Chapter 26
"Come on, Bella! It'll fun." Alice chimed out as walked of the school together.
"A sleepover? Really?" Bella frowned at the thought.
"It'll just be us girls. The men are going to go mountain lion hunting." Alice replied and put her hands on her hips when we reached the vehicles. "Lori will be there."
Bella thought for a moment. "I'll have to ask Charlie about it."
"I've already asked him. So I guess you're already going to have to come." Alice gave her a playful wink.
I looked up at Jasper and saw he had a small smile on his lips. Could he be anymore handsome? The thought of Jasper being in a cowboy outfit came to mind. Okay, so that's not just handsome. That is sexy as hell.
Jasper looked over at me and raised an eyebrow. "Care to explain your mood, Darlin'?" He whispered to me.
"Um…I thought about you in a cowboy outfit." I mentioned softly.
Jasper let out a chuckle and opened the door to his car for me to get in. Alice was riding with Edward and Bella.
I got into my side and opened up the glove box. I took out my CD case and looked through my CD's. I burned a lot of songs onto CD's before I met Jasper.
I picked out my favorite mixed CD and put it in the player. He got into the driver's side and started up the car.
"Before we moved here, I lived out in the country. That's why I'm not much of a city girl." I explained when I went through the songs. "My mother and I used to listen to Shania Twain all the time when I was a kid."
"She's a great artist." Jasper added as he drove out of the parking lot.
"Thinking of you in a cowboy outfit made me in the mood for country." I laughed and then finally found the song I was looking for. "Yes!"
'Whatever You Do! Don't!' started playing through the speakers. Of course, I sang with it and even danced.
Jasper was amused the whole time. His smile never leaving his face. Sometimes he even shook his head at me.
"Deep in Denialville
Tryin' to fight the way I feel
I go jello when you smile
I start blushin' my head rushin'
If you stand too close to me
I might melt down from the heat
If ya' look my way one more time
I'm gonna go out of my mind
Whatever you do
Don't even think about it
Don't go and get me started
Don't you dare drive me crazy
Don't do that to me baby
You stop me in my tracks
My heart pumpin' to the max
I'm such a sucker for your eyes
They permanently paralyze"
I poked his cheek. "This song makes me really think of you, by the way."
"Really? How so?" He asked and looked over at me when we reached a stop light.
"Everything that this song says is true. Your smile makes my knees weak. Your eyes paralyze me. Do I need to explain the heat part?" I bit my bottom lip teasingly.
"I had no idea you were such a sucker for my smile and eyes." Jasper gave me a crooked smirk before driving again.
I started to sing the song more.
"You got my heart under attack
You give me shivers down my back
Do you have to walk the way you do?
I get weak just watchin' you."
"I give you shivers?" Jasper asked, making me stop singing.
"When you breathe on my neck…" I answered shyly. Why was this embarrassing? I noticed the song was almost over. "I want to show you a song that I am in love with and I want it to be my…our wedding song."
Jasper looked over at me for a second before looking back to the road. "Show me." His voice made me think he was actually interested in this.
I flipped through the songs until I found 'From This Moment On'. At the beginning she talks through the words. I went along with it.
"I do swear that I'll always be there
I'd give anything and everything and I will always care
Through weakness and strength, happiness and sorrow, for better or worse
I love you with every beat of my heart."
I felt him grab my hand and run a thumb over my knuckles. Was he enjoying this?
I began singing when she started singing.
"From this moment life has begun
From this moment you are the one
Right beside you is where I belong
From this moment on
From this moment I have been blessed
I live only for your happiness
And for your love I'd give my last breath
From his moment on
I give my hand to you with all my heart
Can't wait to lie my life with you, can't wait to start
You and I will never be apart
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment as long as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on
You're the reason I believe in love
And you're the answer to my prayers from up above
All we need is just the two of us
My dreams came true because of you
From this moment as love as I live
I will love you, I promise you this
There is nothing I wouldn't give
From this moment on
I will love you as long as I live
From this moment on."
I felt the tears rolling down my cheeks when the song was over.
Jasper parked into the garage of his house. He blurred out of the car and was right at my side with the door opened.
He took me in his arms and kissed me so tenderly, like it was the kiss that made him realize everything. To me anyways.
I returned the kiss just as tenderly until he broke the kiss. His eyes wondered to mine and I felt paralyzed. My heart was beating so quickly that I thought it would pop out of my chest.
"Can that be our song?" He asked me softly.
My voice was long gone. I had no other way to respond except to just nod and stare at Jasper. What made him act this way? Was it the song? Was it us?
"I love you, Lori Crowe." He said seriously. His tone made it clear that he was serious. "You're mine and only mine. I'm yours forever. All that I am, monster and what's left of my human side, is yours."
"Jasper, you are no monster." I said, taking his face in my hands.
He ran a hand down my arm and then up it to hold one hand. "You haven't fully seen Major." He muttered softly.
"Major or Jasper, you're mine. Nothing will make me afraid of you." I took his hand and placed it over my heart. "Even when this stops beating, it's yours."
I felt a tear fall from my face and saw his eyes land on where the tear landed. H=Jasper let out a sigh and took me into an embrace.
My face was on his chest, leaning into him more. This is what I love about Jasper. He can be so demanding and loving. I couldn't wait until he asked me to marry him. He knows I would say yes, but I'd still like to see him down on one knee for me.
A/N: What do you think about their song? :) Also I thought the other song fit them well too. We all know the effects Jasper has on her (and us or maybe just me). I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Let me know! :) I'll be updating either Thursday or Friday.
