When Emmett asked me if I had fallen again I felt my heart flutter. And not because of the fact that Edward was right beside me. Sometimes it's a good thing he can't hear what I'm thinking. Because sometimes, I think it'd be easier if I just loved Emmett more than him.
I felt calmness enter my heart and slow the raging fluttering I still felt a little. I shot Jasper a grateful look and nodded to him with a weary smile. He was the only one that knew about my little secret. We had shared some things after he had tried to kill me last year.
I can't help think about Emmett, but then I realize, he's going to be my brother. And my sister's husband. I look at Edward who's face clearly shows his worry for my hand and his concern that I was in such deep thought.
"Are you okay? You aren't thinking about going back to Jacob's are you?"
I laugh and then grimace. "No, not at all."
Edward nods and then kisses my forehead and it all comes flooding back.
I love him because he loves me for everything. Clumsiness, plain features, average grades, and my weird ability to block him from entering my mind.
I smile and look up at him, a sparkling glint in my eyes and I know he can see it. The love.
