Chapter Song: If I Had You(Adam Lambert)

Thanksgiving

Today is going to be a busy day. It's Thanksgiving and I have been up since five o'clock this morning. I had to clean and prep all the food. I also had to cook most of it. I tried getting Damon up to help me but that didn't work like it should have.

My phone starts playing my sisters ringtone. I smile before picking it up.

"Hey Bells." I answer.

"Hey Izzy. Happy Thanksgiving."

"Thanks Bells. You too. How are you?" I ask.

"I'm good. Did dad tell you about the guy I started dating?"

"No he didn't. Tell me sis," I say a little worried because she just got there a few days ago.

"Well his name is Edward Cullen and we go to school together." She starts before I cut her off.

"Does he have a brother named Jasper?" I ask.

"Yes. How did you know that?"

"I know Jasper. Except when I knew him he wasn't living with the Cullen's. Tell you what Bells, give Jasper my number. Write it down and write down a little note. Major call me sometime Isa," I tell her doing a little dance.

"Major?" She asks.

"It's a nickname. Just give that to him and I mean today. I've gotta go and finish cooking for our guests. I will talk to you later love ya." I hang up.

My phone rings two hours after I told Bella to give Jasper my number. I don't recognize the number so I'm hoping it was Jas.

"Hello?" I answer.

"Isa is this actually you?"

"Yes it is Major. I hear that you've met my little sister." I laugh.

"Bella is your sister?"

"Jasper what's my last name?" I ask.

"Salvatore."

"Before it was Salvatore." I laugh.

"Swa..oh."

"Are you doing anything today for Thanksgiving?" I ask.

"No, I'm not. I mean since it is today. Why?"

"Could you make it here before we have dinner? I'll call Charlotte and Peter and have a mini family reunion." I suggest.

"I'm leaving now then. See you guys soon."

I laugh after hanging up and dialed Peter's number hoping he would answer. I could always call Char but hell it'd be easier to get yoda here today.

"Well, if it isn't my little sug. What can I do for you my princess?" Peter asks answering his phone.

"Well, I would love if you and Char could make it to Mystic Falls. I'm having Thanksgiving dinner with my friends and husband. Oh I also invited our lovely friend Major to join us." I check the turkey waiting for his response.

"Well, we're kinda on our way there. My yoda was goin' off about the Major being away from his stupid wife. We'll be there soon sug. Can't wait to see ya," Peter says.

"Can't wait to see ya either cowboy," I tell him hanging up.

Four hours later

There's a knock on the door and I sigh. I so don't want to deal with people today. I open the door and I'm a little surprised to see Jasper, Peter, and Char standing on the other side.

"What? How?" I ask.

"Did you not want us here?" Peter laughs.

"Who's at the door babe?" Damon asks from behind me.

"Peter, Char, and Jas," I tell him.

"Whitlock?" He asks going into the living room.

"No it's Salvatore." Peter hollers.

"Come in guys. I wasn't expecting you so soon. You beat everyone else here." I open the door farther so they can come in.

"Well I wasn't in any mood to spend it with the Cullen's," Jas says smiling at me.

"We were already on our way here when you called," Char reminds me.

"Well I'm glad you're here. I've missed you. There was a reason I wanted to see you guys though." I confess.

I hug each of them because they were pretty much part of my family. My dad knows what we are and he doesn't have a problem with it. I'm keeping Bella in the dark until I know she can handle it.

We walk into the living room. I sit on Damon's lap while they sit on the couch across from us. Damon kisses my neck and I instantly calm down.

"What did you want to see us for?" Char asks, straight to the point.

"It's more of a question I want to ask the three of you," I say as a starter.

"Okay, well, we're all here so ask away," Peter tells me.

"Well, how would you feel about becoming the type of vampire I am?" I ask, watching their faces before starting again. "It would mean losing your powers, but you'd be able to deal with humans a lot easier. You'd be able to eat, be out in the sun without sparkling, you could drink human blood from blood bags if you don't want to drink from the source, you'd be able to sleep, and you have a heartbeat."

"Yes." Jasper answers, like he has already thought about it before now.

"Jasper I don't mean you need to answer right away," I tell him.

"No, I've thought about it for quite some time now. I was going to ask when I seen you next. You brought it up before I could."

"Well if he is then I'm in," Peter says looking at Jasper.

"I like the idea of being stronger than pixie bitch." Char smiles.

"Pixie bitch?" I ask, looking at her confused.

"Alice Cullen," Jasper says.

"Ah Bella's friend." I nod.

I have heard a little bit about her from Bella. It seems like she uses my sister for a Barbie doll. Bella hates shopping unless it's for food and she is being taken shopping more than once.

"Yeah.." Jasper trails off.

"Well, I'll go gather the stuff I need and do the spell. Do you guys have rings, bracelets, or necklaces?" I ask.

"What for?" Peter asks curious.

"Well, I'll need a ring, bracelet, or necklace to spell to keep you from burning in the sun." I laugh.

Char and Jasper pull off their rings and hand them to me. While Peter takes his off and throws it. I catch it before it can hit me in the face. I see Damon get up and head down to the basement.

Getting blood for when they do the transformation? I ask sending Damon my thoughts.

Of course. I'm also getting you a couple bags. You may be drained after doing the spell. Damon responds back.

"Okay I'll be back down in a minute," I say, heading up the stairs.

Once the spell is done they test it out by standing in the sun. Damon hands each of them two bags and looks at me. He hands me a bag and I shake my head. I wasn't feeling drained. I pull Jasper to the side and ask how it feels not being able to feel everyone's emotions. He looks so relieved that he doesn't have that power anymore.

I ask him what he's going to do when he goes back to Forks. He asks if I can put a spell on him that will make him seem like he was still a cold one. I say sure, then ask what Peter and Char are going to do when they see the Cullen's.

"The Cullen's, well mostly Alice, doesn't like them. Never have. This is actually the first time I've seen them in a while," he tells me looking at them.

"Wow. How can they not like them?" I shake my head.

"Yeah, that's what I thought. I wish I could spend Christmas with them but I can't get away for two holidays." He frowns.

"Damon and I are coming up for Christmas with my dad and family. I'll keep them here with me and we'll bring the up for Christmas. You'll see us then. We can all hang out."

"If you do that I will love you forever Isa." He smiles hugging me to him.

"Then you've got yourself a deal Major." I hug him back.

Everyone arrives on time for dinner. Right before I sit down at the table my cell phone starts ringing.

"Hello?" I answer with a groan.

"Is this Isa Salvatore?"

"Yes this is. May I ask who is asking," I say a little irritated.

"This is Alice Cullen. Is my husband there?"

"Yo, Jas some chick named Alice is on the phone." I toss my phone to him.

He gets up and leaves the room. Peter and Char look pissed that she would call. Everyone now knows the history between the four of them. Jas, Pete, and Char gets along with Stefan, Lexi, Jeremy, Anna, Alaric, and Meredith for which I'm grateful.

Twenty minutes later Jas returns my phone to me and sits back down at the table. Pete goes to get up and head towards Jasper but I shake my head. Everyone goes back to normal and we all eat.

Ric, Jer, Anna, and Meredith leave early because they had promised Elena they would eat dessert with her since John couldn't stay after dinner. Lexi and Stefan decide they would show Peter and Char around town. That leaves Damon, Jasper, and I alone. Damon goes to get more blood bags from our freezer.

"Jas?" I ask, from my chair.

"Yeah Isa." He looks up at me.

"What was the phone call about? You've seemed a little off. I may not be able to read your emotions, but I know you well enough to know something isn't right," I say standing up.

"Alice wanting to know why she wasn't invited to come with me. I told her that Peter and Charlotte were with me. She got pissed that I would rather spend time with them here than with her there." He sighs.

I pull out my phone and call the number back. It goes to voicemail so I hang up. I call three more times before she finally answers.

"Hello?"

"Hi Alice my name is Isabelle Salvatore. I invited Jasper, Peter, and Charlotte to my house for Thanksgiving. If you have a problem with Jas being here then you need to speak to me not him," I say.

"Well you see I think it was rude of you not to invite me as well."

"Well, you know I don't care that you think I'm rude. For one, I didn't know that Jasper was with anyone until I talked to Peter. Last I had seen him he was with Peter and Charlotte. For two, I don't know you so I wouldn't invite you to a family gathering. For three, you don't like Peter nor Char, although I don't understand that, so again I didn't invite you." I roll my eyes.

"They are no good for my Jasper! They call themselves his family but where were they when he didn't want to kill humans anymore?!"

I hang up the phone and look at Jasper.

"I'm sorry to say this but if I ever see her I may end up hurting her," I say gritting my teeth.

"I completely understand. She shouldn't have acted like that towards you."

Damon comes into the room with some blood bags and a tray of food. He loved snacking while I worked. I was an author and loved my job. I could turn my life into fiction worlds for people to read about. No one knew that I'm a vampire but I was a hell of a story teller. He senses that I'm upset because he puts the tray down and comes to stand in front of me.

"Hey, you gotta relax. Things will be fine kitten. I've got your back through thick and thin." He pulls me to his chest.

I nod not able to speak, afraid my emotions will get the best of me. Damon rubs smoothing circles on my back which calms me down instantly. I pull away and look at Jasper.

"So, what can you tell me about Edward and my sister?" I ask.
