Do you guys know how awesome you are?! 137 alerts on this story as of right now. Holy cow! That's incredible! I'm going to make a speech like I won an award and stuff. Soo...I wanna thank all of you, my amazing readers! Without you, this story wouldn't be what it is today. So, thank you! :)

Also, I was planning on having Bella and Olivia graduate this "year" but as you all know Emmett and Rosalie are seniors this year...so there's going to either be some major time lapse, or they're all just going to graduate together and be done with it. I haven't decided but I wanna apologize for not planning that out/seeing that right away. I hadn't really noticed that until shortly ago. So I'm very sorry!

Though no one in the house slept except for me, most of us spent the nights in separate bedrooms. Especially the couples, who were eager to get some alone time in a house full of so many people. Jasper and I certainly took advantage of it. We cuddled up next to each other at night and just talked until I fell asleep. It was nice knowing that I didn't have to get up for school the next day and that I'd get to stay with Jasper all day tomorrow and the next day and the next. Granted there would be people at the house, but it didn't matter to me. I was still with Jasper.

Right away when I woke up I showered and headed downstairs. Being the late riser really sucked and made me self conscious. Most of our guests were in the living room talking among each other. I supposed there was a lot of catching up to do when you didn't see someone in years. That was certainly different than the human world for some families.

"There's some breakfast on the island in the kitchen." Esme said after she'd gotten up and came over to me.

I nodded, "Okay, thanks."

I wanted to tell her that she didn't have to make me breakfast especially since no one else in the house ate. She left me before I had the chance too. Eleazar came into the kitchen shortly after I did and looked at me strangely.

"You eat human food?" He asked simply standing across from where I was sitting.

"Yeah..."

He watched as I ate looking a bit puzzled, "Don't you ever want blood?"

"Ew. No."

"How can that be? That's the only thing vampires survive on and you just don't want it?"

"Nope. In fact that sounds gross."

His eyes followed my fork as I stabbed some eggs, "Have you ever tried it?"

"No. I used to live with humans you know. I can't just go on and drink blood and have that be okay."

"I wonder-"

"She's not a specimen." Jasper snapped at him from behind me. I spun around in my chair and held out my arms to him. He complied and held me gently in his arms for a few seconds.

It's okay Jazzy. He's just annoyingly curious.

He sighed, "But it's annoying."

I just smiled. Anything more would probably cause problems...as if we didn't already have some.

Jasper walked over to the fridge for some odd reason. It's not like he wanted anything out of there.

"Would you be willing to try-"

"Will you leave her alone?" Jasper cut him off. His voice was filled with frustration and his eyes had become black.

Instinctively I hopped off the chair and flew into Jasper's arms to keep him from tearing Eleazar's head off like I figured he very much wanted to do at this point. I felt his muscles relax beneath me and I too began to relax a little.

"Incredible..." Eleazar whispered at us. "it's almost just like them."

"Like who?" Jasper asked him suspiciously. To be honest I was a bit curious as well. He was comparing us to someone and I wanted to know who. He walked into the living room and we abandoned breakfast to follow him.

"Well when I was back with the Volturi there was this couple who was similar to you."

"How so?" I asked not quite understanding what he was getting at.

"Well, in their relationship qualities they were much like you and Jasper. The Volturi wasn't sure what to do with them so they kept them with us until a decision was made. During that time I was quite interested in their type of relationship. They told me how it caused them physical pain to be apart, just like you two. They were extremely protective of one another...can I try something?" It was odd how he just paused in the middle of his story like that and it made me nervous. What kind of horrid plan did he come up with that was more important that the story that may tell me why Jasper and I's relationship was so different?!

"Olivia would you stand here?" He walked over to the other side of the room and pointed to the space on the floor across from him.

Jasper seemed reluctant to let me go, but sure enough I was standing in front of Eleazar patiently waiting my doom.

"Please don't take offense to what I'm about to do. I promise it's for experimental purposes only."

"Okay..." I looked into his eyes to try and see what he was doing. He was about to move but Edward stopped him.

"Do you have a death wish," Edward exclaimed, "you're just going to leave him sitting there like that? Emmett, Peter, come here."

The three guys stood on either side of where Jasper was sitting. I wasn't sure what was going on that Jasper would need protection from but it scared me. Jasper looked rather nervous too and probably not just from my own anxiety.

Eleazar nodded at Edward then looked at me, "Promise you won't be mad."

"Okay."

Then he slapped me across the face. My hands flew to my face instinctively and a gasp left my lips. I heard Jasper stuggling against his brothers' grasps attempting to get to Eleazar. At this point, I wanted to get to him too. I touched whatever skin of his I could get my hands on and sent out as much electricity as my angry mind could muster. He was down on his knees in less than a second.

"Olivia," Edward's strained voice brought me out of my rage.

I looked over at him and saw all three of the guys struggling to contain my protector. I liked how the rest of the family just kind of stood there in a daze. Carlisle snapped out of it first and tried to help them with Jasper.

"Olivia," Edward repeated, "make him calm."

It took a second to understand what he wanted, but then it clicked for me. I walked over and touched Jasper's arm. He paused for a second then his eyes focused on me instead of Eleazar and he continued to struggle out of their grasp but for a different reason.

"Let him go." I told them trying to reach Jasper's arm again.

All of them but Edward thought I was crazy and didn't listen to me. Finally Edward let go and told the rest of them too as well. As soon as they did Jasper's arms were around me and his face was buried in my neck so he could inhale my scent. It must have helped him calm down.

"What the hell is wrong with you man?" Peter asked him staring at us in wonder.

I couldn't see Eleazar's face but I wondered if he got whatever he'd wanted. He'd told me not to be mad but honestly how could you not be mad about someone slapping you across the face? That was uncalled for and I was completely unprepared. Whatever his reasoning was better be good.

"Please explain the justification behind hitting my daughter across the face." Carlisle encouraged him, but not in a friendly way. It was more like a do it or I'll hurt you kind of way.

"First off, I told you not to be mad," Eleazar looked straight at me. "second, I wanted to see how Jasper would react. See when it came time to decided whether or not the couple would be punished or not it was decided that only one of them would suffer the consequences. However as soon as the girl, the one who was going to be punished, got hurt the guy became enraged and attacked us to save her. That's how they both died. I wanted to see since they seem to have had the same relationship as Olivia and Jasper, if Jasper would react the same way the man did. As we just witnessed, he did."

"Careful Jazzman, that'll get you killed one day." Emmett joked trying to lighten the mood.

Jasper scoffed and tightened his grip on me.

Peter rolled his eyes, "Please, if you would've asked Charlotte and I could've given you a first hand account of what you just tested."

"Really? Oh. Well, I didn't know that." Eleazar shrugged and turned to face Carlisle, "either way, we were greatly interested in their special relationship so we researched it. There wasn't a lot of information on it so we simply kept looking over the course of many years. Finally the French seemingly had a similar situation occur and they called it an autre demi."

"Other half." Edward whispered in thought.

"That's the English translation, yes. They believe, and I do too, that vampires have many mates, not just one like most people believe. However they also believe that we only have one true mate. That would be your autre demi. If you think about it it makes sense. There are billions of people in the world what are the odds that all of us are specially mated. We're just like humans except that our relationships are a bit deeper. We can love many people, just like humans, but we only have one true soul mate. That explains why Jasper's connection with Olivia trumped the one he had with Alice. Alice was just a mate but Olivia is his one true soul mate."

I looked up at Jasper, "Holy crap. Someone just explained our lives."

He smiled at me and rolled his eyes. Though he wasn't very surprised at this fact, I was. Our time of being unknown was over. Finally we could tell people what we were and they might know what it was.

"No they won't," Edward ruined my positive thoughts. "absolutely no one will know what that is or how that came to be."

"Don't ruin my fun Edward."

"What fun? What part of that was fun," Emmett asked, "you just got hit in the face and then told that you're a freak. I could've done that."

Carlisle sighed and shook his head, "That's not what she was told. Technically-"

"Technically." Emmett mocked him before he could continue.

"Emmett you're so annoying!" Alice's voice sounded throughout the house. Then she appeared at the edge of the living room with a huge grin on her face. The Denali sisters rushed over to hug her. It was nice to see how close everyone was to one another but I couldn't help but feel like I was an intruder. This was supposed to be a family reunion. A family get together...I wasn't family.

Edward rolled his eyes, "You're Carlisle's daughter. You're as family as it gets."

"Do you feel left out?" Emmett teased me.

"No. I just feel like I shouldn't be here." I whispered.

"Of course you should be here." Jasper quickly tried to change the way I felt. He didn't do so forcefully, but I could tell by the way he hugged me that he really wanted to.

I melted into his arms and did so easily and semi-gratefully. His affection often did this to me. I still felt the same though. This felt more like a family event and though I was Carlisle's daughter I wasn't exactly family. Or at least I didn't feel like it. I suppose it was because I didn't know these people very well yet.

The four girls laughed about something and then faced the rest of the family.

"Hi Peter, hi Charlotte!" Alice greeted them, bounding over to hug them. I watched as they both hugged her, really missing her. I was glad to see them embrace her so eagerly. I could only hope that one day that would be me.

Emmett came up behind me and pulled me away from Jasper, "You need to take your dignity and your little smarty pants brain and leave that boy."

Jasper glared at Emmett, "Are you telling her to leave me?"

"Yes because it's obvious that she wants to get in on that group hug that Peter and Charlotte had with Alice."

"I think that was only for Peter, Charlotte, and Alice." I told him giving Jasper a weird look.

Peter turned and looked at me, "Aw! You want a hug from Peter?"

He grabbed my hand and pulled me in for an awkward hug.

I waited for him to finish his...whatever he was doing to me and then when I was finally released I went and hugged Jasper, "Please. Take the Peter germs off of me."

Jasper laughed and pulled me into his arms.

"So Alice...who was the friend you were meeting?" One of the Denali sisters asked dragging her to the couch.

"Well it wasn't really a meeting. We didn't talk at all. Talking wouldn't have been helpful yet. He needs some time to sit and wait before we meet again."

"So you did go see Alex?" Emmett asked.

She nodded, "His name is Adam but yes."

"But you've never talked to him?" Charlotte asked.

"No the times not right yet."

"When will it be right?" Jasper asked.

Alice shrugged, "I'm not sure yet. I hope you guys haven't been having too much fun without me. It hasn't appeared that you have from what I've seen."

"Oh yeah it's been great fun." Edward muttered sarcastically.

Peter sighed dramatically, "These two weeks are going to kill me."

"You can survive vampire wars but you can't survive two weeks with Jasper and his extended family?" Charlotte stared at him like he was an idiot. Probably because he was.

In a way Peter reminded me of Emmett. He was funny and stupid. But Peter wasn't as open. He'd given no indication of wanting to talk about himself or anything to do with his past or present. Emmett could talk about anything with almost anyone. I guess that came with Peter's past.

"Sounds about right." Jasper agreed with Charlotte.

"So," Alice said after the room had fallen silent, "What should we do today? We have two weeks of vacation now."

We all looked around at each other and shrugged. It was only Sunday, the second day of our vacation, and we already had nothing to do.

I looked up at Jasper and tapped his arm, "Didn't you say you had some ideas?"

"Not until later this week. It's a Wednesday idea." He told me.

"Why?" Peter asked, "why can't it be a Sunday idea?"

"Because it's a Wednesday idea. Shut up Peter."

Emmett rolled his eyes, "That's what Jasper says when he doesn't have an answer to your question. He just tells you to shut up."

"Shut up Emmett." Jasper muttered.

Emmett pointed at him and rose his eyebrows, Jasper proving his point.

Alice sighed, "Well we can't just sit around all day! We gotta do something."

"Let's go see town. We can go out and about today!" Tanya suggested.

"Works for me." Alice smiled. She loved shopping so of course she'd be okay going out to town.

"We're all going to go to town?" Emmett asked looking around at all of us. It was kind've a stretch.

I highly doubted that Peter and Charlotte would go. Something told me that none of the guys would wanna go so it was probably just going to be the girls.

The four Denali girls decided to go along with Alice and Rosalie. Jasper was trying to convince me to go but I wasn't so sure. I didn't have a ton of money and the money I did have was going towards that beautiful Jeep. That would leave me with a thousand dollars but the last thing I needed was to blow all my money on stupid stuff like clothes.

To get my Jeep, all I had to do was wait for the guy to get back from Seattle. Then he said he'd let me know when we could meet. Until then, I'd wait patiently.

In the end I decided to go with the girls and I went upstairs to grab some of my cash and my purse. I wasn't sure whether or not this was a good decision but I guess I'd find out. Jasper gave me a hug goodbye and kissed my forehead.

"Have fun. Enjoy yourself," He nudged me, "and buy me lots of things."

I giggled, "Okay Jazzy."

We took their suburban so we could all fit in one vehicle. Rosalie drove and Tanya sat up front while Me, Alice, and Kate sat in the middle row, which left Carmen and Irina in the back. Though they made sure they were still apart of the conversation by scooting up so they were in the gaps of us three in the middle.

"What'd you do to your wrist, Olivia?" Carmen asked me trying to start up a conversation.

"Um...I was riding a motorcycle on an old beat up road with some friends and I turned too hard and went to fast and fell off and tumbled down the road."

"You ride motorcycles?" Tanya asked turning around to face me. She looked surprised.

"Just the once. It was the only time I've ridden."

She nodded in understanding and turned back around.

"I thought you were part vampire." Carmen said.

"I am but I'm also part human so I still get hurt semi easily."

"So ladies," Kate changed the subject, "what are we looking for today?"

"Anything I want." Alice stated causing the other girls to giggle.

Irina rolled her eyes, "We knew that Alice. I think she was more or less asking everyone else."

"I need some new heels." Rosalie stated, "the black ones that I have are wearing out."

Tanya gasped, "Oh! You know what I want? Some heeled booties. I've seen those everywhere and they are adorable."

The girls began talking about booties and cardigans and all these things I didn't really understand. I pulled out my phone and found a little card stuck in the protective case that I'd put on my phone. Grabbing the card I flipped it over and saw that it was in fact exactly what I'd thought it was. It was Jasper's credit card.

I shook my head to myself and texted Jasper to tell him how pointless that was because I wouldn't use it anyway.

He didn't seem excited about that news. In fact he told me that I needed to use it because he had 'too much money and had nothing to do with it.'

I kept shaking my head silently and rolling my eyes at him while he tried to convince me to use his card.

"If you won't I will." Alice told me suddenly.

I looked up at her and back down at the little black card in my hands and sighed, "Maybe you should. He's dying for someone to use it."

I'd thought she was kidding but it was apparant as she reached for the card that I was wrong.

As soon as I looked at her funny she caught on, "Oh. Nevermind."

Tanya looked at her funny, "You didn't really think she'd let you use it did you?"

"Kind of!"

Well at least it was clear to everyone else that I was kidding.

When we got to the mall Alice was bouncing out of her seat. She had the door open before Rosalie even shut off the car and she wasn't even sitting by the door. I grabbed my purse and stood outside with the estatic little vampire while we waited for our crew to pile out of the car. There wasn't many people here judging by the parking lot but I supposed that it was normal for a Sunday.

We split off into groups when we got inside. Alice and Irina were going to look for some jacket thing, Rosalie and Tanya were going to get boots/heels which left me, Carmen, and Kate to fend for ourselves.

"Where to first?" Carmen asked looking between Kate and I.

Since neither of us really cared where we went or knew this mall particularly well we just wandered from store to store and went into the ones we thought might have good clothes. Alice and Irina caught up with us after a couple stores and then got both Carmen and Kate excited to go into this Victoria Secret store. I didn't know what it was so I followed along, because where else was I gunna go, then much to my horror I found out exactly what kind of store Victoria's Secret was.

My mind instantly went back to the night Emmett and I were packing for my two week stay with the Cullen's. Emmett picking out what he thought to be "sexy clothing." This store was full of it.

As I walked around, shamefully following my party of giggling girls, I hoped that they weren't going to use this "sexy clothing" while I was in the house. I had a feeling that that would be really awkward. But my fears were heightened by my logic that asked me why they'd be buying this stuff now if they weren't going to use it now.

Carmen pulled out this extremely showy outfit that was basically see through...everywhere, "Do you think Eleazar would like this?"

I would've laughed had I not seen that she was completely serious. I tried as hard as I could not to gape in surprise but I'm not sure it worked real well. Eleazar didn't strike me as someone who was...how do I put this? Frisky? I don't how to word that. Either way Eleazar seemed way to...formal? and proper? to enjoy such clothing. But hey, Carmen knew Eleazar a hell of a lot better than I knew Eleazar. Debating on Eleazar's enjoyment of such things made me naturally curious as to whether or not Jasper liked such clothing...surely Alice would know. According to Emmett those two were "active" for over 80 years. Still that just didn't sound like a question you should ask your boyfriends ex-girlfriend.

Rosalie pulled out a different, surprisingly even worse outfit, "I think I'm going to get this for Emmett. I think he'd like it."

I was about 100% positive that Emmett wouldn't wear such a thing. So of course, being the unexperienced one in the group, this made me wonder how that was for Emmett exactly.

Kate noticed my confusion, "What's wrong Olivia? You look confused."

I shook my head much to embarrassed to explain why I was so confused.

"What?" Alice prodded me, trying to get me to talk about it.

I kept shaking my head, "It's fine. Honestly."

"You don't understand something I can see it. What is it?" Carmen looked at me patiently.

I sighed, "Don't worry about it. I got it."

"You've never been in one of these stores have you?" Rosalie guessed with a small smirk.

Defeated, I shook my head.

Tanya gasped at me like I'd committed a crime, "Never?!"

Alice's eyes were wide, "So you don't have any of this then?! You need to use that credit card then and buy some. It drives Jasper crazy."

"Good crazy..right?" I felt like an idiot for having to ask that but I wanted to make sure.

She giggled at me and rolled her eyes, "In a good way of course! That's why they make this stuff. Guys love it because it's hot, but they hate it because it drives them crazy."

It was all starting to click then. Rosalie had said that outfit was for Emmett because he would like it for her, not because he was actually going to wear it. Maybe that's what Jasper had meant when he said buy him lots of stuff then. Did he want me to use his credit card to buy this stuff for me to wear for him? I asked the group because I figured they'd have a better idea than I did.

"Maybe. He could've just been kidding though too." Rosalie pointed out, looking at some more terribly showy outfits. As I looked around the store at all of these things it occured to me that though Jasper may like them, I wasn't sure that I'd be confident enough to wear them. Ever.

Alice just shrugged, "He could've. He used to tell me that all the time. But I'm not sure if he would tell you that because you're relationship is still pretty new. But then again this stuff really drove Jasper nuts so maybe."

"Is it weird hearing that stuff from her?" Carmen asked me, "I mean, they used to date and do things together. Obviously because that's why she knows so much but I dunno. I would just find that weird."

"Kind of," I admitted, "it's weird to have someone know so much about what Jasper likes and what he doesn't but I guess it's helpful sometimes. Like now I guess."

"Sorry. Just trying to share knowledge." Alice smiled and continued browsing. "hey! Jasper would like this!"

She pulled out a one piece light pink outfit that was completely see through except for the top where it was leathery and sparkly. Instantly I knew I could never in a million years wear anything like that. Ever.

I felt bad for Jasper. He was going from a girl who'd wear anything for him to a girl who'd wear nothing for him because she was too self-conscious. Poor Jazzy.

My eyes must've said it all because she shook her head at me and sighed.

"Maybe we should start with something less obnoxious." Kate suggested looking between Alice and I.

"She said she's never been in these stores before." Irina agreed.

Alice took my hand and dragged me towards the back where there was less outfits and more the undergarments were just as see through, they were a little less embarrassing for me. In fact I actually ended up buying some of the cheaper ones. All the girls ended up trying on a few things and I splurged a little on myself with some encouragement from the girls.

Afterwards we split up again and I followed Alice and Carmen to this store that apparently had some good clothes. They might've been good clothes but their price tags had me nearly fainting. I didn't buy anything there.

We continued to wander from place to place. The rest of the girls bought many items at what I would consider ridiculous prices. I only bought stuff if it was semi cheap, except for in Victoria's Secret. That wasn't all that cheap. All in all I ended up with the stuff from Victoria's Secret, two pairs of jeans, a white sweater, and a pair of brown boots that were $20. I thought that was cheap for such cute boots.

It was after dinner time when we got home. Though I'd been cautious at first, I ended up having a really great time. A way better time than I thought I'd have.

Jasper greeted me at the door and pulled me into a hug as soon as he could grab me. "I missed you, Livi."

I giggled at him and his odd behavior, "I love you Jazzy. I missed you too."

He pulled back and grinned at me then observed my bags, "You know I was kidding when I told you to buy me something nice. Alice told you what I could've meant didn't didn't she? God I was kiddin'. You know I'd never ask for somethin' like that from you, Livi. At least...not yet anyway."

"Don't worry! It's for me, not you."

Jasper seemed to relax a little at that and nodded, "Good it looks like you bought lots of stuff for you."

"Probably more than I should've."

"You deserve it. And it was on me right?" He waited for my conformation with raised eyebrows.

My eyes shifted from him to the floor and back again, "Well..."

"Livi! Why wouldn't you use it?"

"Because it's your money. You should've have to buy me things, I have my own money."

He sighed and shook his head, "Olivia I have more money than I know what to do with. Hence why you should take some and spend it on yourself. What good is money if you can't spend it on the girl you love?"

"Jazzy..." I tried to think of a response for that but really didn't have one. I wasn't quite sure how to make my emotions into words. "I don't like spending your money."

There. That was totally a sophisticated way of expressing my emotions. Not.

"Why not? My money's just as good as your money. Even better in fact because I have more of it."

"Because it's yours. Not mine." I grabbed my stuff and headed upstairs to Jasper's room where my things were. I took all the tags off of my stuff, since I'd tried it on in the store, and threw it in my bag since I refused to wear things without washing them first. Who knew where that has been before it came to me. I'd have to go home at some point over the break to wash my clothes and stuff. Then I could wear my nice new clothes.

Downstairs, Emmett and Peter were arm wrestling on the coffee table.

"You break my table Emmett Cullen and so help me Satan." Carlisle threatened with a smirk on his face. I loved how laid back he was. It was a really pleasant change from Derek and Maria. Though looking back Derek wasn't ever as bad Maria.

"Why don't you threaten Peter?" Emmett replied never taking his eyes away from Peter. His voice didn't even sound strained. In fact he didn't even look like he was trying but Peter on the other hand looked like he was giving it everything he had.

After a few more moments Emmett finally got bored and slammed Peter's hand down on the table, "Loser."

Peter shook his hand out and stretched it, "Fuckin' A man! I thought you'd let that go on forever."

I smiled at the two and went to sit by Jasper on the little couch. He welcomed me into his arms for a second before Emmett took my hand and pulled me towards the table.

"Come on Squirt, let's arm wrestle."

"No way." I shook my head and tried to go back to Jasper to no avail.

Emmett's shoulders slumped and he put on his puppy dog eyes, "Please! Why not it'll be fun!"

"No way. You beat Peter and he's way stronger than I am! Besides, I'm right handed and right now my right hand is hurt so I'll lose for sure."

"Aw please! I'll go easy on ya! Come on you're my favorite Squirt...please."

Since I figured he'd keep it up until I said yes, I said yes. He took my hand in his and got ready.

"Technically, since you have to use your left hand, I have to use mine too. I'm right handed so it gives us both a disadvantage."

I scoffed, "Yeah but you're stronger than I am so it really doesn't matter."

He smirked and asked if I was ready. I nodded and then I felt him slowly apply force on my hand. As he applied force, I naturally did as well and soon I felt his strength max out. I looked into Emmett's eyes and saw that he was actually giving it everything he had.

"Jesus Squirt," Emmett's voice sounded strained as he spoke, "I thought you said you were a weakling."

"I am...are you seriously trying?"

"No Squirt I'm frolicking through the flowers right now! Yes I'm actually trying!"

"Oh." I looked up at Carlisle who looked just as confused as I felt.

He smiled at me as he met my eyes, "That can't be. You're only half human...I've never met another one that was stronger than Emmett."

"Are you really trying?" Rosalie asked Em, still not believing that I was actually holding my own.

"Yes!" Emmett grunted trying to push my hand back.

Jasper moved closer so his face was right next to mine, "Push him back, Livi. Kick his ass."

I smirked at my Jazzy suddenly full of determination. I applied even more force on Emmett's hand and watched as it got closer and closer to the table until it touched. Emmett released my hand then with a groan, "Damn you!"

Jasper and Carlisle cheered and clapped for me. I felt my face get red at the attention.

"What the hell did you do? Good God. I thought you were a weakling?!"

"I don't know..." I told him honestly.

Peter pushed Emmett out of the way and took my hand so I could arm wrestle him, "Do me. He was probably just tired from me kickin' his ass."

"I thought you lost." Tanya smirked.

He sent her a look but didn't say anything. Once he was ready I nodded at him to start. Once again I could feel his strength start to max out as he pushed against my hand.

"Jesus Christ. You lift weights or somethin'?"

"No, I just...I don't know. I usually lose at this kinda stuff."

"Against who? God?" Peter used both of his hands and tried to push my hand back against the table. I could feel the added pressure, but it did nothing to move my hand.

I smiled as I watched him struggle to try and beat me.

"Kick his ass, Livi." Jasper cheered me on. The smile on his face was unmistakable and it encouraged me to do as he pleased.

As I pushed both Peters hands down to the table Emmett joined in and tried to help Peter push me back as well. Then Jasper joined me and soon we were at a standstill, neither of us giving up as we were all trying to beat one another.

Carlisle broke up our party just as Emmett started blabbing about how Jasper was cheating. I really didn't see how Jasper cheated since he was only helping me just like Emmett was to Peter.

Then the doorbell rang breaking all of us out of our excitement and replacing it with a deadly silence.

"Who is it?" I whispered to Jasper. Were we expecting more visitors? Jazzy didn't say anything about more people coming over.

He looked at me a shrugged then looked up at Carlisle.

Esme stood and walked towards the door. Carlisle looked conflicted as to whether or not he should let her go by herself. She was a vampire so there wasn't much that could hurt her but on the other hand none of us seemed to know who was at the door. Ultimately he decided to stay but shushed anyone who spoke because he was listening for any danger.

"Carlisle," Esme called after a few moments, "will you come here please."

She didn't have to ask him twice. He got up and went to her as soon as she said his name.

"Did you guys invite anyone else?" Kate asked Edward, who shook his head.

"I can't tell who it is. They can't be very old..." He whispered.

Emmett flexed his muscles a bit, "It's probably for me because I'm so popular."

Jasper scoffed causing Emmett to glare at him and me to laugh.

"Shut up Squirt. No one likes you." Em turned his glare to me.

Jasper put his arms around me, "I like you Livi."

I stuck my tongue out at Emmett and snuggled up against Jasper, "See someone likes me. Jerkface."
