SM OWNS IT ALL.
I'm the first to get up to leave. I have to get Sophie to bed and Alice told me that she was spending the night with Jasper.
"You're leaving already?" Edward walks up behind me while I'm trying to gather my things.
"Yeah, I have to get this one." I look down at Sophie. "To bed."
"Ah you're stuck babysitting." He says grinning. "Those two can't keep their hands off each other." He jerks his chin toward Alice and Jasper who are…attacking each other on the couch. Eww get a room!
We look at each other again and start laughing.
The giant butterflies in my stomach sober me up. I clear my throat.
"I gotta go." I murmur and walk around him.
"Hey, Bella." Edward stops me. He runs his hand through his hair and tugs on it at the end. What is he so nervous about? "Do you think we can get together sometime…you know, to talk?" He buries his hands in his pocket.
It doesn't matter if I'm ready; I have to talk to him. There are things…he needs to know.
I ignore the pain in my chest like I have done for so long.
What the fuck happened to my plan of avoiding him and telling him nothing?
I was afraid that seeing him would change everything I've felt for him—all the anger mostly. Now I just want to tell him everything, even though he was such an asshole to me when he left and shattered my heart.
He didn't know about her.
None of us did for a while.
"Okay."
