Emmett was the one to pull away, finally. He returned a hand to her hip and set her back on the flats of her unsteady feet. With the pad of his thumb, he wiped his wet kiss from her mouth.

“Rose.” He swallowed, catching his breath. “Rose. Not like this.”

She answered the only way she could.

“Yes, Emmett. Like this.”

He slid his hands up to her shoulders. She could see him struggling again against what he wanted and what he thought he should do. She willed her mouth to say nothing, but her eyes said it all: Please.

It was only a moment before he shut his eyes, and a moment more before he took her uninjured hand and walked her to her bedroom.

“Emmett?”

Cool fingers on his forearm and the repeat of his name rousted him from sleep.

“Rose?” He sat up, trying to untwist himself from the sheets. He grabbed her wrist, looking around the dim apartment. “Are you okay?”

“Yeah … I …” But instead of continuing she pressed her mouth into a tight line. He leaned forward, closer to get a better look at her face. She was sitting across from him on the coffee table, just as he had with her earlier.

“What time is it?” he asked, rubbing his eye and scratching down his cheek to his jaw.

“2:30ish? I couldn’t sleep.”

“What’s wrong?” He curled his hand around her forearm, rubbing his thumb up and down. Her ligaments bounced like guitar strings. “Tell me.”

“I feel weird. But, not like I expected.” Rosalie pulled a tendril of hair over her lips. “I guess that’s why it’s weird.”

“Like what?” He moved to the edge of the couch, his knees on either side of hers. “What did you expect?” he asked, trying to put a pin in what exactly she was talking about.

Rosalie dropped her head, shaking it.

“Rose …”

She brought her hands to her face, rubbing her eyes and eyebrows. When she looked at him again she said, “Can I lay here with you?” Her voice was quiet; her eyes hopeful, edged with a plea.

“Yeah, of course.”
