Disclaimer: I don't own the Twilight series (Stephenie Meyer) nor 50 Ways to Prank Carlisle Cullen (Lennon Drop). Duh.
Jasper's POV
I could feel Edward's pain from across the house. I hope Bella comes back soon. Edward can't take much more of this. Heck, I can't take much more of this, I thought. I walked to Alice's room to cheer myself up. I opened the door, walked through it, closed the door, and sat on the bed facing Alice. (AN: look, I know they don't sleep, but I love my bed, just to relax in, and it fits the story, ok?) She looked up at me, smiling slightly, but I could tell her mind was elsewhere. Suddenly she smiled broader.
"You don't have to do that, you know," I heard Edward say from across the house. His mood had lifted, I could tell.
"I know," she replied with a smile. All three of us benefited greatly, and the most wonderful thing was, I didn't have to do anything! I chuckled, and Alice's gaze fell on me.
I stared into her gorgeous topaz eyes. If I still had a beating heart, it would be racing.
I smiled, and she returned it with an adoring look that said 'kiss me you fool'. So, I prepared to oblige.
I leaned in to plant a kiss upon my love's lips when she drew back, a bewildered look upon her face.
"What is it?" I asked anxiously. Had she seen something? I had been too absorbed in her to hear anything.
"Nothing," she murmured. I was instantly reassured. "Edward's going out. Now where were we?" she continued, resuming her loving gaze. I grinned, then leaned in to finish what I started.
Our lips touched. Even though we're both cold as granite, I swear her kisses warm me. I closed my eyes, just getting into the kiss when…my phone buzzed. I reluctantly pulled away from Alice.
Under other circumstances I might have laughed at her expression. It was one of a small child who has just gotten her candy taken away.
I suppressed my amusement and drew my phone out of my pocket. It was a text from Ed. 'Meet me in the meadow, my meadow, ASAP.' I gave a confused look. I looked up at Alice, whose face was flooded with perplexion. I shrugged, gave her a quick peck goodbye, and ran out of the house. I met Ed in the meadow in a manner of seconds.
"Took you long enough," Edward said jokingly. He was leaned up against the trunk of a tree as if he'd been waiting for awhile. He walked forward.
As I spoke, he stopped moving, "All right, Edward, enough of the games. What'd you bring me here for?" I said. I'm missing kissing Alice for this, I finished silently. He chuckled, shook his head, and then a pained look clouded his expression as he remembered his love was temporarily out of reach.
I sent a wave of calm and reassurance towards him. It'll be alright, I thought.
He nodded. "I know," he said, a little of the anguish erased from his face, "I'm going to get her in a few minutes."
"So, anyway, why am I here?" I asked suspiciously.
"Well, it has to do with Alice," he began, then, as he read both my mind and my expression, quickly added, "Don't worry. It's a good thing. Trust me." He smirked. "It'll be fun."
Well, in that case, I thought. "Okay, let's hear it," I said.
"All right," he began, and filled me in. He took a piece of paper out of his pocket while he spoke. It was the list. I smiled appreciatively at the list as I scanned the first few items.
"Bella came up with this all on her own?" I asked. Edward simply nodded. I whistled admiringly. I frowned slightly when I came to number fifteen.
Edward caught my mental drift and said, "Yeah, Bella was a bit hesitant on that one, too. I think Alice will forgive us…" he broke off as I glared at him. "eventually." he amended quickly.
I nodded. "She will," I said, "maybe in a century or two." Edward raised one eyebrow to see if I was joking (he normally doesn't 'listen' unless he has to) and joined in my laughter a few chortles later. I glanced at my watch. "Well, I should probably head back before Alice gets curious and 'looks' for me."
"Yeah," Ed agreed, although I swear I heard him say 'or maybe he just wants to kiss her' under his breath. I pretended I didn't hear. At my lack of verbal and mental response, he, too, glanced to see what time it was. "I should probably go pick up Bella."
"Are you going to run?" I asked.
"No, I promised Bella I'd take the car."
"Ah." I said, then grinned, "Still afraid of running?"
"I'm afraid she is, yes," Edward replied, faking sadness at the situation. My grin widened, and I saw the corner of his mouth go up. He knew my intentions.
"Wanna race?" I asked.
"Duh!" he replied.
"Now no cheating!" I cried quickly.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." He said.
"Okay," I said. We both got into starting positions. "3……2……1….GO!"
And we were off.
