He extends his hand for a handshake and I stare at it. It seems clean, and I don’t have an immediate repulsion by it, but something keeps me from moving to accept it.
“Does this make you uncomfortable Bella?”
“Yes.” I force eye contact, his grey irises warm with understanding.
“Why? Do you worry about the germs on my hand?”
“No. Sort of. I don’t touch people. Or I haven’t much in a long time. It doesn’t feel right.”
His eyes narrow at me and I know I’m not making any sense. “I’d like you to try. Can you do that?”
Swallowing hard I think of Rose and I close my eyes. My hand lifts and I can almost feel the energy around his hand close to mine. My hand is tingling again and I don’t like it. I always make a point to steer clear of physical contact. I don’t want any kind of bond in that form, I can’t bare it. But before I can retract my arm Edward’s hand slips into mine and grasps lightly. I gasp, the tingling buzzes intensely, spreading into my arm.
My eyes fly open and Edward is staring at our connected hands. “What is your level?” He mumbles.
“Eight,” I say without hesitation. My chest is tightening and I don’t want him touching me anymore.
He lets go and I gasp out another breath, my hand bracing against my chest.
He looks to me again, judging my response and then supplying me a soft nod. “We will work on that.”
