I'm walking down the large stairwell as I continue to replay last nights events, until I bump into Emmet on the way to my room.
"Woah! You look pale. Paler than usual."
I scoff.
"Mind your own business, Emmet. And since when do you care about my skin complexion?"
Edward suddenly pops up behind me.
"Yeah Emmet, since when do you care about her skin complexion?"
Edward giggles as he places his hand on my shoulder. He looks me up and down. This is the first time i've seen him since I was laying in his fathers bed.

My eyes are wide and my non-existent heart is beating fast as we walk into our room. Does he know? Is he mad at me?
"Not my intension to bug, but you really don't look so good." He says.
He positions his hands to my waist.
"Are you feeling okay?"
I flinch, as this touch provokes mixed feelings inside me.
"I'm fine, Edward."
He looks hesitant, as do I.
"Really, I am."
He notices my destress and leaves the room.

I am feeling more thankful than ever that he cannot read my thoughts. I shudder as I realize. He may not be able to read mine, but he can certainly read Carlisle's. Sooner or later he will know. He will perceive our love as nothing but a distant memory, for I have failed him. For I have failed us.
