First Meeting

JPOV

I walked into the greasy diner and looked up towards the bar where no one sat but a girl. An immortal girl by the look of her. How could that be possible? The immortal children were against vampire law. She looked round at me and smiled. It was as if someone had kicked me in the chest, she was a beautiful young woman, probably turned at the age of 20, not an immortal child. She hopped down off the bar stool with the grace that marked her for what she was and I decided, almost instantly, that she was not a threat, something this beautiful could not be a threat.

I looked into her eyes and found them to be amber, not the red I was used to seeing. The red that gave away my nature, my need for blood. How on earth had she managed that? This vampire was different. She was not full of anger and blood lust. She was perfectly comfortable sitting in this little room full of humans and when I read her emotions all I found was love and kindness.

Every movement she made was delicate and graceful. I watched her make her way from the old bar stool to where I was standing, amazed by the emotions emanating off of her. She came to halt and had to tip her head up slightly to look into my eyes, even though she still stood nearly two feet from me.

"You've kept me waiting a long time" she said to me. Her voice sounded like wind chimes on a porch, the most beautiful sound I had ever heard. For some reason I found my self apologising, though I hadn't a clue what for as I hadn't really paid any attention to what she was saying.

"I'm sorry, ma'am" I said to her, ducking my head. She held her hand out to me and I gave her my own without thinking about it, without wondering what would happen or where I would end up. And for the first time in my entire existence, I felt hope. A hope for a better life with this beautiful creature, who lit up every place she walked.

She marched us out of the diner and through the small village into a nearby forest where she proceeded to sit me down next to her on a big boulder.

"So Jasper Whitlock, it's nice to finally meet you for real" she told me. I was rather confused by this statement, what on earth did she mean by real?

"My apologies ma'am but I'm afraid I haven't got a clue what you're meaning by that" I said to her. She looked up immediately and smiled.

"Oh, of course. I'm sorry Jasper, well I probably should start off with telling you my name." she said. I nodded and she continued. "My name is Alice. Just Alice though, I haven't got a clue what my surname was. In fact, I can't remember anything about my human life at all." I suddenly felt pity for her. She couldn't remember anything at all. I hadn't met another vampire who couldn't remember anything from their previous lives. Even I could recall some dim memories of various events in my human life.

"I am sorry Miss Alice. That must be awful"

"Not really" she said, looking up at me with a smile on her face. "Because I can't remember anything I don't really know what I'm missing" She stood rather suddenly, pulling me up with her.

"Come on" she said, her voice sounded like a rather harsh whisper. "I can see other vampires coming this way and things will not end well if we don't get a move on right now." And with that we were speeding through the trees and after not very long we had reached an abandoned house. It was still furnished and looked like it had been left only yesterday.

"What is this place?" I asked as she pulled me through the door into a large and open foyer.

"It used to belong to a coven of vampires called the Cullens" she said, closing the door and turning to face me. "They left last week and I have been living here ever since. They felt it was time to move on. I had to wait here for you before going after them." She said, while pulling me into the living room.

The walls were a crème colour as was the small table in the centre of the room and the rug that it sat on. The two sofas that sat in front of the fireplace were a chocolate brown colour as were the curtains of the double arch windows that looked out into the forest.

"Make yourself at home Jasper. Then you can tell me what happened to you." she said, gesturing to one of the brown sofas. I took a seat but was rather confused about the other part of what she said.

"What do you mean Miss Alice?" I asked. What had happened to me?

"Your scars" she said gently, motioning to the most prominent one above my right eyebrow. I decided against telling her my story just now. I wanted to learn more about her and know what on earth she wanted with me.

"Not just now" I said, she looked slightly crestfallen though. "But I will later, I just want to learn more about you and what we are going to do next first. You clearly know something I don't. Tell me what you can do." I said. She looked at me in surprise. I searched her emotions and found the surprise but it was slowly melting into admiration.

"You are very observant aren't you? Well then, let me tell you about the future."
