Author's Note: SORRY FOR THE DELAY! My Documents lost some of my files and I had to try and track this chapter down
Disclaimer: Look, who doesn't want to own some of this characters seriously? But sadly, I don't! They all belong to the Oh-holy-Stephanie! She's so great! Twilight is not mine!
Jasper's POV
There was a long awkward silence. Both sides of the line stared at us with a disturbed expression.
"God Jazz, no wonder you reek." Jacob said while covering his nose.
"And you smell like roses Jake." I teased.
"Oh ho! Nice one." He grinned at me. I forgot how much I missed him; it's been long since the last time we met. It seemed like we forgot about the audience watching us, it wasn't until Sam rudely interrupted.
"You two know each other?" Sam asked apparently disgusted by the vampire and werewolf relationship.
"Of course I know him! If it wasn't for Jasper I probably still am living with the animals or something. He rescued me from getting lost while hiking with my cousins at Deadwood." He said simply.
"Oh, the hike you go with your relatives every year?" Embry asked.
"Yup, I wandered off alone and I got myself lost and nearly killed myself while falling down the hill, man that was painful, had blood everywhere. This was about five years ago. He found me two hours later and brought me back to my family. I've been seeing him every since, well, every time I go back to South Dakota of course." He smiled.
I grinned at the memory and ran my hands through my hair. Jacob spoke up "So that's why you never age!"
"Wait and you didn't kill him?" Sam asked accusingly.
I glared at him fiercely. "I'm a vegetarian, we never drink human blood."
"But even when he fell and had blood all over him, you weren't tempted?" Sam asked once more.
"Jasper would never hurt me!" Jacob defended me.
"So that's where you went every fall! You were wondering off in the woods with that dog!" Rosalie pointed out.
"Rosalie!" Esme said her angrily. "Don't you ever use that sort of word!"
I groaned loudly at the flaming emotions around me, the pain was unbearable. I immediately calmed everyone down and all the anger vanished.
"Look, Jake's my friend and I would never hurt him. I had to admit that I was tempted by his blood but he was only a little boy, he was only ten years when I found him. I wouldn't take his life away." I said to the pack.
"And yet, the two of you never realised that in a few years time you will be enemies." Rosalie spoke up.
There was a long silence and the pack shifted uncomfortably. Edward tensed beside me and I wondered what he was listening in the pack's mind.
"Jacob you are not allowed to see that blood- I mean, the vampires again." Sam stated.
Jacob and I froze on the spot and I could feel the eyes all staring at us.
"WHAT? WHY?" Jacob shouted angrily.
"That's an order Jacob Black." Sam said fiercely.
"But he never hurt me! And we all know he's a vegetarian, why is this so hard?" Jacob asked frustrated. He was in so much anger that I was afraid that he will explode back to his wolf form.
"You didn't even know he was a vampire." Embry said.
"He's not supposed to tell! Ok do you all want me to shout out to everyone in the reservation that I'm a werewolf? Huh Embry? He has his secrets and we have ours." Jacob retort back.
"How come you never knew that he was one of them?" Rosalie asked harshly.
"Rose, he was only a boy!" I said heatedly and I turned to him. "When did you turn Jake?"
"I started phasing earlier this year." He explained back to me.
"See!" I said grumpily, man I sound like a kid.
"A treaty is a treaty, you stay away from our land and we'll stay away from yours. Unless you give us permission or for very appropriate reasons." Sam glared at Jacob.
Jacob looked at me sadly. It was the face that I found him when he was crying in the woods. My closest human friend I have ever had, and now he's taken away from me.
"Can I at least give something that belongs to Jasper? He left it with me last year accidently." Jacob said to the pack.
"Go ahead, and hurry back." Sam sighed deeply. Jacob took off into the bushes and phased quickly as he ran.
All of us stood in an uncomfortable silence; I looked down at the ground and watched the grass that rustled around my shoes. A gust of wind passed and a large dog came into the clearing carrying a small box with his teeth.
He trotted towards me slowly before stopping at the line; I came up to him and reached for the box. I opened it slowly and inside was my old Silver Figaro bracelet. The chains were polished and cleaned making as if it was brand new. The bracelet had a smooth clearing that was attached the chains which had my name engraved on it.
My eyes widened at the bracelet and noticed a small carved werewolf that was dangling from one of the chains. I smiled brightly and touched it. It was all made out of some sort of stone, my guess it was opal, how did he afford this? The features and carvings were beautiful and so précised.
"Wow…thanks Jake. I thought I lost it." I smiled at him.
"He found it just before he left to for the airport when he was going for a quick stroll in the forest." Edward translated for me. I looked at him and nodded a thanks, I noticed his eyes seemed angry, and if it weren't for the sudden change of expression I would have noticed a hint of jealously in them.
Jacob whimpered sadly and nestled his nose to my forehead before his huge tongue came out and licked my face.
"Eeww! Gross Jake!" I stumbled back laughing. He howled happily and gave me a goofy dog smile before returning to the pack.
"Well, I guess this is it. If you need anything all you have to do is come to border and we'll detect your scents. And if you found out anything about the murders in Seattle please contact us as soon as possible." Sam said calmer now.
All of us nodded in understanding and watched as the human figures phased back to their wolf forms before running into the forest. Jacob was the last one to run and he looked back at me with those innocent dog eyes. I smiled at him and waved. He looked up into the sky and howled loudly before running after his pack.
"Well that was interesting." Emmett said.
"I'm going out to Port Angeles. Anyone want to come?" Alice asked happily.
"I'll go with you Alice. I want to buy a new wardrobe for the winter." Rosalie said, her eyes gleaming.
"I'll go too, and no I won't tag along with you chicks to shop, I need to go the video game store to get new wrestling games." Emmett said.
"Jasper? Edward? Will you be alright if we leave you alone for the night? Carlisle is giving me a tour around the forest for some hunting areas." Esme smiled.
"No I'll be fine, I'll look after Jasper Esme." Edward said and stood closer to me.
"Great, well then we'll see you all later. Be careful all of you." Carlisle warned.
Everyone disappeared and only Edward and I were the only one left in the clearing.
"So what do you want to do Edward?" I smiled at him. It made me happy that I was alone with him again, he's the only one here who can help me smile besides Jacob of course. The name Jacob sunk in to my brain and the sad feeling came creeping back.
"You and Jacob are close I assume?" He asked curiously. I looked up at him and gave him a small smile.
"Well he was actually my first human friend that was so close to me. It's sad that he's all gone now." I said. I put the small box that Jacob gave me into my jean pocket. "But I'm alright; let's get this gloomy feeling over with shall we?"
He gave me the crooked smile that I love and looked straight ahead. "I don't have anything in mind. What about you?"
"Can I see your house?!" I asked eagerly and nearly slapped myself at the stupidity I just caused in front of him.
He chuckled softly and took my hand. "Alright then, if you that is the only thing that keeps you from holding up that smile, then it would be my pleasure."
I grinned at him happily and we walked side by side. I tripped over a dead branch and he held me in place before I face planted myself on the ground.
"You know what maybe we should run." I said to him annoyed at how clumsy I am. I need to get this stumbling and tripping thing over with and the faster we run, the less humiliation I would face.
"With that balance I don't think you should." He laughed. In a split second he had me in his back.
"Whoa, what are you doing?" I asked him shocked.
"Hold on tight, I want to keep you safe, not have you falling every five seconds." He said in an amused tone. I groaned at him and tightened my arms around his neck.
Suddenly we were gliding though the forest. It felt different to when you are actually running fast by yourself, but when you are in Edward's back it feels like heaven. I smiled and I put my head on his shoulders.
His head turned to me slightly and he tightened the hold of my legs. He leaned in to me and whispered "Before we go to my house, I want to show you something. Besides, we have all the time in the world."
Edward's POV
He looked at me and I grinned. I halted to a stop and looked at the clearing around me before springing myself towards a large tree. I climbed up, jumping from tree to tree gracefully with Jasper clinging tightly around my neck. I could feel his cool breathing against my neck.
"Do you always do this Edward?" he asked in his young voice. I love the way he says my name.
"Hmm, if I have nothing to do then I usually come up here." I said back to him.
"Oh…" he said nodding his head.
"Ready?" I said settling him down on his feet. We were on highest branch on one of the tallest tree in the forest. He looked at me confused and I turned him around.
He gave a small gasp before exclaiming "It's beautiful!"
"Yes, you are." I murmured under my breath. He turned his head towards me before giving me a warm smile.
The scenery was one of the things I like about Forks. The sky was now dark with only the light from the moon and stars to brighten the forest around us. The trees and hills looked amazing under the light.
"Welcome to Forks Jasper." I said to him. We are now sitting on the branch with him sitting by my side.
"Hmm….thank you for showing me your Forks Edward, it's gorgeous." He said and once again leaned his head on my shoulders. I automatically put my arms around him.
I turned to him and look at his clear blue eyes as he looked out to the scenery. He is beautiful and so human.
"Edward?" he asked slowly.
"Hmm?" I asked putting my full attention on him.
"What do you miss the most about being human?" he asked hesitated. The question startled me.
"Interesting, I never thought much about that." I finally said. "Probably the ability to eat and cry. What about you?"
"Sleep…I miss the ability to dream." He said as he snuggled closer to me. I smiled into his hair.
"Oh? You like to dream?" I asked suddenly interested.
"Yes, it feels nice to get out and step into another place, another world. No dreaming means that you stay in reality forever." He said. His eyes looked hurt and lost. He almost looks like a small child who lost his mother.
I didn't know what to say. He looked so sad and fragile; I thought he was going to cry. I tightened my hold around him and he sighed into my chest.
We sat there for hours but we didn't care. It was comfortable having Jasper near me.
"Edward, it's nearly dawn and I still haven't seen your house." He chuckled.
"That's true, let's get going then." I smirked at him. He smiled at me before free falling himself towards the ground. I gasped when I saw him do this and he yelled out "You're not the only one who have good reflexes Edward!"
I copied what he did and the trees around me blurred. I could hear his laughter echoing throughout the forest. I laughed in return and saw him running fast towards my house. I sprinted after him and he turned his head around to stick his tongue at me.
"Oh you little devil…" I smirked playfully before bursting into a faster speed. I managed to catch up with him but he dodged me when I tried to grab his arm. He leaped over the bushes and boulders still laughing.
My house came into view and he slowed down, I took this chance to tackle him onto the ground and we skidded on the garden sending flowers and bits of dirt flying in different directions. We both collapsed on the ground laughing and he stood up while brushing off the mud on his jeans. He smiled down at me and took out his hand for help. I gladly took it and also stood up.
"Wow, it's huge!" he said as he stared at the house. "It's really nice!"
He stared at it in awe and I gave an amused smile. "Carlisle designed it, it's beautiful isn't it?"
"I love the how it has the woodsy-cottage look. Let's go inside!" he said and dragged me into the house.
My house was a wooden mansion. The floors and walls were made out of wood mostly rich mahogany. It has many windows to show the clear view of Forks, and a massive garden which consists of thousands of flowers and plants from all over the world. Carlisle thought it would be good for the souls but I always frown at the thought, we have no souls.
We both entered the lounge room.
"Edward whoa! It's so spectacular!" Jasper said and immediately let go of my hand to jump on the white leather couch, not to mention stumbling over the table in the process.
Emmett came in and laughed loudly when he saw Jasper tripping while making his way to the couch. "Oh there you are bro! I've been here for ages! I got the game in five minutes, can't be bothered to take the Jeep….oh! Hey Jazz! I'm Emmett, I don't think we've talked before?"
Jasper grinned and knocked his knuckles with Emmett, making a loud crack sound which to human would be something like a car crash. "Hey Emmett, what's that you got there?"
"Oh this? It's the new Wrestling Doom 2000!" he said enthusiastically and Jasper's eyes widened. "Wanna play?"
"Hell yeah!" Jasper said excitedly.
"Let's go then!" Emmett exclaimed just as excited as he was. It only took two seconds for him to get the game set up and the next thing you know, they were both sitting beside each other holding a game control while having their eyes glued to the screen.
I chuckled at the sight and observed the match on the plasma. They were both making comments and playful insults, obviously trying to distract each other. Their hands moved rapidly over the controls, so fast that if they are going faster than they are now, it could crash the whole system.
Carlisle and Esme walked in smiling when they saw us. "Hey boys, had fun?"
"Hmm….uhhh….yeah…" Emmett and Jasper said not taking their eyes off the screen. I rolled my eyes and made my way towards Esme.
"Hello, my name is Edward Cullen." I said politely extending my hand. She smiled warmly at me and shook it.
"Esme Hale dear, oh my, you are gorgeous! Our little Jasper is right…" She said in an amused tone. I liked her immediately; her motherly presence was something you can't get away with. It feels great to have someone like her around, she was soft, gentle and caring, everything how a mother should be. Oh how I missed that feeling…
"MOM! Oh god!" Jasper shouted when he heard his name. He made eye contact with me and looked down in embarrassment. I grinned at his actions and Emmett laughed out loud while rolling around on the floor.
Trying to look normal again, which he failed poorly, he made his way to Carlisle and stood beside me.
"Hi Dr Cullen! It's nice to meet you!" He said brightly and shook his hands.
"Please call me Carlisle Jasper, and same to you to." Carlisle smiled and looked at me.
So this Jasper is yours yes?
I growled at him and he gave me a cheeky grin. You have to admit, he has beautiful eyes, and such a friendly presence.
"So Jasper, you manipulate emotions I heard?" He asked interested.
"Yes I do something that I got when I was turned. And you're also a doctor! You need to teach me a few pointers, how can you hold your breath for so long?" Jasper asked curiously at him.
The whole room laughed in amusement.
"I don't hold my breath anymore son, I got used to the smell and now it doesn't bother me at all." Carlisle replied.
"Not at all?" He asked in amazement. "Sweet!"
The conversation lasted for a few more hours and Carlisle absolutely loves having Jasper around. He loved his enthusiasts when it comes to him asking about saving people's lives and the hospital.
"My, it's nearly time for school boys. Where are the girls?" Esme asked.
"Right here!" Two girls appeared in the doorways carrying huge colourful bags in their tiny arms.
"Jasper! I got you clothes, with the help of Rosalie of course…good thing most of my favourite stores were still open...I know right! STILL OPEN! But I couldn't find a good costume place in Port Angeles…maybe we could go to Seattle! Here look at these clothes we bought you….let's try them on…so you can wear them for school…" Alice trailed off and looked up at Jasper with an evil grin.
Jasper backed away instantly and said "Oh no you don't…"
"Hell yeah we will!" Rosalie jumped behind Alice.
"I'm going! See at school Edward and Emmett! Nice meeting you Carlisle!" He said quickly and giving us a small grin. He ran passed us to the open door and the girls cussed.
"Darn it...Alice give me the bags! Oh baby brother…you are so gonna get it! COME BACK HERE JASPER!" Rosalie yelled and immediately took off after him.
"Oh dear, I can imagine my vases breaking right now…" Esme shuddered and smiled towards us. "Oh it's been a pleasure meeting all of you. We hope to see you soon, come by our house any time."
She gave us all a hug and a peck on Carlisle's cheek. She gave a wave and disappeared through the wooden door.
Emmett slung his right arm over Carlisle's shoulder and smirked. "My old man still got it!"
Carlisle chuckled. "Don't be silly."
"Tsk…boys…" Alice muttered annoyed and ran upstairs.
Jasper's POV
I got home as fast as I can. I could smell Rosalie's scent in the distance and shuddered. I quickly got up to my room and slammed the door. A few seconds later Rosalie was pounding on my door, I don't even know why she even tried, just let her push it and then hinges of the door can fall off.
"JASPER!" she yelled. I winced in pain by her screeching scream and her angry emotions. "I really want you to dress nice please! Even Edward and Emmett don't mind if Alice dresses them!"
"I don't think they have a choice…." I muttered slowly.
"I heard that! I swear if you don't come out I'll break the door down!" she replied.
"Oh no you won't! I will not allow it!" Esme shouted from downstairs.
I sighed loudly and walked to the door. I opened it and there it was, the scariest thing that ever walked the earth, angry Rosalie. Before I could say anything she thrusts bags into my face and growled.
"You better wear it!" she hissed at me and walked away.
I slammed the door with my feet and threw the packages at the couch. I glanced at the clock and noticed that we had just a little over an hour until school starts. I shrugged and opened my laptop to check my emails. I haven't checked it weeks and I was glad that I opened it. Inside were continuous messages from Jacob and I couldn't help but smile at the title of the emails.
Jacob: Jazz I missed you
Jacob: You're moving yeah? Tell me where!
Jacob: Where are you Jazz?
Jacob: Blondie, you better answer my emails!
My eyes gleamed at the inbox and I clicked on the newest message. Jacob: Stuff the treaty!
Jazz, I can't believe they did this to us. Why can't they see our friendship? It's not fair! I love having you as a friend, and now that I know you're a vampire boy did it answer most of my questions! I always wondered how you could be so strong and cold. But maybe that's why I like you so much, you're so different.
We'll still be friends right? Come on Jazz, you're my only blonde friend! LOL! But I swear that blonde chick next to you was a bitch, no offense?
Technically, Sam ordered me not to "see" you anymore, but we still can contact each other right? Please reply soon!
I smiled at the laptop screen and started typing.
Of course we will Jake, as corny as this sound but we'll be friends forever! Thank god I don't have to say this to you face to face. Actually that blonde chink is my sister, surprising eh?
I love the werewolf charm you gave to me Jake, it was amazing! Did you do it all by yourself? Oh you talented pup.
I got to get to school; we'll keep contact as much as possible. I'll talk to you later.
"Jasper get off the damn laptop and dress already! Edward is here to pick you up!" Rosalie shouted.
My head snapped up and froze. What the hell Edward?! How come I didn't hear him coming?
"Hello there." A velvety voice said behind me. A smirking Edward was sitting on my window with one of his feet dangling outside. I gasped loudly and crashed towards the floor dragging my chair with me.
Instantly he was over me with concerned eyes. "Are you alright?"
I tried to hide my embarrassment and stood up with Edward's aid. "Hey Edward, holy don't you ever do that again!"
"My apologies, I should have asked for permission." He said still worried.
"No it's alright, my senses isn't picking up anything at the moment, so I'm more clumsy than usual." I said getting up with Edward holding me.
"Would you mind if I ride you to school?" He asked.
"Sure! Thanks a lot!" I said and smiled up at him. Shit he's tall.
"That's good, Rose is taking the Jeep with Emmett and Alice took her own car to school." He explained while leading me towards my bathroom. "I hope you wear some of the clothes the girls bought you today, because I could hear Alice planning up her own methods to destroy you in hear mind."
"Oh? That's comforting." I said and grabbed one of the bags from my couch. I walked into the bathroom and closed the door with Edward leaning against one of the frames. "So what's her car?"
"A Porsche Carrera GT." He said outside my room. I chuckled slightly and imagined the little pixie girl riding one of the fastest car in the state. "Color?"
"Midnight blue." He replied. I opened the door and stepped outside. His eyes widened at my clothes.
"Do I look that bad?" I asked annoyed. I wore a simple button up white collared shirt with sky blue stripes, and a skinny fitted black pants. Along with that is a grey silky half vest that ranged from my shoulders to slightly above the waist.
Crap I look like Rosalie, no wonder he's gaping at me.
"No you look stunning actually." He said sincerely. I walked to the mirror in a vampire speed and groaned.
"I look like a sailor." I admitted after looking at my reflection.
"Don't say that, it's beautiful." He said and walked around me. Oh how can you stand with a sexy man staring at you up and down like this? It's a crime I tell you!
"It needs some of Jasper's touch." I grinned and ran to my closet. He looked at me confused and I came out holding chains suspenders.
"Chains?" He laughed and folds his arms.
"Of course! It'll make it look more me." I replied and hooked the suspenders on the side of my pants. Instead of wearing them, I let the chains dangle on the side. "Retro don't you think?"
"Perfect." He breathed.
He grabbed my hands and we both leaped out of the window. Emmett and Rosalie already left and there was only Edward's Volvo parked on the driveway. He held out the door for me and I stepped inside the car. Instantly, he was beside me putting his keys into the engine.
"So is this going to be regular?" I asked trying not to sound too hopeful.
"If I could have your permission to come and pick you up every morning then I think it will." He smirked at me.
"Coolies!" I said brightly. I jumped in my seat slightly and he chuckled before speeding off into the road. GAH! STOP ACTING LIKE A GIRL!
Thank you gods for not letting him hear my mind!
I am mega sorry again for the delay but DAMN this is a long chapter. I seriously couldn't stop writing. Merry Christmas everyone~! I'll try to get the next chapter sooner because my parents got me a laptop for Christmas which means there is no sharing with annoying sisters, also means that I can write more! HAHA man I'm cruel! But I hope you enjoy this chapter, there will be more excitement in the next chapter I can assure you, this one was kind of dull because I'm saving all the good ones later in the story. Thank you for the awesome reviews! HAPPY CHRISTMAS!
