Pen Name: Graceless Mary

Pairing/Character(s): Jasper

Rating: T


Being here was slowly destroying me. I couldn't bear the sadness emanating from our family, the hole that Edward's absence left. The yearning that Alice felt for Bella's company; her grief at seeing her spiritually and emotionally dead in the near and distant future.

I thought that Bella was good for us all; especially with how happy she made my brother. But the cool emotions that he displayed before she crashed into his life were far preferable to the anguish she left behind.

Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all? I don't agree.
