Last Time:
"Just thinking about how right you are. My life really is a soap opera." We laughed again. A few hours later Mrs. Cope came in with another man and took me and the rest of the kids to as dining room. We ate food that tasted like plastic and then we were taken to get ready for bed. For the next week things happened in the same manner. Waking up, getting ready for breakfast, eating breakfast, spending time with Nessie, lunch, more time with Nessie, dinner, and then bed again. I was staring to doubt Bella and coming for me until Saturday afternoon, when Mrs. Cope came running into the entertainment room and straight towards where me and Nessie were playing foosball. I had regained most of my strength and was able to walk and even run again.
"Jasper! Someone is here for you?" Her smile was blinding and I knew it couldn't have been from Bella. Telling from the last time they were together they hated each other. I started to panic, what if it was someone else?
I looked over at Nessie and she was looking down with her shoulder hunched over. "Who?" I asked carefully. I walked over to Nessie and wrapped my arm around her shoulder.
"I don't know why, but Raven Campton, the singer is here to adopt you." She was practically bouncing up and down.
My eyes widened. "Who?"
Mrs. Cope opened her mouth, but another voice answered from behind her. "Now, now, Jasper. I am hurt, that you don't even remember your big sister after only a week." I looked behind Mrs. Cope and saw Bella. She winked at me and walked forward.
I felt Nessie's eyes on me. "What the hell Jasper? Why didn't you tell me your sister was Raven Campton?"
"Because I didn't know." I whispered.
"Man, your life really is a soap opera." She laughed.
Chapter 20 (APOV)
"Hurry up, daddy!" I yelled from my spot in the back seat. We were currently on our way to get Jasper. Mom and Dad had talked about it all week and decided to adopt him and I couldn't be any more excited. Bella had disappeared the day after Jasper left and I couldn't figure out why. The next day at school Tanya was saying how she ran away with Jacob and they went to Mexico.
Daddy was getting annoyed; I could tell by the way his eyes and face held little humor, but what could I say. I was beyond hyper; I would see my Jasper again. "Alice, for the tenth sign, I am at a red light, I can't go any faster, without putting all of us in the hospital, now sit back and relax." Dad scolded. I pouted, but sat back and looked out the window. Rose was sitting beside me and started rubbing my shoulder telling me I would get to see him soon and I should just take a deep breath. Edward was sitting up front glaring at anything that moved which while sitting in a moving car was everything. Emmett was sitting beside Rose, mumbling something about new pranks and Jasper tricks.
I was bouncing in my seat as we pulled up to the adoptive agency building. I practically ran into the building with a shit eating grin on my face. I looked around, I could see a lot of other kids younger than me playing in what looked to be a living room. It had an old T.V. and a few worn out couches, but in all it looked downright ugly. The walls clashed with carpet, the couches were stained and different colors. I shuddered, my poor Jasper had to live here for the past week.
Speaking of Jasper, I couldn't see him. I saw a few five years olds playing with a few blocks, I could see in the far corner a girl that looked to be about my age, it looked like she was crying, her entire frame was shaking. I felt sad for the poor girl, she looked heartbroken, but then again I would be too if I had to live here.
I turned back around trying my best to feel happy about seeing my Jasper again. Carlisle, Edward, Rose and Emmett walked into the building much calmer than I had, but I could see the excitement in the way they walked; with an extra bounce in their steps. They walked straight to the desk.
"Hello, my name is Carlisle Cullen, I am here to adopt Jasper Dwyer; he came about a week ago." Carlisle smiled wetly at the lady. She looked to be in her mid sixties, with white hair, pinned up in a bun.
The lady nodded and started typing on the key board. She stopped and started reading something on the screen. I walked over and stood by Carlisle's side. "Oh, I'm sorry, the only Jasper Dwyer we had left this morning with his new family."
"New-new family? What do you mean 'new family'?" I stuttered out horrified. My Jasper can't have already left, he was supposed to be with me.
The woman looked at me. "I mean, he was adopted this morning. It says right here, he left a little before lunch time." The woman pointed at the screen of her computer.
"Can you tell me who took him?" Edward asked. I could hear he was upset , while still trying to stay calm. That would be Edward . . . . . . . . Me? Well, I am freaking out. I could feel the tears pouring down my face, he couldn't be gone. I needed him, he was my life. I started shaking and Emmett came over. He wrapped his arms around me and I continued to cry and sob onto his shoulder.
"Shh, Ali, we'll find him, I promise. We'll bring him home and then I'll kick his ass for making you cry, I promise." Emmett said trying to sooth me.
"Fat chance, of that ever happening, Mr. Dwyer went to a new home in L.A." I whirled around to see Mrs. Cope standing there with an evil manipulative smile on her face. I started screaming profanities at her and Emmett had to hold me back while I screamed and yelled trying to kill her.
Daddy stepped forward. "Who adopted Jasper, Mrs. Cope?" He asked in his calm voice, but even an idiot could have heard the sadness in his voice. We all knew daddy loved Jasper like a son, so did Esme for that matter.
"I can not disclose that information to you, Mr. Cullen." I heard a shriek and the next thing I knew Rose had Mrs. Cope up against the wall. Mrs. Cope's eyes were wide with fear and anger. Rose on the other hand was pure anger, I don't think I had ever seen her so angry.
"Look, Lady, you're going to tell me where Jasper is or I am going to hurt you beyond words, clear?" Rose's voice was deadly calm and it sent shivers up my spine.
"Ra-Raven Campton came in this morning saying a friend of hers, brother needed help and she came. She adopted him on the spot and gave a quarter of a million dollars to help fix this place up." I could hear her voice shake with anger and fear.
"Good, now, where are they?" Rose asked letting the woman down slightly.
"She said she had to fix a few things up in L.A." My eyes widened. Jasper was in L.A.? Wow.
"Rose, let the woman go, we have to make plans to find Jasper." Carlisle said with hope in his voice.
We left soon after without further incident. I kept sobbing into Emmett's shoulder. He kept trying to sooth me, but I couldn't relax or be happy until Jasper was in my arms again. "Carlisle are we going to L.A.?" Rose asked.
"Rose, I don't know. Maybe we can talk to Jacob about talking to Raven. I mean he and Bella had to have been the cause of Raven coming here. Didn't you hear her say 'a friend of hers, brother needed help.' And seeing as Jasper is Bella's brother and she knows, Jacob, who in turn knows Raven, it only makes sense." Carlisle said. I had no idea what he meant, but it sounded like we weren't going to find my Jazzy. That caused a whole new round of tears.
Soon after we arrived home and I jumped out of the car and started running towards the house to pack. I didn't care what they say I was going to L.A. to find my Jazzy. I felt strong arms wrap around my waist. "Alice, listen to me. Going to L.A. is not going to bring him back." I heard Edward's voice.
"Why not, Edward? I need him, I love him." I yelled back in his face, completely forgetting the fact that he knew my plan without me even telling him.
"Alice, we will bring him back, but you have to give us time. Putting yourself in harm's way is not going to help us or Jasper. Think about it Alice, L.A. is a big place, you could get lost or hurt, and it won't solve anything, but cause more pain." Edward yelled, letting me go.
"I can't Edward, I can't live without him!" I screamed.
JPOV
"Why would you have to live without me?" I asked. I had been watching the scene unfold in front of me and it broke my heart.
Alice turned to me, her hair was a mess from her running her hands through it and tears streaked down her cheeks. Her eyes were red and puffy; they had a glossy look to them making them pop. "Jasper?"
I nodded and the next thing I knew I was lying on the ground with Alice on top of me, hugging me to death. I could feel her tears soak my shirt. "Oh, god, I thought I lost you."
"Alice, you couldn't get rid of me even if you wanted me gone." I laughed, wrapping my arms around her. I stroked her hair and sat up. She stayed in my lap and at that moment I didn't want it any other way.
EPOV
I stared wide eyed as Alice tackled Jasper to the ground. They started talking to each other and then Jasper sat up with Alice still in his lap. I looked over at Carlisle, Rose, and Emmett. All three had their mouths hanging open with owl eyes. I shook my head and ran over to Alice and Jasper. "Alice, get off him so he can stand up." I said prying her off him.
Alice jumped up and Jasper stood up carefully rubbing his arm. "Edward, have I ever told you that Alice should try out for the football team?" He asked rubbing his neck.
I laughed and Alice giggled and wrapped her arms around him again. Rose ran past me and wrapped her arms around his neck. "I missed you, Jazz." She whispered.
"I missed you too, Rose." She pulled back and kissed him on the cheek. I walked over and gave him a guy hug, he returned it. Emmett walked over and gave him a bone crushing hug. I could hear the air leave his lungs. Alice slapped Emmett.
"Emmett, put my boyfriend down before I make you." She said forcefully. Emmett let Jasper go and he fell on back again.
He started gasping for air, dramatically. "Air, oh sweet, sweet, air. I have missed you so." We laughed at Jasper's stupidity. I held my arm out to him and he grabbed it.
Carlisle came over next and gave him a hug. "I am glad you are here again, Jasper, but I am curious, where is Raven? We talked to Mrs. Cope and she said that Raven Campton adopted you." He said confused.
"I did." I looked up and saw Bella and Esme standing in the doorway with big smiles on their faces. "I officially adopted Jasper early this morning and brought him back home." My eyes widened. Bella was . . . . . . . Raven? The Raven Campton, the famous singer and the one I have had a huge crush on since I first heard her angelic voice.
"Your Raven Campton the singer?" I stuttered out.
Bella limped over to me. She looked up at me. "Disappointed, I'm not some crazed bitch?" She mocked.
My smile grew. I wrapped my arms around her and laughed. "I knew something was different about you. And I knew for a fact you wouldn't let Jasper leave us."
She laughed. "How could I, you guys are his family. I don't like the idea of families being split up." She whispered the last part, like she didn't mean for me to hear it.
I put her down and looked at her. "But, we left you."
"I'm not family." She said looking down.
I lifted her chin with my finger. "Bella, no matter what you are part of the family. After everything you have done for us after what we did for you, it us who don't deserve you in our family, but then again we are selfish. Always, wanting the true heroes, for ourselves." I smiled at her, but it was all true. She was definitely a person to look up to. I look up to her, like I did Carlisle.
She had tears in her eyes. "Thank you, Edward. You will never know how much hearing that means to me."
I smiled. "Okay, okay, you have had your fun with the famous girl, I want to say something to her too you know?" I could hear Alice grumbling from behind me. I stepped aside and she stepped up.
At first her eyes were downcast, but then they turned to Bella. "Bella, I owe you more than I can say. I want you to know that what Edward said was true, you are family, whether you like it or not." Before Bella could respond she grabbed her in a hug and cried on her shoulder.
Bella looked up at me in alarm, but I just smile at her. "Alice, again that means a lot to me, but I do need to breathe." Bella's face was turning red. I grabbed Alice quickly and pulled her off, before she killed her.
"Sorry." Alice said sheepishly.
"It's fine." Bella laughed. For the next hour we talked about Bella being Raven Campton and Jasper's stay. We had moved into the living room and I was sitting on the couch beside Bella. Jasper and Alice were cuddling in the love seat. Esme and Carlisle were sitting together on the couch across from us. Emmett and Rose were making out on the floor like usual.
I opened my mouth to ask if I could talk to Bella privately, but my words were cut off when we heard a muffled thud come from upstairs. We all jumped and Emmett and I started running upstairs. "What the hell was that?" Emmett boomed. I could hear the rest of the group running upstairs with us. I heard someone curse from inside my room and I ran for the door. I swung the door open only to hear I high pitched scream . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Okay, I am done this chapter. I am having slight problems with my e-mail account. It won't let me know I have mail, even though I know I have mail.
On another note can someone help me? I have been looking for a story, but I can't remember what it's called, but it was good.
It was about Bella and Edward. Bella is blind because she was raped when Emmett got in with the wrong crowd. Emmett lives with Charlie, but Bella doesn't in the beginning. Emmett, Rose, Edward, Jasper and Alice were playing a game and someone asked Rose something like what would she do if she saw a blind person standing in the middle of the road. She said she would leave them there because they should have known better. Emmett get's upset and the next school day Bella's there.
Anybody know the title or author?
