Chapter two.

Bella POV

The trip to the airport was not as emotional as I expected, the taxi driver attempted to make small talk but was quickly thwarted when I wasn't putting any effort into the conversation. A lone tear made its way down my cheek when we turned at the end of the street. No looking back now Isabella. We're in this together.

I mentally hugged myself, I knew that no matter what my mind and I would always be together. Mental Bella was almost like a separate person to myself, she was the perfect version of me. She's fit and graceful, her hair is luxurious and soft, skin always perfected. But her eyes were never the same to my own, they always had a red/yellow tinge to them and this was something I never really understood.
No matter how many times I had asked her the question, she had always disappeared in a matter of seconds.

I nodded to the taxi-driver as I got out of the car, he helped me get my bags out of the boot and I started my way towards the departure gates. There were many people moving about in the airport, it didn't take long for some impatient jerk to push in front of me which always resulted the same way, with me falling over.

I cursed softly and began to gather all my bags together again, when I noticed someone had a hand extended to help me up. I stared stupidly at the hand, noticing the smallest light radiating from them. What the hell?

I looked up from the hand and saw the most stunning creature in front of me, he was lean and from my guesses near 6"2'. His hair was golden but it was made up from many different colours, his jaw was made from a Greek god himself, chiselled beyond all believe.
His eyes are what kept me on the ground, they were the purest gold I have ever seen, although they swam with emotions running a million miles an hour, confusion, hurt, fear, hunger? It's almost as I recognised the last emotion that the gold began to slowly darken. Mental Isabella came forefront of my brain and began to hiss, she seemed to be hissing at this man in front of me. Why on earth that she'd be going that, I don't know.

"Miss?" The god before me wasn't Greek, but rather a Texan? I began to stutter in my head, a lot of um's, ah's and huh's were on repeat. I couldn't stop looking into his eyes, he seemed to have me paralysed within his gaze. Deer in headlights rings forth.

"Yes?" I managed to blurt out. His hand was still reaching out, my hand was on he ground limp.

"Did ya'll need assistance?" His eyebrow shot up


Jasper POV

I don't even know what I was doing in Arizona, this was one of the worst places that a vampire who sparkles like a fucking fairy could be. However, because of that know-it-all Peter needed to talk to me, I had to come all the way out here. What the hell was he even doing in Arizona in the first place?
I kept feeling all emotions running around me, humans were awful to be around when they were in a bad mood. Impatience was rolling off most people with tinges of hate, anger and frustration.

I felt a bolt of shock and humiliation run through me, and I turned to locate the source of this emotion. I turned just in time to see an angry business man force a small young girl to the ground, he didn't even stop to help her up, to be completely honest I doubted he even noticed she fell.
Walking a little faster than normal I went straight to the girl in question, looking down at her I could see she was embarrassed but also resigned to what I don't know. I picked up her bags and righted them before she had a chance to do so, from there I held my hand out to her in a gesture to help her up. For a few moments I didn't think she'd even seen me, or she'd decided to ignore everyone to get away from the humiliation.

That was until I noticed her emotions tumbling out of her, embarrassment turned into shock and fascination, which quickly changed to confusion and fear. It was natural for humans to avoid vampires, we were their natural predators. Looking down her hair was so long and looked incredibly soft, her skin was flushed red but it made her ivory skin delectable. Her tank top left nothing to the imagination, it was clear she was young but she was developing into a lovely young woman, the hips were widening as she was growing, this made my eyes travel upwards to watch her chest expand with every short breath she took.
Her neck was graceful and looked as if my lips would settle between her neck and shoulder perfectly, my hand would fit perfectly on her waist. I was surprised that she still hadn't taken my hand by this point, but her eyes quickly trailed from my hand to my eyes, I saw appreciation and wonder as we looked into each others eyes.

I felt my own eyes darken as the monster inside began to seek control, how little effort it would take to get her to come with me, somewhere secret so I could show her the wonders of the world. Shaking my head I snapped out of that train of thought, too quick for any human to notice.

"Miss?" My Texan drawl had come out full focus, this was a rare occurrence that only seemed to happen when I had lost some part of my control.

After approximately 3.5 seconds she managed a simple "yes?" I almost smirked at the doe like eyes.

"Did ya'll need some assistance?" I tilted my head slightly as my eyebrow shot up, surely the hand outstretched would of been a clue as to what I was offering. Although there was a side of me that was glad none of my family was around to witness my Texan drawl, this seemed to be exactly when they'd whisk me away in fear of me "slipping".

"Uh... No... Thank you?" Her hand small and soft touched mine and I helped her up, probably in hindsight a little too quickly as when righted she stumbled slightly. I placed my other hand on her waist until I was certain she wouldn't fall again.

"Will you be alright now?" I bent over slightly to look into her eyes. She just nodded her head, little mute angel. "Good, good. You be safe ya hear?" I ruffled her hair and began to walk away, only once she started walking towards her departure gate did I glance behind me. My eyes traced up her legs to the glorious ass she had. I smirked to myself knowing that I'll remember my mute angel until the end of time.

I walked into an airport bar that Peter and I agreed to meet at, sat towards the back that gave us a semblance of privacy in the busy place, we didn't leave because we both knew we had somewhere else to be after this meeting, and no point having to travel all the way back to the airport to go there. I didn't know if he would bring Charlotte with him or not, so I made sure to get a table with at least three seats.

As I waited, my little mute angel was running through my mind, her brown doe eyes were at the forefront of my mind. Her glorious rose lips always pouted or in a 'o' of astonishment. I wonder what it would look like in a different kind of 'o'... I felt the lust running through my mind, and it's only when I heard an uncomfortable cough that I reigned it in, smirking as I looked up into the red eyes of my brother. I got up and hugged him to me, along with his delectable mate and my sister Charlotte.

"Well if it isn't the major himself." Peter winked at Charlotte at our little nickname. "I'm glad you came brother."

"Well I couldn't very well ignore your spider-sense, now could I?" I sat back down at the table opposite them, charlotte was all smiles it was lovely to see.

"Obviously, did you like my surprise?" Peter was nearly jumping out of his seat.

"Surprise?" Was my angel his surprise? No of course not, that'd be silly.

"Did ya'll need some assistance?" Peter's drawl was seriously over pronounced, I think if I could've blushed I would have.

"Wait, you saw me?" I just stared at him.

"Naturally brother, I thought you'd like my surprise. Charlotte told me to tell you, but I thought it'd be more fun this way. Where is she by the way? I saw in my know-it-all sense we'd be meeting her today too." He looked around quickly, but naturally couldn't find her.

"Uh, I don't know. I helped her up, and sent her on her way. Don't even know her name or where she lives. Besides she's a human for pete's sake."

"I told ya'll to tell him, but no you had to try and make a prank out of it Peter Whitlock!" Charlotte looked angry.

"Why does it even matter, she's human. I doubt I'll even see her again." Peter kicked charlotte under the table to make her be quiet.

"You're right Jasper, I doubt you'll see her again. On to a new topic, are you heading back to the Cullen's in a moment?"

"Yes, my plane leaves in an hour. We're off to sunny Washington." I grimaced, the Cullen's never wanted to go to Texas because of the sun, but my goodness did I miss it.

"Ah Forks again brother?" I nodded once. "Then we shall see you soon, good luck brother." We all hugged each other.

"Know we love you Jasper. Good luck with everything, call if you need us." I hugged my sister and sent her all the love that I had for her and Peter, she sent it back to me. Our goodbye was short, but I know no matter where I go in the world, my siblings will always be there for us.

My phone buzzed in my pocket and I quickly opened it is, a text from peter popped up.
