Losing It by JandMsmommy 

Summary: 

Edward is losing it... in more ways than one. A story about two people who should never have gotten involved.

Status: Completed

Rated: M 


This fic is brought to you by the author of fanfic hits Bedroom Confessions and Seven Day Weekend. Andy is so creative and brings us stories that you don't typically see. Where you think it's a cut and paste kind of story, once you read, you'll find out quickly that she brings you something completely unexpected. 

Losing It, inspired by the British indie film by the same name, follows teenage Edward and his week adventure with an older, engaged Bella. 

Now don't let this deter you from reading, but there is an age difference between the two and technically against the law...but this is fic and I've always enjoyed a good, naughty, forbidden love story. 

Sixteen year old Edward begins working at a pool as the towel boy, and it's immediately apparent that all the old ladies want him, but he only has his eye on a slightly older-than-he Bella that trains him and shows him the ropes. She captures his interest and doesn't let go. They know it's wrong, but they're drawn to each other and can't deny the attraction, though they will try. 

It's short and complicated. Andy (JandMsmommy) does an awesome job of grabbing onto their emotions and writing them in a way that makes us feel the characters sufferings and longings and wish for more. I encourage everyone with a few moments free time to please read and review this ficlet. It's awesome and it does have a happily ever after. 

See what other reviewers have had to say about this story: 


"Well that was a delightfully pleasant ending from what I thought was going to happen! Thank you for sharing your story, I enjoyed it! :)"

"Omg I fucking hardcore loved this short and simple story of a love that almost wasn't! Perfect ending. What was the movie called? Same as your title?"

"It's true...I have mixed feelings about them...I wish so hard to be able to have a Bella 

POV, so I can understand her thinking..."
