Living In the Past:
BPOV:
We were always so happy, it didn't feel right. It was impossible for someone to stay this joyful for such a long time. 3 months, and nothing tragic has happened. I have a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach...something's going to happen. I know it.
"Bella, why do you feel so anxious? What's wrong?" Concern was in Jasper's voice.
"Something doesn't feel right. I feel like something bad is going to happen to us." I felt unshed tears stinging in my eyes.
"It's okay. I'm here with you." Jasper wrapped his arms around me and held on to me tightly. But his warm embrace wasn't enough to soothe my fears. Instead, I just put them out of my mind. For the next couple of weeks, I began to believe that my life would be like this, happy and joyful. There was no doubting it.
The thirst became unbearable, and I knew it was time to hunt again.
"Jazz, I need to hunt. Come with me?" I pleaded.
"Okay!" Like Jazz needed a reason to hunt. We began to quench our thirst with our vegetarian diet when we smelled another vampire present in the forest. Déjà vu...
But this vampire scent was not one I recognized. This was someone else, someone new, hunting in OUR lands. We traced the scent until we came to a stop in front of a short woman with long, brown hair. It was darker than mine, and so beautiful and silky!
Jasper sucked in a surprised breath, and the woman turned around. Does he know her? Does he know her well?
"Jasper? Is that you?" The woman certainly recognized Jasper, and with some fondness in her eyes too. Hmm.
"Maria? What are you doing here?" So this is Maria. When Jasper told me his story, he did seem to edit things out. Maybe they had a romantic past that he never told me about.
"Ah Jazz. I've missed you so. Come here and give Maria a hug!" Maria smiled widely and stepped towards Jasper with her arms wide open. Jasper put his arms around her, but quickly withdrew them.
"Hm. Who is this?" Maria seemed to just have spotted me next to Jazz.
"This is Bella, Jasper's MATE." I felt the need to emphasize the word mate, just to show her that Jazz was mine, and not hers.
"Jasper's mate, are you? Well Jazzy, you never told me you'd moved on..." Maria had a frown on her tiny Mexican face.
"Well, he did. Don't live in the past honey!" I told her in a fake sweet voice. I barely knew her, and I already hated her.
Jasper smiled a tiny smile and said, "We were just finishing up here, so we'll be heading back to our home. Maria, would you please refrain from hunting around here? It'll be too conspicuous."
"Aren't you going to invite me to your home, darling? Is this the kind of southern hospitality you show for long lost friends?" Maria smiled angelically.
"No, I'm sorry. Whatever was I thinking?" Jazz said sarcastically. Maria didn't catch it. "Would you care to come to our house? I live with the rest of my coven, Edward, Alice, Esme, Carlisle, Emmett, and Rosalie."
"Sure thing Jazzy." Maria hopped toward us and stuck her tiny little fingers through Jasper's hand.
This isn't good, is it?
A/N: Nobody guessed this, did they? I so hate Maria. :x Anyways, reviews pleaseee! (:
