Chapter 11

Nowhere to run

JPOV

Bella had left the house close to an hour and that moron came down the stairs grumbling something about going out to hunt. I sighed this was soon going to kill me all this tension in the air. And that was saying something considering how hard it was to kill a vampire. As I relaxed back into the couch where Bella, Esme, and Carlisle had sat earlier I heard a slight gasp and then the sound of feet hitting the floor running full speed down the stairs. I looked over in time to see Alice fly into the room. "You have to stop him before he interrupts Bella!" Alice demanded. Looking at me like I was slow for not understanding what she was talking about. "Alice who am I supposed to stop?" I asked a little annoyed. Alice and I had separated but didn't want the family to worry so we still pretended to be together for their sake. The only person that knew was Edward because I could only remember to keep listing the confederate generals in my head for so long when he was around before I slipped up cussing Edward in my head for my Alice leaving me for Trent. Every couple of weeks Alice would take off to stay in Denali for a couple of weeks coming back again to repeat the pattern, this would continue till after we confessed to the family and then she intended to bring him here to live with us. I had already moved my things from her bedroom to my study but it still brought a growl to my lips any time I thought about the Vampire that stole away my Alice. And now I cussed Edward more often and didn't try to cover it up in my thoughts if he didn't like it then tough shit it would be his problem to deal with

. It was his fault that Trent was now Alice's mate, Edward was the one that wanted to go to the Denali clan. And that was where Alice met Trent. And now that we found out Bella to be a vampire Edward dropped Tanya like yesterdays garbage and wanted to chase after Bella again. Didn't Edward cause enough damage already. First for hurting Bella the way he had then going to Tanya and claiming her to be his mate so that he could try to forget the pain he felt for leaving Bella only to turn around and chase after Bella again when she became a vampire and unwillingly stepped back into our family, and then the biggest strike against him yet was because of him Alice now belong to another. Yes if everyone's emotions didn't soon stop going haywire including my own I was going to go insane or just die which ever happened first.

I sighed and tried to suppress a groan as I looked at Alice. Alice looked like she could kill me right now for not understanding what she was talking about. I tried once more to be calm with her. "Alice I have no idea what you are talking about, who do you want me to stop from interrupting Bella?" Alice shook her head at me before becoming infinitely clear about what she meant. "Edward is going to try to make Bella get back with him, and when he does she is going to run again and leave us!" Alice was all but screaming and the words had hardly left her mouth before I was on my feet running as fast as I could toward the graveyard.

I would always love Alice but I had learned to let her go bit by pain staking bit. Now I loved her like my sister it was the only way I'd be able to still be by her side and not go crazy. Alice and I had planned to tell the family but then with all the fuss over Bella Alice put that topic on a back burner. But oddly I didn't understand why I was pushing myself to my limits to stop that idiot of a brother I had, I mean yes I loved Bella like my favorite sister just like Emmett and I would never want her to hurt again the way she has for 30 plus years but that still did not explain why I was so worked up over the possibility of her leaving again. Of course if Bella did leave I would miss her but did it matter? I don't know why I am acting this way, but when I had first say her coming into the house something felt different from what I used to feel for her. I shook my head as I ran harder to catch up to Edward. Damn it why did he have to be so much fucking faster than me! As I came closer to catching Edward another thought entered my mind why did Alice make me go to stop Edward. Emmett would have loved to run to his favorite sister's rescue, so why did Alice make me go to save Bella from that asshole? I shook my head again oddly feeling like I might get a headache if this kept up.

Then I froze. There was the sweetest sound I had ever heard in all my existence. The sound of a song that was openly bleeding it's mourning song. I listened intently almost in a trance as the strange melody awaked so many different emotions inside of myself. Pain, sorrow, loss, joy, bliss, and heartache I felt it all and as I walked closer I saw a glimpse of Edward dart back into the trees from the opposite side of the graveyard Bella didn't stop playing it was as if she didn't know he had been there. I walked slowly toward Bella's slender figure standing in the moonlight. She was the center of my world as she played her violin and her heart wrenching melody, which seemed to be pulled out of her very soul. I dropped to my knees as I watched her and I could feel the dry sobs begging to be released. Bella opened her golden eyes and looked at me with at first surprise and then she calmed herself and closed her eyes once more to continue playing not seeming to mind an audience as I sat powerless at her feet just a few yards away. As Bella finished her song the last note drawing out long and pleading into the night searching for what I did not know. Bella placed the violin back into its case I didn't know how long I had sat at her feet it could have been hours or days but I wouldn't have noticed as long as she played I would have sat there and listened. "Jasper? Why did you follow me here not that I mind I am just curious?" Bella whispered her voice carried to me colored in sadness and pain. "Alice sent me …" I trailed off not remembering how to form complete sentences and even if I could I didn't know what I would have said to this goddess in front of me. Bella held a strong undeniable power over me and she didn't seem to know it.

Ah how I love to play my violin it seemed to always be able to draw out exactly what I was feeling and morph it into a melody that soothed my very soul. I had been hesitant at first when Victoria had offered to teach me to play, but now I loved it and was so happy to have learned. I was thinking about playing to Charlie and Billy's graves till early morning when no doubt Alice or Rose would come to fetch me. My first song started out a happy little tune but no sooner did I finish I started to allow my fingers to play what I felt and then all my pain tinged the melody with its demands, I played my song I had never played before naming in my head as it touch the strings and rang out into the night sky. This song would be known as Charlie's requiem. I dove right into the next melody that I had worked on for several months to figure out just how it should feel when I though of the Cullen family. At first it was sorrowful and it spoke the volumes of loss I had felt when they had left me and then the melody colored itself with joy as I recalled all the memories that had made me happy. I heard I slight noise and opened my eyes to see Jasper but her had this strange glazed look on his face. Almost like a blind man seeing the sun and stars for the first time. I closed my eyes once more and continued my song it didn't bother me that Jasper was here. When I had finished I put always my violin, which was more precious to me than all my other processions combined. I finally looked at Jasper to ask why he was there. "Jasper? Why did you follow me here not that I mind I am just curious?" I whispered. Jasper stared at me a moment longer trying to form what he wanted to say in his head but looked very dazzled as I used to call it when I was human. "Alice sent me …" was all he said I sighed and then smiled as best I could "thank you I guess she is very impatient to get me alone with her and Rose. Are you going with us shopping?" I asked curious as Jasper and I started to walk back to the Cullen's house. Jasper only nodded I didn't know if he was saying he was going with or if Alice was being impatient. We walked in silence for a bit longer. Though it was not awkward as it had once been for me to be with him. We soon arrived at the house to find Alice jumping up and down in front of me. "Are you ready to shop? Oh and your stuff arrived already but you are not allowed to go to your room till Esme, Emmett, and Carlisle is finished which wont be until late the day after tomorrow afternoon."

I smiled at my sister I was so happy to see her again. "Ok so where are we going to shop Port Angeles?" I asked picking up on her excitement. Alice wrinkled her nose at me. "I finally get the Okay to take you shopping and you have with no complaints from you and you think that I am going to take you to measly old Port Angeles which wont have any of the latest fashions that you will look great in by the way. Hell no first we are going to New York City, then after we shop there we are going to jump a plane and go to London and we might even stop in Paris!" Alice exclaimed. I must have looked like I was ready to bolt out the door because Alice grabbed my left arm as Rose grabbed my right. "Bella you might as well not fight or you wont have any clothes at all to change into, Alice already threw all of your clothes out." Rose warned. I didn't even struggle as I was dragged out of the house and put into Rose's M3. I used to hate the red monster as I used to affectionately call it. In a small town like Fork's it grabbed everyone's attention that laid eyes on it. I sighed in defeat. Yes I was happy to see my sisters after so long a time away from them but I don't think any thing could have prepared me for this.
