Edward took the pictures and I sat next to him. Glad that Edward and I were done for the day. I had put all the clothes away, and tidied up the place as a thank you to the shop owner. We were going out to eat after this, but I wanted a breather before then.

“Esme, can I go to the book shop I seen down the road?” I asked, hoping she would say yes. “I’ll meet you at the restaurant.” She nodded, telling me to be careful since we were in Seattle. I smiled and gave her a kiss before I took off.

I was glad to be away from Edward for a moment. I needed to get myself under control. If he didn’t have feelings for me, I still had to get along with him. Our parents were dating! A Volvo drove past me and turned down the road. I’d never seen another Volvo besides Edwards. How strange? They did meet us up here. Maybe Edward was taking off for the day.

I passed the book shop, just happy to be walking around. It looked more like a witch shop to me. The shop keeper was a little old lady with long gray hair. I didn’t want to have to talk to her.

Rose and Emmett got along, they joked like normal, and Alice and Jasper were just starting to get to know each other. Why couldn’t it be that easy for Edward and me? I noticed the sun setting, it was prettier up north. The sky seemed closer, almost. Nothing compared to Edward though.

I sighed, did everything have to come back to him. I turned down between two buildings. There was walkway leading to another road. Maybe there was a better book store down this road. I noticed how dark it was getting and reached into my purse for my phone. I wanted to make sure it wasn’t too late.

Damn. I must have left it at home. I reached the road and it was just warehouses. I saw another road not to far up and I figured I should try one last time before I gave up. It was darker back here, warning started to creep up.

“Hey, what’s your name, sweetheart?” A voice from my right, said. I was surprised to hear someone. I didn’t respond, I just kept my eyes forward after I looked over at the four of them.
