RECAP

"Your little Jazzy." He said grabbing my wrist, and squeezing really tight. "You are not for him." He said. Then he gave my wrist another squeeze and pushed me back, I didn't stop, I kept running. I knew one thing for sure, this guy was dangerous, and he was threatening me.

But what was his tiff with Jasper? Either way I wasn't going to test him to find out.

BPOV

"Good morning Bella!" I heard Jasper call from just behind me in the hallway, fighting back tears I ducked my head and continued walking.

I'm sorry. I thought

"Bella! Wait up!" he yelled cutting through all the people in front of him until he was directly behind me. Quickly I yanked the sleeved of my shirt down over my hand so that it would cover up the bruise that was left on my arm from Edward Cullen's grasp, that's the boy I sit next to in biology, I figured that out. I also figured out that that same Edward was Jaspers adopted brother. Oh, what luck I have.

"Bella, what's wrong?" he asked placing his hand on my back sending tingles up and down my spine. No, no no. I couldn't be around him, not if I didn't want any trouble from Edward.

"Nothing." I managed to choke, even though it was a lie, wow, my first and hopefully last lie to Jasper Culled.

"Quit lying to me Bella." He snapped.

"I'm not." I said my voice cracking, and I ran off to my next class, I didn't look back but I'm sure he was just left standing there confused.

I found myself in lunch before I knew it, talking to Lauren, Jessica, Angela, Mike and Ben. That was until he walked up to my table.

"Bella, can I talk to you?" Jasper asked. I looked at him unsure for a moment, I knew if I did, if I talked to him right this moment that Edward would know.

"Um…we can talk…in music class." I said, and he nodded shortly heading back to his table.

"Why was Jasper talking to her?" I heard Jessica ask Lauren, who shrugged.

I heard Mike mutter something like, "Stupid Cullen." I found that ironic because the Cullen's seemed to be really smart.

I was dreading music, but again I wasn't because Jasper would be there, a time when Edward wouldn't know we talked, a time where I can be my old self again, and not be afraid.

Finally the time for music rolled around and I stalked off to the music room and was greeted by Chase and Conner's smiling faces. Chase did a little bow, something about a knight, and Conner laughed. I didn't get to laugh very much because I was pulled off in the other direction by Jasper, I guess he was making me talk.

"What's going on with you Bella?" Jasper asked running a hand through his blonde hair.

"It's nothing really Jasper…it's my problem…don't worry about it." I said patting him on the shoulder. Bad idea. In one instant he got an eyeful of the bruise on my arm and his eyes turned dark and livid.

"Where did that come from?" he asked.

"I fell." I said, trying to lie.

"Bella, stop lying, you suck at it, now tell me." He demanded. I wonder if the class was concerned about where we were, I mean we were in the instrument closet for heavens sake.

"It happened last night." I sighed.

"When…" He egged me on.

"I was at a meadow, and…you're not going to believe this…Edward showed up." I said, instantly recognition spread across his face, followed by anger.

"And what happened?" He asked through clenched teeth.

"I don't think I should tell you." I said warily looking at him concerned. He looked like he was about to snap.

"Just tell me Bella, I'll be fine, I can handle it. I'm a big boy now." He said trying to make me laugh, and failing.

"Well, when I saw that Edward was there I got up to leave, but he said something about me leaving someone alone, so I turned back around, I'm pretty sure that person was you, because you were the focal point of the rest of our lovely discussion." I laughed bitterly.

"He told me that I wasn't for you, and that I had to stay away from you, and as if to make his point he grabbed my wrist and squeezed it. As if that was necessary," I said dryly.

I swear again I heard Jasper growl, and then he lifted my hand in front of his face as if to observe it, then he gently dropped my hand back to my side, and then ever so lightly he kissed my forehead.

"I hope you don't always believe, and do what people tell you." He breathed his eyes wary, and worried, but full of another emotion that I couldn't place in the seconds that I looked into them, and then left the room. Things were indeed just getting interesting.

Hope you liked it, not much was changed in this one, but I didn't see any need in changing it.
