Jaspers POV

I woke up to someone talking. I sat up and realized I was on the couch. I must have fell asleep here after my mother told me what happen to Bella. I know I was crying for a while. Thinking of how stupid I was to think she wanted to be with Edward. I only had today to be here and I had to go back. I made a commitment to the Army and needed to be there to fulfill that commitment. How was I gonna be here for her and be there to. Just then Edward came into the living room and sat in the chair,placing his head in his hands. He must not have seen me as he walked in. I seen him wince as he placed his one hand on his wound by accident. Looking at him and thinking of that accident. Thinking of everything our mother explained. Wondering if it it was worse I could have lost them both. My brother means a lot to me. He might be in love with the same girl as me but we have had a lot more time and memories together.

"Hey Brother"...I said and watched as he looked up at me.

"Oh Jasper,I'm sorry I didn't know you were in here I can go"...I watched as he got up to walk away.

"No Edward don't go I don't want us to fight. I'm sorry I accused you last night and tried to fight with you."...he sat back in the chair facing me. He looked like he was ready to listen. We needed to talk we needed to say what we needed to say.

"I didn't mean for that accident to happen Jasper I never want to see Bella hurt"

"I know that now,I realize you do love her and I can't stop you from loving her. But you need to know that I love her too."

"Oh believe me I know you do. You were going to get married. When I heard that I was upset,I didn't want anything to do with you"

"I know and I know that you tried to show her how you felt and she didn't ignore or try to stop you. She seen she loved you too"

"Well she did try to stop me and she told me she was in love with you,but I felt like we had a connection too."

"Yeah after that night you came to Seattle she wasn't the same,she seemed different. I know why now"

"We did have a moment that night"

"What kind of moment?"...I looked at him confused and feeling a little angry.

"Well I kissed her that night...In the parking lot"...I watched him as he said it and he looked down and smiled a little.

"C'mon Edward,what the fuck man. You knew she was engaged to me and you kiss her"

"Well yeah I mean I love her what am I supposed to do"

"well your supposed to let it go,let her be happy with me and move on."

"I just couldn't I mean I can't"

"Well tell me how she reacted to the kiss"

"No you don't want to know details man that's not cool"

"No I do want to know"

"No I wont"...I was beginning to feel more pissed as he was telling me no.

"did you force her or did she want to do it?"

"Fine but don't go all crazy and make me bust your nose more"

"I'm not even gonna get up"

"Okay,well I kissed her expecting to get smacked in the face or hit or something and she actually kissed me back"...I felt like she lied to me,she didn't care about our engagement.

"She lied to me, when she came back up she looked flustered kinda out of it. I asked her what was wrong and asked her if you did something to her and she said no."...I thought for a second to what it was she said.

"Actually she said something about how you were nice to her"

"I'm not going to apologize for kissing her"

"No it's fine,I mean if she really wants to be with you and loves you. I wont be like you and beg or try to get her back. I will let her be happy"...Then I heard Alice in the doorway.

"If you love her set her free"...We both looked up at her.

"How long have you been listening?"... I said to her.

"I've been listening and watching you all for years"...Edward and I just looked at each other then back to her.

"so what else do you know Alice?"...She walked in and sat on the furthest end of the couch. I turned to look at her. She tucked her legs in and sat Indian style. She looked at me then to Edward.

"Well I guess I could start at the beginning when Bella was seeing Edward and sneaking around with Jasper. But I already know you know that story. So I guess we'll just fast forward to now. Lets start with the other night,the first night Bella came here with Jasper. When I saw the way Edward looked at her I knew it wasn't over for him. It didn't matter that he brought Irina to dinner she was just to make Bella jealous or something. Then when Bella got up to use the bathroom. Edward you followed her. Little did you both know I wasn't to far away. I went to the kitchen and when I went back to the table I passed the hall and saw you both"...I was glued to every word Alice was saying. And when she stopped and was looking at Edward. I knew what she didn't have to say.

"Was that the only time you saw them?"...Edward looked at me then to Alice.

"Alice you don't need to do this."

"No Edward he needs to know,If she really is in love with either of you I can see it's you Edward. The way she tries to not look at you but does,then when she does she lights up like that Christmas tree"...I watched as she pointed to the tree that was on a timer and lit up at 6 am every morning.

"I want to know,it's okay Edward"...I watched Edward shake his head and look down.

"okay Alice tell him then tell him what else you know"

"Well yesterday I saw Edward give Bella a gift and then he..."...She stopped and just looked at Edward . He shook his head yes and she looked at me and went on.

"Well he took her hand and they went to the guest bedroom. They were in there a minute or two. I told Bree to call for Bella. Thats when I saw her sneak out of the bedroom. I darted back to the living room before she seen me. Emmett was the only one who noticed your hair Edward"

"Edward what happened in the bedroom?"...He looked up at me.

"We just kissed...a lot"

"I know what I should do now"

"What are you going to do Jasper?"...said Alice

"I'm gonna set her free"...I got up and walked upstairs to the larger bathroom. I cleaned up. Went to my dads room looking for him but not finding him. I wrote a quick note that said I would no longer need this. I grabbed the ring from my pocket and placed it on the bed with the small note,then walked out down the stairs and to the front door. I grabbed my keys and before I could leave my mother stopped me.

"Where are you going?"

"I have to say good bye to Bella before I leave mom,I want to be alone when I tell her"

"You know that's silly why would you tell her goodbye? You'll be back next month."

"No mom I'm not going to take that leave and I wont be back then,I just talked with Edward and to Alice,who apparently knows everything about everyone. And her advice is the best I got."

"What was that exactly?"

"She said if I love her to set her free. I'm going to do just that. She seems to really love Edward and I'm okay with that. I'm just glad I found out now."

"Your very strong Jasper,go do what you have to do"

"Thanks Mom"...I hugged her and went out the door.

I arrived at the hospital and asked to see Bella. Of course they asked me who I was and why I wanted to visit. After to many questions they told me where to find her. I walked down the hall and found where she was. I walked in slowly. I saw Charlie sleeping in a chair near her bed. I walked in and he must have heard my footsteps. He woke up.

"Hey Jasper,she's still out. They said it might take a long time before she wakes up,I'm glad your here now. Maybe if she hears you she'll want to wake up"

"I don't know about that sir."

"Why is that?"

"Well it's a long story,but basically I found out she loves my brother. The reason why he drove her home was because I was upset with her for kissing him."

"Oh I see,well I'm sorry"

"The only reason I came was to say good bye to her,I have to go back to Texas"

"Alright,in that case I guess I'll leave you two alone. I need some coffee any ways."

"Thank You sir."...He nodded his head and walked out of the room.

I pulled a chair up next to her,I looked at her and all the things that were connected to her,she had tubes in her head in her mouth. There were monitors and things to help her breath. She looked puffy. Not her self at all. I broke down and started to cry. I love her how can I set her free. I just want her to live and wake up and come home with me. I wont set her free. I can't. I have to hope she will wake up and just want to be with me again. So I told her just that. I took her hand and held it.

"Bella,I think you can hear me,I'm not sure. I just want you to know I love you and I will miss you every single day that I'm gone. I will call when ever I can to find out how you are and I wont stop loving you. Edward and I talked and I know everything,or almost everything. It hasn't stopped me from loving you. I won't give up,not yet Bella not yet."...I kissed her cheek.

"Goodbye my love I will see you soon."...I walked out of the room I saw Charlie standing there waiting to go back in.

"Jasper take care"

"Thanks,I will and I'll call soon to see how she is"

I got back to my parents house and packed up my stuff. I remembered that Bella still had her truck at the airport I had her keys in the rental car. I walked down with my stuff and went to the door. Everyone came over to say goodbye. My sisters hugging me half to death. After everyone said good bye I had to go find Edward and let him know bellas truck was still at the airport. I saw him in the living room.

"Hey"...he looked up and wiped his face,he was in here crying.

"Sorry man I didn't mean to bother you,I'm leaving to go back to Texas now,I need to give you the keys to Bella's truck that's at the airport."

"Oh no It's okay your not bothering me"

"If you come out I have the keys in the car"...Edward followed me out and I threw my stuff in the car and grabbed the keys from the cup holder.

"Here you go"...he took them.

"Could I go with you to the airport and get the truck?"...I looked at him,he looked sad and a bit lost.

"Yeah of course C'mon"...Edward got in and we were on our way.

"I'll send Dad a text to let him know where I went"

"Yeah right,you don't want them to worry"

What I thought was going to be a very silent ride to the airport became a nice ride with my brother,with may stories of when we were younger,the troubles we would get in and the crazy things we would do with Emmett. I almost wished he was here with us sharing our stories. Not once did we discuss Bella or who loved her or who she loved. When we got to the airport we had to go our separate ways. I grabbed my stuff,said goodbye to Edward and shook his hand. He pulled my arm and grabbed me.

"I'm gonna miss you Brother,take care of yourself"

"I'll miss you too. Take care of our Bella"

"I will"...we let go and I walked away. I'll miss my family but know soon enough I can come back and see them all.
