Edward wrapped her hand in his as she grasped his hand. Her touch was comforting and he missed it. Bella was his entire life and ever since she had ended their relationship, it felt like a part of him was missing just as it had when he had left her after the incident with Jasper.
Edward smiled his crooked smile and nodded at her request. He was happy to stay and he couldn't help but hope that her request for him to stay was a good sign.
Climbing into her bed, he stretched out beside her, gathering her gently in his arms and pulling her close, keeping the blankets wrapped around her so she wouldn't get cold.
"How have you been Bella? How are your classes? I hope your text book hasn't tried to bite you again."
He would resist the urge to shred the offending text book.
