Hey, im back! I just wanted to say sorry for the delay, and I hope this chapter is worth it! I have been so busy, and I will never put off writing that long ever again. Enjoy!
Jaspers POV
I watched my new love, Edward leave the room. Just the thought of us being together made me feel incredible. Like I was human again. Everything was fresh and new and I had only felt anything close to this once, when I met Alice.
Alice was going to be fine, I could tell. Her emotions were very strong and very pure it was frightening. I have never seen her loathe a relationship as much as she loathed Edward and I, but forgive my insensitivity when I say its nothing that cant be healed over time.
Alice is charming; she will surely find a new me... I tried to reassure myself, even though that thought wasn't particularly pleasant.
At the same time, I wondered what Carlisle had wanted to say to Edward that he couldn't say to me. It was probably about me, or at least us (Edward and I that is) and he didn't want my sensitive power to have an effect on the conversation.
I loved my Edward, and hopefully I will feel the same love from him. I tend to do this thing where I admire people far more than they ever admire me, and I can only hope that with my new found love that wasn't the case.
That's silly.
I convinced myself. I could literally feel that there was some mutual love between us, but there is a part, deep down inside of me that can't help but wonder if Edward is much more curious than in love. I just don't want him to come to the conclusion that this relationship is to hard, and he wants Bella back, because there is no way I will be crawling back to Alice.
Edwards POV
I tried to make myself comfortable in Carlisle's office, sitting in a big chair, and crossing my legs. I cleared my throat, signaling that he may begin.
"Edward, you and Jasper... your love may be tolerated here, but maybe not so much in the outside world." He seemed very uncomfortable.
"Yes, I know that." I stated, cocking an eyebrow.
"I know you know that," he sighed. "And the kids at school aren't as open minded as your family. You have to remember that this is a small town, and something like this could shake it up pretty easily..."
I nodded my head. I could see where this was going, as I prepared my answer to his questions in my mind.
Carlisle continued, concern dripping from his tone.
"Are you and Jasper planning to be... open about your relationship? I honestly think it would be best if you kept it quiet and not show any signs in front of the humans because if they saw you guys... you know sharing your affections they may not..."
"Carlisle,
are you saying that you want me to closet
myself?" I couldn't
believe that I was hearing this, from him of all people. I shook my
head.
"I am not going to hide my feelings for Jasper just
because some humans
might not approve."
I hadn't even noticed my voice rising, but I could feel the room shake a little bit. I calmed myself down, and let him continue.
"I'm, I'm sorry Edward, and I just thought it was in your best interest."
"Well, it isn't. Carlisle I know you meant well but that's just something I can't do. When I go back to school, I'm not going to hide anything."
"Okay... well if anything goes wrong, I would understand if you wanted to drop out in the middle of the semester." He answered curtly, showing me out of his office. I sighed.
"Thanks."
He smiled back at me when I entered Jaspers room again. "Your welcome." He said with a small smile.
Carlisle was truly a great man.
I saw Jasper sitting comfortably on the couch, flashing me a white crooked smile. He was beautiful.
This is probably what Bella used to feel whenever she saw me walk into a room, I thought to myself. I sat down beside him, folding my arms around his waist.
"When we go back to school, we aren't going to let anyone bother us, are we?" I said quietly.
"No." He smiled at me and smoothed his hair out.
He laughed silkily.
"So what about that wrestling match?" He thought as he pulled me on top of him.
Okay, so that's it! I really do hope it was worth it, and I promise the next chapter is really really good! Reviews are appreciated!
