Chapter 9

After about an hour Kate decided to go round to his and find out what was going on over at the house. She got changed back into what she had worn earlier and drove over there. When Kate arrived at his house none of his family was there. She waited for two hours but they still didn't come back home, as she drove home she rang his mobile but he didn't answer her calls.

When she got to school the next day Jasper was their at the usual spot waiting for her but she just walked straight past him and didn't talk to him all day. Two weeks went by and she still didn't talk to him but he tried to talk to her about why he hadn't answered any of her calls but she would just walk off from him. "Okay Kate what have I done for you to do this?" Jasper asked her after three weeks over her ignoring him. "If you want to know why I've been ignoring you for three weeks it's because I need to sort something out, look wish I could tell you but I just can't sorry but I really can't. You need to go now and be quick about it. Sorry and I love you!"

More weeks past and Kate just didn't know what to think about what jasper had said. She missed seeing him, he was never at school or anywhere she could think of where he might be. Sam and DD didn't see her around, when they went to her house they found her alone and not wanting anyone be with her but they both stayed and they talk about what was might going on with Jasper. Kate seemed to get better after awhile. Then one day he showed up out of the blue but she just told him that after what he had done to her that he was no longer part of her life and she told him he was not to come to the house anymore unless she asked him to. Kate promised him that she would keep his secret but only if he didn't interfere with her life.

Jasper left after his horrible talk with Kate in a bad mood because he realised that he had pushed her away and not told her why she couldn't know what had been going on for the time that he never saw or spoke to her. When Jasper got home Emily noticed that something was wrong so went and asked him "Hey Jasper, what the matter with you, I've never seen you so down?"

"Hey Emily, Kate and I have broken up but it's my fault because I didn't tell her what was going on and I never even tried to speak to her but hey it doesn't matter now it's over and that the way it is. God I wish I had just told her about James, if I had told her this would have never happened!" Emily answered in a mellow voice "I'll go and talk to her tomorrow and tell her about Jack and why you couldn't tell her, is that okay with you?"

"Go ahead Emily she'll talk to you but she just doesn't want to talk to me that's all. Tell mom I won't be at dinner I'm going out with Jack hunting tonight just to clear my head, don't tell her why I'm hunting or she'll ask me questions tomorrow before school, I know I can trust you thanks"

After Jasper had left Kate she decided to go for a walk to clear her head and then to call Emily and talk to her and ask if she would come over so she wasn't alone, it was also so Emily could see her after such a long time. An hour later Emily got to Kate's house and they talked for a while but then the one thing Emily really didn't want to say to Kate was about why Jasper had done what he had. "Kate, Jasper has a friend called Jacks. James is alright but he can let's say use his gift for other things."

"I guess Jasper told what I said then, now I feel really bad. So what's this James gift and what does he use it for?" Emily answered in a calm voice "Yeah he did tell me, no you needn't feel bad, Jack can change people's mind and it's not always for the better. So I've got to go I didn't realise it was so late, I'll see you at school tomorrow then. Bye" Kate said goodbye to Emily and went to get ready for bed.

As she came out of the shower her phone went off but she didn't know who was calling her because it was a number that wasn't in her phone book. She answered it but when the voice said hello at the other end she knew it was Jack, he told her that he had changed his number so that was why he had called her. They talked for an hour but when she heard her front door being opened so she told jack that she had to go and she hung up the phone. As she reached the bottom of the stairs she saw the silhouette of a man that looked like jasper but when he called her name it sounded nothing like him, in fact it sounded like someone she used to know. When he came into the light Kate realised that it was her Jack her friend from school but she soon realised that jack had gone missing three years ago and hadn't been found since.

Jack said to Kate in a calm but understanding tone "Hey Kate, I know this is a shock but it's really me, do you remember when I went missing three years ago well I didn't really go missing"

"I can see that! Where the hell have you been you left us thinking the worst had happened and do you know my friend named Jasper?" Kate shouted at Jack. "Yes I do know your friend Jasper, I didn't go missing I just got lost and then the next morning found that I had become this horrible creature. The reason I didn't come back was because I have not long learnt how to control my hunger in fact it was about year ago, that I finally learnt to control myself around humans and it's all thanks to your friend Jaspers and family, they found me and helped me. Sorry for what I did and can you forgive me?" Jack asked Kate.

"I Can forgive you but you have to promise that you won't do anything that could hurt me while you are here and you can't go out when I'm at collage" Kate told Jack.
