We was driving down this very quiet road. There was no other car on the road other than ours. We stopped at the crossing to let a young woman and her baby cross safely. I was about to continue up the road when Jasper put his hand on mine and told me to stop.
"Listen," he said "before we go any further I just want to thank you"
"Oh you don't have to"
"Yes, yes I do. Never in my life could I have even dreamed about meeting someone who would care about me this much, well aside from my sister. I never thought id have to go through life without her but things change. I mean I've dealt with it up until now but just when things got too rough I come across you. And I don't know what it is but you and your family are like.. I don't know. You're amazing people, very different to everyone else I know. But anyway I just wanted to say thank you for everything you're doing for me. Especially since you barely know me and if I was in your shoes I can honestly say im not sure id do the same thing. I think that's why I appreciate this so much, not many people would be doing this right now." he then looked at his feet.
I sat there in silence. I've never met such a sweet, charming boy in my whole life. Who did his mother think she was treating him like dirt. Infact who did anyone who had given this boy a tough time think they was. I don't care how little ive known him for I know deep down that this boy wouldn't hurt a fly. I suddenly got very angry. Gosh humans could be so cruel. I was about to say something, tell Jasper that he wouldn't have to worry about going back to that place after this was over, and that after he came out of hospital he could come live with us, but I was cut off by an horrific screeching sound and then a loud thud.
I was thrown from my seat a little and landed on top of where Jasper should have been. But he wasn't there. I turned around to see what had happened. Another car had rammed into the back of us and sent Jasper flying out through the windscreen. 'Oh my god' I thought 'No, this cant be happening.' I opened the car door and ran to Jasper who was lying helplessly unconscious on the road. He had blood all over his face and the back of his head where he had landed very hard. His chest was still slowly moving up and down and I could hear the faintest of heartbeats. Before I did anything to him I quickly ran to the car who had crashed into us. But I heard nothing. No heart beat. Nothing but a man with his head on the steering wheel and a bottle of vodka on smashed on the dashboard. 'Damn humans' I thought. I couldn't understand why some people did this. Even when I was human I couldn't understand why people did this. Anyway no time for that now. I ran to Jasper who was now not breathing at all and his heart was even slower and fainter. We were miles from any hospital and no one was around to help. I knew what I had to do. There was only one thing for it. But could I do it? Could I damn him to this life for all eternity? But I had no time to think. All I knew was that I had a strange connection with this boy and he had one with me. So I did it. I leant in and sunk my teeth into his neck releasing the venom into his blood flow. I then did it again closer to his heart. I stopped and looked at him for a few minutes before I saw the first flinch of pain in his face. It was going to be a long three days for him, for all of us. And when he finally awoke I'd have a lot of explaining to do and he'd have a lot of learning to do. But he was one of us now. He was a Cullen. I took him in my arms and carried him home, knowing in my non-existent heart I had made the right decision.
