Chapter 4
Alice
"I have what?" I asked
"Hemorrhagic Fever." he repeated. We looked confused back at him. "Alice you'll need to stay here. Jasper I'll call your parents."
"I'm not leaving!" he said
"Jasper you have to go and get some rest Alice will be here in the morning." he assured him
"Alright." Jasper sighed then looked at me. "Alice if you need a single thing... anything at all if your lonley, bored or anything. Call me." I nodded
"Don't worry Jazz... i'll be fine!" I lied he nodded kissed me lightly and left.
Jasper
I ran home not worring if my parents were on they're way to get me or not. I needed to find out everything possible about this fever. I sat on my computer and googled 'Hemorrhagic Fevers' I clicked on the 1st result. The first time I read it I didn't understand anything. I reread it. One sentece stuck out to me.
'if the immune system shall fail then death will occour within ten days'
"WHAT?" I screamed Rosalie walked in the doorway.
"You know some people are trying to sleep!" she yelled
"Sorry Rose gotta run!" I said and stood up.
"Um no your staying here!" she said I ignored her and ran out of the house. My first thought was 'run!' I kept seeing thoose awful words again and again 'if the immune system shall fail then death will occour within ten days.' I kept running until I reached the hospital then ran through the doors Edward and Emmett were asleep in the loby. I ran past them straight Alice's room. Carslie was standing next to her and she was asleep.
"Jasper shouldn't you be home asleep?" he asked
"Do you know about this thing?" I asked he nodded
"I'm afraid there's no cure." he said "were trying our hardest to keep her immune system up but there's no garentee." I moved closer to her.
"I'm not typicaly allowed to do this but." he started I stared egar for more "Jasper will you stay with her tonight? Just until it's time for school, Alice won't be going of course but you still need a education." I nodded rapidly
"Yes of course! I won't leave her side all night!" I assured him he nodded and left and we were alone.
I sat down on the chair next to her and slowly fell asleep Alice woke me up.
"Jasper." she said stroking my face. "Wake up time to go to school." I opened my eyes.
"Alice please stay... alive" I struggled with the last word "until I get back from school." she looked confused.
"Jazz this is just a little desiese nothing that will kill me." she said Ir just looked at her. "Your parents are here." I stood up took one last look at her. She looked too fragile lying on the hospital bed. She didn't look like my Alice. I walked out of the hospital room.
I purposly dragged myself to class a little slower than normal. But I got there before I was tardy thankfully. I sat in the back of class until it started.
"Alright let's see!" said "it looks like Alice is tardy again..." the way she said it made me annoyed.
"No." I said she looked at me
"No?" she asked
"She's not tardy! She's absent!" I yelled looked at me confused then sighed and smiled
"Is she ditching?" she asked I stood up emidently.
"No! She's not tardy nor ditching! She's sick!" she opened her mouth to speak but I cut her off "She's not faking either! She's really sick! So sick she's in the hospital! And if her immune system fails the she'll die within ten days! She has Hemorrhagic Fever! If you don't belive me then call the hospital they'll tell you the same thing!" I had never been this mad I turned and noticed everyone was staring at me.
"Please take your seat ." she said firmly. I sat down and tried to not think.
Alice was the only thing on my mind all day. Belive it or not I had my phone in my pocket. That never happens! It buzzed in my pocket.

"Yes Mr. Jackson?" I asked counting down the minutes until I could leave.

"Umm..." I started the bell rang.
I stood up someone grabbed my shoulder I turned.
"Saved by the bell." Emmett Alice's sister said "need a ride?" I nodded
"umm sure? Going to the hospital?"i asked he nodded.
We walked to his jeep and I sat down on the passenger side.
