"I think that is everything." I said out loud to myself as I packed the last tank top in my suitcase.

"Everything but me." A smooth velvety voice said from the corner of my room as I jumped.

"Geez you surprised me." I said before saying, "You know why you are not going. You would be stuck inside all the time and I need some quality time with my mom." it was more than that too but I just couldn't bring myself to say anything to him about that.

"And I've told you I don't mind being inside as long as I am with you."Edward said.

"Well I do care. Please don't fight me on this Edward." I pleaded with him. I needed time and space. I also wanted time with my mom so spending the summer in Jacksonville provided the perfect excuse.

"I won't but only because I love you so much and I don't want to fight. You have to promise me you will be extremely careful while you are there and take care of yourself. I would go die if anything were to happen to you." he told me as he wrapped e in his embrace and kissed the top of my head.

"I'll do my best and I have the cell you insisted on getting me. I'll call you every night." I told him hoping to ease his mind.

"This goes against everything in my nature to let you go alone." He whispered more to himself than to me.

"Let me?!?" I stated my question loudly. It was things like this that was beginning to annoy me. "You don't let me do anything. I am my own person and I do what I want."

He then began trying to diffuse the situation as soon as he saw me getting worked up. "That isn't what I meant love and I'm sorry to have upset you."

I immediately began to calm down. The last thing I wanted to do the night before I left for the summer was fight with him. Instead I climbed up on my bed and patted the spot on the bed next to me as I lay down. He obliged and lay down while pulling me into the cool circle of his arms. He began humming my lullaby and as I drifted off to sleep I worried to myself how Jake was going to take it when I tell him I am leaving tomorrow for 2 ½ months.
