WHERE: Juniper's Room/Outside
RATING: PG-13
STATUS: Complete

Juniper was in pain. Physical, mental, emotional...Was there another version? Spiritual? Yeah, she was that too. At least there was so much going through her head that was completely unrelated to what had happened to her that Edward wouldn't get wind of it. Edward. If he found out what had gone on that morning...She didn't want to think about it. He'd be completely uncontrollable. As if she could control him to begin with. But anyway, as it was, all she could think about was how badly her hand hurt, peppered with the occasional flash of irritation at the fact that the object of Edward's desire was in the City now too. Not only did that suck for Juniper, but it was going to suck for the Bella girl as well, because Juniper was definitely not letting her within a hundred meters of Edward. The last thing she wanted to witness was a blood bath, and she didn't want Edward to have to deal with the guilt of that afterward. Not to mention the fact that Jareth would rip him apart...

Anyway, after Edward promised to come over and look at her hand, Juniper tried to get dressed. Tried being the operative word. The attempt at getting the pair of jeans that had been provided on was abandoned, as she couldn't get her fingers to move enough to button them. Thankfully, she found a loose, elastic-wasted peasant skirt in the closet, and so Juniper was able to get that on with one hand, so that was good. A white fitted t-shirt, on the other hand, proved to be too much for her. She couldn't get her injured hand through the arm hole, and so was stuck with her shirt halfway on, cutting across her body in a diagonal line, with one arm and her head in place, but the rest of the fabric stuck on her opposite shoulder. She looked like she'd tried to put on a toga upside down.

Juniper fought with her clothes and then kicked her dresser, which only hurt her toes, again, and then fell face down on her bed and just laid there. She heard Edward's mind approaching and sighed. Fair warning, I'm not completely decent, but I can't change that, so you're just going to have to deal, she warned him, not bothering to get up. Door's unlocked.

"I know you can, but it's faster this way." Edward slid her around to his back and told her to hold on tight before taking off at full speed once he was certain that she was secure. He ran until he reached the forest and darted around until he found a sunny and relatively private spot for them to spend time in. He slowed down gradually to keep from giving her a head rush and then once he was stopped he placed her gently on the ground.

"Don't open until I tell you too," he told her and then stepped a few feet away. Once he was exactly where he wanted to be and bathed in light he unbuttoned his shirt and let it fall to the ground. Might as well let her have the full effect. "Alright you can open them."

Standing there in the middle of a small clearing Edward shimmered as if millions of tiny prisms were reflecting the light of the sun through him. Rainbows scattered across the area and the effect of the pure white light he radiated was damn near blinding to look at but impossible not to.

Juniper let out a partially terrified, partially thrilled scream when he ran off with her in his arms. It was odd, moving at that speed, and knowing she was, but not feeling jostled or anything as Edward ran. He was truly remarkable. She wobbled when he put her down, but caught her balance and kept her hands over her eyes to keep herself from cheating.

"Bugger me..." Juniper breathed after opening her eyes and finding Edward. Not only was he shirtless, but he was shining. Shimmering. Sparkling. Juniper was drawn to him like a moth to a flame, walking in a daze for the second time that day, until she was standing right in front of him.

"You're beautiful," she whispered, reaching up to run her fingertips along his chest. The light coming from him went out in the shadow of her hand, and Juniper shook her head a little bit. "I understand the bit about only coming out at night now," she chuckled quietly. Then she reached up to cup his face with her good hand and went up on her toes to kiss him. She couldn't help it. He was shiny and she was a girl.

Edward was monitoring her thoughts for her reaction as she opened her eyes and what he found there amused him. He opened his arms to her and returned the kiss happily enough. He was happy the effect the sun had on him put her in a better mood. Sure, Edward didn't really enjoy it but Alice and Tanya had never seemed to take issue with it and he could see how a girl might see it. After all they sometimes bought body glitter to try and gain a similar if much more subtle effect.

"So, you're not running away in terror. I take it this pleases you?" He raised an eyebrow at her and smiled crookedly. He gathered her injured hand in his and brought it to his cool lips. "I thought perhaps that it would, hmm, brighten your mood so to speak." He knew he was being cheesy but he was trying to amuse her so he didn't really mind or wince at his silly pun.
