Beth Sabatino
A House of Cards, Ch. 29-31

Chapter 29
-----------
The great epiphanies in our lives often are a domino effect of realization. Now that Edward has realized that he loves Jasper, he is seeing that he has loved him much longer then he realized. He is seeing the jealousy he felt in the past for what it was, not desperation to be in the game, but because the love of his life was showing affection to another.

I love that Edward is almost going through that teenage first love experience. Jerking off alone to the thoughts of the object of your affection. Worried whether they will love you too. Wondering if they will like the idea that you desire them.

Chapter 30
-----------
Edward's transition has been amazing, and it really culminated in this chapter. Instead of giving into Jasper's wishes as he has done in the past, despite his reservations, he gave him love instead.

Their love making scene was absolutely transcendent, and everything it should be. I love that you had Jasper straddling a sitting Edward. You made them physically equal, instead of one being in a submissive position to the other. Eye to eye. Heart to heart. Healing, loving, beginning.

Chapter 31
-----------
I am dead. Trish writing fluff. Paddles!! (the crash cart variety, not the ones on your top shelf, bb)

This was so beautiful. The sincere unfolding of their feelings and their love. I love that you had Bella tell Jasper in the emergency squad to give his love with Edward a chance, and that she was sorry she wouldn't be there to see it. ::tear::

Then their first date! I love the playfulness of Jasper mixed with Edwards insecurity that was really just Jasper being thoughtful of Edward. In the end, Edward is stepping out of his past comfort zone, because he is secure in love.

I need a snuggle now.
