Emily's P.O.V.

There were no human scents coming from this house. Even if there were, it was overpowered by the smell of my own kind. How the hell did a huge coven exist in one house for any length of time? The population of nearby towns must be, like, seven. But why did they stay in a house? There was no need to sleep, no need to rest. This must be a new lifestyle, one that I haven't encountered yet. Before I could think another thought, a woman, who looked more like a girl, came out of the house. She was like me. Pale skin, no heat radiating from her body. She was short in the extreme and had spiky black hair. What I wasn't expecting were her strange golden eyes.

She spoke.

"She's not here to hurt us, guys," she said in a twinkling voice. "She was just wandering."

Wait a minute, how does she know that I wasn't there to hurt them? Maybe she was a mind-reader like Aro, but she can hear from a distance. That must be it. Two men came out of the house next. The big one looked about twenty and he had dark, curly hair. The other was an inch or so shorter, and he was less burly. He had a mop of honey-blonde hair. I would know that hair anywhere.

"Jasper," I breathed, awestruck. As soon as I spoke his name, his eyes locked on mine.

"Emily," he said, relieved, but also laced with disbelief. I ran to him as fast as my legs would carry me. I knocked him into a hug, and it was too bittersweet. A realization hit me.

"You left me in that hellhole for three goddamn years!" I yelled at him. I said this as I brought my fist as hard as I could down on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry," he apologized.

"You sure as hell better be sorry."

"I know. It wasn't fair to leave you."

"I know why you did it. But you still could have told me," I said, my voice softening.

"You wouldn't have let me go," he said.

"No. I wouldn't have," I said with a small smile. My smile faded as I realized how he could possibly be here. "If I didn't let you go, you wouldn't be here."

Things got uncomfortably silent as Jasper and I were still clinging to each other. I was vaguely aware of the other seven people on the porch, staring in shock. The only one who didn't look at all shocked was a bronze-haired boy. He looked maybe seventeen or eighteen. The burly man stared at us with a confused look on his face, and the small black-haired woman was looking at me with hatred in her glare. She had seemed so happy and nice when she had spoken before…

"Yes, Alice can be like that sometimes."

It was the bronze-haired boy who had spoken. I detached myself from Jasper's grip.

"My name is Edward Cullen," he said. He held out his hand for a shake, but he seemed like someone who would have and extra power, due to the fact that he had known what I was thinking. I didn't want to risk the chance that he might get angry.

"I promise I won't get angry. You have an extremely unique talent. Use it," he advised. I shook his hand, and a sudden swarm of thoughts invaded my head. I quickly tuned it out. So this boy, Edward, was the mind reader. That was cool.

"Thank you," he said, responding to my thoughts.

"You're welcome. I think," I said. There was a flurry of laughter from the porch and a booming laugh from the man next to Jazz.

"How do you know Jasper's nickname?" Edward asked.

"I was the one who started calling him that. Wasn't I?" I asked Jasper. My human memories were not what they used to be.

"Yes, you were. I was a little surprised when you all started to call me that. It brought back a lot of memories," said Jasper.

"You've never thought about it before," Edward said. Jasper never thought of me? It made me feel like a little part of me had died.

"They were human memories. They were faded," Jasper answered. The inky-haired woman was fuming. "I suppose I should introduce everyone," he concluded.

"Please do," I replied.

"Okay, everyone, this is Emily Morgan. Em, this is-"

"Don't call me 'Em'," I snapped. I hadn't snapped at him in over a hundred years. "Sorry, Emily, this is Emmett, Bella, Carlisle, Esme, Edward Cullen, Jacob Black, Nessie Cullen, Rosalie Hale, and my wife, Alice," he finished.

WIFE? Since when did Jasper have a wife? I was supposed to be his wife. He had promised me that much. At first, Jasper and I were planning on having a family of our own. Then, when we realized that it wasn't possible, because I was now a vampire, he had promised me that he would marry me if it was the last thing he did. Now none of it was possible.

"I know you may not understand this now, but Alice and Jasper are the other halves of each others' hearts," Edward said. I had thought those words all those years ago. Alice still glared at me with hateful eyes.

"Cool it, Alice," said Edward and Jasper. Alice's scowl turned into more of a pout. I could sense the confusion coming from everyone on the porch. Oh, so this was Jasper's power.

"Feeling and manipulating emotion. It suits you," I told him. He smiled. Not that he wasn't smiling before. But I needed an answer to one of my burning questions. "I really don't want to be rude or anything, but why do you all have gold eyes?" I asked. They all laughed. Except Alice.

"Alice, either be nice and welcoming like you were less than an hour ago or I'm burning your credit and debit cards and canceling all of your store credit," Jasper threatened. Alice's eyes widened with fear.

"You wouldn't," she said, barely above a whisper. The look on his face gave her her answer. Oh, yes he would. "I'm sorry, Emily. Please forgive me. I just wasn't expecting you to know him that well," she apologized. Everyone looked at me with puzzled eyes, except for Edward. He was smirking at Jasper.

"It's alright, Alice. I forgive you," I said. I wasn't one to hold a grudge. Her behavior was more confusing that hurtful.

"Alice is always confusing," joked Edward. We all laughed.

"Really, Edward. You need to stop doing that," I said.

"Doing what?" Edward asked with an innocent look on his face. He looked like a little boy who had gotten caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

"Oh, thanks for the compliment," he said, complete with an eye roll.

"You're welcome," I said.

I was still amazed at how the two humans, Jacob and Nessie, could be around the Cullens. Don't they know about the Volturi?

"Oh, we know about the Volturi. Jacob isn't human. He's a shapeshifter/werewolf. We haven't decided what to call him yet," said Edward.

"Thanks, Edward," said Jacob, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

"And Nessie is Bella's and my daughter," Edward continued.

" How did you manage that?" I asked incredulously.

"Why don't you explain inside, Edward. It's going to rain in thirteen seconds," said Alice.

Ugh. Rain. I turned to Jasper. "Is she serious?" I asked with an impressed expression.

"Always uncannily accurate," he said. "Alice gets visions of future events." Hmm. Interesting. I dashed behind the rest, into the house.
