Not all presents

are welcomed with open arms.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Age 24

Wow, I loved her. Was it possible to love someone as much as I do, her ? It seems nearly impossible. As I watched her scurry from the room, feathers following her as she went, I couldn't hold back the unbelievable smile that came upon my face. I love her, now and forever. I have since before that picture was taken by Esme at the age of 3. I just didn't truly realize it until later. Which really was a shame to. If I had had the opportunity to be with Bella sooner than I was, I would have jumped at it in a heartbeat. But, truthfully, for a long time after the Hales' got here, I figured that Bella was going for Jasper, only because of the amazing relationship they had. But then he fell in love with Alice and, everything just fell into place. It did get messed up when Bella moved away, but my feelings never changed. I've always loved her more than anything…

"EDWARD !" Bella's scream sent me running. I didn't know what was wrong, but by the sounds of it, it was the furthest thing from good. I found Bella, kneeling on the floor just at the front door. I stepped forward to see what Bella was kneeling over. I looked, and what I saw nearly made my heart stop.

Lying on the matt in front of the door was Jasper, clearly unconscious with dried blood on his face and shirt. I was horrified. The only thing that I could hear was my heartbeat ringing in my ears. I was in complete shock. Why is this happening to us ? What did we do to deserve this ? What did Bella do to deserve to be treated in such a harsh way.

As soon as that thought ran through my mind, I immediately went into doctor mode. I moved Bella gently out of the way and got a better look at Jasper. His chest was moving up and down, so he was obviously still breathing, which was a good sign. I turned to Bella, who was still crying, and grabbed her shoulders.

"Bella, love, I need you to go inside and get me some towels, okay ? Can you do that for me ?" She took a moment to process what I had said, but nodded and got up and made her way upstairs. Once she was out of my sight, I checked Jaspers spine and neck, to make sure that nothing was broken that could cause serious paralysis. Once I was finish, and found no evidence of damage, I turned Jasper, carefully, onto his back to get a better look at the damage that had been caused. His face was pretty scratched up. He was going to have a black eye for sure, and his lip was split open. I couldn't tell if he would need stitches or not because of the blood. I moved my eyes down his body to see that his wrists had lacerations on them, almost as if he had been tied down to something by rope. I looked at his shirt and it was covered in blood. I undid the buttons to see where the blood was coming from, and I was horrified by what I saw. He had a large slash wound, across his lower stomach. It stretched from his ribs, diagonally down towards his left hip. Just by looking at it, I knew that the blade tat cut him wasn't very sharp, because the wound was jagged. But we were lucky, because it wasn't very deep. I looked carefully down the rest of his body, but that seemed to be the extent of his injuries.

"Edward…" Bella's voice came form behind me, but I barely heard it. It was laced with fear and pain. I turned around to see her standing there, with towels in her arms. She was shaking like a leaf and I felt extremely bad for her having to see her brother this way. I stood up and walked over to her. I didn't know what else to except to embrace her. I wrapped my arms around her small shaking form and tried to comfort her. It seemed to work a little bit because her breathing wasn't so erratic when I pulled away from her.

"Bella, listen to me okay ? I need you to go to the phone and call Carlisle. Tell him to meet us at the hospital. Then I want you to call Alice and tell her that we have Jasper with us and to also meet us at the hospital. Can you do that ?" I asked her this in a soft tone, because I knew anything more would upset her. She nodded, handed me the towels I asked for and scurried into the kitchen to use the phone.

I turned back to Jasper once she was out of sight. I used one of the towels to clean most of the blood from his face and wrists. I used the other to wrap around his stomach to stop the bleeding. I wasn't sure exactly how much blood he had lost, but it was a lot for sure. I put some pressure on the wound and nearly jumped out of my pants when I head a yelp come from directly beside me. It was Jasper. I turned to face him and moved closer to his head.

"Jasper ? Jazz can you hear me ? Grunt or something if you can hear me ?" I waited a moment, then a small grunt came from his mouth and his eyes began to flutter. I silently thanked the heavens for keeping him alive. I don't know what I would have done if this had been worse. "Jasper, buddy, you're alright now okay ? I've covered your wounds and Bella and I are going to take you to the hospital. Carlisle and Alice will be waiting for us there. Okay ?" His eyes were nearly fully open now, they held so much fear it made me want to cry.

"Tell…Bella…" I couldn't understand anything after that because his breathing went into pants. I realized it must have been the pain, especially with me putting pressure on his stomach.

"Tell Bella what ? Jasper, come on, tell Bella what ?" I didn't mean to pressure him, but if she was in danger I needed to know. After a moment I knew it was no use. He was in too much pain. I just have to hope that he'll remember after he's feeling stronger and on pain medication.

"Alice and Carlisle are on their way to the hospital. I told them we would be there in 10 minutes" Bella came up behind me and put a hand on my shoulder, a small, but much appreciated sign of comfort.

"Alright, I'm going to lift him up. I need you to go and open the back door to the Volvo. Sit in the back and I'm going to put his head in your lap, alright ?" She nodded and then we were off. I moved Jasper as quickly, but as gently as I possibly could. He let out a yelp or two in pain, but other than that, he resisted. I figured it was for Bella's sake, not his own. I slid him into the back carefully, placing his head gently in Bella's lap. I told her to keep pressure on his wound with the towel, and then shut the door to go to the drivers' seat.

Now, I drive fast normally, but I drove at monumental speeds on this night. I couldn't let my brother-in-law die. Bella was in the back, stroking Jasper's hair and whispering things to him. I couldn't hear what she was saying, nor could I tell whether Jasper heard it or not. But the point was that it was helping her to talk to him. And that's part of what matters.

As soon as we pulled in front of the ER Carlisle rushed out the doors, 3 nurses following him pushing a gurney. I jumped out of the drivers' seat and flung the back door open. As soon as Carlisle got close I told him what I knew.

"Lacerations to the wrists, possible head trauma, broken lip, possibly needing stitches, large knife wound stretching diagonally from his right lower rib to his left hip, not deep enough to cause internal injury, no sign of spinal damage." By the time I was finished, Jasper was on the gurney with a breathing mask on and already inside the hospital doors. Carlisle was in front of me, following closely behind. As they reached the doors that lead to the Emergency Rooms and OR's I knew that I had to go in alone after my brother. I turned around to see Bella right behind me. I went to her and gave her a hug and a kiss on the lips. "He's going to be okay. Carlisle and I won't let anything happen to him. Wait here for Alice. I'll see you soon. I love you." And with a final kiss on her soft lips, I fled through the doors to go and save my brother's life.

This was going to be a long night.

A/N: And there you go folks. I'm sorry it's short, but it's a lot of body as opposed to dialogue. So I hope that makes up for it.

It wasn't Jacob like everyone thought ! I hope I surprised everyone. But I can't believe nobody guessed it was Jasper ! That surprised me a lot because of the sweet moment that Jasper and Bella had last chapter.
