A/N: IMPORTANT!! MUST READ!!! Hey everyone! Thanks for all the reviews. I apologize for the fact that this chapter is so short, but it is the only way the next two chapters would work out. This chapter is told from Jasper's POV. I wanted to get inside his head and hope I did it good. Let me know what you think because I may write more chapters in different POVs later on. Enjoy!

Author -thinking-: Crap. Where's Kitty?

Edward: Who's Kitty?

Author -glaring-: Curse you, mind-reading vampire. -knocking on the door again- I'll get it. -opens the dorr- Kitty! You made it!!

Kitty -excited-: Where are they? Where are they?

Author: They're right over there. -pointing-

Kitty: Hey guys. You shouldn't attack her. She doesn't actually own any of the Twilight books.

Author -sarcastically-: Thanks Kitty. You're a great help.

Jasper's POV:

Bella had just asked me how I was doing and then she tripped. And of course, being Bella, she couldn't only have tripped, oh no, she had to also cut her hand.

As soon as I saw her hand hit the corner of the shelf, I stopped breathing. I was not going to nearly kill her again. Never again. I closed my eyes but still sensed everyone facing me. The only breathing done was by Bella, probably only because she need it.

I felt pain radiating off her and concentrated on that instead of the blood I knew was flowing out of her hand. That sweet, lovely, warm, delicious liquid. Just one sip wouldn't hurt her. Just one drop would be enough…..

No! No! No! I will not drink even a single drop. I will not jeopardize this family. I will NOT create the same pain I did five months ago!

But you wil… said the voice. 'The monster' as Edward calls it. You won't kill her, you will just taste. Just one little taste.

No! No! No!

Yes! Yes! Yes!

No! No!

Yes! Just one little tiny taste.

NO!!! I yelled in my head. I'm sure I was giving Edward a headache. I needed to focus on something else, anything else.

I still felt a little pain, not from me though, from Bella. I focused in that, on the pain I would cause if I were to touch Bella. Her pain and my pain mixed and mingled within me to the point I couldn't tell where it came from anymore.

This is the reason for my restraint. The reason I left the South. The reason we are 'vegetarians'. We care for the humans. We will not harm them. I will not harm them.

But it won't harm her. It won't hurt her at all.

Shut up. Stop! I am not even going to touch her.

Yes, you will. She wouldn't mind. She loves you like a brother. She wants you to be happy, and to be happy you need just one little sip.

No! I DO NOT NEED ONE LITTLE SIP! I WILL NOT TAKE ONE SIP! Sorry, Edward, I thought, after I felt a ripple of pain come from near him again.

I focused on the emotions around me. Not only the pain, but also the concern and fear radiating from everyone. I heard someone rustle, probably Bella, and then felt her pain intensify. Then I heard Alice gasp, and before I had time to think, my mind went blank.

A/N 2: Okay, now let me know what you think. Please tell me so I know whether or not to write more chapters in different POVs. Remember you can review more than once. Just to clear something up: the italics are Jasper's vampire instincts. Please review! And the more reviews the sooner I may update. Thanks.
