A/N: Ok so after that crap-tastic chapter I have decided to update (twice) tonight!!! Woot!! I don't know if these are any good, but it is explaining Jasper's situation. I'm sorry to those that want a Jasper/Bella fic, this isn't one. But I wrote one called Finding Forever which you can find on my profile if you want. Thank you all for your honesty and help. You've stuck with me, and that means a lot to me. If you can bear with two more chapters, it will start to pick up after these!

Alice, Esme, Carlisle, and Rosalie had left the next morning before Bella had woken up. They had all said their 'goodbyes' the night before, and Bella couldn't help but notice how edgy Jasper had seemed after she had went to help Alice pack. Even when he hugged Alice goodbye, there was no emotion in it. Almost as if it were an embrace between acquaintances, merely hugging to be polite. Jasper had remained quiet the rest of the night, and even the next day while he and Edward went to hunt. Emmett stayed behind to make sure Bella was okay.

"I know this isn't really any of my business, but is there anything wrong between you and Alice?" Edward asked Jasper as they rested on top of a boulder after hunting. Jasper wanted to get back home, but Edward wanted to see if he could find anything out.

"Why do you ask?" Jasper asked cautiously. He picked up a pebble and crushed it between his first finger and thumb, marveling at how easy it was to break. He looked away in disgust.

"Last night you two seemed to be on different planets," Edward shrugged, trying to be nonchalant. Because this was Jasper he was speaking to, being sneaky wouldn't work.

"Why don't you just ask whatever it is you really want to know?" Jasper sighed.

"What's going on with you and Bella?" Edward asked blatantly, shocking even himself. Jasper glared at him.

"Why do you care?" He asked evenly.

"I-" He couldn't understand why this was so difficult. He had been trying desperately to make excuses as to why he cared for her so much, and why he was so drawn to her, but he came up with nothing.

"You like her," Jasper said. Edward growled as he stood.

"No," He hissed. Jasper looked at him as if he had just proven his point.

"It explains everything you're feeling. You sometimes forget that I feel what you feel," Jasper said heatedly.

"And you sometimes forget that I can read your thoughts," Edward threw back.

"Then why are you even asking?" Jasper spat out. He turned and took off toward the house, leaving Edward shocked and very confused. Did Jasper love Bella? What about Alice? And why was Edward so jealous that Jasper might have feelings for her? She wasn't his girlfriend, he had no right.

Just then, everything hit him like a ton of bricks. Images of Bella ran through his mind from the moment he got back from Alaska until the previous night. With each memory, no matter how small, he fell harder. Edward was in love with Bella and he had no idea how he hadn't realized it before. Every look, every touch, every smile, it all took his breath away. Even though things weren't always great between them, he still was captivated by her very existence. This was definitely not good. He sank down to the boulder he was on and stayed there for quite a while, trying to think of what to do next.

~*~*~*~*~

Jasper didn't go back to the house just yet, he was so angry at himself, and at the situation. There was only one person who could make him feel better at a time like this. He blew out a sigh and reached for his phone. He closed his eyes and waited for her to answer.

"Hello?" She asked, even though she knew it was Jasper.

"Alice, there's something I need to tell you," Jasper said hesitantly. Alice prepared herself for this; almost sure that she knew what was coming. She inhaled deeply preparing for the blow.

"What it is?" She asked, trying to keep her voice even.

"I need to get away from here. There is too much going on," Jasper started.

"Jazz, you have to stay with Bella," Alice said, even though it killed her.

"I can't be around Edward. He has realized he is in love with Bella. I'm not used to his emotions. I mean, I feel everyone's emotions but I am used to theirs because I have lived with them this long. Because of Edward's absence, I feel his emotions very strongly. It's giving me the feeling that I like Bella too," Jasper explained carefully. He shuddered at the thought. Alice's stomach relaxed and she could almost feel tears behind her eyes.

"Oh Jasper," She whispered. He could feel the relief from the phone.

"You thought I loved her," He said quietly.

"You have always been so close and the way you have been feeling for the past few weeks-" She started, but Jasper cut her off.

"Darlin' you are my world, you know that. Bella and I have always been close but in a sibling way. Edward has been realizing his feelings, and you have no idea how strong they are. I'm surprised he is just now figuring it out. If he would stop trying to deny it he would probably be much happier," Jasper explained. He felt terrible that it got bad enough to have Alice question him.

"I hope he doesn't run from this," She said quietly.

"I won't let him," Jasper promised.

"Jazz, I'm sorry," Alice said. She should have never put the idea in Edward's head.

"It isn't your fault. I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner. I figured I would be able to deal with it, but his feelings are unlike anything I have felt before. It's hard," He said.

"You're strong; I know you can deal with it. We haven't been able to get to Aro yet. I will call you guys when we know more," Alice explained.

"I love you. Please don't ever forget that," Jasper whispered.

"I love you too," Alice smiled. They hung up and Alice sighed a breath of relief. They would be meeting Aro in the next few days; she hoped that it would go as well. She couldn't see his decisions and that was scaring her just as bad as the prospect of losing Jasper had.

I know, its short, and kind of a filler, but that is why I added another chapter! So review (please) and then go on to the next!
