What is chapter fourteen mainly about?

Edward can read minds.

Who else in his family has special abilities?

When Bella learns that Edward has been coming at night to watch her sleep, how does she feel?

In Edward's family, who has been a vampire longest?

In what city and year was Edward born?

Where do most other vampires live?

How did Alice become a vampire?

Bella asks Edward a question about marriage.

What is she really asking?

Look at the section of chapter fourteen where Charlie observes that Bella seems to be in a hurry. He says, "You look kinda keyed up…"

In this context, what does "keyed up" mean?

Look at the section of chapter fourteen where Edward describes his emotions when he first watched Bella sleep. Edward said, "I wrestled all night, watching you sleep, with the chasm between what I knew was right, moral, ethical, and what I wanted."

What does Edward mean by the phrase "the chasm between"?

Were there any events that weren't clear to you?
