-Bella's PoV- -Chapter 6- "Perfection"
'Please don't do it Bella, don't follow him!' The little voice in the back of my mind is telling me not to follow Edward into the woods, but I have never been very good at listening to reason, so why would I change now? I sigh and follow him anyway. He has been acting very odd for the last three days, since the little 'accident' at my birthday party.
I sigh again, stupid birthday party. I didn't even want it! Poor Jasper he must feel so bad, I worry for him because I haven't been able to tell him he shouldn't feel sorry or ashamed, it was an accident, they happen, nothing we can do but be glad we are all ok now. Even the little voice in my head agrees.
We have been walking for a while now, I wonder why he needs to go so deep into the woods? 'Perhaps he finally decided to eat you?' The voice said, I chuckled and shook my head, that wouldn't be very good for my health.
"Why are you laughing Bella?" He asked in an annoyed tone, stopping to look at me.
"I was just wondering why we need to go so deep into the woods and something silly crossed my mind." I chuckle softly again. Wouldn't that be funny though? 'Yes, yes it would be, in a very sick and twisted way. Ask him to take you back home now Bella.' Stupid little voice kept trying to make me afraid... This is Edward though, of course he won't hurt me. 'Pfft!'
"And what is that?" He said while taking a few steps closer to me, looking deeply into my eyes, trying to dazzle me. Even the annoying voice swooned and sighed. Weakling.
"Well... about you luring me out here to eat me. Like I said it's just something silly." I grin and try to reach for his hand but he stops me by taking a step away from me. 'Oh I think you just made him very mad.' The voice whispers. Well he asked!
"Very funny Bella." He says without a hint of humor in his voice and I just shrug. He really needs a sense of humor. Jasper and Emmet would totally find it funny.
"Well then if you are not going to eat me, what are we doing here?" I ask while looking around the woods.
"I'm leaving Bella." I frowned a little, leaving? What the hell does he mean?
"When will you be back?" I wondered what I could do with the rest of the family while he is away. Shopping with Alice for sure, video games with Emmet, maybe Jasper would let me borrow some of his books. The little voice was especially happy about my reading idea.
"No Bella, I won't be coming back. We are moving away from Forks. My family is already gone." I gasped. What? Everyone is gone? Without saying goodbye? That can't be!
"Why?" My voice broke a little. Why would they leave me without saying goodbye?
"I don't want you anymore Bella, this was a waste of my time." He spat, but that wasn't what I asked. Not exactly.
His words did sting a little but I'm more worried about everyone else leaving me without a second glance, did I do something to upset them? I look up at Edward with tears in my eyes just as he turns to leave. 'Let him go Bella, don't follow!' But I couldn't, I had to know.
"Wait please! They can't leave me like this! Where did everyone go?" I sniff and try to keep up with his fast pace but he turns, surprise clear on his face, a low growl escaping his mouth.
"They!" He roared and in less than a second I was on the ground, Edward on top of me and not the good type of 'on top' either. He was applying to much pressure to my hips. 'Well didn't I say not to follow?' The little voice said. I have to admit I didn't see it coming.
"Edward.." I whispered trying to push him away, like if it would do much good. I almost laughed at the complete absurdity of the situation. He of course wasn't listening.
To say I was shocked to see his hand moving closer to my neck, is saying too little, I thought Vampires liked to bite! I felt pain in my neck and heard Edward moaning as he lowered his head to the wound he made. At least one of us was feeling good I suppose. I was waiting for my life to flash in my eyes like they say it happens in the movies, but all I could think about was my parents and my adopted Vampire family. I doubt they will be very pleased with Edward for killing me. But if they left me without even saying goodbye... Perhaps they didn't really love me or consider me a part of their family?
Well as if my boyfriend trying to eat me and the deep cut on my neck were not enough to hurt me, the thought of my adopted family not loving me was. I loved them all so much. I could barely think now, I guess Edward was nearly done drinking my blood, my eyelids were so heavy and I was feeling very tired. My last thoughts were of Charlie, Renee, Jacob but especially about the Cullens and how lucky I was to have spent the last year and a half with them.
I thought about how much I would miss talking with Carlisle, cooking with Esme, listening to Alice speak for hours about the latest fashion shows, even if such things don't really interest me, playing video games with Emmet, watching Rosalie from far away working on her car, and Jasper, always keeping a careful distance from me while we sat quietly reading a book, but even with the distance I could feel how calm and happy he was just sitting there, checking about my human needs every hour or so.
I could feel movement around me now, did I finally die? Someone keeps calling my name but for the longest time my eyes won't open, one of the voices sounds lovely and I want to answer. I force my eyes to open and I couldn't be more happy to see him. "Jasper..." I try to smile but something is wrong, I feel so tired, I can't even say another word before the darkness enveloped me. I mentally sighed. Well I'm sure that was Jasper, perhaps my family didn't leave me after all. Why would Jasper be here alone? Not that I would complain if he is, after all if he is here it means that they didn't leave without saying a word. Maybe they all left goodbye messages with him.
"I'm so sorry Bella." I heard Jasper whisper close to my ear. He sounded so sad. 'Why are you sorry?' I wanted to ask but my mouth wouldn't move and then I felt it. He was biting my wrist! 'Oh God is he thirsty too?' I felt three more bites. 'Well that is odd, he wouldn't need to bite me so much to drink from me... Oh! He found me and he is trying to save me!' I finally decided, well I can't complain about that. Becoming a Vampire... I have wanted that since I found out about Edward, I had been thinking so much about spending an eternity with him that now I wasn't so sure of what I would do alone.
But it couldn't be so bad right? I mean I did have the little voice in my head to keep me company after all. 'God you are crazy Bella.' The voice taunted me. Well I'm not the only one that is crazy. I talk to the little voice, sure, but it talks back to me! At least I'm human, or was, since I'm changing now... Can't say the same for the voice. How the hell does that work anyway? I hope it goes away with the change. 'Focus Bella!' I guess it won't.
I heard someone asking Jasper about his mate, and though I found odd that he said Alice is not his mate, I felt a bit better, perhaps I wouldn't need to rely in the little voice for company. Jasper and I could keep reading together in his study! And without the scent of my blood it would be even easier to do! The little voice let out a happy sigh. I wonder when the pain will start. According to Edward becoming a Vampire is supposed to be very painful, but I can't feel a thing. Better not complain about that.
I heard them speak about going into the house with me and I felt some movement but it wasn't long until I was resting comfortably somewhere in the house, I supposed.
"Jacob" I heard Jasper whisper and then he moved away. 'Oh my God it hurts! Oh God make it stop! I rather die! Why can't I scream for them to kill me?'
The pain stopped as soon as I felt Jasper's hand on my arm again. 'Please don't leave me again, please!' I chanted in my head. I relaxed again after a moment and heard him speaking to Jacob about money and buying things and how I don't seem to be in pain whenever he is touching me. 'Thank God he noticed, please don't leave me Jasper!'
I wanted to sleep but I couldn't so I focused on listening to the voices around me. Peter and Charlotte were Jasper's friends it seems, they spoke some about the pain I felt and then Jasper told her I needed a bath. I wonder if I am blushing now. As bad as it sounds, I hope he doesn't leave my side while she bathes me, he could just close his eyes. I chuckle, first time I will naked with a man near by and I'm unconscious. Lucky me.
After a bath and some silence I hear someone entering the room again.
"Can't say I'm enjoying the dog smell." Peter said and then listen to quiet chuckles. "Jasper, we will have company soon." He continued and I heard someone growling.
"Company Peter?" Charlotte asked quickly.
"Why yes dear, remember Garret and Kate?" Peter replied, sounding amused. "I figured we could use a hand or two with the newborn. Jasper I think it's best if you don't contact the other Cullens for now." 'Not calling the other Cullens? Why not?'I wanted to ask him so bad, I missed them and wanted to see them.
"But Carlisle and Esme, they would love to see her, I'm sure. I don't know what Edward and Alice told them to make them leave, they wouldn't have done it without their lies." Jasper said, and I was both glad and disappointed, they didn't leave me without saying goodbye because they don't love me, Edward and Alice said something to make them leave, a lie according to Jasper. I felt confused, Alice is my best friend and Edward is my boyfriend, or was, I guess that trying to kill me qualifies as 'I don't want to date you anymore.'
"I know Jasper, of course they would love to see her, Charlotte and I haven't even met her yet and I can already see her as a little sister." Peter said, 'A little sister?' Well I'm glad they won't send me away as soon as I wake up at least.
"How about we wait until she wakes up? With Garrett and Kate here she will have plenty of company." He continued and it did make sense, I couldn't really see them right now anyway, stupid eyelids not functioning.
"Bella darlin' everything will be alright. We are all waiting for you to wake up. Wait until you meet Peter and Charlotte. They are technically your big brother and sister now, because you all share my venom." Jasper was talking to me now and his voice sounded beautiful. "And me, well you can see me as anything you like or need, I won't let anything bad happen to you, I will stay right here until you send me away. I hope you don't mind waking up into this life, if there had been another way I wouldn't have turned you without your consent I swear. But there was nothing we could do and I just couldn't see you go." He sighed softly. I felt warm and fuzzy inside he was so kind. 'Of course I won't mind waking up as a Vampire!' I wanted to say. 'Especially if I get to stay with you.' The little voice added, swooning.
"Even your friend Jacob would rather see you as one of us than not see you at all, and that is saying something darlin' since the mutts would like nothing more than see most of our kind in little pieces." He chuckled and the wolves outside barked, while the boys inside joined Jasper's laughter. I couldn't be more happy. I couldn't wait to wake up!
"Jasper, we need clothes for Bella, Charlotte and I can go buy them. Stay with her." Peter said. I guess I will need clothes, wonder what I'm wearing now... if anything. I wanted to blush again but the thought of being naked in the same room with Jasper didn't sound bad. 'Especially if he was naked too.' The little voice added.
"The guest room, it's filled with clothes and other things for her. You know me, I like to be ready for anything. I had Jenks create new papers for her the day we met her. She can choose between Cullen, Whitlock, Hale or McCarty when she is ready." He had papers made for me? And bought clothes? Oh he is so kind, I have to remember to thank him and do something nice for him as soon as I can.
"I hope she chooses Whitlock." Peter blurted out. Well that would make sense, Jasper did say we all share his venom now.
"Me too." I heard Jasper saying softly, he wants me to use his last name? Oh this couldn't be more perfect. I would love to use it too. The room was silent after that, I could hear people downstairs watching T.V. but I focused on the hand on my arm. Jasper was making soothing circles in my skin with his thumb, I hope he never stops for the next three days or after that.
No one was speaking now, that irritated me a little, just laying here without being able to move or open my eyes is a little boring. So I started to think about the last year and a half, it certainly was the best of my life, if you don't count the near death experiences and sexual frustration. 'Especially the sexual frustration.' The little voice said. Oh my God! What if I have to spend eternity like this? I wanted to kill Edward, it was all his fault! 'Nu uh, wasn't all Edward's fault.' I thought about that for a moment, if not with Edward, when did it start?
-Flashback-
I sighed leaning my forehead against the cold wall outside my Biology class trying to calm myself. That boy, Edward Cullen is so cute but he really creeped me out a little, I wonder what his problem was? He looked like he wanted to kill me. A hand on my shoulder made me gasp and jump a little, I turned around quickly, a little scared about Edward being back, but what I saw was... much, much better.
Jasper Hale was his name, according to Jessica. He was looking down at me, frowning and looking concerned. I could only gape at him. He was so handsome. Wavy blond hair falling close to his jaw, butterscotch coloured eyes, his nose looked like a sculpture. 'Oh god I wish I could touch it.' His jaw line was so strong and defined I can only imagine what it would feel to trail kisses and nibbles on it on my way to his mouth, his lips were the epitome of perfection. I could feel a little wetness in my panties now, his perfection was turning me on so much.
My eyes continued down to his neck, making me wish I could lick it. 'Oh God! Lick it? Where did that come from?' He was wearing a tight white jacket and dark gray jeans. His jacket fit his torso so well, it almost looked especially made for him. I wanted to unbutton it so I could see his chest, even with the jacket I could see it was most likely perfectly defined. 'Oh my God! How long have I been staring at him like a crazy person?' I blushed and looked up into his eyes again, he was staring at me still, looking amused? I was so embarrassed and turned on at the same time, the thought of him knowing I was checking him out only made my sittuation worse. I wanted to die, but not before I could bring myself some release.
His hold on my shoulder tightened slightly and I took a deep breath. He smelled delicious, I think my eyes rolled back a little. And then I heard his voice. I swear I could have an orgasm just listening to it. 'I'm officially crazy now, I will have myself committed... after some release.'
"Are you alright?" He asked with a hint of southern accent in his voice. I closed my eyes as they rolled back again and took a deep breath.
"Mmhmm." I couldn't trust myself enough to speak but I opened my eyes to see him grinning at me, his mouth parting slightly, making me wish it was all over me.
"You are going to be late to your next class, don't want to get in trouble right?" He raised a perfect eyebrow at me and I sighed and shook my head, still unable to speak.
Getting in trouble was worth it if I got to stand like this with him, though I wouldn't mind if he pressed his chest against mine a little, I remembered about what Jessica said. Jasper Hale and Alice Cullen were together. Very disappointing, but I didn't have to think they were together... later in my bed, as long as it's only in your head, can't be considered as cheating right? I smiled a little and whispered 'thank you' to him and ran to my gym class.
-End of flashback!-
Right. My sexual frustration started that day and now I'm here unable to move with at least three Vampires in the room that know whenever I'm aroused. Stupid Vampire senses. Better stop thinking about Jasper's perfection. I forced myself to think about other things while waiting for the next person to speak.
A/N: Thank you all for your reviews in the last chapter! I'm glad you all liked Marcus, I was a little worried about that, didn't want to make him serious all the time, like I said before not much into overly dramatic stuff. I'm also glad that I was able to answer some of the questions you all had!
I liked writting this chapter a lot, especially the little flashback. *Swoons*
Next chapter will be Peter's PoV again! In case you are missing him. I'm about halfway through it so I should be able to update tomorrow or the next day.
