"All right," he whispered, reaching up to brush his fingers along her cheek. "I lov...I love you, Alice. I'd never do anything to hurt you...but I know it...I'll go slow. All right?"
He moved over her again, positioning himself at her entrance. He kissed her softly before he started to push slowly inside her. If he had to, he'd distract her from the pain that he knew would come from the first time. After this, she wouldn't hurt again.
