A/N: I'd like to see more reviews, I know a lot of people are reading this. Or at least looking at it. I need some constructive criticism, what I can do to improve my writing, or the story itself. Thanks.

Flying-Bella

We were over the Atlantic when the turbulence began to get really bad. I began to get over more frightened than I already was, if that was even possible. I mean, the Guard was dragging me off to Italy, and this particular member could control my every move. I just wanted to sleep right now, but Victor was preventing that. Jasper had been pretending to be asleep since we left Phoenix, under Victor's command, no doubt.

It turned out that Victor had been controlling Jasper's every move from the woods not far from the Cullens' home in near the river. That phone call two days ago had been orchestrated entirely by him. It turned out that only my actions were real. So in the end, I still had no idea how Jasper felt about me, although I had begun to be hopeful about it.

I still hated myself for what I was doing to Edward and Alice. Alice was my best friend, how could I be taking everything from her? And Edward, I still meant everything to him. I was doing the same damned thing to the two people I cared about most and I couldn't do anything at this moment to make it right.

That was when it hit me; I may NEVER be able to make it right. I may not make it back from Italy. Not this time. The Volturi could kill me. They might kill me. I began to hyperventilate. Victor paid me no mind, but a few seconds later, I felt a wave of calm wash over me. Jasper must still have control of his thoughts, and so, his empathy. I began to relax. I knew he would think of a way out of this. Whether he felt the same way about me as I did about him didn't matter; he cared about me, I knew that, and we was going to try his best to get me out alive.

I calmed down, and my thoughts turned back toward my self-loathing. I knew I'd hurt Edward more than he would show anyone and at the same time, I knew he was rushing to save me; Alice would be, too. I knew I'd hurt Alice more than she COULD show. My mind was suddenly flooded with a memory from awhile back. I was, of course, kidnapped by Alice and we were having a "sleep over". Everyone but she and Jasper was going hunting; they'd went a few days earlier. We were in the spacious living room, watching some comedy Alice had decided was appropriate. I was lying on the sofa, in my pajamas, pretending to be asleep. I told Alice that she should just leave me on the sofa until she was done watching the movie. Well, as I pretended to be sleeping, I saw her and Jasper acting like a couple for once, a human couple. She climbed into his lap, and he just held her there. Something I'd never seen any vampires do before. The way they were together was just so sweet and you could see from their expressions just how much they meant to each other. I watched them for a while, before I finally did fall asleep.

Looking back on that memory, it's almost killing me to know that I'm probably tearing that apart. I leaned my head back on the seat and shut my eyes. Victor finally released his hold on me and allowed me to get some sleep. Before I fell asleep, I swear I felt a cold hand on my right take mine, but I was too far gone to be sure.

When I woke up again, we were landing. I must have been leaning on Jasper when I fell asleep because I was freezing. Victor saw me shivering and watched me with an amused expression.

"So, do you not care for the red-head at all now?" he asked in a low voice, I knew Jasper could hear. Victor wasn't controlling me right now. He wanted the truth.

"I still care, but not in the way I used to." I half mumbled. Jasper already knew all of this, of course, and probably how I felt about him by now. Darn empathy.

"And this one, how do you feel about him?" Victor's voice was still low, almost a whisper.

"Why do you care so much?" I shot at him, slightly irritated.

"I am merely curious, Isabella." he said, sounding slightly hurt. I sighed. I may as well. Jasper may as well know. I figured he knew anyway.

"I'm...pretty sure I love him." I said in just as quiet a voice as Victor's. His eyebrows shot up.

"That's surprising, I was told you felt that way for the red-head" there was real surprise in Victor's voice.

"I did. But..something changed." I was surprised to hear myself say that. I didn't really know what had changed between Edward and I that made me fall in love with Jasper. I turned my head and watched Jasper "sleep". He was smiling slightly; I guess he'd heard what I said.

"Well, come along, Isabella. We have to catch our car. We'll work out a plan to have all 4 of you escape." I stared at him in shock. He was going to HELP us?
