Sorry it took so long to update. I've being really busy choosing my options at school and I've being visiting lots of old friends, so it was really hard to find time.
Well here is chapter 5, I hope it was worth the wait!!! :)
Chapter 5 Discussion
Jasper seemed to have a natural talent for hunting animals. He didn't do a single thing wrong. He caught the animal without hesitation and was soon tucking into his deer.
I was getting a lot better at hunting, I didn't get a single drop of blood on my clothes this time.
Once our thirst was under control, we went in search of somewhere to sit and discuss where we were going to go now.
We ran hand-in-hand through the nearby woods looking for somewhere to talk. All the time we were running Jasper had a large smile on his face and he barely kept his eyes off me. I smiled too, feeling happy that he was happy. We found a little field, with lots of flowers, shadowed by lots of trees. It was the perfect place to have a private discussion.
Jasper was still smiling as we sat down on the damp grass, he never let go of my hand. We remained silent for a while, just looking at each others faces. I was the first one to break the peaceful silence.
"Jasper, you seem to be happy around me..." he looked a little worried.
"Yes?" he prompted when I hesitated
"Well, why?"If his face looked worried before, then now it looked terrified. He looked away for a moment before he answered.
"Ever since I was changed into a vampire, I've never felt truly happy in another vampire's company. I didn't mind being with Maria, but that's only because I thought that was the only way to be a vampire. I was never told that there were other ways to exist whilst being a vampire. Then I met you and you accepted me straight away, you are a kind person and you are not bothered by my past. When I left Maria, I was worried that no one would like me because of my past. Then you accepted me so easily and a huge weight was lifted from my shoulders and it was an enormous relief to feel like somebody cared about me." His eyes never drifted from mine as he spoke. There was no hint of dishonesty in his voice, but there was still a lot of worry on his face.
"I do care about you, You're the first vampire I've ever met and this is the happiest I've felt in months. When I look into your eyes I don't see a stranger, I see a true friend that I will always be able to rely on and you can always rely on me. " The worry seemed to disappear from his face a little bit with every word I spoke. By the time I had finished speaking, the worry had completely disappeared and he was smiling again.
"I will always be here for you. I will never leave your side. I will come with you to find The Cullens, even if it takes an eternity." But where were we going to start?
"Thank you Jasper. Where do you think we should start looking?" He thought for a minute, then his face lit up.
"well since we're already in America, why don't we start looking here? It sounded like a good plan.
"sounds like a good idea. Lets get started!" I bounced up, pulling Jasper with me. He looked amused at my enthusiasm.
We walked at a human pace to the edge of the field, when we got there Jasper stopped suddenly. I looked at him, confused,
"What's wrong?" I asked him. He hesitated before answering.
"Alice, I meant every word I said to you. I will stay with you for an eternity, even if we don't find The Cullens."
I felt a little confused. I knew he would stay with me forever, Why was he telling me? I looked into the future only to see me and Jasper holding hands and smiling. I came back the the present, and I realised that Jasper was caressing my cheekand leaning towards my face.
Before I could react, Jasper kissed me.
