Twenty-five adage inspired, one hundred word drabbles. What is an adage, you ask? It's a short but memorable saying expressing a general truth. I may not take these phrases at face value; but then again, maybe I will.

I found him shooting baskets in his driveway.

"Tyler." I tried not to sound menacing.

"What's up, man?"

"Bella's in the hospital, yet you're playing basketball?"

"Yeah, but just for observation. She's going to be okay," he shrugged.

"I feel very…protective of Bella."

"Yeah, I just didn't see the ice. No blood, no foul, right man?"

Really? He thought there was no harm in putting Bella in the hospital? I took a deep breath. "They do say 'to err is human, to forgive, divine.'"

"Exactly, man." He patted my shoulder.

"Unfortunately for you, I'm not divine. Nor am I human."

Pretty sure this is the most canon thing I've ever written. I'd like to think this would be Edward's fantasy in Midnight Sun, like when he considered killing the entire bio class. ;)

Thanks for reading! :)
