Alice's Point of View
Waking up in Jasper's arms every morning was pure perfection. I never knew that I could possibly be this happy. It was like I'd been living in the dark for the past 17 years and suddenly he came along and my world was filled with bright, blinding light. It was also quite endearing how he assumed that I didn't notice his little problem every morning. I may not be very experienced in that area, but I certainly wasn't oblivious to it either. Even though I have no clue if I'm ready to take our relationship to that level yet, I find myself constantly thinking about what it would be like. Unfortunately, those thoughts just put my lack of experience back into focus. I know I could talk to Rose or Bella about it but it'd be too weird; Bella is Jasper's sister and Rose would probably tell Emmett who would in turn, kick Jasper's ass or something.
This particular morning was really no different than the rest. I could feel Jasper stirring behind me and I moved around a little bit trying to get some kind of reaction from him. I was not disappointed as I heard his feet hit the floor, walking towards the bathroom. Maybe it's just a little cruel, but I love that I have that affect on him. I quietly chuckled to myself about my slightly devilish ways before succumbing to the temptation of sleep.
I woke up a few hours later noticing that the house was unusually quiet. I couldn't hear Emmett's video games or Edward's admonishments or even Jasper's amused laughter. I rolled over in bed and noticed that there was a note left on Jaspers' pillow.
Ali, your brothers and I went Christmas shopping at the mall. Call me when you wake up. Love you, Jasper
They went Christmas shopping without us? I had a pretty good idea as to why they would do such a thing like that; they needed to get our gifts. That was when it dawned on me that we needed to get gifts for them as well. I loved to shop, but I really had no idea what to get Jasper for Christmas. I had bought a few things on Black Friday for my brothers and everyone else, but nothing for Jasper. I glanced at the clock and seeing that it was still decently early, decided that maybe Rose, Bella and I could make a trip to the mall as well. I climbed out of bed and sent a text message to Rose since Bella took forever to wake up.
Rose - Hey you want to go Christmas shopping for my brother's and Jasper with me – Ali
I started to look through my closet for something to wear while I waited for her to text me back. Just as I decided on this really cute pair of pants and a shirt my phone started vibrating indicating a text message.
Ali - yeah that sounds like a great idea, I have no idea what to get to Emmett. I'm already dressed and so I'll come by and we can take my car. See you in a few - Rose.
While I showered and got dressed, I contemplated on whether or not I should actually call Jasper before we left or not, finally deciding that we'd just surprise them. As soon as I was done fixing my hair, I heard Rose walking up the stairs; the sound of her 'fuck me' stilettos were hard to mistake. She leaned into my room and pointed to the ceiling, indicating that she was going to head upstairs and wake Bella up. Nodding, I grabbed my heels and followed her up the stairs. Waking Bella up in the morning was usually quite amusing and I couldn't wait to hear what she'd say this time.
When we entered the room Bella was all tangled up in the blankets clutching Edward's pillow. It made me giggle and wonder if she thought it was him. Chewy was curled up at the bottom of her feet and lifted his head to look at us. His gaze fell upon my shoes and I narrowed my eyes. That little devil had a shoe fetish. Rose and I both looked at each other and nodded. We went over to the bed and jumped on it with our knees causing Bella to bolt straight up into a sitting position. We both couldn't help but laugh at her. Her eyes were frantic as her hair looked very much like a haystack.
"What the hell Alice, where's Edward and why are you guys dressed like that?" She sputtered out as she attempted to rub the sleep from her eyes.
"They went Christmas shopping without us so I decided that we're going to go Christmas shopping too, and we're going to surprise them so don't even think about calling Edward." I said, as I glared at her daring her to reach for her cell phone.
"Fine, fine, fine," she muttered, slowly climbing out of bed, and reaching for the note that she'd just noticed was perched on the nightstand.
Bella, I went Christmas shopping with your brother and Emmett. I already walked Chewy before I left so you could sleep later. Love you, Edward.
"So when are we leaving?" she asked as she placed the note back down and stretched.
"As soon as you get dressed, which may take a while since your clothes are...?" Rose stopped what she ways saying and just smiled as she started to stroke Chewy's head.
"And what is wrong with my clothes?"
"Nothing, they are just comfy..." I said with a shrug. I had already learned once that Bella did not like to be dressed up like a Barbie. But I had every intention of changing that. "Let's find you something shall we." I walked over to the dresser and pulled out a decent pair of jeans and threw them at her. Her jeans really were never the problem; it was usually just her tops. I understood she liked hoodies, and sweaters and basically anything with a long sleeve even if I didn't know why. But, it made me wonder because Edward used to dress the same way when he used to do that thing to try and hide it. I wasn't going to question her though and busied myself with picking out her clothes. Finally settling on the jeans paired with a cute brown sweater, I chucked it at her. "Shower or do whatever you have to do to get ready."
Bella quickly grabbed what I'd tossed at her and stomped off to her en suite bathroom, clearly agitated that we'd woken her up. I couldn't help but laugh as she slammed the door behind her, and Rose soon joined in. Bella certainly didn't like being woken up by anyone but Edward and even he had to tread carefully from time to time.
As soon as she was done in the shower and had gotten dressed, Rose and I dragged her back down to my room to do her hair and make-up. I'm certain that we didn't achieve anything besides agitating her more, but that didn't stop us from giving her a make-over anyway. We finished up quickly and decided that we'd stop for something to eat on the way to Seattle.
We all just chatted the car ride up about useless stuff. And I loved it. I loved being able to have female friends I could talk to about things. I had such an urge to bring up my thoughts of taking a next step with Jasper in our relationship but I hesitated. I just wasn't sure if Bella would appreciate hearing that I thought that way about her brother and I didn't want to make her uncomfortable.
"Guys if I talk to you about something but can you both promise it won't leave this car?"
Rose glanced at me for a moment before turning her gaze back to the road, "Okay?"
"No seriously. Neither of you can let my brothers know this..." I warned that as I turned in my seat to look at Bella in the back and Rose to the side of me. "Seriously, and Bella please don't be upset with me."
She raised her eyebrow as she played with the scarf that hung around her neck, "Um okay?"
"So umm Rose, I guess you're the best person to ask for this advice..." I started to bite on my lip nervously. Why was I so scared? Why because I had no idea how to go about any of this. "How did you and my brother decide to start having a sexual relationship?"
"Oh..." Rose's eyes widened as I heard Bella gasp a little from the back seat, "Oh! Well umm it was tricky I mean we were a secret up until recently but we didn't rush into anything. We took it slow. I mean we kissed a lot and like he umm felt me up? And then eventually hands did things... I mean uh have you and Jasper done anything?"
I shook my head, "not besides kiss …. But in the morning when we are waking up I feel him."
Rose tried not to giggle as I turned to look at Bella staring down at her lap with her eyes bugging out, "Well umm... That happens a lot to guys in the morning. Bella does that happen to Edward?"
I turned back to look at Bella when Rose asked that question and it seemed as if her eyes were even bigger than they had been before and her face was beat red.
"I …. Ummm …. Don't make me answer that question guys."
I couldn't help but laugh, "That totally means he does!"
"If he's anything like Emmett you are going to be in for a nice surprise Bella," Rose said with a dreamy smirk on her face.
"Okay, ewww Rose, I do did not need to hear that about my brothers. Can we get back to my problem now, please?"
"I kind of want to hear if Edward has morning wood," Rose said between her laughter.
"Rose!" Bella shouted and buried her head into the back of my seat, "I really do not want to talk about this."
"Fine, fine." She rolled her eyes, "So Alice do you want to do anything with Jasper besides kissing?"
I just shrugged; "I don't know, I mean I don't really know how to go about it…" she nodded and stayed quiet for a few minutes. I figured she was in thought, "okay so you should take it slow don't rush into anything... But in the morning you could move against him, you know and maybe you can get him to feel you up?"
I heard Bella mumble in the back, "gross seriously. Why did I even get out of bed…?"
The conversation kind steered off after that but I kept thinking about Rose's advice. I knew I didn't want to rush into things, but a little knowledge that I was thinking the same things wouldn't hurt. When we got the mall we immediately started to look around for the guys. I had one idea what to get Jasper. It came to me when he forced me to watch Glory, that boy and his civil war movies. But I had to admit it was cute how into them he got.
I dragged Bella into the store that I was looking for knowing that she could probably find something in here for him as well, and made a beeline straight to the back cases. There were so many to choose from, but after 30 minutes of debating, I'd finally found the perfect one and inquired about getting it customized. Thankfully, they did have that option available. After I'd given them the information they needed and Bella had paid for her purchase, we met up with Rose in the NFL Shop across the hall.
She had already made her purchase but had to go back in an hour so the store could personalize them for the guys. I thought it was a nice idea. After we walked around a little bit we all started to get hungry so we decided to hit the food court. After not seeing them all morning I couldn't help but grin when I noticed my boyfriend and two brothers sitting in the food court. Emmett was of course scarfing down food like usual. The three of us had gotten text messages from them not long before we decided to head to the food court, but decided that we'd rather surprise them.
They didn't notice us walking up to them, and I couldn't help but smile. I quickly walked up behind Jasper and wrapped my arms around him. I wanted to laugh when he pulled away and turned around to see who it was, but when I saw him smile, I couldn't help but smile back.
"Looking for us?" I asked coyly, while glancing at Rose and Bella.
"What are you guys doing here?" Jasper asked jumping to his feet and pulling me into a quick kiss and a hug.
"Well after I got your note I called Rose and then she came over and helped me wake up Bella. That girl can sleep I tell you," I explained as I saw Bella blush and go over to sit down next to my brother, "well anyway we decided we needed to do some shopping of our own. Is that okay?"
"Of course it is," he grinned widely. "We were just getting some food. Do you guys want to join us?"
"I thought you never ask." I said with a smile and sat down next to him as Rose did the same next to Emmett. We all talked about the upcoming holidays. Steering away from questions about our Christmas shopping. I was excited for tonight; we were going to get a Christmas tree and decorate it. I always had fun doing it in the past when Carlisle and Esme brought us into their home but now it was different; it was going to be even better.
We finished lunch in record time so that we could split up and finish shopping. I had a few more ideas on what I wanted to get Jasper and the others and I wanted to get it done as quickly as possible. I usually enjoyed spending all day in the mall shopping, but the second we split up into our two separate groups, I desperately missed Jasper and wanted to get back home with him. A couple hours later, we were sufficiently weighed down with a plethora of shopping bags and on our way out the door.
The car ride was comfortably quiet on the way home, besides the music that played in the background. We all seemed to be lost in our own thoughts. I just wanted to get home and jump into Jasper's arms. I was excited to go get the Christmas tree, but I always wanted alone time with Jasper. Not really to do anything sexual, just to cuddle and watch a movie. As much as I loved our friends, I liked alone time and I was pretty sure they did as well. Especially Edward and Bella, they always loved to just spend time reading and holding each other.
When we got home and had sufficiently hidden all the gifts we'd purchased, we went back downstairs where the boys were watching TV and decided to turn on a movie to kill time waiting for Esme and Carlisle to get home. I immediately curled up on the couch next to Jasper.
"I am so excited to get the tree, are you?" I whispered into his ear. He nodded and wrapped his arms around me before giving me a kiss on his forehead.
"More than you'll ever know," he whispered back while nuzzling the side of my face, "I love you Alice Cullen."
I couldn't deny the butterflies I felt in my stomach every time he spoke those words. I never would have thought I'd be this happy after everything me and my brothers had gone through. But here were three people that were accepting of us and cared about us and I couldn't be happier. "I love you too Jasper Swan!" I placed a kiss on his cheek and laid my head on his shoulder as we watched the gaze continued to fall over my siblings as they sat with their girlfriends. Bella and Edward sat on the floor cuddled together as they lazily played with Chewy. And then Emmett and Rose at on the other couch cuddled up under the blanket. I couldn't help but notice Emmett's hand continually move under the blanket and it caused me to shudder. "Are you cold sweetie?" Jasper asked noticing my movement.
I bit my bottom lip and nodded, "A little..." I didn't really want to bring any unneeded attention to my brother and Rose. I mean it was a little awkward, hell it was really awkward. But I knew that if I was at that point with Jasper it probably be really hard for me to keep my hands off of him. Yet at the same time I knew Emmett and Edward would kill him.
As the sun began to set, we all went up to our rooms to bundle up for the outdoor adventure that awaited us. I couldn't help but watch Jasper as he changed his shirt. The boy had a beautiful body and I suddenly just felt like running my hands over his chest and abs. I quickly turned away to finish gathering my coat and walked into the bathroom. I needed to talk to Rose again, ASAP!
And that would probably be a lot easier to do without Bella around. I did not want to embarrass her anymore with my thoughts about her brother. We had decided to take two cars, since there was no way we were all going to comfortably fit in Carlisle's car. It ended up turning into a debate because Bella wanted to bring Chewy and Jasper did not want the dog in his car.
"Bells I love you to death, but you know my car! I can't have dog hair in it or Chewy chewing on something" Jasper groaned as he had his arms wrapped around my waist. "Can't you take Edward's car?"
I couldn't help but giggle as I watched Bella's bottom lip stick out in a pout, "Rose's car is blocking it…" she was definitely pulling the puppy dog eyes next. And yes! I was right. "But I guess if you don't want us in your car…"
Jasper groaned in my ear and finally relented, "fine, Bella, you can bring Chewy but he better not ruin anything in my car."
I couldn't help giggling quietly to myself at how quickly Jasper had given in as I got into the car.
We reached the tree farm in record time and quickly split up again in search of the perfect Christmas tree. After an hour of looking at what seemed like hundreds upon hundreds of Christmas trees, we finally settled on the perfect one. It stood at about 8 feet tall and was perfectly proportioned from top to bottom. The guys quickly cut the tree down and started carrying it back to the cars and tying it onto the roof of Carlisle's car while Esme, Rose, Bella and myself went to buy us all some hot chocolate.
I figured this was the best time to talk to Rose when I noticed Bella and Emse engulfed in a conversation. I took Rose's arm and pulled her a couple of feet, "Rose I don't know what to do! When I saw Jasper take his shirt off today I uh... I uh… well you know"
She smirked, "got all hot and bothered?"
"I don't know if you could say that," I said with a blush, "but I definitely wanted to touch him... Oh that sounded way too dirty... I wanted to run my hands over his chest? God I feel like a child!"
She chuckled and draped her arm over my shoulders, "oh my little Alice do not feel like that... It's only natural when I first umm realized I wanted to take things to the next level I was confused and the only person I had to talk to was Jessica and she just told me to give the person a blow job and they'd be putty in my hands." My eyes instantly widened, "I'm not saying do that! Not yet anyway... It can be a sticky situation... Just see where things take you... Make sure you are both comfortable."
I nodded, "Okay."
"And I'm not entirely sure but I'm pretty sure that Jasper is probably on the same page as you... With not being sure what to do."
"Maybe," I replied as I stared off towards the car. "Still, how do I even bring something like that up?"
"Just let nature take its course but don't push yourself if you're not ready, okay? Promise me you won't"
I looked at her and nodded, "Yeah I promise..." we walked back over to Esme and Bella as they sipped their hot chocolate and played with Chewy.
"Did you girls have fun tonight?" Esme asked with a smile.
"Of course mom," I smiled along with Rose, "thank you so much for inviting me along Mrs. Cullen."
"Nonsense Rose you are always welcome. You and Bella make the boys so happy and I can't thank you enough for that and Alice sweetie, I'm so happy you have found Jasper." She held her arms out and we all went in and gave her a hug as we giggled. That is how the guys found out when they finished getting the tree on the car.
When we got to the house we made plans to start decorating the following evening and bid each other goodnight. I think we all wanted to be alone with each other. Jasper and I both changed into our pajamas and cuddled into bed watching some television.
Somehow, we went from watching television to him slowly kissing my neck and it felt amazing. I moved my neck to the side so he had better access and tried to hide my giggle when I felt him chuckle into my neck. We moved our bodies so we were both lying down and he was slightly hovering over me as his kisses on my neck began to become nips and gentle sucks. I couldn't help but let out a soft moan and his hand started to play with the hem of my shirt.
I pulled his face back up to mine so that I could kiss him as I wrapped my legs, tightly, around his waist. He seemed almost shocked at first but after a moment he loosened up and started to kiss me. They were full of want and desire. I brought my hands up into his hair as he slowly slid his tongue into my mouth and began to massage my tongue with his. When we finally needed to breathe he pulled his mouth away and brought it back to my neck. I knew for a fact there was going to be a mark tomorrow, and I had no care in the world. I wanted him to mark me as his own. It was almost thrilling in a way.
Just as we seemed to be getting more into it, a loud knock came at the door. We quickly pulled away from each other and I jumped out of bed and answered the door. There stood Emmett with an amused expression on his face. He pushed pass me and walked over to Jasper, "Dude I just saw the funniest thing ever! I have to show you."
Jasper groaned and fell back against the pillow, "Dude I'm in bed. Don't you think I may have wanted to go to sleep?"
Emmett raised his eyebrow suspiciously. He glanced back from Jasper to me back to Jasper before he shrugged, "Sleep is for losers. Come on!"
Begrudgingly, Jasper rolled out of bed and followed Emmett out of the room while I stayed behind and tried to calm myself down. I ended up lying in bed waiting for Jasper to come back and eventually fell asleep to thoughts of what we'd just been doing.
