RCA: Round fourteen, here we go! If you don't feel like reviewing then don't. I won't force you...
(Usually my A/N at the top is the same thing. It's the one at the bottom that changes.)
DISCLAIMER: I own nothing except what my twisted mind morphs and disorients of Stephanie Meyer's book. I do own my own writing, ideals and plots. What else do I own? A tee that has Jacob's face on it :) Yay! Bought a new Team Jasper shirt! Because Jasper is the shit!
POV: Jasper Whitlock
Bella sighed with her eyes shut, trying her hardest to sleep. She missed dreaming more than anything, and even though she would never tell me that she missed being human, I would know. Sometimes, being an empath sucked. Forcing to feel everyones emotions, sadness, bliss, happiness...trying to pick out your own emotions from everyone else's was tough. I didn't even know what I felt half the time because now I carried Bella's own feelings over my own constantly. I didn't mind. I would gladly carry three of her emotions if I could spend forever with her.
Emmett knocked on the door. "Dude, Carlisle and Esme are leaving to go find Peter and Charlotte. Want to say goodbye?" He asked. Bella sighed.
"That requires putting clothing on." She whispered. Emmett's emotional range minimized to embarassment. That was the only good thing about men, they could only feel one thing at a time.
"Five minutes." I answered.
"All right, hurry though." He rushed off. I focused on my Bella, who slowly opened her eyes.
"Five minutes?" She asked, her lower lip curling into a pout.
"Their leaving for...I don't even know how long. Plus, their my parents. I've got to see them off." I told her. She pulled her lip in and bit it gently, humming to herself.
"Okay. I'm wearing a dress." She said, letting the covers slip off her. She walked to the dresser and pulled undergarnments on before pulling on a tight, strapless purple dress that drifted to her knees. She was thin, I had to admit, a trait I might miss after the pregnancy was over. I shook my head and pulled on jeans and a tee, not bothering to pull shoes on. We both left the room barefoot, holding hands, and very happy. Esme wore tight jeans and a tank top, her long hair pulled into a pony tail, and pumps. She pulled a suitcase behind her, and Bree held her own backpack. My newest sister wore a denim skirt, a black tank top, and flip flops. Carlisle wore american eagle jeans, a button up shirt and tennis shoes. They looked like a family of models. Rose and Emmett said their goodbyes before excusing themselves. They didn't like goodbyes. Esme stepped forward, venom on her lashes, and kissed my cheek and Bella's. Bree shook our hands and Carlisle hugged us both. Esme and Bree pulled Bella into a girl's only hug and they were talking in hushed whispers.
"How long?" I breathed to Carlisle.
"Too long. Three months max. I didn't want the girls to come but...."
"Yeah, I get you. If it had been my family, I'd want them to stay behind. Hell, dad, I'd have gone and we could have left them here." I told him. He nodded and shook my hand tightly.
"I'll call you if we find anything." He whispered as the girls broke apart. I pulled Bella to my body, hugging her tightly as my parents and sister walked out the door. We watched them drive off and shut the front door. Bella looked up into my eyes.
"You would have left me?" She asked. I looked away, but didn't move.
"Babe, if it had meant finding my asshole of a brother's murderer, then I'd have done it." I explained. "Murdering vampires, even them, is unnacceptable. If it's human, then someone knows our secret."
"I think you mean Alice's killer." She noticed my flinch. "Aren't you over her yet?"
"Obviously if I love you." I said sourly. I hated Alice, and hearing her name roll off my lovers lips that easily only meant one thing. "You've forgiven her."
"...No...I never will."
"Then you're not over him." I pointed out.
"Obviously if I love you, I'm over him." She turned my words around. I noticed her brow knitting unhappily and her lower lip pouting. She was getting frustrated and frankly, so was I. She had taken a step back, lengthening the distance between us.
"Well, Edward-" I noticed the venom coat her eyes quickly. "-was pretty bitchy most of the time. How could you have even loved him?" I sarcastically wondered, crossing my arms. Her arms crossed too, and her eyes were cold. Was this the beginning of something bad? Maybe I should stop it here and now, and not let it grow into something bad.
"At least I wasn't sleeping with a cheater." And there she crossed the line. I growled deep in my throate, and noticed the fear turn into equal anger. Why was this happening?
"At least I didn't walk around here for all those years so sexually frustrated, masturbating in the bathroom." A tear fell down her cheek and my heart broke. I had made her cry.
"Fuck you Jasper Hale. I never want you again!" She pulled the ring off her finger and threw it down, racing up to our bedroom. I stood there, rooted to the ground. Ouch, I never imagined something like this would hurt as bad as it did. I bent over and picked the ring up. Venom fell from my own eyes, and I bit my lower lip. I felt the slap across my face before I saw who it was.
"How the hell do you say something like that to your wife?!" Rose shouted. She was angry, too. Emmett stood by me.
"Rose, it's really none of our business." Emmett whispered, earning a slap on the arm.
"Damnit it is my business! That's my sister up there!" Rose was defending Bella. She turned back to me.
"Rose, stay out of it." Emmett whispered in his deadly voice. That voice meant business. You had to follow it.
"No, Em. I can do whatever the hell I want!" She stomped her foot. "And I'm siding with Bella." She walked, actually scratch that, she stomped up the stairs and into the room Bella and I shared. I heard them whispering and crying.
"What the hell?" Emmett asked. I shrugged.
"Hormones?" I guessed. "At least Rose kept her-" And before I could even finish the sentence, something silver flew down the hallway and hit the side of Emmett's face. It was Rose's ring. "-ring."
"Nice timing, bro." He whispered. Then his voice rose to a scream. "Damn it Rosalie! Stop being so difficult!"
"Bella, come on!" I shouted with him. Nothing. Silence. I shouldn't have fought back.
"You shouldn't have fought back, dude. Just agree with them. It's what they want!" Emmett scolded me as we curled up on the couch that night. The girls had stayed in mine and Bella's room.
So, it had been five months of silence from both our wives and our parents. Nothing for five months. Emmett was sexually deprived from day two, and after a week, I followed with the need of intimacy. I needed something, anything, and I was suprised that the girls hadn't said anything. They hunted together, they shopped together, they bonded...but nothing. Emmett constantly bitched to me, and I got to the point where it was pissing me off.
"Five months, fourteen days and six hours...." He breathed.
"Why don't you count the minutes too? And the seconds? It's not creepy at all." I scacastically responded, reciving a glare. Emmett and I didn't speak much either. That night, Emmett went up to his and Rose's room to sleep. I stayed on the couch and kept my eyes on a book. I knew that sound was the sound of my wife on the stairs and I knew better than to look at her. She did something unusual, she walked to the couch and stood beside me. She wore a thin, tiny nightgown. One of the ones that I had bought her. She looked very hot, even with the fabric straining over her stomach.
"Babe...." She began. ".... I'm sorry." That's all that needed to be said. I tossed my book over the side of the couch, and pulled her on top of me, hugging her. I had missed her. Then, I noticed the smile.
"What?" I asked.
"Jaz, baby...I need something...."
"What is it, my Bella?"
"I need Little Jasper. Inside me. Right now." She used such a low voice that it took me a moment to process what she had said. Wow, sex sounded pretty good right now.... RING! RING! RING!
"Don't answer it, please, Jaz. I need you!" She begged, running her hand over half-hardened mimi-me. I was tempted to listen, but something told me to answer.
"It'll only take a moment." And I reached over and opened the phone. I heard nothing but the sound of static on the other end. "Hello? Hello?"
"Jasper!" It was Esme. She sounded scared, and my son-to-mother protective instincts kicked in.
"Mom! Esme, what's wrong?" Bella was now straddling me, looking appaled. Rose, who was sprouting a very nice bump on her midsection, was slowly making her way down the stairs with Emmett following. Noticing my face, they rushed to my side and knelt by the couch. Bella stayed on top of me.
"We're having just a little bit of trouble with the Southerners. They took Bree...but Carlisle and I are hiding out. They're hot on our trail. Here-" She passed the phone.
"You need to get the Denali down here to help. This is serious business. And I owe the girls a big apology for later, don't let me forget. You must get some allies to come and fight or else.... EEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEE!" And there was a scream, a very feminine scream. A tearing and the static came back on.
"Don't bother coming to get your family. Their a little occupied." The call cut out and I could only think of one name....
