AN: Thanks to everyone who reviewed! You've given me confidence to continue on with the story! I forgot to say in the last chapter that I don't own anything; everything belongs to Stephanie Meyer. As always read and review, but more importantly, enjoy!

Jasper POV
I can honestly say that my jaw hit the floor when I laid my eyes upon that beautiful girl. Her hair was the deepest chocolate brown. Her eyes, those beautiful eyes, they glistened and shined, but pierced me directly to my soul. Right then and there, I knew that I was in love. But as I was about to meet the love of my life, Alice stopped me. "Patience Jasper. If you went to her now, you wouldn't have a very sweet moment with her later."
"But Alice! That is my mate! I know in my haert that I cannot be without her! What have you seen that is so important?" I asked her.
"Jasper, if I tel you, it will never happen and then you'll be sad. Just wait unitl lunch and everything will be magical!" Alice said as she flitted off her to her first class.
Curse that little pixie! Why won't she just tell me what she saw? I know that she has looked and seen my future and that I'll be extraordinarily happy, but when is it going to happen? Maybe I could get it out of Edward; he's got to know . Afterall, he can read minds and he's her mate.
"Sorry, Jazz, I'm sworn to secrecy. I was threatened with a global, week-long shopping extraveganza if I told you anything. And you know Alice: I'd be shopping almost 24/7 at all her favorites stores, especially the ones in Paris," Edward said, appearing from nowhere in particular.
Fine! Don't tell me anything! One thing is for sure: that girl is mine and I will devote my life to her happiness! I wonder what she's like. I bet she has a sweet personality. I wonder...
"I hate to interupt your lovesick inner monologue, but we have to get to class. Come on, lunch is only four classes away. I'll even keep Alice, Rose and Emmett at bay so you can use some of that southern mojo on her," Edward said as we ran to our first class of the day.
Time seemed to be at a standstill! It was drving me crazy! I kept looking at the clock: 15 more minutes until I see her, 12 more minutes, 6 more minutes, 2 more minutes. "Finally!" I exclaimed as I ran as fast as "humanly" possible to lunch.
I debated for a long time how I would approach her. I had thought that I would get a read on how she was feeling and then send her waves of calm, joy, etc. now I wasn't so sure. Jessica and her gaggle of friends had just rudely kicked my Angel from a table and now she was sitting alone, reading a book. I could feel her embarassment, sadness and anger from across the cafeteria. Okay Jasper, it's now or never. Calm her then turn on the mojo!
As I put this plan into action, I casually began to walk towards my Angel. I was trying very hard not to send her the nervousness and anxiety that I was feeling and instead calmness and joy. It seemed to be working because as I stepped in front of her, I saw a small smile grace her beautiful lips. Oh my god! With that smile she made me melt! Stop it! Man up and talk to her! "Excuse me ma'am. May I sit here?" I said, making sure to drawl a little.
"Don't tell me this table's 'reserved' too. I'm sorry, I'm new here, so I don't know which tables are claimed and which are not. I'll just get out of your way so you can enjoy your lunch," my Angel said as she hurriedly got up and attempted to leave. GOd she's so cute when she's flustered! Dammit! She's leaving! Calm her down and make her stay.
"No no no! This table is vacant, I was simply asking if I could sit with you," I said as I flashed her a smile and instantly felt her get embarassed, excited and what was that? A glimmer of lust and love? I can't believe it! She likes me too! Oh my god! I couldn't be happier!
The rest of the conversation was amazing. Bella had the voice of an angel that had me mesmerized the whole time. Bella. That name made my dead, still heart skip a beat everytime I thought about it.
"Excuse me Jasper, but unless you want the whole school to start making out, I'd suggest you stop projecting such love and lust. I can see that you finally had the 'sweet moment' I referred to earlier and it went well. Good!" Alice said as she danced around me then bounced away.
Alice, Alice, Alice. Always so excited and happy. She's the one Cullen I somewhat enjoy being around. I chuckled about this all the way to biology.
A few minutes into class, my Bella came in flustered and embarrassed. My heart swelled with joy! I had my Bella in class with me. I quickly sent her a wave of calm to ease her embarassment and anxiety. I don't think she noticed me though because when the teacher told her to sit by me, she automatically projected love, lust and excitement.
We briefly chatted before working on the assignment we were given. Suddenly, biology was now my favorite class and I couldn't wait to see what the future had in store!
