I actually think the second pic is from the "Jessica in the road sequence"--like maybe he hears her car coming, and is struggling with whether or not to play redhot roadkill (that you'd be willing to die to give mouth-to-mouth to) or find some other way to get a 98.6 people-soup meal for Rose. Possibly he's already done the deed (saving the best parts for Rose), hears a car (containing someone he knows wink-wink-nudge-nudge) and is afraid of getting caught imbibing in something other than a bloodbagjuicebox, even if it's for a good reason. At any rate, I voted for the lovestruck pic--it's getting harder for him to flip the switch in Elena's presence, and the fireworks are amazing when he opts for fight versus flight! Don't get me wrong, We Wuv Wicked Woobie, too but the second pic doesn't have that predator panache! It's more like hand caught in the cookie jar!
