Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight.
Author's Note: This beautiful pair is for my lovely Tia. I beta for her and she inspires me everyday to write. This one is for her, her favorite Twilight ship. Which I actually kinda love. And I also love the context in which is happens. Song in Summary is Like a Stone by Audioslave. Reviews are love. Stay golden, pony boy. -Delta
In Stone
The moment was far too intimate.
Alice was whispering in his ear- just sweet nothings to make the pain of immortal life seem bearable.
Bearable with her.
Bearable with her love.
She smiled and kissed his cheek before brushing her lips against his ear once more.
"I love you," her words were like water to a burning flame, "Jasper."
The moment gone, Emmett turned to leave before he was caught in the act.
It was his name he wanted to caress her lips. His name he wanted her to taste on her tongue.
And it was Jasper's name the broke the spell.
His beautiful Rose, never wilting, never fading, never dying Rose…would never love him that way.
No matter what she said, he knew the truth behind her cold eyes.
He knew that if given the chance…she would leave him. Leave him for humanity.
And he would have given his to have her, forever. In fact, he had. And that sad realization made the fantasies he used to occupy his broken heart seem even that much more unattainable.
Alice loved Jasper just as Emmett wanted Rosalie to love him.
His jealousy aflame, he ran into the forest and didn't return until sunrise.
