AN:

I am sorry it has taken me so long to write this chapter, I have had writers block so bad on this one. I want to thank all the people who have reviewed, added me to their favorites, and Story alerted me, you guys make my day brighter. I hope that this chapter finds everyone well. Now on to the chapter.


JPOV

Feelings of love and realization flow towards me, nearly knocking me down with their intensity. She has finally figured it out, took her long enough I think. My purring increases her feelings crash over me, I let my feelings flow towards her my beautiful mate. I know later today will be hard for her. I plan on taking her to the house, the rest of the family wishes to see her. I know that Rosalie wants to talk to her about her past reaction to her. I am more than alright with that as long as Rose doesn't hurt her.

I nuzzle my mates neck, pushing calm towards her, "We need to go to the house today, you have people who would like to see you." Her body starts shaking, her fear almost bad enough to knock me to my knees if I were standing. All calm completely dissipating from her, she starts shaking her head.

"I don't want to go there right now Jasper, cant we just stay here?" she asks tentatively her fear almost overwhelming in its intensity.

"Now Darlin' I know that Rose, Emmett, Esme, Carlisle and Alice would love to see you." She calms slightly. Her feelings shift to acceptance as she realizes that I am not going to take no for an answer. She gets up and starts getting dressed, putting on a pair of skinny jeans that make her ass look even more delicious if that is at all possible and a tank top that make her luscious breasts stand out even further.

Standing up I pull my jeans and shirt on before reaching down to put my boots on. After we are completely dressed I grab her hand and gently tug her out the door. Taking her to the car I open her door for her, helping her inside. I let her know to buckle up I can't have something happening to her. I would definitely die if something did. The drive to the house was uneventful with small talk going on although her nerves were steadily getting worse. We pull up to the front of the house, I get out of the car and walk around to her side of the car. I open the door for her and she makes no move to get out of the car. I gently grab her up and run up to the door with her as it opens. Rose is standing there not looking too pleased with me.

I look up from Jasper's chest to see Rosalie standing there scowling her usual scowl at me. My nerves shoot through the roof, she didn't like me when I was dating Edward why would she like me now. I straighten my back on the outside showing no fear while on the inside it is running rampant. I start wiggling around trying to get loose, my arms flailing around. The look on Barbie princess' face is priceless a mix between disgust and mirth. I finally get out of Jasper's arms and Rose grabs my hand pulling me aside for a talk. Huh, this is odd she normally just ignores me.

"Bella, I am sorry for treating you the way I did. I want you to know I actually do like you. You just weren't with the right person. I could see the way you and Jasper looked at each other when you thought no one was looking. I know he was your best friend however that is not the look I saw. You loved him without anyone knowing including yourself. Edward was never right for you but I am happy that you have finally gotten with your true mate," She says without pausing.

I take a deep breath before replying, "I am glad to finally know why you were so upset with me Rose and I hope that you and I can be friends." I give her a big hug and her arms wrap around me after a second of shock. I have never hated this girl and I always wondered what I did to make her hate me so. She draws me into the living room. The rest of the family is sitting in there waiting on me. I can't look at my little pixie, afraid to see her angry with me for taking Jasper.

"Bella, it is alright I am not mad at you," she says quietly. She gets up, walks over to me, wraps her small arms around me, and gives me a quick kiss on the cheek. Tears flow down my face in relief. I would have hated it if I lost my best friend but Jasper is now everything to me. She tugs me over to the couch and urges me to sit down.

Looking up I see Carlisle pacing back and forth. He seems to be trying to find the words to say something. His mouth opens and closes a few times in rapid succession almost looking like a fish. I wonder what has him so bothered. I have never seen him so at a loss for words. He is usually very eloquent. He finally seems to find his footing and starts to speak.

"Bella, Edward has decided to leave the family. I know he broke up with you, and I am sorry for the way he left things. I also know he was not your mate but that doesn't excuse the way he broke up with you." He says gently turning to face me. His sincerity shows across his face. How does he know just what to say? I know I would have been more heartbroken if the rest of the family had left with him.

"I would like to speak now. I have heard what you have said Carlisle and I do not blame the rest of you for Edward," I say, raising my hand to stop Carlisle from speaking. "Now I know what you are going to say Carlisle and quite honestly I am not going to hold you responsible for his actions no matter what you say. If you need to hear it, I will say I forgive you even if there is nothing to forgive. Edward made his own bed and now he will have to lie in it."

Finishing my sentence, I get up, and walk over to him, before wrapping my arms around him. I think of this man as if he were my father and I hate that he feels the need to apologize for something he had no control over. Esme gets up, walks over to us, and wraps her arms around us, as Carlisle whispers into my hair that he always has thought of me as a daughter and that I will always be part of the family.


As always please review.
