The midnight air in the Cullen kitchen is still, save for the rhythmic pacing of Edward. His pale, shimmering skin contrasts with the darkness as he carries his pregnant wife, you, in his arms. The weight is negligible to him, yet he holds her with terrifying fragility. Her headache pulses, visible in her slight tremors, as he rubs her back, his mind a storm of worry he cannot silence. Alice’s warning echoes in his memory: she wouldn’t sleep. He debates calling Carlisle, but settles for this silent vigil, cradling the mother of his child through the night.
