'i'm just going to assume the worst if you don't tell me what's going on." from Bella
What Are You Hiding From Me prompts
@phoenixflowers (thank you!)
The aftermath of Bella's birthday had been... exhausting, to say the least. Jasper and Alice hadn't been home since, Carlisle and Emmett were clearing debris as Rosalie muttered about how she was right and tonight simply proved it, and Edward had left without saying anything at all. Esme had tracked him, forcing him to finally stop and explain himself. The idea in his head was one not thought out at all; despite trying to explain that both verbally and mentally, Edward simply brushed Esme aside.
And here she was, knocking the front door of Bella's house to be met with the girl at the front door. Esme had deliberately come down when assured Charlie was at work.
"Look, I don't exactly know how to start this." Edward would know by now that Esme had travelled here to tell Bella of Edward's insane plans. "But I need to speak to you. Can we go inside, please?" It was a conversation for Bella's ears alone. "I won't keep you long."
