[The Twilight Saga·Carlyle] Hidden God

Perhaps because of the overeating, the boy fell asleep almost as soon as he touched the pillow. ——even the noise downstairs didn't affect him in the slightest.

In the dream, he became a wizard. —Wearing a pure black cloak and a pair of cowhide boots of the same color, wearing a pointed hat, and holding a slender wand in his hand.

Together with a silver-white unicorn, he walked through the misty wasteland, and finally arrived at an unusually majestic royal city, where he was warmly received by the residents.

It was a good dream, but I can't remember the exact details.

Edmund yawned and rubbed his short black hair that had been slept in like a chicken coop, then turned his head and looked out the window——

He remembered that he didn't draw the curtains before going to bed, but at this time, they were hanging flat in front of the window, blocking the outside world tightly.

It appeared that Carlisle had come while he was asleep. ——helped him draw the curtains and cover the quilt.

Edmund sleeps quite dishonestly and always likes to roll around. ——If he happens to sleep unsteadily one day, he is very likely to roll off the 7-foot-wide (note: about 2.1 meters) bed.

Carlisle had seen such a scene.

One night in the middle of the night, he was sitting in his study reading a book on psychology after finishing all kinds of work, when he suddenly heard a "boom" from the next room, as if something had fallen to the ground.

So, after the parent opened the door of the bedroom, he saw the sleepy boy rubbing his head slowly getting up from the ground.

Carlisle couldn't laugh or cry. ——How many times has he rolled over on such a big bed?

The result after this incident was: the next day, there were a few soft carpets around the bed.

But can this stop Edmund from rolling around?Carlisle felt he was dead wrong.

On the third day after the carpet was laid, Carlisle heard a "boom" again. ——Walking into the room, I realized that the boy rolled so quickly that he hit the dark headboard of the bed with his body turned sideways, and his head was knocked out.

So after that, Carlisle got into the habit of going around the room now and then. —Of course, he would choose to stay in the bedroom most of the time.

It's not so much reading as watching boys sleep.

It's just that the latter didn't know about it.

Edmund patted his cheek, then turned over to get the alarm clock that was placed on the bedside table.

The blue sword-shaped hour hand is steadily pointing to the "10" position.

"Oops!"

The boy let out a cry of surprise, quickly lifted the quilt with his right hand, and quickly unscrewed the doorknob in light blue pajamas with bare feet, and ran down while calling Carlisle's name.

During the period, I almost rolled down the stairs because I was too impatient. —if Carlisle hadn't appeared before him in time.

"Hey! Slow down, little brother!—Carlisle won't fly away!" Emmett's voice came from the other side of the sofa, but Edmund ignored him.

"Why didn't you call me?" The boy smacked his lips and asked the handsome blond vampire with some dissatisfaction.

"Because you slept soundly, so I don't want to disturb you. Don't worry, the gift is still there." Carlisle grabbed the boy's armpit and picked him up from the cold floor and sat on his arm, "Why? No shoes?"

"Oh! I'm sorry, I forgot!" Edmund scratched the tip of his nose, and looked over Carlisle's shoulder at Kate who was smiling at him.It seemed impolite to realize half a second later that I was running out in pajamas, bare feet and bird's nest hair.Fortunately, the other party did not dislike him because of this.

"Good morning, boys."

"Good morning, Kate," the boy responded, a little embarrassed. ——His hands reached out to the top of his head unconsciously, trying to smooth out the hair that was strangling in all directions, but it didn't seem to have any effect. "Umm—I'm so sorry. I forgot you were still here..."

"It's okay, boy. I think Esme is right, the baby just woke up is so cute." Kate still kept her perfect smile, "Oh, yes. - we are leaving now. You You can go back and sleep for a while."

"Go? Where to go?"

"Go home.—we don't want to be out of the estate for too long."

Edmund looked at Carlisle suspiciously, and the latter raised his hand and patted him on the back.

"Hmm - well. We'll see each other again, won't we?"

"Of course, Edmund." Kate waved at him, said goodbye to the Karen and walked out of the living room first. — Carmen, followed by Irina and Elisa.

"Wait, Tanya!" The boy, who suddenly remembered that he still had something to do, broke free from Carlisle's arms, and ran barefoot to the blond vampire who was bidding farewell to Edward.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Tanya asked suspiciously.

"Can you tell me your contact information?" Edmund said quickly. ——If possible, he didn't want to say this in front of the whole family. "Anything.—I, well, I want to talk to you."

Edward showed a surprised expression when he heard the words, and then quickly looked in the direction of Carlisle.The two exchanged a glance and then looked at Tanya together.

"Of course, Edmund.—I'd love to chat with you."

——————————————————————————————————————————————————— —————————————————————————————————

Edmund, who got Tanya's email address, ran up the stairs with bare feet, opened the door and returned to the room.

The next second, Carlisle followed him in.

"Ed."

"Huh?" The boy responded hastily, then took out his socks from the drawer and put them on quickly.

"What do you want to tell Tanya?" Carlisle asked.

"Why don't you ask Edward? He should know."

"I want you to tell me yourself." Carlisle grabbed the boy's wrist before he walked out of the room.

"Look at me, Ed."

Those beautiful golden eyes were fixed on the boy's face.

The allure of a blonde vampire is simply irresistible. ——It was just that after being stared at by those pupils that were as dazzling as the sun for less than five seconds, Edmund surrendered without any resistance.

"I think she likes Edward. But it seems a bit impolite to ask directly, so I went to ask for contact information." The boy said in a low voice. "I think they're a good match."

"...So it's because of this." Carlisle nodded, "I think your hope may have been lost. ——As far as I know, Tanya confessed to Edward a long time ago, but unfortunately, Edward is She doesn't feel like anything other than a friend."

"What?!" Edmund's eyes widened. "Edward once rejected Tanya?! Why?! I think she is already perfect!"

"I think you have to ask the person concerned about this." Carlisle showed a faint smile, "I can't comment on it. Because I'm not Edward."

"...Edward is too picky." The boy couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and spit out the next words without even thinking: "No wonder he is still single after living for more than 100 years."

"...What about me?" Carlisle, who has lived for more than 300 years and is still single, asked helplessly.

"Cough... this—"

"Vampires are not human beings, Ed.—You can't judge us with human cognition." Carlisle pulled the boy closer to him, bowed his head slightly, and looked tenderly at the other's eyes that still had a trace of moisture .

"I'm a little confused."

"Take a partner as an example. Humans may fall in love with many people in their lifetime, and may marry many times. But vampires are different. Our world is small. No matter how long we live, our hearts can only hold A person, as long as he falls in love, will never change again. For vampires, the partner is the soul of their other half. So there will never be such a saying of "trying to date" in our cognition, this It is a blasphemy against oneself and the other party."

"I see." Edmund nodded thoughtfully. "Well, this is indeed a serious matter... so how on earth are you going to choose a partner? Well—if you don't try to date?"

"Based on feeling," Carlisle replied.

"Only by feeling?" The boy showed an expression of disbelief.In his view this explanation is very vague and incomprehensible. "What kind of feeling is that?"

The handsome vampire parent rubbed Edmund's stunned hair and didn't speak. —he felt it was a little too soon to tell the boy such things.And if he did, Edmund would surely ask why he felt so familiar if he was single.At that time, even he will have no way to smooth things over, so just choose to remain silent.

Well, the child is too smart, and being a "father" sometimes finds it difficult.

Edmund, who had just woken up so his head was as numb as a wooden man, tilted his head and waited in doubt for a long time before realizing that his question seemed a bit too difficult for others.

"Oh! That's right!—Almost forgot that you are still single now." The boy stuck out his tongue and held Carlisle's fingertips, "Maybe I should ask Jasper and Alice?—No Emmett, he's only going to play tricks on me."

"Good idea. But now we have more important things.—Don't you want to help me open presents?" Carlisle said with a smile.
