Chapter 13
Alice wondered how well she could communicate with the darker blonde haired, southern boy, Jasper. His voice made her stomach tremble, something she never experienced before. Well, not like this. This was different, stronger and harder to push aside.
He was watching her when she looked at him. She smiled as he raised an eyebrow at hom. She hoped it was a silent question that maybe he'd understand. She didn't want to embarrass her friend, after all. That was why they were here, right?
In an effort at silent communication, something Alice wasn't good at, she shifted her eyes between Bella and Edward a couple of times, smiling and then back at Jasper with her own raised eyebrow. Would he understand her question? Did he get what she was asking? If he did, he'd be the first to really understand her.
Jasper blinked. Was she asking him a question? If he was right, he understood her question. He considered Edward and Bella a few times, then beheld Alice who was watching him intently with an almost hopeful gaze. He grinned, hoping to convey his answer, to what he prayed was a question. His friend, Edward, and the girl sitting across from them might have a chance, if they were left alone, maybe.
As Alice clasped her hands together, her smile widened and Jasper laughed. Edward and Bella where oblivious to them.
Jasper nodded his head to the side, wondering if he could actually ask her if she wanted to slip away.
Alice considered her friends one at a time. They were lost, alone, together in the crowd. She shifted her focus back to Jasper. She stood slowly, acting as if she was just stretching in case Bella noticed. Jasper followed her movements. Bella nor Edward noticed. They both grinned wider and stepped away, disappearing into the darkness.
