A Summons and a Promise
Chapter 1
Alee's POV
"Speech"
'Thoughts'
Okay now in this chapter I and Jasper are in Seattle at the mall. We are getting me clothes and enough day to day things for me to live with the Cullens for at least a year or so. By the way this has nothing to do with the story but I just realized that I have exactly 90 stories on my alerts for when a new chapter is posted. Wow I really need a life. : P Okay enough of me babbling, on with the story

We were finally at the mall. I looked at Jasper, "Umm, do you have a credit card? 'Cause I got a good feeling that we're really going to need one."
"Yes as a matter of fact I do. But please don't tell me that you are as bad as Alice when set loose in a mall."
"Well, I'm probably not as bad as her but we are more than likely neck and neck when I have enough money. Let's go to Hot Topic first. I really need some more pairs of gloves especially if I am going to be here for a while." Jasper looked at me funnily. "Why in the world would you need gloves?"
"I am not normal in many applications of the word. I have a power kind of like Peter Petrelli on Heroes. I can receive and amplify your power if I touch your bare skin. I can also sense how content things are with life, even inanimate objects. Cats help though, (ANAB1) it's kinda like they share and distribute the burden of it. I found that out when the power started and cats all of a sudden would flock around me, even in school. It got so normal that the teachers just accepted the fact that when I would walk into class I would have three or four cats following me. I thought that it was hilarious."
"Seriously?!?"
"Yeah, why would I kid about that? Trust me though, it sucks. Imagine a life where you can't touch anything or anyone. When someone looks like they are going to touch you, you freak. You don't know if they recently suffered something depressing or if they have a power. When I signed up for karate, I told my mom that it was so I could learn to protect myself. In reality it was so that kids at school would know I could hurt them and they wouldn't want to come near me." By the time I had finished I was crying.
"Please don't make me leave, Jasper I know that I'm a freak, but, please don't throw me out on my own." He came over and hugged me.
"Don't worry, we will take care of you." He looked me over and sent a wave of calm towards me. "Thank you." I sniffled. "Don't mention it. Promise me that you'll tell Carlisle though."
"Will you come to tell him with me, like after school tommorrow?"
"Umm, yeah I guess. Why not?" He smiled at me.
"Thanks Jasper. Oh, shit, I completely forgot we need to be getting me clothes and shit!! We need to get to the Hot Topic. Come on! At the Hot Topic we got me a Skelanimals gloves, book bag, notebooks, and pencils. I took him towards the Lane Bryant, where I got clothes and a jacket. I looked up at Jasper, "Can we go to the Barnes and Noble? Please?"
"Yeah, I don't know why not."
"Cool! Let's go!" I got a bunch of anime and some books that looked interesting. Jasper looked at me and said, "Aren't we ever going to go home?"
"Well, yeah, but I kind of need food now."
"Oh. That's right I forgot that you need to eat." He looked at me. "Well, uh, what exactly do eat?"
"I kinda want Panda Express."
We ended up getting Panda take out so I could eat in the car since it was getting late. On the ride home I explained my cover story to Jasper. "Okay, I am a new child that Carlisle and Esme adopted. My parents we poisoned and it made me slightly paranoid. That's why I won't let anyone touch me. I live with you and I will only talk to a few certain people because I am naturally an introvert. The only thing that I can't figure out is what I should do if I am teased. It happened all the time in Fresno. (ANAB2)" Jasper looked at me. "If anyone teases you they will answer to all of the Cullen teens. You won't have to worry about them. When they tease you just let me know and we will make sure that they leave you alone. And don't try to pass it of like its nothing because I can sense your emotions."
"Okay," I yawned. "Go to sleep, Alee, don't worry, I'll get us home safely."
Jasper's POV
'Wow, this girl is talented. Alice sure did pick one hell of a "therapist". I don't know what it is but I want to make her feel good about herself, too. I just hope that I'll be able to. She deserves it.'

(ANAB1) I came up with that because the cat had kittens and she kept moving right by where my head is when I go to sleep. So all of a sudden they start mewling so asked them, "Do you want to be in the story, too?" then I put them in it and they quieted down. I thought that it was hilarious so kept it in the story.
(ANAB2) It does. I get teased all the time and it sucks. So if you get teased then don't worry, I feel for you.
I know I'm sorry but I think of anything else to put in this chapter. The next chapter starts in the morning with everyone trying to get me up to go to school. By the way I need to know if you want to have short chapters so you get them more often or long chapters so get more to read at a time. And as I was recently alerted, THe (ANAB) thing is slightly confusing. In case you didn't know (ANAB) stands for 'authors note at bottom' okay thats all please leave a review i would really apperciate it
