Previously:
"Peter what's going on?" I ask him.
"Not something I can share right now. Don't go to any of your properties. Go somewhere new, and least expected. Bella should have what you both need to get away."
He hung up before I could even saying anything. Fuck! What the hell is happening?
Chapter 13
BPOV
He's my mate. I kind of figured that much, but that didn't mean I wanted to deal with it now. I can't help but feel a little resentment towards him. I didn't want to discuss what was happening between us or what we were, and by him telling me this it's forced me to acknowledge it. But I have more important things to think about.
I walked up the stairs into my room. Something about Jasper changed in that field. His eyes changed from gold to red, he stood a little taller and his voice deepened. I sat on the edge of my bed. I was scared but not of him, I was scared for him when the other vampires attacked him and when the wolves attacked him too.
I didn't like this feeling I had, something bad was going to happen if we stayed in Forks. I grabbed the encrypted phone Eve got me, I should call her but then Jasper would hear. So, I decided type out a message to her instead.
Vampires in Forks, Jasper Hale killed them. I have a bad feeling; leaving tonight. Location? –Bella
I walked into my closet and grabbed two large duffel bags and started stuffing my clothes and Jasper's into them not really caring whose clothes went where. I grabbed my jeans, sweats, t-shirts and a couple of jackets I bought with Eve. I still loved Alice but her wardrobe choices just weren't for me. I grabbed Eve's package and pocketed the car keys and cell phone, and stuffed the rest in the bags. The cell phone beeped with a message.
Really wish I could meet the Major, but I know he'll keep you safe. Trust your instincts. –Eve
Major? What the hell is she talking about? Without thinking too much into it, I stuck the phone back into the pocket of my jeans and continued gathering everything I would need. Jasper appeared in my room a little while later I purposely looked in his eyes to see if I was imaging what I saw before. I was right but his eyes were a red-orange color now.
"Bella, what are you doing?" He asked gesturing towards the bags.
I tore my eyes away from him and walked pass him into the bathroom, to grab my toothbrush, and personal hygiene supplies. "We're leaving. I have a bad feeling about staying, we have to leave before Charlie gets here."
When I walked back into the room he just stared at me, as I moved back and forth packing our things. "What?!" I snapped at him after a minute. "Am I your own personal maid now too, mate or are you gonna help?" As soon as the words came out of my mouth, and the hurt look crossed his face I was ashamed. The fleeting thought that he wouldn't want to come with me passed through my mind and it hurt. I didn't want to care, I'm barely over Edward and now I have to deal with feelings for Jasper. "I'm sorry," I whispered. "If you don't want to come with me that's fine but you should leave town."
He finally moved, he walked up to me and wrapped his arms around me. I tensed but then slowly relaxed. "I'm going with you, Darlin'. I had the same idea of leaving my friend Peter called and said it was too dangerous to stay. I just expected you to fight me on it." He pulled away from me, and looked me in the eyes. "Our world is becoming even more dangerous, and I intent to protect you." He placed a sweet kiss on my forehead that made my heart jump. Our close proximity was also starting to do other things to me, and from what I could tell to him too. He leaned forward again and pecked my lips and peppered kisses along my jaw.
I stepped out of his hold, and tried to compose my self; now was not the time. "You should right Charlie a note and the dogs." He told me. I let out a sigh of relief he didn't kill the wolves. I felt relieved at the revelation because I wasn't so sure he wouldn't from the way he acted in the forest. I wrote out notes to Charlie and Jacob, telling them that I needed to get away but that I was safe and I would call when I could. I told them not to find me, but I knew both would try. I told Jacob to prepare for more vampires showing up in Forks' area and to protect Charlie for me.
"I'm done. Grab our bags and run us to the Cullen mansion." He looked at me confused but obeyed anyway. He grabbed both bags and in one hand and placed me on his back with the other.
When we arrived at the mansion, I walked straight to the garage kind of curious as to what car Eve left me. It's the Black Chevy Challenger; I loved the car it had a classics meets modern look to it.
"Where'd you get the car?"
"From a friend, in case I needed to disappear."
I threw him the keys, and sat in the passenger seat. "Hurry up! We have to leave before Charlie finds the notes."
He flashed over to the driver seat and started the car, and we were off leaving Forks, Charlie, and Jacob behind. I'll miss Charlie but I know I have to leave to keep him safe, hopefully I'll be able to see him again. A lone tear escapes my eye, I was trying so hard to stay strong, but couldn't help but mourn the loss of contact with my family, and the crippling guilt of leaving him there.
After being on the road for a while I started to nod off, I must have been asleep for a few minutes before Jasper's phone rang.
"Oh," I groaned. "How can I be so stupid?" I mumbled to myself.
"Hey Alice," he said.
A/N: Alice won't be evil in this story. Bella might not love Edward but she is still distraught by what he's done. I wanted her and Jasper's emotional relationship to progress, instinctively she knows Jasper's her mate, that's why she's able to loss control physically with him, but she hasn't let herself start to feel yet. As of right now she won't be changed until she fully accepts Jasper.
