CHAPTER 1
I loved him. I still love him! Didn't he know that? Did I not tell him enough? I wanted to be with him forever, for eternity! Why would he leave me now, in my time of need? His name is Jasper Whitlock. My name is Alice Brandon. We were a couple, but now he is gone.
The first moment I saw him I knew he was the one. It was a cold January morning; I believe it was the 4th and a Tuesday. His golden, shaggy hair hung a little in his eyes as he past the café where I was enjoying my coffee. He looked at me and a beautiful smile slowly spread across his face. My lips slowly copied his own. He almost walked straight into the bustling New York street when a cab driver honked. His cheeks turned red with embarrassment as I gasped, then giggled at his clumsiness. He changed his course and came right into the café and joined me in my corner booth. I don't know how long we sat there talking, but by the time we exchanged numbers and left, I felt like I'd known him my whole life. I was already in love! I finally understood what love at first sight meant. I loved Jasper Whitlock, and I think he loved me.
We quickly started dating, both knowing we were each other's soul mate. Before we knew it, a year had past and we decided to move in together. We moved into a lovely loft in the Upper East Side. Once again, a year had past. On our anniversary he told me to go to that same café and sit in that same corner booth. After about a half hour I started to worry and just as I was about to grab my phone and the bill, I looked up to see him walking past the window. His golden, shaggy hair hung, once again, in his eyes as he past the café where I was enjoying my coffee. I stood to go get him thinking he forgot. He looked at me and a beautiful smile slowly spread across his face. My lips slowly copied his own. He almost walked straight into the bustling New York street when a cab driver honked. I gasped, and jumped scared out of my mind. He changed his course and came right into the café and joined me in my corner booth.
"Jasper, you scared me! I guess you still don't look before you step into the street. What am I gonna do with you?" I scolded with a smile on my face. Jasper slid in next to me and kissed me on the lips. I fell in love once again, just like I always did when he kissed me, even if it was just a peck.
"Sorry, love, I just wanted to re-enact the day we met." He said this with passion glistening in his eyes. I slowly leaned in and gave him a kiss, with tears trickling down my face.
"Ali! Why are you crying? "He asked.
"It's j-just s-so r-romantic!" I flung my arms around his neck and hugged him with everything I had. Then a light-bulb went off. I pulled back, "why?"
"Why what, love?"
"Why did you want to re-enact the day we met?" I asked with, I'm guessing, the most confused expression on my face
"Because, I wanted to ask you something."
He knelt down on one knee and pulled out a small black velvet box.
"Mary Alice Brandon, will you give me the honor of taking my hand in marriage and become my wife?" he asked with the utmost confidence, and tears began to glisten in his eyes, too.
"Y-yes!" I once again flung my arms around his neck and sobbed into his warm, suede jacket.
That was three months ago, the happiest day of my, I mean our, lives. Now I was sitting in an oncologists office, after finding fist sized bruises down my spine.
Flashback
"Don't you think maybe... I don't know if I should say it," Bella stammered.
"My God, Bella spit it out!" I snapped, she had been doing that ever since we found the bruises.
"Is Jasper abusive, Alice?' this time it was my brother, Edward's, voice.
"WHAT?" I spit out that word with as much acid as I could. I couldn't even believe that my brother thought that the love of my life did this to me. I was so repulsed.
"Well, Alice it is possible-"
"GET OUT!"I screamed with tears running down my face. I couldn't would think that.
Edward quickly left the room, leaving Bella to comfort me.
"I'm sorry, Alice. I don't think he really meant it, he is just very protective of the women in his life, and he just doesn't want you to get hurt... again."
As Bella mentioned "again" a whole new wave of tears slid down my face. I couldn't think of that now, it was the past.
After I calmed down, I looked at Bella and told her she was right. I went to get Edward so I could apologize. When i walked into my living room, I found Edward on the phone. He looked really upset. I was about to ask him how it was when he started yelling.
"Jasper, For the love of all that's holy, if you are hurting my baby sister, I will personally kill you myself!" He snarled this horrid falseness at my fiance. How Dare He!
"EDWARD, STOP YELLING AT MY FIANCE THIS MINUTE." I growled so loudly that I'm sure all of my neighbors heard. I pounced.
"GIVE ME THE DAMN PHONE, EDWARD ANTHONY CULLEN!" I was now on top of him, trying to yank the phone away from my terrible brother.
"UGH, get off!" he groaned
"Give me the phone!" He quickly handed it to me.
"Alice, Alice! What is Edward talking about? What bruises? Please Alice tell me what he is talking about!" Jasper worriedly asked me.
"Jasper, calm down I'm okay, their are just some bruises on my back. It's okay. My idiot brother," I glared at Edward, "was just worried about me, don't worry, i will see you when you get home from work." I said this all, franticly trying to calm him down. "I love you." I cooed into the phone.
He took a deep breath, then answered, "I love you, too." then hung up.
"Edward I swear to god, you do that again and I will shave your head in you sleep." I growled as I stalked back to my room, brushing past him and Bella. I then cam eback into the living room and grapped the phone. I headed to my "office' , which was actually more of a studio, for my designing, and open my address book. I quickly called my doctor's office and scheduled an appointment for the next afternoon.
"Will I see you guys tomorrow?" I asked as Bella and Edward readied to leave.
"Definetly, how about we plan to meet for lunch after your doctor's appointment? I can call Emmett, Rose, Carlisle and Esme, make it a family affair?" Bella, always the one to make it a family thing.
"Of course, that sounds wonderful!" I gushed, over-reacting it, making it sound as if I wasn't slowly breaking apart inside. What if there was something wrong with me? What if.. what if I was sick? I quickly brushed that thought aside as I said my goodbyes and started dinner.
"Alice, Jasper, I have some bad news." Dr. M. Hemmings, my oncologist, who my primary doctor sent us to after some test results turned us in the direction, " Alice you have third stage luekemia."
Sorry, I know it's short. But it's my first story EVER so I don't know what I'm doing! please review and give me some pointers, it would be greatly appreciated. This is Alice's point of view and I am also working on Jasper's. In the summary it says that a secret from Jasper's past has caught up with him and even though I already have chapters 2, 3, and almost 4 done I have complete writer's block when it comes to that. so please review and give me some ideas so I can make a poll. Thanks SOOOOO much!!!!!! :)
