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.

248. Chapter 247

I'm shaking and sobbing by the time that Edward picks me up. He carries me into our room and sits me down on the bed, climbing on after him.

He pulls me onto his lap and holds me as I cry, rocking us softly.

"Talk to me, honey," he says as I try to breathe out of my sobs, calming down. "Tell me who that was… help me understand."

I look down, playing with the button on his shirt as I calm myself.

Then, when I can finally speak I look up at him. He's no longer angry, which is good because that was hard and I felt so bad.

"It was my mother, Renée."

Yeah. And I'm sorry... but I need sleep.

So, I'll give you this one... and one more... and then you'll have to wait for like... oh, I dunno... 8-10 hrs? Not that bad!
