(Shelby's/My POV)
"AHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!" I heard Emmett's loud thundering laugh as Jacob tried to do another one of his wise crack jokes.
"Anyhow are we still on for our date tonight?" I asked as I turned to Jasper with a playful grin. Then we both locked gazes until we heard an awwwww then we turned towards Greyson or as I sometimes call him Gayson and he said, "Is da baby and her puppy gonna go with us to the scary movie?" He asked as he did a small pout and talked like a baby.
I replied, "Shut up! Remember last time we went to see a scary movie; you had nightmares for a week. Oh and didn't you wet…." He cut me off and everyone started cracking up. "Whatever." He said as he flushed a little.
"Ha-ha…."I said with a huge smirk as I gave Emmett a high five. The first bell rang so we all got up and put away our trays I felt Jasper's cold arm wrap around my waist, but I guess I have gotten so used to our different body temperatures that I don't flinch anymore at his cold touch. And he walked me to our next class which was honors math. The moment we started dating he got his schedule changed so we could have almost every class together. The only different one was Science, I had Ms. Sanford and he had Ms. Kolczynski.
Then we had P.E. Now I don't totally hate P.E. but I don't really like it either. But lucky for me we were practicing our volleys in volleyball and we gotta choose our partners. We were in groups of four so it was Jasper, Edward, Tessa, and me. I am fairly good at volley ball and Jasper well I think he pretends to do bad just to fit in better but I see through his act. I did do one very bad hit, "Oh CRAP! WATCH OUT MR. KENISTON!!!" I called as our volley ball flew toward our P.E. teachers head.
I winced a little as I heard a THUD! We all ran over to see if the teacher was alright and I tried to stifle a giggle as I cut through the crowd of kids to find our teacher sitting on his bottom rubbing his head with one hand and holding our ball with the other. "I'm so sorry Mr. Keniston, I swear I didn't mean to." I smiled a little and he replied by handing me the ball and standing up. "It's okay, I know you didn't purposefully knock me off my feet and too my butt." He smiled a little which made me feel better knowing I was okay still. Then I felt Jaspers arm wrap around my waist and drag me back towards our court. "Come on……" He whined like a little kid.
"Okay, okay." I said as I repositioned myself to serve again. Then he stepped up and blocked the ball with his hand. He smiled and said, "Maybe, I should do it this time." I heard laughs throughout the gym and I realized I was being watched. I saw the surprised look on jaspers face as a low growl started through my throat. Then he smiled and laughed as he served the ball almost too perfectly.
After class Jasper walked up to me and was like, "Sorry for embarrassing you, I just thought it might be a little safer…" He smirked and I couldn't help but smile back and laugh a little. As I grabbed his hand in mine I said, "its okay, it probly is better. So about tonight, should Tessa and I go to your house and we can pick everyone up or are you gonna get all the guys first then pick us up afterwards?"
"How about you two come to our house first or just you come home with us." He said as he wrapped his arm around my waist. I looked at him for a second then turned my gaze to the floor because I knew I was blushing, "But I gotta get dressed." I said then I turned my gaze back to him as he replied. "Well Alice was hoping that she could dress you."
I looked at him a little disgusted and said, "Do you mean like she wants to dress me up like a doll?" He smirked a little and said, "Come on Alice knows what I like and she has really good taste in clothes she really wants to. Please for me." His eyes grew huge and I couldn't resist anymore. "Fine..." I sighed.
He gave me a smile and dragged me out to his motorcycle, which wasn't exactly there this morning. "Uh…when did you get your motorcycle here? I was with you all day." I asked really confused. He answered simply "Carlisle."
We hoped on and I wrapped my arms around his waist tightly just in case we turned a corner to fast and I flew off. Once we got to his house he lifted me off of the back of the bike, kissed me, then set me on my feet and we walked towards the front door. I was a little nervous considering I have never met Carlisle or Esme and was totally nervous and as I got closer to the door I felt myself getting more at ease. Before he opened the door he turned to me and asked, "Are you ready?" I sighed and replied, "I don't know I think I am but I can't be totally sure." I looked down at the ground then up at him to catch the small smirk on his face before he quickly took it away and hid it with my favorite perfect smile.
Before he could even touch the door knob though Alice had already opened the door and was shoving me towards her car. "Uh…Jasper?!" I called as I was being forced into the car now. "Just go along with it, you do wanna be back in time for us to have time to go out don't you?" He asked, that's when I gave in and sat in the car and buckled myself of my own free will.
We ended up getting me a pair of black skinny jeans and a dark blue spaghetti strap with a plain white tee-shirt underneath. She was all smiles as we walked out of the store, now how about we get back so I can get your makeup and hair done. I sighed, "O.k." She just chuckled a little.
Later that evening right before the date, all the girls were over at the Cullen's and we were all in Alice's room getting ready. I slid on my pair of skinny jeans and the shirt and tank top. Then I pulled on an American Eagles jacket and was ready to go. With my hair down and straightened I couldn't seem to keep it tucked behind my hair so I brought a small hair band just in case. Then it was only a few minutes before we were supposed to leave so we all went and headed downstairs, as I got closer to the top of the stairs I could see all of the guys waiting. My heart started pounding, even though I've been with Jasper for almost 2 weeks now I always get an uneasy feeling just thinking about being around him. As I we all started down the stairs I could hear all the girls chatter and I knew all the guys eyes grew big once they saw their girlfriend come down the stairs but my eyes were locked on one person and that was, of course, Jasper.
