open my eyes。
I was lying across Edward's chest�察�but he was very still and his arms were not wrapped around me。 That
was a bad sign。 I was afraid to admit I was awake and face his anger!no matter whom it was directed
at today。
Carefully�察�I peeked through my eyelashes。 He was staring up at the dark ceiling�察�his arms behind his
head。 I pulled myself up on my elbow so that I could see his face better。 It was smooth�察�expressionless。
;How much trouble am I in�拭─�I asked in a small voice。
;Heaps�察─�he said�察�but turned his head and smirked at me。
I breathed a sigh of relief。 ;I am sorry�察─�I said。 ;I didn't mean。。。 Well�察�I don't know exactly what that was
last night。; I shook my head at the memory of the irrational tears�察�the crushing grief。
;You never did tell me what your dream was about。;
;I guess I didn't!but I sort of showed you what it was about。; I laughed nervously。
;Oh�察─�he said。 His eyes widened�察�and then he blinked。 ;Interesting。;
;It was a very good dream�察─�I murmured。 He didn't comment�察�so a few seconds later I asked�察 �Am I
forgiven�拭─�
;I'm thinking about it。;
I sat up�察�planning to examine myself!there didn't seem to be any feathers�察�at least。 But as I moved�察�an
odd wave of vertigo hit。 I swayed and fell back against the pillows。
;Whoa。。。 head rush。;
His arms were around me then。 ;You slept for a long time。 Twelve hours。;
;Twelve�拭�How strange。
I gave myself a quick once´over while I spoke�察�trying to be inconspicuous about it。 I looked fine。 The
bruises on my arms were still a week old�察�yellowing。 I stretched experimentally。 I felt fine�察�too。 Well�察�
better than fine�察�actually。

;Is the inventory complete�拭─�
I nodded sheepishly。 ;The pillows all appear to have survived。;
;Unfortunately�察�I can't say the same for your�察�er�察�nightgown。; He nodded toward the foot of the bed�察�
where several scraps of black lace were strewn across the silk sheets。
;That's too bad�察─�I said。 ;I liked that one。;
;I did�察�too。;
;Were there any other casualties�拭─�I asked timidly。
;I'll have to buy Esme a new bed frame�察─�he confessed�察�glancing over his shoulder。 I followed his gaze
and was shocked to see that large chunks of wood had apparently been gouged from the left side of the
headboard。
;Hmm。; I frowned。 ;You'd think I would have heard that。;
;You seem to be extraordinarily unobservant when your attention is otherwise involved。;
;I was a bit absorbed�察─�I admitted�察�blushing a deep red。
He touched my burning cheek and sighed。 ;I'm really going to miss that。;
I stared at his face�察�searching for any signs of the anger or remorse I feared。 He gazed back at me
evenly�察�his expression calm but otherwise unreadable。
;How are you feeling��'7
He laughed。
;What�拭─�I demanded。
;You look so guilty!like you've committed a crime。;
;I feel guilty�察─�I muttered。
;So you seduced your all´too´willing husband。 That's not a capital offense。;
He seemed to be teasing。
My cheeks got hotter。 ;The word seduced implies a certain amount of premeditation。;
;Maybe that was the wrong word�察─�he allowed。
;You're not angry�拭─�
He smiled ruefully。 Tm not angry。;
;Why not�拭─�

;Well。 。 。; He paused。 ;I didn't hurt you�察�for one thing。 It was easier this time�察�to control myself�察�to
channel the excesses。; His eyes flickered to the damaged frame again。 ;Maybe because I had a better
idea of what to expect。;
A hopeful smile started to spread across my face。 ;I told you that it was all about practice。;
He rolled his eyes。
My stomach growled�察�and he laughed。 ;Breakfast time for the human�拭─�he asked。
;Please�察─�I said�察�hopping out of bed。 I moved too quickly�察�though�察�and had to stagger drunkenly to regain
my balance。 He caught me before I could stumble into the dresser。
;Are you all right�拭─�
;If I don't have a better sense of equilibrium in my next life�察�I'm demanding a refund。;
I cooked this morning�察�frying up some eggs!too hungry to do anything more elaborate。 Impatient�察�I
flipped them onto a plate after just a few minutes。
;Since when do you eat eggs sunny´side up�拭─�he asked。
;Since now。;
;Do you know how many eggs you've gone through in the last week�拭─�He pulled the trash bin out from
under the sink!it was full of empty blue cartons。
;Weird�察─�I said after swallowing a scorching bite。 ;This place is messing with my appetite。; And my
dreams�察�and my already dubious balance。 ;But I like it here。 Well probably have to leave soon�察�though�察�
won't we�察�to make it to Dartmouth in time�拭�Wow�察�I guess we need to find a place to live and stuff�察�too。;
He sat down next to me。 ;You can give up the college pretense now!you've gotten what you wanted。
And we didn't agree to a deal�察�so there are no strings attached。;
I snorted。 ;It wasn't a pretense�察�Edward。 I don't spend my free time plotting like some people do。 What
can we do to wear Bella out today�拭─�I said in a poor impression of his voice。 He laughed�察�unashamed。
;I really do want a little more time being human。; I leaned over to run my hand across his bare chest。 ;I
have not had enough。;
He gave me a dubious look。 ;For this�拭─�he asked�察�catching my hand as it moved down his stomach。
;Sex was the key all along�拭─�He rolled his eyes。 ;Why didn't i think of that�拭─�he muttered sarcastically。 ;I
could have saved myself a lot of arguments。;
I laughed。 ;Yeah�察�probably。;
;You are so human�察─�he said again。
;I know。;
A hint of a smile pulled at his lips。 ;We're going to Dartmouth�拭�Really�拭─�

;I'll probably fail out in one semester。;
;I'll tutor you。; The smile was wide now。 ;You're going to love college。;
;Do you think we can find an apartment this late�拭─�
He grimaced�察�looking guilty。 ;Well�察�we sort of already have a house there。 You know�察�just in case。;
;You bought a house�拭─�
;Real estate is a good investment。;
I raised one eyebrow and then let it go。 ;So we're ready�察�then。;
;I'll have to see if we can keep your 'before' car for a little longer___;
;Yes�察�heaven forbid I not be protected from tanks。;
He grinned。
;How much longer can we stay�拭─�I asked。
;We're fine on time。 A few more weeks�察�if you want。 And then we can visit Charlie before we go to
New Hampshire。 We could spend Christmas with Renee___;
His words painted a very happy immediate future�察�one free of pain for everyone involved。 The
Jacob´drawer�察�all but forgotten�察�rattled�察�and i amended the thought!for almost everyone。
This wasn't getting any easier。 Now that I'd discovered exactly how good being human could be�察�it was
tempting to let my plans drift。 Eighteen or nineteen�察�nineteen or twenty。。。 Did it really matter�拭�I wouldn't
change so much in a year。 And being human with Edward。。。 The choice got trickier every day。
;A few weeks�察─�I agreed。 And then�察�because there never seemed to be enough time�察�I added�察 �So I was
thinking!you know what I was saying about practice before�拭─�
He laughed。 ;Can you hold on to that thought�拭�I hear a boat。 The cleaning crew must be here。;
He wanted me to hold on to that thought。 So did that mean he was not going to give me any more
trouble about practicing�拭�I smiled。
;Let me explain the mess in the white room to Gustavo�察�and then we can go out。 There's a place in the
jungle on the south!;
;I don't want to go out。 i am not hiking all over the island today。 I want to stay here and watch a movie。;
He pursed his lips�察�trying not to laugh at my disgruntled tone。 ;All right�察�whatever you'd like。 Why don't
you pick one out while I get the door�拭─�
;I didn't hear a knock。;

He cocked his head to the side�察�listening。 A half second later�察�a faint�察�timid rap on the door sounded。 He
grinned and turned for the hallway。
I wandered over to the shelves under the big TV and started scanning through the titles。 It was hard to
decide where to begin。 They had more DVDs than a rental store。
I could hear Edward's low�察�velvet voice as he came back down the hall�察�conversing fluidly in what I
assumed was perfect Portuguese。 Another�察�harsher�察�human voice answered in the same tongue。
Edward led them into the room�察�pointing toward the kitchen on his way。 The two Brazilians looked
incredibly short and dark next to him。 One was a round man�察�the other a slight female�察�both their faces
creased with lines。 Edward gestured to me with a proud smile�察�and I heard my name mixed in with a
flurry of unfamiliar words。 I flushed a little as I thought of the downy mess in the white room�察�which they
would soon encounter。 The little man smiled at me politely。
But the tiny coffee´skinned woman didn't smile。 She stared at me with a mixture of shock�察�worry�察�and
most of all�察�wide´eyed fear。 Before I could react�察�Edward motioned for them to follow him toward the
chicken coop�察�and they were gone。
When he reappeared�察�he was alone。 He walked swiftly to my side and wrapped his arms around me。
;What's with her�拭─�I whispered urgently�察�remembering her panicked expression。
He shrugged�察�unperturbed。 ;Kaure's part Ticuna Indian。 She was raised to be more superstitious!or
you could call it more aware!than those who live in the modern world。 She suspects what I am�察�or
close enough。; He still didn't sound worried。 ;They have their own legends here。 The Libishomen!a
blood´drinking demon who preys exclusively on beautiful women。; He leered at me。
Beautiful women only�拭�Well�察�that was kind of flattering。
;She looked terrified�察─�I said。
;She is!but mostly she's worried about you。;
;Me�拭─�
;She's afraid of why I have you here�察�all alone。; He chuckled darkly and then looked toward the wall of
movies。 ;Oh well�察�why don't you choose something for us to watch�拭�That's an acceptably human thing to
do。;
;Yes�察�I'm sure a movie will convince her that you're human。; I laughed and clasped my arms securely
around his neck�察�stretching up on my tiptoes。 He leaned down so that I could kiss him�察�and then his arms
tightened around me�察�lifting me off the floor so he didn't have to bend。
;Movie�察�schmovie�察─�I muttered as his lips moved down my throat�察�twisting my fingers in his bronze hair。
Then I heard a gasp�察�and he put me down abruptly。 Kaure stood frozen in the hallway�察�feathers in her
black hair�察�a large sack of more feathers in her arms�察�an expression of horror on her face。 She stared at
me�察�her eye
