Chapter 14
Bella and Edward stared at each other, both struggling with something to say.
"Hi," they sounded together, laughing at how ridiculous and uncomfortable they were.
"I'm sorry," they continued, neither missing a beat. Is she/he as nervous as I am? they both thought.
If they both knew how intuned their thoughts were, it might have hampered the rest of their night.
"You first," Edward spoke before Bella had a chance. He wanted to hear her voice over the crackle of the fire.
"Um. Do you play?" Bella asked, pointing over the fire to the guitar case sitting next to him. It was the first thing she could think of. This was the closest she had ever been to him, and now she knew the color of his eyes, his hair, and his lips. His green eyes were remenisent of new leaves in early spring. His hair with different shades of red and orange, blended with the fire. The pinkness of his lips reminded her of cherry blossoms. He was so full of color.
"Some," he said, trying to sound modest about how good he really was. He loved playing when he was alone or with close friends. He didn't like playing in front of crowds. He wanted to be known for who he was, not his music. He had learned that lesson early when that had been the case when he was younger and playing the piano.
"Oh," was all Bella could think to say. She didn't understand why she was disappointed. She hadn't thought much about wheather he played or didn't, so she hadn't hoped that maybe they had music in common. Not that anyone would like the kind of music she played. Her mom loved it, and that was all that mattered. She wanted to think of something else to say, but was at a loss.
