Bella was blabbering and grinning adoringly at the memories of her niece and nephew.

She was excited, her cheeks were flushed pink underneath lightly freckled skin and warm chocolate eyes were flared with mirth.

Edward tracked the movement of her tongue as she swept it across her plump bottom lip until it halted midway, Bella blinked at him with a quick sweep of those long eyelashes.

"What is it?" she wondered aloud, her brows creased.

Edward flicked his gaze upwards, a little above that mesmerizing mouth.

"Nothing… um… what?" he mumbled dumbly, shaking his head to try to clear it.
