Sorry for not publishing sooner but hopefully the next chapters are worth the wait.

Alice's POV

"Hi Jasper," I chirped nervously.

"Hello, darlin'," he greeted. His teeth shone in the moonlight and I shivered.

"Are you cold?" His voice rang with concern.

I shook my head. "No, just...never mind,"

"What's wrong? You're feeling sad, confused and scared,"

"How did you now that?"

"I…I'm just good with that sort of thing, I guess,"

"Rosalie, who is practically a complete stranger to me, wants me dead; you'd be sad, confused and scared, too,"

He chuckled and the sound seemed to warm my heart. "I wouldn't be sad or confused but I sure as hell would be scared,"

I smiled. "Why does she hate me?"

He hesitated before answering. "It's delicate; she's just looking out for her family,"

"Is she worried I'll take your fortune?"

"Fortune?"

"Well you guys must be rich, it's like you own this whole island,"

He laughed and we were silent for a few minutes. The moonlight broke through the trees. Everything seemed to get a magical brilliance and I looked at Jasper who was staring at me.

"How did you know my name?" he asked.

I sighed. "I've always been saying random things that always end up being right, I swear I'm insane or something," I joked.

"Is your memory back?"

"Bits and pieces…"

He checked his watch and it was around 12:30. I heard some barking and howling coming from the general direction of the house and fear shot through me. I felt an odd calm sweeping over me and my heart stopped accelerating.

"There's a tree house nearby, I go there for peace and quiet but you could stay there for the moment, Rosalie doesn't know where it is," Jasper suggested.

I nodded and stood up. I held out my hand, even though he towered over me and probably didn't need my help and he took it without hesitation. His hand was cold like Carlisle's and electricity shot through from his hand to mine. He looked me in the eye in surprise and pulled his hand away so that he could actually get up. He apologised and my cheeks felt like they were burning. It was a peaceful walk to the tree house and I started to wonder how far we had to go and how far we've walked.

He cleared his throat and I looked up.

"Wow…there really is a house up that tree," I gasped in wonder.

Hidden between the trees was a small house that was light blue with a light grey roof. The roof had two windows poking out of it and the windows on the house had adorable dark blue shutters. Twhite door blended well with the light blue surrounding it. There was a doorbell, funnily enough and a spiral staircase wound majestically to the top.

"I guess you can use Charlotte's Room, I'll show you it," he stated.

"Who's Charlotte?" I said, my jealousy seeping through my voice.

He chuckled quietly and I felt my cheeks redden. "She's a friend,"

We walked up the spiral staircase and into the house. The living room was small and simple with a cream couch, beige rug and glass coffee table that faced a widescreen TV. On the other side was a tall table surrounded by 4 stools that had adjustable heights. This was near a big window with fluffy white curtains. The walls and floors were white which made me worry that I would get the carpet dirty with my muddy shoes.

He led me through a corridor with a pale brown wooden floor and there were various paintings and odd things hanging from the white walls including a cowboy hat, a family photo with a shockingly good Elvis look-a-like that didn't include Bella, Renesmee and Jacob and a broken mirror that looked like a fist had punched it.

There was a small ladder and up the top was a small attic that was decorated in a fashion that made me giggle with delight. There was a fluffy white canopy bed that looked so comfortable I would happily sleep there for the rest of my life and a matching set of bedside tables with adorable table lamps. The bed was in front of a window so when the sun came up I could feel it on my skin. On the end of a bed there was a low table with a vase of white roses. On the left of the bed there was a small writing desk and a chair with an intricate pattern on the back. On the right of the bed was a white couch with 4 white pillows laid out perfectly.

"God, I feel like I'm at a hotel," I squealed as I sat on the puffy bed.

Jasper's mouth twitched and he made no move to come closer. "Goodnight Alice, I hope you're comfortable here. There's an en suite behind me and a wardrobe with some of Charlotte's old clothes."

I nodded. "Goodnight Jasper."

He went down the stairs and I relaxed in the pillows.

I woke up with a start, my dreams frightened me. I faintly remembered growling and snarling. I was pushed and carried through darkness by various people. I heard a shrill cackle and that's when I woke up.

I washed my face in the bathroom and groaned. I miss peaceful sleep. Ever since I was 15 my dreams have been about death. My memory was coming back in an increasing pace and I walked downstairs to get a glass of water for my head ache. I couldn't find a kitchen so I settled for scooping water from the tap and drinking it. As I turned on the tap I gazed out the window and saw a peculiar sight.

Jasper was crouched at the back of the tree house and he seemed to be thinking deeply. He looked frozen and as a deer ran by he lunged at it and bit into it. The tap was starting to fill with water and I watched breathlessly as he drained it of blood. He disappeared with inhuman speed.

I sat down on the couch in a daze. What just happened?

"Blood drinker," I accused suddenly. I covered my mouth after I blurted it out.

Blood drinker?

Bella's POV

Edward and I were taking a stroll through the forest when we came across a scent.

"That's Alice," we realised at the same time.

"It's like you read my mind," Edward joked.

I took off my mental shield. And I thought you were the mind reader.

Edward grinned and took my hand. We were flying through the trees, following her scent when we came across Jasper. He was feeding off a puma when Edward tensed.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

Edward's eyes were full of fury and he was moving right, as if he was trying to get a signal on a mobile phone. Jasper wiped the blood from his jaw and joined us. Edward buried his face in his palms and Jasper tried to calm him down.

"Don't you dare," Edward hissed.

I was surprised by the hostility and even more surprised when Edward punched him. It didn't hurt Jasper since he moved at the right moment but it made him angry.

"Edward, what is wrong with you?" Jasper demanded.

"What about what's wrong with you? You've exposed us all!" Edward shouted.

Jasper's eyes widened. "What?"

"She saw you hunt,"

"She can't of, she would've been asleep, I checked, Edward,"

"Then why did she just think the words 'blood drinker'?"

Jasper cursed and I looked at both of them in astonishment. "Are you sure?" I asked.

Edward nodded. My whole world seemed to freeze. Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no! What will happen to the family? To Esme and Carlisle? To Emmett? To Rose? To Renesmee! I started to panic and Jasper sent calming emotions.

"Okay, get Nessie, she and Alice are close and she'll be able to find out more than us," Jasper ordered.

Edward growled. "I am not getting my daughter involved in your mess," he stated.

"Nessie will want to help; she could even convince Alice otherwise,"

They turned to me as the final vote.

"Nessie would've come up with that plan in any case," I murmured. "So we might as well give her a chance,"

Edward closed his eyes and counted to ten and opened them again. "Are you sure, love?"

I nodded. "What else can we do?"

"We could get Rose to kill her,"

Jasper let out a vicious growl which surprised all of us, even him.

"Jasper, are you okay?" I inquired. I have never seen my brother so…frustrated.

He started pacing and mumbling unintelligibly. Edward muffled a laugh and I scowled at him.

"Bella…Jasper is falling in love with the human," Edward explained.

My jaw dropped and I looked at Jasper.

"Are you sure?" I asked, a smile creeping onto my face.

"I don't love her, I just want her to be safe," Jasper said through gritted teeth.

"This changes everything, we need to call a family meeting and discuss-"

"No, I am not in love,"

"It is possible to fall in love with a human," Edward pointed out as he squeezed my hand.

"I am not in love,"

"But don't you want to be?" I asked, sounding like Esme for a moment.

"I killed a human less than a month ago. I am a blood thirsty vampire, the last thing that could happen is for me to fall in love with a human,"

Edward and I contemplated this for a moment.

"What if we turned her?" Edward joked.

I hit his arm lightly in case he wasn't kidding and Jasper glared at us. We took it as a good time to leave and Edward muffled his laughter at Jasper.

Alice's POV

"What are you?" I asked calmly.

"What are you talking about?" Jasper replied.

I scoffed. "I saw you sink your teeth into that deer and-"

"Our family is different...we eat some meet raw, it tastes better,"

I looked away from Jasper's hypnotic eyes that were an odd orange colour and continued. "But you sucked all the blood out,"

"It's a traditional custom to drink the blood of an animal before eatin' it,"

I put my hands on my hips. "Jasper, I am not stupid, I know what you are,"

"What? A vampire? A zombie? They don't exist, Alice,"

"Well then why do you? You're a vampire,"

Jasper chuckled. "Oh really? Then check me for fangs,"

He smirked at me and I found myself balling my fists.

"Jasper do not lie to me…please," I murmured.

His face fell and he took in a deep breath.

"Alice-"

"Liar," I breathed. I covered my mouth and then looked at him accusingly.

"You were going to lie to me when I pleaded for you not to?" I cried.

I slumped on the couch and he pulled a chair in front of me.

"Why do you care so much?" he inquired.

We looked into each other's eyes for a few minutes. He seemed to be searching for something in my dark brown eyes and I was trying to find the answer to what he was in his reddish-orange irises. He released me from his gaze and stood up. My stomach grumbled and I grimaced.

"Do you have any food here?" I asked as I looked around the room.

He hesitated before answering. "I'll go get some," he muttered as he went outside.

The rest of the week passed slowly. Being in hiding from the scarily murderous Rosalie wasn't very interesting. I spent my time searching mythological creatures in google and trying to not get frustrated. Renesmee came to visit me with Jacob who carried enough food to last me a few months and updated me on her sibling's research.

I didn't hear her come into the room and jumped when I heard a giggle behind my shoulder.

"Aren't you too old to believe in vampires?" Renesmee chortled.

I scowled and minimized the window.

"Hey Nessie," I greeted.

"Hey Alice, guess what I have for you?" she piped.

"A giant pink elephant?"

She laughed and handed me a picture of a familiar woman, man and two girls. I traced their faces with my finger.

"Who are they?" I asked.

"The Brandon's; Bill, Pearl, Mary and Cynthia,"

"What happened to them?"

"Well, Edward and Bella have been doing some snooping and found out that they disappeared a few weeks ago. The oldest girl, Mary, looks a lot like you," Renesmee stated. "It's weird; they left all their possessions at their home in Biloxi, Mississippi and just took money and passports,"

A memory came flooding back.

My dad came running into the room saying we needed to leave now. My mum was trying to pack but we had no time. Cynthia was confused and asked me what was going on. I didn't know. We ran to the car and drove faster than ever before. Mum practically pulled me out of the car and we ran to the docks. Cynthia cried when Dad told her we couldn't go back. I wiped her tears away and followed Dad and Mum onto the family boat. I asked where we were going.

"Far away," Dad answered.

"Not far enough," a voice said.

Screams filled the air.

"Alice, are you okay?" Nessie asked as she shook my shoulder.

"We were running," I muttered. "We left in a hurry because we were escaping them,"

"Them? Who's them?" a voice asked from behind.

Jasper stood behind me and looked at me with worried eyes.

"I…I don't know…" I mumbled.

Loved it? Hated it? Thought that it was confusing? Please let me know because keeping your feelings bottled up is not good for your health.
