Chapter 9

Alice

The party was different than what I had been to. I mean I had been to a bunch of Lauren's party's, but really I had never been to one of these parties with a date waiting for me. Really though, I was so happy to just have a date. And much more than that, I was happy that Jasper was going to be there. He was my soul mate, I knew it. Sure I hadn't actually talked to him, or seen him more than once, but I knew that I was going to be with him forever.

Bella never understood that kind of mumbo jumbo, but I didn't care. I believed enough for the two of us. Just picturing Jasper holding me in my arms made me wet, and I couldn't wait to see him once more, and I could actually talk to him too! It only made me happier, and more hyper as Bella said. It also made me more determined to dress us in the hottest, most sexy clothes that I could get my hands on.

I put Isabella in a midnight black dress that was covered from end to end in black lace, there wasn't a section of the dress not covered in lace. I made sure it was really tight and accented her every curve. I knew Isabella had a body, and even though she can dress herself, sometimes she couldn't dress in her body type correctly. Red Juicy pumps that made her a few more inches taller. I loved to see Bella's long legs. Not that I was a lesbian or anything, but she should use what she has, because if she doesn't I will most defiantly use my assets. I did her make up natural other than her blood red lips that matched the same shade as her pumps. Her hair was loose, and we used a longer blonde wig to make her Bella hair style longer, and the waves cascaded down her back with a small head band in her hair to contrast her 'light blonde' hair with a small red bow on it.

My outfit was more innocent than her, a total opposite actually, but I planned it that way. I found a white dress with three ruffles along the bottom half of the dress and the middle layer was an ivory color than white. A thin red belt went around my waist, and sat just under my breasts. The black designs all along the dress reminded me of flowers and I thought it looked amazing.

As we all walked into the party, I could feel eyes on us, but mostly Rosalie. She was to beautiful for her own good. I was on Isabella's right and Rose on her left. I could see Jasper standing next to Edward, and I could feel myself gravitating towards him almost. He was so beautiful, if a man can be beautiful. Isa told me that Edward told her that Jasper was nineteen and in collage. I loved how Bella was a spy type person for me and Rose on the guys that were always on our mind.

Jasper was standing basically in my spot next to Edward wearing a plain white tee shirt and a pair of light washed jeans. I could tell that they had designer origins, but I didn't have a clear enough view to see what designer it was. A black jacket covered his arms that I could tell were so very muscular. He was leaner than Emmett, but stronger than Edward, but that might have been just due to his sheer age. Jasper's long blonde hair was shining lightly under the dim-ish light. It was slightly wavy and looked amazing on him. I could tell that people were affected by Jasper, I didn't know how, but maybe I had a secret sense about people too. I was always telling Isa I was psychic. I think she was just humoring me though.

"Hey Edward!" Bella called with a smile as we walked closer to the boys, and it seemed all three of them only had gotten hotter as we got closer.

"Hey there Bells," Edward grinned. They were so cute together, but they were always dancing on the edge of their relationship.

After Edward took in about what seemed like five minutes, I was also looking Jasper down. I had read in Seventeen to always keep a smile on your face when you like a guy, but not creepy smiles, normal, 'Hey I like you,' smiles. And i was good at them.

"You look amazing Bella," Was the last thing I heard Edward whisper before Jasper held out his arm to escort me somewhere, it was the most romantic thing I had ever seen, let alone have done to me. I wrapped my arm around his gracefully and smiled up at Jasper. He was so much taller than me, even when I was in heels, but I loved how he smiled down at me. It made me feel tall.

I completely believed that Jasper was my soul mate. We had never spoke before, and I had only seen him twice. But we seemed so in sync with each other and I squeezed his arm a little tighter as I thought about how perfect Jasper was.

He lead me to a small corner in the living room where we could watch people dance, or just talk. The sound system was in the family room, so I could easily talk to Jasper, but when he leaned forward to whisper in my ear, I had never felt so special.

"Hello Alice... We had never gotten a chance to formally meet." He whispered in my ear. I could feel his warm breath on my ear and neck. Normally I would have been so grossed out, and discussed. But Jasper's breath was cool like mint, and felt like a security blanket wrapping around me.

"Hello Jasper, I'm Alice." I whispered back to him, wrapping my arms around Jasper's neck. Until then I hadn't realized I was sitting on his lap, but I was small, I was light. He wouldn't notice. As I wrapped my arms around his neck, it brought our faces closer together. Our lips were close, and my ass was digging into his semi erect cock.

"How do you know Bella?"

Shit.

I hated answering this question.

"Oh, we had been friends since we were little. But I moved up here when I was younger so we kept in touch with letters when we were a part. Shes my best friend." I half lied easily.

Jasper nodded his head and peeked around me to see Edward standing on the porch alone, looking over the stars. When Isa had come out of the kitchen with two cups I could see the gears turning in Jasper's head. He knew that Bella was Isabella and Isabella was Bella.

Jasper tried getting up, but I wiggled a bit, trying to make him stay sititng down.

"Stay with me?" I whispered, my lips pulling into a slight pout. As Isabella's best friend, it was my job to keep her secrets.

"I'll go get us some drinks." Jasper said slowly and gently slid me off his lap. Before he left, I felt his lips touch my forehead.

I watched Jasper walk towards the kitchen and stop Isabella. I couldn't help myself but to watch. I didn't want Jasper to get up and walk over there though. If not fore Isabella's sake, but for my own. I felt bare without Jasper next to me. I knew deep down I was meant to be with him. I might be seen as crazy to think that, but it made so much sense to me. It was why I was never attracted to other guys, or girls (I never had, nor I never will). But I only saw Jasper in this crowded room and I was so excited to have this feeling. I may not know his favorite color yet, or how he liked his coffee, but I would one day, and I would forever cherish Jasper in every way someone could be cherished.

Watched the reactions on both Isa and Jasper's faces made me worried. My best friend was on the verge of tears, and I was just sitting here watching it happen. It killed me inside and I wanted to help, but I knew I should stay out of it. All I could do was make sure Isabella put on her big girl panties in the morning. They way Isa held a gun was where all her confidence was, and I knew it. Without a gun she felt weak. Isa could do anything though, and I knew it. But she had told me countless times before that Edward would bring her to her knees one day, that he was her weakness, and he didn't even know the power he had over her.

I looked over when I saw the sliding glass doors open and saw Edward walk quickly to his brother and Isabella. I couldn't tell if he was more furious at his brother for clearly upsetting Isa, or more upset for Isabella because his brother had upset her.

Words were exchanged and Edward lead Isa back outside. She looked like she was about to cry and I knew that Jasper shouldn't have done what he did, or maybe he should have. I have been telling Bella for weeks now that she should tell Edward who Bella was, and that she was fake and Isabella, herself, was in love with Edward.

Jasper was back a few minutes later, a beer bottle in one hand, a Mike's Hard Lemonade in the other with a little pink straw poking out the top. He knew me so well, and we didn't really know each other yet. MHL was the only alcohol I ever drank, only because it didn't make me sick and I actually liked the taste. I didn't even like wine or champagne.

"I thought you would like this." Jasper smiled handing me my bottle. He sat back down on the couch next to me and I wiggled my way back into his side, cuddling a bit against him. "Never thought Id feel this way about a girl.. Especially a high school girl." He laughed softly.

I looked up at Jasper and saw him smiling down at me. I could see adoration in his eyes, and something I couldn't quiet place. Betrayal? Confusion? Hurt? I knew he liked me, but maybe he was someone that didn't like lying.

"Your nineteen, and technically a teenager yourself. High school is only a state of mind. Id like to think that I at least act like a Sophmore in collage." I said with a shrug and took a small sip of my lemonade.

"I feel bad that I don't know your age."

"Seventeen." I glanced up at Jasper who raised his eyebrows up at me and my nonchalant-ness of the situation. "Don't worry Jazz, the legal age of consent is seventeen. We can bone if you want."

Jasper's jaw dropped at what I told him and I couldn't help but giggle.

"I was only kidding. I have morals, and a strict, well mostly strict Catholic moral code." I giggled and kissed his cheek softly.

He took a long deep drink of his beer and wiped his forehead theatrically. "Your a pistol, Ill give you that much." Jasper laughed and hugged me closer to him.

I loved how Jasper held me close instead of pushing me away. No one but Isa and my aunt knew that I was abused when I was little by my father. I didn't want that to define me for the rest of my life, and I wanted to move past it. My father was a drug addict so he dealt with his anger by using me as his punching bag. I was always so small, it made me an easy target. I was small compared to Jasper, but he didn't want to hit me, he only wanted to care for me, at least, I hoped that was all he wanted from me.

"You know about Bella don't you?" I whispered, nursing my lemonade gently in my hands. I couldn't look at Jasper, and whatever light hearted mood we had was gone now.

I felt Jasper nod and I glanced up at him. His eyes were sad, and that only made me sadder.

"Are you going to tell him, are you going to tell Edward what you know?" I whispered softly to Jasper. I wanted to make sure my best friend was safe, we were all playing with fire getting to know the Cullen boys. Even for Rose it was dangerous for her to hang out with Emmett, she could find out that we were associated with the mafia life, with all the horrors she saw in the papers, they were both the Swan's, and the Cullen's doing. Plus multiple other mafia families that rivaled us and wanted to destroy us.

I didn't want to think about that though, I didn't want to think about how several factors came in through other things. I didn't want to think that if Rose found out that we were involved in the mafia, then she would tell her parents, and then it would spread through Chicago's society.

If the Cullen's knew that Bella was Isabella, they would have a field day with that information, especially if they knew and she didn't know that they knew. They could easily kill her as Bella and they could just... Let her die and they would go after Charlie. The Swan's were my second family, more likely my first even though I loved my aunt I never saw her around. So they Swan's were my family... I didn't want anyone hurt. I knew that the mafia and organized crime was a dangerous business, but I never thought that Charlie Swan would ever die. Then again I never thought his father would die either. This was a scary thought and it made me shiver.

Jasper felt me shiver, so he pulled my closer to him and I felt him kiss my forehead once more.

"I know we haven't known each other long... But I feel like we should be together... Forever." He whispered the last word breathlessly and I could feel my heart beat faster in my chest. "I've never felt this pull towards a girl.. And I know your young, and your parents must have embedded it in your brain that older guys only want sex... But I won't push you... Or make you feel bad, or sad..."

I couldn't take it any longer. It might have been the alcohol that made me so bold, but I couldn't take it anymore. I crushed my lips against Jasper's hard, but I didn't force my tongue into his mouth like a drunk girls kiss. I lead it, and I kept it soft and slow. But there was a hidden edge in it. I had never been so moved by some ones words before and I had to show him how much I appreciated them. I wasn't going to have sex with him right there, I mean I had dignity, but Jasper was going to take my virginity one day, I knew it with that kiss. He was being so gently with me and our lips danced together in sync and it was like we had been kissing forever. It was nothing like my first kiss with some kid named Jason, who's lips were so slobbery it was gross and I threw up afterward.

I would have kept kissing Jasper if we weren't shaken by someone and I spilled my Mike's Hard all over the floor.

It was Emmett and Rose. Rosalie's face was covered in panic and I knew something was wrong. My eyes flashed to Jasper's who immediately stood up and pulled me off the couch with him a little more forcefully than I wanted him to. My mind quickly flashed to a time when my father pulled me into the bathroom and threw me in the bathtub when I had a speck of mud on my ankle from walking home from school since he couldn't, or wouldn't pick me up. He was angry that I was dirty and said that no pure blood Italian stayed dirty so he threw me in the bathtub and made me take a full on shower. I could still smell the beer on his skin and I felt my eyes weld up with tears. I knew that Jasper didn't mean to hurt me, or to make me think of my sick father. But I couldn't help my minds thoughts.

"The cops are on their way." Emmett said roughly as he and Jasper guided me and Rosalie into the hallway.

I saw three options there.

One: We go out the front door and we just act like nothing has happened.

Two: Out the back door, and run into the woods.

Three: Side door, there was houses and we could go through their back yards and such.

"Follow me!" I all but screamed, pulling Jasper towards the side door and ditched my heels in the trash can on the way. I knew we would be hopping fences and running through bushes. I knew how important it was to get out of that party. If the cops found the Cullen's, and Isabella they would freak and arrest them on the spot for what their families have done.

Everyone followed me soon after and caught on quickly. Even Rosalie took off her Channel heels and ran. She was scared shitless, but she was only scared of being caught drinking at a party full of teenagers. Even though she was twenty-one, Rose would get in trouble for possibly buying the beer for everyone. She didn't know that her boyfriend was a killer, and I wasn't going to be the one to tell her.

Running was fairly easy. We were all in good shape and we could hear the yelling and screaming and sirens from the party only about three minutes after we left. I just prayed that Edward and Isabella made it out ok.

Finally after running for about ten minutes we were far enough away from the party to catch our breath and called Edward. It was Jasper's idea. He knew that I was worried about Isabella and he was worried about is own brother. I made Jasper put it on speaker so that I could hear if Bella was there.

"Jasper?" We all heard Edward yell into the phone. There was a slight panic to his voice I didn't like.

"Edward dude your ok!" Jasper yelled back. I was so excited that Edward answered and we all knew it was a good sign.

"Yeah, I was outside and ran when the cops came."

"We ran out the side door when we heard the cops coming. No one else heard because they were either to busy fucking or doing drugs."

"Are the girls with you?"Edward asked, he was a smart one who caught on quickly. I smiled at Rose and Emmett and Jasper taking that as a sign that everything was going to be ok.

"Yeah, Alice's idea to run out the side door actually. I thought Rose was going to be a bitch about running, but she was to freaked to care... Ouch! Mother fucker come on now!" Jazz yelled after Rosalie's fist came in contact with his arm, the girl was tough when she wanted to be. "Rose hit me..."

"Just come find me jackass. I want to get home. And I'm sure there's still some cops running around. You know how much they would love to catch a Cullen."

"Where are you?"

"Corner of Violetta Drive and Smithson Road."

"Be there in a bit." Jasper said, snapping his phone shut and turning to us. "Lets go pick up Edward."

I nodded and linked my arm through Jasper's, hanging slightly on his arm as if he was escorting me, and took in a deep breath of his scent. He smelled like pine, and cigarettes. Mostly I hated the smell of cigarettes, but it seemed to complete Jasper. He was perfect in my eyes, and nothing could compare to him. Ever.

Emmett was walking next to us, and was giving Rosalie a piggy back ride since she didn't want to ruin her pedicure more than it has been. They were cute together, and it seemed almost liked they balanced one another out. Hell, maybe they were soul mates too.

When we were getting close to the street, we saw a dark black car drive by. No one thought much of it except that they were probably on their way home. No one even really said anything about it, no one cared.

I shivered lightly and Jasper took off his jacket, and gently laid it over my shoulders. It smelled like him, and I loved how it was to big for my pettie body.

We were on the corner of Violetta Drive and Smithson Road, but there was no Edward. We expected him to be standing there waiting, and he wasn't there.

As soon as we got there, I saw Isabella run up to us.

She looked liked hell. Her wig was gone, and her long brown hair was down her back. Isabella's dress was tattered and ripped like no other and there was mud on her knees. There were twigs in her hair and scratches down her arms. I was surprised that she was crying or something. I knew Isa was tough, but not this tough. Her eyes were red and puffy and tears were falling freely from her eyes. I'd never seen Isabella cry and I knew something was wrong.

"Someone came and took Edward!" She half yelled and half screams.

"What?" Everyone seemed to say at the same time. As soon as those words were out of her mouth, I knew that Isa was freaked out and scared.

"Edward and I ran through the woods to get away from the police and I lost my wig and I had to get away from him before he saw me. But I stayed close enough for me to watch him and stuff... He was taken! I couldn't do anything because I was too far away, it was to fast and I couldn't see who took him! I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! I should have thought when I was getting ready and brought my gun, but I didn't think-"

Isabella was cut off by Rosalie slapping her.

"Get a hold of yourself! Dammit, so someone just fucking kidnapped him?" Rose screeched and put her hands on her hips.

Bella nodded mutely and bit her lower lip. The tears had stopped, but she looked like she was going to break down at any second.

"Aro... Aro Volturi... Simple as that. They want the power, they can't take down the Swan's, so they go for second in power and rank. Us." Emmett said emotionlessly.

"Who are the Volturi?" Rose asked shocked. She hadn't experienced anything like this before. If Emmett had noticed Bella was no longer here, he didn't show it, or care for that matter. Maybe he knew all ready too.

"A family-" Jasper started saying, but I cut him off.

"It doesn't matter Rose, now we just need to get home. I know your worried and stuff about Edward, but we need to go and let the family deal with it." I said quickly, pulling away reluctantly from Jasper and to Rosalie's side, pulling her towards the street corner we had wondered from. The Swan's had a driver, and I could always call him to pick me up. I gave his number a ring, and told him where we were at and he said he would be there in about fifteen minutes.

"Why? We need to call the police!" Rosalie all but yelled.

It was my turn to slap Rosalie.

"We just came from a party with alcohol, and yes a missing person is more important, but most likely people are still running and messing around at the party. So we're on our own right now." I growled, turning towards Isa. "See you at home?" I asked softly and she nodded.

The Cullen boys surrounded her, talking and trying to figure out what all she knew and if she knew where Edward might be and stuff like that.

I made sure that Rose couldn't hear their conversation, and soon the car pulled up, taking me and Rosalie away.

"Why couldn't we stay... Or call the cops... Why did Isabella stay with them..." Rosalie asked softly.

"I'm not a loud to answer you Rose." I answered mechanically. I couldn't say anything to her either, and if I could, I wasn't sure where I would begin.

The ride home was quiet, and the house was even quieter as we walked inside. Everyone was asleep, and I wished that I could just hear some kind of movement from somewhere. It was creepy to walk into a mansion and there be no noise.

As me and Rose walked up the grand staircase I wondered if Edward was ok, if Isabella was alright, where was she and if she could take care of herself without her gun. I was so worried I could barely stand up, then again I might just have been exhausted also.

I made sure that Rose was safe in her guest room. Her room was always the same, away from Isabella's room and away from Charlie's office. Isabella and Charlie's rooms were sound proof, so Rose would never hear anything that would happen or what words would be said behind those walls.

I climbed a few more stairs, and walked a few more feet into Isabella's room. I looked at the wall paper, then the carpet. I could see that my bare feet had left little dirt prints on the floor. I would have to ask the maid to clean it soon, otherwise Isabella's carpet would be ruined.

I didn't care about the sheets, or anything else, I just stripped down to my strapless bra and panties, climbing in Isa's bed, letting the blankets consume me.

As I waited for sleep, I started to become numb, and I waited for some other feeling to take over as I slept away the night slowly.

Soooooooooooooooooooooo Whatcha all think? I was thinking Bella's pov, just doing the story how I was doing it before. Alice's pov was just a treat lol.
