Previously…
My hands glowed a
light pinkish hue around the outline of my fingers, and I gasped.
~oOo~
Edward took my hands. “Light pink means you’re in love.”
“But I’m not. Not yet, anyway.” My voice shook, then trailed
off. I looked at him and saw his eyes fall in sadness. He misunderstood, and I
shook my head. I wanted him to know how I felt. “But I do like you. I don’t
know, I feel a really strong connection with you that I haven’t with anyone
else.” I pushed his hair out of his eyes, rubbing his cool, smooth face. “If
anything happened to me, if this turned into a warzone between us and the
Shadows, it’d hurt you, and I don’t want to hurt you. So is it ok if we waited
for awhile?”
He smiled and wrapped an arm around my shoulders, bringing
me closer. “Trust me, I won’t let anything happen to you. I’ll never let anyone
hurt you, not even myself.” He inhaled my hair deeply, as if it would be the
last time he ever would. “And yes, we can wait.”
