ily, despite the years. The sound of it made me feel suddenly
younger, a child. I went inside, leaving the door open behind me and
turning on lights before I hung up my jacket. Then I stood in the door,
watching anxiously as Charlie and Jacob helped Billy out of the car
and into his wheelchair. I backed out of the way as the three of them
hurried in, shaking off the rain. "This is a surprise," Charlie was
saying. "It's been too long," Fake Oakley Fast Jacket
Billy answered. "I hope it's not a bad time." His dark eyes flashed up
to me again, their expression unreadable. "No, it's great. I hope you
can stay for the game." Jacob grinned. "I think that's the plan our
TV broke last week." cheap oakley five squared sunglasses
Billy made a face at his son. "And, of course, Jacob was anxious to
see Bella again," he added. Jacob scowled and ducked his head while I
fought back a surge of remorse. Maybe I'd been too convincing on the
beach. "Are you hungry?" I asked, turning toward the kitchen. I was
eager to escape Billy's searching gaze. "Naw, we ate just before we
came," Jacob answered. "How about you, Charlie?" I called over my
shoulder as I fled around the corner. "Sure," he replied, his voice
moving in the direction of the front room and the TV. I could hear
Billy's chair follow. The grilled cheese sandwiches were in the frying
pan and I was slicing up a tomato when I sensed someone behind me.
"So, how are things?" Jacob asked. "Pretty good." I smiled. His
enthusiasm was hard to resist. "How about you? Did you finish your
car?" "No." He frowned. "I still need parts. We borrowed that one." He
pointed with his thumb in the direction of the front yard. "Sorry. I
haven't seen any what was it you were looking for?" "Master
cylinder." He grinned. "Is something wrong with the truck?" he added
suddenly. "No." "Oh. I just wondered because you weren't driving
it." I stared down at the pan, pulling up the edge of a sandwich to
check the bottom side. "I got a ride with a friend." "Nice ride."
Jacob's voice was admiring. "I didn't recognize the driver, though. I
thought I knew most of the kids around here." I nodded noncommittally,
keeping my eyes down as I flipped sandwiches. "My dad seemed to know
him from somewhere." "Jacob, could you hand me some plates? They're in
the cupboard over the sink." "Sure." He got the plates in silence.
I hoped he would let it drop now. "So who was it?" he asked, setting
two plates on the counter next to me. I sighed in defeat. "Edward
Cullen." To my surprise, he laughed. I glanced up at him. cheap Oakley Fives Sunglasses
He looked a little embarrassed. "Guess that explains it, then," he
said. "I wondered why my dad was acting so strange." "That's right." I
faked an innocent expression. "He doesn't like

completely.
"But" His fingers touched my lips lightly, making me shiver again.
"There are other hungers. Hungers I don't even understand, that are
foreign to me."
"I may understand that better than you think."
"I'm not used to feeling so human. Is it always like this?"
"For me?" I paused. "No, never. Never before this."
He held my hands between his. They felt so feeble in his iron strength.
"I don't know how to be close to you," he admitted. "I don't know if I
can."
I leaned forward very slowly, cautioning him with my eyes. I placed my
cheek against his stone chest. I could hear his breath, and nothing else.
"This is enough," I sighed, closing my eyes.
In a very human gesture, he put his arms around me and pressed replica Oakley Enduring Pace Sunglasses
his face
against my hair.
"You're better at this than you give yourself credit for," I noted.
"I have human instincts they may be buried deep, but they're there."
We sat like that for another immeasurable moment; I wondered if he could
be as unwilling to move as I was. But I could see the light was fading,
the shadows of the forest beginning to touch us, and I sighed.
"You have to go."
"I thought you couldn't read my mind."
"It's getting clearer." I could hear a smile in his voice.
He took my shoulders and I looked into his face.
"Can I show you something?" he asked, sudden excitement flaring in his
eyes.
"Show me what?"
"I'll show you how I travel in the forest." He saw my expression. "Don't
worry, you'll be very safe, and we'll get to your truck much faster." His
mouth twitched up into that crooked smile so beautiful my heart nearly
stopped.
"Will you turn into a bat?" I asked warily.
He laughed, louder than I'd ever heard. "Like I haven't heard that one
before!"
"Right, I'm sure you get that all the time."
"Come on, little coward, climb on my back."
I waited to see if he was kidding, but, apparently, he meant it. He
smiled as he read my hesitation, and reached for me. My heart reacted;
even though he couldn't hear my thoughts, my pulse always gave me away.
He then proceeded to sling me onto his back, with very little effort Oakley Dart Sunglasses wholesale
on
my part, besides, when in place, clamping my legs and arms so tightly
around him that it would choke a normal person. It was like clinging to a
stone.
"I'm a bit heavier than your average backpack," I warned.
"Hah!" he snorted. I could almost hear his eyes rolling. I'd never seen
him in such high spirits before.
He startled me, suddenly grabbing my hand, pressing my palm to his cheap Oakley Fives Sunglasses
face,
and inhaling deeply.
"Easier all the time," he muttered.
And then he was running.
If I'd ever feared death before in his presence, it was nothing compared
to how I felt now.
