Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
I have to answer right?
Duh, Edward. What the fuck?
Right.
I clear my throat.
And then fix my towel.
Why?
I don't fucking know. Jesus, what am I even getting hard for?
"Hello?"
I hear her sigh. "Edward. Hi."
Edward.
Well that's a good fucking sign.
"Isabella." Clearing my throat of nothing once again. "How are you?"
"I'm good. Excited. Merry Christmas." I can hear the smile in her voice.
"Merry Christmas, Isabella."
I laugh. "My mom is a pain in the ass, but it's fine. I try to remember I'm a 34 year old man."
"Trust me, I won't forget." She says with a...particular inflection.
Before we get there..."Isabella - "
"I do think you're crazy - "
I gum my lips. "My psychiatrist doesn't like that word."
" - but...it's not the end of the world. Was I a little creeped out? Yes. Do I have questions? Yes."
