This chapter and the next few are Bella pov


BPOV:

I know he's awake.

He's been faking it for the last twenty minutes and it's really starting to annoy me.

Does he regret what happened?

Is he trying to figure out a way to get out of this?

My mind is running a mile a minute and all I want to do is reach out and strangle him.

But I don't.

Instead I gently run my fingers down his cheek, gently trying to wake him.

He fights it that much is obvious.

Deciding that I've had enough I call out to him.

"Edward, I know you're awake."
