    Summary

    It wasn't fair. Charlie didn't ask to be one of them. Even his daughter marrying into a family of vampires couldn't have prepared him for the unpleasantness of monster-hood. After a year away, he finally returns to Forks. Though he isn't quite ready to face Bella, he finds comfort elsewhere...

    //In which I explore my own heartbreak for Charlie, the sanest in the series.

    Summary

    You'd think that with almost 400 years of experience and the help of his daughter who can literally see the future Carlisle would be able to woo Charlie Swan with ease. Tragically, this is not the case. Oh well, the course of true love never did run smooth; I'm sure they'll get there in the end.

    Summary

    Charlie Swan is, like his daughter, difficult to read. He is quiet, yet fiercely protective of those he considers to be his family. He tries desperately to be a good father to Bella despite his misgivings and, admittedly, the Cullen family’s interference. He still hasn’t gotten over his ex-wife even though it’s been a decade since their divorce. Carlisle thinks he may be one of the best men he’s ever known.

    Summary

    Charlie Swan keeps his head down in Forks—small Omega, quiet shifts, a scent like rain on cedar, and a number he no longer answers. Billy Black has been a solid gravity at his side for years: pine, salt, patience that frays. Carlisle Cullen is something else entirely. Cold manners. Older eyes. A pull Charlie feels before he has a name for it.

    What starts as careful distance turns into scent in doorways, almost-touches, and the kind of tension that doesn’t stay polite. Billy already knows what Carlisle is. Carlisle already knows Billy knows. Charlie is the one still learning what he’s allowed to want.

    Summary

    100% Charlie Swan's point of view... possibly a 50/50 chance of me adding chapters with Carlisle's point of view... I dunno.

    Charlie Swan's only daughter, now a sprightly seventeen-year-old finally comes home to Forks, Washington after many years of visiting for only a few months. Charlies navigates through the challenges of a clumsily moody teenage girl and her boy troubles, trying to find ways to show his emotions better and grow closer to his daughter.
    At the same time, one of Charlie's close friends, Billy Black shows hatred for the newest family to move into Forks, the Cullens. Charlie feels as if Billy isn't telling him something, and for the two years leading up to Bella coming home, Billy and Charlie are at odds with one another. Now that Bella is home, Charlie feels the need to lean on Billy and gain guidance from Billy's experience of raising two teenage girls and a now teenage son.
    Bella's clumsy accidents bring trouble, and with every or so accident, the Cullen seem to be close around. Charlie finds himself drawn towards Carlisle Cullen's charms, conflicted by Carlisle's attempts at "getting closer" and the fact that he has a wife and five adopted children.
    Charlie will do anything for Bella.
