I stood carefully and fixed my top then began walking to the kitchen to give Edward his son back. I got near the door and I could hear a conversation distinctly.
"Edward, I know you're upset, but you have to be reasonable."
"This is my child. There is no room for reasonable. What went on this morning is ridiculous. I don't ever want it to happen again." My heart sank. Was he talking about me nursing Charlie? I hoped I hadn't made him that upset. Esme had just stated he was upset.
"And what are you going to say to Bella?"
"I'm just going to tell her that this isn't working that I need…." I turned and left before I could hear any more. It seemed obvious to me what the conversation was about. It was the second time I'd overheard their conversation and that wasn't the kind of person I was. I went back to sit down on the couch. I looked down at Charlie, for the first time really able to appreciate how beautiful he was. His hair, what little there was of it, was dark. He had long, thick lashes that rested on his pink cheeks. His face was a lot thinner than Elizabeth's had been. Then again, he hadn't been eating well.
He had full red lips. The lower one was pulled into his mouth as he sucked on it.
"Bella?" I heard Edward's soft voice and looked up to see he was standing right in front of me. I gasped in shock. "I didn't mean to startle you." He had a look in his eyes I'd never seen before. It gave me butterflies in my stomach as well as made my heart beat faster. "Can we talk?"
