How to Save a Life

by bexie25

Step one you say we need to talk, he walks you say sit down, it's just a talk. He smiles politely back at you. You stare politely right on through. Meeting on a bus, Edward and Bella are immediately attracted to each other but their gloomy, abuse-ridden pasts make them both hesitant to trust anyone. Follow them as Bella learns not only how to save a life, but hers is saved as well.

169. Chapter 168

That night, when Edward's asleep, I get out of bed.

It's a hot night; the fan is on over us and Edward's tangled in just the sheets. He's sweating too and though he's good with it, I can't fucking handle the heat.

Deep inside me, I know that that's not the only reason. But… it's easy enough to just pretend that the problem is not there at night. It's easy enough when I have Edward sleeping peacefully and soundly next to me.

But right now, I'm high strung and I can't seem to settle the fuck down.

When I grab my phone, which I left in the lounge room, I check for emails and texts and shit.

And there it is.

No, I will not stop for a while there... but you may have to wait like, 10 minutes. :D
