Connor
Edward finally smiled as he looked at my plant in the corner of the room. I didn't know if he was happy or upset. Possibly both. Maybe because he told me to let it go but how could I when I could tell it meant a lot to him.
I knew Edward well enough now to know when he said no it meant yes. He just wasn't too keen about having difficult discussions. Not that I was either but I was trying to open up to the idea of communication for the sake of our relationship.
I didn't want to make mistakes. I didn't want to end up like dad, just cold and angry. Unable to tell people how I felt and just lashing out when I couldn't describe how I felt. I wanted Edward and I to stop sweeping things under the rug and actually talk for once.
Even if it was uncomfortable. We'd make it work.
"Are you happy or upset?" I ran my fingers through his hair as he stared at my clothes in the closet some more. "It took a lot of work therefore I'm not taking them out."
