Twilight Saga-Died, Reunion, Betrayed

Chapter 3, Promise Ring

J-POV (Jasper Whitlock/Hale's Point of View)

I stared, shocked after the girl who sprinted into the forest. Then curiously, make my way over to where she threw something onto the ground. I gaze down and see a silver band (ring) on the ground. I carefully pick it up and twirl it in my hand. Alice comes up behind me and circles her little arms around my waist. I smile down at her then switch my gaze back to the ring in my hand.

"Son, what do you have there?" Carlisle questions, making his way over to Alice and I.

I shrug and keep twirling the ring in my hand. My family glides over to us and gaze curiously at the band in my hand. The ring has a delicate little thing and it still looks brand new. Vines and flowers circle around the band in gold. It's truly beautiful, just as much as the women who owned it. I'm not saying I like her like THAT. But anybody could see she was gorgeous, more so than Rose.

"Jasper, may I see it?" Carlisle asks.

I nod and hand him the ring. He looks it over in his hand, his wife, Esme looking over his shoulder at it.

"It is sure a little beautiful band. Don't you think Carlisle?" Esme questions.

He nods at the same time I do. "Yes it is hon-oh look here. It has an engraving on it. Here I'll read it out loud," he says. "To my best friend, Isabella Marie Swan."

I stiffen. It can't be. It can't be. I heard she died a long time ago. I shake my head rapidly. Oh god! If it is her, I've made a big mistake.

"Jasper?" Alice says. "Are you alright?"

I stop my frantic head shaking and gaze down at her. I try to smile, but it's more like a grimace.

I sigh. "No Al, I'm not. I just lost my best friend."

Everyone stares at me with shock and confusion.

"What do you mean?" Rose demands.

"I-well, that girl," I point toward the forest. "who just ran into the woods was Isabella Marie Swan."

Everyone's facial expressions become shock stricken.

"But-but, how do you know that?" Alice stutters.

I sigh again. "Because I gave her that ring a long time ago. A week before I went to war."

Their eyes widen. I smile sadly. Carlisle hands me back the ring. I take it from him and fist it into my right hand.

"Oh, hon, I'm so sorry," Esme says.

I look to the spot where Bella disappeared and make my mind up. "I'll be back." With saying that, I zoom into the forest, hoping to catch her before it's too late.

B-POV

I run further and further, tears still streaking down my face and sobs racking my body. Soon, I couldn't take it anymore. I collapse on the ground and rain starts pouring down from the sky. I lay there, lifeless, hoping to die right here, right now.

Sorry if it didn't explain that much. I know you want to know what the promise ring was for. I'll tell you soon. I can't promise you it'll be in the next chapter, because it might not be. But anyways, I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Please don't forget to review or message me. THANKS! Merry Meet, Merry Part, Merry Meet Again. :)

Fly On,
