There's a thin line between the dark side
and the light side baby tonight
It's a struggle gotta rumble, tryin' to find it
But if I had you, that would be the only thing I'd ever need
Yeah if I had you, then money fame and fortune never could compete
If I had you, life would be a party, it'd be ecstasy
Yeah if I had you.
If I Had You - Adam Lambert.
Jasper Point of View.
My feet hit the ground at such a fast pace, but leaving no trace of a sound. I regretted this plan from the second I left my Bella. Damn, I hated this. I slipped my ring off and attached it to a silver chain, clasping it around my neck. The chain was long, so the ring hung low under my shirt.
The smell of vampire hit my senses. Fuck, I thought we were meant to smell good. She smelled like someone overdosed on perfume. A little would have been okay, this much though, this burned my nose. I sighed, seeing the little cafe just a little further.
Someone kill me now.
I entered the cafe, seeing the little pixie. I smiled, knowing Bella would be seething over the inch and a half height difference. Her gold eyes shone brightly and a smile was on her face. Her short inky black hair had brown bits in it, and I can't say I really liked it.
I liked Bella's hair. It was long and beautiful. But I had this weird feeling she was going to cut it. I guess I'd find out when I saw her tomorrow.
"Hello, Jasper. You've kept me waiting for quite some time." Alice smiled. I tried to look shocked. What did Emmett say? Apologize.
"Sorry, ma'am." I said, my Texan accent thick. She smiled even more.
"It's alright. I'm Alice." She said, bouncing into my arms. I had to force myself not to push her off. She pulled back, still smiling brightly. "We're going to be so good together."
Emmett, I am going to rip your arms off and bury them in different countries.
I tried to smile back.
"Carlisle, Esme! Come meet Jasper!" Alice yelled after nearly kicking the door to the nice looking house off it's hinges. Carlisle and Esme walked down the stairs, along with Edward. I had to keep my mind in a nervous state, Rosalie wasn't near me enough to keep some parts shielded out. Bella had to be the only on protected all the time.
"Hello Jasper. I'm Esme. This is my husband, Carlisle, and our son, Edward." She introduced. I made a shocked looking face.
"You were together in your human life?" I asked, knowing they weren't. We had done our research. Edward laughed.
"I'm not really their son, I was around before Esme. Carlisle turned me when I was dieing from the influenza bug. Horrible thing." He laughed some more. I nodded in understanding.
"Jasper wants to learn our diet. He wants to change from all the horrible things Maria made him do." Alice said excitedly. If only they knew.
"Are you okay, Jasper? Your thoughts are all over the place." Edward asked sincerely. Douche was actually buying this?
"Yeah, sorry. Just a little nervous. What if I slip?" I asked, my tone worried. What they didn't know is that I had perfect control.
"My visions will help. Edward is the fastest in our family. He would read my mind and stop you." She smiled. I just nodded.
"Well, Jasper. Welcome to our home." Carlisle smiled proudly. I nodded again in thanks.
"Jasper, come on! Let's get ready for school." Alice said, bouncing into my room excitedly. She wanted to share a room straight away, but Edward 'read' my thoughts and discovered that I was uncomfortable being so intimate with someone I had only just met. Thank fuck. Sharing a room.. a bed, with that pixie just made me want to shudder. It's only been one night and I missed Bella like crazy.
"Is that really a good idea, what if I kill someone on accident?" Fake worry laced my voice. She tapped her head.
"You will be fine! I know these things. I've seen it."
"Okay." I said, reaching for some jeans and a black hoody.
"No, you can't wear that. Jasper, wear this." She said, handing me a white button down shirt with blue designer denim jeans. I really liked what I had chosen. Bella would like what I had chosen.
"Can't I wear this?" I asked, holding up my handful of clothes.
"Nope, she giggled, thrusting the clothes at me. "If you're not down and dressed in five minutes, I'll be dressing you myself." She suddenly became lustful. I groaned in frustration, pushing her out of the room quickly. Like fuck she was going to see me even half naked. I quickly threw the clothes on at a vampire speed and ran down stairs.
"Wow, that was fast." She giggled again. Fuck, what was with all that giggling? I just set my mind on seeing Bella today, and a smile came over my face almost instantly.
"We'll take my Porsche. It's a 911 Turbo. In my favourite color. Yellow!" I internally slapped my forehead. How could she like such bright colors.
"I'll take the volvo." Edward said. He sounded almost sad. "You would be too if you were the odd one out." He said reading my mind. I acted shocked.
"Sorry, that's going to take some getting use to." I apologized. He just nodded, pulling his car door almost off the silver volvo, and getting in, slamming it shut again. He sped toward the school, leaving me with Alice.
It was easier to think about Bella when Alice was here, atleast she couldn't read my mind.
We got to school fast, and I saw Edward talking to a small girl. She had black hair that was just past shoulder length in choppy layers. Then it hit me. Bella. (I'll find a picture and put it on profile ) Emmett made her scent smell like strawberries and freesia instead of her usual coconut and vanilla smell.
"Wow, Edward doesn't usually talk to the humans." Alice thought a loud. "Let's go introduce ourselves." Alice cheered taking my hand and dragging us over. I could no hear Bella's fake heartbeat, it did not increase or decrease in beats. It was just completely calm.
"Hi. I'm Alice. This is my boyfriend, Jasper." She introduced, and I mentally cringed. I looked at Bella. She really pulled this off. Her grey eyes were exactly as I remembered them, and it made me smile. She looked so tough, so fucking hot. Edward was too busy throwing lust at her to notice my thoughts.
"I'm Bella." She smiled, and my dead heart lifted at hearing my mate's voice again.
"Pleasure." I said, nodding.
"Could be." Bella shot back. I smirked back at her, silently wishing it would be. Alice laughed nervously. Was she intimidated by Bella, even though she looked human? What a wimp.
"What year are you, Bella?" Edward asked. His eyes kept roaming, from her checkered blue and black shirt to her grey jeans to blue converse. The lust and desire pouring out of him made it hard for me to not jump her.
"I'm a junior. I'm seventeen." She smiled. But eternally 16, I added mentally. Bella smirked in my direction, she always seemed to know what I was thinking.
"Me too." Edward smiled crookedly. "Maybe we'll have some classes together?" His voice was hopeful. Bella was disgusted, it made me smile. That's my girl.
"Guess you never know." She replied. Rose came over, wrapping an arm around Bella. Edward was shocked for a second, his emotions turning to confusion and worry.
"Hey Bells." Rose kissed her cheek. Bella smiled. Now Eddie was jelous.
"Hey Rose. Edward, this is Rose. My twin sister. Rose, this is Edward, that's Alice and Jasper. Jasper is Alice's boyfriend." Bella's voice held a sarcastic edge to it, that only I caught.
"Nice to meet you. Bells, come on. Emmett is waiting for us. We got art." Rose smiled. Bella nodded.
"Bye guys" They turned, walking toward where Emmett stood, his arms folded across his chest. He wore a white top with three quarter sleeves, and black buttons, and white pants with black sneakers. A white baseball cap sitting sideways on his head. I watched Edward's reaction as Emmett approached them, kissing them both on the lips quickly, I glared when Emmett looked at me tauntingly. They took one of his hands each and walked into the building. (What he wears in Twilight, in the cafeteria. I had Twilight on before lol.)
Edward was fuming.
"Jasper, what was she feeling just then? Is she with him? She never mentioned it. Why wouldn't she?" He kept rattling on and on and on.
"She feels brotherly love for him." I said honestly. He was relieved instantly, as was Alice.
"Thank goodness." Edward said. Thank goodness? What a fucking pansy..
"I don't like her. She was practically trying to get into your bed!" Alice yelled possessively. I knew Bella had heard that, because I heard her soft chuckle.
"Who does that? I introduced you as my boyfriened, and she still tried it on!" Alice growled. Fuck, this damn bitch was way to possesive, at least with Bella it actually took time. Sure, I kissed Bella on the first day, but we had some massive fucking fights after that.
And during that kiss she shocked me off of her. She didn't actually develop any love for me until she was a few years older. But Alice, fuck she wanted to have sex with me the minute she saw me, and I was sure Edward was the same with Bella.
"No, I would have heard her thoughts." Edward interupted. She was relieved again.
"You heard her thoughts?" Alice asked hopefully. Edward pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Actually, I couldn't read her mind at all. Her twin was kind of fuzzy, I could hear bits and pieces. Mainly her concern for her sister." Edward said. Alice scoffed.
"Sluts. I can already tell." She sneered. Edward glared at her coldly.
"La Tua Cantante." He whispered. Alice's eyes widened and she apologised profusely. I was trying not to laugh, Emmett really was going all out for this.
