, I was going to beat off until I passed out. - WINNER-- From Creature of Habit, Chapter 10, by Angel:
“Say it” I demanded, “Out loud.”
Isabella spun around and looked me in the eye. The wrong emotion was written across her face. Instead of fear she looked…supportive? “You’re gay,” She said in a clear strong voice. - From Abbracciare il Cantante, Chapter 46, by Bratty-vamp:
“What is going on?” Bella asked near my ear. I set her back on her feet and explained.
“Emmett outbid Alice for Rosalie’s gift on Ebay. She just figured it out.”
“Shit,” Bella said quietly. “Remind me never to bid against Alice!” - From Art After 5, Chapter 22, by sleepyvalentina:
Spoken by Bella: "I was going to hell, and I knew it. But since it was inevitable, I decided I might as well do it thoroughly." - From A Madman's Mercy, Chapter 5, by Amethyst Jackson, Jacyevans:
"Promise me," he begged, stepping even closer, close enough that our bodies brushed against one another. "Promise me you won't leave me."
"I promise," I said, trapped by the force of his eyes. "I won't leave, not until you ask me to."
