Since he is still standing in front of her, she pats his cheek.
"But don't worry! I don't expect you to love me or anything like that!"
When Edward looked at her with confusion, she gave a hollow laugh.
"I do however, expect you to be the picture perfect husband in front of my family, especially my father! I don't want him to think that there's something wrong with us!"
"You're telling me to pretend?" he asks incredulously.
"Oh, don't look so shocked Edward! After all, from what I remember, it's what you're good at!"
She turns away from him and starts getting dressed.
While Edward just stands there, he can't seem to grasp the full impact of her words.
"This is not the way that I imagined things would go between us!" he thinks to himself.
While she's getting dressed, "You can go on pretending that you love me when we are with our family and friends, I'm sure you can manage that! And I'll also be your picture perfect wife in front of them. No one else has to know that we are just pretending." she says nonchalantly.
When Edward didn't say anything, she continues to speak.
"And by the way, if you want to have a mistress, please be discreet about it!" she whispers in his ear.
"But don't you dare sow your seeds anywhere else because they are mine! I will be the only mother of your children whether you like it or not!"
"Deal!" Edward says out of nowhere.
He'll take this chance to show her that he loves her.
Maybe if he is persistent and consistent enough she'll soon realize that he is not pretending and that he really does love her.
He hopes.
At least, she is not averse to the idea of being the mother of his children.
The thought of which made him smile.
That seems to irritate her.
"What are you smiling about?"
"Our children." and his smile grew wider.
"What about them?" she asks annoyed.
He inches closer to her.
He looks straight into her eyes.
She stares right back at him.
He stares at her lips.
She bites them unconsciously when she sees him looking at it.
He moves closer until his lips are a hair's breath away from her lips.
She feels her heart beating out of her chest.
She holds her breath in anticipation of what he's going to do next.
"Let's start making them now!" he says as he carries her in his arms while kissing her.
