Edward ran through the village, ignoring the humans' odd expressions as he passed. Most of them would think it was simply the wind, their eyes unable to see him due to his speed. Some of them might figure it out, but he didn't care. He just needed to see her and make sure she was okay

Estelle barely saw him coming to her side, but as soon as she felt his cold, strong arms around her, she threw her arms around his waist, breathing deeply, as if to imprint his scent in her mind. She fought the urge to cry again, not wanting to shed tears anymore.
Her conversation with Judith had given her some light on how Flynn felt in this world. She suddenly felt guilty for not being there for him while he was struggling with adapting here. She had been too busy being a selfish princess to see him suffer. Hugging the vampire tighter, she promised herself to be a better friends to her companions now.
It took Estelle a moment to realize that Edward was humming and she listened intently, mesmerized by the beauty of the melody. Loosening her hold on his waist but still nestled in his arms, she looked up at him:
He looked up at the sound of her voice, finally seeing her face for the first time that evening. His fingertips moved to trace the dried up tear tracks on her face, the barest of touches. He hated that she'd been crying, and he could tell by the look in her eyes that she was close to doing it again.
"It's a song I composed with you in mind... I suppose you could call it your song." He paused. "I haven't exactly titled it yet... it's just... When we first met in person, there was something about you I couldn't get out of my mind... and this tune just came to me. I wanted to capture your smile in song..."
Feeling the cold touch of his fingers on her cheeks, Estelle was reminded of her dried tears. She reached up to wipe them, not wanting to bother Edward with her sorrow more than she should. Twice now he had come in a heartbeat when she had been left behind by friends and she didn't want him to think that all she could do these days was to cry. She wanted to feel calm and happy with him like when they had stargaze in the meadow. Or feel content, whole again like when they had shared their first kiss, not so long ago it seemed.
She blinked in surprise as the vampire told her from where the sweet melody was coming from. She was amazed that she could inspire such a beautiful tune. There was no words that could described how the knowledge of it made her feel; flattered was too weak for it. Something warm swelled in her chest and she looked at his gold eyes with adoration, her honest smile brightening her eyes.
"I....I inspired you?....Will you play it for me?"
