Hey! I am SO sorry for the delay but I have been extremely busy and my best friend had a surgery on her foot and hand and I have to help her, also the school is pounding us with work. So, yeah, sorry guys, have fun reading this chapter!

Carlisle was quiet while he stitched my head. I oddly didn't feel the pain, even though he hadn't numbed me, I felt nothing. Jasper was in the other room explaining what happened, to Esme, Bella, Edward and Emmet. Something about our relationship changed. The minute I realized Jasper was sound and safe, I had felt it building up. When I didn't know if he was alive, I felt dead, cold, and empty. These feelings have been absent….until today.

"Mind telling me what happened today?" Carlisle's soothing voice piped up.

"They came out of nowhere" images of their terrifying faces appeared before my eyelids

"The male" I continued "was ignorant, he threatened to kill me. Jasper was furious and when the man attacked he rushed to protect me. He pushed me out of the way and this" I pointed to my head "happened"

"I see" said Carlisle, engrossed in his work but still listening to me "But just so you know, he blames himself for your injury."

My heart clenched "I know," I whispered "I don't want him to, I-" I broke down. There's so much I can take in one day. Memories, feelings, fears, pain consumed me.

Carlisle just placed a hand on my shoulder "It will be alright, Alice."

Suddenly, a pair of cold, familiar arms wrapped around me…Jasper. My body instantly relaxed and I let myself lean on him.

"Don't cry, please." He cupped my face with his hands and wiped away my tears "It's okay"

I nodded trying to calm myself down "God Jasper, If anything had happened to you, I- I- I-"

"Don't!" He interrupted me, "Where is my happy Alice? Stop this nonsense right now!"

My eyes widened at his tone. It was a tone, he never used with me before. It was kind of….seductive. I kicked myself for thinking like that, at times like this.

"Let's go downstairs, come on, Esme is worrying for you." He took a hold of my hand and we made our way to the living room where everyone was.

"Oh, dear, are you alright!" Esme exclaimed and gave me a tight, hug.

"I'm okay, Ms. Cullen, you don't have to stress yourself out for me" I said while I hugged her back.

"Esme will never stop worrying!" Bella said, butting in.

I smiled at appreciatively at Esme for her care and compassion.

"Thanks everyone, but I think I should get going." I looked down in embarrassment, I hated having to leave from this house, I felt like I was insulting Jasper and his family, though of course he thought otherwise.

Jasper began to walk out of the house with me on his heels. Emmet's shouts echoed through the house making me smile "Bye, midget!"

I laughed quietly and got in the car. The drive home was….awkward? I felt like Jasper was hiding something, and he wasn't acting like himself either.

"Jasper" I could barely hear my voice, but I knew he could hear me loud and clear "Is something…wrong?"

"No." he said quickly, and that was his mistake. Jasper always liked to take a few seconds to think about the question before he answered even if it was a simple question. Something was definitely up.

"Alright….stop the car," I commanded and he instantly did "What's going on and don't you dare say nothing."

He sharply got out of the car slamming the door behind him, causing the window to slightly crack, I winced. I didn't notice but we have reached my house, Jasper walked in the forest that was just by my house. I sighed and quietly followed only to find him standing there like a statue.

"I'm leaving" his voice was cold and it lacked of emotion. God no, please.

"W-what?" I gasped my heart began to race "You're l-leaving? Why? W-where are you going?"

"I have to make sure no other vampires are around Forks." He wouldn't even look at me, why is he doing this?

"Why- why does it matter? Jasper you could get hurt." My voice trembled, just the mere thought of him hurt…it killed me.

"You don't understand. I can't have you living in danger," his eyes softened only for a moment…and then the moment is gone.

"I do understand! That's why I don't want you to go! Can you imagine the danger you are putting yourself in?" tears pooled in my eyes and began to pour down my cheeks.

He was in front of me with two quick strides "Don't shed tears for me. I am not worth them."

A sob escaped my throat "You're right….you are worth so much more."

I looked up and saw Jasper staring at me; he outstretched his left hand thrusting his fingers through the side of my hair. I stood there frozen, with the sudden love pouring out of my heart for this light-haired vampire. His large cold palm cupped my warm cheek. My heart thumped around madly. Jasper's beautiful, inhuman, eyes fall shut and he gripped my neck, bringing me closer. Our lips fiercely met, molding with one another. His soft experienced lips stroked mine in the most delicious way; he moved his hands to my waist crushing me to his chest. My own arms wrapped around his neck, my fingers grasped his blonde hair. I love him, so much.

Then suddenly, he was gone. All of it was gone. His arms, his lips, his scent, Jasper was gone. No, no, no!

"Jasper!" my throat felt unusual dry "Jas-"a heartbreaking sob slipped from my lips.

"No, no, no, no." I shook my head. This can't be happening, why? God, why! I began to gasp repetitively, unable to catch my breath. My legs gave away, and I fell on the mud.

I moaned in pain, horrible pain, pain that I already loathed. I covered my face with my hands and sobbed and sobbed until my throat ached and my eyes burned.

"Jasper" I gasped the pain worsening at the mention of his name "Jasper, Jasper, Jasper, JASPER, JASPER!"

My scream echoed through the darkness….

Review...? I will love y'all forever and ever!
