"Well hey there darlin'" I said giving him my brightest grin. "You didn't answer my text back, so I started thinkin' you weren't gonna show." I said, pouting my bottom lip out a bit.
His eyes narrowed slightly, then quickly morphed into a tight grin.
"Well, I told you that I wanted to come say goodbye to you." He said as I opened the door, and gestured for him to come inside.
He stepped in with his hands in his pockets as he looked around at the pictures that were hanging on the wall.
"Well, I'm glad you're here Edward." I said slightly unsure of myself again, as I felt my face turn red. "Can I get you a drink or snack or anything?" I asked as his demeanor slightly changed at my blush and he stared at me for a moment.
"Um.." he cleared his throat and quickly looked away. "Sure, water?" he questioned.
I nodded and ran off to the kitchen.
Goodness gracious, could I be anymore stupid?
I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and took a deep breath before walking back in the living room.
"Here ya go." I said, as I handed the chilly bottle off to him.
He took a swig and looked off at a picture of Emmett, dad, and I before speaking.
"Ya know, Bella. I really wish you weren't going off. I really felt like we clicked and could be great friends." He said as I watched his delectable Adam's apple bob up and down as he swallowed.
Friends
Friends?
Deep breath, and remember… I will come back and make him want me more that simple, 'friends.'
I nodded my head, and figured it was either time to grab the bull by the horns, or get out of the pin.
