A/N: January 1st, late night. Text message conversation with Bella (in italics) and Edward (plain text)
Thank you for coming over and talking with me. Thank you for answering my questions.
Thank you Bella. I don't know how you can be so calm.
Thank you for my wonderful gifts, you are so kind.
I am saving the letter to read after I tell Carlisle and Esme what happened.
I think I shall need a distraction then.
When do they get back?
Early evening tomorrow.
What do you think will happen?
I think they will make me move even though I don't want to.
That's what I'm most worried about.
You don't think they'll listen to you?
Everything I do always goes wrong, I don't see how this can possibly work out.
Have a little faith Edward, it's going to be ok.
I'm a monster Bella. I'm cursed and damned, that isn't ok.
You shouldn't want anything to do with me.
Well I do and it's my decision.
But you shouldn't. I'm dangerous to be around, every second you're with me you're at risk.
Well, I can decide for myself.
I know you think that, but I just don't think you really understand how terrible we are.
When was the last time someone got hurt because of this?
When your wrist was broken. Or today. You cried.
Edward, my wrist was an accident and today was a relief!
Don't be so melodramatic, I'm fine!
You're not though.
I am! Please don't tell me how I feel.
But you're not reacting properly.
You can't possibly be ok with this. It's just not right. You're just in shock.
Let me decide how I feel for fuck's sake!
I'm sorry Bella.
Edward! I don't want you to apologise.
I'm fine.
Edward?
Ugh! You're driving me crazy!
I'm so sorry.
Look, I'll see you at school. Just calm the fuck down. Ok? Everything's fine!
