Here's another oneee, okay, so a bit cheesy, but we all need a bit of cheesy :)
Loveee you all, enjoy and REVIEWWWWW (Y)
I opened the door to my room to see a figure sitting on my bed. At first I thought it was Spencer, but the light was still off and the figure was too still. My original hopes for Jasper were dashed when he turned to face me and I was it was Edward's face. I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Then I noticed what I was thinking. Oh shit.
'No worries, I know.' Edward said, smiling at my thoughts. My initial feelings were of surprise.
'Jasper told you?' I asked, hoping he had seen my argument and done it. Then I also felt bad for forcing this upon him.
'Not quite.' Edward replied. When he didn't continue I gave him a questioning look. 'He came home in a foul mood. It was sort of difficult not to hear what he was thinking. He was kind of shouting it.' Edward must have heard my thoughts as he suddenly changed his course. 'No, no, not at you. At himself. He was annoyed for letting you go, for being so stupid, sitting there, and then he imagined what he should have done, and well, it's not really the kind of thing one acquaintance would do with another. From there it was rather easy to guess.
'However, even if he feels terrible for whatever he's done, it's not at all in his mind to come over here. I thought I'd drop by and see what you were thinking. It seems you both regret whatever you did.' Edward said. I realised what he was doing. I felt like he was our cupid.
'I am. Seeing as you two can't seem to get your act together, I thought I'd do it for you. It would be a lot easier if I knew what happened though...' He said and patted the bed next to him. I sighed and sat down.
'It's ridiculous, I'll just warn you before...' I said. Edward just smiled, so I carried on. 'Jasper and I have been, uh, seeing each other for almost a month.' Edward's face didn't change at all, so I continued, 'So I thought it was about time he told someone. I mentioned it and he didn't really think he should, he said it would be better as 'our little secret'. So I kind of went crazy on him. I told him that you guys would understand and you all love him and want him to be happy, but he just sat and didn't say anything. I tried to get him to talk to me but he wouldn't, and he didn't stop me from leaving, so I did.' I felt tears welling up again and begged myself not to cry. Edward sat still, just like Jasper had.
'You have to stop thinking he's angry at you.' Edward told me. It was more of a command. 'He's angrier at himself. He's crazy about you, Beth.' As Edward said that, I felt warmth welling up inside me.
'But what can I do? He refused to say anything to me.'
'Oh, I don't know Beth, I just didn't want you crying out all your tears until you didn't have any left.' Edward said it with humour in his voice. I glared at him.
'Woah, okay,' he held his hands up to show he was kidding. I sighed and let myself fall backwards onto my bed. So what was I supposed to do? Go and tell Jasper I forgive him? I wasn't even angry at him, so that wouldn't work. I wanted him to know I was sorry, not the other way around. I just wanted to know things were okay.
'You'll get over it.' Edward said dismissively. 'Jasper's nice. Most of the time.' He added on that last bit quietly and I frowned at him. 'I'm not saying anything.' Edward said, turning away from me. I sat up and looked at him.
'Yes you are, you can't go and make a statement like that and leave it. C'mon, spill.' I crossed my arms over my chest and narrowed my eyes at him.
'Okay, well let's just say Jasper hasn't always been a one woman kind of man.' Edward went to stop, but as my facial expression and body position had not moved he continued. 'Before he met Alice, Jasper was a bit of a ladies' man, and we were all worried that when Alice died he would go back to his old ways. I just don't want you to get hurt, Beth.' I tried to cover the shocked look on my face. Was he saying Jasper didn't really like me that much?
'No, Beth, not at all. It's just a warning. He's hurt people before. I don't want you to become one of them.'
'So, you're expecting him to break my heart?' I said, still certain Jasper could never do something like that. Not the Jasper I knew.
'Yeah, not the Jasper I know either. He's different; better. I don't think he will break your heart. I guess I just thought you ought to know.' Edward shrugged and started to stand to leave.
'Well thanks, Edward, but I trust him.'
'I know you do Beth, I'll see you soon.' And with that he quickly moved to the window and lifted himself out, and without another sound he was gone. I sat in silence on my bed thinking about what he had said. It was hard to believe, yet I did. Of course Jasper wasn't like that now though.
I realised I was still in my towel, so I quickly got into my pyjamas and climbed into bed. Within minutes of my head hitting the pillow I was asleep.
The dipping of my bed alerted me to someone sitting on it. I glanced over to my clock. It was four thirty, who would be in my room at this time. I sat up to only see their back at the end of my bed, but from that I could tell instantly who it was.
Jasper.
He turned and was swiftly by my side. Before either of us spoke he pulled me into his arms, hugging me tight to his body. I pushed my face deep against his chest, loving the smell and the feel of his body. His arms rose from my waist to stroke my hair as he spoke to me. I was only aware of my tears seeping into his shirt as he told me not to cry, yet I wasn't sad, I was so happy that we could sort this out.
I don't know how long we sat for, or when he lay down, pulling me with him, gathered up in his arms. I fell asleep at some point, clinging as tightly as I could to Jasper, getting as close as I could.
My alarm woke me up much too early Friday morning, but it wasn't long before I remembered the cool body lying next to me and I felt the reluctance to move.
'C'mon, get up lazy bones. I'll be back in half an hour to pick you up.' His smooth voice entered my mind.
'No way can you get away with giving me a lift.' I said, still only just conscious.
'Well your car's broke, so I don't see how else you'll get to school.' I could hear humour in his voice and guessed what he had done.
'Ah, man! You are paying for the mechanic!' I said, and felt him complain next to me. 'You bust up my car, you can fix it.'
'How else can I get away with taking you in to school?' He asked and I knew it wouldn't be long before he started full out laughing.
'Oh whatever, let me get ready.' I said, laughing myself now. He was quickly out of the bed and on the windowsill. He blew me a quick kiss before disappearing. I smiled to myself, not able to contain my happiness.
Half an hour couldn't go by quick enough. I dressed at the speed of light, rushing downstairs and jamming some toast into my mouth. Spencer was the first to notice my happy mood.
'Woah, someone's cheery!' I looked over at him glaring; the way he had said it sounded bad. 'No, good thing, after last night, this is very good!' He said, laughing as he made his way out the door. I laughed with him, glancing at the clock and seeing Jasper would be here in about two minutes. I shouted bye to mum before grabbing my things and rushing out the door.
Just as Spencer pulled out of the drive, Jasper appeared around the corner, right on time. I smiled broadly and jumped into the passenger seat next to him. As he stretched across from his seat to mine and kissed me on the lips I noticed a curtain being pulled across from my front room. My mum had most definitely seen Jasper kiss me. I looked up at his face to see his reaction. He simply shrugged before leaning away, his smile reflecting mine.
