I know what you are
A/N quick one shot. This scene just could've been better. Well, in my mind at least
I glance at Edward, the sun causing him to sparkle, in the way I never will get used to. I cautiously open my mouth, ready to ask the question that has been plaguing me for months.
"Edward?" he looks at me, his golden eyes distracted. I continue. I won't back down now. "how old are you?"
This seems to draw his attention. " seventeen"
he replies, drawing out the word.
" and just how long have you been seventeen?" I ask. He looks it, but when he speaks... When he speaks he isn't from this era at all.
He looks at me strangely, before reluctantly replying " quite a while, actually" I gasp. I should've known.
" I know what you are" I say, hurling the words at him. And I thought he loved me! I trusted him!
" Say it" he whispers in my ear " out loud" he seems almost excited, and my resolution wavers. Surely...
" a pedophile" I spit, slapping him soundly across the face
