Jaspers POV
I looked down at Bella as the sun crept into the window. As I began to touch her face, her alarm went off sending Bella in the air. I couldn't help laughing at the image.
"And what's so funny mister?" She asked with a serious look on her beautiful face.
"You, I don't think I have ever seen anyone jump at the sound of an alarm," I said as I laughed harder as the image played again.
But then I stopped and looked at Bella. I could feel anger coming from her as she got up. "Go home Jasper, I'll drive myself to school."
I watched as she walked out of the room. I followed her. "What did I do Bella?"
She turned around with a big grin and the anger was gone, "Gotcha."
I looked at her, how she had played with her emotions like that, I was amazed. "How did you-"
"I thought of what Edward did and focused on the anger I felt when he told me. I knew I had to or you would not have believed me since you can feel my emotions," she said the smile growing wider as she spoke.
I was shocked; she was good but now it's time for payback. "You know Bella that was low, you shouldn't mess with a vampire like that, they do to tend to get mad."
Bella lost the smile and looked at my face, trying to find a hint of a joke but I wasn't budging. "Jazz, I didn't mean anything-"
"Just save it, I'll have Rose take you to school," and like that I left chuckling to myself.
As I stood by the house laughing I heard a boom. I knew Charlie had already left for work so knew it had to be Bella. Before I could hear anything else I was back in Bella's room. I found Bella on the floor, sobbing harder then I had ever seen. I was on the floor in seconds next to her lifting her face to look at me.
"Bella-"
"I'm sorry I never meant to make you mad please don't hate me."
I wrapped my arms around her and brought her to me in an embrace. "Bell's I was just joking like you, I'm so sorry I never thought you would think it was real. Oh god I'm so sorry and I don't hate you."
She pulled back and looked at me, "You don't?"
I wiped away her tears and kissed her forehead, "No dear Bella, I could never hate you, never."
She smiled and hugged me once again. We sat like that, holding each other for what seemed like forever. I looked at the clock to see we were going to be late. "Bella we got to go to school."
She pulled away and nodded leaving me on the floor as she went to go get ready. I got up and slipped out to go change and get my car. By the time I made it back Bella was outside waiting for me. I smiled as I saw her and parked.
Bella's POV
I smiled as Jasper parked. I almost lost the smile as I thought about how real the joke had felt, and how I felt when I thought he had hated me. I knew at that moment I was falling in love with Jasper, that I don't know I would survive if he hated me. I stood as he walked in front of me and hugged him.
"I'm sorry about this morning," he whispered into my hair.
"It's fine, let's just not joke like that again, okay?"
"You got it Bells."
With those words spoken we pulled apart and got in the car. We made it to school in time and went through the day with no more words passed between us. When I made it to lunch I was sad to find Jasper had left to go hunting. Rose sat and talked to me all through lunch but I wasn't focused on the conversation until I heard his name.
"What did you say, Rose?"
"Oh so Jaspers name brings you out of your daze."
"No I just snapped out of it."
"Sure let's go with that. What happened last night?"
"Nothing."
"Okay then what happened this morning."
"Nothing."
"Then what made you realize you are falling for my brother."
I choked on the liquid in my mouth, "I do not-"
Rose laughed, "Yes you do I can see it in your face at the mention of his name or when we are talking about him."
I blushed which made Rose laugh harder, I groaned, "It's not funny, Rose, its wrong."
"What is so wrong about it?"
"You know why."
"Ok but you and Edward have been broken up for five months and he fell in love with someone else in those months. Then Alice and Jasper have been over since we left Forks we all saw it even Jasper. So now what is so wrong with it?
"I don't know. But what about your family-"
"What about them, I don't care, Esme and Carlisle won't care and Emmet do you care?'
"Hell no Bella and Jasper would be awesome together."
"Thank you honey, so now that you have run out of excuses what is wrong with feeling the way you do?"
"What's so wrong is he will never love me back, ok? Don't you get it I'm not Alice; I'm not the one he loves and will love for the rest of his life, so please drop it Rose I don't need to get hurt again."
I stood and left the cafeteria before she could say anything. School was over and I knew I didn't want a ride from any of the Cullen's so I walked home. As I walked I felt the tears slip down my face as I thought about what I had said. I had time to get over Edward, not completely but the confession ended all feelings for me then. But with Jasper it's fresh and recent, he has not had time to stop loving her and with Edward gone he could always get her back.
I started to run as it began to rain. I made it to my house to find it empty. As I got in I made my way to the couch to lay down. I stared at the ceiling as I continued to cry hoping I would stop before Charlie got home. I scrambled to turn the TV on and wipe the tears away as I heard the door open and close. As I sat up Jasper rounded the corner and I laid back down.
"Jasper just go home, I want to be alone."
"Really? Well Rose said you had a bad day so I'm here until you talk to me."
I sat up and looked at him, "No I said go home, got it, that mean's leave. You're not my therapist, Jasper; you can't fix me so stop trying."
I saw the sadness pass over his face as he nodded and walked out of my house. I listened as I heard his car start and pull out before I started crying again. I walked up the stairs to my room and laid down. I was almost asleep when I felt arms around me pulling me into a hard chest.
"I'm not going to leave you Bella, understand that now. You don't have to talk to me but you do have to at least let me be here to try and make it better because I can't stand to see you like this. So please don't fight me on this. Now go back to sleep you need your rest. I'll wake you when Charlie gets home."
I turned around to look at his face. The tears had stopped and I leaned my head against his chest. Before I could tell him how I felt or try to sleep I heard the door open and closed. Before I had a chance to get up Jasper stood up and looked at me before heading downstairs. I could her Jasper talking to Charlie about how I was feeling bad and thought best to order pizza as he had ordered me to sleep. I could hear Charlie agreeing, telling him thanks and sending him home. Before I had a chance to panic that he was gone Jaspers arms were back around me and I was falling asleep. Before I slipped in to a deep sleep I heard the best thing in the world come out of Japers mouth.
"My dear Bella, I wish had the courage to tell you when you are awake how much I truly love you."
I wanted to jump up and tell him I loved him too, but I stayed where I was and fell asleep. Knowing was good enough for now.
Authors note: Well readers here is chapter three, I know it's not the best thing but it is something so tell me what you think!
