This is just a collection of one-shots i've spent a lot of time writing about Alice and Jasper. They're so sweet, i love them more than Bella and Edward. I just feel like they have a much deeper, intimate relationship than those two do. Anyway, all of these stories are based off of song titles. Even the title of this "Songs in the Key of Love" is the title of Raheem Devaughns album from a while back. Anywa, i hope you enjoy it.
Twilight and Alice and Jasper belong to Stephanie Meyer. I wish i owned them though. There are so many things i would change...
Why Don't You Kiss Her?
Were the best of friends
And we share our secrets
She knows everything that is on my mind
Lately something's changed
As I lie awake in my bed
A voice here inside my head
Softly says
Alice and Jasper were walking through a park in Philadelphia one night. They'd met only less than a month ago and already they'd grown so close. Her mind was still reeling from finally meeting the man she'd been having visions of for two years. She knew she probably came off a little creepy just coming up to him and saying "You don't know how long I've been waiting for you" without any kind of introduction or anything. But instead of being offended or creeped out he simply tipped his hat and apologized in that sweet southern drawl she'd come to love.
She had told him about her visions about this family called the Cullen's and how they were supposed to meet them. She had asked him if he'd come with her to find them and he agreed just as she'd seen he would. She'd spent the past few days searching for them through visions trying to find out where they were but so far hadn't come to an exact location.
They came to a bench shaded by a tree and sat down under it. They were alone and the only light was from the streets lights, the moon, and the few lanterns lining the paths in the park. She looked up at him and he was immediately lost in her golden eyes.
It still amazed him how much he'd grown attached to Alice in only the few days they'd known each other. For months before he'd met her he'd been wandering alone in his own depression not seeing any more reason for living another day. But she found him. She was always so happy and cheerful and he could feel it radiating off her. It was addicting to be surrounded by so much joy. Her smile brought a smile to his own face. He felt happy with her, he felt whole again, he felt like he could face what any day had to throw at him as long as Alice was by his side.
"The stars are so pretty tonight," Alice said.
"You can see more of them down south," Jasper said.
She looked up at him with interest. "Really? There's more?"
He nodded. "Yeah. Some nights when I was on the field I'd look up at the stars and sometimes they'd make a bad situation seem a whole lot better."
She observed him for a moment. He was still looking up at the sky looking deep in thought. He was so handsome, even more handsome in person than she'd seen before they met. His eyes were crimson; although he'd tried her animal blood diet he still couldn't resist the urge to feed off humans which made his eyes red like most vampires. His wavy blonde hair blew in the breeze and though his many scars were fainter in the dark she could still clearly see them. He told her most vampires got defensive when they saw them. She hadn't. She'd been surprised yes, but it only made her sad because it so clearly displayed all he'd been through which by now she knew the extent of after hearing him tell his story.
She held his hand and he looked down at her. "This is the first time, that I can remember anyway, that I've had someone as close to me as you are."
He gave her a sympathetic smile knowing she remembered nothing of her life before becoming a vampire. "I'm sure you weren't completely alone in your human life Alice."
She hesitated for a moment. "I love you," she said softly. For a moment she wanted to take it back after seeing the surprise on his face. She had seen this moment, but maybe it was wrong. Maybe he didn't feel the same.
He lifted her chin as she started to look away. He could feel the anguish and regret that she felt but he sent his happiness to her shifting her mood. "I love you too. I've never felt the same way about anyone as I feel about you Alice."
His words surprised him. "Oh Jasper." She leaned towards him and their lips met. At first gentle, but they pressed into each other more. Her arms went around his neck and her hands tangled in his hair. His arms were around her waist pulling her tiny body into him. Soon they slowly broke off and looked into each other's eyes. Suddenly she giggled. "This is just how I saw it."
He smiled. "You knew this would happen?"
"Well…I saw it. But a part of me felt like it wouldn't happen that way and you wouldn't feel the same as I do."
"When you love someone you've got to put your heart on the line. It's all worth it when the person you love feels the same way."
She ran her fingers gently through his hair. "I love you Jasper Whitlock."
"I love you too Alice."
Why don't you kiss her
Why don't you tell her
Why don't you let her see
The feelings that you hide
She'll never know
If you never show
The way you feel inside
This first song is "Why Don't You Kiss Her?" by Jesse McCartney. I know it's sung from the guy's perspective but it's meant to go both ways here.
