我们开到了查理的房子前。灯亮着，我的卡车还在老地方，一切完全正常。就好像从梦里醒来一样。他把车停下来，但我没动。
"Do you promise to be there tomorrow?"
“你保证明天在那里?”
"I promise."
“我保证。”
I considered that for a moment, then nodded. I pulled his jacket off, taking one last whiff.
我思索了片刻，然后点了点头。我把夹克脱下来，吸了最后一口香气。
"You can keep it — you don't have a jacket for tomorrow," he reminded me.
“你可以留着它——你明天可没有夹克可穿。”他提醒我。
I handed it back to him. "I don't want to have to explain to Charlie."
我把它递还给他。“我可不想被迫向查理解释。”
"Oh, right." He grinned.
“哦，好吧。”他咧嘴一笑。
I hesitated, my hand on the door handle, trying to prolong the moment.
我迟疑着，把手放到门柄上，努力拖延着动作。
"Bella?" he asked in a different tone — serious, but hesitant.
“贝拉?”他用一种不同寻常的语气问道——严肃，但犹豫。
"Yes?" I turned back to him too eagerly.
“嗯?”我太过热切地回过头去看着他。
"Will you promise me something?"
“你能向我保证一件事吗?”
"Yes," I said, and instantly regretted my unconditional agreement. What if he asked me to stayaway from him? I couldn't keep that promise.
“好的。”我刚说完，立刻为自己这个太过绝对的同意后悔了。假设他要我远离他呢?我没法信守那样的承诺。
"Don't go into the woods alone."
“别再独自一人走到森林里去。”
I stared at him in blank confusion. "Why?"
我完全摸不着头脑，困惑地看着他：“为什么?”
He frowned, and his eyes were tight as he stared past me out the window.
他皱起眉，当他的目光越过我看向窗外时，眼神紧绷着。
"I'm not always the most dangerous thing out there. Let's leave it at that."
“在那里我不总是最危险的生物。让我们离它远远的。”
I shuddered slightly at the sudden bleakness in his voice, but I was relieved. This, at least,was an easy promise to honor. "Whatever you say."
他声音里的阴郁让我微微颤抖着，但我还是很宽慰。至少，这是个容易遵守的承诺。“如你所愿。”
