A completely random and pointless one-shot. Enjoy!
I watched as the couple made their way through the forest surrounding the house. Their minds fascinating me, their connection so deep it defied conscious thought.
It had been a little under a week since Alice and Jasper had joined our family, and Emmet, Rosalie and I had invited them to come hunting with us. We were in the woods around our house when I noticed a shift in Jaspers mind, though it took me a moment to realise the cause – his mind full of so many varying levels and facets, that it was hard to read – he had picked up on the heartbeats of a heard of deer quite a way away from us. Trying to hear them with my own ears was not possible though, his senses far more honed than mine.
I saw the pixie beside him pause, instinctively knowing he had picked up on something. He stopped beside her, and they exchanged a glance, small smirks pulling at their lips, their minds full of fun and mischief. Both had completely forgotten our presence. Without even conscious thought they both bolted silently into the forest and towards their prey, all the while aware ofwhere the other was. The phrase two parts of one whole had never been more true than when you watched these two together. Even Esme and Carlisle, who had an incredibly close bond had nothing on Alice and Jasper.
Rose glanced at me curiously and I indicated we should follow, their lithe forms already almost out of sight. I nodded and we took off in pursuit. They ran fast and hard, neither hesitating as they entered the clearing, causing the herd to scatter. I watched, mesmerised as they both launched themselves at the same deer knowing intuitively which deer the other would choose, their movements wild and untamed, exhibiting the raw strength and agility only a vampire could have. Alice's vision, quicker even than thought, prompted her to alter her course slightly, missing Jaspers outstretched hands by millimeters as her own hands closed around the deer's neck, snapping it while she pulled the deer away from Jasper, rolling on the ground with it before landing on top of the animal and sinking her teeth into its flesh.
All this had happened within seconds, and Jasper had only just landed from his jump as she sucked the glorious liquid into her mouth, somehow still remaining aware of him watching her. It didn't take Alice long to suck the creature dry, before rising to stand proudly over her kill, smirking at Jasper. Everything about her clearly saying I won!
Jasper huffed, and rolled his eyes at her and she raised an eyebrow at him, daring him to outdo her. A split second later they were off again, intent on another kill.
I've been wanting to do an A/J hunting scene for a while now, and finally got to writing one down. Looking forward to your reviews ;)
