Alice was already off the couch, phone in hand, dialing. I stared at the precise rendering of my mother's family room. Uncharacteristically, Jasper slid closer to me.
愛麗絲早已從沙發上跳起來，手里抓著手機，開始撥號。我盯著對我媽媽家的房間的精準無比的素描。賈斯帕一反常態地滑到我身旁更近的地方。
He lightly touched his hand to my shoulder, and the physical contact seemed to make his calming influence stronger. The panic stayed dull, unfocused.
他輕輕地把手放到我鑒賞，而這實際上的接觸似乎把他的冷靜更加強烈地輸送到我身上?？謶致o目的地凝聚在原處。
Alice's lips were trembling with the speed of her words, the low buzzing impossible to decipher. I couldn't concentrate.
愛麗絲的嘴唇顫抖著，飛快地說著話，我根本聽不懂那低低的嗡嗡聲。我沒法集中注意力。
"Bella," Alice said. I looked at her numbly.
“貝拉?！睈埯惤z說道。我木然地看著她。
"Bella, Edward is coming to get you. He and Emmett and Carlisle are going to take you somewhere, to hide you for a while."
“貝拉，愛德華會來接你。他和艾美特還有卡萊爾會來帶你去某個地方，讓你躲上一陣子。”
"Edward is coming?" The words were like a life vest, holding my head above the flood.
“愛德華要來？”這句話像一件救生衣，把我的腦子從滾滾洪流里拉了出來。
"Yes, he's catching the first flight out of Seattle. We'll meet him at the airport, and you'll leave with him."
“是的，他將搭乘從西雅圖起飛的第一班機。我們會在機場和他碰面，然后你跟他走。”
"But, my mother… he came here for my mother, Alice!" Despite Jasper, the hysteria bubbled up in my voice.
“可是，我媽媽……他來這里找我媽媽，愛麗絲！”盡管有賈斯帕在，我的聲音依然因為竭斯底里而崩潰著。
"Jasper and I will stay till she's safe."
“賈斯帕和我會留在這里，直到她安全無虞為止?！?/div>
"I can't win, Alice. You can't guard everyone I know forever. Don't you see what he's doing? He's not tracking me at all.
“我逃不掉的，愛麗絲。你們不可能一直守衛著我認識的每一個人。你看不出來他在做什么嗎？他根本沒在跟蹤我。
He'll find someone, he'll hurt someone I love… Alice, I can't —"
他會找到某個人，他會傷害我愛著的某個人……愛麗絲，我不能——”
"We'll catch him, Bella," she assured me.
“我們會看著他的，貝拉。”她向我保證道。
"And what if you get hurt, Alice? Do you think that's okay with me? Do you think it's only my human family he can hurt me with?"
“萬一你受傷了呢，愛麗絲？你以為這對我來說不痛不癢嗎？你以為他只能通過傷害我的人類家庭來打擊我嗎？”
Alice looked meaningfully at Jasper. A deep, heavy fog of lethargy washed over me, and my eyes closed without my permission.
愛麗絲意味深長地看著賈斯帕。一陣強烈的，沉重的，令人昏昏欲睡的迷霧席卷了我，我的眼睛在未經我許可的情況下合上了。
My mind struggled against the fog, realizing what was happening. I forced my eyes open and stood up, stepping away from Jasper's hand.
我的意識竭力抵御著那陣迷霧，意識到發生了什么事。我強迫自己睜開眼睛，站起來，掙脫賈斯帕的手走到一旁。
"I don't want to go back to sleep," I snapped.
“我不想繼續睡?！蔽胰氯碌?。
I walked to my room and shut the door, slammed it really, so I could be free to go to pieces privately. This time Alice didn't follow me.
我走回房間，用力關上門。我是真的砰地一聲把門撞上的，這樣我就能隨意行事，保留僅有的一點隱私。這次愛麗絲沒有跟著我進來。
