All Characters belong to Stephanie Meyer. I am just using her genius to tell a story. All names, persons alive or deceased, and events are fictional. If they have a resemblance to anyone, you're thinking too hard about it. It is a coincidence, promise.

Chapter Three:

Lunch was going by too quickly, for the first time in a while, I was actually enjoying myself. Usually I sat alone in the corner of the cafeteria reading or doodling in the pages of my notebooks. Sometimes, I even do that nights' homework. My life is very eventful, huh? Every once in a while I am graced by the presence of my twin.

The small girl had a different lunch period but occasionally she left class to hang out with people in the lunch room. Alice was a crowd pleaser, or that is what she calls herself, but it seems true enough. She happily jumps from clique to clique, ranging from the popular crowd of jocks and cheerleaders to the always studious nerds. She is never bothered when talking to the PDA couples that line the halls between periods or sitting with the Emos dressed in all black. She seemed to be able to weave her way into everyone's heart; so far nobody was immune to the tiny hyper ball that she is.

That was until today. Alice came into the lunch room and threw herself down in the seat across from. She didn't seem to notice Rosalie as she rambled about how the guy of her dreams is not paying any attention to her.

"He is perfect! He has honey light curls that almost fall into his deep brown eyes. And he seems to have somewhat fashion taste, we were meant to be. He just doesn't seem to think so." Her hand reached out to swipe the apple on my try, too quick for me to smack it away. After taking a bite she noticed Rosalie, how she missed her is beyond me.

"Oh! Hi, my name is Alice. I'm Bella's sister." After greetings being exchanged I jokingly asked if she even knew his name; at this her blue eyes grew wide as she stuttered out 'no' saying she doesn't think she has seen him before.

"Jasper Whitlock." Rosalie said nonchalantly before finishing off her slice of pizza. We both looked at her expectantly. "He is my step-brother. He will graduate a year before us." She shrugged as if this piece of information was nothing. Alice began buttering Rosalie up for information on her brother in exchange for a shopping trip. I shook my head violently no at my new friend but she agreed regardless, I silently wished her luck.

Lunch continued like this, Alice planning her and Jasper's wedding while Rosalie and I teased her and gave her a hard time about her crush. Soon the bell rang dismissing fourth period to fifth. I said my goodbyes as Alice practically shoved Rosalie out of the lunchroom to the class they both shared next.

I walked into biology to find a dark shade of blonde occupying the seat next to mine. It was the only available seat left in the class, so I figured based on the description and the probability that only so many new people could start school today, that this was Jasper. Sitting down quickly I barely had time to say a hello to my new partner as the teacher started to explain today's lesson.

By the end of class I was slightly frustrated with Jasper. Everything he did seemed so…calm? Even when I spilt the hot water from our lab all over his lab book, he barely flinched from the water that touched his hand. He barely spoke at all; even I tried starting a conversation. He was quiet, annoying and calm. I hope Alice snags him; maybe he will wear off on her chatter box self.

Before I walked away from the class I gave Jasper one last glance and become curious as to why he had white scars on every bit of skin shown, even a thin white line across his temple to his hair line. I put this information away to ask Rosalie about later.

The rest of the day went by uneventfully until the last period. Gym. If the class was not mandatory you can bet that I would not purposefully risk harm to myself and the poor people who are placed around me. This week was volleyball and I was not looking forward to tripping and getting stuck in the net again. Soon I can go home where I will lovingly get groceries, cook dinner, clean and make sure Charlie is comfortable or else all he will do is yell all night. Soon something has to change, right?

The rest of the week flew by and before we knew it, Friday was upon us. On the way to lunch Rosalie and I discussed plans tomorrow for a girl's day. Rosalie got along great with me and Alice and even came over twice for study sessions and dinner, and to Alice's disappointment, Jasper did not stop by. Where Rosalie fit in, Jasper stuck out. He avoided everyone, only talking to his step-sister when others were not around. The small female population finally got the hint that he was not interested in anyone or thing, even Alice, although sticking to her guns about their future marriage, stopped seeking him out as often.

Rosalie walked to our table in the corner of the cafeteria while I entered the baked potato line. After adding all the necessities for a good potato, I paid and gave a small thanks to the lady serving me before heading back to Rosalie. As I neared our spot I saw that we had company, Alice was exaggerating something while her hands flew in every direction as she explained something to Rosalie. But what really caught my eye was the honey blonde boy next to Alice. Where Alice's presence was a regular occurrence, Jasper chose to always sit alone.

"Hey Alice, Jasper." I greeted before taking my spot next to the gorgeous blonde girl. Alice paused her plot to drag me and Rosalie up to Port Angeles for a shopping spree to give me an enthusiastic hello. Jasper ignored my presence as usual, he only acknowledges me in Biology during our labs.

"Oh! I forgot about you too, Jasper! I noticed that you don't really talk to anyone here, maybe you're just shy? So you can join us tomorrow too if you'd like?" Alice asked shyly looking at him from the corner of her eyes. Her small hands folded themselves together tightly as Jasper quickly turned around, fully facing her.

His eyes glared openly, lip lifted into a snarl. "It is infuriating how small your brain seems to be. Do you not realize that I want nothing to do with you, your sister or anyone else at that matter?" he hissed. I looked at him in shock, how dare he talk to her like that! She was just being friendly! I opened my mouth to tell him where he can shove his terrible attitude when he continued. "Do yourself a favor and just stay the hell away from me." His words were harsh, and I can tell that Alice was very affected by them, but he sounded hurt before he walked out of the cafeteria, not once looking back.

Alice took off the opposite direction and through the second pair of double doors of the large room. She could barely contain the tears that threatened to spill over. Turning to Rosalie, I'm glad to see that she was furious with her step-brothers behavior towards Alice. Before she can apologize the lunch bell sounds releasing us to the next period. Great. I will have to face Jasper. Rosalie gave me a small apologetic smile and said she would calm Alice down next period. I nodded and went off to Biology.

Afraid that I would receive a detention, or worse, the principal contacting Charlie, I decided to ignore Jasper. However that seemed to be the wrong answer when he turned facing me as soon as I sat down.

"Is she okay?" He asked, the sincere concern in his voice pushed me over the edge. He was the one that snapped at her and now he feels sorry? He better feel sorry!

"You are a completely full of yourself! You really hurt her feelings and although you don't care about her, she likes you. Hell if I know why, but she does. She felt bad that you were always alone." My voice rose louder as I went on, everyone in the room was staring at the scene I was causing, even the teacher. "You push everyone away, always fighting something huh? Is that how you got all those scars? Fighting people that have it out for you? Even your own sister couldn't stand what you did, if you don't have her who you have? Nobody."

By this time I knew I was just being ridiculous, but I took everything I have been feeling out on him, and part of what I said seemed to hit home when he flinched from my words, Mr. Banner was walking towards me with a pink detention slip. Reaching for my book bag after the slip was placed in front of me I looked Jasper over once more before sighing. "Nobody will care what happens if you continue down this path. You'll be all alone." And with that I walked myself down to the principal's office.

Charlie came to pick me up from the school's premises for the rest of the day. After being lectured that I was a waste of youth and my mother would be so upset to see how I turned out, I retired to my room for the night.

I woke up to a knocking sound coming from downstairs. Pulling my phone from under the pillow I read the text from Alice saying she was out with Rosalie and to not bother cooking for her. The knocking continued, groaning I walked down the stairs. Yup, Charlie was passed out drunk; too drunk to notice the knocking coming from the front door.

I swung the door open releasing a surprised gasp as I came face to face with Jasper Whitlock. A panic expression masked over him as he realized I was about to slam the door closed on him. "I killed one of the most important people to me."
