Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight.

A/N: So, this is my first Twilight story, so be kind, or don't, see if I care, lol. Anyway, I absolutely love Edward and Bella together. They are just so perfect for one another. I hate pulling them apart just to stick one of them with a different person, someone that they don't belong with. But like many other authors, I can't help thinking, what if Edward never came back for her during New Moon? That is the only time when I would ever decide to give them a different lover (I'm saying this now, when in the future I will probably end up ripping them apart during Breaking Dawn, lol). A lot of people would decide to have her end up with Jacob, but I found myself thinking like a lot of other also did, what if she ended up with Jasper? Bella already knows that Jacob is a werewolf, he turned in Twilight. This story is told in third person because i end up confusing myself when I have some of my stories written in first and other in third. Enjoy!

Bella couldn't believe it. He had left her. After all they had been through Edward had left her. She should have known she wasn't good enough for him. She wasn't beautiful, she wasn't fast, or strong, she wasn't a vampire. So now she lay on the ground in the middle of the forest, she had given up. She no longer cared what happened for her, she just wanted to die. Everything that she had ever wanted was gone. Her future with Edward was gone, she no longer had a chance of becoming part of the family that she had dreamed of being part of.

Tears streamed down her face and onto the damp ground and she hardly noticed when it began to rain, wet droplets fighting their way through the thick canopy of leaves and pelting down on her.

She heard voices, calling her name, but she ignored them, not wanting to be found, though in the back of her mind, the reasonable part, she knew that Jacob, or Sam, or one of the other wolves would end up finding her.

And she was right, because in less than five minutes Bella found herself being lifted off the ground by none other than Sam Uley. She ignored his questioning of whether or not she was okay, she wasn't and she doubted that she ever would be again.

Bella lay on the couch, after being handed over to Charlie by Sam and carried into the house. Never had she thought that this day would come. She had thought that Edward would always want her, how stupid was she, thinking that someone as perfect as him would ever want her.

"Bella, did Edward leave you alone in the woods?" Charlie asked, breaking through Bella's thoughts.

"No," Bella replied, weakly, Edward's name bringing fresh tears to her eyes. Just then the phone rung yet again and Charlie rushed over to answer it. Bella sighed and pulled the blanked up to her chin, listening to Charlies side of the conversation, he was talking to Billy. Bella couldn't care less about Billy at the moment. She didn't care about anything, not anymore, not after the person that she had cared about more than anything else in the world had just told her that he didn't want her anymore, that he didn't love her. That was enough to make anyone stop caring.

Bella listened as Charlie thanked each and every person that had helped try to find her, then went on to calling people to tell them that she had been found and was alright, yeah right she would never be alright again, and answering phone calls.

Then there was a knock at the door. Figuring that it was just someone else that was checking in to make sure she was alive Bella closed her eyes, pretending to sleep, not wanting anyone to try to coax her into a conversation.

"Mr. Swan, I'm Jasper, Edward's brother, may I speak with Bella?" Bella felt a surge of hope and relief at the sound of Jasper's voice, hope that couldn't be good for her, relief that couldn't be good for her, because he would leave. She knew he would, then she would have no one left of the family that she she would give up everything to belong to.

There was a brief silence, Charlie was hesitating, wondering whether or not it was a good idea to let Jasper in. Finally he exhaled heavily and Bella heard the creak of the door as Charlie opened it wider to let Jasper in.

Bella watched as Jasper and Charlie entered the room and almost smiled when she saw Jasper's face, his curly golden blonde hair, his muscular frame, the small smile that he gave her was dazzling, his warm golden eyes though, looked pained, saddened, as broken as Bella imagined hers must look.

"Jasper," Bella said quietly, her voice cracking, as she began to pull her exhausted body into a sitting position, but Jasper shook his head, walking quickly over to her and pressing a gentle hand to her shoulder, urging her to lay down once again before he sat on the edge of the couch by her feet.

"I'll. . .just be in the other room then. . ." Charlie said uncertainly before hurrying out of the room and into the kitchen.

"Why are you here Jasper? I'm not mad at you, everyone makes mistakes," Bella said, her voice even sounding dead to herself.

"I'm not leaving Forks," Jasper said quietly.

"But what about Alice?" Bella asked.

"We broke up, all she did was say that there were 'better things to come for me' and that she 'could no longer be with me'," Jasper said and Bella felt her heart break once again for him. Him and Alice had been together forever, they had meant so much to each other, and now like me and Edward were. Bella sat up, shaking her head.

"Oh Jasper," Bella whispered, fresh tears coming to her eyes, crying for both of them as she wrapped her arms around Jasper and buried her head in his cold marble chest, something that was dangerous considering that he was the vampire that had tried to kill her not so long ago, "I'm so sorry,".

"Me too, Edward is an idiot," Jasper said.

"Alice too," Bella said with a sigh, pulling away from Jasper, who seemed to be having zero self control problems at the time, but she didn't want to push it, she didn't care if she died, but she did care if Charlie saw her former boyfriend's adopted brother suck all of the blood from her body. Jasper flashed her a small smile, a sad smile, but still dazzling.

"Bella, I know that you don't want me to apologize for your birthday, but I should. I shouldn't have lost control. If it wasn't for me then everything would be fine right now, neither of us would have our hearts broken," Jasper said.

"It wasn't your fault, it was mine, I'm not careful enough," Bella said, "I was in a house full of vampires, and I bled, how stupid can I get?" Bella snorted, and she felt a wave of happiness flow over her, a wave that she tried to fight, she wasn't happy, she was anything but happy.

"You're not stupid Bella, you're only human," Jasper said.

"I know, it sucks to be me doesn't it?" Bella asked.

"Me too," Jasper muttered before standing up, "I'll be at the house if you need me, drop by sometime this week and I promise that I'll try not to kill you," he added, the slightest of smirks gracing his lips.

"I will," Bella promised, giving him a small smile before laying back down on the couch and closing her eyes, barely listening as Jasper talked briefly with Charlie before leaving.

Edward may never be coming back, but at least she had Jasper.

A/N: So this was the first chapter of my first purely Twilight fanfic, and I personally think that it wasn't bad. So leave a review and tell me what you think, the next chapter will be up tonight!
