It was happening again. That ability to completely skip sleep and somehow be fully awake without an ounce of exhaustion. Bella paced up and down in the hotel room, trying to take the edge off. She wrung her hands, trying to keep them from shaking. Despite being in desperate need of a cigarette, she was trying her hardest not to succumb to temptation.
