Chapter 2: Smokes--
Jasper gracefully ran into his home and swiftly went to his wife to give her a swift kiss on the cheek. As soon as he ended his quick moment of elation due to the love he had for his wife he smelled a scent all too familiar.
"Whose in my smokes?" he asked his family members around him though he knew the answer. Only one other person ever got into them and only when she was in a certain mood. A foul one, but not necessary a foul mood created by sallow reasons. "Rosalie?" he asked quietly. A solemn nod came from Edward and Jasper looked over to Emmett to see if his brother's face would give him any more clues on the matter? "Why aren't you up there with her?"
"Nobody can get to her when she's in her foul mood...well this kind of foul mood," Emmett said and Jasper could sense the waves of sadness rolling off of him. Emmett was better then Jasper's gift when it came to calming Rosalie but not when Rosalie got into the smoking mood. "Besides she didn't want me. She wanted you."
"Me?" Jasper asked though he wasn't sure whether or not to be surprised. He was very close to his twin sister after all, but to prefer his company to Emmett's? "Can anybody tell me what happened?"
"I told her about her brother," Esme said. Jasper remained confused and everyone felt it. "I told her about her brother Anton and what happened between he and I during the time of her transformation." Esme finished this as to clear up Jasper's confusion but it still remained. Edward raised his eyebrow delicately.
"Maybe you never knew that story too," Edward said baffled. "Well I guess nobody thought to tell you."
"Would you just tell me," Jasper sounded slightly exasperated. And so he heard from a woeful Esme and an Edward who decided to elaborate at certain times during Esme's telling of the tale. "And you never told her all this time?" Jasper asked astounded. "No wonder she would get in this mood. But what made you tell her now?"
"I saw what would seem like a doppelganger of him today," Esme said simply. There was a slight thud from above.
"You didn't tell her that part of it till now, did you?" Esme sighed and shook her head. She looked up worriedly as she saw her daughter descend the stairs. "I'm sorry I didn't say anything dear. I just didn't want to break all the news at once." Rosalie ignored her as she descended at a human pace with slight uncertainty in her steps. She carried a lit cigar in her hand.
"You," Jasper said to his sister.
"You," was her reply.
"Mind if I take that smoke from you?" he asked as he swaggered over and took it from her by force. He put it in his mouth and blew a load of smoke on her face with a smirk. She looked affronted. "How many did you take from me?" Jasper asked looking at her full pockets.
"Only three," she said with a sweet smile. If Bella did not know any better, she would have thought Rosalie was intoxicated. She swaggered a bit as Jasper gave her a scolding look. "O come now, Anton," she said with a giggle. "It's not like it's going to harm my lungs and kill me."
"I never should have introduced you to them," Jasper said letting the name change slide. This was not the first time he had been called that by an unknowing Rosalie.
"Well, well I know you want some too, say why not we get outta here and go for a smoke?"
"Promise to talk to me while we are out?"
"Why so serious," she pouted as she looked over at her twins unwavering face. "Fine. Which car Anton, yours or mine?"
"In your state, mine," Jasper said as he continued, to Bella's surprise, smoke the cigar.
"Oh, alright? Well she you all," she said as she walked out. She blew Emmett a kiss at the doorway with Jasper following after her. He turned around to face the bewildered family.
"I'll try to bring her back in once piece."
