A/N Hello everybody! So, i finally got something written for you. I know it's been a long time, but i hope you can forgive me. Life has been so crazy lately! But, thats part of being an adult i guess. I'll see you at the bottom. This is split into two parts.
Jaspers P.O.V.
Out of all the ways for her to find out about what us Cullen's really were, I wish it could have been different. Something that wasn't scary and tramatic for Aubrey. She had been with us for a week; The entire time everyone was tiptoeing around the subject, trying to find the words to say, and the time to say them. But even Alice didn't see this one coming.
It was early evening, and the family was in the front room, gathered in front of the T.V. Aubrey was glued to my side, unbothered by my cold, hard as a rock form. A pizza box sat in front of everyone, eaten only by Aubrey, while others of us pretended to enjoy the human food. Despite the pressure of figuring out how to break the ice, it had been a surprisingly comfortable week. Aubrey was very human, but everyone made sure to hunt often, so there were no slip ups.
Carlisle walked into the room, and put a few envelopes on the side table by the door. He smiled at us all, his eyes lingering on Aubrey. "Aubrey, there's a letter for you on the table." He says smiling at her. "For me?" Aubrey asks quietly. Aubrey gets up, as well as Bella and Edward to check the mail pile. They crowd around the table, and Bella hands Aubrey her letter. Aubrey murmurs a soft thanks, and turns the envelop over, and sticks her finger under the edge of the flap and jerks it under the opening.
"Shoot." She mutters to herself. I jerk my head up at her, as do the others. I see her pull her finger out, and examine it. "Paper cut."
And then I smelled it.
Blood.
Bella's P.O.V.
It took about 3 seconds for the smell of Aubrey's blood to hit everyone, and for the trainquility to be shattered.
"No!" Edward roared. He and Jasper moved at the same time. He threw himself at Aubrey, flinging her away from Jazz, and unfortunately into another side table, knocking over the glass vases, and leaving Aubrey sitting in a mess of shattered crystal.
Jasper slammed into Edward, and the sound was like the crash boulders made in a rock slide. Carlisle ran into the room just in time to see Jasper crash into the T.V. He flew back on to his feet growling a grisly snarl from deep inside his chest. He charged forward and tried to shove past Edward, snapping his teeth just inches from Edwards face.
I went for Aubrey, who watched on with horror etched on her face, and blood pulsing out from a wound on her arm. At the same time, Emmett grabbed Jasper from behind, locking him into his steely grip, but Jasper struggled on with his wild empty eyes focused only on Aubrey. "Emmett, Edward, get Jasper outside." Carlisle said in his quiet authoritative voice. They began to pull Jasper outside, but then his body relaxed, and he seemed to come to his senses. Suddenly His brothers weren't pulling him, Jasper was running as fast as he could from the house, away from the smell, away from a mistake he never wanted to make. Rosalie quickly turned and followed the guys outside. Esme had her hand covering her mouth and nose. She looked ashamed when she looked over at Aubrey. "I'm so sorry Aubrey."She cried as she rushed out of the room.
Aubrey's P.O.V.
Oh god, it hurt. After my adrenaline stopped pumping, I could feel my arm throbbing as it bled. Carlisle knelt beside me, and I tried to compose my face as best I could. "Here, Carlisle." Alice said, handing him a towel. He shook his head. "Too much glass in the wound." He said. He pulled his tie off, and twisted it around my arm to make a tourniquet. "Aubrey, I am so sorry… This wasn't howthis was supposed to be."Bella said. I thought about what she was getting at, to mull over what had actually taken place. I closed my eyes, and it all rushes back to me. Cold, hard skin; The strange eye color; The lack of eating; The reaction of blood. Could the cullen's be….
"Aubrey," Carlisle said softly. "Do you want me to drive you to the hospital, or would you like me to take care of it here?"
"Here. Please."I said quietly. "Alright. Alice, get my bag. Bella, Edward, lets take her to the kitchen table."Carlisle says. Bella and Edward lifted me effortlessly, and walked me into the kitchen. The doctors bag was there already, and a bright desk light was on the table. Bella and Edward sat me carefully into a chair, and Carlisle went to work at once, both standing next to me, still very protective. "Just go Edward." Bella said quietly to him. "I can handle it."He insisted. But his jaw was ridged, and his eyes burned black. Out of them all, only Bella and Carlisle were completely composed, both of them golden eyed. "Edward, go get some fresh air."She replied. I winced as Carlisle did something to my arm that stung. "Why are you so masochistic…"Bella sighed. Carlisle decided to intercede. "Edward, son, you may as well go find Jasper before he gets too far. I'm sure he's very upset with himself, and I doubt that he will listen to anyone but you right now."
"Yes." Bella agreed. "Go find Jasper." "You might as well do something useful."Alice added.
Edwards eyes narrowed as they ganged up on him. "Edward… Please go talk to Jasper." I said. He looked at me, and nodded once before heading out the kitchens back door.
A numb, dead feeling was spreading through my arm. Though it erased the sting, it reminded me of the wound, and I watched Carlisle's face carefully. If the cullen's were what I now believed them to be, I wasn't sure how the good doctor could be doing this. There was no pain now, just a gentle tugging sensation that I tried to ignore. I looked up to see Alice give up. With an apologetic smile, she disappeared through the kitchen doorway. "Well, that's most of them. I can clear a room at least." I sighed, trying to make a tasteless joke.
"It's not your fault," Carlisle comforted me with a small chuckle. "It couls happen to anyone."
Bella sat on the floor next to me, and watched me with concern on her face. Her and carlisle's reaction was so different from the others. The doctor worked with quick, sure movements, no trace of anxiety on his face. The only sound was the soft plink, plink as the fragments of glass dropped one by one onto the table. Suddenly I got the courage to just ask the question, something I needed to know.
"Are you all vampires?"
A/N DUn, DUN, DUN! And finally she asks! I know what you're thinking. "This sounds a lot like what happened at Bella's bday party". It's very similar, but it wasn't a party. I wanted something to happen that would lead to Aubrey asking the Cullens about what they are, but i didn't want it to be they just sit down and say "Surprise! We're vamps!" Or something happens to Aubrey like she gets kidnapped by some other vamps who torture her and eventually kill her. i thought this was a better direction. Anyways, i'll have the 2nd half of this chapter up very soon. R/R if you love Jasper! Also, you probably noticed this chapter was writen differently. I decided to do P.O.V's correctly from now on. And, i'm also looking for a Beta. That would help me out a lot. Love yo faces, and i'll see you next time.
