He looked me in the eye as he took a breath through his nose. The closes his eyes and took another breath, he pushed me away with shaky hands.
"Bella I can't so this." He said removing his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose.
"I'm sorry Jasper. You don't have to if you don't want to."I said with a depressing note.
"Bella I want to, it's just that I can't trust myself. You smell delectable, I don't know if I would be able to resist." He said as his long, lean fingers intertwined with mine.
"It's ok Jasper." I said looking down at our hands. I started playing with his fingers in mine.
"Awe, Bells I want you to know if I couldn't hurt you I would kiss you, right now."
"Really Jasper?" I said looking up with a smile on my face. He leaned in and kissed my cheek.
"Really." He said as he pulled away. Where he kissed now had a tingling sensation. His lips felt warm and soft, although they were cold and hard. We sat in silence, just looking into each other's eyes. No one moved until he ran his finger along the crease between my eyebrows. Which I didn't know had formed.
"What are you thinking?" He asked me.
"I'm thinking of how you do it." I said.
"Do what?"
"Well the whole vampire thing."
"Well what do you want to know?"
"Well let's start with some of the things I've heard."
"Ok that sounds like a good start."
"So let me think. How about with the vampire and sun thing."
"Myth."
"So you don't burn in the sun?"
"No. But something else happens, I'll show you sometime." I laughed under my breath and placed my head on his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around me and pulled me closer. "What else?"
"Um….. how do you go to school if you drink blood?"
"I was hoping you'd ask that. Well as I said before my family is different. We only drink animal blood. However it is still hard to go to school but we want to keep our humanity." I traced circles on his hand.
"So, what about the whole coffin thing?"
"Myth"
"You don't sleep in coffins?"
"We don't sleep at all." He placed his head on mine. I started to feel dizzy as his sweet sent engulfed me.
"Then why do you all have beds, if none of you sleep?"
"Alice thinks it helps us keep up our charade. Plus it's another reason Alice can chop." He laughed.
"I take it Alice likes to shop."
"Likes is an understatement, now Alice needs to shop is more like it." I laughed. "So what else do you want to know?" He said as I continued to trace circles on his hand.
"Everything" I said.
"Everything?"
"Yes, everything"
"Ok well-"
"Jasper! Jasper come on!" Alice screamed as she entered the room.
"What is it Alice?" Jasper asked slightly annoyed.
"There's a thunderstorm, let's go were going to play base ball." Alice continued to scream.
"You play base ball in a thunderstorm?" I asked confused.
"Yea, so come on!" Alice yelled at us then ran downstairs.
"Baseball?" I asked again.
"Yea, you want to come? You could learn something."
"Sure why not, but I'm not playing." I said the last part sternly.
"Even if you did want to play you couldn't keep up with us."
"What's that suppose to mean?"
"Nothing, you'll just have to see for yourself. So let's go." He said getting up, he held his hand out for me which I gladly took. He walked us downstairs, where we found everyone in their baseball gear and getting into cars.
"How are we going to get there?" I asked as the last car left the drive way.
"I'll show you. Just let me go get ready first." I turned around only to find he was already gone. I turned aback around only to feel two cold arms wrap around my waist.
"Ready?" he whispered in my ear. I shivered.
"Yes. But how did you do that? You were gone for less than a minute."
"Oh you'll see." With that e pulled me on his back and started towards the door.
"Jasper what are you doing?" I yelled at him.
"Bells I'm right here you don't have to yell." He said walking out the door.
"Sorry Jasper, can you just tell me what you are doing?"
"I am taking you to our baseball game." I was so confused now I just let my head fall onto his shoulder.
"If you want to know everything about vampires you should watch." I hesitantly picked up my head to see the forest passing by extremely fast. I then looked down to see jasper was running. He was running this?
"WAOH! Jasper!" I said. He looked up at me and smirked. "How are you doing this?"
"Just a little vampire skill we have."
"WAOH! What else can you do?"
"Well we are extremely strong, and some of us have gifts."
"Like what kind of gifts?"
"Well Edward can read minds, Alice can see the future, and I can control emotions or they can control me."
"So did Alice see the storm 'cause it doesn't look like a storm is coming."
"Pretty much but we can only play during storms."
"ok?"
"You'll see why."
"Ok but I really want to know more about your gift. How does the whole thing work?"
"Well I can show you better than I can tell you."
"Huh?....JASPER HALE YOU PUT ME DOWN RIGHT NOW!" I yelled at him. I was really mad for no reason. I heard him chuckle. Then I felt different. "Oh Jasper I love you so much!" I held him tighter and placed a kiss on his cheek. I nuzzled my nose there when I was finished.
"I told you I could show you better." He laughed again.
"Jasper you did that to me?"
"Yes I did." He said proud of himself. I slapped him, which hurt me more than him.
"Don't ever do that again!"
"Why not?"
"Because I hated being mad at you." I said and kissed his cheek again. I nuzzled myself in his golden curs and surrounded myself in his sent. He chuckled again.
"We're here." He whispered to me. I picked up my head to see a huge clearing in front of us.
