I don't own the characters, they belong to the amazing Stephanie Meyer.
I do own the storyline and the characters that I create.
Chapter 1 - Jasper!
Bella's point of view.
5.30 AM?! What the hell? I usually had pretty normal sleeping patterns. Why did I wake up so early? Ugh! Maybe I had a nightmare that I just can't remember, that seemed unlikely though. The only nightmares I ever had were too vivid to forget for weeks after. This was definitely going to put a dampener on my day.
I laid my head back on the pillow and closed my eyes hoping for sleep to come and find me again. But, as predicted, no dice. I thought about what could be the reason behind me waking up so early. I came up with nothing. My thoughts were interrupted when I heard Jasper's alarm clock go off. I jumped up so fast – it made my head spin a little but I quickly found my feet and ran to the bathroom. This was just one of the major reasons why I didn't want to share a bathroom with my brother. I never had this problem before, until he decided to come and live with us. Why couldn't he have just stayed with mum!
I got there first. I guess waking up at half past five in the morning and the not being able to get back to sleep again has its upsides. I looked at my phone then and realised that it was only just quarter past six. I wondered why Jasper was up so early. I shook the thought of, not caring enough to ponder on it more.
I jumped in the shower and the hot water almost instantly relaxed my muscles. I washed my hair and shaved, I wanted to feel fresh for my first day back at school. It shouldn't have been a big deal; I'd been at the same school for just over 10 years. My school was exclusive and expensive. It was for people with rich or famous parents. Cambridge Prep, boarding school for boys and girls. I loved it personally, I knew other opinions differed. But, a new year brings new students. I started feeling excited about seeing if there were any interesting new students starting. I was pretty bored of the usual.
After I'd got out of the shower and put my clothes in the linen basket, I walked out of the bathroom. It was easier to get ready in my room; I only got completely ready in the bathroom if I was trying to irritate Jasper. Today, I wasn't so I just sauntered out of the bathroom with a towel round me.
I flicked my light on and went and sat down at my dressing table. I looked at myself in the mirror and was shocked, I had a sort of healthy glow. I don't know why, after a particularly bad start to the day I'd expected shadows under my eyes but, I had a really good feeling about today.
After I'd decided what to wear and laid it out on my bed, I turned my attention to my hair and make-up. I towel dried my hair until it was just damp and you could see the curls forming. Then got out the make-up bag out of one of the Chester draws on my dressing table.
I'd done my make-up, light foundation and pink blusher. I kept it natural for today. I was just about to put on my jeans when I heard a knock on the door. I went to look out the window only to see Alice. I forgot we were going to school together today. Alice Brandon, the best friend since forever, I smiled at her then shouted to tell her to come up. But, as soon as the door shut, I realised something. I wasn't going to get away with Jeans and a top today. Oh no.
I'd rushed to throw my jeans on in the hope that when she saw me already dressed, she wouldn't tell me to change. But, of course with Alice being Alice; that wasn't the case.
"What the hell are you wearing?! I hope you weren't expecting to wear that on your first day." She pretended to shudder, or at least I thought she was pretending.
I really liked the whole non-uniform thing right now. I knew it was only until school officially started but, for now it was good. We had a week to get sorted on campus and get our rooms ready before we had to start and classes.
"Yes actually Alice, I was going to wear this today. What's so wrong with this?" It was just then I realised what she was wearing.
She had her short black, usually spiky, hair in ringlets. She was wearing a black, too tight, too short pencil skirt with a white ruffle neck blouse and a high waist belt. She had towering stilettos on, I always wondered how she could walk in them. But, she did look absolutely stunning, as usual.
"Bella, you can not wear that. I wish someone would teach you! Here wear th..." Her eyes popped open in shock, looking toward my bedroom door. I followed her gaze only to turn back round when I saw my brother stood in my door way with a towel around his waist and his hair was ringing wet.
My brother Jasper had just come to live with us, my parents split before me and Alice were friends so I guess she'd never seen him before. He was tall, blonde and had crystal blue eyes. He was a dancer, my mum had made him start when he was six or seven, he hated it at first but he did eventually start to like it. Ten years of dancing left him with a pretty impressive physique. He was considered handsome by everyone, and he had a "way with the ladies" as he once put it. We'd been shopping just a few days ago and every girl I saw was either glaring at me or ogling my brother. It was so annoying.
He was here because my mum got re-married and the guy had a job that had them moving everywhere, he said he'd never been in the same school for longer than three months. My mum eventually felt bad for him and so he ended up here. He'd been here for a few weeks now and we we're really close. My dad and him were a little distant because he felt like Jasper had abandoned him when he stayed with mum after the split. He was the type of big brother everyone wanted but, he was really protective. Maybe, too protective sometimes.
There was an incident in the mall a week or so ago. He saw some boy staring at me, so he went over and "sorted him out". Let's just say that, that boy went home crying and he won't be at that mall ever again. It was cute in a scary way.
"Alice, close your mouth, you're catching flies." I said as I sorted my hair out. I had natural curls that reached my waist. They just needed some hairspray and a hand run through them.
"Wh-what?" Had she even heard me? She was so ogling my brother.
"Jasper, go and put some clothes on. Now. We're going to be late!" I shouted it at him over my shoulder.
"Have you seen my Levi jeans? I can't find them anywhere." He asked.
"They're on the end of your bed. In that pile of washed, dried and ironed clothes. Courtesy of me." I was definitely talking to him like he was a three years old.
He walked away then, Alice was still stood there staring at an empty doorway. I got up and waved my hand in front of her face to get her attention.
"Who was THAT?!" She looked at me, eyes wide with shock. Still.
"It was my brother, Jasper. He's living with us now." I went on to explain about my mum and the whole situation.
"Wow. Like seriously, WOW." She looked completely awestruck.
"Let's go." I groaned.
I was hoping that she'd forget about the clothes situation and let me stay in my jeans. As usual, no luck.
"Not before you change. Here." I hadn't noticed the shopping bag in her hand before she went to give me it. She's bought me something? Not a new thing, she hated how I dressed. I looked in the bag and pulled out a grey slouch neck jumper dress, tights and, oh no; heels.
"Alice, do you want me to die?!" I screeched holding out the shoes.
"You won't die, they'll be perfect. Now, stop complaining, get dressed or we're going to be late."
I didn't argue, she was right. Despite my early start it was getting pretty late. I slipped on the dress and it did look good although, it rested about 10 inches above my knees. I got finished, put on some matching jewellery and walked out. Alice whistled at me then laughed.
"Wow Bella, you look hot!" She was looking me up and down. I just ignored her and walked to Jasper's room door.
I banged on the door and shouted, "Jasper! Come on, now! We're going to be late. If you're not downstairs in 5 minutes, I'm leaving without you. You don't know the way to the school, remember?"
He opened the door straight away, "Chill. I'm ready, let's go."
Even I had to admit, he cleaned up well. He was wearing dark blue baggy jeans, he was wearing them pretty low. He had a white, snug fit polo shirt on and smart black Nike trainers. Alice's jaw dropped. I grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the stairs. I grabbed my bag and we we're out the door.
Jasper was driving today. We both had cars, he had a black Lamborghini Gallardo. As for me, I had a light blue metallic Ferrari F430, my baby. I let him drive today, the school car park was far too hectic on the first day for me to risk getting my baby scratched.
Jasper's point of view.
Ugh! I wanted to throw my alarm clock at the wall. I did not want to get up. Then I heard the bathroom door slam shut from the other side. The bathroom connected mine and my sister, Bella's room. She'd beat me to it. I thought getting up at quarter past six might be early enough to get the bathroom first. Crap.
I just closed my eyes again and waited to hear her finish. I heard the shower stop and I was waiting for the door to open. Shit, she's going to get ready in there isn't she. Ah, I'm going to be late now. I opened my mouth to shout her but, then I heard the door open and close on the other side.
I got up, grabbed a towel and made my way to the bathroom. I got in the shower and washed my hair, I really loved my hair. Naturally dark blonde, long and messy. Girls went crazy for it. Once i'd washed myself completely and I was smelling sweet, I got out and wrapped a towel around my waist. I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and damn, I was hot. My body was perfect, that's was ten years of dancing does for you.
I went in my room, dug through my closet and got out my white polo shirt, it fit me perfect and just outlined my body more. I threw it on my bed while I looked for something to wear with it. After a second, I knew exactly what to wear with it, my dark blue baggy jeans. They hung on my hips just right, apparently girls adore that. I started searching through my jeans and trousers, they were nowhere. Hmm, I thought Bella might know where they are.
I made my way down the hallway and stood in the doorway. She was with a friend, I hadn't heard her come in. I must've been in the shower. I couldn't see her face yet, she was turned away from me, but damn, she was hot. Then she turned around and I couldn't even remember my name. She was gorgeous, she had the perfect face, stunning features. Her short ringlets curled round her face perfectly. And, that skirt; my, oh my she had a figure I'd only ever seen in magazines. After studying her face, I looked at her expression. She was looking at me like I was some sort of Greek God. Was it possible someone like her could think anything of me?
"Alice, close your mouth, you're catching flies." Bella teased.
Hmm. Alice, pretty name. Yeah, Alice. I liked it.
"Wh-what?" She seemed dazed.
"Jasper, go and put some clothes on. Now. We're going to be late!" Bella shouted at me.
I managed to snap out of it and structured a coherent sentence. "Bella, have you seen my Levi jeans? I can't find them anywhere." I didn't take my eyes off her friend.
Bella looked at me like I was stupid, I was sure they weren't there. She answered me in an extremely demeaning tone, "They're on the end of your bed. In that pile of washed, dried and ironed clothes. Courtesy of me."
I hadn't noticed the pile, hmm. Oh well. I ripped my eyes away from my sister's friend's face and stopped after taking three steps away from the door. I heard her friend speak and it sent a shiver down my spine.
"Who was THAT?!" She sounded shocked.
"It was my brother, Jasper. He's living with us now." Bella told her, then explained about my mum and step-dad.
"Wow. Like seriously, WOW." She still sounded totally dazed. Her voice was like windchimes, it was perfect. It was like she was singing.
I walked back to my room on a total high. I'd never really noticed girls, none of them ever appeared good enough for me. But, she, she was different. I threw on my jeans and adjusted them so they looked right, put on my black Nike's and sat on the bed. It had only been a few minutes ago but I wanted to see her face again.
"Jasper! Come on, now! We're going to be late. If you're not downstairs in 5 minutes, I'm leaving without you. You don't know the way to the school, remember?" Bella shouted whilst banging on my door.
"Chill. I'm ready, let's go." I said as nonchalantly as possible.
We headed out to the front door and I grabbed my bag I'd got ready last night. We walked out to my car, I was driving today. I didn't mind, any chance to drive my black Lamborghini Gallardo. It was beautiful, she was beautiful.
"So, Jasper." Was she talking to me? Ah, why am I acting like such an idiot? I do not act this way with girls. How could she have this impact on me? "Have you got your dorm room and number sorted yet?" She chimed.
"Yeah, uh, I'm in dorm D, room #22. I'm sharing with some guy named Edward Cullen. Heard of him?" I asked, I wanted to hear her voice again.
"Cool! Me and Bella are sharing a room. We're in dorm A." She thought about something and she looked deep in thought, then her eyesbrows creased and she looked up at me. "No, I haven't heard of Edward Cullen. I thought I knew everyone in our school. Must be new." She shrugged it off and went back to talking to Bella.
After a twenty minute drive, we arrived at school. Wow. I gasped involuntarily and the girls giggled at me. I couldn't help it, the school; it was just so, big. I looked around and noticed people carrying suitcases. Shit.
"Bella, I don't have any of my stuff packed, nobody told me, I thought the semester didn't start 'till Monday!" I looked back at them and neither did they. I was seriously confused.
They just laughed at me, Alice was the one who answered me. "We get out things dropped off, later today. Don't worry Jasper, it's all taken care off" She said it like it was the most obvious thing ever. This school was going to take some getting used to.
Update soon :)! I want reviews though!
