Chapter Two

Rosalie POV

I descended the long staircase towards the living room, where Esme was giving Jasper the scolding of his life. He looked so helpless - his head was ducked down and we could all feel the shame that he was feeling. I smirked though; he deserved it. Alice followed behind me, Emmett with a frustrated expression on his face, and Edward was fuming. On the other hand, Alice didn't look bothered at all by this, which made me extremely mad. I turned to glare at her furiously, but all she did was grin. I gave her the finger.

"Rosalie" Esme said. "Watch it."

I rolled my eyes and sat on one of the several couches in the living room, facing Jasper. He knew I was mad, but he ignored me - he sure as hell did not want to face my wrath right now.

"Jasper, Jasper, Jasper" Esme began. "I don't know how many times we've gone through this, and it's every year, the same problem. You have to learn to use your talent with responsability, and not use it to mess with your siblings emotions. Now, you knew Rosalie and Emmett's punishment but you insisted on..." Esme made a face. "Having sex with Alice. You knew this was going to affect their emotions, yet you carried on with your task. I'm not going to punish you, but I will give you a warning Jasper. Next time I find out you mess with Rosalie and Emmett's emotions in any way other than to help them, I will give you a punishment, not only to you, but to Alice as well".

"Hey!" Alice complained. "It wasn't my fault!"

Esme pointed at Alice. "But you gave in to Jasper, also knowing this was going to affect Emmett and Rosalie, you are as guilty as he is Alice. I'm thinking about giving you the same speech about self control that I gave Rosalie and Emmett a decade after they married".

"No" Alice frowned. "Sorry Esme, it wont happen again". Alice looked at me and grinned. My mouth went into a little 'o'. She wanted to mess with me for some reason, for an unreasonable reason! I did nothing to her! Edward...what is she thinking? I looked at Edward, who just cringed. I will murder her. Edward snickered.

"I will make sure Carlisle hears about this. I will be back, and I better not hear any complains about you two when I get back!" Esme pointed at Jasper and Alice. "Rosalie...Emmett...your punishment is still on". Emmett groaned.

"Mom" He complained. "It's not fair!"

"It's been one day Emmett" Edward commented.

"I agree with him". I said at the same time as Edward. Esme looked at both of us.

"You need to learn to control your urges, so I trust you two to withstand the consequences of your actions. Now if you excuse me, Carlisle is waiting for me". Esme left the house faster than a bullet, and the purr of my BMW was heard throughout the house.

I grinned at Jasper. "Take that sucker" Emmett spoke before I did.

"Wait..." Alice interrupted. I glared at her again.

"Why should I even talk to you?" I turned around but Alice was in front of me in a blurr, her hands on my shoulders, trying to stop me from moving. I was stronger than Alice...

"Just listen for a second..." She said. I rolled my eyes and stayed still. "Don't you see? This is perfect, Esme won't even know. If we can push your self control far enough, I think Carlisle will have to unground you. I can't exactly see it, but I get flickers. If Jasper manages to make this too hard for you guys, Esme and Carlisle won't have a choice but to take away the punishment".

"But you guys will get in trouble". Edward commented. Shut up. He rolled his eyes.

"No we wont. Well maybe, but we'll find a way out. We always do".

Jasper spoke up for the first time. "So you used me?" Alice looked at Jasper annoyed. He understood and nodded. "Whats the plan?"

A/N: Cliffy. Sorry too tempting. Sorry if this was short. I wanted to keep thsi chapter as thorough as possible. I promise longer chapters for next time.
