Author's note: Hey guys. This is my first fanfic so hopefully you all like it! Please read and review :) I don't own anything. It's all Stephenie Meyer's :)
The wedding was almost here. Everyone was getting excited, especially Alice. She hasn't been able to throw a party since graduation and she loves to plan her parties. Edward and Bella were to be married in five days. The house has been very busy lately. We were giving Bella the wedding of her dreams, or shall I say Alice's version. Bella didn't mind though she wants to make everyone happy, even though she feels unworthy of all the attention. Her emotional levels have been all over the place, so I try to throw waves of calm and relaxation her way when I could. I tried to stay out of the way and keep everyone from losing their mind in the process.
"Jasper!" Carlisle called over to me. I was just lounging around trying to stay out of the way. Alice was starting to get things delivered to the house.
"Hey Carlisle"
"I need you to do me a favor and pick something up for me in Wyoming." I looked at him quizzically.
"Yes, Wyoming, could you do it for me?" He pleaded with his eyes.
"Sure," I answered. I wasn't sure what I was picking up but I agreed anyways.
"Thank you Jasper! Esme wants me here and won't let me leave but I need this retrieved before the wedding starts."
"Don't worry; I will be happy to do it for you. It will allow me to not have to feel everyone else's craziness for a day or so!" I laughed as he gave me instructions and directions to the jewelry shop I was headed to.
I went to go pack and Alice came up to see what was going on. I told her that I had an errand to run for Carlisle and that I would be back in a couple days.
"I don't want you to go, but hurry back to me Jazzy" Alice said pouting as I was leaving.
"I'll miss you too sweetheart. I will be back before you know it. Besides you will be busy with the wedding and Bella. I will call you when I get there. I love you" I replied, before giving her a kiss and climbing in the car.
The afternoon was rainy but I enjoyed getting away from the wedding craze. I made it to Wyoming by 11 the next morning. I looked for the jewelry shop Carlisle spoke of. I finally found it and retrieved his gift for Bella. He wouldn't tell me what it was but I recognized the shop. He made all our jewelry with the Cullen crest on it. I wonder what the pieced looked like but it should be opened by Bella first. We were excited for her to join our family. I started on my way back, although I knew I wasn't expected back for another day. I told everyone I would be back by Thursday. It was only Tuesday but I knew I could make it back by tomorrow same time. I had to make sure that I wouldn't get in traffic violations so I gave myself plenty of time to get there and back. I was missing Alice but I had talked to her and said that I was enjoying my little road trip. I decided to go on a hunting trip somewhere along the way back since I was still nervous to be among crowds but it was getting easier day by day. Seeing how it was a wedding, I'm sure Bella would be grateful if I didn't lose control.
I hunted for the afternoon but I got my fill and decided to head home early anyways. I'm sure everyone would be surprised and happy to see me again. Although I enjoyed the solitude of my own emotions, I missed everyone and didn't see the point of dragging out the trip any longer. I sped back and made it back Wednesday morning, as I parked by the garage but noticed only Alice and Edward's cars were here. I assumed everyone must be out doing last-minute wedding stuff or just getting out of the girls' way. I didn't mind, although it was hard to keep changing my mind so I can surprise everyone. Sometimes Alice's gifts were hard to get around; however, I have been able to surprise her from time to time.
I expected to walk into a nice, empty, quiet house. It would be nice to have a few moments' rests because it would be nice to enjoy my relaxed mood before the stress of everyone else's moods affected me. As I entered the house, I noticed that there was music playing up above. I guess the ladies went out to do the last-minute wedding stuff and Edward was here relaxing and enjoying his time alone. I was excited my brother was finally getting married. We have all been waiting for this day. I tried to keep my thoughts at a minimum so I wouldn't disturb him. As I was walking past his room, I noticed his door was open and I glanced in. I was horrified at what I was witnessing. I ran out of the house and climbed back in my car and left as fast as I could! As I was driving I was trying to process what I saw in Edward's bedroom. I couldn't believe what I saw; it had to be a mistake. Alice wouldn't do this to me or her best friend. Edward was my brother, she couldn't, it was impossible. I couldn't get those few moments images out of my head. Alice wrapped around Edward, naked, oblivious to the world. They didn't even hear me come in or acknowledge my presence. How could Alice do this to me?
I didn't know what to do with what I walked in on. I wanted to go back and rip them to shreds but how was I going to break this to Bella. She was devastated when Edward left her last fall. He told her he didn't love her and she believed him. Later he admitted it was a lie, but was it? Did he actually tell her the truth? How long has this affair been going on? Alice, my wife, how? I drove aimlessly around trying to figure out how to take care of this situation. I decided to stay in Seattle for the night. I needed to figure out how to tell Bella without breaking her completely. I knew I would survive through this but would she? Where was I going to go though? I couldn't stay with my family with both Alice and Edward there. Maybe I would tell them I can't take their "diet" anymore or maybe I wanted to go see some old friends of mine. I decided to just think about things in my hotel room. I would figure things out when I get home tomorrow and the family is there, after all they were expecting me back then anyways.
