Arrow: Hey everyone! I just started this story so tell me if I should keep going or not. Jasper will you please do the disclaimer?

Jasper: Sure. Arrow doesn't and never will own the Twilight saga or any of the characters.

Chapter One: A New Student

Jasper's POV

I know that Alice is upset that I don't feel the same way she does, but she will get over it. Besides, Edward will comfort her, he always does. I hope Alice will finally realize how she feels about him, her indecision is driving me crazy!

My name is Jasper Whitlock and I am a vampire. I live with my adoptive family, the Cullens, who are also vampires. I used to live in the South and I fought in the Confederate Army. I was only seventeen when I joined the ranks of soldiers, but I convinced them to draft me.

I, like Edward and Alice- who can read minds and see the future respectively- have a special gift. I can sense, identify, and manipulate people's emotions. My other talent is my fighting skills, however, I had military training so it is a second nature to me.

When I was first changed by a vampire named Maria, I followed a vampire's traditional diet- not the vegetarian version that I now follow along with the rest of the Cullens. When Alice found me and brought me to them, I had already left Maria and was wandering aimlessly around the country.

I was glad when I went to the Cullens and took up their diet, even if it is difficult for me. We have to move constantly to remain inconspicuous, but it is worth it. Right now we live in Forks, Washington, a small town on the Olympic Peninsula. We go to school at Forks High School (how original)- Go Spartans! (note sarcasm).

I have never found that special someone, or as Esme calls it – my soul-mate. I don't think that I ever will, but Rosalie, Emmett, Esme, Carlisle, Edward, and Alice remain hopeful for me.

~~~~~~~Forks High School~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~Lunch Time~~~~~~~~~

It's lunch at school and won't this be fun (again, sarcasm). Emmett and Rosalie went into the cafeteria first, followed by Edward and Alice. When I walked in, I noticed a new student, a girl, sitting next to Jessica Stanley.

Bad choice, girl, I thought. We all knew that Jessica would do anything to get in good with Mike Newton, who, obviously, liked the new girl. I shook my head, smiling a little. When I took my seat next to Emmett, I looked back at the girl. As soon as I did, I gasped.

She was gorgeous! Absolutely stunning. I didn't think that anyone could be this beautiful. Her skin was pale, almost translucent, and she had the most amazing eyes. A light, sparkling, almost honey-colored brown, so deep that I lost myself in them for a moment as she glanced at our table to get a look at us. Her mahogany colored hair cascaded down her back and framed her face, complimenting her pale complexion. In short, the girl was the most stunning creature in the world.

She seemed to sense that someone was staring at her, so she turned to see who it was. When she saw it was me, she blushed furiously. When Jessica spoke to her again, she turned to answer her and ruined my view of her face. I shocked myself, and almost growled!

One thing was for sure, I had to find out who this new student was. Fast.

"Edward," I said carefully. "Who is that girl sitting between Newton and Stanley?" Edward glanced over at her, and then furrowed his brow.

"I don't know. I can't read her mind." He seemed deeply troubled by this fact. All of us were. Never had we even heard of such a thing.

"What do you mean, you can't read her mind?" Alice asked anxiously. Rose and Emmett both looked uncomfortable. I was in shock, so much that I did nothing to calm the atmosphere.

"Edward," a hesitant Rose asked, "do you know what this could mean?"

"No, I don't. This has never happened before, I have no reference for what might be causing this." We all shuddered, never had Edward's ability failed us.

Quietly, Emmett said, "Maybe we should talk to Carlisle about this before we freak out." We all nodded. Carlisle would know what to do.

The bell rang and we all quickly stood and walked out of the cafeteria. I fell behind when I felt someone's eyes boring into my back. I stopped and turned around, ready to apologize in case I had stepped on someone's foot or something. What I found instead was that I was staring at the beautiful girl. I was dumbfounded.

"Hello. My name is Isabella Swan, but you can call me Bella. What is your name?" I was shocked. She was talking to me! I should answer her.

"Jasper Hale. You can call me Jazz though if you want. It's nice to meet you, Bella." She smiled. I smiled back.

"What class do you have next Jazz?" My smile grew wider when she used the nickname that Esme and Alice gave me.

"Physics. What about you?"

"Biology. The worst class ever." I smiled. My brother Edward was in that class with her.

"My brother is in your next class. His name is Edward Cullen. Look for him, he'll help you if you need it." It didn't seem possible but her smile grew even wider.

"Does he look like you?" I smirked at her unsuitable curiosity.

"Somewhat. You'll know him when you see him don't worry." Her smile fell. I felt a wave of disappointment wash through her. "What's wrong?" I asked, worried that I had said something wrong.

"It's nothing, but-" she didn't continue.

"But what?"

"I just wish that you were in my class instead. I'm sure that Edward is nice but I still wish I had someone that I knew in that class." I was flabbergasted. She, the most stunning creature on the planet, wanted me, the monster, in her Biology class instead of my brother.

"Well, we can see each other after your class. How about I meet you outside the cafeteria after my Physics and your Biology class?" Her face lit up with a blinding smile and her emotions nearly overtook me.

"That would be awesome!" she exclaimed in pure excitement.

"Alright, see you after class." She nodded and ran off to her class. I stood there, completely stunned that she had decided to brave a human's natural instinct to avoid me, to talk to me. I smiled The angel had talked to me! This was amazing! Maybe I could talk to her some more. The warning bell rang and I had to go to class, but it was worth being almost late.

I got to meet Miss Isabella Swan.
