Chapter 20
While Bella looked at the fire, she noticed how the orange stood between the burning wood and the blazing fire. It took a few minutes before she could formulated her words.
"Orange shows," she knew this was going to sound weird, so she concentrated on the sunrise, watching it grow and lighten as the sun teased the sky. "Transition. Between the wood that is heated and the flames that give off heat is orange. It burns hot without flames," Bella said. She swallowed and thought back over her words. As true as they were, they still didn't make sence, or so she thought.
Edward looked at the fire, past the flames, to where the fire started and tried to picture orange. His grin widened because Bella was rambling. She was trying so hard, and he liked how deep her thoughts were, even if he still didn't understand orange.
"It's the transition between summer and winter when the trees drop their leaves, conserving their strength to survive the winter. Or the transition between day and night." She watched as Edward contemplated what she was saying. With his silence, she assumed it still didn't make sense.
"Orange is... Orange is like taking a deep breath," she inhaled to explain. "Smelling all the fresh baked goods my mom has in the kitchen." She smiled when she noticed Edward's smile. She watched it grow into a grin that made her heart melt. "Or feeling the sun on your skin in the middle of summer." The light from the fire caused Edward's green eyes to sparkle.
Edward could almost see the colors as Bella continued, understanding them for the first time.
Edward's heart beat a little harder as he listened. If yellow was a flutter, what his heart was doing now, must be orange, he thought.
