As Charlie's car drove up the drive way, I panicked.
"Jasper," I whispered, "What do we do?" I asked.
"Stand beside each other and wait," he suggested.
I nodded back towards him. We looked at each other, and then straight back towards the white door. I heard the keys entering the door. And then suddenly, Jasper and I we facing my father.
"What the hell are you doing here?" said Charlie, almost yelling. I felt strangely calm when I was around Jasper.
"He's from school Dad," I said.
"You're the Hale boy. Carlisle's son, right?" he asked.
"Yes, sir," Jasper said.
"Then what are you doing in my house?" he asked, softly, and I wondered if Jasper was making him calm too. I wondered how though.
"He's a friend Dad. I invited him over," I defended.
"No, he must leave now," he said.
"Oh please Dad! It would make me most grateful if you would do such a thing for me!" I said.
"Stop sounding like Shakespeare, Alice, it isn't going to work to soon," he said. Did I really sound like Shakespeare? That wasn't my goal. Must have been those 15 minutes that I actually listened in English.
"Why Charlie? Why can't I just have a life of my own?" I asked, still remaining calm for some reason. If Jasper was here, I would have run away by now.
"No, Alice, he must go now," said Charlie, "And don't you go calling me Charlie!" he added.
"Well, actually, I must head off soon," Jasper said, "I'm very sorry about this Mr Swan," and surprisingly, he kissed me quickly, and left the house. I suddenly felt very angry, and I could see that Charlie did too.
"YOU DO NOT INVITE OTHER MEN INTO THIS HOUSE! DO YOU UNDERSTAND, ALICE MARIE SWAN?" he yelled. Whenever he called me by my full name that meant trouble.
"I'm sorry, Dad. I didn't…" but he cut me off, angry rising in his face. I could see it. His face was almost purple.
"GO TO YOUR ROOM NOW ALICE!" he yelled, "I am very, VERY disappointed in you," he added.
So I went up the stairs, almost ran. He was treating me like a tiny child. Only infants got sent to their room when naughty. He must have been extremely angry for it to result like this.
For the first time since my visions, I actually wished I was a vampire, like my Jasper.
First of all, I could run from this place. In this mood, Charlie would never care about where I went.
Secondly, I would be with my Jasper for ever. He would never be in pain when around me any more, and Charlie wouldn't be able to stop us.
I decided to skip dinner. I wasn't hungry. I yelled Goodnight when I was about to go to bed, but instead of sleeping, I leaned across my window still, awaiting when he would arrive, or if he would arrive. But I could see it, Jasper in my room tonight. As I saw the light turn out from under my door, I waited another 3 minutes until I heard Charlie snore.
Just then Jasper entered my room. I sighed with relief. He ran over to me at an inhuman speed.
"Oh Jasper!" I said, to him and hugged him. His eyes were gold, even brighter then the last time I saw him.
"Hello Alice," he said, and hugged me softly back, without breathing.
"Charlie's very angry with me," I said.
"I know, I could feel it," Jasper said.
"Feel it?"
"Would you like to know why you were so calm before?" he asked
"Yeah," I said.
"Well, you know how Edward reads peoples minds? Well I can sort of manipulate people's emotions," he said calmly.
"Oh, but why is that?" he asked.
"Well, Carlisle thinks that when we got changed, something from our human life became more prominent in this life. Like I was good at making people calm and Edward was a good mind reader," he said, "I have my suspicions about you though," he added.
"You're going to… turn me into a…" but I couldn't say it.
"Well, I never said that," he said.
"But I've seen it, Jasper," I whispered, "I've seen my self as one of you for ages now. It's like you want me to join you," I said.
"Alice, of course I want to be with you forever. But what about Charlie?" he asked.
"You saw how he treated me! He wouldn't care if I was gone,"
"Yes he would, he would be most upset,"
"But I want to be with you forever, not Charlie," I said.
"I know that but…" he started, "It's dangerous, for you and Charlie," he said.
"I don't care about Charlie, Jasper, I want to be with you forever!" I said, maybe a bit too loudly. I hope Charlie didn't hear.
"He is still asleep," said Jasper.
"I guess, being a Vampire and all, you have good senses," I said.
"Yes, very good," he said. I sighed. "What Alice? Are you OK? You look very tired,"
"I'm fine. Don't you ever sleep?" I asked, "You know, like in Myths?" Jasper looked like he would have burst into laughter if we weren't sharing the house with a sleeping person.
"No," He giggled, "I don't sleep," he said.
"Oh," and I sighed again.
"Alice, I know you want to be one of us, and so do I but…" I cut him off.
"You want me to join you?" I said, astounded.
But he didn't answer me. He only looked down. I went to sit on his lap. I could tell that he was trying hard not to breathe too much, because if he did, I may not be here much longer.
"Jasper, answer me," I reminded him.
"Alice, I do want to be together forever, but…" he paused, "I don't want to rip your human life away form you," he confessed.
"Don't worry Jasper, I wouldn't miss anything!" I said, trying to convince him. It didn't work.
"You may say that now," he said, "But you would regret it later,"
"But I wouldn't Jasper,"
"Let me tell you something. Would you like a scary story?"
"Um… OK," I said.
"New born Vampires, freshly changed Vampires are bloodthirsty and crazy. You want to be like that?"
I gulped.
"It wasn't much of a story," I said.
"Answer me," he said, smiling.
"Not particularly," I said.
"But that feeling would go away, after 1 year," he said. His voice making me scared.
"I'm ready Jasper,"
"No, you're not," he said.
"Jasper, please?" I said
"Not yet,"
"Why?"
"I've already told you this,"
"I want to be with you forever Jasper! Don't you want that?" I said.
"Yes, I really want that too. You don't know how long I've been waiting for you Alice," he said.
"Well, keep me," I said.
"I can't just take you away,"
"Bite me,"
"No, I'd probably end up killing you. Let Carlisle do it later" he said.
"Why can't you do it?"
"I was raised differently to how the others were. I was raised like all Vampires are told to be," I shudder at the thought of seeing my Jasper killing poor innocent humans.
"Well, let Carlisle do it then," I said, trying to change the subject back to where it was before. "Can I meet your family tomorrow?" I asked, since it was a Saturday and there was nothing to do.
"Sure, just don't go asking everyone if you can become a Vampire, please," he said and smiled afterward. I giggled. I loved Jasper, with all of my heart. I never wanted to lose him. So I leaned forward and kissed him. His cold lips pressed onto mine, and I moulded mine around his.
"Please stay the night, Jasper," I said.
"Yes, anything for you, Alice," he said and I smiled back up at him. He held me comfortably in his arms. I needed sleep so bad, and I hope he didn't mind me sleeping on him.
"Goodnight, my Jasper," I whispered softly.
"Goodnight, my Alice," he whispered back. And then as I closed my eyes, I fell straight to sleep, and had yet another dream.
This one was different to the others though.
In this one, the sky was a dark purply colour. I could tell that it was night time because the moon was out and very clear and there was no sign of the sun, nor any clouds. The stars were also out, making the scene look beautiful. Suddenly, a mirror appeared. I walked up to the mirror, but instead of moving slowly, as soon as I thought of moving to the mirror I was there. But as I looked upon the mirror I gasped in shock. The person in the mirror was a stranger. So beautiful, but the most dominant feature of the girl was here bright, crimson eyes. I cringed, but the girl in the mirror did too. She followed my every move. I looked down at my hands, and so did the girl in the mirror. My hands looked just the same as they did in the mirror. I looked back up and started into this girl's eyes. Then suddenly, Jasper was by my side.
"Hey Alice," he said, "How do you like the new you?" he asked.
But I screamed. And that was when I woke up.
"Alice?" called Jasper calmly, sending calm down me so I felt better. "What's wrong?" he asked.
"Bad dream, I'm fine," I said.
"Charlie is awake. He's running here. I must hide," and so he ran into my closet.
Suddenly, my door opened as soon as the closet door shut.
"Alice!" Charlie yelled, "Are you alright? I heard you scream," he said.
"Just a really bad dream. I'm over it now though," I said.
"That's good," he said, and then he yawned. "Oh, it's so early, Alice. Get back to bed," he said. And then left my room.
As soon as I heard him snore again, which was 30 seconds after he had left the room, I started calling.
"Jasper?" I said.
"I'm right here," he said, and hopped out of the closet.
"I love you Jasper," I said
"I love you too Alice. But will you tell me, what was that dream about? If you don't tell me, I'll get Edward?" he said teasingly. I knew he wouldn't do that though, but why not tell him. He smiled, and I forgot to breathe for awhile.
"Well, there was this mirror and…" he stopped me.
"And you were one of us again," he said.
"Yes," and I looked down and nodded. He looked back at me.
"Alice, if you don't want to I won't…" but I cut him off.
"But I do Jasper! I really want this. And besides, it would all be over in one year!" I said. But Jasper shook his head.
"You don't get it," he said. "It never goes away Alice, it will be with you forever and ever. But the worst part is the 1 year," he said, and I nodded.
"Oh," was all I said.
"I'm sorry, did I scare you?" he said.
"No, I'm fine Jasper," I replied.
"Go back to sleep Alice," he said, "We have a big day planned tomorrow if you are going to visit my family. In fact, I better go tell them now, so that they will be ready," he said.
"No! Don't go!" I said.
"I'll be back in about 5 minutes," he said. Then he kissed me again. But it was not how I had ever imagined it. He was too soft. I kissed him back, and then he pulled away and said, "Goodnight, Alice. I'll be back soon," he said. Then kissed my forehead and jumped out the window.
