LAST TIME:

"How do you know my name?" Jasper asked her as her mind stopped rambling what if's.

She just stared at him, unable to tear her eyes away. "I-

'What do I do?' I thought for a few seconds. I knew what I had to do. I turned around and ran as fast as I could. I'm glad vampires can't cry or else I would be a blubbering mess. I was always so darn emotional!

He didn't know who I was. Well, when you turn into a vampire, you do lose some of your human memory as time goes by. Maybe he forgot he had a sister. Yes, that's it. I shouldn't tell him then. I should just let him go. He doesn't need to get mixed up with me anyway. He's got a new family now. What if I brought him down with me? I'd never forgive myself for it. Besides, I'm probably the reason he left for the war. After that fight we had, I'd leave me too if I was him.

You forget most of your human memories over time but why couldn't I forget that stupid fight we had? Why of all things must that one memory stay in my mind?

"Amelia! Where are you?" I could hear Jasper calling me from my our bedroom but I ignored him. I was sitting on the roof of our small home crying. Crying because my big brother was being such a jerk!

"There you are." I heard him sigh a few minutes later. "Amelia, come down here please."

I whipped my face and sniffled. "No!"

He sighed once more. "Fine then I'm coming up there!"

"No!" I yelled as I made a move to get up. I was planning on running to the other side of the roof and jumping off once he was half way up here. Maybe that would give me a good head start. Jasper always caught me though. He was always faster and stronger than me and would trap me against his chest tighter than iron chains once he caught me. There was never any escaping his grasp.

When I went to turn around though, I slipped and fell off the roof. A scream escaped me and before I was met with the hard ground, I felt arms catch my falling body, cradling me to their chest.

I opened my eyes after a minute to see I was safely tucked in Jasper's arms. He was frowning down at me in a worried kind of way. I didn't even bother trying to move; I knew it'd be pointless.

"Are you going to tell me what's wrong now?" He asked me softly as he sat down on the ground, leaning against the house.

I closed my eyes stubbornly and shook my head. "No."

He sighed. "Times like these I wish I could know what you're feeling."

I still kept my eyes shut. I knew if I looked into his eyes, he'd be looking at me with such a sad look it would guilt me into telling him what was wrong.

"Amelia, I can't fix whatever it is if you don't tell me." He sighed again.

"You wouldn't fix it in the first place." I mumbled into his chest.

There was a moment of silence as his grip on me tightened, making me flinch. "Do you honestly think I wouldn't do anything that would make you happy? Darlin', what's botherin' you?"

I made the mistake of opening my eyes and looking straight into his. "My problem is that you run off every guy that gives me a second glance! I'm going to be single forever; the unwanted girl who can't ever get a date because of her brother!"

He chuckled lightly which only made me madder. "Honey, you'll find a suitable guy soon enough."

I glared at him. "How is that going to happen when you're always talking guys out of it?"

"Poppa will find you a suitable guy soon enough. Just enjoy being single for now Amelia." He told me in his understanding voice.

I wasn't going to end it there though. "You are always trying to control my life! You never let me do anything by myself!"

He frowned. "Surely you are mistakened."

"No I am not!" I yelled at him. "You're always controling, always trying to make me see things your ways, and sometimes I wonder if you are trying to ruin my life!"

He was so shocked at this he let me go and I gladly got out of his lap. Jasper and I hardly ever faught. We were always laughing and joking with one another and hardly ever raised our voices at each other. I couldn't tell who was shocked more at my reaction, me or him.

"What are you talking about Amelia?" He asked in such a hurt voice that I just wanted to run up and hug him. If only I would've listened to that side of me.

Instead I just started yelling at him again. "I really hate you sometimes Jazz!" I took off running after that, tears rolling down my face. I couldn't believe I said that to him. My big brother, my hero, my protector.

Jasper tried to get me to talk to him for hours but I locked our bedroom door and window so he couldn't get in. It was that night he left for the army. That night that my life that I loved so much ended. Not in a physical sence but mentally. I was dead long before Colby bit me.

I was knocked out of my flashback when someone tackled me to the ground. I hadn't heard anyone following me but that could be because I was so caught up in that horrible memory. I started panicking at the thought of it being Colby as who ever was on my back pinned my arms back. All of a sudden I started to relax which was really strange. Why the heck am I relaxing? What's wrong with me?

"I will let you go if you promise not to bolt again." A voice that didn't match anyone I knew said.

"Alright." I said in defeat. What else could I do?

I was pulled up but the person still kept a tight grip on my forearms. I looked up to see Jasper looking down at me curiously. I couldn't believe he came after me!

"Now are you going to tell me how you know me or am I going to have to chase you all over the country?" There was a playful smirk on his face as he told me this jokingly.

"You don't want to know who I am." I told him, keeping all emotion out of my voice. It was true. He'd be so discusted if he knew who I was.

"I'll be the judge of that." He told me with a glance. "Come on."

I started to feel...talkative. I didn't know how or why but I suddenly wanted to spill my guts to him. I bit my bottom lip to keep from revealing my identity, laughing coldly in my head. Well Jasper got his wish. He can control how I feel and tell what I feel all in one. What a cruel world this is.

I tried to pull out of his grasp but he just tightened his grip on me. I wasn't going to give up though. I tried twisting and kicking but he simply switched his hold on me. I was suddenly feeling calm but I started fighting that too. Heck no was he going to try this on me! I had to get away and fast!

Before I could make another move though, he lifted me up in his arms and cradled me to his marble chest. All of a sudden I couldn't fight off his calming waves any longer. I felt the ground move under me as I shut my eyes and knew he was taking me some where.

"Where are you taking me Jazz?" I asked, completely worn out. I needed to hunt really bad. My throat ached so bad and it was making me feel weak.

I heard him gasp as I smelt we were near his friends now. "What did you call me?"

Crap! "Huh?" Playing dumb was my only bet now.

"You called me Jazz." I could hear the shock in his tone and I opened my eyes to look at him.

"Are you sure?" I asked as I took the chance to get out of his grip. I leaped back so I was facing him and his family. Wow. It sounded so werid saying that these strangers were his family.

His eyes narrowed. "You know you did. Who are you? No one calls me that except for my family." He nodded to the vampires behind him.

"That's where you're wrong." I told him cooly.

"What do you mean." He asked confused and irritated.

"They're not your only family." I told him even though I knew I would regret it most likely.

I heard that girl from earlier, Alice, gasp as if she saw something. She was staring at me with wide eyes.

Jazz looked at me long and hard for a few minutes before saying, "I don't understand. Please, explain."

I sighed. "No can do. I've already said too much."

"You haven't said one thing that makes sence." Jasper argued looking irritated.

I smiled. "You said it yourself, I never have and I never will."

He looked at me for a minute before his eyes widened and he shook his head. I heard another gasp from a gorgeous looking man standing next to a curious brunet. Bella was her name I believe.

Before I could even think another thought, I was lifted off my feet and wrapped tightly in my brother's arms in a bone crushing hug. I would have hugged him back if my arms hadn't been trapped to my side.

"Amelia." He whispered as his grip tightened.

"I may not be able to be hurt very easily anymore, Jazz but it's still able to irritate me when you crush me like this!" I complained though I secretly wanted to stay in his arms forever.

He chuckled and looked at my face. "I can't believe it's really you! What happened? How? Gosh you look different."

He let me go so he could get a better look at me. The last time he had saw me I had shoulder length braided pigtails and a cotton dress that went to my ankle.

I looked towards the ground, not really liking all the attention I was getting from everyone. I was more of the shy type, I guess you could say. "Well I wasn't going to stay my ten year old self forever. Gosh, that would horrible!"

"How old were you when you got changed?" He asked me, still grinning like the goof he was.

I couldn't help but smile at his grin. Vampire or not, he still had the funniest smile. "I got changed on my sixteenth birthday."

He frowned at that but I hurried and distracted him before he could ask more about it. I'd save those questions for later. "What about you? Gee, you look like an old man!" I told him teasingly.

I heard a booming laugh and looked behind Jasper. There stood the hugest man I'd ever seen! He wasn't huge in a fat way but in muscle. I hurried and turned back to Jasper, a little afraid of the guy. Jasper must have felt my fear because all of a sudden I was calm again.

I gave him a glare but he only laughed. "I was twenty."

"Are you planning on explaining who she is Jasper?" The rude girl from earlier asked in her stuck up voice. She was really starting to tick me off and I could tell the guy next to Bella looked like he considered hitting her.

"This is Amelia, my sister." Jasper said as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders, turning to face them.

"Your sister?" The big guy asked confused. "How?"

"She's my bioligical sister from before I was a vampire." Jasper explained to his friends, who suddenly gasped.

"Hi." I said shyly giving a small smile to all of them. Vampire or not, I still was shy meeting a lot of new people at one time.

The girl from earlier, Alice, came up to me and hugged me tightly. "I knew there was something special about you when I saw you in my vision, I just couldn't place my finger on it."

"What do you mean?" I asked her but the smell of humans stopped me from finishing the rest of my question. I had almost forgotton of my thirst, believe that or not.

Alice looked up at Jasper in horror and told him something quietly but I was too focused on the smell of blood. I could hear the male's heart beat, feel the blood pump through his vains. Before I could think another thought though, Jasper had a deadly tight grip on me and was pulling me back.

"Let go!" I yelled as I began to let my instincts take over. Before I knew it, the big guy had me around the front as well and they were walking off with me towards the woods.

"Snap out of it Amelia! You can't hunt them." Jasper whispered in my ear as I started to come out of my hunting mode.

"Why not? I'm so thirsty!" I complained as I closed my eyes, feeling only but the burning ach that yearned for that human's blood.

"There are elk and I think a mountain lion around here to the left." The big guy said but it sounded like he was talking more to Jasper than myself.

"They don't taste as delicious as human blood though." I complained once more, giving in to their grips. There was no way I was going to get away from them so I might as well stop trying.

"No, Amelia! Drink them instead." Jasper said in such a demanding tone, it sent shivers down my spine.

"Alright." I finally gave in and once they were sure I wouldn't bolt to find the humans, they let me go. I let my instincts take over once more and followed the sounds of the wildlife's beating hearts. I jumped from tree to tree, turning myself invisible as I sprang for the mountain lion. I had never had one of these before but they smelt almost like a human. Hopefully, they would taste as good as one as well.

The lion didn't know what hit him. I jumped on his back and tackled him down, biting his neck with my sharp teeth. Goodness did he taste delicious. Almost as good as male humans! When I drank the elk, they wern't as good but they filled me up. I drank the last bit before turning visible again, giggling a little. That was actually pretty fun! All they had really were gators, deer, and maybe a bear or two back in the south. Though my favorite had been gator, I think the lion was better.

Jasper and Emmett were staring at me in shock. That only made me giggle harder. Men were so funny when they had that dumbfounded look on their silly faces.

"How did you do that?" Jasper was the first to recover.

"Don't y'all hunt at all too?" I asked confused. Every vampire hunts!

"That's not what I ment. How did you disappear?" Jasper still wore that dumbfounded look on his face. Man he really had grew up. His matching blond locks fell in his face and he had a bunch of scars on his face. I wonder how that happened?

I walked up to him and got a better look. Who did that to him?

"Amelia!" His questioning voice broke me out of my thoughts.

"Huh?" I asked confused, tilting me head a little to the side.

He gave me an irritated look, much like the ones he used to give me when I was a little girl. He always gave me that impatient look when I wasn't paying attention to whatever he had been talking about. I'm kinda surprised that I remember that.

"What was the question again?" I asked with an apologetic look while his friend laughed.

"How did you disappear?" He asked again.

"Oh, that's easy silly." I gave a short laugh as I jumped up in a near by tree.

"You mind explaining?" The big guy asked this time with a grin.

I sat down on the limb I landed on and leaned back against the trunk, letting one of my legs hang lazily off the branch. I smiled as the a cool breeze suddenly blew.

I looked up to see Jasper on the same branch, glaring at me. "Impatient much, big brother?"

"Amelia Marie." He was getting beyond annoyed now. It was actually quite comical. I wasn't the only one who thought so because his friend started to laugh with his booming voice.

I started to feel really talkative again and I rolled my eyes. "I guess you could say it's my gift. I can hide my scent and everything, which is quite helpful. Is that what you wanted to know Jazzy?"

An evil smirk came across his face. He had always hated when I called him Jazzy and I guess that didn't change. Before I could say another word, he lunged himself at me and I was soon on the forest floor with my hands trapped above my head.

"At least I don't have to be so gental with you anymore." The smirk was still on Jasper's face as he hovered inches over me.

I gave him an annoyed look as I tried to break free of his grasp. "Get off me ya fat cow!"

He simply chuckled but got up, pulling me up as well. "Let's go see the others. Charlie and Sue are miles away now."

"You know them?" I asked as we started running back.

Jasper looked back at me since he was ahead and said, "Bella was human when she first met us. Edward fell in love with her and they got married and had Renesemee in a two year period. Charlie is Bella's father."

I took that all in. Wow. This Edward guy must have had a great control over his instincts to be that close with Bella. I don't think I'd ever be able to do anything like that. "Wow."

"Do you think she'd be okay with Nessie?" The big guy asked Jasper as we slowed down, almost reaching our designated stop.

Jasper looked at me worriedly for a few minutes. "Who's Nessie?"

"She's Edward's and Bella's half human, half vampire daughter." Jasper answered. "Nessie is Renesemee's nickname.

"Oh." I thought out loud. "She shouldn't be a problem to my sences. One of my best friends is a half breed."

They looked shocked at this. "They're very rare to find." Jasper spoke.

I nodded. "I know this."

We reached this huge mansion and the boys came to a halt. I looked up at the three story house and then back at them. "This is where you live?" The place was huge!

Jasper smirked and wrapped an arm around my shoulders. "Yep, come on in."

AN: PLEASE REVIEW!
