When we arrive back at the house Jasper places me gently on the couch and that's when I realize that he's covered in blood, his shirt has this huge puddle of blood in the middle. I blinked and his family stared in shock as he flashed out of the room. Carlisle stood, but before he could get within ten feet of me to see if I was hurt or anything. Jasper was there in a new pair of jeans holding his hand up, a warning to Carlisle that said, 'go near her and I will not be able to control myself'.
I blink up at him, his entire body twitching with fury. He slips a shirt over his head, still standing, protectively, in front of me. "What happened?" Carlisle demands in a way a father would demand answers from his child.
Jasper said nothing just stared as he pulled his shirt down all of the way. His jaw grinds for a few minutes before he answers, "I killed her foster parents." He states, fists clenched and I watch his back roll with the need to hit something.
"I gathered that, how did you do it?" Carlisle asks and Jasper inhales deeply before shrugging.
A sick glint crosses his eyes when he explained. "I broke every bone in the man's body. The woman's head was ripped off." He answers, as if talking about the weather.
"Why?" I whisper and he spins around glaring down at me.
"Oh, I'm sorry, were you not there? Because when I came in you were choking on your own damn blood and he was kicking the living shit out of you, I'm sorry I stopped that from occurring, Tessa, please forgive me." He states, the sarcasm was unneeded and I pushed from the couch, getting into his face, fury in my eyes and body.
"I was there, Jasper. I'm very aware of what he was doing to me, but believe me there has been a lot worse than that. I was handling it." I hissed and he nodded, shrugging, and crossing his arms.
"Oh, yes, you were handling a grown man getting ready to kick your face in. Of course." He states like a douche. I glare. Then I fall back onto the couch, it hurt to breathe. My jaw tightened as I shut my eyes. I inhale and swallow before opening my eyes and searching the ground.
"I'm not mad that you killed them, Jasper. I sure as hell won't be missing them, but you don't need that on your conscience there was other ways of dealing with it." I ground out, he didn't need guilt over me. He stares at me.
"I got a lot on my conscience, sweetheart, that won't join it." He shrugged as if it were nothing.
"You killed two people." I say, incredulously.
"Yes and I've killed many more than that, believe me they'll just be lost in the hundreds of faces." He walks out of the room and I stare straight ahead. Growling I push from the couch and Tanya's lips part as she reaches out, but ends up saying nothing.
I find him walking toward the woods. "Jasper-." I was cut off by him turning around very fast his hand going out.
"I need to go eat something, you cannot come, go back inside and let Carlisle look at your injuries." He says and I swallow, grabbing his bicep and he turns again.
"You just don't quit, do-." I cut him off by crushing my lips to his. His mouth opens over mine on a sigh. His hands hold gently on my sides as mine grip his neck. Our mouths moved quickly and my head tilted to get a deeper angle. When his tongue slides along mine, any pain and everything else flew from my mind.
The kiss was painfully good. His lips were cold, but surprisingly soft as they ran across mine in a frenzied lust that felt as if it were a ticking bomb ready to go off. Unlike him, I needed air. I pushed on his chest, pulling my head back slightly and turning as I sucked in pants of air. His lips didn't leave my skin though and he placed open-mouthed kisses along my jaw and down my neck. I gasped in a surprised pleasure as he sucked on my pulse. He grinned against it and I shook my head.
"Smug little bas-" He cut me off by kissing me again.
"Jasper!" We broke apart and turned to see Emmett.
"Oh, uh, nothing, Esme just wants Tessa inside, she's concerned about the bruising around her neck." Emmett gives Jasper a look and I touch the skin of my throat and swallow, it's raw. Jasper glares at it and sighs before gently pulling my arm from around his neck and setting me down, carefully.
"Alright, go get patched up, little soldier. I'll be back later." He murmurs and I stare at him.
"Why do I have little attached to my nickname?" I snap and he rolls his eyes.
"Just go." He says and I smile softly.
"Okay, go get me out of your system." I tease sweetly and his eyes darken, with lust this time. Okay, I kind of like the black eyes now.
"I'll try, go." He nods toward the house and I turn holding onto my stomach that was now hurting like a bitch. God, well, at least I got to kiss him. I grin placing my fingers to my lips as I jog up the hill and into the Cullen house.
Carlisle spent so much time patching my torso that I was ready to slap him. "I know it's uncomfortable, Tessa, but necessary, I'm concerned about internal bleeding, but in all honesty it might not be that bad. We'll keep this patching around it so that the raw skin doesn't become more injured." He states, professionally and I nod, shrugging.
"That means, you have to be careful for the next couple weeks. No running, no heavy lifting, no sex." He adds casually as he stares down at his notepad. I blink innocently up at him.
"No sex?!" I exclaim and his lips twitch up.
"Fuck and I was so planning on seducing your son tonight. Dammit!" I exclaim, pouting and his lips twitch up as he nods. I smile at him.
"I'm coming to like your sarcasm." He states and I smile broadly up at him.
"Thank you." I chirp and inhale deeply.
"Um . . . Carlisle, I know that I probably should be asking a woman this, but seeing as you're the only doctor in the house, I suppose you'll do. So can I ask you something?" I say, hesitantly and he just stares at me, before glancing to the side.
"Of course." He states and I nod, swallowing.
"Okay, well I can't have children, okay?" I ask and he blinks before nodding.
"It's just something I was born with and anyways, not having eggs means that I do not have a menstrual cycle." I state staring at him to see if he was still following. He nods, waving his hand for me to continue.
"Well, I've been having blood discharge down there and um, that never happened with the Leukemia before, so." I say shifting and he blinks.
"Um, I don't know. I'm not a gynecologist, but I do have friends. I don't believe that it's a symptom of Leukemia, but I'll look into it, alright?" He asked and I nodded before sliding from the bed and walking out of the room and down the stairs. I plop down next to Bella and grin broadly up at him.
"Hi!" I chirp and she glances over at me, giving me a look.
Something on the T.V. caught my eye and I looked up seeing the heading.
Horrible murder and death of two locals: By beast.
