Chapter 10

AN: Hi everyone! I'm so sorry for the really late post. I didn't mean to keep you guys waiting. But I had a bad case of writers block. So after many tries I finally nail it. Or I hope I did anyway.

So lets have a small review before we continue forward. In the last chapter it will appear that Bella has come to a decision toward Edward. What effect will this have? Will Edward finally allow Bella to be there for him? Or will he continue to fight against her helping hand and comfort? Most importantly will Bella give up on him? So many question….but maybe the chapter will answer some of the them for us.

Please Enjoy

Reviews are always welcome

-Edward-

He sat on the floor with his head in between his hands trying very hard to block his memories. He just couldn't get them to leave him alone. He breathe out in frustration before slowly getting up. He walked toward the window and looked out. The sunlight was bright allowing for the world to capture it beads of rays making the world appear smooth and glossy. He lean forward before pressing his forehead against the glass as he closed his eyes. He wanted so much to know of a way to shut down his mind. Was it possible to learn how not to think? It would make it easier on him if he knew how to stop his mind from pounding against his skull. He ran his fingers through his hair wildly as if that would help the pain in his head. He bit his lip as hard as he could before pushing himself away from the window. He walked to his bed and sat on it heavily. He stretched his body tiredly before scooting to the wall and pressing his back against it. He turn his head toward the window and looked at the endless blue sky. He began to drift slowly into that calming abyss of the clouds and sunlight. He let out a small yawn just as his eyes began to droop. It been 3 days since he last slept, maybe he could escape his memories in a silent dreamless nap. That was counting on if he could have a dreamless sleep.

Just then a loud noise fill the house. His eyes sprang open and looked around him. The shrill ring of the door bell rang out again. He had every intention to ignore it but yet again the minute his father and sister left no one stop by. He narrow his eyes but as the door bell rang out again. He heaved his body up and walk out of the room. He walk down the stairs and walk toward the door. He threw the door open and as the sunlight filter into the dim living room. He had every intention on telling the person to get lost.

His emerald eyes look at the person that stood outside his house. He blink in surprise as a small shy smile appear on the person face. Delicate hands grip tighter on the dish that they held. He took a step back looking how the sunlight caught the small strand of her long lush brown hair making small reddish tints appear. How the chocolate brown eyes became a little lighter and softer. He swallow as the person name left his lips in a breathless whisper.

"Bella"

-Bella-

"Bella"

Her name left his lips in a breathless whisper. His wide emerald eyes look at her as she peek up at him. As their eyes lock, she could see the wariness that linger within his eyes. She bit her lip gently before saying softly

"Hi Edward"

He blink at her in confusion before saying

"What are you doing here?"

"I was worry about you, since last night…"

"I'm fine…I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable. It won't happen again"

She look at him and grip the dish in her hands tighter. She look at him with soft eyes before saying.

"You didn't make feel uncomfortable at all. I just…was worry since you seem to be somewhere else"

He nod his head at her but didn't say anything else to her. She stood in front of him watching how his body lean against the door. How his eyes fell to the ground and stay there. A tense air was starting to form around them so she smile softly before holding out the plain white dish and said.

"Oh, I made you a small treat. I hope you like blondies"

His eyes snap up as he look at her and said

"Blondies?"

"They something like brownies but their not made out of chocolate. I mean they do have chocolate chip in them, but they have more of butterscotch taste"

"I know what they are. My mot…"

He stop himself mid way through his sentence as she look at him. He tentatively took the dish from her hands. She smile at him warmly as he stood stiffly at the door and said.

"Um…thank you"

"Your welcome"

He force a smile on his pale beautiful face. She could tell that he was starting to feel uncomfortable. She bit her lip and said lowly

"I hope you enjoy them. And I'm glad to see that you're feeling better"

She reach out and touch his arm. As their body came to contact a small electric current course itself along her skin. She gasp and pull away and look at him. Edward was just staring at the container. She bit her lip before continuing.

"Well I better get home, if you need anything…don't hesitate to ask"

"Thank you"

She smile again and turn on her heels to walk away from him. When suddenly in that soft velvet voice, Edward call out.

"Bella"

She turn quickly and her chocolate brown turn to meet his emerald.

-Edward-

He had felt the small hit of the electric current that surge through him when she touch his arm. But he ignore it thinking that it was nothing. As she turn on her heels to walk away from him, he didn't know what possessed him to call out her name.

As her chocolate brown eyes lock with his. Making his cold body feel a calm warm feeling. That soft smile on her angelic face that just made the warm feeling fill his body more. He wasn't use to feeling this way, and a part of him scowl at him for feeling something that he shouldn't feel. He had no right to warm feeling, or have someone worry about him. He wasn't worth it. As those thoughts overtook his mind that suddenly began to flash at him angrily. He look down quickly and said in a soft low voice.

"I may not be worth the worry you have for me. But I thank you for everything"

As he finish his sentence, did he look up at her. He saw a wide smile fill her face. What appear to be a blush filter into her pale cheeks. Then she drop her eyes to the ground, before peek at him from under her lashes. She shook her head at him and said.

"Your more than worth it, Edward"
