I do not own twilight or Not My Perfect day by the leader of lost destinies.
Chapter 8
Jess dragged me out side into the back garden. Which seemed a fair good size to me. It came across as the perfect size for a family of vampires. I waited for Jess to begin her story of how she became engaged.
"Well Ashley you remember when I was in America for a long time?" Jess asked. I nodded. Like duh like i would forget that easily. "Good. Well you see." She began. That was when i noticed something sparkling in amongst the grass.
"Jess." i interrupted
"Yes?" she asked slightly agitated that i wasn't paying attention after i had pestered for her to tell me everything.
"Why is the grass sparkling? Is it vampire grass?" i asked
"Don't be imprudent Ash." she replied
I looked at her confused. That is one big word. "Jess?"
"Yes?"
"What does imprudent mean?"
"That you were being stupid."
"I'm not stupid!" my eyes filled with tears.
"Do you want to hear the story or not?"
"Uh hum." by this time small tears started to run down my cheeks.
"Ash stop being so silly."
"Ok."
I wiped my tears into my arm like a small child would. Then tried to turn all my attention toward focusing on Jess's story.
"Jess!" A loud musical voice filled our ears.
"Yes?" she called back.
I turned around to find Alice standing in the doorway, and her skin sparkling in the sunlight. "Someone is coming to see you." Alice replied. I then noticed two things, one Jess's face lit up and then secondly I was soon left on my own in the back garden. An uncontrollable sigh left my lips. Just typical someone goes to tell me something interesting and then they leave just as it gets started. "Are you alright?" I heard a male voice asked. I turned my head slightly to see Henry standing in amongst some of the trees.
"Yes...why?" I questioned him
"Just curious." he replied
"Were you planning to listen to mine and Jessie's conversation?"
"That was the plan"
"Don't you know that it is rude to ears drop?"
"Is it?"
Stupid annoying vampire if only I could give him a piece of my mind. So I stormed off into the house to find Jess was gone but Alice was smirking.
"Alice?" I asked shyly
"Yes Ashley?" she questioned
"Who has come to see Jess may I ask?"
"Oh Jared has..."
"The person she is engaged to?"
"That's the one."
A devious smile appeared on my face. I'm guessing that he will be taller than Jess. For she wouldn't go with any one shorter than her self. Which means that the Jared dude will be a lot taller than my self.
"Alice?"
"Yes?"
"Do you have a step ladder by any chance?"
Jess walked into the living room. Her hand entwined with another hand. I looked at the person next to her to find that to look at his face I had to look very high up. Wow he is so tall. I grabbed the stepladder that Alice had fetched for me. I propped it up in front of him. Both he and Jess looked quite nervous. I got to the top step then looked down at Jared. With the most intimidating look as possible.
"Jared?" I asked
"Yeah?" he asked nervously
"If you hurt my friend..." I didn't get a chance to finish
"Ashley what are you doing?" Jess asked her voice seemed to be alarmed
"Well you know when you go on to your tipie toes to intimidate me?"
"Yes?"
"Well I thought that if I did the same I would be able to intimidate him."
"Ashley your on a step ladder?" jeez she didn't have to point out the facts
"Jess do you expect me to be able to grow taller than him in less than five minutes?"
Just then the patio doors closed. I looked over to see who had just entered to find Henry looking at me confused.
"Why are you on a step ladder?" he asked
"She is trying to intimidate him." Jess replied while pointing at Jared.
Henry burst into fits of laughter. I gave him evils that only made him raw with laughter even more. He then approached me with an evil look within his golden eyes. I gulped and became nervous. Which only lead to me shaking slightly which was enough to throw me off balance and off of the ladder. I closed my eyes and waited to feel the large painful bump as I land on the floor. But to my surprise I landed into a cold embrace. I opened my eyes to find that I was in Henry's arms. I cringed and my cheeks only proved to the others within the room how embarrassed I had just became.
"Pleas put me down?" I asked more like whispered
"No." he replied
"Put me down!" I demanded
His grip became tighter around me.
"Why won't you put me down?" I asked in a pout
"Just in case you banged your head?"
"Do I look like I have banged my head?"
He opened his mouth about to answer
"Actually don't answer that."
Later that day
We were all sat around the living room. Henry had left with Rosalie to go hunting. Well so Alice told me. Jess and Jared where sitting on the sofa with everyone else getting on with what ever took their interest. I sat there crossed leg in a bit of a pout the other side of the room. Mainly because it hadn't been long since Henry had let me free from his grasp. He basically made me sit in his lap and carry me everywhere until he was satisfied that I was capable of being on my own, but I bet really he just done it to annoy me. I'll have to get revenge. Hmm...Eureka I have the perfect plan. I rubbed my hands together diabolically, that was when I noticed that Jasper was doing the same also. Hmmm.
"Jess...Can you come with me for a moment I need your help?" Alice asked
"Sure." Jess replied
Jeez is it me or are there a lot of J's in this house today? As soon as Jess left the room my plan came into action. I'll just have to destroy some of Henry's stuff. I skipped out of the room and Jasper followed skipping at the same beat as me.
"You know we can destroy Henry's stuff by hitting Jared with it." Jasper said half evilly and the other half trying to restrain what he was saying.
"Jasper?"
"Yes?" he seemed quite nervous about what I was about to ask him
"Won't Jared feel the stuff hitting him?"
"Nope…"
"Why?"
"Because he is a werewolf …"
"What there are more creatures that are normally a figment of my imagination are actually real!!!!!!!!!"
"Well not everything."
It felt like he was just saying it to calm me. I took one quick glance around the room. Wondering what other creatures there are.
"Come on Ashley?" I heard Jasper speaking deviously
"I'm coming." I smirked evilly
Jasper and I waltzed out of Henry's bedroom with our arms completely full of his stuff. Both grinning like there was no tomorrow. We happily skipped into the living room to find that Jess still hasn't returned back with Alice. Perfect. We placed all of the objects as quietly as possible. We had a quick look to see if anyone had noticed us. Which Luckily no one had and also luckily Edward was not around. Which only seemed to make things all the better. Jasper then handed me the first object for disposal, Henry's wooden bat. One…Two…Three, I swung the bat and it made contact with Jared's head. Within contact it smashed into smithereens. Jasper must have picked up something before me because he tackled me to the ground. Jeez Louise he is very heavy for someone whose diet is only blood.
We continue this routine for a few hours. Jasper handed me the last thing that we had picked up. Henry's aluminum baseball bat. My devious smirk by this time was the main feature that could be pointed out. I took my stance ready. Three…two… I was just about to swing when a voice filled my ears. Uh oh busted. So as quick as possible I hid it behind my back.
"Ashley what on Earth are you and Jasper doing to Jared?" Jess asked
"Nothing." Both Jasper and me replied innocent like.
I then felt the cold baseball bat leave my grasp. Phew Jasper has taken it from me.
"Ashley why do you have my bat?" I heard a male voice
I turned around to face him. "What bat?" I asked
"This bat!" which he then put in front of my eyes.
"Oh that bat…Jasper gave it to me" I pointed at Jasper
"It was her diabolical thinking." Jasper whined and pointed at me
"Traitor." I said under my breath
"You did it first."
I gave him death glares and he did it back. Tension was defiantly became felt between us.
"Why are there more of my stuff in pieces?" Henry then asked
Both Jasper and I gulped. "RUN!" we shouted in unison
Jasper had vanished and I tried to run away but I knew that I would not be able to out run Henry. But it is worth the try.
"Ashley where are you?" Alice asked as I ran past her
"Can't talk got to run!" I called back
"ASHLEY!!" I heard Henry shout
I gulped he was defiantly closing in on me. Smack. I hit the floor. Just my luck that I would bump I into some one. I looked up nervously. Please don't be Henry please please don't I don't want to die now. I glanced up nervously to find that my little wishful thinking didn't seem to work.
"Hi." I smiled nervously
"Why did you even bother running if your 'innocent'?" he asked
I then heard Alice musical laugh as she approached us.
"Well you see..." I began
"Well what?" his patience with me was obviously running extremely thin by now
"Well…like I said it was Jasper's fault and I knew you won't believe me so I tried my chances." I explained
"How stupid can you get?"
"I'm not stupid"
"Well you act stupid, stupid"
"Well that was very original to come up with stupid."
"You complain of me not being original and your doing the exact same thing you hypocrite."
"I'm not a hypocrite."
"Do you even know what that means?"
"Yes actually."
How stupid does he think I am??
