We sat like that for another immeasurable moment; I wondered if he could be as unwilling 1 to move as I was. 我们像那样坐着，不知坐了多久。我怀疑他是否不情愿改变姿势，就像我一样。
But I could see the light was fading, the shadows of the forest beginning to touch us, and I sighed. 但我能看到光线黯淡下来了，树林的阴影开始延伸到我们身下。我叹了口气。
"You have to go." “你得走了。”
"I thought you couldn't read my mind." “我以为你不能读我的心。”
"It's getting clearer." I could hear a smile in his voice. “我越来越擅长读你的表情了。”我能听到他声音里的笑意。
He took my shoulders and I looked into his face. 他扶起我的肩膀，我看着他的眼睛。
"Can I show you something?" he asked, sudden excitement flaring 2 in his eyes. “我能向你展示某件事吗？”他问道，某种突如其来的兴奋在他眼里一闪而过。
"Show me what?" “向我展示什么？”
"I'll show you how I travel in the forest." “我会向你展示我是怎样在森林里旅行的。”
He saw my expression. 他看见了我的表情。
"Don't worry, you'll be very safe, and we'll get to your truck much faster." “别担心。你会很安全的，而且我们会更快地到达你的卡车。”
His mouth twitched 3 up into that crooked 4 smile so beautiful my heart nearly stopped. 他的嘴唇弯了起来，那个弯弯的笑容是如此的美丽，我的心跳几乎要停拍了。
"Will you turn into a bat?" I asked warily 5. “你要变成一只蝙蝠吗？”我警惕地问道。
He laughed, louder than I'd ever heard. "Like I haven't heard that one before!" 他大笑起来，甚至比我听过的还有响亮。“好像我之前还没听过这个理论。”
"Right, I'm sure you get that all the time." “没错，我能肯定你始终知道这一点。”
"Come on, little coward, climb on my back." “来吧，胆小鬼，爬到我的背上来。”
I waited to see if he was kidding, but, apparently 6, he meant it. 我等着看他是否在开玩笑，但是，显然，他就是这个意思。
He smiled as he read my hesitation 7, and reached for me. 他看懂了我的表情，然后笑了起来，伸手抓住我。
My heart reacted; even though he couldn't hear my thoughts, my pulse always gave me away. 我的心脏立刻有了反应：尽管他听不到我的想法，我的脉搏总是会出卖我。
He then proceeded to sling 8 me onto his back, with very little effort on my part, 他随即把我扔到了背上，我几乎没怎么费劲。
besides, when in place, clamping my legs and arms so tightly around him that it would choke a normal person. 另外，当我爬上去时，我用胳膊和腿紧紧地钳住了他，如果他是一个普通的人类的话，他一定会窒息的。
