Chapter 11: New

April 27, 1938

After my short break, I immediately went in search of Jasper. My head was filled with so many unanswered questions as I reached the barn though, that when I went to push open the door, I bumped right into him.

"Where the hell did you go?! I told you I'd be back quickly!" He told me, frustration and worry clear in his voice.

"I gotta talk to you about something important but not in there." I replied, ignoring his question.

"Ok... Come on then... I know a place," Jasper replied, confused and curious at my request to go somewhere else.

I followed him to the back of the barn and towards the forest. Surprisingly, we didn't go in but we ran at top speed along the edge of the forest for a few minutes until we had reached a small abandoned ranch house. I'd never seen it before, nor did I have any idea that it existed.

"Better?" Jasper asked as we walked inside the house.

I nodded as I looked around. It was really run down... The wooden walls seemed so delicate that it seemed like any wind could come and easily push them down. The roof looked like it was about to collapse...yet surprisingly it was still standing... There was no furniture but, spiders and other animals still made their nests in whichever crevice they could find.

"So...what was so important?" Jasper asked as he leaned against a wall.

I opened my mouth to explain what had happened in the forest but was interrupted by the sound of feet coming closer. Jasper instantly moved in front of me to cover me, but I peeked behind his shoulder to see who was coming.

"Peter?" Jasper asked bewildered. Peter smiled and moved forward to hug his longtime friend.

"What are you doing here?!" Jasper asked, smiling now too. Charlotte stepped in from outside and stared at me with confusion in her eyes. "Charlotte too?!" Jasper added once he saw her.

"Didn't the girl tell you?" Peter asked as he frowned.

"Girl? Oh, Bree?" Jasper asked as he turned to look at me. Everyone's eyes turned to me and I unconsciously backed into the corner of the wall.

"What are you doing here?! Why didn't you tell him?" Charlotte hissed at me angrily.

"Hey! I brought her here! She said she had to tell me something in private." Jasper defended me. He had his arms crossed at his chest so I knew he was getting angry.

"That doesn't matter anymore...you're here now. You can leave now," Peter told me as he frowned at me. I lowered my head, thankful that I couldn't blush as a vampire, and began to make my way towards the door but, Jasper quickly stopped me.

"She's not going anywhere without me."

"Jasper, I'll be fine...you clearly have some business to take care of so...I'll see you later," I mumbled before trying to leave again. He stopped me again though.

"You're not going ANYWHERE without me," he repeated, frowning at me now. I opened my mouth to protest but was cut off by Peter.

"Ok, ok...whatever you say..."

I awkwardly backed away again into a corner. I didn't want to be here... I clearly wasn't welcome... Why didn't Jasper let me go back to the barn? Did he think I would go off again? Or was there something else he wasn't telling me?

"The point of us getting the girl-"

"Bree," Jasper cut in, interrupting Peter.

"Bree-to talk to you was since you know we can't be seen by Maria or she'll kill us...even more so now since I know she mustn't of have been too happy with her losing that many soldiers..."

"Right," Jasper agreed, standing again with his hands across his chest.

"Well...we told her to tell you and ONLY you that we needed to talk to you...which she didn't do..." Peter paused there however, since Jasper didn't say anything he continued.

"The thing is...oh god Jasper you won't believe us!" Peter said, a smile plastered on his face now. Charlotte was even smiling now too.

"Up North...we don't have to fight! Charlotte and I...we've been living in peace! Traveling to different places, seeing new things, tasting new blood...it's amazing Jasper! You have to come with us!" Peter exclaimed.

"No fighting?" Jasper asked in disbelief.

"Yes! Come with us! You don't have to fight anymore or kill another vampire again!" Peter continued telling him. Jasper nodded and smiled. Then he turned his attention to me.

"Bree...come with us too," He offered me as he grabbed my hands in his.

"You want HER to come with us?" Peter asked, surprise clear in his face.

"I'm not leaving without her," Jasper replied as he turned back to face Peter. Again, Jasper stood with his back straight and his hands crossed at his chest. Peter nodded and went to stand by Charlotte who looked furious at the turn of events.

"Will you come?" Jasper asked me.

"I can't Jas-"

"WHY?!" Jasper asked angrily as he cut me off. I jumped from surprise at his sharp tone of voice and watched as he relaxed again.

"I'm sorry Bree it's just...look...Maria wants to kill you...that's what she wanted to talk to me about tonight. I was planning on running away with you to keep you safe but, look at this now...we have our opportunity right here! Bree...I can't STAND the thought of losing you... I love you Bree...so will you PLEASE...come with us?"

I stood motionless at Jasper's speech. The whole world seemed to be spinning around me. So many emotions were filling me up it was crazy... I was terrified, angry, surprised, ecstatic, confused... It felt as if this was all a dream and at any moment I would wake up and I would be back at my Father's farm... I wanted so badly to just disappear... To simply NOT have to deal with all of this right now... I felt myself taking quicker, shorter breaths and then a tingling sensation began to spread from the tips of my fingers to the rest of my body.

"Bree?!" Jasper gasped as he looked me up and down. His eyes seemed to be popping out of their sockets and it wasn't just him. Peter and Charlotte were also staring at me with shocked expressions.

"What?" I asked them as the tingling sensation quickly disappeared. I looked down at myself but saw nothing unusual.

"You-you..." Peter stammered as he looked at me with wide eyes.

"Bree...please come," Jasper told me as he stepped in front of my view of Peter. Jasper looked right into my eyes and held my hands tight as if I would disappear at any moment.

"Ok...I'll go with you..." I mumbled.
