Bella sucked in her breath, and waited for Jasper to continue…but when he didn't she questioned him.

"Only vampires who are mates feel warm to each other?" He nodded his head yes, making sure to keep eye contact with her, he was talking to her, explaining. It was strangely comforting she had to admit.

"Jasper the silence after that statement is hardly appropriate." He voiced held a teasing quality and he had to smile. Leave it to Bella to try to lighten the mood.

"Yes…I know but I wanted to give you time to understand what I'm going to say." She looked at him expectantly. Her eyebrow raised in a way that meant he was taking too much time.

"Right. After your birthday I felt horrible thinking I'd done it, tried to attack you. Not many of the Cullen's knew about me before I came to them with Alice, not even Alice truly knows what I'm going to tell you. You remember what I told you about the Southern Wars and my whole story? Well I left something out…I have this…beast of sorts, like another personality but he is me and I'm him. He is the Major, the god of war from the Southern Wars; I think he knew before I did." Jasper didn't stop he couldn't know, the words were just spilling out of his mouth and it was impossible to stop. She had to know everything. He continued on, "He was pushed away after I got together with Alice, she turned me into this person…Jasper Hale and he was pushover, but after Edward…tried. Major broke free, he says it was because he knew you were my mate and he had to protect you. That Alice had deliberately kept us apart or I would have realized soon, but until she realized Edward was hers…and well you know the rest there. But you're my mate, that's why you feel my warmth and why I couldn't stay away, I had to come back…but I wanted you to want me, not because you thought you had to be, I've been taking you out and learning about you because I care deeply for you, and need to be close to you."

He finished and only then looked away from her, he didn't want to feel her emotion at that moment but in the confines of small truck cabin she over powered him. Bella couldn't reject him or he didn't know what he would, Major had to laugh at him, knowing that the great God of War was in the hands of a human girl.

She is our mate, she will understand Even if he was sure, Jasper wasn't.

I hope

Bella had her seatbelt off and was reaching over to him as he looked away from her, she knew. She had known there was something a pull and feeling but she hadn't known how to question it, how to go about getting answers and now she had them and it was exactly what she wanted to hear. She wrapped her arms around his torso and pulled him close, kissing his forehead. She had caught him off guard and it was surprising.

"I knew it was something, I felt you the moment you came back before Rose even knew." He looked up at her his golden eyes looking so vulnerable but so happy.

"Oh Bella," His voice had shifted she noticed, it was still the Texan drawl she loved but it was deeper almost like a growl but very human.

"Darlin, as much as I love holding you I'm thinking we should get to the house…it's getting colder and I can't have you freezing on me." Jasper smiled at her flushed cheeks but she nodded and moved back to her side of the truck. They made it their new home in just as a snow storm was about blow in. Jasper had arranged for himself and Bella to have their own home just a little ways from the main house where Carlisle, Esme, Rose and Emmett would be living, mostly because he was still integrating Major into his daily life and that meant having a place he dominated and was the alpha male.

"Bella I know it may seem like I planned it like this but I didn't. I had chosen to have a home away from Carlisle and the Cullen's because I'm an Alpha, I have my own coven and I can't be under anybody. You Suga, now that you know are my mate, I'd like for you to live with me, but if you chose to wait I'll understand that too." He had stopped at the main house first, giving her the choice, but he would be lying to say he wouldn't want her to choose him.

Bella didn't need time to think, Carlisle and Esme were great and Rose and Em were her family but Jasper was hers, he was easy to talk to, and to be around, she didn't worry about him judging her or trying to do what's he thought was best he let her choose and lead.

"I'd like to live with you Jasper, not that I don't love everyone but I would feel like a child and I'm an adult now." Jasper grinned and threw the truck into its four wheel drive and made the small trek to his house. It was small simply and southern. Two stories with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, kitchen, living, dining and a small library…well perhaps small wasn't the right word but compared to some of the Cullen's homes it was small and it was Jasper had wanted, now he wondered if Bella would like it. He received his answer when her chocolate eyes lit up like a Texas night on the 4th of July. She was silent until she they reached the library then she couldn't contain her giggle and smile.

"It's great! Oh Jasper I love it!" And like that they settled into their home, Jasper brought everything in from the truck and helped her set up her bedroom and fix up some of the neglected parts of the house, they agreed after the storm had past Bella could go shop for food and anything else she wanted. It seemed Bella wasn't opposed to spending money it was just she was conscious about, after a long discussion she agreed she would use Jasper's until she found a job, though Jasper didn't like the thought he didn't mind if she entertained herself with one, what else would she do while they were here? He mused to her she could work from the house and not risk getting caught in the frequent storms.

A couple of weeks passed and Bella had decided she would take some college course for fun and was having a blast studying online and going out on dates with Jasper, even on their home dates. Jasper had sent her into town one day and asked her to go buy a certain book and Bella agreed thinking she would pick up a new book for her to read. What she came home to was the best date she could remember. Jasper had added on a small glass room on to the side of the library like a sunroom, decorated it with lights and fake flowers which Bella found perfect since real flowers would die and she could always remember this the way it was. There was small table by a window that looked over the snow covered mountains and the sky was completely clear. A small candle lit dinner was waiting for her.

"Oh Jasper…" He pulled her chair out for her and they ate, well she ate in comfortable silence until Jasper pulled out a long decorated box.

"For my goddess" It was simple silver chain with a small yellow rose charm that hung from it. He unclasped it, and she pulled her hair aside while he clasped it around her neck. She touched the rose, realizing its meaning, the Yellow Rose of Texas, Jasper's Goddess, his mate. She turned her head quickly and captured his mouth with hers, their first kiss in the glass room, by the candle and moonlight. It was like she'd release him from his control, he tilted her head up and captured her mouth, and his hands went to her sides pulling up from the chair, bringing her closer to his body. Bella responded by wrapping her arms around his neck and deepening the kiss. He pulled away letting her catch her breath. She touched her lips with the tips of her fingers.

"That was our first kiss." She whispered a bright blush on her cheeks, he nodded

"Yes," Before kissing her again. "And that was our second, definitely not the last."

Since that day Jasper kissed her whenever possible, before she went out when she came home and just because she was around, for Bella to have the constant affection was much needed change of pace and she loved it, it was like they were in paradise until a letter from the Cullen's appeared in the mail. Carlisle and Esme were still in Forks, they had said they would stay a couple of more months, and then they would make their up to help Bella. That made her think of how long she had until she was going to be changed, Aro had told them until the end of the year then he would change her weather she was ready or not. She still wanted to do things before she was changed but with it being August she didn't know exactly how to accomplish them before the end of the year.

One night while Jasper was out hunting she sat down and made a list it wasn't concrete it mostly consisted of her dreams, things she knew she could after she changed but also things she couldn't, like have a baby. The thoughts of her nonexistent baby made her remember how far she and Jasper had gone and where they had yet to go. It happened one night when they were settled on the couch watching a new movie Bella had streamed from the internet. It had started innocently enough, they'd been testing their limits and Jasper was much more open minded than Edward had been, it was a experience exploring his body, the scars that decorated his body, the way he moved and the sounds he made.

"Jasper…I want more than this. I want you, I want you to make love to me, I know it's pushing our limits but this is something I want." Jasper couldn't contain his smile, Bella thought he was worried for her safety which he was, but he would not deny her.

"Bella Darlin' I was waiting on you, I'm not Edward I know what I can and can't do, I just didn't want to push you until you were ready," Bella kissed his cheek more than happy with his answer

"You really are amazing you know that?" He kissed her nose,

"So you've told me." Just then Jasper phone beeped. "Hold that thought Darlin', Peter's calling." He had told her about his coven but they hadn't gone into a full conversation about them yet.

"Sure, I'm going to go take a shower." She disappeared up the stairs and he went into his study.

"Shoot," He answered.

Peter couldn't believe what he was seeing, it was completely true. Not even he could have been prepared for what he saw.

"You know what this means don't you Peter?" Charlotte had been in awe and a little envious of the family they found. Hybrids It was something Peter had discovered in an old book about vampires kidnapping humans woman to have their way with them, the stories had stemmed from the South American region so he wanted to check it out but he wasn't expect this, hybrids, he was thinking of stories about women being drained dry or changed but not this.

The family was small, and the mother had died during the birth but the child was fine, apparently had grown up until they looked about 19 to 20 then stopped aging just like vampires. They could go either way drinking blood or eating food. Their father had stayed around to raise them, teach them but then had left leaving them to their aunt and cousin. There were two hybrids they encountered siblings from the same father but different mothers, the second mother survived and seemed happy enough, she was changed, a vampire mother.

"Major will want to know of this…though I doubt he was thinking this is what we would find; I think he was thinking more along the lines of newborns who could control themselves, like Bree." At mention of her name, Bree took Charlotte's hand, who motherly patted the girl's shoulder.

"We should go back, tell Major." The trip had led to Peter's current predicament calling Jasper to explain what they had found.

"Major you won't guess what we found." Jasper smiled at Peter's tone he seemed almost too sure of himself.

"I won't know till you tell me Peter." He heard the other man sigh. "Peter?"

"Hybrids, Major. Hybrids, half vampire, half human, it's possible to get humans pregnant and for them to live." Jasper felt like some had knocked the wind out of his non breathing lungs.

"What?"

"I discovered a note in a old book about vampires taking human women, we traveled to South America to see where the tale came from, what we found was a family of vampires and humans. A vampire mother, two hybrids and human sisters and cousins, the father had stayed only to covert the mother then he left, the hybrids are half siblings, different mothers, the first died in childbirth, they grown up like normal children but stop aging around the age of 18 to 20 then the live as vampires do. It's amazing the Volturi don't know or if they do it's a well guarded secret." Jasper sat down in the chair behind his desk…it was possible to have children? A family?

"Thank you Peter," Jasper stayed on the line just thinking,

"Major…do you think you and your mate would try?" Peter inquired, Jasper sighed not knowing the exact answer.

"I don't know…I don't know whether or not to tell Bella." Just then Bella walked into the room her hair still wet from her shower trailing down her back leaving little wet spots.

"Tell Bella what?" she questioned running a brush through her hair, she was wearing one of his shirts and her shorts.

"I'll talk to you later Peter." He promptly disconnected, motioning for Bella to come sit on his lap.

You need to tell her, if you keep this a secret…and she finds out you denied her a choice…you would be no better than the worthless mind reader

I'm not going to deny her a choice…I couldn't do that…she deserved my complete honesty

"That was Peter on the phone, he told me he changed a girl when they killed Victoria, she was very controlled for a newborn so I asked them to look into other anomalies I just never expected them to find this." He got up and started pacing. Bella sat quietly waiting for him to continue.

"Jasper?" He quickly continued on.

"It's possible for vampires and humans to…to have a baby. That's what they found…hybrids." Bella sat back against the chair letting it soak it. A baby? It was possible to have a baby and a family…the dream she knew was impossible was now suddenly an option.

"Talk to me Jasper don't just pace and expect me to know what to say…" She got up and wrapped her arms around him, her hand on his chest, and her chest pressed against his back while he stared out the window.

"I don't know what to feel Bella, I could give you everything you wanted, but you could die…it's dangerous, the two they found are only half siblings, the first, his mother died while he was born…I can't lose you Bella not when I just found you." He turned around gathering her into his arms and holding her close. She wiggled her arms free and held him, her hands rubbing his back and running through his hair.

"Jasper, you forget that woman was probably all alone, for all you know the father wasn't there and didn't know what to do, we have family, and you haven't even let me decide." He pulled back and let her talk. "I need time to think, I won't lie and say I don't want a family, I never thought it was an option, but now…well maybe we could, Carlisle is a doctor he would be able to watch me, and with everything I'm sure Peter's gathered we would pretty well off right?" He nodded because he saw her side, they had a better chance here where they knew what they were dealing with and how to make sure Bella would be okay.

"Is that what you want Darlin'?" He questioned brushing one of the wet strands away from her face.

"Let's just go curl up on the bed okay? We'll talk about it in the morning and we can call Carlisle and see what he thinks, once we've talked about it, together, we'll make a decision, okay?" He smiled at his mate she always knew what to say and how to go about things when his head was spinning with the possibilities.

That night while Bella slept Jasper had Peter send him everything he found including the after effects he knew Peter would have been through in his research. He read everything and found Bella was right, with their situation differ would possibly be their saving grace.

While Jasper was up reading, Bella slept quietly but her dreams were entirely different matter.

"Momma look! Stars!" A small girl raced out in front of her and pointed up at the sky, she wore a simple baby pink dress and her light brown hair was tied back in two ponytails, she glowed in the moonlight.

"Stars momma." A little boy who looked about the same age tug on her hand and lead her to the girl, he was dressed in jean overalls and a blue shirt his blond curls peaking out under his baseball cap.

"It's a beautiful night isn't Suga?" Jasper had his arm around her while the children played in the night air.

"It is, I love you." She kissed his cheek and leaned her head against his shoulder.

"My Bella, Bella"

"Bella?" She awoke with a gasp and sweat dripping down her neck, Jasper looked at her with concern in his eyes. "Are you okay?" She realized it was just a dream, only a dream.

"Yes, sorry I'm fine…just had a dream and it was so real…" she trailed off while she tied her hair up and off her neck.

"You wanna talk about it Darlin'" She shook her head,

"No, it's just a dream I'm fine. Ready to call Carlisle and see if this is even possible?" She didn't want to waste time that dream had affected her resolve and despite what she had told Jasper…now it more than a possibility it was a want.

He kissed her forehead and they went to the study to call Carlisle.

After several hours of discussion between Carlisle, Bella and Jasper, as well as Peter and Charlotte, it was concluded it would be safe for the couple to try, if they chose to have a child. Bella had left Jasper to disconnect with the others and she went to the glass room staring at the falling snow and visions of children playing flashed before her eyes.

"Darlin' there's no pressure okay?" Jasper came in with a hot cup of tea and handed it to her. She took a sip.

"I want to Jazz…I just can't stop thinking about it, I dreamed about them last night, I see them now in the snow…I think I want to try." She sounded so certain and sure of herself it made Jasper and Major proud she was their mate, Bella was a strong confident woman if she said she could handle it then she could, and she would have the God of War to protect and see to her every need, she would be fine.

"You say the word Suga, I'm kind of excited about it, I never thought I could have a child, I hope she looks like you," He mused holding his mate to his chest as they watched the snow.

"I think he'll look like you Jazz."

A/N: Okay everyone still with me? I know it's kind of fast, but I'm a chessy ball for babies and I think Bella and Jasper deserve it, but of course their happiness needs some drama! No worries the plot will thicken remember there's still Edward and Alice as well as Aro. A lot happened in this chapter and I know it seemed fast but weeks/months have passed and they are a lot closer than before and they are mates so it kind of speeds up the process. I thought this would be a good stopping place and now I'm on to Chapter 7 so hopefully it will be out soon maybe tomorrow or tonight or by the end of the week. But reviews feed me so the more reviews I get the fast you get your chapters. Much love, Pheonix
