Juniper was pissed. In almost every sense of the word. She was angry, no livid at Edward, both for feeling that he had the right to be angry with her for an errant thought, and for the fact that she now sported ten finger-shaped bruises on each arm. She was angry with herself for even having the thought to begin with, because really, it was ridiculous at best, suicidal at worst. And she was drunk. Drunkity-drunk-drunk. The one good thing about the Ren Faire, Juniper had discovered, once she realised that she was locked out of her room, not having remembered to grab her key as she'd stormed out, was that they had some truly wonderful wine. And she'd sampled more than her fair share of it.

And so now, drunk and wet in the dark, and locked out of her room, Juniper was wandering. She wasn't really looking for Edward, but when she heard his mind nearby, her anger redoubled. He was such a twat. She didn't want to see him, but at the same time, she wasn't really done yelling at him yet. Maybe she'd get eaten by a bear or something on her way over there.

No such luck. Standing at the base of the tree Edward was hiding in, Juniper glared up at the dark, unable to see her boyfriend, but knowing he was there anyway. "You're an asshole!" she hollered at him, and then took another swig off the bottle she carried. "If you don't want me, just fucking say it, because I'm not stupid enough to think that this is just about a bloody thought!"

Edward felt a little better at her promise, so he offered a timid smile and pulled her tighter to his side.

He frowned slightly at her refusal to show him. "It must be painful, oh, Juniper I'm so sorry . . . I was trying to keep from hurting you worse. You were so close and I was so angry . . . " he looked down, ashamed of himself beyond words. He'd been taught to treat women better than that. He was really terrible if he could be so careless with a girl he loved. He was never going to make up for hurting her like that. Not if he lived a hundred thousand years.

He glanced up and nodded once they finally got inside and hesitated before sitting next to her. "We're really alright, assuming of course you're not furious with me."

Juniper smiled and squeezed his hand. "I've had worse." She didn't know if it would make him feel better or worse to see, she just didn't want Carlisle seeing. "You kept me safe," she reminded him, giving him a little smile. "If I would have known how angry you were, I wouldn't have gotten in your face like that. You just...shut down. It was terrifying," she admitted. "I thought that I'd broken you or something. I was just trying to wake you up."

"Oh, I'm livid," she assured him with mock seriousness, smiling a little.

Then she picked at her nails. "Can I kiss you?" she asked quietly, not looking at him, and hating the feeling that she did need to ask. "Nothing over the top just..." she laughed a little, weakly. "I feel like we should kiss and make up or something."

"I was afraid to move. I've never felt anger like that. Part betrayal, part . . . hmm. Almost jealousy." He shook his head. "I'm not sure I entirely understand it myself. I'm so sorry. My behavior was abysmal. I'm very ashamed of myself right now, I usually have much better control. Only you can push me over the edge."

He smiled at her request and laid his hand on hers. "I would like that very much." He offered a small, uncertain smile and then reached up to touch her cheek. "I still love you, you know. Nothing's changed that. You don't have to ask my permission to touch me. I still belong to you alone."
