Detailed Background: Canon, Isle Esme, B&E honeymoon. This was originally written as two separate pieces, both of them slightly fluffy. Then I jump-cut the two pieces, punched up the smut level, and posted it as one story. Then I took it down because of haters. Now I am going to re-release it as a dribbledrabblefic with short chapters. With very fast updates. Just in time for Breaking Dawn, Part I.

Author's Note: This is dedicated to my twifey onesweetbell, who has constantly helped me work through all my insecurities and fears as a fanfic writer, and who is a wonderful sounding board for my cockamamie and bizarre ideas. No one else would be so patient with me. Thank you, thank you. More than you can ever possibly know.
