The bruises on Bella were definitely NOT hickeys. Edward even matched the bruises to his fingers demonstrating how the bruises came from his hands and fingers. Another reason was that Edward only lightly kisses Bella. This is because if he got caught up in kissing during sex...he could easily knick her mouth with his teeth, causing her to bleed (a great temptation) and also causing some of his venom to enter her system. If Edward had sucked on Bella's skin during sex, he would have been so caught up in the moment that he could have sucked so hard that he punctured her skin...causing her to bleed. I know that in Eclipse we learn that Edward has developed a tolerance for Bella's blood. But this is thrown out the window during sex. Edward fought with all his strength to be gentle during sex, but he still bruised her up pretty bad. If you read the book, Bella was literally black, blue, purple, green, yellow...marked up with bruises on her entire body except for her face. She said that one side of her face was darker...and that her lips were extremely swollen. But all Bella could recall of the previous night was that she had had a LOT of fun. Edward simply didn't want to damage Bella any more than what he had. Edward did promise that they'd have sex again after she had been changed. So, he didn't really over-react or was scared of sex. Bella DID convince Edward to have sex again, but this time he was more in control and didn't harm Bella at all. I think the reason he had bruised Bella so badly was because Edward was still a virgin and was experiencing sex for the first time...and he simply got carried away.I agree with you about Tobias. He's awesome. So is Divergent! I read the entire series and loved it. It get's an A+ from me. The first movie was good too.Why do you have sex in this movie a lot.
