Bella POV

I woke up in the morning in an unfamiliar room. It was a bedroom, no doubt. The walls were painted soft grey and beige. The bed was beyond comfortable. I looked down at myself and saw that I was still in my clothes from yesterday. Yuck. I remembered that I hadn't gone back home last night and I must have fallen asleep. I glanced around the room again and saw a guitar case on the floor. Jasper was painted on the side. Jasper. I wonder where he was.

I got out of the bed of heaven, and scanned the room. I went to his closet, which was a huge walk in and grabbed the first shirt I saw. It was blue; the color of his eyes. I hope he wouldn't mind. I shrugged out of yesterday's shirt and put on Jasper's. It hit about mid-thigh. Friends wore friend's clothes, right? Who cares, I thought. There was no way I was going to fit into his pants so I left on my jeans from yesterday. I closed the closet door and made my way to the hallway.

I could hear Jasper rummaging around in the kitchen, so I followed the noise. I stopped in the middle of the hallway to look at some pictures hung on the wall. All looked as though they were taken here at the lake house. My brother was grinning wildly at Rose in one, and she was looking up at him with so much emotion with the fire pit ablaze in the background. She was so right for him.

I walked in to the kitchen and found Jasper searching through the cupboards. He was shirtless, and I could see the muscles in his back as he reached for something on one of the top shelves.

"Good morning," I said smiling.

Jasper jumped and turned toward me; I had frightened him. I smirked as he composed himself.

"Mornin' Darlin'" he drawled. There he went with the 'darlin' thing again. "I was lookin' to see if we had anything for breakfast, but I'm afraid we don't."

"Oh, that's fine. I can make something when I get home," I said.

"No, no. We didn't eat at all yesterday, and I'd feel bad if you'd starve while I was in your company."

I laughed. "Jasper, you would starve too, and I'm pretty sure I can hold off eating for another thirty minutes."

He laughed then looked thoughtful for a moment.

"We're going out for breakfast. I'm buying," he stated.

"Jasper, I can surely pay for my own. You don't need to that; you've already done so much."

"Not that much," he said. "And, I want to pay for it, Sweetheart."

Sweetheart?

He turned around and went to the living room. I watched the muscles in his back again as he walked. He put the movies from last night away and picked up the portable DVD player.

"One second. I just need to put this away and get changed," he said. He started walking down the hallway when he turned around and said, "Nice shirt by the way. Looks good on ya," and winked.

I blushed, and I heard him chuckle on the way to his room.

Emmett POV

Where the hell was she? I noticed that Bella didn't come out after school, so I figured she was catching up on work or in the library. But, she didn't come home last night and I was getting pretty damn worried. I would never want something bad to happen to my baby sister.

I was pacing in our little living room, thinking of the possibilities. Kidnapping or she went to a party. Sure there was a big party last night, but I was there and I didn't see her. Jasper wasn't there either.

Jasper kidnapped Bella! Damn him to the bottomless pit of hell; kidnapping my baby sister. I shook my head.

I grabbed my cell phone from my pocket and called Rosie. Oh, Rosie, my beautiful Rose.

She answered the phone breaking me out of my thoughts. "Um, hello?"

"Rosie! It's me. Bella didn't come home last night. I was thinking of possibilities like a kidnapping or she was at a party last night, but there was only one party last night, and we were there. So I came to a conclusion. Jasper kidnapped her. I mean you too noticed Jasper wasn't there last night."

"Wait, wait, wait. Slowdown. Emmett you do know it is seven in the morning right?"

"Uh," I looked at the clock. "Yes."

"Liar. You said Bella didn't come home last night, and that my brother kidnapped her?" she asked.

"Yes."

"You're so full of it," she laughed. She was mocking me!

"Fine then. Let me just ask you this, did Jasper come home last night?"

"No, but seriously Em? My brother would not kidnap Bella. Maybe they went to a party on the Rez."

"But she hasn't called! Rosie, I'm scared. What if something bad happened to my baby sister? What if something bad happened to Jasper?"

There was silence on the other end for a few moments.

"Okay, Em. I'll be over there in a few minutes,"

"See you soon, Rosie. I love you, babe."

"I love you too," she replied.

Bella POV

"You got everything?" Jasper asked as we headed out of the lake house.

"Yep, I didn't come with much," I said, gesturing to the shirt I held in my hand.

Just before we got to the parking lot at the beach I looked out over the water and breathed in the ocean air. It was so beautiful here; I loved it.

By the time we got to the diner for breakfast, Jasper had me laughing so hard it hurt. Some of stories he told of my brother and their friends were hilarious!

We got a booth by the window and the waitress came and took our order.

'She smiled at us, "What can I get you two to drink to start off?"

"I'll have an orange juice," I said, and looked at Jasper.

He looked up at the waitress "I'll have that, as well as a coffee."

"Make that two," I chimed in.

While waiting for our breakfast we made conversation.

"Your last year in high school. Are you excited to be done this year?" I asked Jasper.

He pursed his lips thoughtfully. "In some ways I am, and in others I'm not. I'm excited for university, though I'm not too sure if I want to go right after schools finished. I may take a year split and spend it at the ranch or do some traveling. I haven't really given it much thought yet."

"What university will you apply for?"

"I'm either thinkin' of applying for the University of Washington in Seattle or one in Texas. So, I'll be close to family either way."

"That's nice that you want to stay with family. I don't think I'll ever leave Emmett," I said laughing. Though, it was the truth. Now that I have him, and he's the only family that I basically have left I don't think I would ever want to be too far from him.

We ate in silence and Jasper paid for the bill like he said he would.

When we pulled in front of my house I saw Emmett pacing on the front porch and it looked like Rosalie was trying to calm him down. I looked at Jasper and he just shrugged.

"This can't be good," I said, mostly to myself.

I got out of the car slowly and made my way to Emmett. Jasper was right by my side. Emmett looked up at me. At first I thought he was going to yell or scream, but he did the opposite. Emmett pulled me up into a huge bear hug, picking me up off from the ground.

"God where were you? I've been so damn worried," Emmett said into my hair.

"Sorry, Em. I-" Emmett put me down.

"Did Jasper kidnap you?" He looked at Jasper with anger. My eyes widened and I burst out laughing.

"Why would Jasper kidnap me?"

"Why does everyone keep laughing at my theory?" he said frustrated.

"Because your theory isn't that great of one."

"Then where did you go?" he said looking between Jasper and I. "Why the fuck do you have on Jasper's shirt?" His eyes widened with disgust, and he looked at Jasper. "With my sister? No, no, no! That's my baby fucking sister, Jasper!"

Oh my God, did Emmett think...?

"You banged my sister!"

"No!" Jasper and I said in unison.

"Emmett, I didn't sleep with Bella. Victoria and Lauren were tryin' to beat up Bella or some shit, so I stopped it. I then took Bella to First Beach and we talked, and I showed her the Lake House. It started raining while we were there, and we couldn't go back to the vehicle in that kind of weather. We played cards, and then tried to watch a movie when the power went out," Jasper explained. "We kept trying to call, but, as you know, the service is very shitty out there. We watched a couple of movies on the portable DVD player I have, and she fell asleep. I put her to bed in my room and I slept on the couch. No big deal."

Emmett narrowed his eyes and huffed. "Fine."

"Why the hell didn't you call me or somebody when you left Jasper? Mom is pretty worried. I didn't know you didn't come back home until Emmett called me this morning," Rosalie yelled at him.

"I forgot. I'm sorry Rose."

Rose's eyes narrowed. "You better be."

"Anyway, you missed a hell of a party last night Jazz!" Emmett exclaimed, earning a slap to the back of the head by Rose.

"What was that for?" Emmett grumbled.

"Kind of a serious topic, Emmett. Just remember you were the one who was as worried as an old mother hen."

"Oh, sorry," he mumbled then asked, "Now can I change the subject?" Rose just shook her head and rolled her eyes, fighting off a smile.

A/N (Please Read!): A short, shitty chapter; I know. I promise a longer/better chapter next time.

Question: Do you think Jasper and Bella's relationship should take a while longer to grow, or have them be together by the next couple chapters?

I have no clue on what to do with them at the moment ;)
