".. What would be the use in that?" I frown  .

"There doesn't have to be use for everything, Edward," I sigh, rolling on my side, my back to him. "Forget it, I just thought it make me feel better, feel ... safe," I mumble, hugging the sheets to my chest.

"Why do you feel unsafe? We are perfectly safe here."

I shake my head, sometimes I wonder why I bother with him at all. He's such hard work. "I had a bad dream, that's all, forget I said anything,"

... stupid woman.
I frown and head out again, back to my own room. There's just no pleasing her.

I sigh, wishing he had stayed, wishing he could understand me just a little bit. It would've been nice to have his strong arms around me for once, or anyones arms for that matter. I was alone and shaken by my dream.
I couldn't sleep now, I probably wouldn't sleep again all night. I pulled on my silk robe and took the lamp out into the small room between the bedrooms.
I sat in my high backed chair and took my book off the side table. I could read well enough to get by, my parents had seen to that, but I still couldn't read as well as Edward. But it was still nice to escape one in a while, to a world where women had husbands that would actually touch them, or pass a pleasant word.

I wake up in the early morning, it's still dark outside, and the children are still sleeping. But I become restless, sitting up a little, blinking into the darkness.

I lay awake, and have done most of the night. My eyes are shut, resting, as I stay in the one comfortable position I've found on this uncomfortable couch. I hear movement from the bed.
"What's wrong?" I mumble, tiredly, not sure if it's Elisabeth or one of the children.

I blink a little, looking over to him in the dark.. "Nothing. I just can't sleep anymore."

"Mm" I groan, sitting up and stretching my back. "It's still dark," I mumble, glancing at the window. I hadnt realised how early it still was, laying with my eyes shut for hours, the time had gone so slowly.
