EPOV:
Two weeks ago, Jasper made the decision to stop all chemo treatments. His tumor isnt getting any better, and the chemo is making him horribly sick. I told him I was okay with his decision. I lied.
We've been best friends since we were 3 years old. Jasper found out he had cancer three days after his 15 birthday. He's lucky that he's lived to 17. Carlisle and Esme, his parents, have been They keep pushing him to try new medicines and treatments. Sometimes I wish he would just listen to them. But no. He hates the way he feels when he's doing chemo. He says that he would rather die than go through another session. I understand, at least I try. I see the way he looks at Alice, knowing he won't be here for her much longer. I see the way his eyes lose soul when the chemo starts, he looks like hell.
Jasper's family took me in when my parents abandoned me at the age of 5. They dropped me off in front of the hospital, told me they loved me and I never saw them again. Don't ask why they left, because to this day, I have no idea. It doesn't bother me much. I have Carlisle, Esme and Jasper. They are my family for all intents and purposes. They have raised me as their own, and for that I am greatful. Im not the easiest kid to get along with, so I give them props for dealing with me for all these years. I don't know how to begin to describe Jasper and my relationship. We are closer than to guys, two brothers have ever been. We know everything about each other, ever dark thought, ever desire. I concider myself lucky that I have someone in my life like Jasper. He understands me. He doesn't care that im stubborn, that I can be very quiet or very rowdy, depending on the day. He doenst seem to mind the fact that Im socially awkward or the fact that I tend to make people overly uncomfortable. He laughs at my mistakes and I laugh at his. That's just who we are.
I've always been somewhat unstable, in my mind at least. I don't really know what I want. I've never felt fully satisfied in anything I've ever done. Somethings always missing, somethings always off. But I've learned to live with that. I've learned to live with the fact that a small corner of my heart will always be empty.
My thoughts were interrupted by a knocking on my door.
"It's open." I said leaning against the wall that acted as my bedboard. The door swung open and Jasper was standing in the doorway. He had what looked like a buzz cut because his honey colored hair was slowly growing back after the chemo had taken it away.
"Im going to pick up Alice and were heading down to Beck's for open mic night. Wanna come jam?" He asked. His voice was becoming stronger everyday.
"Uh, sure. I'll be right down." I said. He nodded and shut the door, leaving me alone in my room. I stood up from my unmade bed and reached underneath it until I had a solid grasp on my guitar case. I put a flanell shirt on over my Beatles tee shirt, and stuffed my cigarettes in my front pocket.
When I got downstairs, Jasper was waiting by the front door with his guitar in hand. I looked at his face, he looked awake, despite the deep purple circles under his eyes. He looked a little more presentable then me, but still scrungy.
"Lets go." He said, obviously excited to see Alice. I smiled and followed him out the door to my Volvo.
When we arrived at Alice's house, Jasper eagerly jumped out and ran up to the front door while I waited in the idle car. When they finally reached the car, I noticed another girl. She had long full brown hair and our green eyes matched. Jasper and Alice climbed into the backseat.
"You can sit up front." Alice's tiny voice stated from her seat in the back. The girl looked hesitantly at Alice and finally opened up the passengerside door. It wasn't until she sat down that I could see her features. Her nose was…perfect. He eyes were shy, kind. Her lips made my knees shake.
"Edward, this is Bella. She's Alices friend." Jasper said.
"Uh, Hello. Im Edward Cullen." Was all I could choke out. She looked just as awkward as I felt.
"Hi. Im Bella." She said. Our eyes connected for a short second, before she ripped her's away. I sat there for a moment, wondering why I'd never met Bella before.
"Dude. Go." Jasper said as he put his arm around Alice.
I snapped out of my trance and stole one last glance at Bella before putting pressure on the pedal.
As I was driving, I noticed a sharp pain forming in my chest.
I hadn't realized that I wasn't breathing.
