Back!!! This one is Jasper's...who would have thought that I could write so much! But, I thought y'all deserved back story for him! Enjoy!


Jasper POV

I was sitting on the recliner in the living room watching sports with my dad. Sure, I didn't like sports all that much, but I did whatever he wanted to do. Better than being upstairs doing nothing. My dad didn't mind that I wasn't the all-star football player like Jake was. He was happy that I was social at all. I guess I am a child of my circumstance. I do not remember much of anything before I was adopted and yet I remember so much. They come in flashbacks. I remember being beaten, torn into like I was a common mule. I still had the scars, all over my body. I remember bodies, lashing out at me. And voices, raised and shrill, telling me I was a bad boy. The faces, however, are never present. I can never remember the faces. That's what bothered me the most. I remember being thrown into a bag and put into a car. Maybe in the trunk, it was very dark. The car stopped and I was taken out. I was sat down and then the car pealed out. After ten minutes, I tentatively got out of the bag. I was in this strange place. There was nobody to be seen anywhere. I was in a house. I just got into a corner and hid. I didn't know what else to do. I was there for who knows how long when I saw flashlights. I was rescued. I overheard them say that a young girl called and let them know where I was. I owed everything to her and yet, I wondered if she knew anything. To this day I still want to fight her.

The Swan's gave me a normal life. Charlie took me in and became a father to me. Bella was very sweet and I am glad she is my sister. I couldn't ask for a better one. And I found a great friend in Jacob Black. He never asked questions and was content to just do nothing.

The Black's pulled in and both my dad and I got up to let them in. Jake and I gave each other a nod and I reached over and placed a hand on Billy.

"Good to see you Billy."

"You too, Jasper."

Charlie shook Jacob's hand and we waited for Bella to come down. Finally I heard her tell Alice that she had to go and she came down the stairs. I could see the look in Jacob's eyes when he saw her. They lit up like it was Christmas. Jake had never told me that he adored my sister, but he didn't need to. I knew. I could feel the love he had for her. It felt like it was suffocating me, but I let it be.

"Bella! Good to see you!" Billy told her when she got to us.

"Hey Billy," she said, leaning down to hug him.

"Hey Bells," Jacob told her. He pulled her into a crushing hug. He better be careful if he wanted to keep his affection for her a secret. Then again, maybe he didn't. I didn't ask. I felt it wasn't my place unless he came to me with it.

"Hey Jake. Well, let's eat!"

With that, we followed Bella into the kitchen and sat down to eat. We were all starving and digging in like crazy. Mainly Charlie, Billy and Jake. I tried not to act so animalistic, but my hunger got the best of me.

"Oh, Bells, I'm sorry. Here. Let me get you some food," I heard Jacob say as he grabbed Bella's plate and helped her. He did have it bad.

"Thanks Jake."

He smiled at her and she smiled back. I smiled at the two of them. Maybe there was something there on both ends.

Finally we were done and we all headed into the living room.

"Charlie! Let's head back up to my place for the game. Your television is so small and we just got the big screen in. Jake, you stay here with Jasper and Bella and hang out for a bit. Have fun!"

Charlie could never say no to Billy. Probably a lot like I never said no to Jake. Soon they were gone and I knew what I wanted to do. Beat Jacob at Halo 3.

"Jake, Halo 3?" I asked him, knowing full well what his answer would be.

"Of course! Bells, you going to join us?"

I take that back. I only knew what half his answer would be. I never expected him to ask Bella, but it made sense. She played with us before and he was crazy about her. It was weird how I was not weirded out about it. I mean, she was my sister and he was my best friend, but who better to trust?

"Sure. I play winner!" she answered. She knew how to play a lot of games. Having Emmett for a best friend would do that. Not to mention I was her brother.

Jake pulled her along behind us. And in some miracle, she didn't fall.

We played for a while and then I got bored. They looked bored too. It was movie time. I pulled out my Star Wars dvds. We all loved Star Wars. Bella was also into Star Trek, which I didn't see the big deal about. But whatever. I put in The Phantom Menace and we started to watch.

Half way in, Charlie got home and Jake decided it was time to go. So, we shook hands and of course, he pulled Bella into another huge hug. She left after that, heading to the bathroom. Probably to take a shower.

Jake left too, after saying goodnight to Charlie. I continued watching the movie. Then, I heard Jake come back inside. So, I headed downstairs.

"What's up?"

"Stupid car won't start. Hey Charlie?"

"Yeah Jake?" my dad answered from his place on the couch.

"Is it okay if I just stay her tonight? I'll get one of the guys to bring me back with my tools after practice tomorrow."

"Of course, Jake."

Jake flashed me a grin and we headed back upstairs. We heard Bella get out of the shower and continued watching the movie.

"Hey, I thought you were going home."

I looked up and the voice belonged to Bella. She was in her pajamas.

"Jeeze, Bells, thanks. Didn't know you didn't want me here," Jake answered with a smile on.

"Shut up, Jake," she said back. Good comeback sis.

"Bella, Jake's car isn't working. Dad is letting him stay with us for the night," I told her, not wanting her to say something else stupid.

"Yeah, I will get Embry or Quil to take me to get my place and get my tools tomorrow after practice and then drop me back here so I can fix it," he told her.

"So, boys slumber party?"

Jake threw a pillow at her and she went back to her room, laughing the whole way.

"So, how long have you liked my sister?"

"Dude, what are you talking about."

I raised my eyebrows at him. Was he serious?

"Jake, it's me."

"Fine. Freshman year."

I nodded my head at him and then he got up to take a shower. He already had clothes here because he had stayed plenty of time.

I didn't get the big deal about girls. I mean, sure, they were good to look at. But, none of them had that something special. At least not the girls that I knew at Forks. I had some friends that were girls. Claire was in the show with me, and she was super nice. She was also taken. Jessica volunteered to help with her community service she needed for National Honor Society, but she wasn't my type. Alice did our costumes and she was both pretty and sweet. She was also hyper. I didn't really know her though. At least not outside of her being my sister's friend.

I turned the television off and headed to sleep. I heard Jake come in and pull out the mattress under my bed. It was already made up, so he got in and laid down.

I hadn't been asleep for more than an hour when I heard a scream. I knew it was Bella and I almost jumped up to see if she was okay when Jake ran out of the room. I let him go to her. She needed someone other than me. I couldn't be the strong arms to hold her when she was sad. She needed a boyfriend and I really hoped it could be Jacob. I did worry a little about losing my best friend, but my sister's happiness was more important than mine.

After an hour of waiting for him to come back, I gave up. I didn't know what he was doing, but I would wait until the morning to ask him what happened. Or, maybe I would just act like I knew nothing. I soon feel asleep after that. A pixie like girl haunting my dreams.
