Chapter Ten

You got a tattoo when we were still together?

Yeah it was meant as a surprise.

That is kind of hot. What did you get?

I was surprised at his reaction as I was so sure when I got the tattoo that he would be angry with me. But I couldn't tell him what it was –at least not yet. Luckily for me the bell rung, so I didn't have to explain why I couldn't tell him about the tattoo. I scrunched up the note as I reached for my bag and walked out of the class.

I got halfway down the corridor before I felt him grab my arm as he stopped my progress to my next class. "Edward, please…" I said without turning to look at him.

"Look at me Bella," he commanded; I slowly turned to face him. As I looked at him I saw his expression was torn – torn between overwhelming curiosity and worry at my reluctance to reveal the identity of my tattoo. "Why won't you tell me?"

"Not here," I said, if we were going to have this conversation then we were going to have it in private. I turned and continued my journey down the corridor, knowing that he would be following me. We had five to ten minutes before we would be late for our lesson and the corridor was still full of lingering students as I reached the cleaning cupboard. Silently I opened the door and stepped inside turning on the light as he stepped inside the door and shut the door.

"I didn't want to tell you because I'm still scared, Edward. I've had to live with the fact that you walked away from me for 80 years and now your hear telling me that all I thought I knew about us was wrong, and I still don't know what to trust. I can't rely on my instincts because I have none when it comes to you I get overwhelmed by my feelings for you – just like I always have. The tattoo has been a constant reminder of that."

Edward opened his mouth to say something but I cut him off, "Don't say anything Edward, I just need to get this over with." As a reply he just stood opposite me patiently waiting for my explanation.

"I'd been thinking about it for ages, I wanted a something that would last forever, just like we would…or so I thought we would. For a long time I had dreamed of you turning me and us being together forever, so I wanted something to represent that and what better than a tattoo? It was supposed to be for you as much as it was for me. I almost chickened out because I didn't know how you would have reacted – a useless fear as it turned out that you never saw it. I almost got it removed when I became angry at you but I decided to keep it – to remind me."

"Edward, are you sure you want to know what it is? Because I don't want you to freak out and leave again."

"Bella, I'm not going anywhere - tell me."

Taking an unnecessary breath, I reached to where my shorts rested on my hips. "Why don't I just show you?" I said as I pulled the waistband down a tiny bit to reveal my tattoo. I closed my eyes as his gaze moved from my face downwards. I didn't want to see his reaction. But even with my eyes shut I knew what he saw the word 'Edward' written in script.

Suddenly my back hit the wall behind me and my eyes opened wide in shock as Edward crushed his lips against me, in a kiss that would have killed me if I was still human…
