D/C: I do not own the Twilight Saga
Edward's POV:
"I don't want all those people to come over!" Jasper yelled after I asked when people would start to show up for our birthday party.
"Jasper," Mom said in a stern voice. "Stop yelling."
"No!" He jumped up from the stool he was sitting on at the bar and stomped his foot. "I don't like this!"
"Jasper, listen." Dad attempted. "No more yelling."
"I hate this!" He screamed. Usually Jasper would stop his hissy fit if Mom and Dad were stern with him. I didn't know what to do, so I just squirmed in my seat. Whenever Jasper had a temper tantrum, I always just ignored it, but it was hard. "This is stupid! I hate you!"
"Sorry, Rose, I can't hear you. Jasper's having a fit or something." Emmett mumbled into the phone.
Jasper clenched his fists and his face turned red.
"I hate it here!"
"Jasper, their is no reason to get this upset." Mom tried again.
"I don't want these people to come over! I'll run away or something if they do! I swear I will! I don't want them here!"
"Take a deep breath Jasper." Dad said. Jasper did, but bit his lip. His body started to shake.
"I hate this! I wish I still lived with my real Mom and Dad!"
"Don't say that Jasper!" I finally said. "That's not true!"
"Shut up Edward!" He shouted. He grabbed his plate full of syrup and waffles and threw it on the ground, breaking the plate, before storming upstairs. "I hate everyone here!"
Mom leaned on the bar and rubbed her forehead. Dad sighed.
"This is not the way to get attention Jasper." Dad called calmly up the steps.
I hated it when he threw a fit for attention. It was his new thing now. If I brought home a good grade on a test and Mom and Dad were telling me they were proud of me, he would have a temper tantrum to get their attention off of me. It's weird... we used to look out for each other... now it's like we're fighting against each other...
"It isn't for attention this time!" He yelled back before slamming a door.
"Well, looks like we've got a bit of a rough day ahead of us." Dad murmured.
"I'm sorry." I sighed. Mom smiled at me, and Dad rubbed my back.
"Don't be sorry Edward," Mom said as she knelt down to clean Jasper's mess. "This isn't your fault."
"I'll help you." I offered.
"Thank you bud." She kissed the top of my head.
Jasper was a lot happier now during the party. He stuck close by me and didn't talk much, but you could tell he was having fun.
"Would you boys like a little treat?" Our Granny asked. I couldn't remember if she was Dad's mom or if that was MeMee who was Dad's mom.
We both nodded yes eagerly and she opened her big purse.
It was weird. All these people brought Jasper and me gifts for our birthday and we never even met them before.
I glanced back in the living room where all of our unwrapped presents sat. We got tons of baseball cards and a couple of baseballs. People didn't know what to get us, so we did get some odd things like a coloring book and crayons and Hot Wheels cars. Mom and Dad got us Nerf guns that shot foam bullets, and Emmett got us some Cd's. They were the music that he likes to listen to when he works out though. He has the same Cd's but Mom doesn't let Jasper and I listen to them because they cuss, so he got us the edited versions.
"Here you boys go." Granny smiled and gave us both a fistful of candy out of her purse.
"Thank you!" I said happily. I gently elbowed Jasper's arm. "Are you going to say thank you Jasper?"
"Don't worry about it honey," Granny said. "It's fine if he doesn't want to talk right-"
"Thank you!" Jasper smiled.
"You're welcome honey." She smiled at both of us. "You two are such sweethearts!"
She ruffled my hair, and Jasper actually walked closer to her so she could do the same to him.
"What was Mom like when she was little?" He asked. Okay, so Granny was Mom's mom. Got it.
"Well, when she was little..."
I walked away and left Jasper with Granny. He was comfortable enough with her.
As soon as I walked away, I realized I should have left.
My cousins on my Dad's side walked up to me with wicked smiles.
"Hey Edward." Laurent said with a fake smiled.
"What do you guys what?" I sighed and stuffed the candy in my pockets.
"We just wanna talk to you Edward." Victoria laughed.
"Come on, we just want to get to know you." James whispered. He put his arm around my shoulder. Ugh...
He pointed over to Jasper.
"What's up with him, huh?" He asked. "He seems a little... strange..."
"Why doesn't he like to talk?" Victoria asked.
"Why is he so afraid of everything?" Laurent said with a sly smile. They knew about his Autism...
"Is he stupid or something?" James whispered in my ear. I clenched my fists. "He is isn't he? Well, I guess we'll just have to talk reaalllll sloooooow to him."
They all laughed.
"So do you have to read things to him too?" Laurent teased.
I clenched my teeth.
"Can he read? Or is he to stupid?" Victoria asked.
I felt my face turn red.
"Bet he can't even figure out how to work the television! He can't even talk can he?" James laughed and squeaked my shoulder. "He can't talk, can he? He can't even speak!"
My body started to shake,
I spun around,
and punched James in the face.
