It killed me having to watch Jasper, my Jasper, being held back. People having to protective from himself. I was not ashamed of him of course. It was in his nature to drink blood. I was not extremely happy it was my best friend he attacked. We would have to talk about that later. But is was not ashamed. It just hurt me to watch him hurt. We're connected that way.
Esme, Rosalie, and Emmett had to escort my husband out the door. I couldn't watch after that. I should probably have went and comforted him. But I couldn't see him like that. He understood.
So me, Bella, and Carlisle were the only ones left in the room. I'm not going to say I didn't have temptation knocking at my door. But I couldn't hurt Bella. She was my best friend and she was everything to Edward. Besides who would I play human Barbie with? Maybe Renesmee will like shopping…
I stopped and looked at Edward to make sure he didn't hear that. I didn't think he did. He was to far gone. Protecting Bella. Not from Jasper anymore. Protecting her from himself. Sometimes I feel sorry for my favorite brother.
I thought I could help. I swiftly ran to my bathroom and grabbed a towel. I never really needed one of this before. I don't think Bella even noticed I left. Anyway I gave to Carlisle. He ignored it and grabbed the bottom of the table and used it as a tourniquet. Thank god he was a doctor.
Edward, I thought in my mind trying to get his attention. It worked. Please don't blame jasper. Please.
He looked back at Bella. I'm not sure if it worked or not.
"I'll get your bag," I said running to the study were his bag was kept. I heard him say the kitchen so I went in there and turned on the light to give Bella some light. Carlisle didn't need it. Didn't make a difference to us.
After a couple minutes of fixing Bella and ganging up on Edward I had to leave. I was to close for comfort. I was not one to take this big of risk let me tell you. I gave Bella an apologetic look and went out to the forest behind our house to join my siblings.
I was headed towards my husband when Edward cut me off.
"you could have seen that coming," he yelled. We it wasn't really a yell. It was more like how a maniac talks in horror movies. It kind of scared me.
"Edward, I'm sorry. I saw it to late. I would never put Bella in danger purposefully. You should know that," I added the last part with a mother sounding voice. I didn't really think he would blame me. But I guess it was my fault a little…
"I thought I knew," I spat at me. I narrowed my eyes at him. Thought I felt no anger at him. He was too much pain to be angry. It would be like losing you love and having someone just tell you off. Adding insult to injury.
"Edward. You do not talk to my wife like that," Jasper said wrapping me in his arms. I turned around and pulled his face down for a sweet kiss. I loved the feeling of kissing jasper. I wrapped him in a hug for comfort.
"I can't talk to her like that? You almost killed my Bella," Edward yelled at him. That was harsh. Edward was really pushing that anger line.
"Edward, no," my mother told Edward. He immediately stopped what he was going to say. Esme had that effect on people.
We sat in silence for a few minutes. I could tell Edward was in deep thought. He was so lucky he didn't have someone snooping around in his head. I envied him in that way. He had a dead chuckle to that.
Edward stood up and looked at me "Alice can I speak with you for a moment?" he asked. He sounded dead when he said it. Like he didn't have enough energy to even speak. Something was wrong.
I heard Jasper growl. After the little exchange earlier I didn't expect him to willingly let me talk to him. But something told me their was no harm intended. He gave Jasper a comforting smile and started running with Edward out of hearing distance.
