Jace POV

It didn't take us long to reach the house, thanks to our speed, but we did take our time entering it. As we slowly entered through the back door from the kitchen, I could feel the presence of my parents and Alice, in the living room.

I looked over to my sister and she looked terrified. "Do you think they already know what I did?"

"Yes, we do. Renesme Carlie Cullen and Jace Anthony Cullen, both of you in the living room now!" My father's thunderous voice carried throughout the quarters. Nessie beside me shivered with fear.

I walked into the living room with Ness cautiously and took in our surroundings. My mother sat on the couch next to my aunt Alice while they held each other's hands, my father paced around the room like a mad man, puling at his hair in frustration.

"Please sit children." Mom gestured kindly to the couches across from her and Alice.

I accepted but Ness was frozen with fear at my father's appearance. His brow was creased, his mouth was set in a small line, and his eyes were noticeably full of fury.

"I'm sorry." Nessie admitted fault. She bowed her head in disappointment, plumped down on the couch and sunk into the cushions next to me.

"Save your apologies," my father told her, "I know why you did what you did, but it still doesn't erase the fact that you changed that girl's memories."

Ness rose up from the couch to face my father eye to eye, she's a lot braver than I was. 'I did it to help the family and Jace. It was the only thing I could do.'

"I already told you I understand why you did, but it's still unforgivable Nessie. You could have really hurt the girl." He glimpsed down at Ness and he let out a breath he was holding. My father then ran his fingers threw his hair in irritation. It was inevitable; he knew his rage was decreasing with every glance he threw at my sister.

'I know father but I truly am sorry.' She pouted her lip and made her eyes water with venom. My father tried to resist her gaze but in moments time it was over. The battle between my father and sister was done; Nessie won.

"I know you are sweetie, come here." Defeated, he opened up his arms to Ness and she ran straight to them, all worries and wrong doings soon forgotten.

This was not fair.

"So that's it? You're just going to forgive her?" I spat at my father. Mother, Alice and even Nessie looked at me as if they forgot I was even there, their only concern and focus was with the quarrel between my father and Nessie. With puzzlement written all over their faces they looked up at me. Except my father, he knew why I was acting this way.

"No punch attempts or threats?" I seethed. "That's not fair at all! What I did put no human in danger, yet my sister could've left someone brain dead and she receives no scolding, or punishment?"

"Really Jace you are overacting and being childish." He ridiculed me.

"Childish? Childish! You think I'm being childish? You're the one who is being childish and unreasonable, picking favorites between your own kids. You treat me like shit while you praise your daughter for doing bad deeds and budding into business that doesn't evolve her."

"Jace Anthony that is enough you has spoken your peace." My mother spoke to try and sooth my anger. She rose slowly and walked across the room towards my father. "Edward our son is right it isn't fair what you do with our children and you should know better. Nothing is going to be solved if we keep this fighting up. Both of you has to let this go now and so we all can move past this together, as a family should." My mother stood between my father and I, ready to stop yet again another fight between us. Will my father and me ever see eye to eye? I truly doubt it.

But my mother's words worked like a charm on my father. I could tell he was starting to calm himself down; his breaths seemed deeper and slower, his body stance more loose and relaxed, and his facial expression not so rigid and tight. He gazed at her with loving eyes; sure enough she was sending him soothing thoughts.

"Edward, Bella's right this isn't getting us anywhere. And it's only making it slower for me to see what is next to come. And also we need a new plan for our new situation." Alice spoke breaking the silence of the room.

"Alice is right, we need a plan." My mother agreed.

"We don't need a plan Alice. Nessie took care of her; Jennifer doesn't remember anything about me. It's over." I concluded reluctantly.

"Jace we don't know yet if Ness erased her entire memory of the incident or just sections of it. We won't know for sure until we do something." My mother informed me, and everyone agreed with her.

"But I took care of her she doesn't remember anything. Don't you trust me?" Nessie tried to make them believe her but Alice and my father thought against it.

"No, it's too dangerous to go without knowing for sure." Ness tried to gain our father's attention back but he was already lost in making a plan. Within seconds my father thought of one. "Here's what we will do. Alice and Bella will go to see this Jennifer girl after school today to go talk to her and drop Jace's name. Then I will be near enough by to hear her thoughts and see if she remembers anything."

"Wow I think that's the best plan you have ever came up with since you proposed to Bella." Alice spoke amazed. My mother embarrassed, smiled sheepishly and hid her eyes with her hair, causing my father to frown. He swiftly moved towards her and brought his hand up to remove the hair out of her face, to show her beauty.

"I do loath it when you conceal your face from the world and from me." He lifted his had to my mother's cheek and softly caressed it, making her move into his touch. My father then dropped his face to her lips and kissed her tenderly. It seemed as if I was imposing on there private moment so I had to look a way.

They were in their own little world when my parents acted like this. Simply loving each other and its moments like these that I truly feel alone in this ever-changing world.

"Love birds I know you haven't been together long, only like eighty years or so, but bare with me here." Alice interrupted, and ever so slightly broke through the barrier of my mother and father's world. "We've got less than twenty minutes of school left and we have to get to Forks High before Jennifer leaves to go to her home. Unless you want to do it at her house, but I think she might find it weird that we came there, since you know we aren't really on friendly terms with her for the moment."

When we arrived at Forks High didn't look like the same school I've been going to for the past month. The last bell to leave school did not ring yet so the school grounds seemed deserted and older, it did not look as though it held life inside its walls.

'The school does look creepy brother with no humans around, but pull up your socks and be a man!' Ness spoke through our mind link, and started walking away from me and everyone else.

"Hey where are you going?" I shouted at her. Nessie stopped in her tracks and turned to face everyone. "I thought you were staying to see what happens." My mother and Alice turned their heads to look and see whom I was talking to but once they noticed Ness standing far off away they didn't ask any questions.

'I'm going to go see my husband. Do you mind?' She sounded annoyed that I questioned her motives. But how was I to know she was in such a bitchy mood, and this made me angry.

I wanted to snap back and tell her that I did mind; that it was her fault we were doing this whole plan in the first place; and that the least she could do was stay and be with me. But I held my tongue. I calmed myself down rather quickly thinking of the harm it would cause between our whole family and us. We've had enough fights for one day, maybe tomorrow I'll give her a piece of my mind, but now was not the time for it.

'No do what you like. I'll tell you what happens when we get home.'

'See you then.' Nessie turned and walked off, her presence disappearing from my mind. Ness shut me out of the link no doubt.

As if nothing had occurred between Ness and myself Alice spoke up. Sometimesmy aunt Alice was good to have around. "Okay the bell will ring in two point five minutes so I suggest Bella and I start heading over to Jennifer's locker now so we don't miss her." Alice spoke matter-of-factly and looked at my father for approval.

He seemed to like what he heard and nodded. "All right you two head off, Jace and I will head over there soon so I can read her thoughts." Alice didn't hesitate a second. In a blink of an eye she towed my mother by the wrist and they were on their way to go find Jennifer. I could hear my mother's loud complaints about Alice always yanking on her arms; Alice didn't seem to care and kept hold.

"So what do we do now?" I asked curious, about how this will work.

"Now we wait."

It didn't take very long for Alice to find Jennifer's locker, she had been making me stay clear away from it for the past few weeks. Once we heard Alice's call my father and I started to head over towards where my mother and Alice stood.

"Hi, Alice." I heard Jennifer's voice as clearly as if she was standing next to me. "Hi uh, I'm sorry do I know you? Or should I know you?" she asked my mother confused.

"Oh right. I believe we haven't met yet." My mother smiled sweetly and offered her hand. "I'm Isabella Cullen, Jace's older sister."

Jennifer took my mother's hand, smiling back and surprisingly didn't pull her hand away from my mother's ice-cold touch.

"It's nice to meet you Isabella. Jace is in two of my classes; he's a really nice guy. Do you mind if we go out to the parking lot? I have to be home to start on a project for chemistry."

"Oh please call me Bella Jennifer, it's what everyone calls me."

"And we don't mind." Alice reassured her.

"Alright." Jen nodded.

Jennifer didn't seem at all afraid by Alice and my mother's presence as they walked down the halls out towards her truck. It seemed like I was forgotten form her mind.

"So do you know my brother well Jen?" my mother asked.

"Not really, but it'd be nice to know him a little bit more. We have only two classes together and he sits all the way on the other side of the classroom in chemistry. He doesn't talk much." I saw her smile at my mother apologetically like she was sorry for not being friends with me.

My mother understood Jennifer's expression perfectly. "It's fine Jennifer, my little brother takes his time to meet new friends. He's not like his twin sister at all she's a lot social with people." Bella let out a little laugh, joking. "I wouldn't worry if he never speaks to you, it's not personal that's just him."

"Okay, well that might not bother me but a lot of girls have been wanting to jump his bones for a while now, and he doesn't seem interested in any of them. Actually come to think of it he purposely avoids them, but talks to all the guys in our school fine." Jennifer thought to herself for a moment and her eyes grew wide. She looked around to see if there was any person close enough to hear her, and whispered silently to my mother and Alice. "Don't take this personal with me asking this but is your little brother maybe, uh gay?"

Alice burst into a fight of laughter, and my mother soon joined her. "No, no, no. Far from it Jennifer, my brother likes the ladies, just not every Forks babe here." Alice reassured her. "Jace is very selective in who he associates with, usually he doesn't even bother to give a quick look a girls way, not even to help them out."

"Yes, I believe that one. I remember this girl in chemistry tried to get her attention she tripped right over his bag I believe and he didn't even ask if she was okay. Well that's what I heard anyways."

"Well that's my brother the oblivious to the world jerk." Alice stated.

"He can't be that bad, he did help me out one time in gym class."

"Did he? I don't remember hearing about this." Alice faked shock. "Tell us what and when did this happened?"

"It was about a month ago, we were in gym block and I was caring too much in my arms." Jennifer stopped speaking; from afar it looked like her eyes gone out of focus. "I would have stumbled if it weren't for Jace being beside and catching me." Jennifer spoke as if she was reading off of a cue card. It seemed as though my sister's fake memory had worked but after a few moments she frowned; she closed her eyes shut and was silent, not speaking another word.

"Is something the matter Jennifer?" Alice asked concerned, looking at Bella for help.

"No, I'm good. I've been getting these headaches for the past few days and I have no idea why." Jennifer rubbed her head as if it'd make the pain go away, it didn't seem to be working.

"Maybe you need to lie down." My mother asked.

"No, lying down won't help me, believe me I have tried. I've just got to block out my thoughts and I'll be fine soon enough."

"Thoughts about what?" Alice asked curiously.

"I don't remember. I wish I did know so these stupid headaches would just stop, they drive me insane."

"Have you tried taking some Advil?" Alice tried.

"Look Alice, Bella I've done all I can with this thing, it's just something I deal with now. It'll be gone soon. Look I've got to go home and get started on this chemistry project. Oh and speaking of which Jace is my partner, since he was away today and I was late getting to class I was stuck with him." Jennifer rambled on, slowly catching on to what she actually said. "Oh no I didn't mean it like that, I am excited about it it's just-"

"It's fine, we get what you're trying to say. Quit digging yourself a bigger whole." My mother laughed lightly.

Jennifer smiled, at them both but then looked down at her phone and seemed terrified. "I'm sorry you two I've got to get going home. I'm late and my truck doesn't go very fast these days." Jennifer opened her rusted down door. "Well actually it doesn't go fast any day." Jennifer's door shut and she drove off. She waved to my mother and Alice in the distance as she took the corner onto the road.

Alice and my mother walked to my father and me at a snail's pace, not the usual Alice hyper speed. But I'm they did it just to annoy my father.

"Could you hurry it up a bit you two, I'm not getting any younger here."

"Well Eddie you're not getting any older either." Alice fired back.

"Edward you don't suspect anything do you?" My mother asked.

"No, that girl doesn't remember a thing, our family's secrete is safe for the moment."

"'That girl' father has a name, it's Jennifer Mathews I suggest you learn It." I stomped off towards my father's car, I could hear his protest for me to stop him knowing what I was about to do next but I didn't listen. In my anger I punched a noticeably sized dent in the driver's side door, the side window now denting inward almost cracking. I could hear my father yells for me to come back, his rage visible. He loved his car; he has had it almost as long as him and mom have been together. But right now I'm just fed up with him. I don't care about punishment I will receive, I just need to get out my anger.

I kept walking away from my family into the woods, I was still on school grounds and anyone could have seen me but then I didn't seem to care. I took the first tree to come in my path freed it from its roots and tossed it fifty feet in the air like it was a plastic ball.

I don't know why I'm feeling this sudden rage but I've been feeling this way for a while now and I must to get it out. I need my space from my family and a good run will clear my head.

Hope you gals liked it... I'll try to get the next chapter in sooner next time :)
