Disclaimer: I own nothing. -.-

A/n: elloz people what's going on? Okay I know I know I said that I would not update this loving piece, until Just a Dream is done. Well I was thinking that, seeing as how I had posted it on, my Just a Dream story. I thought, hey not everybody who is reading Just a Dream is reading Emerald. So, here is my apology for my stupidity, I give you chapter three of Emerald. I hope you enjoy. (See more at bottom.)

Special thanks to my lovely new beta 41995. Give him love. XD thanks cory.

Chapter 3

Jasper's point of view

The fierce look In Emerald's eyes is what shocked me the most. Not his words. Not wanting him to think about it anymore, I smile and cup his cheek, but once again he moves my hand from his face, looking at me his eyebrow furrowed.

"Why do you keep doing that?" His question stumped me.

"Do what?" Not really sure what he was asking.

"The cheek thing you're always trying to touch me."

My eyes widen. Did he not like it? Was I too cold for him?

"Is that a bad thing?" I asked trying to understand.

"Not bad, just weird. Why would you do that? What is so good about my face?"

He looked completely confused. Has nobody ever showed him tenderness? My heart clenched at the thought of him never feeling the touch of a gentle lover.

"I do that because you're beautiful." His eyes widen at my words, he turned his head away for a moment, I watched as he took a shaky breath, running his hand through his hair trying to calm himself down. He looked at me again a small smile playing at his lips, his eyes softened, I couldn't help the chuckle that came, but once it came out I wished it hadn't. His eyebrows furrowed, the small smile gone, as his eyes harden. The look of anger resembled, the one I received at the market, confused I cocked my head.

"Emerald..." I was interrupted by his hand meeting my face, it didn't hurt, but it shocked me nevertheless.

"You beast!" He stood up, letting the blanket fall, as he bent down to grab his clothes, he seethed as he forcefully tugged on his clothes, his cheeks red, from what I could feel as embarrassment.

"Do you think it is funny to play with someone like that? Do you think that since I am a prostitute I have no feelings? That you can just spurt meaningless tender words, and they wouldn't hurt me? HAVE YOU NO HEART?" He yelled as he tightened his robe, so tight I'm surprised he could breathe let alone yell at me.

"Emerald insulting you was not my intent." I said trying to somehow redeem myself, but once the words left he scoffed.

"Well whether it was your 'intent' or not, insult taken." Running a hand through his hair he looked everywhere, but at me.

"Now you said you had no interest in sowing your wild oats, so then my presence is not needed any longer; so good night to you good sir." He said stomping out the room, leaving me in a daze. I was sure what had happened, I heard silent foots steps, looking up I saw Emmett glaring down at me.

"What did you do to him?" I threw the blanket of me, I felt his confusion roll of him, when he saw me still dressed.

"Yes Em I'm still dressed does that surprise you?" I couldn't help the sigh that come, when he nodded.

"Emerald and I didn't do anything at least not yet." He cocked his head.

"Why? I mean yeah he is a prostitute, but he does only the high class, so he isn't that tainted." I sighed once more.

"I don't know Em. He was right there naked, laying down in total submission, legs wide open and everything. Believe me I wanted to do it, but I just couldn't Em. The look on his face, well I should say lack thereof, was completely blank like he wasn't even here. I just couldn't do it." He nodded.

"A happy place." His words confused me.

"Happy place? What is, happy place?"

"I overheard Esme telling new members, about their happy places. It is supposed to be a place where their minds can go, while the gents can do their business with their bodies." I knew that my face showed my disgust, because Em just shrugged.

"Hey it is better than having to feel everything those creeps do." I couldn't say anything to refute him; I knew it was the truth. I sat back on the bed huffing to myself; as Em asked the million franc question.

"So what are you going to do now?" Nodding to myself, I glanced at Em.

"I'm going to show him I meant the words that I said." He just laughed at me, before clasping a hand on my shoulder, pity emanating off him in waves.

"Good luck with that Jasper. Emerald may be a prostitute, and had a very bad life, in which he has some issues, but he is no submissive boy. He is strong willed, stubborn, and fiercely independent. Also he does not forgive so easily, and from what I saw when I came down, he was storming to his room with the angriest expression on his face, which I have never seen before." I let out one hard laugh.

"Ha! He is not the only one that is stubborn Em. I can wait forever for him to give me another chance." Em laughed loudly.

"No lie there, my friend." I stood

"I better get going, I was planning to. . ." As I went to the door I hear Em call my name, I turned.

"Yes Em." He looked uncertain, but when he looked at me I saw nothing but seriousness in his eyes.

"Jasper I know Emerald is your mate and all, but he is also my friend. So I know what I am talking about when I say, he has been through a lot. So…" Sighing he placed a hand on my shoulder.

"Don't hurt him okay? And don't hurt yourself." I smiled, nodding I clasped my hand over his.

"I won't Em. I know what I'm doing." After my reassurance, he let go after saying out goodbyes. I left the brothel, with one thing on my mind.

Emerald.

Whoos! What do ya think? Was it a good apology? Again I'm sorry for all of you who have be waiting for a new chapter. So here is your notice now. I will be finishing this story, so you can continue with the alerts; if you want to. However, I will not update this till my Just a Dream story is finished. Reasons are I had not planned this story to be a big one, but I got some PM's that wanted it to. So I choose to make it into one. However, two major stories and my college life is a bit much right now. As much as I would like to do both, I just don't have the time. Alas one had to go and since I did Just a dream first I am going to finish that one, then hit Emerald head on. I'm sorry for those of you who like Emerald, but rest assured I WILL be finishing Emerald I will not forgot about it. I promise.

Well till next time bye now.
