"Bella, I don't want you to come with me." He spoke the words slowly and precisely, his cold eyes on my face, watching as I absorbed what he was really saying. There was a pause as I repeated the words in my head few times trying to see their real intent.
"You… Don't… Want me?"
"No."
Anger flew though me as I understood what he meant. 2 could play at this game Edward Cullen. I sneered his name in my head.
"Fine. But good luck trying to find a second me." I shouted with furry. He flinched.
"Bella it's not like that."
"No? Then what is it like? Do you always do this? Lure a girl in treat he nice for a while then just leave."
"No!"
"Whatever."
"Bella, I just don't want you. Wait no-."
"Oh did you hear that?!"
"Hear what?"
"The stitching on my heart just snapped." If it was possible his face would have paled right then and there. He shook his head and turned away from me. He ran out of view in 2 seconds. Then the loneliness hit me. I was alone from here on. No more bubbly Alice, no more loving Esme, no more fun Emmett, no rose, no jasper, no Carlisle, no Cullens. From here on in it was just me. I wouldn't shed a tear for him. This was his doing. I wouldn't feel sad because of him. Life without him would not be depressing. I had Jacob, Quil, Embery, Sam, Emily. I had the Quileutes, my big warm fuzzy friends, my new family. I decided to take a drive down to La Push. I parked outside Jacob's house. Billy looked out the window with a smile on his face. He waved at me and called out to someone, Jacob? I climbed out of the truck and walked towards the house. I opened the door to see… Jacob.
"Bella!" his husky voice filled the house. It re-ignited warmth in my body.
"Hey Jake!" He gave me a hug. I welcomed it eagerly and could feel my heart re-stitch itself.
"What are you doing here? Did the bloodsucker let you go or something?" He snickered.
"Yea he did." I looked at my feet. Jacob's eyes flew open.
"What!? But doesn't he love you?" He mocked and placed a hand on my shoulder.
"Not anymore." I sighed.
"Whoa… Bells you ok?" he looked at me deeply.
"Yea. I fine." I smiled up at him, re-gaining confidence. He smiled back, brown eyes shining in the sunlight.
"Come on, let's go to the beach." He took my hand and led me to his car.
"It's finished?" I opened the door to the rabbit and got in.
"Yeah. Took a while but it's done."
"Awesome Jake." We drove to the beach. The landscape past in a blur, green, gray and brown. A huge smudge of colour flew past. I turned back to Jacob. His eyes were intent on the road. I could see a small smirk touching the side of his lips. I lifted my hand to pull his lip into a smile. He raised an eyebrow and smiled voluntarily.
3 months later.
I turned the key in my new car. Yes, new. Well it wasn't exactly new but it was new to me. Jacob gave it to me. It was his Rabbit. I was shocked when he told me. The car had a smoother start than my truck and I was in need of a fresh start and this was the perfect way. I reversed out of the driveway and drove up the road. It was dark out, probably a storm on the way. The clouds a thick layer of cotton candy between me and the radiant sun. I entered the parking lot quickly but wished I never did. In the far corner a silver Harley was parked and a golden haired man got off it. I could only stare as Jasper Hale looked over to me. I had stopped the car in the middle of the lane and honks were erupting. I drove the car into the space next to the Harley and opened the passenger's seat for Jasper. He looked in, his golden eyes examining the car and then me. I looked at my hands, avoiding his eyes. He got into the car and examined me from head to toe with his eyes. I felt my heart beat faster at the thought that they mite be back. And if Jasper was here, were was Alice?
"She's with the others." Jasper answered my thoughts.
"What? How did you?" Jasper put a finger on my lips, stopping the rest of my sentence.
"Let's just say, we had a run in with a certain manipulative vampire who thought power switching was fun." He looked at me intently. Interesting.
"But, he can't read my mind. How can you?" Jasper shrugged. Even his shrugging was gracious.
"Why are you here anyway?" I pondered any reasons he could be here alone.
"Edward and Alice ran off together for a few months." He looked away, out the window. All the re-stitching to my heart ment nothing now, a knife had cut right though it. A knife Alice Cullen was holding.
Jasper P.O.V
Flashback.
I walked at a human pace though the threshold of my families new home. The marble floor was wet and threatened even a vampire with its slippery surface. Esme had a thing with moping. I took another careful step but slipped, not because of the marble, but because Rosalie grabbed my collar and dragged me into the kitchen.
"Rose, what do you want?" I groaned.
"Shhh! Listen!" She hissed at me, cocking an ear with her hand toward the floor above.
I strained and then heard it. Soft moans, soft even to my ear, came from upstairs. I raised an eyebrow. Was that Alice?
"If it's that god damn vampire again I swear to god…" But then Edward's thoughts hit me. He. Was. In. Bed. With. MY Alice. I couldn't hear Alice's thoughts only Edwards.
"What the hell is he doing with her?!" I shouted furiously. I was going to rip him apart! The scoundrel.
"Jesus Jasper you're killing me here." Emmett clutched his head in pain. He had inherited my power and didn't like it much. I took in an un-needed breath and began to walk towards the stairs. I could be wrong about what was going on upstairs, but for some reason I don't think I was. I stepped as quietly as possible down the hall and towards Edward's door. The door was on a 10 degree angle, allowing me to view the middle of the bed. There was a sheet with different limbs pocking out the sides, and at the top was a bob of black hair and bronze hair laying next to it. I kicked the door off its hinges and speed over to the bed. I grabbed Edward by the next and threw him into the wall. Alice screamed and grabbed the sheet to cover herself. The sheet had ripped in 2 when I pulled Edward out, half was covering him half Alice. I wasn't thinking like a normal person, I was in military mode, my only objective; to kill Edward. I ran over to him and threw punches.
"Stop Jasper!" Alice screamed. She leaped onto my back and tried to pull me away from Edward, but she was tiny, and couldn't drag me away even if her life depended on it. Edward attempted to block me but I was in rage, nothing could stop me. I bit into Edward's arm, tarring off flesh and spat it away.
"Jasper!" I heard Carlisle and Esme run in along with Emmett and Rosalie. Emmett grabbed me from behind and Carlisle tore my arms off Edward. I snapped my teeth and snarled at him. Edward held his hand over the torn flesh and hissed in pain. I saw Rosalie shouting at Alice but I didn't hear them. My sight had a red hue and venom filled my mouth. I kept my eyes on Edward while struggling fruitlessly against Emmett and Carlisle. They pulled me out of the room and Esme slammed the door shut. Emmett loosened his grip slightly and I took my chance. I ran out of the house and into the garage. I started up my Harley and drove out of the estate.
End Flashback.
"You guys bought an estate?!" Bella blinked at me, her eyes searching for answers.
I chuckled. She was so humorous.
"Esme wanted a Tudor style home so we build one on the outskirts of Colorado." I explained. I scanned her eyes for any emotions that weren't obvious.
"What about…" Bella started then closed her eyes.
"Ali-"
"NO! Im trying to get it out." She took in a deep breath and opened her eyes again.
"What about, Alice and…Edward?" She looked back up at me. Her eyes starting to water.
"They left after that day." All of a sudden, I was aware of all the students watching us.
That bitch. Her boyfriend leaves her and his brother takes his place. She can't leave one man for the rest of us? Lauren's ugly thoughts came into my head. I growled softly.
Hmm, I hope Jasper doesn't remind Bella of Edward too much. She must be in pain after that day. Maybe I should talk to her. Angela Weber was the only sane and kind student at this school, with the exception of maybe her boyfriend Ben, who was very kind, and Tyler Crawly. At least he didn't took some care of Bella.
They can't leave us alone can they?! Edward leaves, Jasper comes back! If he wasn't here I would be in the car with her instead. Mike Newton's thoughts continued further but I refused to listen to the vile things her planned to do innocent Bella.
"Can you take me to your Estate?" I turned my attention back to Bella.
"Now?" She continued.
"What about Chief Swan, err Charlie?! You aren't going to leave him with out a note or anything?" I was shocked that Bella, Bella of all people would leave without saying anything.
"It's just that, I want him safe and the best way to have him safe is leaving him. Victoria is still out there, and Laurent. If you took me away from Forks they'll follow us and leave Charlie alone." Now that she mentions this, she had a point. I looked down at my hands.
"Or you could even... change me?" I snapped my head up.
"No Bella. Not me. Now do you still want to go?" She raised and eyebrow at me.
"We're going to drive?" I nodded.
"Hang on, first off I haven't got any clothes to change to and second, you can expect me to drive all the way to Colorado!" She argued. I sighed.
"Running would be faster. We could always leave our cars at the old house. Wait! I have a better idea. We'll stop at your house and you can grab some stuff from there then I know were we can get a fast car." She nodded.
Bella P.O.V
I parked the Rabbit in the drive way and ran into the house. Jasper followed silently. If I was going to leave before Charlie came back from La Push I would have to hurry. Today was his day off and he had been at La Push since 5:00 am helping Billy with some stuff around the house. I got out my suitecase and rummaged though my draws for what ever I could find then raided the bathroom and kitchen. Before I left, I had to do one thing, call Jacob. Jasper went to the car to get something so I took the chance. Running downstairs I grabbed the receiver and dialed Jacob's number. Lucky for me the werewolf picked up.
"Hello?"
"Hey Jake. Is my dad still there?"
"Nah he left 10minutes ago, should be there soon."
"Bella? Who are you calling?" Jasper walked in.
"There's a leech in your HOUSE?!" Jacob must have heard Jasper's voice.
"Don't worry Jake. Look I have to go, school starts soon. I love you."
"Love ya too Bells." He sighed. I clicked the receiver shut and turned to Jasper.
"You became friends with a werewolf?!" Jasper looked at me shocked.
"Yes is did, sorry but we have to move Charlie's going to be home soon. I pushed Jasper out the door and grabbed my bags. I wrote a note before I left and taped it to the T.V.
Dad,
Im sorry but I'm leaving. Im not going to Renee's place im leaving with a friend, Jasper.
I know this is all sudden and rushed but don't worry he'll take care of me.
Please don't call Renee, if she calls lie to her. And if she asks about why I don't email tell her the pc is broken and we don't have another one.
I love you, and I'll miss you.
Bella.
I ran out of the house, locking the door and got into the Rabbit. Jasper drove down the road on his bike and I followed. We finally reached the turnoff to their house but Jasper just drove strait past. I raised an eyebrow and picked up my cell. I flicked though my contacts and found his. I had all the Cullen's numbers. I rang him.
"Yes?"
"You missed the turn."
"Purposely. Just follow me." I shut the phone. Soon enough he turned down a different lane, hidden more than the driveway before and my car barely fit. After a full 8 minutes of twigs scratching my car and low branches obscuring my view we reached a small building, but big garage. Jasper got something out of his pocket at pointed it at the door to the garage. The door opened to reveal 6 cars. A dark blue BMW convertible, a gold Porsche, one green and one silver Lamberguni, a white Cadillac and black Chrysler.
Jasper parked between the Chrysler and the Porsche. I squeezed between the Cadillac and the BMW.
"Ermm Jasper." I said, knowing he could hear me.
"Yes?!" He called out. I opened the window.
"I don't think I can get out." There was barely enough room for even her to get out.
Jasper laughed. He squeezed between the cars; I had no idea how, and came up to my window.
"Give me your arms." I undid my seatbelt and held my arms though the window.
"What are you going to do?" But before he answered he slid me out the window and onto the hood of the Rabbit. I tried not to giggle but did.
"What so funny?" He looked up at me smiling. My heart stuttered and I bit my lip.
"Nothing." I said, unsure what I was giggling about anyway.
"Ok well, slid to the back of the car." He commanded and I followed. I shuffled along the edge of the hood, but being Bella Swan fell of the side. My bum slipped off the edge of the Rabbit, I tried to grab something to hold onto but couldn't I fell off the side. I shut my eyes waiting for the impact but it never came. I opened my eyes to see Jasper's golden ones looking at me. He put upright hold my hips so I wouldn't wobble. I felt my heart speed up at his touch. He looked down at me, his face one of an angel's. He leaned in slowly. I couldn't move, even if I wanted to, my feet were rooted to the ground. I felt myself move up to reach him. A longing blared up inside me, a longing for Jasper. We were inches from each other when I pulled away. Edward came into mind. Us in the meadow, the first night he came into my room. I felt my eyes water and I broke into gushing tears. Tears I had held in for so long, for 3 months just poured out. Jasper put his arms around me softly. I looked up at him slowly and stepped back.
"Sorry." I sighed. He shook his head.
"Its fine, now choose a car and let's get moving." I blinked as he walked to get my bags. I was going to pick a car. Well might as well get started.
"All the keys are on the wall in order from right to left. I'll be back I have to get some stuff from the house." He ran out of the garage leaving me to try and choose from the 6 cars. I didn't really care which car we took but I wanted one with a roof incase it rained. So that ruled out the BMW. It might also be sunny so we needed one with dark tint, which ruled out the Cadillac and the Lamborghinis, leaving the Chrysler and the Porsche. I choose the Porsche as it was probably the fastest and I really wanted to see the other Cullens. I sifted though the keys and opened the car. I got my bags off the floor and put them into the boot of the car. (A/N: For all the Americans the "boot" is the back of the car.) Jasper came back holding a large bag which he also put in the boot. I got in, careful not to scratch the glossy paint job and waited for Jasper. He got in and reversed swiftly out of the garage, closing the door again with an Electronic Clicker. We flew down the highway and thunder cracked overhead. I looked briefly at the speedometer. We were at a roaring 160kmph. I took a breath in, fighting the g-force of the car.
Jasper's phone began to ring. He handed it to me since he was driving. Sure, break the speed limit but talking and driving, not a chance.
"Hello?" I spoke into the receiver.
"Bella?" Emmett's voice boomed over the phone. I put it on loud speaker.
"Hey Emmett!" I laughed.
"How did you get Jasper's phone. Did he leave it in Forks?"
"No Emmett, im with Jasper." I rolled my eyes.
"Really?! Oh well just so you know Esme's very worried. He's been gone for 8 months now. We miss you bro!"
"Well we're driving to you guys now."
"Oh maybe you shouldn't… Edward called. He's coming with Alice." As Emmett spoke the words Jasper laid the breaks on heavily. My seat belt nearly choked me but stopped me from being flung though the glass.
"You're kidding me. He has the nerve to come back to that house." Jasper went flat out on the accelerator.
"Im sorry Jasper but Esme and Carlisle still love them."
"It's alright Emmett. How is everyone?" I changed the topic to try and enlighten the mood.
"Yea we're alright. How about you Bella?"
"I'm fine. So I guess we'll see you soon?"
"Yea can't wait! See ya sis!"
"Bye Emmett."
I clicked the phone shut and looked over to Jasper.
3 hrs later – outskirts of Washinginton.
I felt someone shake me then a small pinch. I opened my eyes slightly, my vision hazy from sleep. I blinked a few times and realized it was Jasper.
"Bella. We're at a bar. Sorry we couldn't go to restaurant there's none out here." He took my hand and pulled me up slowly.
"Oh, no that's fine." I stepped out of the car and we walked into the bar. It was quite full. A group of bikies were playing pool, a couple was sitting in a booth and a group of girls sat on the right of the bar. Jasper and I grabbed some stools and took a seat at the bar top.
A young man came over to serve us. He had thick black hair and green eyes.
"Can I get a beer and some chips?" I asked reading a small menu.
"Anything for you beautiful." He winked at me. I smiled at him. The man then turned to Jasper.
"What about you? You want anything?" He grunted. Jasper shook his head. The man, Josh from his name tag, left us to get my order. Jasper just glared at the man.
"You ok Jazz?" I asked. He turned to me and smiled.
"I'm fine. Although I noticed, I can read your mind clearly anymore. Just snippets of thoughts." He turned away from me as Josh came back with my order.
"Thanks." I gave a quick glance to Josh and picked up a chip and took a bite, ignoring the heat.
"I'll be right back Bella; I left my cell in the car." Jasper said patting his pocket. I nodded and turned to the chips.
"Do you guys have any tomato sauce?" I asked Josh. He handed me some.
"So what's a pretty girl like you doing out here?" Josh leaned on the bar top and smiled.
"Err, me and my friend, Jasper, are on a err, road trip, umm around the U.S. We're from… Texas." I smiled at him.
"Don't sound very Texan." He smirked. Jasper appeared behind me.
"You sure about that? Com'on darlin' Lets go ova' there." Jasper slid his arm around me while watching Josh intently. I laid some cash on the bench and took the bowl of chips and beer with me to the table Jasper pointed out. I smiled.
"You sound good in your accent." I pointed out. Jasper looked up at me and smirked. It all happened quickly then. A waitress walked by our table but was knocked over by a drunk. One of the glasses hit our table, braking on impact, sending a sharp piece of glass into my arm. I looked up at Jasper; his eyes were fixed on my cut. I pushed back with my feet and ran into the bathroom. My stomach gave a great heave and I spewed into one of the cubicles. I walked grudgingly over to the sink. I pulled out the shard of glass carefully and threw it onto the bench top then ran the cut under cold water and grabbed some paper towels. I wrapped them tightly around the cut, putting pressure on it till it stopped bleeding. The waitress walked into the bathrooms. She had long black hair, and a side fringe and a very striking manner.
"I'm so sorry. That idiot fell onto me. I have a bandage here. Oh, and your friend's out side, in quite a bit of shock." She grabbed my arm and bandaged it firmly.
"Thanks." I lent against the sink as she put a safety pin on it to hold it in place.
"Oh, what a nasty scar." She said noticing the bite mark on my wrist. "Dogs?" She looked up at me. I nodded.
"Sorry again. I'll give you a free 12 pack of beer." She left the bathroom and I followed.
I went to leave but she called out.
"Wait wait! Here you go." She handed me a pack of beer cans.
"Oh, right thanks!" I smiled softly and walked out to Jasper. He looked at me as if waiting to be punished.
"All I have to say is well done. You could have attacked me but you had self control."
Jasper looked down at me, eyes wide and searching.
"Thanks Bella." He lent down and kissed my cheek before getting into the car. I walked to the passenger's side in a daze. For a second or 2 I just stood there in awe but I eventually got it. I just stared ahead, with a hand on my cheek as if Jasper had just slapped me.
"You ok Bellls?" He looked over to me. His eyes dark gold, darker than before.
"Yea what about you?" I asked while pointing the air con in his direction. He smiled gratefully.
"Good, but I cant read your thoughts anymore." Jasper frowned in concentration at me.
