chapter 11: chaos

BPOV

Everything happened at once.

The table went flying through the window, Emmett could barely control the anger I saw, it was terrifying. Rosalie wasn't any better, if looks could kill, well I wouldn't want to be Edward when she got to him.

Carlisle and Esme were trying to calm Emmett down before he broke something else. Rosalie took off with Alice hot on her heels.

Then there was Jasper. He wasn't moving. Wasn't looking at anyone. I didn't have to be a fancy mind reader to know what he was thinking. I walked over to him and knelt infront of him, Emmett's screaming still echoing behind us.

Jasper looked at me and for a brief second I thought I saw fear in his eyes, and that hurt. "Jasper" I said, I took his hand in mine and made him look at me. "I don't have to be a mind reader or an empath to know what you are thinking. I know you. even when you stayed in the background before I noticed you everyday. I want you to listen to me, and listen carefully." he looked at me curiously.

I let all the love I felt for him and the family flow through my body. "Jasper what happened at the party was not your fault. Hell I would be worried if you of all people didn't react that way." he was about to say something but I stopped him.

It didn't escape my notice that everything behind us had gone quiet.

"Jasper when you smelled my blood you felt not only your own bloodlust, but the bloodlust of every single vampire in that room. your thirst was magnified 6 times more then if it was just you and me there. You let yourself be taken out. The unstoppable god of war Jasper Whitlock. You let yourself be stopped because you didn't want to hurt me. I don't know what Edward told you after that night but don't you dare listen to him. You are so much stronger then you let yourself think. And now that I am back, and one of you, I am going to make sure you never feel anything but your strongest" I felt his arms wrap around me and returned the hug immediately. "Bella you have no idea how special you really are." he said. I smiled a little. "thanks Jasper"

I didn't notice he was in the room until I heard him speak. It was a voice I wasn't ready to hear yet. "Bella?"

I turned on the spot and came face to face with the golden eyes of Edward.
