Chapter 11: I don't feel any shame, I won't apologize
I woke up, I looked over at Edward and his eyes were closed.
So he does sleep.
His arms were locked around my bare waist holding me against him.
I tried to push away from him but I couldn't escape his solid grip.
"Edward?" I said.
He didn't move.
"Edward?" I said louder.
Still no response.
I slapped his cheek.
Not hard...well kind of.
His eyes opened, "Did you just slap me?" He asked.
"Yes." I replied.
"May I ask why?"
"Because you wouldn't wake up."
"So you decided to slap me?"
"Well I can't get out of bed." I stated.
"Why can't you?" He asked.
"Because you're holding on to me."
He let go of me.
"You're really strong." I said.
"Yeah," He replied.
I was still lying next to him, a little too close but I was comfortable.
This is weird because I usually don't like people being this close to me.
Realizing how close we were and that I was practically naked made me blush.
I looked down hiding my scarlet cheeks.
"You're blushing." Edward stated.
"You're stating the obvious." I said.
"You weren't blushing last night." He said.
"I was drunk last night."
"About that-"
"I don't wanna hear it Edward." I interrupted him.
"But-"
"I don't feel any shame, I won't apologize." I stated.
"You are the most stubborn person I've ever met." He said.
"And you're the most persistent person I've ever met."
"When are you going to give up on me?" I asked.
"Not any time soon." He answered.
I looked up at him and my lips gently brushed his.
My breath caught in my throat.
I moved so I was lying on my back but still very close to him.
The blankets were at my knees but I was still hot.
"So how did you sleep?" Edward asked.
"Um, fine. What about you?" I replied.
"I slept very well."
I looked at him, "Why'd you sleep very well?"
"Because I was with you." he answered.
"Why would that affect your sleeping?"
He breathed a laugh.
"Did I affect your sleeping? He asked.
"Um, I don't know, I was...comfortable." I said.
He smiled, "Good."
"I could sleep with you every night." He suggested.
"Now why would you wanna do that?"
"Because I enjoy sleeping with you."
I laughed, "Why?"
He shook his head, "Never mind."
"Never mind what?"
"How many boyfriends have you had?" He asked.
That was random.
"Umm, I don't know... "
I counted on my fingers and went through the names in my head.
"...8." I said.
"That's a lot."
"No it's not."
"Must you disagree with everything I say?"
"I don't."
"Sure you don't."
"Don't get sassy Edward." I said.
"I'm not."
It was silent for a moment.
My heart was hammering in my chest.
