Chapter 2
"Please?"
"No."
"But Eddie!"
"No Christie."
"Eddie!" she said dragging out his name.
"Christie no!" it was fun to watch. As soon as Edward pulled out of the driveway Christie started to hum very loudly. It was the Spongebob theme song.
"Eddie, do you watch Spongebob?"
"No."
"Well I do, my favorite episode was when Patrick wrote a song. Do you want to know how it goes? Twinkle, twinkle Patrick star, I made myself a sandwich, my mommy named it Fred…" she sang the song over and over again until we reached my house.
"I'll walk you to the door." Edward suggested. Without saying anything Christie came out of the car next and walked behind us. Since I forgot my keys I rang the doorbell. In a few minutes Charlie answered it.
"Hello, Bella, Edward. And who is this?" he asked,
"My name is Christie Clark age five." She said automatically.
"Hello sweetie," he said to her and then looked at Edward, "are your parents adopting again?" he asked. Edward nodded his head. Then turning back to Christie he said, "Well your welcome here anytime." Christie beamed.
"See you later Bella, Charlie." Before leaving I felt him press a note into my hand.
"Bye Edward." I told him and we went inside. The note said,
"Sorry, I'm not coming tonight. Spending it with the little pain."
