Confusion
Lunch. The time when we were most noticeable. The time when we must be the most careful. We all looked off in different directions, not speaking. I held a tray of food, an apple and a can of soda. I was sure that people took notice to the fact that we never ate, but they wouldn't think much of it.
I couldn't stand it any longer. Edward I called for his attention.
He didn't look away from the wall, but I knew he was listening.
How's he holding up? I asked.
He frowned, not noticeably to anyone else, but it certainly was to me.
I became anxious and began to watch Jasper from the corner of my eye. Is there any danger? I looked into the not so distant future, just in case his frown had to do with something else.
He slowly rotated his head to the left. He sighed, then moved his head back to the right. This was Edward shaking his head, though only I could tell.
I relaxed a little. Let me know if it gets too bad.
He nodded with eyes, moving his pupils up then down once.
Thanks for doing this. And that concluded our conversation.
I continued to watch Jasper. Everything seemed fine, but we hid our emotions pretty well. All I could see was the slight pain caused by thirst on his face. Please nobody walk too close. Pretty please with A Positive on top? Okay, not a great idea to think about blood right now. Ow, my throat hurts…
Edward kicked Jasper's chair, interrupting my train of thought. Jasper looked at him for a moment, then looked away.
"Sorry." He said quietly.
Edward shrugged.
Jasper was thinking about hunting classmates again.
"You weren't going to do anything," I comforted him. "I could see that." He would only let the thought play out in his head, not in reality. My heart knew that, but my vision doubted it.
"It helps a little," I suggested, "If you think of them as people. Her name is Whitney. She has a baby sister she adores. Her mother invited Esme to that garden party, do you remember?" Of course he remembered. We remember everything. Like blood drinking elephants, kinda.
"I know who she is." He retorted, blowing of my advice.
Well that was that. I knew that he had had enough of my help. I silently sighed and rose with my tray. I walked to the back door, perhaps a little too fast to be considered human, and threw my "lunch" away.
Jasper didn't want to talk about his problems anymore, and that was fine. He could stay bottled up forever if he wanted. As soon as I felt the cold air, it hit me. I had nowhere to go and nothing to do. With more than 30 minutes of lunch left, I needed something to keep me busy. Just standing here would be fine with me, but rather odd for a human to do, so I went to the office.
"Hello Mrs. Cope." I said sweetly, folding my arms across the front desk.
"Hello, how can I help you?" She smiled and looked away from the computer to focus on me.
"Can I have some college brochures and applications?" Reading and writing would keep me busy.
"Of course." She rolled her chair to a cabinet. She leafed through the folders inside, "Which colleges?"
"Yale, Harvard, Columbia and Dartmouth." The usual.
"Oh, those are all very nice schools!" She sounded surprised, then caught herself. "Well, with your grades you deserve it."
"Why thank you Mrs. Cope!" I smiled, as if flattered.
She handed me the stack of papers and I took them as gently as I could. With one more "thank you" I headed out the door.
I sat at one of the underused outside lunch tables, and scattered the papers over the top. I got out a black pen and started to write. Quickly but thoroughly I filled out each application one by one and wrote four separate essays.
A sea of students stampeded out of the cafeteria, hurrying along to class. I gathered my things in half a second and blended in with the crowd. I couldn't imagine how hard being completely surrounded by humans would be for Jasper. Even though I hadn't hunted for two weeks, I felt perfectly fine.
"Hey there, wait up!" I heard from behind me. I turned around to see Emmett two people behind me. I stopped and they slipped around me.
"Hey Em. How was you lunch?" I asked.
"Great," he said for the benefit of anyone who might be listening. "I love fish sticks and Jell-O. Best combination ever." He said sarcastically.
"I thought you were vegetarian." I laughed at our inside joke.
"I doubt they're really made of meat." He joked.
"True." I agreed.
We arrived at building 5 a few minutes later. Emmett opened the door for me.
"Ladies first." He insisted.
"Why thank you." I walked into Washington State History, Emmett right behind me.
"Good afternoon." Ms. Flener greeted us.
"Good afternoon ." I politely smiled and headed to my seat in the third row.
"Sup." I heard Emmett say in return. He walked down the aisle and took his place next to me.
Class went by in a blur. To be honest, I was barely aware of what was going on in class. All I could focus on was Jasper. Technically, I could focus on class or Jasper. Naturally, I chose Jasper. I already had 110% in this class anyway. Jasper used his abilities to convince the teacher to let him switch to a window seat in English.
When PNW (pacific northwest) ended, I only had one class left. I slung my backpack over my shoulder, accidentally hitting Emmett in the nose.
"Oops," My hand flew to my lips in embarrassment. "Sorry Em."
"Uh, yeah, ow…" he rubbed his nose.
I laughed and sped off to advanced calculus, more then ready for school to end. Thankfully, Mr. Lenon gave us a workday, so I kept my mind busy with a 50 problem worksheet, due Wednesday. I finished with five minutes to spare, so I started working on the textbook assignment that would be assigned for over the weekend homework. As soon as the bell rang, I was a flash of color out the door, obsessing over Jasper again. I slowed down when I was outside, much more noticeable now.
I was the first one to the car, so I sat in the passenger seat for a while in silence. Soon after, Jasper scooted into the back.
"Hello Alice." He greeted me.
"Hello Jasper." We sat quietly for a while. Emmett and Rosalie piled into the back minutes late. We all continued to wait for Edward.
Finally, when the parking lot was almost empty, Edward appeared out of nowhere. He got into the drivers seat, gasping for air.
"Edward?" I asked, alarmed.
He said nothing, but he shook his head.
"What the hell happened to you?" Emmett demanded.
He didn't reply. Instead, he threw the car into reverse. We spun around towards the exit, and hit 40mph before leaving the parking lot. Jasper, Emmett and Rosalie all shifted to stare a me. I was just as confused as them, so I simply shrugged. I wanted to know what was wrong though, so I sifted through a myriad of futures, until I found Edward's. Goodbyes were being thrown around. Edward walked out the door, nobody following or feeling happy.
"You're leaving?" I barely managed a whisper.
Everyone redirected their gazes to Edward.
"Am I?" he spoke acidly through his teeth.
I focused again. If he didn't leave, then he would…
"Oh." I said. I saw the new girl, Bella Swan, who I hadn't even met, dead. Edward was hanging by with deep crimson eyes.
"Oh." I repeated. I concentrated harder. The picture changed, became clearer. I saw the inside of the Swan's house, a new location to for my visions. Bella was in a kitchen much smaller than ours, even though ours was just for show. She faced away from Edward as he encroached on her, following her floral scent…
"Stop!" He moaned.
"Sorry." Again, all I could squeeze out was a weak whisper, my eyes still opened wide.
Where was he going? My vision changed again. This time I saw an empty highway, shrouded with snowy trees passing by in green and white blurs. It was dark, nighttime. He was going to Alaska, to live with the Denali coven.
"I'll miss you," I said. "No matter how short a time you're gone."
Jasper pleadingly looked at me, wanting an explanation. I couldn't think of him now. Edward's leaving? Has he told Carlisle? No, I checked with my visions. He hadn't told anyone yet. But he has to tell Carlisle. Like, now.
We were just about at the turn off that led to our house.
"Drop us here," I advised, "You tell Carlisle yourself."
He nodded and the car came to a screeching halt.
Emmett, Rosalie and Jasper quietly filed out of car. I placed a hand on Edward's shoulder.
"You will do the right thing," I assured him with certainty. "She's Charlie Swan's only family. It would kill him, too."
"Yes." He agreed, though I wasn't convinced he believed in himself as much as I did.
I leapt out of the car, my eyebrows knitting together apprehensively, and joined the others. We disappeared into the woods, moving quickly to the house. I'd rather explain once we were inside, further away from the last sighting of our brother.
