Disclaimer: Twilight and its characters are not mine…I wish it was but it's not. I mean no harm; I am just playing in Stephenie Meyer's world. I especially like to play with Jasper and Emmett.

I also want to thank my beta B. Andd. She makes sure that what I write makes sense and flows nicely. Thank you for all your hard work. We both worked really hard on this chapter. She has posted her own story and I really recommend it, Chasing Down Ghosts. Alice's sister, Cynthia, tells you about Alice before her change.

Lastly, next chapter is the big Karaoke night is next. If you have requests for songs, just let me know in review or PM.

Bella POV

Jasper was being so attentive today; I was so not used to this. I have always been the plain, shy girl; people didn't normally pay attention to me. It seems, though, that has all changed since I moved here. I have friends and a boyfriend and I have to say that I am glad I decided to move to Forks.

I was pulled from my musings by Rose, "Hello, Bella," she said softly, sitting next to me.

"Hello, Rose," I replied.

"I think that we got off on the wrong foot last night and I just wanted to clear the air."

"Yea, I guess that we did. You do know that I want nothing to do with Emmett, beyond a friendship, right?"

"I do know that, I really do, but sometimes I am just a bitch and I don't deal well with new people."

"Well, I will keep that in mind, Rose, but the way I see it our boyfriends are best friends and we will have to spend a lot of time together. So, let's start fresh," I turned to face her and stuck out my hand. "Hello, I am Bella Swan and I am dating Jasper."

"Hello, I am Rosalie Hale and I am dating Emmett McCarthy," she replied with a giggle.

I started to laugh along with her. We were still laughing as the teacher called the class to order. I hoped that the two of us clearing the air would make things easier when the four of us spent time together.

Before I knew it, it was time for lunch and Jasper met me at my classroom door. "Hello, Jasper," I smiled up at him, slipping my arm through his.

"How was your class, ladies?" he asked as we headed to the cafeteria.

"It was good," Rose answered, "Bella and I reintroduced ourselves," she said with a smirk.

Jasper raised his eyebrow and glanced at both of us, "Um, ok, didn't we cover that the other day?"

Rose and I looked at his confused face and burst out laughing, "We decided to try a fresh start because things were a little tense last night."

"Well, I guess that is good," he said, shaking his head. We reached the cafeteria and grabbed our lunches, before making our way to the table that Jasper and Rose normally sit at. Emmett came over not long after we sat down, with Lauren Mallory following close behind him.

"Hey, Rose," Emmett said, sitting down next to Rose and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

Lauren sat down as close as she could to Jasper, "Hello, love," she purred into his ear.

"Lauren," he replied curtly and moved closer to me. "I would like for you to meet my girlfriend, Bella," he wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

"So it is true," she glared at me, "I thought that was just a rumor."

"You knew that, or at least, thought that he was taken and you still slithered up to this table trying to catch his eye?" Rose sneered at her.

"Well, yea, I had to find out if it was true or not."

"How, by being a slut?" Rose huffed."

"Rose, its fine, not everyone believes in rumors or in class," I said gently. "Lauren, Jasper and I are dating I would appreciate it if you leave him alone."

Lauren huffed and left the table. Jasper wrapped his arm around me, "You handled that very well, Bella."

"Well, I can't say that I blame her," I said.

"What do you mean?" Rose asked, quirking her eyebrow up.

"Well, if I was her I would want a piece of Jasper too," I replied with a smirk.

Emmett reached across the table and pinched Jasper's hand, "What in the world are you doing?" Jasper asked him while moving his hand away.

"Well I wanted a little piece of Jasper too," he replied, wiggling his eyebrows, "but I just can't get it off." The table behind us started to crack up.

"Emmett, I am sorry that you are having issues getting it off," Jasper laughed out just as the bell rang for the end of lunch.

Emmett huffed as he got up, "You guys are not funny," he mumbled as he walked away. We all followed him out of the lunch room.

The rest of the week passed quickly, Jasper and I were continuing to grow closer. I was also becoming good friends with a whole new group of people. I honestly couldn't tell you which I was happier about. Jasper is great, don't get me wrong, but because I have never had a lot of friends before I am so excited that I now have a group of friends and we are all growing closer.

Jasper and I were getting together every night after his baseball practice to study. It really was great to have someone, who took it as seriously as I did, to study with. However, we decided to take the night off because we didn't want to get stuck in a rut of only studying together.

My phone started beeping, letting me know that I had a new message.

Jasper: I am leaving my house now.

Bella: Sounds good, I am just about ready.

It was Friday night and we decided that we would go to Port Angeles and walk around. I finished getting ready and then headed downstairs, when I reached the bottom of the stairs there was a knock at the door.

I opened the door and all I saw was multi-colored Gerber Daisies.

"Well, hello, Gerber Daisies. Who brought you here?" I asked, laughing.

The daisies moved and Jasper's face appeared beside them, "Hey, silly girl," he laughed.

I took the flowers from him and smelled them as I step aside so that he could come in. "Thank you for the flowers, Jasper. They are beautiful," I said as I lead him into the kitchen. I put the flowers on the counter and pulled a chair in front of the refrigerator. I climbed up on the chair to grab the one and only vase Charlie has.

"Love, I am not sure that this is good idea. You on a chair with a glass vase is not a good combination," he said as he stepped to my side and placed his hands on my hips. The chair was wobbling under me as I grabbed the vase. Just then I lost my balance and started to fall backward. Jasper pulled me towards him, but our combined weight and momentum caused us both to fall. I tried to catch myself, but I had forgotten about the vase I was holding and it shattered in my hand when we hit the ground."

We carefully sat up. "Are you okay, Bella?" he asked, cradling my injured hand in his own hand.

"The only thing that hurts is my hand. Are you okay? I fell on you." I rubbed my thumb over his cheek with my uninjured hand.

He leaned into my hand, "I am fine, now let's get you fixed up." He helped me to stand without injuring either of us more. We went over to the sink and he looked at my hand with a frown, "I think that we need to call my dad. There is a lot of glass in your hand. He is home today so he should be able to come over."

"Okay. I am sorry, Jasper; I guess our date is just not going to happen tonight."

"Nothing to worry about, Bella," he led me to a chair and gently wrapped my hand in a towel. He then called his dad and explained what happened. After he got off the phone he cleaned up the glass and the blood. "Don't want you to get hurt more, now do we?" he asked with a small laugh.

"You really don't have to do all of this Jasper; I could have cleaned it up after your dad left," I said softly.

He smiled as he came to stand in front of me; he leaned down and kissed my forehead, "It really isn't a big deal. Now, where would I find a juice pitcher or something else to put the flowers in?" he asked me with a small smile.

"In the cupboard next the sink," I answered him with a smile. I stared at his nice ass when he bent down to get the pitcher.

When he stood back up he glanced at me and smirked. "Enjoy the show, Bella?" he asked with a wink, as he filled the pitcher with water and then the flowers.

I blushed at being caught staring, "Yes, I am."

Before he could say anything else the doorbell rang and he went to get it. "Hey, Carlisle, she is in the kitchen. I wrapped her hand in a towel to try and keep the blood flow under control."

"Good job, Son." They both came into the room, "Bella, my dear, we must stop meeting like this."

"Why mess with what is becoming tradition," I replied softly.

Carlisle was shaking his head as he unwrapped the towel and begin to clean up the little pieces of glass that were still in my hand. Jasper came around to sit next to me and took my uninjured hand in his rubbing his thumb across my knuckles.

"Are you looking forward to going to Karaoke tomorrow night Bella?" Carlisle asked me in an effort to distract me.

"I am, I love spending time with friends and having the chance to act silly," I answered with a smile.

Carlisle chuckled, "I can't say that Karaoke would be my cup of tea, but I understand where you are coming from. What about you Jasper, are you looking forward to it?" He asked, as he started to clean out the cuts on my hand.

"I am, you know me, Carlisle, any chance to make a fool out of myself," he answered as I gripped his hand tighter.

"I hate this part," I said as the peroxide started to bubble on my hand. Jasper tightened his hold on my hand and softly kissed my temple.

"No one likes this part. When I have to use it on Jasper he cries," Carlisle said, trying to hold in his laugh.

"Hey now, why does is it that when my family is around Bella it's always pick on Jasper day?" Jasper pouted.

"Because you make it so easy, and the pout is pretty cute, too," Bella answered with a smile.

"Well… it's not funny," he crossed his arms and pouted.

Carlisle and I were full out laughing now, "Yes, it really is, son," Carlisle managed to get out. He finished bandaging up my hand before he started to clean up.

I leaned over and kissed Jasper's cheek softly before getting up to help clean up. Once everything was cleaned up I walked with Carlisle to the door. "Thank you, Carlisle. I appreciate you coming to help me."

"Not a problem, Bella, and really we must stop meeting like this. See you later tonight. Jasper," he said with a smile.

"Thank you for coming, Carlisle," Jasper said slipping his arm around my shoulders. "I will be home later."

Carlisle nodded and headed to his car. After I shut the door, I turned to face Jasper and slipped my arms around his chest. "I am sorry I ruined our date tonight," I whispered into his chest.

He wrapped his arms around me. "You didn't ruin tonight; if anything you just make it more interesting," He answered with a smirk. "What do you say we stay in tonight and watch a movie?" he asked.

"I think that sounds like a plan," I kept my arm around his waist as we walked into the living room. We spent the rest of the night cuddled up with each other on the couch watching a movie.
