"Char….she will be fine…come on let's get on the road….its time for the Major to meet his mate"

Bella POV

Oh…my…GOSH! Waking up I realized today is the day. D-day. The countdown is done. It's finally here. I'm beyond nervous. Now I am feeling sick to my stomach. Oh no.

Okay calm down. Radio! Need music. Then I can dance around and get all my nervous energy out. Yes….yes that sounds good.

Wait….where is my music….oh no I forgot we moved…now I have to unpack before anything gets done. Yuck.

"Bella…..come on….shower…I have clothes for you…and then you are going to school….we'll see how it goes before we unpack okay?" Mom said even she sounded nervous…..can vampires be nervous?

"Thanks Mama…" I whispered back knowing she could here me.

So I followed my morning routine and headed down the stairs to say goodbye and head off to school… my heart was in my stomach and I was borderline hysterical. I wonder how the Major is doing this morning.

Jasper POV

The night went by with me in my study ready old war books, some were my own others were people I use to know. I often wondered if anyone else read these for run. Alice never came back last night….it seems like she is avoiding me. I am curious as to this brunette Peter spoke of. I wonder if she is a vampire…well she has to be right? I mean why would Peter know a human.

Finally I decided I wasn't waiting for Alice, she could ride with Edward, they had been weird lately, private silent conversations and strange emotional climates were following them every where. I got to my bike, reved it up and headed out towards the school…..ready for another day in the life of a vampire who is known as the "Major" or "the god of war" yet here I am posing as a high school student….again. God life sucks, well in my case….after life sucks.

I was waiting in the parking lot for the first bell to ring when my nose caught a whiff of a scent I knew very well…a combination of Peter and Charlotte but where could it be coming from. So then I started to turn tactical….and began to analyze every person in the lot until I saw her. There she was, tiny little thing…about five foot tall, long brown hair….wow….those eyes….I'm locked I can't look away….this must be the girl…..I take a step toward her. She's looking at me at the same time…her emotions are filled with recognition, adoration, lust, but mostly she is nervous. I stop myself mid step I can't go over there. She is human, I'd most likely drain her. Sigh.

I see her facial expressions change. I didn't have to be an empath to read the rejection she thought I was giving her. Who was this girl and why did she know me. I needed to speak with her. I needed to speak with Peter. I needed to avoid Alice and Edward, but most of all I needed to breathe…well not necessarily, but I couldn't calm down….seriously could there be a nervous vampire? Suddenly I felt Alice wrap her arms around me and the girl….her heartbreak was shown across her face. Great just great…this is not how I wanted to start out my day.

Char POV

I couldn't help but be nervous. I mean really could there be a nervous vampire? Bella had gone to school. I'm sure she had met him by now…or at least seen him. Oh gosh I hope she is okay.

Peter is worse than I am….he may try to be all tough soldier but Bella is his baby girl and she is not to be hurt in anyway. Oh Jasper please don't hurt my baby….she has already been hurt too many times.

Peter POV:

Oh God….Char is nervous…..Bella looked like she wanted to throw up when she left. I can feel it…this is not going to be good.

Suddenly I scream out, "That Pixie Bitch!"

Char is just staring at me, "What's wrong sugar? Is Bella okay?"

"No she's not…she thinks he's rejecting her….and he probably will and its all her pixiness's fault."

I couldn't think, so I set out for the school…stood in the forest and waited. I listened to see if Jasper and Bella spoke….but they didn't. It was finally lunch and I thought maybe they could talk then. Bella sat outside at a picnic table alone so he would approach her but I saw the pixie bitch grab his arm and shake her head no. Bella seemed to be getting angry…I could see it on her face, so I bet Jasper could feel it. Finally I decided to call him.

"Peter"

"Major"

"What can I do for you?"

"You could get your head out of your ass for starters"

"Who is she Peter?"

"Doesn't matter…just come out to the forest I'm here, I wanna talk…now."

"Fine…but I want answers too."

So I waited and out he finally came. It was time the Major met someone more badass…..a teenage girls daddy….

Bella POV

I drove to the school, got out of my car and then I saw him…..standing there next to his bike…wow…swoon. Oh could he be more perfect…okay get it together Bella…he feels what you are feeling.

Finally he looked up at me those messy blonde curls falling in front of his eyes….I wanted to brush it away with my hand….but sigh…I couldn't. He started to take a step toward me then stopped. I could feel it then,,,,he didn't want me, of course he wouldn't. He's perfect and a vampire and I'm just a stupid human. I started to walk away, giving him one last look before I saw his wife come up and hug him from behind…he looked uncomfortable.

I went on with my day, and finally it was lunch time. I avoided the few people who tried to talk to me throughout classes, I was only focused on one person but it seemed that person was avoiding me like the plague. I walked outside to one of the picnic tables so that maybe he would come over and talk seeing as I was alone. He looked back at me…smiled….swoon….and then she shook her head no and he sat back down like a good little puppet he was. Oh I was so mad, and I let him feel it. He flinched before answering his phone. Suddenly I realized that mine was ringing too.

"Mom" I answered

"Bells….oh god Bells, it's bad isn't it? Your dad left I think he's there talking to Jasper….oh god did you even get to talk to him? Come on girl give your mama something"

I laughed at her and responded "Mama I'm fine…I don't know what to do…I try not to be obvious….but I think the pixie and the mind reader know and are trying to stop him every chance he gets. He saw me….looked at me….he's smiled…I think he might feel something…that's good right? All hope isn't lost?"

"Oh baby…I wish it were that easy….with the Dynamic Duo you two are gonna have your work cut out for you. I hope you guys get to talk. I bet your dad will invite him over and explain the whole thing….let's just wait it out okay?"

"Yeah Mama…okay I'm gonna head to my next class I'll see you when I get home. And I'm not gonna get my hopes up. I have been preparing for this day for years I'm not gonna mess it up now. I just hate that it seems like this is out of my hands…"

"What's out of your hands" I heard a voice say from behind me….oh no…its….it could be….could it? I tried to think of a way to answer and I heard Mom yelling my name in the phone but I just couldn't think I couldn't speak…..I felt so stupid….oh no….

Jasper POV

"Peter! What is going on?" I yelled at him

"Major we can't do this here and you know it."

"Why not Peter…what is going on"

"Listen Jazz…seriously…if I tell you….you will lose it in front of all these people….and that wont be good…just know that…Bella…that is her name by the way…is really important to you…..but she is especially important to Char and to me. So don't screw this up"

And with that he walked away. I sat there for a few and thought about what he just said….Bella….I could say her name for hours….it suited her. I wondered who she was…what she liked…how she knew Peter and Char…surely they weren't keeping a pet…but they eat humans….one couldn't live with them. Oh this is so confusing. So I started back to the school and I could hear her…Bella….on the phone with Char…

"Yeah Mama…okay I'm gonna head to my next class I'll see you when I get home. And I'm not gonna get my hopes up. I have been preparing for this day for years I'm not gonna mess it up now. I just hate that it seems like this is out of my hands…"

"What's out of your hands" I said from behind her and then she freaked. She wasn't responding I could hear Char yelling for her in the phone so I took it from her. I let Bella regain her composure….while I handled Char..

"Charlotte?"

"Jazz?"

"Yeah Char why is this girl calling you Mama?"

"Oh shit Peter didn't tell you? Oh god. Are you takling to Bella? Is she okay? You didn't eat her did you?" by the end she was giggling…strange woman that one is….

"Char She is fine….she looks shocked…I cant feel anything from her right now….I just don't understand…wait looks like she's coming around I'll see you later…okay?" and with that I hung up and looked at Bella…wow she's even prettier up close.

"Bella? Are you okay?"

"Major…I mean Jasper…I mean sir…oh god I can't do this I have to go." and she ran away…what is going on? Why did she call me Major? And then sir…and why wouldn't she call me by my name….how does she….this is so confusing. I was determined to figure it all out when I went to Peter and Char's this afternoon.

I went to History and noticed that Bella was in that class too. It was our last class of the day, so maybe I could talk to her…there is an empty seat by me. Yes! Score…maybe I can talk to her.

"Miss Whitlock…you can sit by Mr. Hale….he is the only open seat." the teacher told her and I about screamed out WHAT instead I covered it with a cough.

Bella sat next to me and whispered so only I could hear…"I thought you were a Whitlock? What is this Hale business? I don't understand? Oh god I shouldn't be questioning you…I'm sorry sir….please forgive me?" she was hysterical and if I didn't calm her down she was going to lose it. I could already smell the tears forming.

"Well I may originally be a Whitlock, miss but I play a part…the part of Rosalie Hale's twin brother hense the last name change….now would you be willing to tell me why you are using my surname?"

She avoided the question until the end of class….then as she gathered her books up into her bag and turned to walk away she said, "That Major Whitlock is because your brother Peter is my father and Charlotte is my mother and you…sir are my mate….I'll see you later you are coming right?"

I was baffled…did she just say she was my mate? What is going on? Wait did she say mother and father? I really need to get the bottom of this. What am I going to do? I had too many questions and not enough answers.

Alice POV

That stupid stupid little human, thinks she can come in and steal my Jasper. He's the perfect pet really….he obeys….he lets me dress him….and makes me feel better about myself. What could be better….oh I know….the sexing I will be doing with Edward later. Stupid Jasper….says he's a strong empath and yet he can't figure this out. Maybe the human will do some good and she will get him away from us…he never belonged. I wish Peter and Charlotte had eaten her when they killed her druggie parents. Oh if Jasper finds out that I know all about Miss Isabella Whitlock….ugh that name….when we married I enver got to use it why does she….stupid human….still it will be hell to pay. Especially if something happens to her…I guess I will have to be on the lookout.

"She told Jasper she was his mate" I told Edward.

"Really how did he take it?"

"He stood there and didn't understand. God is he stupid"

"It's okay love….they will be together soon….or both will go away and they will be miserable apart and then we can be happy together"

Stupid Edward thinks things are perfect….when it all reality I am using him too…stupid vampire…..some mind reader he is…I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens….too many decisions to be made.

A/N okay so Alice may seem like the bad guy….but really….it's complicated…..just some things aren't always what they seem…..remember that for the future he he sounds like a vision right? Anyways next up will be the TALK.
