AN: Thank you to those who reviewed, glad some of you liked the gifts. Just wanted to state, yes they received and gave expensive gifts. But Jasper and Rose both had to save for months in order to afford the gifts they bought for everyone. I haven't mentioned it but Rose also has a part time job, she is a waitress at a small diner in town. For the Cullen's money come easy.
Even though last chapter has been the longest so far I figured I would post this anyways, and warning this is more of a filler than anything, before "the other shoe drops" per say, I haven't exactly decided what will happen next and if you have something you want to happen please message me.
I will possibly be posting two new twilight stories hopefully today. Please if you are interested check them out, maybe tell me which one you would rather me update after I finish this story.
As always I own nothing… Enjoy.

EPOV-
I wake up with a smile on my face as I remember what a wonderful Christmas we all shared. It was truly the best Christmas ever, I thought as I exited my room after getting dressed.
As I made my way towards the kitchen I could hear voices coming from the other side of the door.
"Oh, what about this?" I heard Rose say as I enter the kitchen.
"That's perfect dear." Esme says before turning to me. "Good morning Edward, there's fresh baked muffins on the counter."
"Thanks mom, Good morning Ali, Rose, what are you three doing?" I say as I help myself to a delicious blueberry muffin.
"Hey Edward, we're planning the wedding." Rose says answering my question. "Oh Jasper asked me to see if you could pick him up after work. I have to work this afternoon and I have the car now. Would you be ok picking him up?"
"Sure, I can do that Rose, what time?" I say as I sit at the table with my second muffin and some milk.
"He is scheduled to get off at 4:30, Thank you so much Edward. Oh, I should get going. Bye I'll see you all tonight for dinner at 6." Rose says as she rushes out the door.
"So dear what are your plans today?" Esme asks as she starts to clean off the table from the wedding stuff that was lying around.
"I was hoping to give the new equipment a tryout before picking up Jazz and hanging out until dinner I guess." I answer Esme as I place my plate and cup into the dishwasher.
Before I allowed myself the solitude of relaxing while playing the piano I decided on taking a shower so that I would be ready when it was time to pick up Jasper.
The equipment was easy enough to set up and soon I found myself playing a tune I had composed months ago that I have named Esme's Melody since she loved it so much.
The song was soft and beautiful, just like she is.
Esme is the perfect mother; she's kind but doesn't let you get away with everything. Like last week when Emmett had it in his head to slide through the mud and get home all muddy. Esme was standing at the door as he walked up and she sternly told him to get the mud off before setting foot into her house.
The memory of that drew a tear from my eye. My own mother would have dragged my into the house and beat me black and blue if I had done anything like that. This thought saddens me more as I wonder what other childhood things I had missed out on.
Without realizing it, the song I was playing changed, as if my fingers were moving on their own accord. (Billy Joel's- Goodnight my Angle, piano part only) The song was soft and slightly sad, almost as if it was calling out for its other half.
All too soon I had to stop playing and pack my equipment away, so that it wouldn't get ruined.
The time was 4:00 by the time I left the house and headed to the book store that Jasper worked at.
"Hey Edward, I'll be just a minute I just have to finish up a bit." Jasper yells as I step into the store. He was gone before I could reply so I silently took a seat and looked through one of the books that sat there.
Twilight, I just didn't understand all the hype about it. Before I could even get three pages in Jasper comes back.
"Ready to go?" he asks as he walks over to me.
"Yes love I'm ready." I say as I allow him to pull me out of the store and to my awaiting car.
We don't even make it into the car before his lips are crashing onto mine and when we pull apart we are both slightly breathless.
"Let's get out of here." He says giving me another kiss, though this time it's short.
The drive to his house is mostly silent as he tells me where to go.
"Um come in, ignore the mess." Jazz says as we make our way inside. It's a small two bedroom home I notice as we make it to his room that he obviously shared with Rose.
"I'm going to change in the bathroom, you can wait here." His voice sounded strange, almost as if he was nervous or maybe ashamed. I couldn't tell which.
I sat on the only thing in the room there was to sit on, his bed. Then I waited to Jasper to return.
JPOV-
I could feel my heart beat quicken as I changed clothes.
Edward and I were alone in my house.
When I emerged from the bathroom the sight of Edward on my bed was breathtaking.
I don't know what I was thinking as I stalked towards him slowly as I took all of him in.
"Love you look so perfect sitting there." I say as he pulls me closer to him, forcing me to straddle his legs as we fall back onto the bed, him underneath me.
I don't have time to think as he kisses me and my body takes control.
The kiss quickly deepens and I can feel his hard member grounding into mine as I push my hips down onto his and moans of pleasure escapes us both.
I'm unsure how long we stayed there, but all too soon I find myself pushed onto the floor and I hear the bathroom door slam.
It only takes me a moment to understand what had happened, something we did scared Edward and sitting on my bedroom floor I could hear him crying.
As fast as I could I jumped off of the floor and ran to the bathroom door.
"Edward?" I practically cry. "Edward, I'm sorry please, are you ok?" I was slowly starting to panic when I received no answer.
Five more minutes of begging for him to let me in, the bathroom door opens revealing Edward with red eyes and tear streaks.
"Edward?" I question resisting the urge to pull him into a hug.
"I'm sorry Jasper, I didn't mean to. But um…" Sobs began to rack his body again as I took the chance and pulled him to me.
"It's ok Edward, nothing is your fault. I knew better than that." I say as I gently rub his back as his sobs stop.
AN: I hope you liked it.
