Her eyes narrowed, the color of golden honey. She ignored their pitiful excuses and stepped away from the scene of her husband, naked, and in bed with her also naked 'sister'. The brown haired vampire ran full speed out of the doors of her and Edward's cottage. Jumping over the river, Bella landed gracefully, like a lioness.

Upon entering the huge, white house known as the Cullen household, she walked past a confused Jasper Hale. His golden hair fell into his also honey eyes as he looked at Bella in confusion. "What's wrong, Bella?" he asked. His voice was deep, musical, and just plain beautiful. "What were Alice and Edward doing?. . .Bella?!" He caught the brunette when she fell to her knees, dry sobbing.

Bella silently sent a prayer of thanks that Renesmee was at La Push with Jacob at the moment. Not here, where she would be seeing her mother crying in her empath uncle's arms; all because her father was cheating on her mother with her aunt Alice. "Jasper," Bella whispered, looking at him sadly. He froze. "I'm so sorry." She looked like she was about to choke.

Jasper pushed the crying female back gently so he could look her in the eyes. Grabbing onto her shoulders, he asked frantically:

"What do you mean, Bella? What's going on?!" The blond shook her lightly.

Bella choked down another sob. Jasper took this time to read her emotions.

Hurt. Anger. Heart-break. Depression. Betrayal.

"T-they...?" he gasped. "N-no! Alice wouldn't do that to me! A-and Edward would never do that to you!" He nearly stopped breathing at the brown haired girl's next words.

"I'm so sorry, Jazz," she choked, collapsing in his arms. He rested his head on top of hers, venom tears running down his deathly pale, handsome face.

They didn't know how long they stayed in each other's embraces, but when their emotions receded somewhat, they pulled away, a little embarrassed by the slightly intimate position they were in. Bella would've blushed when Jasper softly kissed her tears away, had she no have been a vampire.

"Thank you," she spoke softly to him. "You know, for catching me when I fell. I know it wouldn't have hurt me but ---" Her rambling was cut off when Jasper placed a gentle kiss on her lips.

Resting his hand on top of hers, he smiled softly. "I would and will catch you anytime you fall, Bella dearest. Anytime."

She smiled back and thought:

Thank you for cheating, Edward. You have just guided me to someone who is a lot better than you and surely cares a lot more for me than you ever did. . . Thank you.
