(JPOV)

I was pacing. What was I supposed to do? I had no idea. Is Emmett trying to drive me loopy? Does Alice know what happened? IS EDWARD HEARING MY THOUGHTS RIGHT NOW?!

I stopped dead in my tracks and waited for him to burst through the door to mine and Alice's bedroom, but he never did. I kept still, trying to listen for any indication that he was troubled, and felt nothing. Maybe I was safe for the moment, but probably not for long. He must be out with Bella tonight. Hopefully she was distracting his view on everyone else's minds, that could give me some time to think.

I started pacing again. I walked over to the dresser and took a look at myself in the mirror. Awful. I had the expression one would have if 'they'd been freaking out in a fetal position in the corner of a room'; which I hadn't done yet. But one day Emmett would drive me to that breaking point.

"What are you going to do Jasper?" I said aloud to myself.

"Do about what dear?" Alice had appeared at my side. She looked beautiful in the mirror, my angel.

I twisted around to face her. She had a pleasant expression on her face, an innocent expression. She doesn't know.

"Oh.. I placed a bet with Emmett on the next baseball scores. We bet more than the usual this time, so I just hope I beat him" I had to come up with an excuse. It's so hard to lie to her.

"Hopefully this won't involve Rosalie's collection of miniskirts again I trust?" She loved to bring up old shenanigans. A smile filled her face.

"Not this time, nothing too rash I promise." I was starting to calm down.

"Well alright, I was just coming up to tell you Emse, Rosalie, and I are off this weekend to go hunting."

"Bag a grizzly Alice, for me" I knew for such a small creature, she could take down some pretty big beasts. She's a great hunter.

"Alright. But could you do me a favor?"

"Uh-huh, sure" she had surprised me a bit.



"Don't let Bella go through my closet okay?" her eyes traveled over to the oak door of the wardrobe.

"Well okay, but why would she? You know she hates having to deal with clothes and everything" I stuttered out.

"Well..." She lowered her voice to a whisper and said "Because I've got a surprise in there". She gave me that grin that could make me jump over the moon for her, I nodded.

"Thanks Jazzy, see you soon." She gave me a kiss and was out of the room before I knew it.

I felt much more at ease than before. I took in a refreshing breath and let it out. Alice can always cheer me up.

I ran my hands through my hair to clear my head. I know what I'll do, I won't let Emmett take me down with him this time. If he falls he'll fall, and I won't get blamed just because I got sucked into this mess.

I smirked, that's what I'll do. I'll put my foot down this time.

With that, I walked out of the bedroom and started to go down the steps. To find him.
