SM OWNS IT ALL.
We leave the coffee shop before we make a bigger spectacle of ourselves.
"We can continue this at my place if you want." Edward suggests. "I just moved in so it's pretty empty, but I've got a couch or the dining table…"
I'm conflicted. I want to and I don't. I never want to leave his side again, but then I'm also afraid of what he might want from me. I don't think I can give him much now.
"I would like to, but I have to get back to Sophie. I told Alice I'd only be a couple of hours."
At the mention of her, he starts to fidget uncomfortably.
"I would love to meet her, Bella. Officially. I want my daughter to know who I am. Do…do you think we could do that?"
To think, just a few weeks ago, I was determined to keep him away from her. That I would not answer any of his questions or divulge any information to this man…
Today, I want nothing more that to reunite the two most important people in my life.
My mind keeps telling me, I knew he would come and stir shit up. But this is good.
I feel okay with it. New beginnings.
"We can definitely do that." I smile at him.
His returning smile makes my heart almost burst at the seams.
I know I can trust him with Sophia, but I'm not sure if I can trust him with my heart yet.
