Satus Novus- chapter 13

Dont own TwilightRECAP:

JPOV

If I was going to the dance I would need to hunt most of the night and also tomorrow a few hours before the dance.

BPOV

Packing up I rushed to my next class which was over in a blur, and proceeded to call Angela so we could go dress shopping.

BPOV

I woke up to the blaring of my alarm this morning and out of instinct smacked down hard on it. I was not sure how many times it had gone off yet, but I knew I needed to take a shower soon. Sighing, I got out of bed and reminder myself that it was Friday. With that as an incentive I quickly made my way about the house, showering and getting dressing in about 20 minutes.

I took my hair and stuck it up in a ponytail, not having the nerve to blow-dry it. I went down the stairs with a slight skip in my step and surprised myself, since I did not trip or fall once. I poured myself a bowl of Cheerios, and added milk getting through with it quickly. Not really taking notice of the clock, I decided to head to school after I finished rinsing dishes.

I grabbed my keys on the way out along with my bag. I left the prom dress I bought at home. It was a deep shade of navy blue reaching about mid-thigh. With a small V-neck and a fitted waist, that had a strip of white under my bust-line, I automatically knew it was the one. (Don't have a picture, since I described the one I bought myself this year. Sorry.) Taking my first step outside, I felt the wind blow into my somewhat open jacket, and shivered.

Before dashing into the cab of my car, I saw Charlie had put on snow treads. I would have to thanks him for that when he got home before I left for the dance. I trucked through town going no more than 35 mph. I knew it was slow, but gosh people, you don't have to stare. I pulled into the parking lot just in time.

As I got out and locked the door, I saw people carrying in prom decorations into the gym. I'm guessing that since it was such a small time, everyone can fit into it. I know that in Phoenix, we always rented a room big enough for everyone. I knew that tonight would actually talk to people out of school, and I was looking forward to it.

I made my few to class, and let myself be drawn into all the talk about tonight. I was amazed when my first two periods flew by and I found myself, robotically, walking to History. I had successfully memorized the school in least then three days, especially with all the help I got on the first day.

I walked into the door and quickly made my way to the back. I knew like most of my classes, the teacher would not care if people would talk. He generally put up PowerPoints, so if you wanted to you should take notes; if not, your fault. I quickly became used to this habit and took out my spiral, when I saw notes had already started. I could barely keep up, and to make it even worse I could not read any of my handwriting at all. A sigh of frustration washes over me. I knew I needed to take this class, it was just going to be hard than I thought to pass.

As the lesson came to an end, I had gone through 3 pages front and back and I knew I would be reading the text-book for this section. Randomly, a spiral flopped on my desk and I jumped a little in my seat. I looked to my side when it had come from and saw Jasper staring at me. I had not talked to him much over the past few days, and then time we did it felt somewhat awkward. The longer I looked at him the more I felt drawn in.

How could I have not noticed his smell before? It was intoxicating; a type of honey and wood-like fragrance. His blond curls once again fell into his copper eyes, and I felt drawn in just like I had my first to days. I was physically unable to stop myself as my body shifted to face him. Jasper kept contact with my eyes the whole time as I did this. He also seemed to have stop breathing.

JPOV

I laid the notebook on her desk, as I felt the frustration build within her. I saw her jump slightly which amused me. I felt her unsure and she turn her head to face me. Her hazel eyes meet mine, and held me in place. Her ponytail gave me a clear view into them; since usually she would have shied away hid herself behind it. Not that I minded much, since her hair always smelled like strawberries.

I was not sure how the actually tasted. It had been years since I ate human food and there was no reason to risk trying now. Still holding my gaze, she shifted towards me and even with the subtle movement; I had to hold my breath. Bella's sent caught me off-guard since it has been a while, other than the small talk in AP Biology. Not sure if it was a good time to break the tension I choose to anyway.

"I figured you could use some legible notes. It looked like you had to rush a little bit."

She flushed and I continued to hold my breath.

"That's very kind of you. I'm not sure how you keep up with him. The notes are over, before I can even read them."

Thank goodness for vampire speed. Was all I could think to myself.

"Yeah, it used to be like that for me, but after getting used to his method, I'm doing ok."

She smiled at me and looked down at my perfect handwriting. I knew there was no way possible to have it look like that for any human, but hope she would not take major notice. I felt confusion coming off of her at first, which then switched to focusing on copying so she would have something to study with.

BPOV

There was no way he could write so fast and so neat. It's just not humanly possible. Sighing in frustration I started to concentrate on my work. After I was done with the first page, I felt someone looking at me. Sure enough when I looked up I caught Jasper's eye, who just smirked, showing his dimples, and then turn to look out the window. I soon realized it was a game, because he would look back all too soon since I was still staring at him.

Two minutes before the bell rang I returned him his notes as the teacher gave an announcement.

"Make sure to complete your essay for the war of your choice for this chapter. Due Monday. No exceptions or make-ups!"

Sighing I tucked my spiral into my bag and headed out the door to the cafeteria. I quickly got myself a slice of pepperoni pizza with sides of mashed potatoes, and some fruit. There was NO way you could get me to drink the school milk. I ate quickly knowing I needed to get to the library to check out my book. I said goodbye to Angela and let her know Mike would pick her and Ben up around 6:30 after me. She smiled and nodded.

I headed out quickly to the library, since today seemed to have the wind-chill working on the already low temperature. Unzipping my jacket as I was walked in I headed toward the history section, to find Jasper sitting in between the aisle a book in his hands. There was no way he should have heard me from the other side of the room, but he looked up and met my eyes.

O.K. Bella just go pick up a book and get out of there. You do not want to do anything stupid now. I said to myself only hoping my body would follow orders for once. There was nothing I could do when I tripped on the air though. I sighed, and prepared for the fall. I'm not sure how, but from across the room, Jasper was able to get up from his position and get to be catching me around the waist with a firm hold, but gentle grip.

He pulled me up slowly, and kept his arm around me even though I was fully up-right now. I felt my pulse increase and knew that if anyone would look, they could see the blush on my face. I felt him stiffen, and then back away slowly. I was loosing my grip since my legs felt like pudding, and tried grabbing onto a shelf about my height, but he leaned back into me.

With easy he swung me, backpack still on, and put another arm under my knees, as it I weighted no more than an average object. He set me down slowly at one of the study tables, and I sank into the chair, still unsure if I could balance myself alone.

I don't know why this was happening to me. I knew that I felt this way the first day I meet him. I of course shrugged it off as just a crush, but after talking to him and his family a little more, I felt drawn to him. I did not actually know who he was as a person, or what he enjoyed doing during his free time, but I don't think your mind usually calculates that in when you feel this way.

He was always so delicate with me as if I would break. He always moved slowly, and it was as if he was in tune with every feeling that was passing through my body.

"You O.K.?"

All I could do was nod, and look up to meet his eyes. Not sure why but physically I moved closer to him, and it looks like he was doing the same. We where now almost face to face and I could see clearly into his copper eyes, which seemed to have flecks of black. I could smell his breath with was very close to the way he smelled, but some how better.

The bell rang just then signaling the need to get to class. I sighed and got up still slightly unstable, but he caught me. I smiled, and headed over to the books to quickly pick one not really caring at the moment. This was awkward enough. After I checked it out we walked side by side to Biology. Walking into the room was not what I had wanted, since all the Cullens where already sitting at the table and watching us as we took our seats next to one another.

Sorry for not putting in the Dance. I really wanted to, but when i sat down today to write I kinda went off on a branch because i felt the JxB was a littl gone. Anyway, this chapter is over 2,000 words look since i was unable to update for about a week i think now. Really sorry about that. Possibly next chapter finishing up school and talking with Renee. Then the chapter after the actual dance. Once again sorry it took forever to update, but i hope you enjoy.

As always let me know you like it with a review. They make me happy :)
