Chapter 4

Jasper POV

When I woke up this morning, I did not know it would be a great day!

Fist when I got to school Bella started asking me questions about my resent mood swings and I was really freaking out on the inside, thinking that she had found out that I like her. But I played it cool and it seemed like she didn't know what's going on.

The only bad thing about this day is that Bella was mad at me over that little conversation we had. So at lunch we did not talk to each other and Rose looked back and forth between us.

Before she could say anything Edward came over to our table with a girl and guy in tow. When Eddie, as she called him, introduced them to us, I realized that Alice, the new girl, was flirting with him and he was letting her!

How could he let some other girl flirt with him when he had the nicest and hottest girl in this school as his girlfriend already?

As they sat down I looked at Bella to see her looking at me with her "what the hell" look and I had to smile at that. Maybe I did have a chance with her after all.

She doesn't seem that upset that this new girl is flirting with her boyfriend.

I turned to look at Rose on my right and I saw her laughing and talking with Alice's older brother, Emmett. She is too preoccupied to notice what is going on.

That is so unlike her. I guess she is really starting to like this guy.

"Well it is nice to meet you guys. My name is Rose, this is my brother Jasper and this is my best friend Bella." Rose said as she waved her arm to each of us in turn.

"It is really good to meet you too." Emmett said as he looked at Rose with a big goofy smile on his face. Rose had that effect on guys.

"So where are you guys from?" Rose asked Alice and Emmett, but she was only looking at Emmett.

"We just came from Alaska. We only lived there for two years. We move around a lot because of our dad's job. He is a free lance photographer, he likes to move to different places to get interesting shots." Emmett told us, but he was still only looking at Rose.

"Yeah. He is the coolest dad ever. He lets me have money for shopping whenever I want!" said Alice in her high squeaky voice.

I don't know why Eddie boy, that's my new nick name for him, would pick her over the beautiful Bella. I am not jumping to any conclusions by saying that he is going to get with Alice, but one can hope right?

Who am I kidding, Bella does not deserve to be dumped by Eddie boy for some girl he just met when they have been friends forever. No matter how much I want them to break up. They should do it naturally, if it is coming then it will come, but if not I guess I will have to stick to day dreaming about her as my girlfriend.

Just then the bell ran to signal that lunch was over. We all got up and headed our separate ways to our separate classes. Yeah, I don't have any classes with my Bella, not like Eddie does. That lucky bastard.

For the next few hours I sat in class day dreaming about Bella leaving Eddie boy for manlier guy, like me.

Then finally it was time to go home.

As I was walking towards mine and Rose's car I saw Bella storming her way over towards me. As she got near me, she started talking without me even asking what she was coming over to talk to me for.

"Can you believe that girl? What right does she have to call Edward, Eddie? She hasn't even known him that long and she thinks that she can make up a weird nick name for him?" Bella was yelling as she finally reached me.

Oh, she was talking about Alice. I guess the afternoon did not go so good for Bella. I know this will make me sound mean if I tell anyone, but I am kind of glad.

Bella started to pace in front of me as she yelled about Alice and Edward. "And why is Edward not doing anything about her. I mean he just sits there and smiles at her like I am not five feet away from him. What do you think I should do Jasper? Should I just let it go or should I confront him and say that it is either me or her?" Bella stops pacing and turns towards me after her tirade.

Wow. She is asking me for advice? Maybe I am not the best person for her to ask advice from.

I want so badly for her to say to him, "choose", but that might not be the best way for her to deal with what is going on. Where is Rose when you need her!

"I think that you should just let it go for now and wait and see if Edward stops letting Alice flirting with him and if he does then he really wants to be with you, but if he doesn't then you should confront him about where your relationship stands." I told her, as much as it pains me to, I am her friend first.

"Thanks Jasper. You always know what to say" Bella told me then she leaned in and kissed me lightly on the cheek and turned away towards her car to go home.

I stood there stunned by what she did, until Rose came up to me.

"What are you staring at." she said as she looked between me and where I was staring off to. That got me out of my day dreaming.

"Where were you? It has been ten minutes. What could have taken you so long?" I yelled at Rose trying to draw her attention away from my day dream.

"For your information I was talking to Emmett! He is a really nice guy. I will probably have him crawling on his hands and knees to ask me out in a few days, before anyone else does." Rose said with big smile on her face.

"Isn't that kind of mean" I asked her

"Oh, please! I'm just going to make him work for it to see if he really wants me. I am not going to make him do anything bad, as I said before he is a nice guy." Rose informed me.

Then she started to get into the driver's seat of our car, so I took that as her saying that that was enough chit chat and we should be on our way home by now.

I just hoped that everything worked out with Bella and Eddie boy. But in my favour, even though I probably shouldn't want that.
