Sitting on the edge of my bed I can’t help the feeling of concern washing over me as I think about the way she looked this morning. From what I have already figured out about Bella, I’m sure she went to work today, opting to not skip out on responsibility. For some unknown reason I just can’t seem to get her out of my head. I get up off the bed, push my hand through my hair and sigh as I grab my keys, knowing that what I’m about to do is probably the stupidest thing I have ever done.
Man up, Cullen!
I have to see her. I just need to make sure that she really is okay after all the strange events over the past few days. At least that’s what I tell myself.
“I’m going into town for a while,” I tell Jasper, who is sitting on the couch watching Jeopardy with Alice.
“Everything okay?” Jasper asks as perceptive as always.
“Yeah, everything is fine... uhm we just need more beer,” I reply with a weak ass excuse.
Alice looks at me knowingly, offering me a small smile before saying, “Will you please bring me some Amaretto?”
“Sure thing babe,” I say before turning and heading out the door.
