A Game Gone Wrong
Let's put it this way, if I owned any of these characters, I wouldn't be typing on a laptop that likes to crash or twisting the story around for my own amusement
Emmett laughed in triumph.
"Never have I…had thoughts about the good doctor in less than a parental fashion."
Much to his shock, it was not only Bella that took a shot, but Edward and Jasper as well.
"DUDE! What the hell?!"
"Emmett, you try having empathy and feeling all the lust you and Rose throw off without getting a hard on at anything that moves." Jasper replied, ignoring the blush from Bella and the glare from Edward at his choice of words. Emmett just shook his head and the game continued on to the next person in the circle.
"Never have I…" Bella trailed off. She was afraid to say anything to make Edward upset, even if she had a really good choice. How did she get roped into playing this game anyway? She was the only one who could get truly drunk off her ass. Jasper might be able to feel her funky emotions and spread them around but she's the only one who would have to deal with the hangover in the morning. But she couldn't turn Emmett down, not when he turned those puppy dog eyes on her and whined. The fact the stupid empathy had made her feel sympathetic to him didn't help either.
"Screw it" she muttered under her breath. "Never have I had to get myself off because Jasper couldn't control his emotions." She threw back her head and took a shot at her own question along with the vampires in the circle. Edward was the only one not to take a drink.
"Come on Eddie, you're telling me, Jaz has never gotten to you? Even that one night when Bella was here and even Carlisle and Esme needed to find a spot in the woods?" Emmett looked disbelieving.
"It's not Eddie, Emmett and you know that. Of course I haven't. I have more control than that as does Bella." She turned her head sheepishly.
"Actually…" Edward looked stunned.
"What? You've…you've done that? Because of emotions Jasper was throwing off?" Jasper jumped in.
"Oh come on Edward, give the human a break. She doesn't need our kind of self control. Besides, let her have her fun if you won't help her." He shot her a wink and she blushed crimson, causing Edward to growl.
"Ok, let's just keep going guys!" Rosalie interrupted, excited because it was her turn. "Never have I ever wanted to screw someone else in this house without manipulation from Jaz's gift." This time the results were more surprising, Alice and Edward both took their shots. Only Jasper noticed the quick glance that passed between the two and the guilt that shot to the surface. He waited through Alice and Edward's turns before asking the question that would test the theory he so hoped was wrong.
"Never have I ever had relations with someone in this circle other than my partner." Everyone gasped when Alice and Edward once again took shots. The looks of guilt on their faces cut through Jasper's heart. Alice had not met Edward until after they were together. She had cheated on him.
"Never have I ever cheated on my partner," Bella's voice cut through the silence that had erupted in the circle. Edward spoke up.
"Bella I would…" She cut him off.
"Take the shot or don't Edward." He looked at her for what seemed like a million years and then, with a look of regret, he downed the shot of whiskey. Without another word, only a choked back sob, she ran from the room. It took another half second before Emmett reacted…
"WHAT?! YOU CHEATED ON MY BABY SISTER WITH MY SISTER?! YOUR BROTHER'S WIFE!" The next thing Edward knew, he was against the wall, Emmett's beefy hand pressed against his throat. "I should rip you to pieces and then burn them to a crisp," he growled low in his throat.
"Em, no." The whispered comment came from Jasper, who had been sitting in silent shock since his last turn in the game. The bear of a man turned to face his brother. "Don't do something that you might regret later. Or that Bella might regret you doing later." The mention of Bella seemed to penetrate his stupor, and slowly Emmet let Edward slide to the floor. Seeing that no one was in danger of decapitation anymore, Jasper stood and began to walk in the same direction Bella had fled.
"Jazzy, wait!" Alice spoke up for the first time. Jasper stopped but did not turn around.
"Ma'm," he drawled with his Southern accent heavier than it had ever been in his time with the Cullens, "my name is Jasper. Only my family can call me anything less." With that, he continued out of the room and up the stairs.
A/N OK, first time trying this pairing. I'm not sure exactly where this is gonna go but I hate seeing Edward and Bella together so I decided to get it out of the way as fast as I could. Review and I'll work as fast as I can to get more to you.
