This one is especially for my friend, chocolate covered sprinkles, without whom my life would seriously suck. LOL, she's a douche, but she's cool like that.
"Jane what's wrong?"
Jane turned to Alec as he walked into her room.
"No one would understand"
"You know I would"
"Alec" Jane held her brother's gaze, "Even you may judge me and I don't think I could bare your disapproval."
"Tell me"
"I love my master" she blurted, "I love Aro and I don't think anyone would understand"
"You love Aro? Jane—"
"You see, you don't understand. Everyone believes I'm a child and can't truly love. I may be called heartless, but no one sees me for me. Aro does; he sees Jane, not just one of his killers."
Alec sighed, "Jane, Aro does not love you. He is married to Sulpicia, he loves her"
"A ring and marriage does not always equal love. I know he feels for me… He may not love me, but…"
Alec shook his head; he just couldn't believe how disillusioned his sister was.
"I want to go to him and tell him everything I feel—"
"Jane, don't do this—"
"No, Alec you can't understand. If he knows my feelings…he may not return them, but at least he will know how I feel."
Jane rose and headed for the door, but Alec stopped her with a hand on her arm.
"Jane please, even you couldn't bear that kind of pain. I don't want to see you—"
Jane whipped her arm from his grasp, "I can bear anything. I just want him to know."
"Why now? Why all of a sudden?"
"When Edward came here it disgusted me to see how far he would go to prove his love for that human and that me of all people was too afraid to even voice mine. I … I want to tell him before… what does it matter to you Alec?"
"You are my sister, I care for you dearly and don't want to see your spirit crushed."
Jane grinned, "Thank you, but I'll be fine."
She then turned and left, leaving Alec worried behind her.
Jane found Aro in the library, it was an enormous room filled with books from centuries of collection. He was alone, which suited Jane fine.
She slowly walked towards him; she just didn't know how to go about this.
Aro turned, a slight smile on his face.
"Jane, my dear, you haven't been in here for awhile."
"I came searching for you master. I wish to speak with you…ummm…tell you…something, but do not know how to say it."
Damn, she had lost her nerve and was infuriated with herself for it.
Aro laughed, "Jane." He held out his hand and Jane hesitantly placed her own in his.
A silent moment passed as Aro concentrated on Jane's racing thoughts. To Jane it felt as if centuries had passed, and finally Aro's eyes opened and he let go of her hand.
Aro laughed again, "Oh Jane, that is sweet of you."
"Master?"
"I've only felt emotion like that a few times before. Sulpicia feels that strongly as well, did you know?"
A low hiss escaped Jane's lips before she could stop it.
"Oh Jane, I never thought you the jealous type. Sulpicia got me first and I could hardly love you like that."
"Why? Because you see me as a child?" Jane screamed, "You know I am the furthest thing from—"
"Jane please, you are not a child, no one here treats you so. You are my most precious gem, but could never be…what Sulpicia is to me. Now stop this, it will only complicate things."
"Stop this? How can you ask me that?"
"Jane," Aro said sternly, "Do not anger me. I care for you, but will not tolerate nonsense from you. Return to your room and take time to think."
Jane opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted when the heavy doors to the library opened. She turned and saw Sulpicia step calmly into the room. She walked towards Aro, floating passed Jane and not fully understanding the seething hatred Jane directed at her.
"Sulpicia love, where have you been?" Aro asked.
"I was with Heidi outside of Volterra. We just returned." She turned to Jane, "Jane dear, what's wrong?"
Jane growled, then stormed out of the room, nearly ripping the doors off its hinges.
Sulpicia looked very puzzled, "Why is she so angry?"
Aro smirked, "Don't worry about Jane. Tell me what happened while you were with Heidi."
Jane smashed her room doors open, anger ripping though her. Alec sat on her bed waiting.
"Jane—"
"Don't!" she screamed, flinging herself onto her bed beside him.
Alec could do nothing, but hold her as she wept with no tears.
So yeah, I wrote this because my friend thinks that there is something going on between Aro and Jane (she even convinced me to put up a poll to ask everyone's opinion). I think there may be, but Jane seems a tad more obsessed than our power hungry Aro, LOL. Anyhoo, hope you liked the story. Back to writing now XD =P
