The door opens and Edwards head snaps in her direction. He can't keep a smile from his face. She's more beautiful than he remembers. Her reciprocating smile lights up the tiny room.
"Hi, Edward. I'm glad to see you back." She closes the door, but doesn't move close to Edward.
"Hi, Bella. Yeah. I had to come back."
Bella's brows furrow not knowing exactly what he means by that. "Was there a problem from your last waxing?"
He shakes his head, nervous about what to say and how to say it, although he's rehearsed it numerous times. "I really just wanted to apologize."
Now Bella is shaking her head. She steps closer to Edward as she speaks. "I'm the one who needs to apologize. If I had known that Emmett put you up to this I would have discouraged, um, all that we did," she says stuttering her words. "I feel horrible for making you uncomfortable and causing you pain."
"Bella, you were just doing your job. I'm sure you made it as painless and comfortable as possible. But I want to apologize for my less than appropriate reaction to my, um, treatment."
