Bracing myself, I take a deep breath before opening the door and stepping out. I force myself to stay calm, to not let him see the turmoil I feel.
He starts talking rapidly, words spilling from his lips, but I don't hear them. I can't.
Not yet.
Holding up my hand, I interrupt. "Not now, Edward. I have to get back to work, and so do you."
I flinch at the look of hurt in his eyes as he says, "But... Jasper, please!"
Shaking my head, I turn and walk away.
Glancing over my shoulder, I mutter, "After work... maybe."
