Holding Out For You, Ch 46

Their last day at the hotel was beautifully crafted. There was the perfect blend of passion, activity, talking, and just easing into their future together. I loved the scene in the bathtub when they are talking about children, and his whisper about how he can already picture her pregnant with his child. ::sigh:: The gift was perfect, and Edward was so thoughtful to include all of the children in on it.

As we already discussed, I guessed when he white knuckled on the way to the wedding, that they were passing the spot where the accident occurred, and there might be some issue when they passed it again. I never imagined it would be to the extent that you wrote it, which was a heart wrenching surprise. It is not surprising though that he would be overwhelmed in passing that spot. Since they did on the way to the wedding, Edward has declared his love for Bella & talked about making a new life/family with her. I am sure the guilt of "moving on" mixed with the guilt that he still feels for the accident, overwhelmed him in that moment. I think he realized in that moment that he really was saying good-bye to Tanya. That feeling would cripple anyone.
