I do not own Twilight or any of the characters, I'm just borrowing them.

Jaspers POV

It was oddly strange being able to sit back and think whatever I wanted to think. No matter how selfish, or dirty or nasty my thoughts were, for once they were my thoughts and mine alone. Some days it got really old, really fast having Edward in my head.

I knew I should be feeling some form of sympathy for him, Bella's arrival had really thrown him off balance, but with Alice being so secretive and hyped up, it was hard to feel anything else. And anyway if he was running away from the one girl that he had had feelings for since he was changed, then all I could feel was pity. He really didn't know what he was missing.

As I thought this Alice emerged from our massive dressing room/closet wearing a flimsy little negligee, very pale pink with the most delicate roses embroidered on the hem. Material so delicate it would disintegrate under my hands.

I was lying back against the headboard, and Alice climbed onto the end of the bed looking up at me with big, amber, doe eyes. I could feel myself rising to the occasion. She crawled up to sit on my lap. I closed my eyes as her lips brushed along my jaw line, down my neck to find my collar bone. I inhaled her scent and moved my hands from her hips up her sides lifting the flimsy underwear as I went.

Alice sat up and flipped her hair back. As she did this I opened my eyes to drink in her lovely shape. And was shocked beyond words to see Bella's face floating right in front of my eyes.

Which suddenly turned black as the midnight sky as I threw her from my body. Snarls erupting from my chest as I felt my hunger flare.

I bolted from the bed so fast and straddled her body that I didn't hear my name being called.

It sounded like I was under water, that garbled, dull, distant sound when your under the bath water and someone tries to talk to you. I grabbed the underwear in my hands and ripped it to shreds in my haste to get to her bare flesh.

*SLAP*

The hand meeting my face was enough to bring me back to reality.

Under my strong muscular body was my tiny pixie wife. Alice, eyes wide and filled with shock, terror rolling off her so strong it knocked me backwards.

"What the hell was that Jazz?" She rose gracefully from the floor to retrieve her bathrobe.

"I…uh, I don't know what happened Ally. It just…oh god im so sorry. Did I hurt you."

I reached out toward her to make sure she was ok. She pushed my hand away from her cheek.

"I have never felt so much rage from you before. What were you thinking?"

I didn't know how to respond. I had never kept secrets from Alice before, but I knew how much Bella meant to her already. If I admitted that I wanted to rip her throat out, to taste her sweet blood running down my throat, to watch the life drain out of her eyes, Alice would think me a monster, she may possibly choose Bella over me and make me leave.

"I…(think Jazz, think)…Im sorry, it was like I had a flashback to my days with Maria, I didn't mean to hurt you. It will never happen again." Would she buy the lie?

"Oh Jazz," she looked so sympathetic, "Its ok, I know those days were hard on you. Your safe now. She's never coming back."

After 50 years away from Maria I felt awful for using her as my excuse, but I had no choice.

And I really had no choice but to stay away from Bella.

Alice's POV

That was the most scary I had ever seen Jasper in all our time together. Even in my visions of him while he was still with Maria, I had never feared him like I did now. The anger and hate rolling off him when he attacked me was so incredibly scary.

When he explained that it was due to a Maria based flashback I could understand though. Maria had made him do unspeakable things under her service.

I could feel the worry seeping out of him as he watched me thinking about what just happened.

"Its ok Jazz, I know it was an accident. Im fine. Really." I hated to see him so desolate. "Lets go for a hunt and take your mind off it."

I skipped off to the closet to pick out an outfit, trying to show Jasper that I really was fine, and there was no harm done.

Once I was dressed in skinny jeans, a pale blue singlet and flat boots, we went out to our favourite hunting spot.

Belles POV

I was still reeling from Edward Cullen's reaction to me in biology when I awoke the next morning. What a strange gut he was. It wasn't like I said anything at all to him.

I showered, dressed and ate breakfast, all while trying to figure out what to say to him when I saw him today. I had to confront him. It seemed he had unfairly judged me, and I couldn't let that go.

Pompous Git.

The day passed without a sighting of Edward. I had seen the rest of his family, but when I had tried to approach them to ask where he was, they had all risen and left the table to go to their next classes.

Driving home from school, I felt unsettled, like someone was watching me. Pulling into the driveway at Charlies house ( I suppose its my house now too) I glanced in my rear view mirror and was sure I saw a flash of someone in the tree line across the road. No they moved way to fast to be human.

I made a note to myself to ask Charlie about wild animals in the area.

A/N: Ok here's the deal, I see a lot of people have read this story but only 1 person took the time to review. Thank you to .Girl for taking the time to do that.

This is the second story I am writing and to be honest, if I don't get a few more reviews I wont be updating.

Im doing this around raising 2 young boys, (2 years and a 3 month old) so if people don't review, I don't know your enjoying it, and I will stop writing.

So if you actually care where this is going hit the button VVV its right there.

Thank you in advance.
