A- Allergy. Bree Tanner had been living with the Cullen family for over four months now since they found her in Seattle bleeding to deal from a bugging and begging for someone to help her, and in all that time she had bonded with everyone in the family accept for Jasper. In fact, Bree barely ever spoke to him. It wasn't that she hated him because she didn't; it was more the fact he intimidated her. He was never outright mean, but he did not make an effort to get to know her either and so that left them in a standstill.

In an effort to get the pair to know eachother, Esme suggested they go on a hunt together. Bree went along with it since she did not want to do something which could get her kicked out of her new home. Jasper just went because he actually needed to feed and he would never disappoint Esme or Carlisle if he could help it.

After two hours in the woods of Canada, Bree decided that she should try to start a conversation. Since she had no idea what to talk about, she simply blurted out the first thing that popped in to her head. "When I was still human I had an allergy to cotton. You can probably imagine how hard that made everyday life. When I was first turned I feared my allergy may have gotten worse considering our senses get enhanced and stuff when we turn, but thankfully it didn't. Wouldn't it suck royally if it had gotten worse when I became a vampire? I cannot even imagine how bad it would be."

Jasper tilted his head as a little grin appeared on his lips. "Interesting way to start conversation darlin', I can't say I've ever had had one start quite like this one did."

B- Bath. Jasper had decided to take a nice long shower since he did not have to go to school because of the bright sunlight shining outside. He figured it would be the perfect time since as far as he knew everyone else was out. He had gone for a run and when he got back he found a note from Esme telling him that she and the others had gone to Seattle for a day of shopping and if he wanted to join them that was fine, but he did not have to. Since shopping wasn't really his thing, the southern vampire decided to enjoy some time alone since he did not get to be alone often.

Bree had actually had the same idea since a note had been left in her room by Esme, she thought she was alone in the house. She had been enjoying a nice hot bubble bath when suddenly the door to the bathroom swung open to reveal Jasper in nothing other than a towel loosely draped around his waist. "AHHH!"

The honey blonde male shut the door just a quickly as he had opened it. He had been so lost in his thoughts that he had not heard her in the bathroom."I'll just use the shower downstairs. Sorry about that darlin' I thought you were shopping with the others. On a personal note, usually when women see me half naked I get a different response than a scream."

C- Cinema. Bree was horrified, absolutely disgusted with herself right now and that was why she was hiding out in an empty abandoned cinema watching an old black and white move she had found in a box of trash. She feared going back to the Cullen house because she knew they would hate her. She had tried so hard to stick to their diet and yet one little mistake changed everything. She had been wondering around town when an old man fell to the ground scraping his leg so badly blood seeped through causing drops to stain the concrete sidewalk. She had been unable to control her inner urges and before she knew what she had been doing, the man lay dead in an alley on the bad side of town.

"I have been looking all over for you." She heard him before a rush of air passed and the scarred male vampire was sitting next to her staring at the screen. "You know, if you wanted to go out to see a movie I would have happily supplied the funds needed to go to a theatre which isn't on the verge of collapsing with one wrong move."

"I wanted to be alone." She whispered tearing her eyes from the screen to look over at him. "I know you all know what happened today. Did they send you here to kill me? If they did then I will not put up a fight."

For a moment Jasper felt as if they were one. He knew what she was going through and not just because he could feel it, but because he had also been in this situation before. "Bree, everyone makes mistakes and the best thing you can do is try and learn from those mistakes. Killing you would be pointless since my family has worked so hard to protect you. Everyone slips up once in a while and this is your first time in over a year. I am not going to let you give up all your progress for one mistake. I have faith in you Bree, and if you can get past this then I know that someday maybe I will be able to as well."

D- Dirt. Emmett, being the jokester that he was, had dared Bree to try some human food and since she had not eaten anything human since being turned, she had agreed to try it. Taking a large bite of the pizza he had ordered, she chewed and swallowed it without a problem, much to the disbelief of everyone watching her. Emmett was stunned, Alice was surprised, and the others actually found it kind of funny she had not reacted the way the biggest vampire had expected her to.

"What?" She looked up at everyone before setting the rest of the pizza down. "You guys didn't really think I would allow myself to become a victim of one of his jokes did you? I knew there had to be a catch and I remembered something I had heard you all talking about before and that is when I figured out it would taste horrible. The only reason I even agreed was because when I was still human, my cousin had force fed me a dirt pie and I knew it could not be worse than that."

Jasper smirked as he set his hands on her shoulder. "My girlfriend is an evil genius."

E- Envy. One day Jasper decided that he wanted to take Bree out on a real date and so they had decided to explore some of the shops in Port Angeles. It was there they met Diego, a recently turned vampire who instantly developed a crush on Bree. When she laughed at one of the new vampires jokes, her boyfriend felt and emotion he had never experienced for himself, Jasper felt envy.

F- Figment. "Sometimes I swear I see him outside watching me." Bree was laying in the arms of her fiancee and they watched the snow fall outside. "Rationally I know it's a figment of my imagination because he is dead, but I don't know if I will ever be able to forget him and live without fear."

Jasper held her even tighter after hearing her confession. "Even if I hadn't already killed him, I would never let him hurt you again darlin'. I would rather die protecting you than let something happen to you because I honestly have no idea how I could continue existing if you were not in my life."

G- Goals. The former confederate soldier had been reading when his girlfriend came bounding in to the room they shared with a happy smile plastered on her face. "So I came up with an idea that should help us with our thirst and self control problem. I was reading and I came across an article a magazine that said if you want to accomplish something you should set up a rewards system and that got me thinking. I think we should each write a list of things we want and for each week we go without a slip up, we earn one of those things. Do you like the idea or is it incredibly stupid?"

Jasper thought about it for a moment. "I actually like this plan of yours. It gives you even more of a reason to not make a mistake. This is a good plan Bree, hopefully we will be able to reach our goals easier now."

H- Hiss. For as long as Jasper had known Bree, he never found her to be scary. It took a lot to scare the likes of Jasper Hale and his girlfriend just did not have it in her; at least that is what he thought before they had gotten in to their first argument as an official couple. To be truthful, Jasper wasn't even sure what he and Bree were fighting about.

"Darlin', did you just hiss at me?"

I- Iamatology. During her senior year of high school, Bree decided that it was high time she figured out what she wanted to study at college. She knew she wanted to help people, but she did not want to be a doctor who worked closely with the patients since she knew her control wasn't nearly as good as Carlisles was.

"What iamatology darlin'?" Her southern fiancee asked with a helpful smile. "You said you wanted to help people."

The newest member of the Cullen clan smiled brightly at his suggestion; she couldn't believe she hadn't thought of it before. "The study of remedies for different illnesses. I like that Jasper, maybe I can cure cancer or hey, maybe one day I could even cure vampirism; I know Rosalie would love that."

J- Jacuzzi. "I'm glad you talked me in to taking a break from my studying." Bree was leaning against the hot tub as the warm water bubbled all around her. The cold of her body meeting the hot water caused more steam to be created. "I really needed this Jazz, I have been studying so hard for my finals and I don't know if I am going to pass or not even with all the studying I have been doing-"

Her scarred husband stopped her mid rant by pressing his lips against hers. "You are going to do fine darlin' trust me on that. Now we are going to spend some quality time together enjoying our time in the hot tub. Remember, the Jacuzzi is a zone free of school or work related talk."

K- Kalology. "Why are you staring at me?" If Bree could blush she knew she would be doing so right now. Jasper had been staring at her for the last hour and finally she couldn't take it anymore and needed to know why. "Do I have something on my face? Is that why you keep looking at me?"

"You make me want to study kalology." He told her with a smile before looking back down at the book he'd been reading before he had been distracted by her beauty.

It wasn't until later in the evening when Bree finally had the time to look up what it meant and when she did, she was glad she was no longer human and therefore lacked the ability to blush because she would be red as a tomato if she were human. Kalology was the study of beauty.

L- Leap. "Tell me something you remember about being human." Bree was laying in the sand with her head resting against Jasper's chest. They had decided to take one night out of their honeymoon to simply stare at the stars and enjoy being together just the two of them.

"My brothers and I used to play leap frog in the summer and I would also loose due to the fact I was clumsy. My legs seemed to grow faster than the rest of my body. Anyways, they would always win and for years, even after I was turned, it bugged me, but then I realized as a vampire, nobody could beat me at leap frog now."

His wife sat up as a silent challenge filled her eyes. "Oh, is that what you think? Well I am about to prove you wrong and just because we are married now, you better not think I am going to go easy on you."

M- Moose. "All this time and all the animals you've fed off of and you're telling me that never once have you fed from a moose?" Bree was looking at her fiancee with an expression of stunned disbelief. "Jasper, honey, that would have been one of the first things I tried. I cannot let this stand, you and I are going up to Maine, I was there once and they have some of biggest moose I have even seen."

Jasper had no idea what the big deal was, but if she wanted so badly to this then he would give in to her demands and give Bree what she wanted. "Well we can't let this injustice stand now can we darlin'. Let's go hunt some moose. On a side note, doing this should tell you how much I love you considering Maine is a northern state and I am still a tad sore over the fact the south lost the war."

Bree burst out laughing. "Aww, poor baby, come here and I'll kiss it all better for you."
