rt of a
package deal。〃
〃Bella—〃
〃Think it over;〃 I insisted。 〃And while you're doing that; could you give me
some privacy? I really need a
shower。〃
Charlie's face was a strange shade of purple; but he left; slamming the door
behind him。 I heard him
stomp furiously down the stairs。
I threw off my quilt; and Edward was already there; sitting in the rocking
chair as if he d been present
through the whole conversation。
〃Sorry about that;〃 I whispered。
〃It's not as if I don't deserve far worse;〃 he murmured。 〃Don't start anything
with Charlie over me; please。
〃
〃Don't worry about it;〃 I breathed as I gathered up my bathroom things and a
set of clean clothes。 〃I will
start exactly as much as is necessary; and no more than that。 Or are you
trying to tell me I have nowhere
to go?〃 I widened my eyes with false alarm。
〃You'd move in with a house full of vampires?〃
〃That's probably the safest place for someone like me。 Besides〃 I grinned。
〃If Charlie kicks me out;
then there's no need for a graduation deadline; is there?〃
His jaw tightened。 〃So eager for eternal damnation;〃 he muttered。
〃You know you don't really believe that。〃
〃Oh; don't I?〃 he fumed。
〃No。 You don't。〃
He glowered at me and started to speak; but I cut him off。
〃If you really believed that you'd lost your soul; then when I found you in
Volterra; you would have
realized immediately what was happening; instead of thinking we were both dead
together。 But you
didn't—you said 'Amazing。 Carlisle was right;'〃 I reminded him; triumphant。
〃There's hope in you; after
all。〃
