Authors Note: Yes I know that this chapter should be from Emmetts point of view, but this kind of just hit me as I was walking from math to the computer lab. This is a Alice, Jasper, and Maria chapter, in present day. (um I know I am jumping around but you all seem to love it! And this is entirely from Alices POV)

Trials Of The Heart
Chapter Seven:
He Loves Me, He Loves You Not
Alice POV
The news of Edward and Bella's engagement was the best news any of us could receive. The worst news any of us could receive was that there was a possibility that we could have a visitor from Jaspers past. Since we have all learned our lessons since the Bella, cliff, Italy, Edward, suicide, Aro, and Volturi incident… none of them are jumping to conclusions. Um, she is most definitely coming to this house!
The doorbell rang and Carlisle was the first to reach the door… considering he had just received the mail. He opened the door and there stood this gorgeous five foot some thing brunette. She wore a flower patterned dress that was pretty much in style now a days. It went down to her knees and beneath that she wore black leggings. Her shoes were a pair of basic black slides.
"May I help you?" Carlisle asked the strange girl.
"Is there a Jasper Whitlock at this residence?" she had a slight southern drawl. Obviously she has never left the south like I had the moment I found out what I was. I went to Chicago first and then I traveled the states.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't the little whore that took my man!" she walked towards me and I took a step back up the stairs. I was greeted with a hand on my shoulder and the scent of my husband's cologne. My favorite… Armani Code.
"Why hello, Maria. What brings you back into my life a century later?"
"Oh, you know, congratulate my ex fiancée on getting married. Wish him well…" She stopped a moment and gave a look of utmost disgust. "What the hell do you think Jasper? You leave with out a word and expect me to be okay with it!"
"That was my plan! Obviously it worked. I found what I was looking for. And for the record I never loved you. You were just there!"
"Children now lets not argue. We can get along peacefully." Carlisle tried to butt in but Ms. Maria was not having it.
"Go away. This does not involve you."
"This is my family." Carlisle tried. Jasper must have shook his head for Carlisle then gave up.
"Now Maria, why find me when you know that it is over between the two of us?"
"I thought I'd try to fix things between us."
"I am a married man. I have Alice now. She was what I wanted. What I had been searching for."
-x-x-x-x-
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed. "Who the hell does she think she is?" I asked Bella. "Why does she come for him now?"
"I honestly do not know." She said quietly. "Who is she exactly?"
"She was the one who changed Jasper. Jasper has told me nothing but horror stories about this girl. She was the reason that he left. He was depressed because of her way of life. He didn't like killing humans. But he didn't know any other way to survive. Neither one of us did… until we met Carlisle."
"What we need is a strategy to getting rid of her. But how?" Rosalie said quietly. "I have never had this problem before."
"You have lived a sheltered life with Carlisle. I have lived out on the streets, and I know how hard it can be." I glanced out the window to see the two of them walking down towards the river. "I HATE HER!"
"Of course you do. She is trying to steal your Jasper." Emmett stated as he entered the room. " If she were a man I would destroy her for you. But alas, she is not."
I continued to look out the window and stare at them. That was when she looked up at me and deliberately grabbed Jaspers hand. Jasper in turn yanked it from her grasp.
"Ms. Maria must die."

Pulling
petals off a flower trying to get your way.
Keep pulling til' it
says what you want it to say.
Girl you can pick a field full of
daisies,
But he'd still be my baby.
I know you can hardly wait
til I'm away from him.
Instinctively, I know what you're
thinking,
You'll be giving him an open invitation,
But my baby
won't be taken in.
-x-x-x-x-
Now I was not about to stand for this. I took off down the stairs and I was out the back door with in seconds. I could hear Emmett calling Edward and Carlisle, warning them of a possible fight. Then I heard Bella call for Esme to come and help.
"Get your filthy human killing hands of my husband. You are nothing but a tramp!" I yelled as I approached. Jasper immediately retreated towards the house. "I have never, a century, ever gone after some one elses man! That is just wrong and indecent."
"Sorry to break your heart but you did. You took mine." She snapped.
"Jasper is my husband. He was not with you when I met him!" Edward must have read my thoughts for he held me back from going after her. "Why must you have him?"
"I love him."
"No you don't." I yelled. "Nothing you do will ever get him to be yours."
-x-x-x-x-
You
can pout your cherry lips,
Try to tempt him with a sweet kiss.
You
can flit your pretty eyes,
He ain't got his hands
tied.
Chorus:
No chains to unlock,
So free to do what
he wants.
He's into what he's got.
He loves me, he loves you
not.
No matter what you do, he's never gonna be with you.
He's
into what he's got
He loves me, he loves you not.
-x-x-x-x-
She smiled a half hearted smile and then tried to attack me. Emmett was on before she was even two feet near me. He held her back.
"He is free to do what he wants. But I can assure you, he is in love with me."
"I can change that!" she yelled.
This couldn't be happening. Why did she want him so badly.
"Your going to realize when it's too late that he no longer loves you!" she yelled. "And you can't have him! HE"S MINE!"
I wrenched my self free of Edward and I ran into the house. I was followed by Jasper who was more concerned for me. I stopped at the kitchen counter and placed my hands on top of it. Jasper came in right behind me and wrapped his arms around me and lifted me up. He carried me up to our room and sat us on the couch.
"What does she want from you?" I demanded.
"What she wanted a hundred years ago, my love, acceptance, and complete control over my soul. Which she is not going to get. I love you too much. I can't imagine life with out you. I told her when I came to from the transformation process that I did not care for her the way she did me. I just stayed because I had no where else to go."
I snuggled up closer to him. His arms tightened around me. I couldn't stand being away from him. Not for another second. Especially after what happened in Italy. When I returned from that, Jasper and I stayed in our room for a week.
-x-x-x-x-
It had been a few hours since I had last seen HER. I went down stairs and saw Edward and Bella watching a movie. Or rather having a make out fest. Edward, get a room.
"There you are my little enemy!" came a voice from behind me. I cringed when I recognized it.
-x-x-x-x-
You're
the kind of girl that is always up for do or dare.
Only want him
just because he's there.
Always looking for a new ride,
The
grass is greener on the other side.
You're the kind of girl who's
not use to hearing no,
All your lovers try to take you where you
wanna go.
It doesn't matter how hard you try, you're never gonna
get with my guy.
Doesn't matter what you do, he's never gonna be with you.
Give it your
all girl, give it all ya got.
You can take your chance at a second
hand shot.
Say what you want girl, do what you do.
He's never
gonna make it with you.
-x-x-x-x-
"I hope you understand that you are not in the presence of good company. We have only let stay long enough to be a guest. You welcome has since past and we all want you out of or lifes. Find your self another boyfriend and leave mine alone." I walked her to the door for I was thru with this. "Now good bye and good luck." And with that I slammed the door.
A/N: Okay next Thursday I will most likely update Insanity. I hope you all enjoyed this! Thank you!
