Stephenie Meyer owns Twilight, but my words are my own.

37.


Edward continues speaking, but he's become distant, not meeting my eyes—sort of lost.

"The more I wrote, the more I thrived on the positive feedback. Being socially awkward, I didn't believe fans' remarks, but then I felt like an actor or athlete or even a rock star. Now attention-addicted, I needed people's opinions more than sleep, or family, or even my job—the one I used to live for."

He looks so crushed and so ashamed; I just have to intervene. Getting up, I move to him and sit crossed-legged at his feet.

"Edward, I'm here. Please, need me."
