He claimed he was long past the temptation my blood used to be for him�察�that the idea of losing me had 
cured him of any desire for it。 But I knew the smell of my blood still caused him pain!still burned his 
throat like he was inhaling flames。 

I opened my eyes and found his open�察�too�察�staring at my face。 It made no sense when he looked at me 
that way。 Like I was the prize rather than the outrageously lucky winner。 

Our gazes locked for a moment�察�his golden eyes were so deep that I imagined I could see all the way 
into his soul。 It seemed silly that this fact!the existence of his soul!had ever been in question�察�even if 
he was a vampire。 He had the most beautiful soul�察�more beautiful than his brilliant mind or his 
incomparable face or his glorious body。 

He looked back at me as if he could see my soul�察�too�察�and as if he liked what he saw。 

He couldn't see into my mind�察�though�察�the way he saw into everyone else's。 Who knew why!some 
strange glitch in my brain that made it immune to all the extraordinary and frightening things some 
immortals could do。 ��Only my mind was immune�察�my body was still subject to vampires with abilities that 
worked in ways other than Edward's。�� But I was seriously grateful to whatever malfunction it was that 
kept my thoughts a secret。 It was just too embarrassing to consider the alternative。 

I pulled his face to mine again。 

;Definitely staying�察─�he murmured a moment later。 

;No�察�no。 It's your bachelor party。 You have to go。; 




                                                                                                               Page 16

I said the words�察�but the fingers of my right hand locked into his bronze hair�察�my left pressed tighter 
against the small of his back。 His cool hands stroked my face。 

;Bachelor parties are designed for those who are sad to see the passing of their single days。 I couldn't be 
more eager to have mine behind me。 So there's really no point。; 

;True。; I breathed against the winter´cold skin of his throat。 

This was pretty close to my happy place。 Charlie slept obliviously in his room�察�which was almost as 
good as being alone。 We were curled up on my small bed�察�intertwined as much as it was possible�察�
considering the thick afghan I was swathed in like a cocoon。 I hated the necessity of the blanket�察�but it 
sort of ruined the romance when my teeth started chattering。 Charlie would notice if I turned the heat on 
in August___ 

At least�察�if / had to be bundled up�察�Edward's shirt was on the floor。 I never got over the shock of how 
perfect his body was!white�察�cool�察�and polished as marble。 I ran my hand down his stone chest now�察�
tracing across the flat planes of his stomach�察�just marveling。 A light shudder rippled through him�察�and his 
mouth found mine again。 Carefully�察�I let the tip of my tongue press against his glass´smooth lip�察�and he 
sighed。 His sweet breath washed!cold and delicious!over my face。 

He started to pull away!that was his automatic response whenever he decided things had gone too far�察�
his reflex reaction whenever he most wanted to keep going。 Edward had spent most of his life rejecting 
any kind of physical gratification。 I knew it was terrifying to him trying to change those habits now。 

;Wait�察─�I said�察�gripping his shoulders and hugging myself close to him。 I kicked one leg free and wrapped 
it around his waist。 ;Practice makes perfect。; 

He chuckled。 ;Well�察�we should be fairly close to perfection by this point�察�then�察�shouldn't we�拭�Have you 
slept at all in the last month�拭─�

;But this is the dress rehearsal�察─�I reminded him�察 �and we've only practiced certain scenes。 It's no time 
for playing safe。; 

I thought he would laugh�察�but he didn't answer�察�and his body was motionless with sudden stress。 The 
gold in his eyes seemed to harden from a liquid to a solid。 

I thought over my words�察�realized what he would have heard in them。 

;Bella。。。�察─�he whispered。 

;Don't start this again�察─�I said。 ;A deal's a deal。; 

;I don't know。 It's too hard to concentrate when you're with me like this。 I!I can't think straight。 I won't 
be able to control myself。 You'll get hurt。; 

;I'll be fine。; 

;Bella 。 。。; 

;Shh� ─�I pressed my lips to his to stop his panic attack。 I'd heard it before。 He wasn't getting out of this 
deal。 Not after insisting I marry him first。 



                                                                                                               Page 17

He kissed me back for a moment�察�but I could tell he wasn't as into it as before。 Worrying�察�always 
worrying。 How different it would be when he didn't need to worry about me anymore。 What would he do 
with all his free time�拭�He'd have to get a new hobby。 

;How are your feet�拭─�he asked。 

Knowing he didn't mean that literally�察�I answered�察�Toasty warm。; 

;Really�拭�No second thoughts�拭�It's not too late to change your mind。; 

;Are you trying to ditch me�拭─�

He chuckled。 ;Just making sure。 I don't want you to do anything you're not sure about。; 

;I'm sure about you。 The rest I can live through。; 

He hesitated�察�and I wondered if I'd put my foot in my mouth again。 

;Can you�拭─�he asked quietly。 ;I don't mean the wedding!which I am positive you will survive despite 
your qualms!but afterward。。。 what about Renee�察�what about Charlie�拭─�

I sighed。 ;I'll miss them。; Worse�察�that they would miss me�察�but I didn't want to give him any fuel。 

;Angela and Ben and Jessica and Mike。; 

;I'll miss my friends�察�too。; I smiled in the darkness。 ;Especially Mike。 Oh�察�Mike� �How will I go on�拭─�

He growled。 

I laughed but then was serious。 ;Edward�察�we've been through this and through this。 I know it will be 
hard�察�but this is what I want。 I want you�察�and I want you forever。 One lifetime is simply not enough for 
me。; 

;Frozen forever at eighteen�察─�he whispered。 

;Every woman's dream come true�察─�I teased。 

;Never changing。。。 never moving forward。; 

;What does that mean�拭─�

He answered slowly。 ;Do you remember when we told Charlie we were getting married�拭�And he 
thought you were。。。 pregnant�拭─�

;And he thought about shooting you�察─�I guessed with a laugh。 ;Admit it!for one second�察�he honestly 
considered it。; 

He didn't answer。 

;What�察�Edward�拭─�



                                                                                                           Page 18

;I just wish。。。 well�察�I wish that he'd been right。; 

;Gah�察─�I gasped。 

;More that there was some way he could have been。 That we had that kind of potential。 I hate taking 
that away from you�察�too。; 

It took me a minute。 ;I know what I'm doinq。; 

;How could you know that�察�Bella�拭�Look at my mother�察�look at my sister。 It's not as easy a sacrifice as 
youimagine。; 

;Esme and Rosalie get by just fine。 If it's a problem later�察�we can do what Esme did!we'll adopt。; 

He sighed�察�and then his voice was fierce。 ;It's not right I don't want you to have to make sacrifices for 
me。 I want to give you things�察�not take things away from you。 I don't want to steal your future。 If I were 
human!; 

I put my hand over his lips。 ;You are my future。 Now stop。 No moping�察�or I'm calling your brothers to 
come and get you。 Maybe you need a bachelor party。; 

;I'm sorry。 I am moping�察�aren't I�拭�Must be the nerves。; 

;Are your feet cold�拭─�

;Not in that sense。 I've been waiting a century to marry you�察�Miss Swan。 The wedding ceremony is the 
one thing I can't wait!; He broke off mid´thought。 ;Oh�察�for the love of all that's holy� ─�

;What's wrong�拭─�

He gritted his teeth。 ;You don't have to call my brothers。 Apparently Emmett and Jasper are not going to 
let me bow out tonight。; 

I clutched him closer for one second and then released him。 I didn't have a prayer of winning a 
tug´of´war with Emmett。 ;Have fun。; 

There was a squeal against the window!someone deliberately scraping their steel nails across the glass 
to make a horrible�察�cover´your´ears�察�goose´bumps´down´your´spine noise。 I shuddered。 

;If you don't send Edward out�察─�Emmett!still invisible in the night!hissed menacingly�察 �we're coming in 
after him� ─�

;Go�察─�I laughed。 ;Before they break my house。; 

Edward rolled his eyes�察�but he got to his feet in one fluid movement and had his shirt back on in another。 
He leaned down and kissed my forehead。 

;Get to sleep。 You've got a big day tomorrow。; 

;Thanks� �That's sure to help me wind down。; 



                                                                                                             Page 19

;I'll meet you at the altar。; 

;HI be the one in white。; I smiled at how perfectly blase I sounded。 

He chuckled�察�said�察 �Very convincing�察─�and then suddenly sank into a crouch�察�his muscles coiled like a 
spring。 He vanished!launching himself out my window too swiftly for my eyes to f
