YAY! As promised here is the next chapter, I know its 22 minuets late but I had one of those weekends were you wonder why they call it the weekend!

Empath will be updated in about an hour after I finish checking it over. Tell me if you love it I'm a bit unsure of this chap and some of it left me going wtf! but i wrote it and here it is!

The night seemed to be moving in slow motion. It felt like a year before I even made it home and the rest of the night wont be any better. Waiting to find out if Bella would still want me was killing me, was one night even enough time for a human to process everything I had told her? Would I have to wait longer? I looked up as I reached the house and was hit with a wave of fury. Edward. The moment he heard me coming he turned to me growling furiously.

'What the Hell took you so long to get here!? What do you think your doing putting Bella on a MOTOR BIKE. Not to mention what were you doing with her anyway? You could have killed her!'

I glared at him. The possessive waves coming from him were getting to me but I had more important things to worry about than arguing with him. 'Mind your own business Edward, both Bella and myself are capable of making our own choices and your possessive carry on has no place in them.' I walked right past him and into the house. His determination to fight with me about my behaviour and his desire to check on Bella waged behind me. By the time I had reached the second floor he was gone.

Carlisle was leaving his study as I reached my door and I could sense he wanted to question me so I stopped to give him his chance.'What was that about with Edward?'

I shrugged. 'I gave Bella a ride to school today and Edward felt it was his place to tell her that she was to fragile to be on a bike and point out my weaknesses. He wanted to confront me about it but I have better things to do so he likely went to check on Bella.'

Carlisle was surprised to hear that Edward was acting oddly in public but I felt his concern overshadow his surprise. He could tell that I was distracted and I was not normally anything but focused. 'Are you still concerned about Edward being able to follow Bella?'

I shook my head and opened my door, I knew I could share anything with Carlisle but I wasn't in the mood for it. Knowing that he would worry for me if I didn't at least give him some information I paused in my doorway. 'I told Bella about Alice.'

Carlisle immediately felt a rush of understanding for my mood but his concern didn't waver. 'It was the right thing to do son, I'm proud of you. It must have been difficult. How did she take it?'

I sighed and shut the door. I knew he would still hear my answer from the other side but it would dull the wave of pity he would give off. 'I don't know yet.' I sank onto the large bed in the centre of my room and pulled a pillow over my face to block the light. It was times like this that left me wishing I could sleep. I hoped that Bella would get some sleep tonight and that I hadn't upset her too much.

I paused in my wondering, if I had distracted Bella enough would she still remember to turn on the box I had given her this morning? She likely didn't want to hear from me right now but I was sure she would rather talk to me for a minuet than be stalked by Edward all night. I filed through my memory and found Chief Swan giving his number to a person who was irrelevant. I pulled my mobile from my pocket and dialled. The ring tone trilled loudly and my anxiety that Bella would hang up on me grew with every second. After the fourth ring I heard the phone connect and heard the sweetest voice answer. 'Hello, Swan residence.'

I swallowed hard forcing my voice to be calm. 'Bella? It's Jasper.' It was silent on the other line except for a small Oh. 'I apologise for calling, I know you proberly don't want to be talking to me. I just realised that I forgot to remind you to turn on the box I gave you this morning. Edward was headed your way and I didn't want you to be unprotected.'

Bella gasped and I heard some fumbling around and then I could hear the painful beeping through the line. I also heard a faint crash and swearing that were undeniably Edward outside her house. 'Thank you Jasper.'

I held the phone away from my ear and raised my voice so Bella could hear it. 'It's fine Bella. Have a good night.' I heard the Chief talking in the back ground and hung up blocking the painful sound. I wondered briefly if Edward had broken anything important but was too happy that Bella hadn't actually hung up on me to care.

I rolled off the bed and picked up my guitar. I needed a distraction or I just might go insane before morning arrived. I played my favourite songs and Esme came to make some requests so I played those too. Just as I was finishing the last of her requests I heard Edward arrive back home and head up to Carlisle's study. I smiled at Esme as she grinned and flitted off to do whatever it was she was doing before I was playing. I strummed the guitar going over the basics so that I could focus on what Edward was saying to Carlisle.

*Over heard conversation.*

'I'm telling you that I can hear something. I cant get anywhere near this place without it feeling like my ears are going to start bleeding! Vampires don't even bleed!'

' Where is it that you need to go that you would have to endure such a thing?'

'It's a girl from school's house.'

'I don't understand, why do you feel the need to go to her home. It seems quite odd, was she expecting you?'

'No. I just need to see her. Jasper has been spending time around this girl and I just want to make sure she's safe but normally there isn't any sound.'

'I'm sure Jasper would have spoken with us if he felt that this girl was in any danger. You say normally though. How often do you watch this girl Edward?'

'It's not even about that. It's this sound, I cant get close enough to see her.'

'Edward I'm sure that there is no need to be watching this poor girl. You should leave her be and then you wont have to feel this pain from the sound.'

'But I need to know what the sound is, if I can stop it…'

'Edward, I have heard of humans developing a natural defence when confronted with our kind. It is rare but they say that the human emit's a high beeping sound that is painful to our kind when they feel subconsciously threatened. It is most surely due to your continued presence.'

'I have never heard of such a thing happening before.'

'As I said Edward, it is quite rare. If you leave the girl be then you will be fine. It is inappropriate that you watch this girl at all anyway. I don't know what has gotten into you that you would even do it in the first place.'

*End conversation.*

I couldn't stop myself from laughing quietly. Edward was completely oblivious and I had never heard Carlisle lie so blatantly to one of the family before and enjoy it so much. Before Edward could realise that I knew what was going on I quickly returned to playing a new song to fill my mind. By the time I perfected it it was only just midnight. I put down my guitar having had barely any interest in playing in the first place, I had too much to think about. I grabbed the bike keys and flitted out into the forest. The night was dark but that made little difference with my eye sight. I ran as deep into the forest as I could without coming too close to the reservation, there was no need to cause trouble. I stopped in a small clearing filled with wild flowers and leant against a tree on the outer edges. It was a beautiful place, certainly good enough to pass some time in. I knew I was well out of range of Edward's gift so I let myself think of Bella.

She had handled everything pretty well considering. At least she had seemed calm and she had still wanted to be near me. If she decided that she wanted noting to do with me would I leave? Could I leave her alone if I stayed? I played the night over and over in my head analysing every word, movement and feeling until it all became a mess. I hoped that Bella would be waiting for me in the morning but I was worried that her human instincts would finally kick in and she would be gone. I looked up at the sudden quiet in the surrounding area. There was a snapping of twigs and a wave of fear and anxiety hit me. It was obviously a lost human, there was no other reason for the person to be here. There was no doubt that the human would die in the forest lost long before they were found. I stood up and flitted silently through the trees until I could see the human. It looked as though it lived on the reservation but it wasn't one of the pack. I knew I had to help, but I didn't really have an explanation for being in the middle of the woods at night.

I decided to wing it and stepped forward making lots of noise. The fear in the human spiked so I began to hum, animals didn't hum so it should reassure the boy. I kept ahead of the human easily keeping up the humming for him to follow. I let him get glimpses of me through the trees and he followed me as I made my way through the trees picking out a path that would be manageable for a human. I reached a sharp cliff face and stopped. If I had to go around it I wouldn't reach the border of the reservation until noon the next day. I stood at the edge of the cliff and waited. The boy was afraid, his natural instincts telling him to stay away from me. I stayed facing the open space over the cliff. 'Are you coming with me?'

The boys heart rate doubled but he edged forward to be a few feet behind me. I kept my face away from his view, it was the only precaution I could make to hope that he wouldn't ID me after I got him home. 'Close your eyes.' His fear was shaking my nerves now and I just wanted to get this done with. 'I'll take you home. I'll keep you safe, you have my word.' I knew I sounded like some character from a novel but it was almost dawn and in the light the boy would see me clearer, I didn't have time. The boy closed his eyes and I turned lifting him with ease and jumped down the cliff. We landed twenty five feet below were we started and I ran through the trees towards the border. The boy must be almost sixteen if his size was anything so go by, he should know better than to wander in the woods. He was dizzy and terrified when I put him down about five feet from the reservation. His eyes were clamped tightly shut and he was trembling. I pointed him in the right direction and moved behind him. 'Walk this way for ten minuets and your home.' I turned and ran out of his sight before he could open his eyes. I watched the boy run without question in the right direction and knew he would be fine. I glanced up at the coming dawn, at least I had passed the night.

I ran home and showered to get rid of the human scent clinging to me and changed my clothes. I picked up my guitar and played the tune I had been humming to the boy in the forest, it was quite a nice tune. I wrote it down and played it over again before my nerves got the better of me. I could hear the rest of my family preparing for the coming day and stayed put until I heard Edward and the others head out to the car. I pulled my bike keys from yesterdays clothes and flitted outside. When Edward saw me slide onto the bike and growled at me. He started towards me but I sent him a wave of contentment that stopped him in his tracks. I knew it wouldn't last long so I revved the engine and was gone as soon as I could be.

I wove my way through the streets towards Bella's house and fought to stay calm. As I neared her house I saw that Charlie's cruiser was still parked at the curb. I slowed by the house but Bella's truck was gone. She had left fifteen minuets ago judging from her scent. I swallowed hard uselessly and revved the bike harder. Could I even face her at school today?

Do you hate me now?! I know you do and for some reason I cant stop giggling!

Reviewing is good for your Karma!
