Sup homies! Ok, important message: when school starts (the 18th for me) I won't be updating everyday, just Fri. Sat. and Sun. I might update between that time once in a while but just wanted to inform you.

Anyhoo, on with the chappie!


We all turned around and headed back inside; once again leaving the Cullen's speechless.

"Well," Lucas said as he slung an arm around my shoulder. "I thought you handled that quite well."

We we're still laughing at his joke as we headed off in different directions.

My last class was Trigonometry. I was just walking through the classroom door when the bell rang. I got my slip signed and walked to the back of the class.

Five minutes later, the door opened again and the scent hit me like a ton of bricks; Jasper was in this class too. Crap.

I got my slip signed and sat in the only available seat; next to Jasper. I swear, even I could see the waves of hostility rolling off of me.

"Hi, I'm Jasper. I'm sorry about what happened back there; when my family gets riled up, I tend to act accordingly."

I let out an unsuspecting chuck, but stopped short. "Don't worry, I know what you mean."

Maybe I could forgive Jasper. After all, he must still fell guilty about what happened all those years ago. I can feel it actually, underlining the surface.

His eyebrows rose slightly. "Really?"

"Yup," I smiled genuinely. "I'm an empath too."

"Wow," Jasper was shocked. "I've never met another one before."

"Well now you have."

There as a moment of silence. It wasn't uncomfortable or anything, just content.

"If you don't mind my asking-"

"I'm sorry about that little show back there." I interrupted, wincing slightly.
"I was having a bad morning."

"Wait, how did you-" Jasper started to ask me another question but I interrupted again.

"Know what you were going to ask? Easy, I'm a mind reader."

"How many powers do you have?" Jasper was in awe now.

"A fare few," I said off-jadishly.

"So that was you blocking us out earlier?" he asked.

"Yeah," I admitted sheepishly.

There was another pause as the teacher droned on about sin, cosine, and hypotenuse.

"Would you and your coven-" Jasper started to ask us over to the Cullen house but the bell interrupted him.

"Sure," I answered his half-spoken question as we gathered up our books and walked to the door. "I'm sure everyone wouldn't mind. And no, we don't pose any threat to your coven."

We were in the hallway then. I had to be quick about this because I could hear Alice's thoughts down the hall as she tried to catch up with me.

"We'll be over around six-ish." I said and Jasper smiled briefly.

"Cool, see you there," he waved and I sprinted at human pace to the Viper.

The others were just getting there.

"I already told them about the meeting," Ashley said as they came towards me. "Are you sure you're ready for this?"

I looked around at everyone's concerned expressions. The only person I had actually told my story to was Ash. Then she told Alex who told Elaine who told Anthony who told Lucas and then finally Vicky.

"I'll be fine, let's go." I hopped in the car. "Meet at our house in ten, we'll make definite plans then."

I was anxious to leave. The car next to me reeked of vampire, so it could only be the Cullen's.

Everyone nodded and went their separate ways.

Tonight, we meet officially.
