Hey guys, girls and aliens, thanks for the reviews! Sorry for the late update! I was feeling a little nostalgic so this has a cameo from everyone's favourite lawyer who can also create illegal documents: Jenks! Anyways, read on and review!

Alice's POV

He started pacing around the room and my eyes followed him as he walked from the left wall to the right. He let out a frustrated sigh and looked me in the eyes.

"You see, darlin', I thought I was goin' insane with bloodlust but then I realised," he started pacing again and continued. "But now I realise it's you…you're…you've changed my whole philosophy in life, you've believed in me when I just put you in danger by bein' within a mile radius of you,"

He knelt before me and he was still taller than me. I tried to say something but he put a cold finger on my lips.

"Darlin', you need to put me out of my misery. Is there any possible chance that you might actually not think I am a complete and utter epugnant monster and that you…that you like me?" His eyes were pleading for an answer and I considered what to do.

I knew the answer all along but was afraid to say it. All the memories of dread about telling him started replaying in my head. He felt my sadness and bowed his head in defeat, he stood up and my head snapped up.

"Wait," I called.

He turned back and I stood up on the bed which made me almost his height.

"You've kept me waiting a long time," I accused playfully.

He looked at me in confusion and I took a deep breath and pulled him closer to me. I touched my lips to his and kissed him. I could feel confusion and then an insane amount of joy and happiness come off of him in waves. He gently pushed me away but kept his hands around my waist.

"I'm sorry, ma'am," he breathed.

I let out a giggle and hugged him. He kissed the top of my head and laughed.

"We should get you heels that make you this height," he teased.

"Impossible," I murmured.

He put a stray hand of hair away from my face and stroked my cheek. "Never say impossible, darlin',"

The door opened and Nessie and Jacob fell in. Emmett had a cheeky grin and Bella looked worried about their safety. Nessie got up with the help of Jacob and blushed.

"Sorry, we…we couldn't resist listening in," Nessie explained.

Edward rolled his eyes behind Bella and I stifled a giggle.

"I say it's time for celebration!" Emmett boomed.

"Oooh yes! A party!" Nessie cheered.

"And we should have a cake and streamers and balloons!" I piped.

Nessie nodded and we beamed at the images of parties in our heads.

"Oh god, what have you unleashed upon us?" Edward moaned.

I laughed and interlocked my fingers with Jaspers'.

"Don't you like parties around here?" I inquired.

Jasper hesitated before answering.

"There have been honestly extreme parties thrown by us and we try to not encourage Renesmee, it's dangerous,"

I shook my head. "Then how will she reach her potential?"

There was a sudden crash and I flinched. It sounded like a tree crashing. We looked out the window and saw the flash of pale skin and black hair. Jasper put both hands on my shoulders and looked down at me.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

I nodded. "Do you think it was...her?" I murmured.

"Yes...she won't lay a finger on you, darlin', don't worry," he smiled. "You can stay in my room if you want,"

His siblings had disappeared and we were alone again. I relaxed in the bed and giggled.

"Isn't that a bit forward?" I muttered.

He pulled the covers over me and stood there awkwardly.

"You've never done this before, have you?" I teased.

"Wouldn't you be upset if I had?"

I smiled and patted the side of the bed next to me encouragingly. He sat down reluctantly and looked at me intently.

"Are you sure?" he inquired.

"What's there to be sure about?" I asked.

"Aren't you worried I might kill you in your sleep?"

I laughed. "You wouldn't,"

"Why not?"

"Because if you did, I'd come back and haunt you for all of eternity,"

"Is that a promise?"

I smiled. "Goodnight, Jazzy,"

"I don't like nicknames," I heard him grumble.

My dreams were terrifying that night. Maria laughed maliciously as she saw me cower behind the couch. She smiled as I screamed and ran away from her but even in stilettos she was much faster than I could ever be. She taunted and tormented me until she finally sank her sharp teeth into my neck. I woke crying and Jasper was trying to soothe me.

"Are you okay, darlin'?" he whispered.

I sniffed. "I-I think- yes- I am- now," I spluttered.

"Shh, it's okay, you're safe, what happened?"

"Maria was torturing me,"

He wiped away my tears.

"You don't have to worry about that ever," he uttered softly.

"Do…do you think I was having a premonition?" I sniffed.

"...I think it was just a nightmare, darlin',"

I nodded and he kissed my forehead.

zZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZz

"Jasper, what do you think she's going to do?" Edward inquired.

"I don't know...could we talk somewhere else? I don't want to wake Alice," Jasper stated.

"I'm already awake," I mumbled.

Edward rolled his eyes. "Renesmee has breakfast in her room,"

I bit down a sigh and walked across the hall, it was obvious I wasn't supposed to hear what they were discussing. Stupid sneaky vampires and their secrets.

"Nessie, what happened to the open door poli- Oh my god!" I squeaked.

Renesmee and Jacob were kissing, like, really kissing. They hadn't even noticed me walking into the room, that's how...focused they were.

Renesmee gasped. "Oh crap! Sorry, Alice!" she apologised.

"No, I'm sorry, go back to what you two were doing,"

I closed the door and laughed. I can't believe that just happened!

"Alice? What are you doing out here?" Bella inquired.

"I...uh...I like standing in hallways," I answered. What? I can't come up with a good excuse this early in the morning!

"I know my daughter is sucking face with a werewolf,"

I breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank god I didn't have to tell you,"

"I'm glad they're finally together,"

"Well, Nessie and I made a deal. She professes her love to Jake and I profess my love to Jasper,"

"Profess?"

I laughed. "You do realise it's going to get worse, right?"

She smiled. "I do. I'm happy for them, though,"

"I don't understand the technicalities. I mean...how come you aren't even a little grossed out?"

"Well, Renesmee is Jake's imprint,"

I tilted my head. "Imprint? What's that?"

She explained it to me simply and I nodded.

"So, it's like love at first sight?" I inquired.

She rolled her eyes. "Yeah, I guess,"

"Was that like...how it was between Edward and you?"

She laughed. "I thought he hated me the first time I met him,"

"What?"

"My scent drove him nearly insane and so he was fighting his inner demon for all of Biology. It was the craziest thing. I then caught him trying to change classes afterwards,"

I smiled. "Well, I guess it could be worse. I mean, he didn't kill you after all,"

She smiled. "Alice...if you ever need to talk about the...craziness around you...don't hesitate to talk to me,"

"Aww, thanks Bella,"

There was a coughing sound and we both turned to see a shy bellboy.

"I-I'm supposed to deliver the mail," he mumbled.

He offered Bella the envelopes with shaky hands and she took it.

Bella smiled. "Thanks,"

"Ummm...bye," he mumbled.

Once he was out of sight I giggled. "Jeez Bella, go easy on him next time,"

"What do you mean?" she inquired innocently.

I rolled my eyes. "You don't seem to realise the effect vampires have on humans,"

"I do...it's just hard to believe anybody would react that way to...me,"

I laughed. "That poor guy looked so nervous,"

She rolled her eyes and started flipping through the mail.

"Alice...this is for you," she stated.

I took a deep breath and opened it. On a piece of paper, there was a lengthy letter stating information about my court hearing. I read through it quickly, all the while my head was spinning.

"Alice?" Jasper called.

"We have to go to court next Friday," I informed. "I also need a lawyer,"

"Well, Edward can find a good one,"

"He can?"

"Yeah, he's been to law school before,"

"Worst years of my existence," Edward muttered. "But I also learnt a lot about finding a good lawyer and not a sleazebag who can't do his job. I'll be able to find you someone,"

I smiled. "Cool, now we just have to prove I'm innocent,"

"How?" Bella piped.

Edward smiled. "How about I get to work and find us a lawyer first?"

Edward's POV

"What do you mean you refuse to take the case?" I growled.

"Mr Cullen, I'm busy with my own case at the moment," he stated briskly.

I sighed and hung up. That was the fourteenth person who had lied to me about being busy. Once I started explaining the situation to them, they back out like the cowards they were. I knew that it was hard to prove someone was innocent when there was no witness or hard evidence but all of these people didn't even want to try!

"Jasper, I think we'll need to call Jenks," I stated.

He and Alice had started working on a card tower to pass the time.

"Jenks retired," Bella reminded. "He told me he was retiring last time I went to visit him,"

"Oh, did he tell you the name of someone who could handle our affairs?" Jasper inquired.

"What affairs?" Alice chimed.

"Fake IDs and what not,"

She nodded and continued with the card tower.

"Yes, he said he had a niece, Jane Smith...but I'm pretty sure it was a lie," Bella stated.

I took out my phone and did a quick google search.

"Yep, she doesn't exist," I confirmed.

Jasper scowled. "I'll have to pay him a visit for lying to us,"

"Leave him alone! He's done a lot of good work for this family," Bella defended.

"Maybe you could call him and ask for a contact?" Alice suggested.

Jasper got out his phone but Bella snatched it out of his hand with vampire speed.

"I'll do it," she insisted.

"She still has a soft spot for humans," I explained to Alice.

Alice smiled. "Good for her,"

With my vampire senses, I eavesdropped on the conversation.

"H-Hello?" Jenks answered.

"J, it's good to hear from you," Bella chimed. "How's retirement?"

"Oh, hello Bella, retirement's lovely. Why have you called?"

"Well, we were just wondering if you had any contacts that could be helpful to us,"

"Have you run into some trouble with the law?"

"Well, my friend has to go to court and no lawyers want to help her and I thought you'd know someone,"

"…I do but I…I want to know how bad the case is,"

"We truly need a lawyer, J, if we don't get one, my very good friend could go to jail,"

He still seemed reluctant.

"Tell him your friend is Jasper's wife," I whispered.

Bella nodded and smiled. "I mean, Jasper's wife could never survive jail, she's too small and delicate,"

"M-Mr J-Jasper's wife? Why didn't you just t-tell me that before, I have a nephew who could help,"

"John Smith?" I inquired with a smirk.

Bella bit down a giggle. "What's your nephew's name?"

"Jayden Jenks,"

"Oh, another J. Jenks?"

"Haha, yes,"

"Okay, and where does he work?"

"He operates globally,"

"Thanks for the name, J, enjoy retirement,"

"Goodbye Bella,"

He hung up and Bella handed the phone back to Jasper.

"Jayden Jenks...another dead end or is he real?" Bella inquired.

I looked him up on google and smiled. "He's real, I'll call him now,"

"Wait, was that exactly about Jasper's wife?" Alice inquired.

"Well, Jenks fears Jasper...so naturally if the person in need was someone very close to Jasper, he's going to respond faster," I stated.

Alice rolled her eyes. "Jazz, what did you do to scare him like that?"

He shrugged. "With the right lighting, I might even be able to scare you,"

She giggled. "You wish,"

Bella and I shared a brief look before I turned to the phone.

"Hello, Jayden Jenks office, how may I help you?" a cheery receptionist inquired.

"I'd like to speak with Mr Jenks," I informed.

"Of course, can I get a name?"

"Edward Cullen,"

There was a beep and some muffled murmurs.

"Hello, this is Jayden Jenks," a new voice stated.

"I'm Edward Cullen. Your uncle recommended you, my friend needs a lawyer,"

"Of course, what's their name and the nature of their case?"

I spent the next half hour explaining him the case and convincing him to take it.

"Look, sir, just because my uncle referred me-"

"Name your price,"

"What do you mean?"

"Whatever you want me to pay you, I'll give you double,"

"I'm not interested in money. I'm fresh out of law school and got an amazing opportunity at an international law firm and I owe my uncle that but this case is crazy. There are other people-"

"How's ten thousand?"

"Sir-"

"Twenty thousand?"

"Sir-"

"Thrity thousand and I'll pay for the plane ticket to get you here,"

He sighed. "Fifteen thousand before and if I win, you can pay me an extra ten thousand. My plane ticket can be paid by my employers,"

"So, you'll take the case?"

"You put up a good argument,"

"Thank you for your help,"

"Send the details to my receptionist and I'll get there as soon as possible,"

I smiled and after telling the receptionist the details, hung up.

"What did he say?" Alice chirped.

"Jenks accepted the case," I informed.

She smiled. "Yay, one step closer to not going to jail!"

Jasper rolled his eyes. "Darlin', if they send you there, which they can't since you're not even eighteen - not that those damn police understand that - I'll break you out and we can go hide out at Isle Esme,"

She giggled. "Sounds lovely, a criminal record and an extended vacation with a vampire,"

Jasper chuckled, a very rare sound for him. "Let's pray it won't come to that,"

Jenks arrived the next day. He was a shocking contrast to his uncle. He had a tan, dark brown hair and was wearing a pinstriped business suit. He glanced at me as I walked up to him.

"Are you Edward?" he inquired.

"Yes, you must be Jayden,"

He smiled but stopped to seem more professional. "Is Ms...Mary Alice Brandon residing in this hotel?"

"Yes, my family has taken a whole floor,"

He nodded and followed me casually. When we reached the floor, he stepped out and greeted my wife. He took her hand and kissed it.

"Hello, my name's Jayden Jenks," he said with a smile.

Bella took her hand out of his grasp with a grimace. "I'm Bella, Edward's wife,"

Jenks didn't falter and looked around. "Where's Mary?" he inquired.

I gritted my teeth and kept Bella closely by my side as we entered the Chair room. Alice and Jasper were in a discussion about immortality when we interrupted.

Alice's POV(a few moments earlier)

"Jasper, you can't protect me 24/7!" I hissed.

"That's what I plan on doin', darlin'," he stated.

"What if I want to go back to school? Will you stalk me in the corridors?"

"I'll take all the same classes as you,"

"Jasper, that's insane!"

"I'm just tryin' to keep you safe,"

"Well...what if Maria tries to kill me?"

"I'll kill her,"

"You're going to kill someone!"

"That someone is trying to kill you so of course I will,"

I sighed. "What if you...turned me…?"

He looked at me shocked. "You want to be a vampire?"

"I want to be stronger and I want to be able to protect myself,"

"Well darlin', it's your choice but I think you should think about it thoroughly,"

"What's there to think about?"

"You want to be a bloodthirsty, vicious killer?"

"I...How long does that part last?"

"A year roughly. Do you honestly want to go through that?"

"Yes, because I know you'll be there for me,"

Jasper frowned. "What about...your sister, Cynthia? Don't you want to find her?"

I faltered. Cynthia...what happened to her? Is she safe? Is she happy? Is she alive?

"Hey guys, guess who's here?" Bella called.

We turned and saw Bella, Edward and another man.

"Jayden Jenks, I'll be your attorney Ms Brandon," the man introduced.

My eyes widened. "Oh...um, hi?"

"Should we get to work on your case? I have some questions,"

I nodded. "Sure,"

He opened his briefcase to reveal a MacBook Air. He opened it up and turned to me.

"Time to prove you're innocent," he said with a smile.

I'm actually losing interest in this story but I'm going to try and finish it for the sake of the characters. Review and feel free to try and inspire me with any suggestions.
