Jasper POV

I was sitting at home drawing when I heard the angelic voice of Bella. Her laugh was contagious and sounded like heaven's bells calling out to me. I snuck around the corner to see her and I knew she would be pretty but my god I was almost brought to my knees by the sight before me. She was pale skinned, long wavy chestnut hair, pools of chocolate for eyes and curvy in all the right areas. I could hear Emmett boasting about his homemade mexican food but all I could focus on was her. I walked slowly into the kitchen for a bottle of water and whispered a hello to the angel before I quickly retreated to my room. I didn't want to seem rude but I knew I would say something inappropriate since she has a boyfriend.

Later that night I heard Emmett and Alice head off to bed but I heard a third set of footsteps head off to the living room and stop at the fireplace. I wonder what she is doing. I snuck back upstairs so no one would hear me and thats when I heard my beautiful angel crying. She was trying to be discreet but I could hear the sniffles and the pain in the room was overwhelming. I was trying to get closer to see her face better when I accidentally bumped Emmett's gym bag on the floor. I heard her gasp and turn around and I knew I had been caught but before I could apologize I was lost in her eyes again. I could see her pain and straight into her soul and thats when I saw it, she was it, the world just shifted at that point. Nothing else mattered but her and I didn't even know why. Barely able to breathe I spoke and told her exactly what she needed to hear then left. I know I should have comforted her but I was trying to catch my breath and understand what I just felt when I looked into her eyes. It was the most powerful feeling I'd ever had and it was borderline pain and pleasure. Like looking into her I was hurting because I needed to be closer but it was like I was home. I stayed in my room whenever she was around after that because I didn't even know what to do with myself, I didn't understand what I was feeling and I didn't want to scare her.

A week after she came into my life I heard her and Alice leave to see her boyfriend, I guess she found him, I should be happy for her but inside I am seething with jealousy. I foolishly wanted to believe she was here for me. After about an hour I hear the car door slam and Bella come rushing into the house crying and Alice desperately trying to convince her to stay. Wait stay? She is leaving? She cant leave how am I ever going to see her again? I hear them talking but I cant understand what they are saying then I hear Alice head upstairs. I hear drawers and cabinets open and close so I guess she is packing up to leave. I don't know what to do, I don't want her to leave, not yet.

Suddenly I have the perfect idea. I call my CO and ask for time off to head home for unspecified reasons, he doesn't question me because I rarely ever ask for time off and I begin to quietly pack my bags. As I am about to head to find Bella I hear the front door crash open and a man yelling her name. He runs past my door to the laundry room where he finds Bella packing the rest of her things. I can hear him pleading with her to forgive him but I hear nothing from Bella. I walk around the corner to the room and I see her on the floor and him squatting behind her kissing her neck. I just stare at her silently pleading for her to turn and look at me. Please let her see me please let her remember what I told her, suddenly as if hearing my thoughts she glances over to me and I mouth 'Don't settle' to her and she snaps at him. They begin to argue and then i hear him push her, I come back around the corner just in time to see him grab her off the floor and throw her across the room. I see red. I don't even know what all I did to him, next thing I know Emmett is pulling me off of him. I hear people talking, police arrive and are talking to me but all I see is my beautiful angel being taken away in an ambulance. He hurt her, did I kill him, what happened. Emmett comes over to me and explains what happened, i didn't kill him 'yet', and Bella has to get some stitches.

I tell them I am leaving to go home for a few weeks and that Ill call later and head out to the airport. I arrive at the airport and buy two tickets to Texas, I just hope I can convince her to come with me. I wait for about an hour in the far corner of the terminal until she finally arrives.

I see her sitting in the terminal waiting for a flight to come available. I quickly walk to her and stand in her line of sight

"Are you really going home?" I ask

"Yes" Bella replies solomnly

"Where is home for you?"

"Forks, Washington but there are no flights available until tomorrow" she says

"Well my home is Victoria, Texas and there is a flight ready now, you can come with me if you like….then take a flight to Washington or you can stay with me."

"Well I - " Bella begins to protest

"I want you to come with me, I want to take you to see my home. I think you will love it but if you hate it then Ill take you straight to the airport no strings attached. I know we don't know each other very well But I don't want your vacation to be over like this. He doesn't deserve your tears and I want to put a smile on your face even just for a few days. Please?"

"ok" she agrees

I grab her bags and head toward the terminal and we board the plane.
