Kristen Stewart has been spotted on several occasions spending quality time with "Twilight" co-star Taylor Lautner while her boyfriend Robert Pattinson is away in Australia.

With the whole "Twilight" drama over, fans are still reluctant to give up their connection with the saga. And star Stewart seems to sharing the same thought. The actress has been spotted on several occasions recently trying to reconnect with "Twilight" co-star Lautner while her boyfriend Pattinson is away in Australia shooting for his new film.

"It's been so long since we've been in [L.A.] at the same time. I've been seeing a lot of that young lout," Stewart told Entertainment Weekly.

However, according to RadarOnline.com, that's not the only reason why Stewart is looking to reconnect with Lautner. Apparently her ulterior motive is to draw out more information about Pattinson.

"Kristen has been spending a lot of time with Taylor of late because she's been using him as a sounding board for her relationship with Robert," a source revealed to RadarOnline.com. "She thinks that he may have some insight in how she should proceed with Robert - and where their relationship is going."

Stewart and Pattinson are reportedly having troubles in their relationship and some tabloids have even reported that the duo has already called off the relationship, but are waiting for the release of the "Breaking Dawn Part 2" DVD to announce the split. According to reports, Stewart is still trying to keep their relationship alive and has even been spotted hanging out with Pattinson's friends.

Stewart recently told Entertainment Weekly that she felt she was really getting married to Pattinson during the marriage scene in the "Twilight" movie.

"It's this feeling I had that it was like a real wedding. I have these memories of it that are not in keeping with a movie set. It feels like my memories," said the actress. "You have room in your mind for character, and then there's room for yourself. That memory is definitely more mine."
