That was not to say that Edward listened to much of what others had to say. He was supremely confident in his abilities and it was a very rare occurrence indeed, when he changed his mind or asked for the input of others. His defense mechanism of relying solely on himself and the influence of his grandfather made it next to impossible for him to behave any other way.
"So what we need to decide on next is where to go from here?" Edward finished and sat back in his chair.
No one said anything and Edward looked down to the other end of the table, hoping the all-knowing angel could tell him what the hell was going on.
"Eddie, Eddie, Eddie," Seth tsked with his tongue. "Can you tell me the last time you asked any of them for their input or opinion?"
"Sure it was...well, what I mean is...No, I can't," Edward said with an ashamed shake of his head. "Is that why they're all looking at me like I just broke out into a song and dance routine, naked?"
