Chapter fourteen: Theory.
Mpov
Walking back from the toilet, I heard Edward and Alice yell at Emmet and I couldn't help but snicker.
"Hey, is everything alright in here?" I asked innocently.
Their heads snapped in my direction.
"Yes. It's fine." Edward told me. His eyes were somehow...soft, when they met mine.
"I guess you have some questions." I assumed.
Carlisle nodded, his face pensive. He gestured for me to sit back down and I waited for him to say something, but Alice beat him to it.
"Who wrote the books?" she asked, almost hopping up and down.
"Stephenie Meyer."
"When did she write the first?"
I stared at her. "I don't know. A couple of years ago. I never paid attention to it. Why?"
"Just something to see if my theory checks out."
"What theory, Alice?" Rosalie, Emmet, Jasper and I all asked at the same time.
Alice's face was priceless and I started laughing. I was already feeling giddy, but for some reason it got worse when I started laughing. Before I knew it I had to wipe tears from my eyes and I clutches my sides, which were still tender.
Jasper joined in and then I realized why I was having so much fun. When Jasper really let go, everyone else in the room soon started laughing too.
"Jasper..ah..ha..please stop!" I choked out.
It took another couple of minutes, but eventually we all got a chance to calm down.
Jasper's pov
I finally got my emotions under control, but it took me quite a bit of concentrating to do so.
I never knew a human could have such a contagious laughter, but Bella, or rather Monica, was radiating such pure fun that I couldn't help myself.
"Thanks for giving us a chance to breathe, Jazz." Alice teased, punching me lightly on the arm.
"Come on, Alice. What is this theory of yours?" Rose urged, her annoyance was back and it started to slowly affect me, which erased all of the fun that I had just now.
"I think we all need to sit down again," Alice said carefully.
Alice was radiating a strange mixture of excitement, resentment and anxiety. I bit my questions back and waited for her to start.
"I'm sure we all remember the holiday we spent here to analyze the area before we moved here." She glanced around the room and then continued. "Back then there was a woman living here, who disappeared two days before we left. It seemed like she had vanished into thin air."
Again she assessed our responses. I took her hand and squeezed it gently. Her anxiety grew and I tried to calm her down. She smiled at me and took a deep breath.
"This woman was very aware of us. Almost too aware. Edward and I had noticed it, but her thoughts weren't reason for concern. Not until the evening before she disappeared. She somehow figured out we were mythical creatures, although she didn't know what exactly. Edward and I watched her intently, but then all of a sudden her future disappeared for me. A couple of hours later she went missing."
Monica threw up her hands. "Wait a minute! Are you telling me that that woman was Stephenie Meyer?"
"It could be," Alice said quietly.
"Gah! Then this is all real, and not just fictional?"
"We think it is. I certainly hope it is! And I think you should hope so too, otherwise you wouldn't be real either, now would you?"
Monica bit her lip, her forehead creased. She drummed her fingers on the table as she pondered what Alice had just said.
I could feel the curiosity and the annoyance from Edward and I snickered. He was really hating the fact that he couldn't hear her thoughts.
"So, this is some sort of alternate reality? A different dimension?"
The shock and surprise emanating from my family was actually very funny. I laughed, but was met with so much annoyance that it quickly got stuck in my throat.
"Fine! I'll leave," I muttered before I got up and made my way outside.
Mpov
Why I jasper leaving?
What did I just miss?
I shook my head and concentrated on the people in the room.
"Okay, so we agree that I came from another world." I made little quote marks in the air at the last word and grinned when Edward smiled at me.
That smile distracted me long enough for me to forget what I wanted to say. When I realized I was gaping at him, I reluctantly diverted my eyes.
Come on Monica!
Concentrate.
You are soooo not here to ogle Edward!
Alice's pov
I was hurt that the others had made Jazz so uncomfortable that he had left. I noticed that Edward got distracted by Monica and I suddenly had the most amusing vision. I immediately began singing some random song in my head. Edward was not going to get this one out of me. I would only tell Jazz.
"I'm going to find Jasper," I announced, and without waiting for an answer I darted out of the room.
I followed Jasper's scent across the river and up to the clearing where we usually played baseball.
"Jasper, where are you?" I called out.
"Over here," he whispered in my ear.
I smiled and leaned back into in his chest.
"You're excited about something. Care to share?"
I turned in his arms to look up at him. He leaned down and kissed me softly. I momentarily forgot what I wanted to say, and who could blame me, with Jasper's growing lust.
It was almost an hour later when the vision I had had earlier came back to me.
"Jazz, you've got to hear this," I murmured lazily, tracing random shapes on his bare chest.
Epov
Alice had run out while deliberately keeping me out of her mind. She probably had another vision. I wondered what it was this time and why she wouldn't share it with me.
She had shown me one when I got angry earlier and I was confused by it. It was about Monica and me. We were arriving at school together in my Volvo. There wasn't much more to it, but we both kept sneaking glances at each other. I didn't know what to make of it, but the confusion had calmed me enough to get my anger under control and I was sure that was Alice's intention.
I wasn't sure if I wanted to trust this girl with our secret, though. No matter what Alice had seen in her future.
A different dimension might be possible, but since I couldn't hear her thoughts I couldn't be sure she was telling the truth.
I'll have to keep an eye on her at all times. I can't risk our safety.
There is, of course, the added risk of her blood calling to me. Maybe it's not such a good idea for me to keep track of her.
It might be wiser for us to move.
With that last thought I shuddered. Forks was a great place to live. It was overcast for most of the year and with that we got to be as normal as possible, besides that there was a vast amount of land available for hunting with easy access to the Canadian forests.
We all loved it here and I knew moving would be difficult for all of us.
Edward? Carlisle asked silently. Do you think she will be a danger to us?
"I don't know," I said, too low for the girl to hear.
A/N: Thank you all sooooo much for your lovely reviews :D. You guys are the best. I hope you enjoy this chapter as well.
