A/N: Here is the new chapter! Thanks for reading!

With Me- Sum 41

Previously…

"I'm sorry." He murmured, pulling back and allowing his eyes to drill into mine. "When I saw him with you and felt his attraction to you I just couldn't control myself. You're my mate and in that moment he was a threat."

I swallowed at the overwhelming honesty and sincerity in his voice.

"You already know I love you, not some strange vampire I barely know." I pointed out.

"Yeah well he doesn't seem to reciprocate your platonic feelings darlin'." Jasper said darkly, the feral glint returning to his eyes.

"Jasper. When I first realized he was coming I climbed up in a tree and then jumped down and tried to attack him. I seriously doubt that he really feels that way."

"You're not the empath here angel. I know what he was feeling and it wasn't anything I'm going to allow to continue." He stated, a smirk adorning his face.

I rolled my eyes and accepted that this was a disagreement I was not going to win.

"So will I be that way too when female vampires are around you?"

"Well you did throw Irina through a wall…"

"She was so rude! And she always stole you away from me!" I exclaimed defensively, shooting him a glare. "…But I wouldn't hesitate to do it again."

"That's my girl."

BELLA POV

"I don't think I've ever seen so many leeches in one place."

I turned and glared at the person who spoke.

"Sorry." He shrugged. "Force of habit."

I rolled my orange eyes and threw myself onto my bed in exasperation, landing on my back.

Jacob moved and sat at the head of the bed, his back against the headboard.

"What's wrong Bells? Being a bloodsu-…vampire not as great as it seemed?" He asked carelessly, closing his eyes. "Damn, your bed is a helluva lot more comfortable than mine; and you don't even need a bed! How is that even fair?"

"You don't even know what it's like to go through the change. And you, Jacob Black, of all people should know what I had to give up." I replied sternly, not moving from my spot on the white comforter.

He put his hand on my arm to apologize and let it rest there as the room lapsed into silence.

I was afraid that me being a vampire would completely sever my friendship with Jake; but it hadn't. I think the fact that we've been friends so long makes it easier to overcome our initial instincts as opposing creatures. Who would of thought- a vampire and werewolf best friends.

We have about one week until the Volturi arrive; according to Alice. But she's been gone for two weeks now and no one's heard a word from her. Personally, I think she hightailed it out of here once she realized that she didn't have a place here anymore.

Abruptly, there was a knock on the door before it swung open and Jasper was standing in the doorway.

I felt a small smile appear on my face as my mate walked into the room.

"Jacob I had a quick question. How many wolves are willing to participate in the stand against the Volturi?"

"My whole pack, so that's six. Add Sam's seven and you've got yourself fourteen wolves ready to kick some immortal ass." The dark haired shape shifter answered, in typical Jacob manner.

"Nice math sweetie." I commented sarcastically, patting his head.

"Sometimes I wonder why Bella's even with me." Jasper remarked good-naturedly, rolling his light colored eyes with a fake sigh and gesturing towards where my hand was on Jake's head.

I snorted at his lame joke and shoved Jacob off the bed.

"Go away I want to spend some time with my mate." I called before laughing at his horrified face as he quickly left the room.

After the door shut my eyes snapped to Jasper as he stalked closer to where I lay sprawled out on the bed.

My eyes remained locked with his blazing ones as he leaned down and stopped, leaving a mere inch between our lips.

"Do I have some more competition to worry about?" He questioned lowly, his breath washing over my face and sending a tingle down my spine.

"No one can compete." I responded simply, surprised at the breathless tone my voice took.

He trailed his nose down my neck before pressing a feather light kiss to my collarbone.

"My mate." He rumbled before moving and pressing his mouth to my shoulder.

"My angel."

He moved his face back up to mine. "My Bella."

Unable to hold back any longer, I roughly grasped the back of his head with one hand, held myself up with the other, and pressed my lips to his.

He responded immediately, fighting to take control of the kiss.

Determined, I managed to flip us over so that I was on top, and I smiled against his mouth when I heard a strangled noise leave his throat.

As my long hair formed a curtain around us a thought hit me abruptly.

"I love you." I said suddenly, realization dropping on me unexpectedly.

Jasper froze, his movement stopping instantly.

Then came my second realization; I had just said that out loud.

I opened my eyes and let them meet his.

"I love you." I repeated, this time with more strength.

Then we were flipped back over and Jasper was pulling me into embrace, his arms wrapped protectively around me.

"You must have known." I continued, my voice shaking with emotion. "I don't know how I didn't realize it before now."

"God, I love you so much darlin'." Jasper murmured, pressing a hard kiss in my hair. "I need you in a way I never thought was possible."

His words brought on a feeling of euphoria that I had never known. I knew Jasper had been with many, many women. And I didn't hold a grudge against him for that. I mean, he didn't even know me then. Hell, I probably wasn't even alive for most of them.

But his profession showed me that these feelings were as new to him as they were to me.

A knock on the door interrupted our precious moment.

My mate and I ignored it, instead choosing to continue what my impromptu confession has interrupted.

"Jasper this is serious!" Emmett called through the door urgently.

Jasper growled threateningly to his brother, refusing to move from his spot above me; which I was completely fine with.

The door burst open and my favorite brother continued speaking, uncharacteristically ignoring the position Jasper and I were in.

"The Volturi are coming."

I stared at Emmett uncomprehendingly.

We already knew this. That's why everyone was gathered here.

Seeing our lack of response he clarified. "The Volturi are coming NOW."
