A/N: Bleh. Kakabel is very angry. VERY angry. I won't be able to update for a while after this, maybe. There's a bunch of...family issues I need to take care of. Anyway, here's the chapter. I'm gonna clear up some confusion, this is a Jasper and Edward story. The actual story takes place when Jazzy is 17. The prologue was like, his early life or somethin.
Thanks to borishorti, for the inspiration for this chapter. She has good smelling lotion. And she typed this since I have no Internet connection at her house. Fail.

Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!

I groaned and hit the snooze on my alarm clock. I couldn't believe I had to go to school again so soon.

"Jasper, hurry and get ready for school!" Edward shouted up to my room.

Wow, he sounded so bitter. He was probably eager to leave.

"If I hurry up, would you stop screaming?" I said, smirking.

I could hear him growl in warning, but I just shrugged it off. Heaving myself off my bed, I grabbed my towel, some clean clothes, and headed off to the bathroom. I looked at my reflection in the mirror. My sky blue eyes looked back at me and my honey blond hair covered my forehead. I looked different. Clean. More civilized. It would be hard to guess that only a couple years prior, so little ago, I was on the streets, and now lived in a coven of vampires.

I sighed, turning away from my reflection and stepping into the shower. The water felt hot on my skin, and I remembered the day the Cullens took me in as their own.

I was walking down the street to the mall. A nice lady was kind enough to let me shower, give me some clothes, and a couple dollars. As I walked in i saw the short black haired girl. Her face looked blank, her eyes far away. I could see the guy with the bronze hair holding up her slim figure. She blinked and turned towards me, then to the guy. I could see their lips moving. He looked worried, while she just looked elated.

I turned away, but I felt a strong grip on my shoulder. It was her.

"H-how did you get over here so fast?" I asked nervously.

She ignored my question.

"Why do you live on the streets?"

"My father kicked me out of my house."

"But...why?"

I looked down at the floor, a blush creeping on my cheeks. "I'm gay." I whispered.

She looked positively heartbroken. The guy looked shocked, and his mouth dropped open.

"I'm Alice. This is Edward." She motioned towards him. "Would you like to live with us?" Her eyes looked hopeful.

My eyes bugged out of their sockets and my mouth opened and closed. I was sure that I looked like a fish.

"A-are you serious?"

"Yes. Why would we ask you if we weren't?" Stated Edward.

My eyes flickered over to his. He was being hostile, and it was making me angry.

"Well, if you're sure that I won't be a bother, then yes. I would love to live with you."

Alice squealed. "Of course you won't be a bother...um..."

"Jasper." I said, grinning.

"Jasper." She said.

"But, there's something about us that you have to know. We're not exactly what you'd call...normal." Edward said. His voice was like music.

They told me that they were vampires, but that they only fed on animals. They told me lots of other things too, but I was okay with it. I had a family now.

I smiled and shut off the water. I grabbed my towel and dried myself off, putting on some jeans and a white t-shirt with blue splotches on it. I grabbed a pair of blue converse and strapped them on.

"Jasper! Hurry up!" Alice shouted.

I picked up my bag and ran down the stairs, tripping on the rug in the process. I tried to regain balance but ended up falling on my side.

"Damn it." I groaned. I picked myself up off the floor and trudged towards Edward's Volvo. By the time I got there everyone had already taken a seat in the back, and I was forced to sit down in the front with Edward. My heartbeat accelerated. I still wasn't over him. If anything, I loved him more.

I pulled out my iPod and cranked the volume to its maximum. Linkin Park was coming through the headphones when Rosalie yanked them out of my ears.

"What?!" I asked Rosalie, exasperated.

"How do you not destroy your ears with these?" She asked, motioning towards the headphones in her hand, which were still blaring.

I shrugged. "Not all of us have super sensitive vampire hearing. Now can I please have them back? I promise I'll put down the volume."

She nodded and handed them back to me. I put the volume down by half, keeping my part of our little bargain.

In about three or four songs time, we arrived Forks high school. It wasn't very far away. It was also basically the bane of my existence. I was looked down upon, because the Cullen's were freaks, and I hung out with them. I didn't care, but the stares were really irritating.

"Can we hurry up? I wanna go to class and get this over with." Emmett mumbled.

"Why so grumpy?" Alice asked, but he had already stalked off. Rosalie shook her head and followed Emmett into the small building. They stationed themselves outside the office, while Edward got our schedules. Turns out that we all had pretty similar classes, apart for a few. All the Cullens huddled together to speak, but I ignored them and walked to English. Alice and Edward were in that class. They would tell me what the meeting was about there.

I walked into the room and got a seat in the back corner, next to the windows. The teachers barely noticed me. A couple minutes later, Alice and Edward walked in, looking very tense.

"What's wrong, Edward?" I asked. This wasn't normal behavior for him.

"There's another vampire here..."
