A/N Yeah, I know everyone is wanting to know what happened to Bella. First though I need to thank my beta twilightaddict71484 for her awesome skills, and my pre-readers Jasper'sAngel, and sinfulroad69. I love ya girls. Here, we're going to find out more about Bella's gift, and we'll even see how she reacts to something concerning her mate. Hope you enjoy this chapter as much as I enjoyed writing it.

I do not own Twilight or any of the characters.

Jasper's POV

It only took a few seconds for us to get into the house. Since it came from the living room that's where we headed. Everyone was in there, and I noticed several things at once. Isabella was on the floor, passed out, Renee was at her daughter's side, and she was pissed. The TV looked as if someone had taken a bat to it, there was broken glass everywhere.

As soon as I was in the room Renee yelled for me to get my ass over to her. I knelt down and saw that Isabella was still out, and Renee asked if I could pick her up and put her on the couch. There was broken glass all around her, and none of us wanted THAT kind of accident to happen right now.

I asked Renee what happened and she glared at Emmett. Now, I knew I wasn't going to like the answer. She finally just said that her daughter should probably tell what happened since it was her that it happened to. She herself wasn't in the room either.

I looked at Emmett and gave him the "what the fuck" look letting him know that he had better start talking since I knew it was something he had done.

"Man, how in the fuck was I supposed to know that she would react that way? She was in here looking at the TV like she had never seen anything like it before. I thought she was looking for the fucking remote, so I turned it on. Next thing I know she's screaming and then passing out."

I knew it was his fucking fault. I was interrupted with Esme telling Emmett to watch his language. He of course argued that everyone else got to say those kind of words, and Esme's answer for that was they were guests. I was starting to get really pissed off, "Emmett, focus, what was on the TV when you turned it on?"

"It was some freaky movie about werewolves. When I turned it on one jumped out and went after a human. But, she didn't get that far. The werewolf jumped out, she screamed, the TV suddenly exploded, and she passed out."

Part of me wanted to laugh, it was kind of funny. But I also realized that to someone who's never seen or heard about TV that she could have seen it as being very real. I knew the family needed to know, "Well, Em, it wasn't really your fault, you didn't know, yet it is your fault for assuming again. She wasn't looking for the remote, she was probably trying to figure out what the fuck it was!"

Renee spoke up then and told the family about Isabella being isolated all of her life. They were shocked, and then they all felt bad for what she had just gone through. Not knowing it was only a picture, they themselves would have reacted the same way. Especially, when its a giant flat screen.

"Jasper you need to be next to her when she comes to. She's going to be terrified when she does. As far as she knows that monster is very real to her." Renee told me.

Sure enough, a couple of minutes later she came to and she started screaming. I sent her some calm, and then when she was calm enough her mom explained about the TV, what it was, and the fact that it was basically only a picture. She was embarrassed that she reacted that way. Emmett told her he was sorry that he didn't know that she had never seen a TV, he was just trying to help her.

I had an idea of how the TV had exploded but I didn't want to say anything in front of Demetri who was still there. Of course the asshole just fucking had to ask how the TV got damaged. I looked at Em who could see my face but Demetri couldn't. I just mouthed, "Don't tell him."

Emmett told him that she threw something at the werewolf, and of course it broke the TV. Carlisle then told everyone to leave and let her calm down. Besides, she needed a few minutes with her mom as they were about to leave. I told Isabella that all of us would be outside working on our project, and if she needed anything to just ask.

Before stepping out I looked at Renee and knew what she was asking. I nodded to her quickly to let her know that I had done as she had asked and everything was set up according to her plans.

We had talked, and while she told me to ask Isabella the reason why, she explained that under no circumstances did she want her daughter to be alone with Demetri. She thought it was best if Peter and Char pretended to leave, but stay and watch Isabella when she was with him. She didn't trust him but I already knew this, I just didn't know why. She would only tell me that her daughter knew and had been given permission to tell me when she could.

When it was my turn to be with Isabella then they would watch Demetri to make sure that he didn't follow us. I had talked to them and they already had decided to do just that. Peter, said that his "knower" was going off like crazy and all he knew was that it had something to do with Demetri. He was worried about my mate. He said that he had a feeling that Demetri was going to do something to her, to hurt her. For the first time in my existence, I hoped that he was fucking wrong.

Bella's POV

Mom had told me about what Jasper had asked Peter and Char to do. They had agreed, and it made me feel a little better about having to spend time with Demetri. I had only had a casual friendship with him, saying hi when I saw him, but never really having a conversation with him. But since mom told me about what had happened between them, plus the thing that happened about a year ago, I didn't like him and truthfully didn't want to spend any time with him.

Aro wasn't going to back down, and said that I HAD to spend time with him, and then I could make my decision after a week. I wish that I could just tell Jasper that I chose him, but I would still have to do the week. Right now though, it was time to say good-bye to mom.

I walked her outside where she met up with Felix who had been helping the family work on their project. They stopped working and all came over to say good-bye. They promised to see her again soon no matter who was chosen, they all seemed to love my mom. She of course returned the feelings. She had spent several hours talking to Carlisle.

She pulled me aside and whispered that it was alright if I wanted to tell Jasper that I was going to pick him. The only reason for not doing so, was to get payback for his actions against me. I told her that I would play it by ear, but I was beginning to worry more about being alone with Demetri even though I knew I wouldn't really be alone. The thought of even being with him, scared me.

I heard Demetri tell Felix that if they didn't leave now the plane would be late for take off. Mom hugged me tightly, telling me she loved me, and how proud she was of me. Then she kissed my cheek, and quickly got in the car. Then, she was gone.

I hadn't realized that I was crying, until I felt cold arms wrap around me and looked up to see Peter and Char. They both held me and let me sob and ruin their clothes. Once I had cried for a few minutes, I was able to get control. I had to stay strong for mom, and my new sibling. I could miss mom and cry later. Right now, I had work to do.

I knew why Demetri was taking them to the airport. I needed to show everyone my second gift, and what I could do with it. Carlisle also wanted to speak to me, well with the whole family present of course.

As soon as they were gone everyone went into the living room. I didn't really want to do anything except go to my room and cry. Fuck, I was crying anyway. But, I had promised mom that I would take this time to show them my physical shield and what I could and could not do with it.

Carlisle started off, "Isabella, I know that you are going through a hard time right now, and part of it is our fault. So, in light of that I feel. . ."

I cut him off quickly, I needed to let them know this shit was NOT going to fly, "I'm sorry Dr. Cullen, but I must stop you right there. First of all and this is for everyone, do not call me Isabella. Every one of you that has used my name calls me that. Please, call me Bella. Aro, and the other two always call me Isabella and I fucking hate them, and I fucking hate Isabella because of them."

"We'll make you a deal, you call me Carlisle, and my wife Esme, and we'll call you Bella. How does that sound?"

I nodded and then went on, "I know we don't have much time before Demetri gets back so lets do this quickly because there is something else I need to say to everyone here. I just want everyone to know that I have been watching everyone over the last couple of days. What I have seen I admit surprises me.

Mom and I had a long talk and she helped me to really understand that the real monsters are the Volturi. While I can't trust you, and I'm still frightened that everything will go back to the way it was before mom got here, I think that I should at least give everyone a chance to show me that you are different. That doesn't mean that anyone is forgiven, it just means that I understand that all of you were just as much victims as I was. The only difference was the way I was treated.

Now here is what I would like to do. I just want to spend the next twenty-four hours thinking about everything, you know process it. But, I have discovered a problem, and it needs to be fixed before any of us can go forward, including me.

Every single one of you, and especially Jasper are practically walking on eggshells around me. This is your fucking home and you shouldn't have to do this. So, what I would like to do is maybe try to start over. It won't be forgiveness on my part, that will have to come with time, and trust. Its going to be very hard for me to trust any of you, but I'm at least willing to work with trying. Now, the only requirement I am asking for is please feel free to approach me at any time, and stop fucking treating me like I'm about to break if you do something. If you guys can live with that then I'll try, so what do you say?"

They all were practically yelling their yeah's, so I started.

"Hello, my name is Isabella Swan, but please call me Bella."

Carlisle came up and held out his hand and introduced himself, I took his hand and then hugged him. Esme was next, and I hugged her. Everyone came up including Peter and Char, except for Jasper. When I looked over at him, I could see the pain, and sadness on his face. He wouldn't even look at me, he kept his head down.

I decided that I needed to be the one to make the first move. I went over to him and he still wouldn't look at me. I finally asked him to please look at me.

"Jasper, don't you want to try and start over? I guess that's probably a stupid question, how could you even want me around? After all, I'm mostly human, so I'm too simple, and plain."

I heard him growl and he was now looking at me, "Please do NOT ever put yourself down. It's me that is not worthy to be around you. Yes, I do want to start over, but the memories of what I did to you, will haunt me for the rest of my life."

"Then how about we try to make new ones? Good ones, funny ones, interesting ones, but no sad ones alright?"

He had turned his head but when I was finished talking he looked straight at me. I walked up to him and put my arms around him and gave him a quick hug. I felt him stiffen, for a few seconds until he relaxed and put his arms around me and hugged me back. This felt right.

We both pulled away and now it was time to show them what my other shield could do. I told them we needed to go outside and somewhere that it wouldn't be a problem for some damage to trees or rocks. Emmett laughed and said that there was no fucking way I could do any damage to trees or rocks. Makes me think he should be the one to demonstrate my gift on.

Esme glared at him and yelled at him for cussing. He again said that I could get away with it why not him. Apparently, I'm special. She just told him that I would eventually learn not to do so in front of everyone. I guess for her I could try.

We went to a field that did have trees and some huge boulders surrounding it. I went to stand in the middle and asked the others to stand to the side. Then I told Emmett to charge me. At first he wouldn't do it, but eventually he did and of course he bounced right off. Then I had everyone try, and same thing happened. They all expected this.

Then I told Emmett to come at the different family members not telling me who he would charge at. Of course he bounced off no matter who he lunged at. Then, I had him come at me again. This time instead of bouncing off, he was thrown about a hundred feet, and into a tree which was knocked down from the force of his landing.

He tried a few more times before asking why I needed to be protected. No one could get near me if I didn't want them to, and I could protect everyone else from a distance. Now, I had to show them the weakness. I decided to use Jasper for this one.

"I know that you are all excited about seeing how strong my physical shield is. But, there is a weakness. If you know about the weakness, then it should help when the time comes whenever that is. Jasper, would you mind coming and helping me with this?"

I could tell he really didn't want to do it so I decided to help him, "It won't hurt me or you I promise."

He came over and I told him to grab my arm and just hold it. It was like pulling fucking teeth. I finally took his hand and just held it in both of mine. Then I told Emmett, and Peter to charge at Jasper. Of course they bounced off. Then I told them to switch and same thing, then I explained that I couldn't throw someone away from me if they were touching me. My shield would automatically go around them, instead of throwing them off of me. Now, it time for the real show to begin.

I told them that there was one other thing that I needed to show them but I knew it would have to be a watered down version so to speak. I had Emmett find the biggest boulder so that I could use it to show them. I had asked Carlisle to bring me some blood.

He had brought four thermos filled with warmed blood. I wanted everyone to see the difference between not having blood, and shortly after drinking it. Everyone stood to the side of the boulder but not too close.

I pushed my shield out quickly and the boulder shuddered. Then I drank a thermos of the blood. After waiting a minute I again pushed my shield out but this time threw it about fifty feet. Another thermos of blood, and I threw it out again just as swiftly as before and the boulder was thrown farther than Emmett had been thrown the first time.

Then, I drank the third thermos and this time when I threw my shield out it was just as quick, but the force behind it caused the boulder to explode. It was so strong that most of the boulder was now powder. When I turned to look at everyone, they were standing there with shocked expressions on their faces.

I knew what they were thinking so I decided to just let them know, "If that had been a vampire, that is what would have been left of him or her. Just so you know, I have killed a vampire that way. That's how I found out about what I could do. A male was trying to rape my mom, and I had just had blood. I was trying to either push him away from her, or encase him so he couldn't touch her. Instead, he exploded."

I told them that was all that I knew of. I could tell that Jasper was upset. Part of me didn't fucking care what his problem was, but another part wanted to help him, So I asked him what was wrong.

"That's why your mom told us that we weren't allowed to touch you when we were with you, isn't it? She didn't trust either of us, and knew that if we touched you, you wouldn't be able to push us away."

Alright, should I let him think that, or should I be honest? I decided that enough lies had been told, "No, Jasper. My mom actually trusts you, a fucking lot more than I do. She said that to try to keep Demetri from touching me. She knows what he's like, and she needed me to be able to push him away if necessary. The thing is, if I have to use it against him, then he can run and tell Aro. That's why she wants Peter and Char close by. I promise Jasper, it has nothing to do with you."

He accepted the explanation, I think mostly because my shield was down and he could feel my emotions.

After this Carlisle said we needed to get back that Demetri would be on his way. They wanted to be working on the project when he got there. I was picked up by Emmett and they ran us back to the house.

Once there they started working on the project. All of them, even the girls. Peter and Char were waiting until Demetri got back to leave, that way he would see them leaving.

I wanted to see if I could figure out what they were building, so I sat on the porch just watching. They were more carefree than they had been yesterday, and I'm guessing it was the conversation we had earlier. They laughed, and joked, with an occasional hug and kiss between the mated ones.

I know they could have been doing it just for show but I didn't think so. This is where the lack of trust kicks in, and while I truly wanted to believe that it was real, a part of me still questioned it.

Demetri showed up a short time later. He was headed towards me but Carlisle reminded him that he couldn't approach me, it was my time, to myself. Carlisle then came over and told me that Jasper would be picking me up from my room tomorrow at three. It was up to him to tell me the time and what to expect.

We would be leaving the house, and I needed to dress casually. Then he told me something that made me so excited, he told me that Jasper was taking me to go shopping. The more I thought about it, the more excited I got.

It was then I noticed Alice and Jasper were arguing. Carlisle noticed as well and explained that Alice was upset because she wanted to take me shopping, apparently Jasper had no clue about fashion and would allow me to get whatever I wanted. Jasper on the other hand was saying that its his fault I needed new clothes, therefore, I should be allowed to buy whatever I liked.

It was funny watching them, and they had moved closer so I could hear what they were saying. Alice was going on and on about the fact that Jasper had no sense of fashion, whatever the fuck that was. For some reason watching them made me feel jealous. She was touching his arm trying to get him to change his mind. Then she tried to get him to let her come along, just to make sure that I didn't pick out something horrible.

I knew she was married to Edward, but she was touching him, and for some fucked up reason, this bothered me. I was starting to feel angry, no, it was deeper than that. Then, she did something that fucking pissed me off even more.

She had moved in front of him and placed her hands on his biceps. Then she moved one hand to his chest, and that was fucking it. All I could see was fucking red, so I let loose of my shield. I have no fucking clue what happened after that.

When I came back to my senses, Jasper, and Carlisle, were in front of me trying to calm me down. I felt my shield up, and looked to where the others were surrounded. Apparently, I had shoved Alice into a tree and my shield was holding her there. Oh, shit! What in the fuck did I just do? I couldn't even comprehend why I had done it.

I quickly pulled my shield back in. The last thing I remembered was Alice putting her hands on Jasper. Oh fuck no! There's no fucking way I would have done anything for that fucking reason, I'm possessive of Jasper? I was mortified, and I wasn't sure if it was for my actions, or if it was for the reason of my actions. I looked up at Jasper who had a huge grin on his face, idiot. That only made it worse, so, I did the only cowardly thing I could do; I ran.

I ran up to my room. I didn't like feeling what I was, especially for him. I guess mom was right and I'm starting to feel more possessive. I wanted to break her fucking hand; and instead, I pushed her away from him. I didn't want to feel anything for him, yet I felt like I was on a runaway train that would crash at any moment, right into Jasper. I should hate him. I was beginning to hate my fucked up life.
