'So?' Bella asked, turning to face me. 'What's it got to do with us? We didn't piss her off, and we don't eat like wimps.' She frowned, her forehead wrinkling.
'That's a good question.' I told her, placing a tender kiss to her forehead, before looking at Carlisle. 'How are we involved?' I asked him.
'Son... We need your help. You 4 are the only people we know who knows about newborns...' He trailed off.
I pushed Bella off my lap, and started pacing. This was a nervous/annoyed habit of mine I had brought over from my human life. 'Carlisle... I don't know what to say. You forget about me for 17 years, and as soon as the rest of you precious little family is in danger, you come running to me? I thought you were supposed to be the one who was best at everything.' I told him, thinking of all the times he had chastised me for slipping up.
'Jasper please, it's not like that. We never forgot about you!' Esme insisted.
'You're lying Esme. I can feel you. Or did you forget that too?' I sneered, rubbing my face with my hands. Yet another habit I had brought with me.
Bella walked over to me and rubbed my arm. 'You're projecting Jay.' She whispered. I quickly regained control of my gift and reeled in the excess emotions.
'Jasper, please. You're our best hope.' Carlisle pleaded.
'Look Carlisle, if it was just me and you, I wouldn't mind helping. But now I've got Char and Pete and especially Bella. I'm not willing to risk their safety.' I shook my head. I didn't even let Bella or Char go to the minor fights with other armies. I wouldn't let Peter go either, but Maria commanded him too.
'But then you'll be risking our safety.' Edward frowned.
'But you aren't my family. Only Rose and Em are.' I told them, sitting back down. Bella began to rub my arm.
'Don't say that Jasper.' Esme gasped.
'I mean it Esme.' I frowned, leaning back in my chair.
'Jay? Wanna go upstairs. You need to relax.' Bella told me, rubbing my cheek with her thumb. I nodded, and leaned into her hand.
'I guess we'll have to talk about this tomorrow.' I sighed, and stood up. 'You can stay here for the night I guess. Pete show them around. Or make em' stay in the shed. Personally, I don't mind.' I shrugged, standing and throwing Bella over my shoulder. She squeaked in surprise.
'We'll be in our room.' I told them, as Bella slapped my ass. 'If you wait a few seconds Darlin', we'll be alone.' I reminded her.
'Well, maybe you should stop blabbin' and MOVE.' She said annoyed, as she kicked my leg.
'Ow, god damn it woman, I'm goin'.' I told her as I ran up the stairs. I could hear Em laughing.
'Are they always like that?' He asked. Peter sighed.
'Yep. They are very impatient.' Charlotte giggled.
When we reached our room, I opened the door and gently placed Bella on our bed. 'I love you.' I whispered, as I kicked off my shoes, and scampered onto the bed next to her.
'I love you too.' She whispered back, leaning up. I responded immediately, by grabbing her face in between my hands and bringing my lips to her own. We sighed at the contact. She pulled away gently.
She smiled, the frowned, brushing a few blonde curls out of my face. 'As much as I hate to say Jasper, I really think you ought to help them.' Bella whispered, resting her chin on my chest.
'I know. But I really don't want to.' I replied, as I ran my hands through her hair. We were silent for a few minutes. 'I'll tell 'em in the mornin'.' I promised. 'Can we sleep?' I asked, fiddling with her luscious hair. She nodded.
'Night Jay.' I felt sleep engulf me as Bella pushed her power out.
I awoke in the morning completely indulged in my favourite smell – Bella.
'Mmm...' I moaned, pulling her closer and nuzzling my face in her hair.
'Mornin' handsome.' Bella greeted, running her hands over my bare chest. 'You slept for a long time. Longer than normal.' She told me.
'What can I say?' I grinned down at my little angel, that was currently residing in my arms. She giggled.
'Mm...' She moaned, closing her eyes and laying down.
'JIZZABELLA! JAPSER! GET YOUR SEXY LITTLE ASS' DOWN HERE.' Peter shouted from somewhere down below.
Bella groaned in protest and buried herself into my chest. 'Why do we keep him?' She asked me.
I chuckled. 'He provides entertainment?' I provided, fiddling with her hair.
'He's adorable aswell. Like a puppy.' She told me. We heard footsteps run up the stairs before Peter burst into our room. Looking demented, may I add.
He ran in the room, scooped up Bella and ran back to the door. He paused and looked at me over his shoulder. 'Hasta la Vista, baby.' He called (in a bad accent), before darting off.
I snorted, and pulled on some sweat pants before walking down stairs. I nodded to acknowledge Carlisle and Esme. I hugged Rose and Em. And tried to ignore Alice and Edward.
'You can't avoid me forever Jazzy. We're souls mates - me and you, not that little tramp.' Alice winked running her hand down my chest. I grabbed her wrist and snapped her hand clean off. She screamed.
'Carlisle, please try to tame her. If need be, put her on a leash.' I told him, walking over to my family.
'Hey gorgeous.' I said, sitting next to Bella. She beamed at me and kissed me on the lips.
'Well hello there.' She looked over to Peter. 'Jas, he's trying to make me watch Saw with him... Again.' She complained. I laughed.
'Don't bring me into this.' I chuckled, holding my hands up.
'PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!' Peter begged, kneeling on the floor, throwing his arms around her knees and holding on for dear life.
'Oh lord save me now.' She whined. 'Char? Help me!' She pouted.
Char just laughed. 'This is your problem, sexy.' She grinned, winking. Bella sighed.
'MUTINY!' She cried. 'Fine. Go get the damn DVD Peter.' She relented.
His face lit up like a Christmas tree. '! Bella, you're the bestest best friend in the whole wide world EVER!' He ran off and came back a few seconds later with the DVD. Giggling like a small child, he put in the DVD, and snuggled up to Bella excitedly.
She sighed, and ran her fingers through his hair. I chuckled at them and walked into my study. I turned on my computer. I was checking my emails when Carlisle walked in.
'Jasper...' He started. 'I'm so sorry. We didn't try hard enough to contact you, but believe me when I said we all missed you.' He frowned, taking a seat on the other side of my desk.
'I find that hard to believe.' I told him, turning back to my computer desk. 'I just can't trust you anymore.' He sighed.
'You have no reason to trust me Jasper.' He said honestly.
I stared at him for a minute, testing his emotions, before sighing. 'I'll help you Carlisle. I won't like it, I don't want to, but it's the right thing to do.' I told him, frowning. 'But I warn you know, If any of my family gets hurt, yours will too. Even if I have to do it myself.' I told him. He nodded grimly.
Edward walked into the room. 'Haven't you heard of knocking you ass lump?' I asked, closing my laptop.
'I can't hear your mind anymore, why?' He demanded. I snorted.
'Oh hell no. You are in my house, how dare you just walk in here like you own the place, and demand for me to tell you something!' I snarled, standing up, so I towered over him. 'And as for your question, I see no reason for me to tell you.'
'Why can't I know?' He asked, growling.
'It's not mine to tell.' I answered cryptically. 'Carlisle, we will discuss plans later in the week. You will all need to come to the camp with us so you can train. If you go in untrained, you will be killed in seconds.' I told them, nodding, before getting up and walking into the longue.
Bella looked up at me helplessly. 'HELP.' She mouthed. I smiled.
Peter was sprawled across her lap, staring at the TV in admiration. He really scared me sometimes.
'You two look like you're having fun.' I smiled, leaning on the back of the sofa. Bella glared at me and opened her mouth to reply, but Peter cut her off.
'I'm having a blast! I've never had this much fun without Lubricant!' He grinned. I snorted. I still couldn't understand how he could quote Saw in pretty much every situation.
'Jasper, get me out of here.' Bella whimpered, holding her arms out to me.
I walked over to her and pulled her up from underneath Peter. He fell off the sofa, and landed with an 'Oomph.' I smirked. 'Peter, I'm taking my mate now.' I told him, walking into the dining room with her.
'Thanks Jay.' She smiled, wrapping her legs around my waist, and kissing me gently. I purred into her mouth, and set her down gently in one of the free seats.
I soon claimed the one next to her.
Unfortunately, so did Edward. I glared at him, pulling her slightly closer to me.
'So Bella,' He began, smiling at her. 'I've always been able to read Jasper's mind, and now you appear, and I can't read anyone's. Care to explain?' He asked, trying to dazzle her with his eyes.
She smiled sexily back at him. 'No. Care to fuck off?' She asked sweetly, while flipping him off. He stared at her in shock.
'Oh, I like her. She's feisty.' Emmett grinned from across the table, his arm casually slung over Rose's shoulder.
'Oh Em, you have no idea.' She grinned, pulling at a loose thread on my shirt, which she was still wearing.
Rose laughed. 'She's perfect for you Jasper – Funny, Possessive, Kind, Friendly and Fuck Hot.' She winked, licking her lips.
'Well, Rosie, anytime you wanna join us in the bedroom, feel free.' My girl winked, grabbing my hand.
Emmett looked like a kid on Christmas morning. 'Me too?' He asked eagerly.
'No.' I stated. 'I don't share.' His face fell.
'Jasper's insanely protective.' Char explained. 'His brother isn't even allowed to be with them like that.' She told him.
'That's because Bella is mine.' I growled, pulling her closer to me. Em held his hands up.
'I'm not gonna do anything Jazz.' I relaxed a bit, releasing Bella slightly. Em snorted.
'Man, you're whipped.' He laughed.
'So are you.' Rose told him, hitting the back of his head.
'OW! Rosie!' He pouted. She rolled her eyes and pecked his lips.
Carlisle walked into the room, and I nodded to him. 'We should discuss what's going to happen now.' I told him, gesturing for him to take a seat. Both Esme and Peter appeared in the room and sat down aswell.
'You'll all need to be trained, otherwise you'll walk into the fight and just die.' I told them grimly.
Alice laughed. 'I'm sure it can't be that bad.'
I laughed without humour. 'Trust me Alice, It's worse. You can't imagine the stuff I've done and seen.'
'Look, we're going back to camp soon. If you want our help, and want to survive you better come with us.' Peter told them, crossing his arms over his chest.
'When the wars started,' Bella began softly. 'No one had any idea how to train newborns. As the years have gone on, every army developed their own strategy.. Their own way to survive. Fighting has become more complex and skilled. Without learning how to fight, you'll die within seconds.' She finished and snuggled further into my chest.
Carlisle sighed. 'Will anyone get hurt?' He asked.
'In training, no one is in danger. We mock fight. No one gets bitten or killed.' Char informed them. Carlisle nodded.
'If that's the only choice we have, we'll do it.' He answered. I looked at him and nodded.
'Very well. Now if you'll excuse us, we are going to enjoy the rest of our weekend.' I grinned, grabbing Bella up and running to the stairs.
'Horny Bastards.' Peter called after us.
The rest of the weekend was fast for me and Bella. I needed to reassure us both that the fact the Cullen's were here wouldn't change our relationship at all.
I hope.
So yeah...
