It was so fast that Bella had to blink a few times in order to understand what happen. She watched as Jasper pulled Johnny in the air with one hand and stared at him. Johnny was a very muscular guy when Jasper wasn't so how did he do that, she wondered. Unzipping her pants and getting off the couch she went to Jasper and touched his shoulder. His entire muscles were tensed. He looked at her his eyes were black and his lips pressed so hard against each other forming on tiny line on his face. It was not what she expected to see.

They keep staring at each other for what it seemed like forever. Jasper was confused about the different emotions he could sense coming from Bella though she didn't say a word. When he entered the only thing she felt was fear but now, looking at him, touching him, she felt unsure yes but also happiness, admiration and respect. Jasper let go of Johnny's body and stepped away from both of them. Bella eyes were focus on Jasper's as Johnny tried hard to get some air into his lungs.

"Are you ok?" Jasper finally asked though already knowing the answer.

"I am now"

"Who the hell are you?" said Johnny, trying to scream but failing miserable.

Jasper looked at the men on the floor, his wrists closed as if he was trying to contain his temper. "If you ever touch her again, at any place of her body, I'll make sure it will be the last thing you'll ever touch. Am I clear?"

"Look pal, I don't know you and you have no right to tell me what to do" Jasper turned his face to Bella mumbling an 'I'm sorry' before picking Johnny by the shirt and throwing at the other side of the room, like he was as light as a feather. A smile appeared at Bella's face surprising Jasper yet again

"Come on, let's get out of here" she whispered.

Bella held his hand as they walked out of the room.

"You don't fear me" he whispered. Bella stopped walking half socked half angry to look at him.

"No. I do not" she said.

"I don't understand. Everyone gets afraid when they see me like… that… when my true nature becomes known"

"What true nature, I mean I know there is something special about you somehow…"

"Special? Special Bella? I'm a fucking monster! I could have killed him and no one would ever find his body. I could hurt you anytime I want just because you are you, a human"

"But you won't hurt me" Her confidence throw him out balance.

"You don't know what you are saying Bella. I was born to kill. I should have known better then coming here" Jasper stepped back from her.

"So why did you?"

"I was bored and I wanted to be sure that I would not hurt another human being again. I signed the application to become a teacher and made sure I was the one who would teach. When I first walked toward this campus, surrounded by so many possible, sweetest meals, I had to try really hard to stop myself from jumping in their throat and suck their blood until…"

Bella gasped, even against her will "I'm sorry Bella. I'm so sorry".

"Wait, don't go" she said following him. "So you… you are a vampire… but you are still you" He stared at her trying to understand what she was feeling but right now he couldn't feel a thing, like she has build a shield around her mind and heart.

"How can you not feel anything?"

"What do you mean?" she blinked confused.

"You are not socked, surprised, fearful, or resentful for knowing me…"

"Well, I'm surprised yes but any person would be"

"No Bella, and that's the thing, you should feel an amount of things and not just be surprised. But I can't sense it and this never happen before"

"You can sense people's emotion?" He nodded "That's why you knew…"

Jasper smiled uncomfortable "I can feel when I'm close to them, yes"

"You were closer… to me" she said touching his cold face. "But why? I'm just a girl and you have met thousand of girls in here"

"Your blood smells better then anyone else's blood I ever smelt. But I feel no need of drinking him. Well, not enough to kill you, I mean"

"No?" her eyes looking at his. He shakes his head. Would I be crazy if I just kissed him? Because God, I so want to do that. But how can I feel like this by being closer to a vampire no less?"

"Your eyes, they are not black anymore" she whispered touching the side of them with her tiny finger.

"I'm not angry or thirsty anymore" Bella nodded. "I don't want anything bad happen to you Bella, and this is so confusing and exciting at the same time"

"Exciting?" her eyes glow as she repeat his words. She has been doing that a lot the last couple of minutes.

"You have no idea how much power you have over people Bella. Over me" he said touching her cheeks, the cold doing amazing things in to her hurt cheek.

Hearing his words and feeling his touch was enough to Bella make up her mind and act with her wishes, closing the gap between their lips. Jasper stayed still but instead of backing up Bella forced herself onto his body. Jasper opened his mouth and kissed her back.

"That feels good" his mind spoke.

His cold lips did nothing to cool down her desire for him; on the contrary it sent her entire body on fire. Jasper kiss got demanding in his own accord and soon he wasn't thinking or caring anymore. He wanted her. He wanted to kill her. Jasper backed off as soon as he thought about doing just that.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry" Bella said fearing she had ruined everything. As fast as he was away from her he was back closer.

"Silly Bella, I should be the one apologizing" he whispered touching her hair "I'm not used to kiss humans so I had to control myself before doing something I would regret immensely, killing you"

"You felt the need to…" Jasper nodded ashamed by his behavior. "But you were able to stop. That's a good thing right?"

"Bella, Bella, you are or the most amazing person in the world or the most stupid for being this closer to a vampire and actually enjoying it"

"Well, I never saw myself as an amazing person before but I guess I am one" Jasper chuckled and kissed her again, shortly this time.

"I have to ask you to never say a word about me or about what happen in that jerks bedroom"

"He is a jerk all right"

"I know he won't say anything because he doesn't want to lose his 'tough attitude' in front of his friends so I'm not worried about him"

"I wouldn't dream on betraying you Jasper. You can trust me, with everything"

"It would kill me to have to leave now that I found you" Bella hugged him resting her head on his chest and signed happy. She didn't want that either.

They held each other for what it seems like eternity "You better go and get some sleep darling. If I'm correct you have class around eight tomorrow"

"Yes but I don't want to sleep" she pouted making him laugh.

"I can sense that but you must. I don't want you sleeping in class or with dark bags under your eyes. You are too beautiful to be like that"

"Are you going to sleep?" the question made him laugh again.

"No, I don't sleep"

"Ever?"

"Never since the 1892"

"So you lied. You don't have twenty-six"

"Oh, I have twenty-six, but I have the same age for almost 216 years"

"I see. Will I see you tomorrow?"

"I'll be around, I promise" Bella nodded with a smile and said goodnight kissing him just above his scar. She didn't know why she did that but it felt good. She walked back to the building with a smile on the face.

The smile didn't last long though as she thought about what he said about his age. She would grow up and get old while he would continue be this beautiful, sexy, men of twenty-six.

"Please, don't be miserable. I can't stand it" he said beside her.

"How did you get here?" she asked in a startle. "Oh yes, you have high speed, amount other things normal people don't have"

"Bella, you can say something like that even if it's true. What if someone hears you?" he whispered at her ear. This time Bella felt a nice kind of shiver run through her spiny, nothing compared to the one in Johnny's room.

"It's just you and me here Jazz. Besides, they probable will think I'm crazy"

"What did you just call me?" he says going in front of her.

"Jasper"

"No, you didn't… um… I think I like Jazz better"

"Then I'll call you Jazz all the time now"

"I don't want you be miserable Bella, I'm serious, so try not to be ok?"

"I'll try but it's not easy because you'll always be this sexy young man when I am going to be…" she groaned looking away from him. She should not be thinking about that!

Jasper pulled her in to a hug trying to calm her down and it actually helped. "Can you play with people's emotion too or you just feel them?" she whispered without letting him go.

"Yes I can, but I didn't do it now. It is you that feels so great right now" he says raising her jaw. "You will always be beautiful Bella, not matter how old you are"

"No I won't be"

"In my eyes and my heart you will. Good night darling"

"oh how I love when he calls me 'darling'" As Bella thought that Jasper was gone. Bella felt a smile emerge in her lips.
