Crush by David Archuleta

Verse 2-4

'cause the possibility

that you would ever feel the same way about me

it's just too much, just too much

Why do I keep running from the truth?

All I ever think about its you

you got me hypnotized, so mesmerized

And I've just got to know

Do you ever think when you're all alone

All that we can be, where this thing can go?

Am I crazy or falling in love?

Is it real or just another crush?

do you catch your breath when I look at you?

Are you holding back like the way I do?

'cause I'm trying and trying to walk away

but I know this crush ain't goin' away-ay-ay-ay-ayy

Goin' away-ay-ay-ayy

Alice's point of view

"oh my god, that freak emo Jasper is looking at you again Alice"

Jasper Hale, the 'freak' as Rosalie liked to call him (she was only mad that he was the only guy who didn't pay attention to her), wasn't that freaky at all. There was more to than my friends knew. Besides it wasn't like he was ugly or weird looking, he didn't even dress in all black like the typical emo stereotype one might think of. You couldn't deny that Jasper was gorgeous as anyone can be. It was just his way of acting that made people dislike him and call him stupid and unjustified names.

" you guys stop it! Why do you have to be so mean?"

it wasn't like I hadn't caught him staring… always staring. It was a lunch routine sort of thing, on of my friends (Rosalie usually) would openly point out that Japer Hale was looking at me. Being discoverer he turned away and didn't dare show his face again.

" why do you even bother smiling at him Alice? It's only going to make him stare more"

Sharing all my classes with him, i knew for a fact that Jasper was intelligent, kind and caring. There was more to him though, a side of him that was almost mysterious. The way he looked at me with his deep dark green eyes made me secretly tremble. It was almost as if his eyes screamed ' I want you.'

"besides doesn't he know its rude to stare at people?"

"Rosalie you stare at Emmet all the time, don't you think he might feel freaked out also?"

" its not the same thing Alice" and then she stuck her tongue out at me

of course It wasn't the same thing because unlike Rosalie (who was all over Emmet all the time) Jasper was way to shy to even say hi to me. He liked to be alone, always seeming to be in deep though, as if something was bothering him, as if he was in pain all the time. am sure he wasn't, but it didn't help him make friends either way. It made me feel sad almost, seeing him alone all the time because if I was being honest with myself, I was secretly attracted to Jasper. I liked the way he stared at me with his gorgeous green eyes. I liked the way he hid his face whenever he saw that I had caught him staring, mostly I loved the way he seemed to be aware of no one but me. Maybe that was why I felt the urge and craving to smile at him every time he stared.

"Alice! Alice!"

"snap out of it Alice!'

"what??"

"lunch is over honey, your going to be late for class" Edward, always so kind I didn't deserve such a nice brother.

"oh right, thanks Edward, stupid Rosalie left me again"

"you know its not their fault you fall asleep during lunch"

"I wasn't sleeping… I was… daydreaming"

" about?"

"umm nothing, nothing really Ill see you later"

of course I could never tell my friends that I liked Jasper. Alice Cullen dating Jasper Hale, I wonder what Edward would say, probably nothing, but who was I kidding Jasper was never going to be brave enough to ask me out for that to happen (and i did want it to happen) I would have to step in and help him out. something I was more than willing to do.

Jasper's point of view

Another boring day, another boring school. my life is such a drag! To think that I still have an eternity left. How much i regret drinking that stupid water, I could have been dead and resting peacefully already. To make matter worse this stupid Infatuation I developed for the Cullen girl is driving me insane. I cant take my eyes of her. Maybe I should quit school its not like I haven't been to collage already.

"hello Jasper how are you today?" Alice Cullen talking to me? She's probably going to complain and tell me how freaked out she is by my staring. I knew this was going to happen.

"oh umm… umm am fine?" she laughs, of course she's going to laugh I sound like and utter moron.

"well ok then I guess ill see you later" where was this coming from… Who am I kidding am madly in love with this girl. Ever since I laid eyed on her I couldn't get her out of my mind. not only is she absolutely beautiful, there's something special about her. Why did I have to fall in love now? When I had given up on love and trying to find that special one to whom I could finally share my secret to, and know that they would understand and love me no matter what I was. Because I wasn't normal, I had been left behind completely, forgotten by time. I was destined to live forever never changing. A stupid mistake that had condemned me for eternity. Alice Cullen could not possibly be that someone I had been waiting for so long… but what if she was? Its not like it would make a big difference, we could never live a normal life together, an I couldn't possibly condemn her to a life of misery because as fascinating as immortality sounds its pure hell.
