Disclaimer : I do not own Twilight, Stephanie Meyer does.

Previously: I flung myself onto my bed, face down, and buried my face into my pillow, trying not to scream or cry or do anything stupid.

Why the hell did I even think I could mean anything to Jasper, I mean, he had Alice, right? That little… That little… UGH!?

And now my chest was hurting…

It wasn't fair… It just wasn't fair!

BPOV

I had been in my room barely a minute before there was a knock on the door. Freakin' vampires! Why wouldn't they just leave me alone and get the hell out of my house?! Oh, that's right – because if Jasper got too far away from me I'd probably die!

"What do you want?" I mumbled into the pillow, not really caring if whoever it was heard me or not.

There was silence. It felt like the whole house had gone completely still. Brilliant, was I imagining things now?

I reluctantly heaved myself of my bed and went to the door, pressing my forehead against the cool wood. "What do you want?" I asked again, feeling and sounding exhausted.

Once again there was no answer. I felt infuriated – absolutely raging - they thought they could mess with me in this childish way?! Well, I was gonna tell them exactly what I thought about that!

I flung the door open and was about to storm through but instead found myself face-planting a rock-hard chest. I yelped and immediately tried to jump backwards into my room again. Being the klutz that I am, I tripped on the air and began to fall but I didn't get very far anyway because a pair of hands shot out to grab me and halt my descent.

"Jasper?" I spluttered. What the hell was he doing in my bedroom? I thought I was nothing but a human to him… Did he think he hadn't hurt me enough…?

He blinked at me but didn't say anything and didn't let me go. His eyes were dark but they were slowly fading to gold.

I heard Emmett suddenly yelling Jasper's name. I tried to look around his body but he still wouldn't let go of my arms. His eyes were suddenly cooling to black again.

"What… What's happened?" I asked Jasper hesitantly, unsure if I was going to get an answer.

Before he could reply – even though he probably wasn't going to – he pushed me to the side. Not harshly, but urgently. He probably didn't realise his own strength because I went straight into the wall. It didn't hurt too badly and I was suddenly glad he had because Emmett came barrelling into the room, knocking Jasper backwards.

He fell on my bed and the force made it crack and break clean in half. I held my hand over my mouth so I didn't make a sound, because Emmett looked pissed.

Jasper had barely hit the ground before he was up and before I could even blink he was back in front of Emmett and they started fighting, right there in my bedroom, just a few feet away from me. It was a mass of growling and snarling and the snapping of teeth.

I gave an uncontrollable whimper, and Jasper glanced at me, chucking Emmett with apparent ease across the room – the muscular vampire crashed into my wardrobe and made a massive crater of cracked and splintered wood - before he darted to me and brought me to the door of the bedroom. Esme was there, and she took me from Jasper in a flash. He gave her a growl – warning her, I think – and she took me downstairs at such a speed that I had to bury my head into her shoulder.

Even downstairs I could hear the sounds of breaking and smashing coming from upstairs. I was more concerned for my life than the state of my room, and Esme must have deemed it unsafe to keep me near the house, let alone in it, and she carried me straight through the living room to the outside and a short way into the woods. We could still see the house, and through my bedroom window I could occasionally see either Emmett or Jasper fly past.

Shocked, I just continued to stare at what I could see while Esme gently put me down and began to tell me how terribly sorry she was for the mess that her family had made of my house.

She should be more worried about the mess her family had made of my life!

And where was Rosalie? Why was Emmett so angry? All of this business with vampires was just making my head hurt!

"Esme, what is going on!?" I asked her desperately.

She started to apologise again, but I cut her off, starting to lose my cool, "No! No more apologies! Why are they fighting?!"

Esme cast her gaze to the house once again before replying, her voice was shaking slightly, "After you ran upstairs… Jasper seemed to be in pain and he tried to go after you but Rose… She grabbed his shoulder and told him-" she stopped herself from saying something. I felt a spark of anger when I heard about Rosalie touching Jasper but tried to keep it to myself; I didn't want Esme turning against me too.

"What did she tell him?" I asked, trying to keep my voice calm.

"She told him to leave you alone…" she said quietly, guiltily. "That…" She didn't seem to be able to say the next part and instead said, "Jasper's… not too fond of people touching him at the best of times…"

"Did he hurt her?" I asked, shock and realisation dawning on me.

Esme stared at the ground, tugging on her hands once again. She nodded once, "Emmett made sure she was okay before he…" She glanced at me and I was alarmed to see she looked close to tears. Could vampires cry? I really hated seeing other people upset so impulsively I put my arms around Esme and hugged her tightly. Her skin was hard and unyielding but she seemed to feel it and appreciate the effort, hugging me back with varying degrees of firmness as though she didn't know how much strength to use.

"I'm sorry dear, I truly am." She whispered to me. "I wish I could just wave a magical wand and your life would go back to normal."

I just sighed and screwed my eyes tightly shut. I wished that I could wish for that, but if my life was normal again, there would be no Jasper and how could I live without him, even if there was no pain with us being apart? I didn't even want to think about it.

A/N: So I was supposed to go into school today to do an exam but I woke up and SNOW WAS EVERYWHERE! It hasn't snowed where I live in years so obviously I was overjoyed (and I got to miss my exam hehe) but after getting a snowball to the eye I decided to just write instead :3 Hope you enjoyed the chapter, sorry it was so short .
