It took me a minute to realise what was happening, one minute I was in MY jaspers arms and the next second I was in damons. It all happened too fast, but still I should learn from my pat that that is vampires for you. Jasper was screaming at a little woman with pitch black hair which was in a short pixie hair style, I wouldn't have my hair like that but in all honesty it looked good on her. He was screaming "stop Alice what are you doing" so that was her name Alice I wondered who she was and what she was doing here with my love. My man. My fiancé. Not hers. The man who had earlier introduced himself as Carlisle was looking at the whole situation with a look of fear and wonder on his face, I don't think that he understood what was going on. Then in a second he got off to work trying to get them to stop screaming at each other, the screaming was violent enough to break glass and I wondered how it didn't break the fragile looking glass of the big open plan house that they occupied. I was still in Damon's arms, he was still protecting me from getting hurt by the female called Alice like a proper man should. We where both staring at the situation looking, not knowing what to do or what to say. Inside I felt a bit guilty for causing this to happen. But in my heart I knew that fate had led me to seek shelter in this house in the middle of a little town. But then again I felt good for them fighting as this would help me to get my man back. Just like my mother had taught me to.

I was scared for her not for me but her. We all knew just how dangerous Alice could be if she felt threatened or felt that i was not going to be there for her and would leave her for someone like Rebecca. Someone so perfect that I made the angels look bad .but in reality I hadn't married Rebecca I had married Alice and that was not something I was going to walk away from. But the more I saw the lovely Rebecca the more I remembered just how much that I really loved her. The way she said my name, the way the letters rolled off of her tongue and the way that when we where younger and on chaperoned strolls through the parks and grounds of my family's estate and she would hold my hand and when she would allow me to kiss her in secret without her nanny seeing when I would say goodnight. When I saw her in Damons arms I couldn't help but feel a tad bit jealous of the fact that he my best friend was the one comforting MY Rebecca.

The more that i looked into Jaspers amber eyes the more i saw that by reacting the way that i was i was hurting him. I realised that i didn't even know what was going on, for all i know she could be his sister. So i stopped. i stopped my shrieking and yelling and put my head down, to signify that i was surrendering. When i finally looked up i saw that in jaspers face was gratitude and thanks, i smiled back.

In a calm voice i said "jasper can we all go and sit somewhere more comfortable to talk about what is going on."

He smiled and replied "of course we can darling, lets go to the living room"

I nodded and we all took a seat. Jasper and me on the sofa and Rebecca and Damon who still had a protective arm around her, he was still glaring at me. And Carlisle and Stefan in the arm chairs. I looked at Rebecca and noticed what she was wearing and frowned. Then i said to her "Rebecca before we start do you want to come with me and get changed into something more comfortable." She nodded and looked at me with a grateful smile. I led her up to mine and Jaspers room where i laid out some PJ's for her to wear. They were a pink vest top and some plaid bottoms. She smiled but looked slightly taken aback by the fact that they where bottoms and not a night gown but still took them and changed into them. After she was changed i led her to the dressing table and took her hair out of its complicated up do and brushed it and put it into a pony tail. We then walked down the grand staircase and rejoined the group. I then signalled Jasper to begin.

I smiled as Rebecca and Alice came back into the lounge. I couldn't help but notice that she looked so different in 21st Century clothes compared to the 19th Century clothes that she had arrived in. She looked so strange wearing trousers instead of the long flowing dresses that she was so used to wearing. She must have found it weird to have been locked away in 1864 and to come back out in 2011.

I was snapped out of my daydream by Alice signalling me to start explaining so i did.

"First of all i would like to introduce Misters Stefan and Damon Salvatore who where my best friends in my human life. And Miss Rebecca Jones who i was engaged to before i was changed by maria". Alice looked at me sadly but i reassured her by saying to low for the others to hear " its you that i married not her so i love you darling". She smiled and whispered to me that she loved me. I then continued to tell them how me and Rebecca had been forced to meet and that the engagement was arranged, i also explained how i had been changed by Maria and how i had met Alice to the Salvatore's and Rebecca. When it was all explained Stefan asked if it was ok for them to go to bed, Carlisle smiled and said that Rebecca could have his and Esme's room and Stefan could have Edwards and Damon could have mine and Alice's.

Rebecca stood up and gracefully walked around to Carlisle and gave him a gentle hug and kissed his cheek. She proceeded to do the same to Stefan, Damon and Alice until she got to me and hugged me and as she kissed my cheek she whispered to me "i am glad that you are happy Jasper and even though i loved you once i cannot put what you have here to waste, so can we be friends" she looked at me with her big eyes and i simply said yes, with that she skipped off upstairs to bed.

After she was gone i turned to face Carlisle and Alice and we talked until the morning. As me and Alice went to change into clean clothes i couldn't help but think about what would happen when the others came home.
