Edward's eyes stayed closed, but a wide grin flashed across his face. 爱德华的眼睛依然闭着，但一个大大的咧嘴一笑在他脸上一闪而过。

　　A nurse came bustling in then to check all my tubes and wires. My mother kissed my forehead, patted my gauze-wrapped hand, and left. 一个护士匆匆忙忙地走进来，检查了我身上所有的软管和电线。我妈妈亲吻了我的前额，轻拍了一下裹着纱布的手，然后离开了。

　　The nurse was checking the paper readout on my heart monitor. 那个护士正在检查我的心电监护仪所打印出来的纸条。

　　"Are you feeling anxious, honey? Your heart rate got a little high there." “你感觉很不安吗，甜心？你的心率在这个点上有点儿高。”

　　"I'm fine," I assured her. “我很好。”我向她保证道。

　　"I'll tell your RN that you're awake. She'll be in to see you in a minute." “我会告诉你的注册护士你醒了。她会在一分钟之内过来看你的。”

　　As soon as she closed the door, Edward was at my side. 一等她关上门，爱德华立刻出现在了我床边。

　　"You stole a car?" I raised my eyebrows. “你偷了一辆车？”我扬起眉毛。

　　He smiled, unrepentant. "It was a good car, very fast." 他微笑着，没有半点悔改的意思。“那是辆好车，非常快。”

　　"How was your nap?" I asked. “你的小睡怎么样？”我问道。

　　"Interesting." His eyes narrowed. “非常有趣。”他眯起眼睛。

　　"What?" “什么？”

　　He looked down while he answered. "I'm surprised. I thought Florida… and your mother… well, I thought that's what you would want." 他垂下头去，答道：“我很惊讶。我以为佛罗里达……还有你妈妈……好吧，我以为那正是你想要的。”

　　I stared at him uncomprehendingly. "But you'd be stuck inside all day in Florida. You'd only be able to come out at night, just like a real vampire." 我无法理解地盯着他。“可你在佛罗里达得终日困住屋里。你只能在夜里外号粗，就像一个真正的吸血鬼一样。”

　　He almost smiled, but not quite. And then his face was grave. "I would stay in Forks, Bella. Or somewhere like it," he explained. "Someplace where I couldn't hurt you anymore."  他几乎要微笑起来了，但最终没有笑。然后他的脸黯淡下来。“我会待在福克斯，贝拉。或者某个类似于福克斯的地方。”他解释道。“某个我不会再伤害到你的地方。”
