him, so don't be afraid. He's safe with Esme and Rosalie watching."
"What are you wearing?"
"Um, well, I guess I'm wearing a snug, ¾ length charcoal grey t-shirt and some dark wash Levi's 510 Super Skinny Jeans."
"I miss you," I whispered into the phone, hoping that Alice wouldn't be able to hear me over the sound of her own breathing.
"I know, Bella. Believe me, I know." He paused. "So what are you wearing?" He giggled.
I giggled! "I'm wearing... your mom's dress, some big slippers, um... ketchup?... "
There was a silence. "Would you like me to go on?" I whispered in my most sensual voice.
Fredward's voice cracked when he replied: "No, thanks."
"I love you," I reminded him.
"Could you believe that, despite everything we've put each other through, that we love each other?"
"What?"
"I'll come for you soon."
"I'll come for you anytime."
"I'll be waiting."
"Me too."
As soon as the phone went dead, the cloud of depression began to creep over me again.
