Chapter Two: Two can play that game
Jpov
I watch as Bella ascended the stairs god she was sexy when she was upset. Whoa what the hell Whitlock what has gotten into you this is your brother's fiancé, your mate's best friend. You can't be having those thoughts. But I would be lying to myself if I said it wasn't true. When I first felt the lust rolling off her I thought she was thinking of Edward. But then I realized that as she looked at me they got stronger but were quickly demised and replaced with guilt.
Then I got confused because the more she looked at me the more she felt guilty and worried. I mean was she worried that I would say something to Edward or maybe she wasn't thinking about me hell she might not even be thinking about Edward maybe she was thinking about the young werewolf Jacob I believe was his name. Maybe she was worried that I wasn't fully in control of my bloodlust. No that couldn't be it Edward would have never left her with me. There could be many possibilities to her worry but how would that explain the guilt. But when I ask her about her emotions she cusses me out and storms up to Edward's room. Damn even when she cusses it sounds sexual I wonder how it would sound if I was plunging into her hot little core from behind.
Whoa I got to stop with the sexual thoughts. I listen for Bella then I reached out to get a feel for her emotions and she had calm down but there was still a little lust mingled in with her calmness. I decided to go see what she was up to I mean she can't stay in that room forever. Just as I reached Edward's door my phone buzzed I looked down to see the name Alice.
"Hel…" "Jasper why am I getting a vision of Bella not eating please feed her. It's hard enough to get Edward to leave her side now . He would never leave her if you don't feed her and make sure she eats don't let her get by with saying she is not hungry." She said all of this before I could even get Hello all the way out.
"Well Hello to you to Alice I'm fine by the way" "I'm sorry Jasper that I cut straight to Bella's human needs it's just Emmett had to restrain Edward from running back to the house and pulling your legs off for not making sure Bella eats." "God Alice you guys make it seem like she's a pet and not a person. Look I'll tell her she needs to eat but I won't force her she can make that decision on her own on whether she wants to eat or not."
I heard her sigh then pulled the phone away to say something to Edward she got back on the phone a few seconds later. " Fine Jasper as long as she tell her she needs to eat then I guess that's all you can do." And with that and our goodbyes to one another I was once again at Edward's door. I knocked because that was the polite thing to do plus no one knocks in this house anymore well okay maybe that's just Emmett. I heard her move around against the comforter on the bed and her breathing hitched as well as the lust.
Wow Jasper your not even in the room an she's lusting after you. I was broken out of my train of thought when she softly said "come in Jasper". I open the door and there she was the little vixen herself sitting against the headboard of the bed . " Bella can you forgive me?"
Bpov
"Bella can you forgive me?"
Why is he apologizing to me I wasn't even really that mad about him asking about my emotions. Hell if anything I should be embarrassed but I can't find it in myself to feel that way. Or maybe he feels the need to apologize for my disastrous 18th birthday again. Oh shit he's looking at me again with amusement dancing in his eyes.
"Uh why do I need to forgive you?" He looked down and then looked back up at me like a child would when they are afraid of being scolded for something they did. "Because I forgot that you needed to eat. And well Alice called saying that if I didn't make sure you eat Edward was going to come home and rip my legs off." He stop his ranting for a minute and smirked. " Yeah as if your precious Edward could rip my legs off. Besides I told them I can't force you to do anything you didn't want to do." Again he smirked that sexy little smirk of his. "But then again I could make you but I rather you make your own decisions. Unlike Eddie who thinks he knows what's best for you but he can't know what's best for you because he's not you."
He had this look of irritation upon his face but then I realized what he just said and he was right. Edward always thought he knew what was best for me to the point where I don't think I made any of my own decisions anymore. I was like his little puppet when I'm around him I talked when spoken too, I ate when he told me too, I didn't push his damn boundaries because it wasn't safe. Oh my god even Alice had a go at being the puppet master every time she played Bella Barbie. Around those two I was never just Bella. But being here with Jasper I could be myself he didn't judge me or look down on me. He treated me like a person and not a porcelain doll.
"Okay Jasper I'll eat something so that it will ease the mind of the puppeteers I mean Edward and Alice." He looked at me for a minute and then he burst out laughing. Why was he laughing I mean not that I mind him laughing but why. Then it dawned on me I said that out loud I instantly felt the heat in my face from the blush I'm sure was there. When he stop laughing he held out his hand for me to take.
" Well then darlin' let's get you fed before the puppeteers call back to pull more strings." I looked up and he was smiling I thought he would be upset that I just called his little pixie wife a puppeteer. I watch as his smile faded and he lowered his hand. "I'm sorry Bella I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable."
Him make me uncomfortable yeah right no he makes me think things that shouldn't even enter my mind. I stood up and reach for his hand. " Jasper you don't make me uncomfortable actually I feel like I can be myself around you." As my hand came in contact with his I lost all train of thought as I felt the shock travel throughout my body. I turn to look at him with I'm pretty sure the same shock look that he held he had felt that too. He lean in his eyes never leaving mine his lips inches from mine. Just as he was about to close the distance between us my stomach decided to announce it's hunger. He leaned back and shook his head as if to shake off the feelings that still clung to the air. I almost kissed Jasper but the scary thing is that I wanted to and I still wanted to kiss him to feel his lips upon me anywhere he would like to put them. Before I could say anything to him he had me in his arms racing me down the stairs to the kitchen where he placed me once again on my feet.
" You know I can walk all by myself I have been for 18 years now." He chuckled . "Yeah well you my dear Bella would have still been standing upstairs having some kind of internal battle. Instead of coming to the kitchen and eating something." I started to say something but my stomach interrupted. He smirked as if he had just made his point. I decided if he was going to be cocky then I was going to be daring. I brushed past making sure he felt the heat coming off my body. Sauntering over to the refrigerator I threw a glance back over my shoulder. He was still standing there his eyes were slightly darker then before and he had a look that I could only describe as lust. I turned my attention back to my food choices ah spaghetti Esme was the best cook that I know and her spaghetti was amazing. As I heated up my food I turned to face Jasper.
" You know you don't have to watch me eat I capable of doing that on my own as well." He looked at me like I had hurt his feelings. "Bella I know you are capable of feeding yourself I just thought you would like some company but since you don't I'll leave you to eat in peace." He turned to walk away. " Wait Jasper I didn't mean it like that it's just everyone watches me like I'm a science project while I'm eating. Please don't go I would actually love your company." He turned around with an amused smile on his face. Shit I played right into his little mind game. He wasn't really hurt he just wanted me to believe I hurt his feelings.
"You know Jasper you really are the king when comes to being an ass." He chuckled " So I take it you don't like my acting skills." I turned to get my plate to take to the table as I sat down I got an idea that would wipe that smirk right off of Jasper's face. I twirled my spaghetti around my fork and slowly lifted it to my mouth. Pulling a noodle in between my lips making slurping sound with a soft moan at the end. I did this a few times before I finally looked across the table to see Jasper's eyes had darken to darkest black I have ever seen. He was gripping the seat so hard that I was sure he was going to break it.
I gave him an innocent look as I licked my lips "What?" He cleared his throat "Nothing, maybe I should just wait in the living room until you're finished then we can watch a movie or play a game." Play a game I like to play a game with him alright one that involves me screaming his name. " Uh sure Jasper I'll be in there as soon as I clean up my dishes."
With that said he quickly exited the kitchen leaving me sitting there with a smirk upon my face. Yes Jasper let the games begin I was wondering how far I could go without actually acting on some of the dirty little thoughts I was having about Jasper. Only one way to find out I got up wash my few dishes then set off to the living room to put my plan to work.
