X.X.X.X.X.X.
AJ sat in the library at the school the next day, trying to find something that would help with her essay with Emmett.
She had just finished talking to Bella who seemed positive that the Cullens weren't human. She kept talking about how no one can look that good, not even Channing Tatum. AJ knew she was right, but she couldn't tell her that.
She found a book titled "The Close Extinction of African Elephants" on the highest shelf. Due to her shortness, she couldn't seem to reach the book.
She sighed in defeat just as a hand grabbed the book for her. She looked over her shoulder to see Jasper Hale with a crooked smile on his face. She felt her knees weaken just at the sight of him.
"Thanks Jasper." AJ said as he handed over the book.
"Your welcome, ma'am." He drawled, his southern accent standing out.
AJ blushed and looked down. He smelled like pine and cologne. It calmed her slightly and made her forget about what happened the previous night. But then, two cold fingers lifted up her chin, forcing her to look at him. He knitted his eyebrows in confusion before saying, "Have you been crying?"
AJ's eyes widened as she pulled away from his grasp, immediately missing the contact. "N-no." She cursed herself for stuttering.
"Don't lie to me, AJ," The way he said her fake name brought butterflies to her stomach. It made her wonder what it would be like for him to say her real name. "Have you been crying?"
AJ bit her lip nervously. Before she answered, she looked up to met Jasper's golden eyes but saw they were black, filled with lust. But all of a sudden, his eyes were gone and she was staring at a wall.
"Please, stop doing that darlin', you're distracting me. I don't want to hurt you." He groaned, squeezing his eyes shut while leaning up against the bookshelf across from her.
AJ gulped and instantly stopped biting her lip. Instead, she began to nervously play with the hem of her shirt. "S-sorry."
Jasper took in a gulp of air as he opened his eye. They were back to normal beside they were now a dark shade of yellow. "Don't apologize. Not your fault."
AJ's heart was going a mile a minute as he stepped closer to her. She never knew having a mate would make her a stuttering mess.
"How do you like Forks so far?" He asked her, studying her face.
"Oh, um, it's really cold and wet here. It's not like I hate the cold, I just like the sun better. My favorite season is summer, but my second favorite is winter." She babbled. "I just like nature and animals all together-" She stopped when she realised she was rambling. Blushing, she began to tug at the end of her shirt again. "I tend to ramble a lot."
Jasper smirked. "You seem to do that when you are talking about a subject you truly love."
"I suppose." She sighed. She stared into his eyes which were now filled with admiration. Her uneasy figure was hit with a wave of calmness as he stared at her. She smiled at him, pretending to not know he was the one that did that to her.
"You ever gonna talk about me like that?" Jasper asked, sounding very serious.
"Uh-um. I-um. I don't..." She gaped at him.
Jasper smiled a crooked smile. "I'm messing with you, AJ." He could hear her heart beating loudly in her chest.
She let out a relieved smile. "What about you? What's your favorite season?"
Jasper thought about this. "Probably autumn."
"Why?"
"I like the color of the leaves."
AJ stifled a giggle, covering her lips with a hand.
Jasper raised an eyebrow at her. "You think that's funny, eh? My turn to ask you a question. Are you ticklish?"
Her reaction of horror gave him all the information he need as he began to advance.
Unfortunately, he backed AJ into a dead end. AJ looked very serious as she began to threaten him.
"Jasper Hale! Don't you dare think about it! I-I... I will never talk to you again if you try to tickle me!" She threatened.
Jasper knew she was bluffing and continued forward until he trapped her against the wall. He quickly began to tickle her as she tried to defend herself. She began to grow weak and stopped trying to escape.
Her laughter was music to his ears but he stopped tickling her so she could breathe.
Wiping away a stray tear, AJ caught her breath. She looked down for a second as she realised how close they were. His hands were on either side of her head, trapping her. Her chest was pressed up against his own, and she could feel his muscles move under his shirt. The only thing that was keeping their hips from touching was the book Jasper helped her reach. She was holding it in her hands infront of her when she began to get harassed with tickles.
Her breath got hitched in her throat as Jasper leaned closer to her. She could feel his minty, cold breath hitting her face.
"I don't want to hurt you." He whispered, his voice husky as he began to pull away.
"Hey! What are you two kids doing?" A woman's voice yelled.
Jasper jumped away from her quicker than before as she stumbled forward. Apparently he was holding her up with himself.
AJ saw that it was the librarian that was at the front desk. She must've heard AJ's laughter from being tickled.
AJ looked around and noticed Jasper was gone.
Running a hand through her wavy hair, AJ walked forward. "I was just wondering if I could check out this book?"
The old librarian gave her a look, noticing that AJ looked flustered. "Sure," she said dragging the word out. "I was positive that I saw two of you in here. Follow me."
X.X.X.X.X.X.
Due to the crazy and totally random rain storm they had last night, the roads were a bit icy and wet.
AJ was walking with Bella to her truck, trying not to slip on ice as she did so.
"What's with the golden onion?" AJ asked Bella.
Bella blushed. "Me and Edward won it in biology." (Is the class biology?)
"Aww," AJ cooed. "I can hear church bells ringing and I can see little Edward's and shy Bella's running around with food stains on their shirts."
Bella smacked AJ's shoulder softly as they git to Bella's truck. AJ noticed chains wrapped around the tires of the truck. "Did your dad do this for you?"
Bella nodded.
"That's sweet of him, he must really care." AJ said, thinking of her own father.
Bella nodded, lost in her own thoughts. "He does."
Bella began to stare off at Edward who was across the parking lot. AJ noticed Jasper was staring at her as she turned around to look at what Bella was staring at. In fact, all of the Cullens/Hales were looking at the two girls. Rosalie looked at the two of them with hatred while Emmett, Darren, and Alice sort of smiled at them.
The two girls were too distracted by the family of vampires to hear the screeching of tires coming at them.
"Bella! AJ!" They heard Angela shout which snapped them out of their gaze.
They both quickly turned to see Tyler's black van swiveling on the ice while coming straight at them.
AJ knew she was (somewhat) immortal so she could survive a collision with a car. So, she pushed Bella put of the way, closing her eyes.
Waiting for the impact, AJ felt two arms embrace her, causing her to fall into their chest while hitting her head harshly against one of the tires. She felt warm liquid pool down her forehead after her head came in contact with the chains on the tire. The person stopped the van from hitting her.
AJ opened her eyes to see Jasper hovering over her with Edward beside him. Edward was by Bella, making sure she was okay.
Jasper stared at her with dark eyes before jumping over the truck with Edward and running away again.
"AJ! Are you okay?" She heard Bella ask as they got up.
"Yeah. You?"
People began to run over to the two of them. "AJ? BELLA? ARE YOU GUYS OKAY?"
"Someone call 911!" They heard someone shout.
Tyler looked out the window, he too had blood coming down his face. "Bella, AJ, I'm so sorry, I-I-I panicked."
"AJ!" Jessica shouted, grabbing the girls attention. "You're bleeding!"
"Bella, AJ, I got 911 on the phone." A girl said.
Rosalie and Alice quickly shut their umbrellas as they shoved the boys in the car, racing off to who knows where.
X.X.X.X.X.X.
Bella, AJ, and Tyler were taken to the hospital to be checked for injuries. Tyler and AJ had bloodied bandages wrapped around their head while Bella sat on a bed uncomfortably.
A man came bursting through the doors wearing a police uniform. This man had to be Bella's dad, Chief Charlie Swan.
"Bella," He breathed out in relief as he walked towards his daughter. "You okay? You and I are going to talk." He pointed at Tyler.
"You alright?" He asked Bella again.
"I'm fine, dad. Calm down." Bella said while getting her pressure taken.
"I'm sorry Bella, you too AJ. I tired to stop." Tyler stated.
"We know. It's okay." AJ said, giving the stressed out teenage boy a reassuring smile.
Chief Swan shook his head. "No, it's not okay. It sure as hell is not okay."
Bella shook her head, trying to defend Tyler. "Dad, it wasn't his fault."
"Both of you could've been killed." Chief Swan looked at AJ who had the bandages on her head.
"You understand that?" He asked, looking back at Bella.
"Yes," Bella began. "But we weren't so..."
"You can kiss your license goodbye." Chief Swan said as the door to the emergency room opened.
In came another vampire who AJ could only guess as Dr. Carlisle Cullen. Like the others he was very handsome.
"I heard the chief's daughter was here?" He gave them a charming smile.
"Ah, Dr. Cullen," Chief Swan greeted.
"Charlie," He said back, giving him a nod. "I got this one, Jackie."
He grabbed a clipboard from the nurse and looked through it. "Isabella."
"Bella." Bella corrected.
"Well, Bella, your heart beat is normal and your vitals are good." Dr. Cullen said.
"AJ pushed me out of the way." Bella stated.
Dr. Cullen looked over at the bed next to her and saw AJ. He could smell her. She smelled very good just like his kids said.
He held back the slight thirst for her blood and gave her a smile.
"How brave of you miss...?"
"Ryan. But call me AJ." AJ gave him a cheerful smile.
"Nice to meet you AJ."
"You too, Dr. Cullen."
Dr. Cullen turned to look back to Bella and he began to talk to Chief Swan.
AJ spaced out until she saw Dr. Cullen infront of her.
"How is your head, AJ?" He asked softly putting pressure around the long cut.
"I'm fine. Don't feel anything." AJ said.
"You don't seem to have a concussion. I'm going to take off the bandages to make sure you haven't shone any signs of infection yet." Dr. Cullen took off the bandages and moved her head to the side to have a better look.
"Doesn't look irritated or red. In fact, the cut isn't even as long as it was reported. It seems it's gotten shorter by a centimeter. It's even started to scab over." Dr. Cullen said in amazement.
"Oh, umm, us Ryans heal quickly." AJ quickly made up.
"Well my daughter talks about you a lot. She seems to like you." Dr. Cullen said.
"I'm guessing it's Alice right? Rosalie doesn't seem to like me very much..." AJ sighed.
"Rosalie is very... very protective." Dr. Cullen said, thinking that was the best word for it.
"I know exactly how she feels..." AJ whispered, mostly to herself but Dr. Cullen heard her.
He raised and eyebrow and was about to ask but before he could, the emergency room doors opened up again. Her aunt came running in and her fiery red hair flew behind her like flames.
"Mar-AJ! AJ are you okay?" Aspen asked, being careful not to say her real name.
"Yes Aunt Aspen."
"Good." Aspen knew her niece would be okay either way, but she was still worried.
Aunt Aspen seemed to remember Dr. Cullen was in the room. "Hello Dr. Cullen. How is Esme?"
Dr. Cullen gave her a smile. "She's fine, thanks for asking. How is Will?"
"Will is great."
"Good. Now AJ doesn't seem to have a concussion so that's good and her cut isn't infected. She won't need stitches but she might want to keep a band-aid on the cut even though it has already scabbed over. You don't want to tear the scab of and cause it to bleed." Dr. Cullen instructed.
Aunt Aspen nodded her head. "Okay. Anything else?"
Dr. Cullen shook his head. "All you have to do is sign her out. But if the skin around the cut begins to look red and irritated, bring her back in."
"Okay, thanks Dr. Cullen." Aspen thanked.
"Of course." Dr. Cullen said.
