Chapter 22

The alarm clock on Bella's night stand went off at seven o'clock in the morning, startling Jasper. He hadn't been asleep, but he was in a very peaceful state of mind when the alarm had sounded right by his head. Still blindfolded he moved quickly smacking the clock off the table and waking up Bella in the process.

"You're still here!" Bella stretched and pulled the blanket over her still naked body. Not that she would have minded if Jasper had seen her, but she had just remembered that she had left the door ajar last night. She hadn't planned on falling asleep, but lying in Jaspers arms and inhaling his manly musky scent had relaxed her so much she had just conked out.

"I was feeling great until that horrible thing started buzzing. How can you stand that?" Jasper asked.

"That's how I wake up on school days. I have to be in class soon." Bella leaned into Jasper pushing her breasts up against his bare skin.

"I think you should skip classes today Miss Bella." Jasper said as he ran his nose down her neck until his head was between her breasts. "I can feel how much you want to."

Bella was getting really aroused by Jasper, and she really didn't want to go to class, but she had a big exam. Jasper started kissing and licking her chest and she forgot all about school. "Ummm, that feels so good." She groaned.

Jasper had known that Bella was going to go to classes. He had other plans for today, important plans. "Can I borrow your truck today?" Jasper asked.

"Huh?" Bella snapped out of her lust induced haze and realized Jasper was saying something. "What?"

"I would like to borrow your truck while you go to school today. I have something big planned for us tonight." Jasper smiled.

"Oh, sure. What do you have planned?" Bella asked

"I want it to be a surprise, my place. I'll pick you up at six this evening." Jasper kissed Bella softly and ran his hand down her hip.

Bella wasn't sure what Jasper had planned, but she could feel his excitement. "Alright, do you want to try taking off the blindfold now?"

Jasper knew he had been inside all night, he knew it was safe, but he was still worried about how he would react to being inside. He didn't want to ruin things by running like a coward. "Just walk me to the door Honey. The first time I see your body, it's going to be special. Tonight Bella. Tonight is going to be a wonderful night. It's all I thought about while you slept."

Bella led Jasper to the door and she handed him the keys to the truck. Jasper removed the blindfold and he saw Bella standing beside him wrapped in a white blanket. Her hair was disheveled and she was blushing. She looked just like an angel to Jasper as she handed him his shirt. "I love you so much." He said as he put his shirt on and kissed her good bye.

Jasper couldn't stop smiling as he drove back to his place. He had so much work to do before he had to be back to pick Bella up. As Bella had slept last night Jasper had made an important decision. He was going to have a serious conversation with Bella tonight. He would ask her to be with him forever. Things had been moving in that direction, but they hadn't actually discussed if or when Bella would want to be a vampire. Now that Jasper was so close to being able to handle her as a newborn he wanted to ask her, and he wanted to do it right. If she said yes he was going to make love to her. He wouldn't wait any longer.

He wanted to make it perfect for her, romantic. He was going to rip the roof off of his old house, and fill it with candles and roses. He was also going to need a bed. He would make love to her under the stars.

After Jasper spent an hour ripping off the roof from the old house and cleaning up the mess, he grabbed his hat and drove into town. Jasper had made a list of all the things he wanted to buy. Now he would just have to find someone to buy it for him.

He spotted an older man standing on a corner. He was holding a cardboard sign that stated, Will work for food. Jasper decided that this man might be a good choice. As Jasper rolled down the window the man eagerly approached, looking for a handout. "I was wondering if you'd like to earn some money today." Jasper said. "I will pay you well."

The man looked closely at Jasper; he noticed the scars. "I don't do none of that freaky shit son." The man said as he backed away from the truck afraid.

Jasper laughed and sent out a calming energy. "I just need you to go shopping for me. Help me get everything on my list and I'll pay you five hundred dollars."

The man paused and reconsidered, "Alright but I want a hundred upfront."

"No problem, get in." Jasper noticed that the man smelled pretty sour as he climbed in the truck, but he felt that this man would get the job done. "Would you look over my list and then suggest which store we should go to?" Jasper asked.

The man read the list and said, "I can get all of this stuff at Walmart, except the mattress; unless you want a futon mattress."

Jasper didn't know what a futon mattress was and he didn't want to ask, so he just told the man that the futon mattress would be fine. "You're not going to run off with my money are you?" Jasper asked and sent a slight wave of fear towards the man.

"No, I wouldn't do that." The man said as he took the money and the list. "I really need the money but I'm not a thief." The man then left Jasper in the truck with his promise to return with all of the things Jasper needed.

As Jasper waited in the truck for the man to return he thought of Bella, and decided to send her a text.

Can't wait to see you tonight Beautiful.

After waiting for what felt like a very long time, the man returned with a cart full of bags, and a sales associate who was hauling a large box that contained the mattress. Jasper pretended he was busy on the phone and let the men put everything in the back of the truck. He didn't want to get caught shining in the sun.

After everything was loaded into the truck Jasper paid the man, and he happily went on his way.

Once Jasper got back to his place and unloaded everything he checked his phone for messages. Usually Bella would have responded to him by now. He still needed to set everything up inside the house and hunt before he drove back to pick her up. He decided to hunt first.

As Jasper went farther into the forest he picked up an alarming scent.

Vampire!
