I change my mind I decided to work during my Vacation so I'm back. Remember to review and be nice. I do not own any of the twilight characters. I only own my plot and characters

Chapter 22

Jasper's POV

I stand to go after Scar, but Jake Stops me. "Jasper let me go after her, please."

I glare at him, but I sit back down, giving him my answer. I watch him run off after her. While I wait for their return, I try everything I can to keep my mind off what they could be doing. I hate the fact that they are together. I know that Jake is also her mate, but that doesn't stop me from hating the whole damn situation. I mean come on I am her true mate, her real soul mate not him he was just a damn bribe to appease her parents.

In the end no matter the why, he's still her mate. I either have to live with it or be without her. And I be dammed if I live without her!

I do my best to focus on something else. The conversations going on around me, the sound of the waves rushing in, or the crackling of the wood as it burns to ash in the fire, that blazes in front of me. None of it works though. My mind keeps conjuring up images of what Jake could be doing to my Scarlet. If I don't get my mind off this I'm gonna go crazy!

I pull out my phone, and start going threw my songs, that Scar put on here. I want to listen to the damn song she chose for my ring tone . She done this to all of our phones. Each one of us have a different song as a ring tone representing her and how she feels about us. Mine's "Unchained Melody" by the Righteous Brothers. She told me she chose this song, because not even time or death could stop our love.

I didn't really understand, till I listen to the whole damn thing. Now it's my favorite song, because it's true. Time goes by so slow, that it's hard to fathom that our love made it threw time and death. Jake's song is "She Drives Me Crazy" By The Fine Young Cannibals. I laughed when I heard that, cause that could apply to the both of us, but it works best for him. I'm quietly listening to our song.,when Peter comes over and sits down.

"Ya okay Jazz?"

"No Peter I'm not, I hate knowin' that Jacob fuckin' Black is out there doing god only knows what, with MY MATE!"

"Jasper man you can't keep doin' this shit, he is her mate too!" I go to speak, but he puts his hand up.

"I don't give a horses arse, if yer her true mate and he's just a baby maker sent by god and fate to appease her parents! Jacob Black is her mate also! So get off yer fuckin' high horse and except it, or yer gonna lose her!"

I growl at him "I'm not gonna lose her, she loves me more, she'd never pick that damn dog over me!" He looks me in the eyes and says threw gritted teeth.

"Scar would not have to chose, cause I'd take her away from here and you before I'd let that happen. I would never allow her to go threw somethin' like that, I was born to protect and love her and I'll be damned if I let you hurt her! I know what happens if ya die and don't want that to happen but I'd rather see her leave this earth, than to be hurt by ya. Her mate, my bother I don't really care, I'll see ya dead before you or Jacob cause her pain!" I grab him by the collar, about to put my fist threw his face when.

"Daddy's hands were soft and kind when I was crying, Daddy's hands were hard as steel when I done wrong"

That's Scarlet's ring tone for Carlisle, why is she callin' him? I drop Peter and turn my attention to Carlisle, just as he puts the phone to his ear.

"Hello sweetheart."

"DADDY COME HOME NOW!, JACOB'S BEEN SHOT!"

I run for home as fast as my feet will carry me. I can hear others behind me. When the house comes into view, I don't slow up. I jump thru our bedrooms open window. I land just as Carlisle bursts thru the bedroom door screaming her name

"SCARLET!" Damn that fucker's faster than I thought, guess when it comes to his baby girl he can really move.

Carlisle moves for Jacob as I go for Scar, she's laying across Jacob covered in blood. I gather her in my arms and begin to check her for injuries. I'm relieved to find she has none, that the blood belongs to Jake. I try to wake her, but with no effect.

"Carlisle she won't wake up!" He looks at me then to some of the others that have now arrived.

"Edward, Bella help Jasper! Esme you and Rose get over here and help me!" Edward rushes over to us with Bella right behind.

"Jasper what happened!"

"I don't know, I checked her for injuries she doesn't have any that I can see, but she won't wake up!"

"Come on, we need to lay her down so I can check her better!"

"Not in here she doesn't need to wake up and see all this blood, lets take her to the guest room."

I make my way to the guest room, I lay down on the bed and lay her beside me. "Jasper your going to have to move, I can't check her with you practaly laying on her!" I let out a low growl.

"Oh keep quite and move out of the way!" Bella growls out. I glare at her, but she stands her ground

"MOVE!" I get off the bed, but refuse to let go of her hand. I watch while Edward checks her from head to toe. Well mostly, a few areas I let him know to over look.

"Jasper I have checked and done everything I can think of and I can not find anything physically wrong with her."

"Why doesn't she wake up then?"

"I don't know, if she had just fainted she would have been awake by now."

"I know that Edward!" I fall to my knees and lay my head on her hand.

"Baby, please wake up, you got to please!" I'm crying and blubbering like a baby. I crawl onto the bed and wrap myself around her.

"Please baby, please wake up!" I look up at Edward.

"Please go get Carlisle!"

"Okay, Jazz." A few minutes later he comes back with Carlisle. Edward turns to him.

"I've done everything I can, but can't find anything wrong with her."

Carlisle comes over and checks her over. "He's right Jasper there's nothing physically wrong."

"Then what is wrong!" He studies her some more

"Jasper I believe she's connected to Jacob."

"What in the hell does that mean?"

"The answer to that is simple." I turn to the new voice that has entered the room.

"Well, Peter please tell us then!" He moves forward.

"Until Jacob wakes up she will remain this way, she's healin' him."

"Of course!" We snap our heads toward Carlisle

"Uh, sorry It's just, it makes sense now."

"What makes sense!" I growl out.

"How Jacob's still alive, by all medical standards he should be dead, the bullet went straight thru his heart, but he's stabilized and has begun to heal."

"Will this affect her in anyway, other than the whole sleepin' thing?"

"No, she'll be fine as soon as Jacob wakes up."

"Thanks, Peter."

"No problem, Jazz I think I'll go check on Jake, see if he's makin' any progress."

Edward, Bella and Carlisle follow Peter out of the room leaving me with Scar. I lay here beside my mate wishing that damn wolf would hurry up and wake so my mate would wake up too. I must have nodded off, because the next thing I know I hear yelling coming from our room. I gently unwrap myself from Scar and make my way to the room. I open the door and find Rose pinning Bella up in the corner.

"What tha hell is going on in here?!" Rose looks at me.

"I found Bella curled up next to Jacob, when I asked why she said Scar didn't deserve him that he belonged with her. I yelled at her, asking what about Edward, she said she loves Edward very much, but she chose the wrong one."

"Tell me it isn't true." I turn and Edward is standing right behind me.

I move and let him pass. He walks over to where she is being pinned by Rose. "Tell me that Rose is lying Bella."

She looks up at him. "I'm sorry Edward it's true, I love you I do, but seeing Jake laying here on deaths bed I realize I made the wrong choice. I should have picked Jacob."

"Well Bella it doesn't matter now he belongs to Scarlet, plus he would never be with one of us and you know this."

She turns to me. "You're wrong Jasper, Jake has been in love with me since we were kids, and his love for me only got stronger has we grew older. All I have to do is tell Jake that I made a mistake and I want us to have a chance. His love for me will cause him to look past what I've become and we can build our lives together."

Rose and I look at each other and burst out laughing. Rose catches her breath and says

"Is that what you really think, you're delusional if you do, there's no way in hell Jacob would ever let go of Scarlet."

"Edward, I think it's best if you take Bella out of here before Scarlet and Jacob wake up. Scar might not be to happy with Bella's little confession." I say to him. He takes hold of Bella's hand.

"Lets go love."

"No, I need to stay with Jake."

"NO, we're leaving now!" He pulls her from the room.

"Rose I'm goin' back to Scar."

"Okay, Jazz."

When I get back to Scar I curl up beside her. "Darlin' if you can hear me please wake up."

I wait hoping she will, but I know she won't not till Jake does. I bury my face in her neck and begin to feel sleep take me over. As I drift off, I wish for my Scar to be awake when I open my eyes.
