This moment is what I had always wished for when I was the peeping tom, and now, after everything I've done spying on her, being rude to her, ignoring her, she invites me in and still wants to be with me. Even in her sleep, she trembled at my touch. I continued to breathe deeply while I hummed her lullaby very quietly in her ear. I held her in my arms and kept my face close to her neck. When Bella first fell asleep, she was quiet.
