Chapter Eight
Jasper's POV
_____________________________________________________________________________________
I entered my Chemistry class with a smile that could rival the sun. I can't believe I just did that! I was usually never that…in-tune with anyone. Not even Alice. Oh, Alice. She is a saint. She's already lookin forward to having Dawn around. Everyone is really. That's good.
I sat at my table, staring off at nothing really. I tried my hardest to ignore Emmett clearing his throat loudly. He was trying to get my attention. He didn't get far though. Mr. Harper had started his lecture.
"Jazz?" I didn't look at my brother. He can be so childish at times, its no wonder Rose gets so stressed with him. He continued to nudge me and fidget in his seat, drawing unneeded attention from the rest of the class.
"Mr. Cullen, is there a problem?" Mr. Harper asked, I could feel his annoyance. I only smirked. If Em got in trouble again, he would get suspended. Esme would rip his head off no doubt.
"Uh, No sir." Emmett gave the teacher a re-assuring smile and shut his mouth.
"Good. Now, Stop interrupting my lesson." Mr. Harper gave him a warning glare and continued to lecture. I had studied all this a million times. I had no need to listen. Neither did Em to my dismay.
He slid a piece of paper to me. It had his messy scribble on it. I huffed lightly and read it.
So how did it go with the hottie? Emmett wrote. I suppressed a growl. I know I shouldn't be defensive but I cant help it. I told you, I have this weird connection with that girl.
It went well. She's sitting with us at lunch today, so don't act like an ass. I added this simply because that's usually what Emmett did on a daily basis.
I won't man! I don't want you to miss out on her. She's a keeper. Even Rosalie kind of likes her. Kinda… Ah, Rosalie. The Queen of bitchiness. I wasn't worried though. Dawn seemed like she could handle Rose's shit any day.
Hey, if Rose likes her then she must be perfect. (Note the Sarcasm) I just hope she likes me. I wrote. I'm usually more confident with women, but this one was different. She had an aura about her that made me uneasy. Not a bad aura, just…intimidating. I know! I am a pussy!
Don't worry, she will. Emmett and I continued passing notes for the remainder of the period. It was almost time for lunch. I could feel the butterflies…no, bats, in my stomach. I really hope to the lord Jesus Christ that she likes me.
The bell rang and I was first out. Time to face my impending doom.

Dawn's POV
_____________________________________________________________________________________
I couldn't sit still the entire class. I had trigonometry. It was hell. I mean, I know my shit, but still, how can I focus with him on my mind.
I had to introduce my self to the class. My teacher, Ms. Murray was nice, but I could feel jealousy leaking out of her by the bucket full.
I don't understand why she would be jealous. She's young and pretty. She looks like she's maybe…23? She has no reason to envy me.
I met a girl, Julie Hanes. She was pretty nice. She had blonde hair and adorable blue eyes. We hit it off easily. She invited me to sit with her at lunch but I had to take rain check.
When I told her I would be sitting with Jasper Hale, she looked completely taken aback. Like she was shocked. I was going to ask what was so bad about it but she change her mood quickly.
She made me promise to tell her everything that happens. I told her yes just so she'd shut the hell up. She's a sweetie but she talks too much.
By the time Trig was over I was shaking so much I had to hold onto the wall for stability. I had a zillion questions in my head. What if doesn't like me? What if he thinks I'm ugly? What if he thinks I'm weird because I'm half human? Dammit!
I entered the cafeteria and went straight to the lunch line. I could use some caffeine. I could hear people gasping in the line, staring at me like I was some type of celebrity. I like attention and all, but this is down right ridiculous!
"I agree." I turned so fast the napkins on the tables moved a little. Standing beside me was the most hottest guy on the planet, well aside from Jasper of course. He had tousled bronze hair golden eyes and an adorable crooked smile. He's a vampire too. Damn.
"You agree with what?" I finally got my question out. I had turned away from him now. He was cute but I aint about to ogle the guy.
He chuckled. "I agree when you say the attention is ridiculous. It is, but it passes." He was behind me, grabbing a tray and filling it with many different foods. It smelled repulsive.
"If I remember correctly, and I'm sure I do. I never said anything to you." I had a venomous twinge in my soprano voice. I didn't mean to be rude but, that's just me.
"Indeed you didn't. But I read minds, so there was no need." He gave me a small smile and walked away. I didn't move. I couldn't. I could see who was sitting at the table with him. They were all so amazingly beautiful. They made me look like horse shit. They were all so perfect. But the most perfect of all was Jasper. He was by far the most beautiful of them all.
He noticed me watching and gave me a wink, then motioned for me to join him. I couldn't breathe. God he is so fucking sexy. I want him! He is mine!
I could see the bronze haired boy smirk. He had heard my thoughts. He nodded and like the soar loser I was, I stuck my little tongue out like a five year old. He returned it.
I walked over to the table and sat next between Jasper and a guy with nice brown hair. Jasper smiled.
"Hey there, glad you could join us." He nudged me playfully. I blushed. Stupid human half!
"I wouldn't miss it for all the blood in the world…okay maybe that's a lie." I gave him a smile and everyone laughed. Jasper gave me a pseudo-pained expression.
"Wow, that's a low blow. You'd ditch me for a meal?" He gave me the most adorable puppy dog eyes but I didn't cave. I can be just as persuasive. I turned away from him.
"Hey, a girls gotta eat." I shrugged my shoulders nonchalantly. He laughed. He is so damn cute. It's like a puppy that you can't eat. The bronze headed boy made a funny noise like he had choked on milk. I looked up and he was giving me a look of disbelief. What?
"The dog comment." He was shaking his head like he was trying to rid him self of any images.
"Survivor instincts." I said simply. He just nodded. Everyone was looking at us funny. He and I just burst out laughing.
"May I ask what's so funny?" Jasper looked curiously at me. I just shook my head, and tried to control my giggle fit.
"God…damned…empathy…won't…work!" I said between giggles. The entire table was silent.
"Wait, you're an empath." Said a tiny pixie like girl with spiky hair.
"Yah, and telekinetic. Why?" I asked. She said it like it was a problem.
"It's just that I'm an empath too." jasper answered instead. I was taken aback. He's an empath. Wow, and I thought I was unique. And I bet there's another half breed out there as well.
"Actually there is. My daughter is half human." Edward said answering my thoughts. I looked at him and complete disbelief. Holy son of a bitch!
"R-Really?"
"Yep, I am just like you!" I turned to see a face that can only be described as angelic. She had pretty bronzed hair that fell into the same tight ringlets as my own. Her skin was pale whit with hints of pink in the cheeks. She had full red lips just as I did. And she had deep chocolate brown eyes with twinges of gold in them. My eyes were the same only, mine were hazel and gold. We could pass for sisters if not twins.
"W-Wow." I stuttered. I cant believe I thought that they would consider me an outcast! One of them is a hybrid too. I could feel myself begin to relax more. This is good. This is fantastic!
"Indeed it is." The bronze headed boy said. I shot him a dirty look.
"Quit reading my thoughts, kid!" I yelled at him, just low enough so the humans didn't catch it.
"How about, Hell no. And my name is Edward, not kid. And I am about 120 years older than you, mademoiselle." He gave me a playful smile. He was so nice, almost like the brother I never had.
He gave me another smile and I turned to Jasper.
"The bells gonna ring…" He cut me off.
"Hey, do you have plans tonight?" He had a hopeful gleam in he pretty golden eyes that made me smile.
"Nope, why?"
"Well, I was wondering if you wanted to come over to meat my family more…formally. I mean, you barely caught their names…" He trailed off. I could feel his nerves.
"Don't be nervous, Jasper. Of course, I'd love to come over. What time?" The bell rang and I headed for the door.
"You can follow me after school in your car!" He yelled as I exited the cafeteria. I smiled to myself. He likes me!
"Sure thing! Later Jazz!" I ran off to class with a huge smile on my face.
