SM OWNS TWILIGHT
Chapter Seven.
"Get the fuck out Jasper Whitlock." I growled.
My heart shattered the second his name escaped my lips. His blue eyes were filled with sadness and longing. It made me sick. Jasper leaned casually against the edge of counter. His scent invaded my senses it made me gag. He was wearing a white and black plaid button down shirt. The sleeves were rolled up to his elbows exposing his gorgeous, tan forearms. His hair was a blonde disheveled mess; I wanted to run my fingers through it.
"Bella, how many times do I have to say 'I'm sorry'?" Jasper asked. I bit my lip at the sound of his voice. It was deep, husky, and had a slight twang of a southern accent. It made my insides melt.
"I dunno, Jasper how many times?" I spat. He opened his mouth to speak, but I wasn't finished. "You cheated on me my best friend and you're seriously expecting me to forgive the both of you like it never happened?" I almost shouted. "Are you really that dense?" I griped the edge of the counter so tightly that my knuckles were white.
"I'm never going to forgive either of you." I could feel the tears building up, and I did my best to stop them from falling.
Before he could respond, I jumped down off the stool, stormed my way into Emmett's office. I shut the door with more force than necessary, and locked it. My breaths were coming in shallow, and heavy. I leaned back against the door, and slowly slid down to the floor. I hugged my knees to my chest as sobs racked through me. I didn't care enough to stop them.
I missed both of them. I missed all the late nights, the sleepovers, and the shopping trips. I missed his hugs, I craved his kisses, and I needed his love.
I heard someone knocking on the door, but I ignored them.
"I'm going to get this door open one way or another." Renesmee called from the hallway. "Emmett gave me his key; I'm only knocking to be nice." She continued. I reached up and un-locked the door. Pushing my self off the door, I slid over to the wall, and resumed my position. I closed my eyes, leaning my forehead against my knees.
I heard Renesmee open the door and then it before taking a seat next to me on the floor. "I want to ask if you're okay, but I feel like that'd be a stupid question."
"Yeah, it would be." I replied.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" Renesmee asked.
"There's not much to talk about, Ness."
She scoffed. "Of course there is."
"He cheated on me Ness. He cheated on me with my best friend. What is there to talk about?"
"I'm sorry." Renesmee cooed, and placed her hand on my shoulder.
"Don't be." I sighed, wiping away my tears.
"How are you feeling?" She asked. I shrugged my shoulders. "Fine, I guess. I don't think I can go back out there." I admitted. She nodded in agreement, and pulled me into her arms. I rested my head on her shoulder. "It'll be okay. You'll see." She tired to condole me. I shook my head. "I seriously doubt it."
"You'll find someone new." She grinned. I chuckled darkly. "Yeah, right."
"Oh, believe me. You will."
"Don't sound so sure.'You never forget your first love'." I quoted. Renesmee laughed. "Oh god, Bella. Shut up."
"You mean to tell me that you'd go out and find someone new if Jacob cheated on you?" I retorted. After a few moments she replied, "I'd move on eventually, but that's not my point."
"What is you're point then?"
"You're only eighteen! You have a full life ahead of you to meet other people. That guy isn't the most important thing out there. Even if it feels like it at this moment."
"When did you become all knowing and wise?"
"I've always been!" she defended herself.
"Right," I laughed.
The rest of the day went by without any more confrontations. Emmett and Embry have been up my ass asking about what was going on. They gossip like old women, it's ridiculous. After my shift, Renesmee drove me to the hospital to see Rose. We walked hand in hand up to my sister's room. I poked my head inside her door, and knocked.
"Rosalie?" I called. She beamed up at me. "Bella!" I laughed at her excitement.
"You brought Nessie too! That's so great!" She exclaimed, as we made our way over to the end of her bed. Renesmee and I took a seat across from each other at the end of the bed.
"You have no idea how great it is to see people. It's driving me crazy being stuck in this bed all day." she sighed.
"Emmett told you he's not coming tonight, right?" I wondered. She nodded. "Yeah, something about his cousin..."
"Do you know who he is?" Renesmee asked, turning towards Rosalie and I.
I shook my head "no, Emmett's never talked about him before."
"I wonder if this mystery cousin of his is as attractive as he is..." she mused out loud. Rosalie scoffed "don't you have that mutt to worry about?"
"Jacob is great, mind you." Renesmee shot back, defending her boyfriend.
"Anyone related to the Cullens is bound to look like a God," I said bluntly. Renesmee and Rosalie stared at me for a few moments before erupting into a fit of uncontrollable giggles. "You're right," they said in unison. When they finally managed to calm themselves down, I sighed deeply and turned to Rose.
"You'll never guess who came into the shop today." I said, and she hummed in response. "Jasper," I sneered his name as if it were a disease.
"No!" she gasped, dropping her jaw in shock. "Was he getting a tattoo?"
I shrugged my shoulders "I have no idea, I didn't stick around long enough to find out."
"Did he say anything to you?" she pressed.
"Just his usual "I'm sorry" routine," I mumbled.
"Honestly Bella, he's a complete ass wipe," Rose told me "I don't know what you see in him."
"You need to move on, it's been over a year." Renesmee commented. I rolled my eyes, and crossed my arms over my chest. I knew that Jasper was a complete ass wipe, I was very well aware of that fact. I didn't know what I saw in him either, frankly. Renesmee was right, I was very well aware of that fact as well, however it wasn't that easy; at least not for me anyway. It's been over a year, a normal person would have moved on by now, however much to my dismay, I am not normal, and I'm still hung up on Jasper. I doubted that I'd ever be able to move on.
