Chapter 10: Blood Bar
Well the big one-o. I'm glad I have made it this far. Hopefully we can get to twenty! Then Thirty. I don't know wether I will do a sequel or just start another project, hey, there will be a poll on my profile, so vote! It will be withstanding for a while, so I don't care if new readers vote in a few weeks/months. Sorry for the long update period but my car had to have work done! By the way, does anyone look at the pictures on my profile? Does anyone read this?
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Twilight, or it's characters.
"Jasper, this is perfect!" I said. He smiled, "I'm glad you're happy," he said. I laughed. "Well, there is one more surprise…" he said. I mentally cringed. "Follow me" he said, and he led us back towards the car. But now a car covered with a cover was next to Jasper's M5. It was a truck. Jasper walked over to it, and ripped off the cover. There, looking brand new was my truck. All of the chrome was re-done, and the red paint was no longer faded, and was now a dark grey colour. It was still the same height, and it hadn't been lowered. The wheels had been changed to flash chrome ones, and Jasper thoughts told me it had a new engine.
"My god, is it the same truck?" I asked.
"Sure is" he smirked, but his face then turned serious.
"Alice insisted on helping Rosalie, she did the designing, and part of the work. Rose wasn't happy, but she let Alice have her chance to say sorry" he said.
I sighed. "I- I'm not sure wether it will be the same ever again, I mean I can't just let go," I said.
"I think she knows that, but…Well, I don't want to bring her into this, as I don't want you to be forced into a decision" Jasper was fiddling with his jacket.
"Who?" I asked.
"Well, this whole ordeal has been stressful on Esme, and Carlisle too. They love us, and they love them, but they know we can't live under the same roof without complete restraint" He tried a joke, but I wasn't n the mood for laughter.
I was only feeling guilt. How could I do that to Carlisle and Esme? My stupid feelings and me. I decided I would try and be civil.
"I'm sorry Bella. You shouldn't be feeling guilty. They know you need time. I'm sorry I never should have bought this up, I'm sorry," he said.
"No Jasper, you're right. I'm being a pain in the behind; I'll try and be more civil. I'm the one who should be sorry," I said.
"You know what that means? No more smash up Edward's new Volvo every week" he said, trying to be down. I laughed; he could be such a good actor…
"Thirsty?" he asked, breaking my fantasies. I only then realised the annoying burn my throat. "Let's go!" I said, putting in as much enthusiasm as possible.
We turned and ran to the forest. "Okay, today will be a different type of hunt, we won't let our instincts loose. It will be hard for you I think, but I have faith in you" he said. I smiled. Jasper could always make me feel better. Well, he was an empath. "Follow Me," he said, sniffing the air. I followed him to where some foxes we lying down in the shade. He was gone for a moment, and then came back with a fox. "Now all you'll need is basically 5 mouthfuls, then I'll have the rest" I nodded, and summed up all of my control. I leant down, and pierced the fur. I tuned out the howling and whining, I always hated that. I pulled myself from the fox, it was easier than I expected.
I read Wuthering Heights in my mind until he was done, I preferred hunting with my instincts, where I was oblivious to most things. For hours, we hunted amazing creatures, Fox, Coyote, Cheetah, Lion (No mountains), tigers, leopards, and even a little mouse creature that was the size of a baby fox.
Once done, we walked back to the spot where the black Cadillac was. It wasn't there. I looked at Jasper. "Don't worry, Emmett and Rose bought them home" he said. I smiled. "You think of everything don't you?" I hugged him. "Today was perfect. As we walked out to the car park of the lookout, my spirits plummeted. Three boys where there, and they were from school.
Too make it worse, they were leaning on Jasper's car, looking at me, and their car was broken down. "Get of my car" he said coldly to the drooling boys. "Hey! Can't you help us?" "Sorry, my father is in hospital" Jasper lied smoothly. It was getting dark, and I asked at vampire speed and sound "Can't you just tell them what's wrong?" Jasper nodded ever so slightly.
"Is that a puddle of petrol? Your fuel line is screwed. Call a tow truck," he said. "But I don't have a cell phone on me" he said. I sighed. I handed him my iPhone. "Thank you sweet heart," he said, I ignored the nickname. Hmm, maybe I can get her number off of here… "If you try and get my number off of there, I will buy a new phone" I said. Damn, Can she read minds or something? If only you knew. Man I hated teenagers, true, I was only 19, but they were so immature.
"What's the number again?" he asked. I told him, and he typed it in on the digital number pad. He told them the location, and handed me back my phone. I jumped in the car in an as fast as possible human pace, and waited for Jasper to drive away. He jumped in, and slammed on the accelerator.
We were home extremely quick because of Jasper's even more flat out driving. We zoomed into the driveway, and a nervous Alice was behind the door.
This was going to be awkward. I opened the door, and Alice started immediately. "Did you like it? Did you not like it? On my god, you don't, I'm sorry, I'll fix it. I'm sorry for everything Bella. I've been terrible and I deserve to die, Oh I just screw everything up!" I did what my reflexes told me to do, I hugged her.
She stiffened, surprised, but hugged me back. "Things will never be the same Alice, but I'll try to be civil," I said. "Thank you" Alice said softly. I pulled away to see Esme and Carlisle gleaming with smiles. "My girls" Esme whispered. Carlisle wore a proud smile. "Thank you" he said. I nodded, and headed out to the garage to look at my truck again.
Okay, It's short I know, and I said they'd get longer. I'm sorry, but My time is taken up, and I had to get something out, I may even make a chapter tomorrow, so say sorry for this. I know it annoys you, these short chapters, I get annoyed too, but I'm doing the best I can. I'm sorry guys, but I hope you like this anyways! R & R!
