“好的。”我同意了。
I went to the kitchen and fell, exhausted, into achair. I was really feeling dizzy now. I wondered if Iwas going to go into shock after all. Get a grip, I toldmyself.
我走进厨房，精疲力竭地坐进一张椅子里。现在我真的觉得头晕目眩起来。我想知道是不是直到现在我才开始震惊得要休克过去。振作起来，我告诉自己。
The phone rang suddenly, startling me. I yanked it off the hook.
电话忽然响了起来，把我吓了一跳。我把听筒从座机上拉下来。
"Hello?" I asked breathlessly.
“你好?”我屏住呼吸，问道。
"Bella?"
“贝拉?”
"Hey, Jess, I was just going to call you."
“嘿，杰西，我正要打电话给你。”
"You made it home?" Her voice was relieved… and surprised.
“你到家了?”她的声音听起来很宽慰……也很惊讶。
"Yes. I left my jacket in your car — could you bring it to me tomorrow?"
“是的。我把夹克落在你车上了——你明天能带给我吗?”
"Sure. But tell me what happened!" she demanded.
“当然，但要告诉我发生了什么事!”她要求道。
"Um, tomorrow — in Trig, okay?"
“呃，明天吧——三角函数课上，好吗?”
She caught on quickly. "Oh, is your dad there?"
她立刻领会过来。“哦，你爸在那里?”
"Yes, that's right."
“是的，没错。”
"Okay, I'll talk to you tomorrow, then. Bye!" I could hear the impatience in her voice.
“好的，我明天拿给你，那么，再见!”我能听出她声音里的急不可耐。
"Bye, Jess."
“再见，杰西。”
I walked up the stairs slowly, a heavy stupor clouding my mind. I went through the motions ofgetting ready for bed without paying any attention to what I was doing. It wasn't until I was inthe shower — the water too hot, burning my skin — that I realized I was freezing. I shudderedviolently for several minutes before the steaming spray could finally relax my rigid muscles.Then I stood in the shower, too tired to move, until the hot water began to run out.
我慢慢地走上楼，一种沉重的麻木感笼罩着我的头脑。我把睡觉前的准备工作流程过了一遍，却完全没有注意到自己在做什么。直到我淋浴的时候——水太烫了，灼痛了我的肌肤——我才意识到自己快冻僵了。我剧烈地颤抖了好几分钟，直到喷洒下来的水雾最终让我紧绷的肌肉放松下来。而后我站在喷头下，累得根本不想动，直到热水快要用完为止。
I stumbled out, wrapping myself securely in a towel, trying to hold the heat from the water in sothe aching shivers wouldn't return. I dressed for bed swiftly and climbed under my quilt,curling into a ball, hugging myself to keep warm. A few small shudders trembled through me.
我跌跌绊绊地走出来，安心地用浴巾把自己包裹起来，试图把热水带来的热度保留住，这样那种痛苦的颤抖就不会再发生了。我飞快地穿上睡衣，钻到被子底下，蜷缩成球状，紧紧地抱住自己，好让自己暖和些。一阵轻微的颤栗传遍了我的全身。
My mind still swirled dizzily, full of images I couldn't understand, and some I fought torepress. Nothing seemed clear at first, but as I fell gradually closer to unconsciousness, a fewcertainties became evident.
我的大脑依然让人头晕眼花地旋转着，充斥着我无法理解的画面，还有一些我挣扎着不去看的画面。一开始根本什么也看不清，但当我渐渐失去意识地时候，几张特定的画面清晰起来。
About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there waspart of him — and I didn't know how potent that part might be — that thirsted for my blood.And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
有三件事我非常肯定。第一，爱德华是个吸血鬼。第二，他的某一部分——我不知道这一部分能起的效力有多大——在渴望着我的鲜血。第三，我毫无保留，无可救药地爱上了他。
