Destinies Entwined
Chapter 1: Welcome to Forks
Jasper sighed as he hugged his mother. "You two really don't have to go" Renee insisted as she let him and Bella go.
"Mom we'll be fine. You go travel with Phil have fun," Bella insisted.
"I'll take care of Bells mom don't worry," Jasper assured his mother, wrapping his arm around his sister's shoulders.
They looked up when here was dinging over the sound system. "Flight 710 is now boarding," the woman announced. Over the PA system.
"That's you guys, call me when you get there," Renee insisted.
"We will," Bella answered.
Phil hugged his step kids with a smile. "Travel safely you guys," he told them. Jasper shook his hand with a smile.
"Take care of our mom," Jasper answered.
"Promise," Phil answered grinning.
Phil wrapped his arm around Renee as they watched the two teens board their flight.
When their plane landed in Seattle, Jasper and Bella got off the plane to see their dad there waiting for them. "Hey you guys," Charlie greeted
"Hey," they answered in unison.
A long silence fell on the three of them. "Let's get your things. My car is outside," he informed. They nodded as they followed their father to baggage claim. Sighing, the eldest Swan sibling moved his fingers through his hair as he walked out of the airport, finding his father's cruiser sitting outside the airport. Sighing, he put his things in the back of the cruiser. Bella got into the back of the cruiser while Jasper got into the passenger's seat.
During the drive, it was the longest, most awkward drive he had ever been on in his life. "When did you start playing guitar?" Charlie asked, trying to break the tension. Jasper glanced at his father.
"I've been playing since I was ten," Jasper replied.
"Oh…" Charlie trailed off.
Jasper bounced his leg up and down, just wishing the ride would be over.
When they arrived at the house, Jasper got his stuff out of the back of his car, going inside. "I cleared a shelf for you and Bella for the bathroom," he informed
"Oh…right…one bathroom," Bella commented.
Jasper cleared his throat as he followed Charlie into his room. Everything was the same since the last time he stayed in his room. "I put a computer in yours and Bella's rooms, so you two won't have to share," Charlie commented. Jasper sighed, he knew Charlie was trying.
"Thanks…" Jasper answered.
Charlie looked around. "Well alright," he commented before leaving. Jasper turned around as he opened his guitar case, sitting down on the bed to tune his guitar.
"Welcome to Forks," he muttered.
After the weekend, Jasper walked down the stairs to find Bella standing in the doorway waiting. "Ready?" he asked.
"Yeah," she replied.
She tossed him a set of keys. "What are these for?" he asked.
"That truck in the driveway. Dad said he bought it off a friend," she replied.
Jasper smiled as they walked out of the house. "I guess living with Charlie won't be so bad after all," he commented. Bella laughed, nudging her brother.
Driving up to the school, Jasper stopped the truck and it backfired, having everyone in the parking lot stare at them as they got out. "Great, now we're spectacles," Bella commented. Jasper laughed as he closed the door, pocketing the keys.
"It'll be fine," he assured her smiling.
Bella walked with him up the stairs into the school.
As they walked around during the day, since they were both in AP classes in their old school in Phoenix, the classes they were in weren't so hard.
Jasper sat in his desk when he noticed a girl was glancing at him constantly through class. "Hi," she whispered while the teacher wasn't looking.
"Hi," he answered.
She gave him a flirty smile. "I'm Lauren Mallory, this is Jessica Stanley," she informed
"Hi," Jasper answered while looking back at the board.
Tapping his pencil on his notebook, he tried to ignore the constant giggling going on next to him between the two girls. "Is there a problem Miss Mallory? Miss Stanley?" the teacher asked.
"No sir," they answered in unison.
"Eyes on the board please," he instructed.
The class became silent again until a note was tossed on his desk. Looking down, he opened it while the teacher's back was turned. "Want to join us for lunch?" the note read. Jasper grabbed his pen, clicking it open.
"As long as my sister can join," he wrote down before passing it back.
The girls were reluctant but they nodded in agreement.
When lunch rolled around, Jasper sat at the table. "Hey I'm Mike, this is Eric," the two guys at the table informed.
"I'm Jasper, this is my sister Bella," he informed.
"We've already met," Bella answered sitting next to her brother.
"And I'm Angela," a third girl informed as she walked up to the table.
"What brings you guys to Forks?" Mike asked.
Jasper took a sip of his soda that was on his tray. "Long story," Bella replied.
"Oh look, they're here," Lauren muttered.
"Who?" Jasper asked looking around.
"Them," Jessica replied gesturing to the door.
The two new students looked toward the door and four people walked in. "The blonde haired girl walking in is Rosalie Cullen. The big dark haired guy with her is Emmett McCarty. She's a total bitch and he just thinks he's the hottest thing on this planet," Jessica commented.
"Who's he?" Bella asked as the bronze-haired guy went into the food line.
"That's Edward Cullen. He's totally gorgeous, but apparently no one in this school is good enough for him," Lauren replied.
Jasper's eyes scanned over to the girl who walked into the line with Edward. "And her?" he asked. Jessica started laughing.
"That's Alice Cullen, she's a total freak," she laughed.
"Yeah she's totally weird," Mike put in as the rest of the table, except for Angela and Eric, started laughing.
"I think she's nice," Angela commented.
"You would," Lauren answered snootily.
"Actually I think all the Cullens and Emmett are nice people," Angela commented.
Eric wrapped his arm around the back of his girlfriend's chair. "Yeah Emmett's a cool guy," he put in. Jasper looked over at Alice as she walked by with her tray, talking in a quiet voice to Edward.
She was wearing purple ballet flats, gray leggings, a knee-length pale purple dress with pale pink flower print, and a dark purple sweater was over her shoulders. Her brown hair was long, hanging around her shoulders, and her green eyes kept scanning around the room. She was petite, she didn't even reach Edward's shoulder. "Hey Alice, why don't you come over here and tell us our futures?" Jessica called laughing.
Jasper and Bella saw Alice's face grow extremely red with embarrassment while Edward wrapped his arm around his sister while glaring at the group of people who were laughing. "Why don't you hoes go back to the brothel you crawled out from?" Emmett answered.
"Isn't that where you met Rosalie?" Mike asked Emmett.
They watched as Emmett went to walk over to the table when Rosalie grabbed a hold of his arm. "Emmett he's not worth it!" she hissed.
"Now you're whipped McCarty?" another student, James, asked as he sat down at the table.
"Go to Hell James," Emmett muttered before he grabbed Rosalie by the waist and they sat back down.
"Bella let's move," Jasper told his sister.
Bella nodded as they got up with Angela and Eric right behind them.
Once they sat down at an empty table, Jasper let out a deep breath. "What the hell was that?" Jasper asked.
"They have been slinging those kind of insults at Rosalie since last year and they've been mean to Alice like that since kindergarten," Angela replied.
"But why?" Bella asked.
"No one knows. They don't talk much to other people. Can't say we blame them either," Eric replied.
Jasper looked over at the family at the table to see that Emmett had said something to Alice to make her laugh. Her smile was like a thousand suns to him, it lit up the whole room.
When lunch was over, Jasper walked into history class to find Alice sitting all the way in the back corner. He handed the teacher the slip he had to sign before going to the back. "Hi," he greeted with a small smile. She looked over at him with a surprised expression on her face.
Looking around, she saw that no one else was around before looking back at him. "W-Were you talking to me?" she asked. Her voice, ah her voice sounded like a beautiful melody to his ears. Chuckling lightly, he nodded his head slowly.
"Yeah, hi, I'm Jasper Swan," he informed.
"I know," she replied.
Her face flushing, she looked back down at the sketchbook. "I'm Alice," she added quietly.
"I know," he answered chuckling.
Alice gave him a small smirk. "Welcome to Forks," she said quietly. Before Jasper could answer, the teacher started the class.
The class was boring, so Jasper would glance out of the corner of his eye, watching as Alice drew something in her little sketchpad. When the bell rang, Alice quickly stuffed the notebook in her backpack, getting up from her chair. As she went to leave, a student tripped her, making her drop all of her books. The students laughed especially when she fell on all floors onto the ground with small yelp. Jasper walked over, helping her gather her books. "Here," he murmured handing her, her stuff. Alice bit her lower lip as she took the books.
"Thanks," she answered.
He smiled a little. "You alright darlin?" he asked, his southern drawl revealing itself a little. She continued to stare at him in disbelief.
"Yes, yes I'm fine thank you," she answered.
He helped her up from the floor. "It's you…" she whispered. He gave her a quizzical look. "Sorry, I'm sorry I have to go," she told him hurrying by him and out the door. Jasper watched her leave, but couldn't help but feel confused about what she was talking about. Moving his fingers through his hair, he grabbed his books and went to meet Bella by the truck. The first day at Forks High School was a very interesting day.
