family sticks together

by coli narago

All Human. Bella and Emmett are siblings. Charlie abuses Bella, except for when Emmett is around. Emmett is a senior and Bella is a freshmen. Jasper and Rosalie are siblings, and they are their friends. Both of the Hales are seniors. No Edward or Alice.

13. Chapter 13

A/N: Some people said that last chapter was a little rushed. I am sorry for that. On another note (forgive the retarded pun), I would like to clarify Emmett's guitar. I meant to put this in an author's note way back in chapter twelve, but I seem to have forgotten. Well, he happens to have a red and white fender bullet. Serial No. E 108369. It's not a real expensive guitar, but it's awesome. It's the one I have. I love it to bits.

Jasper's POV

My sister waked me forcefully and loudly. Damn her. I just shoved a pillow in her face and told her to shut up. When I heard she mention the words 'Bella', 'Charlie', and 'rape' in the same sentence, I was the one shutting up. She had my attention. I knew that she was trying to get me out of bed by backing out of the room, but I got dressed and followed anyway.

I walked out of the hall and into the living room to find my three 'siblings' on the couch. Emmett was in the middle, one arm around Rosalie on his right and his other around Isabella on his left. They were watching the news.

I sat on a large, brown leather plush chair to the left of the matching couch. "Morning. I heard three words in that entire sentence, Rosalie, and I didn't like what I heard. Now, does anyone care to elaborate?" Emmett and Rosalie looked a Bella and she nodded, so Emmett began.

"Last night when everybody was asleep, the son of a bitch Charlie broke into Bella's room and" He seemed at a loss of words, trying not press Bella's sanity no doubt. "Invaded her privacy." I don't blame him for choosing his words cautiously; as the sentence progressed Bella sank into the couch and her brother, a mixture between a frown and a grimace forming in the line of her mouth.

I reached over the gap between Isabella and me and placed my hand on her shoulder. She flinched. "Don't worry. We're not going to let anything else happen to you."

"Damn right, jasper." Emmett was furious. Someone had pressed his 'do not touch' button (refer to chapter eight). He looked ready to kill.

A/N: Sorry, I know it's short. Don't worry I'm posting the next chapter right now too. I just thought that that one should be it's own chapter for reasons. You'll see when you hit the 'chapter 13' button (not the big red 'do not touch' button, lol). Don't forget to review!
