“Edward!” I called his name suddenly and blushed as I realized that my voice came out much louder than I anticipated. Perhaps it was my own anxiousness or the overwhelming silence that made my voice sound so loud.
“What is it?” Edward asked as he faced me.
“Umm…” I hesitated. How do I say this without it coming out as weird? It’s been a long while since I should have said it. Will he feel bad that I had forgotten?
“…Natalia?” Edward called my name questioningly seeing that I didn’t continue.
I got up and pulled Edward to his feet. I didn’t know why I did this exactly, but I felt like what I was going to say had to be made official and standing up face-to-face made it seemed more official?
“I…I’m sorry I didn’t say this before...” I started in a weak voice. Why is my voice shaking so much?
Edward looked at me silently as he waited for me to continue. I can do this. I need to do this properly.
