Clipped Wings and Inked Armor, Ch. 40
I loved their ink! Not only does Edward want to caress the symbol of her pain with strokes of optimism and hope, but he puts her likeness on his forever. On the surface it seems like a very claim her type of act, but really, it is putting her claim on HIM on his skin.
It is one thing living with the pain of something traumatic year after year by suppression. You aren't really living with it. It is just there. Now Edward is living with his emotions on the surface. He has to face them. Feel them. He is lucky that Bella loves him as much as she does. Though their commitment I believe is as deep as those with rings on their fingers, and they haven't said the vows, this is the promise you make when you say for ever. You stay through "the worst".
