Ophelia; Jasper Hale

16

Jasper squeezed my hand.

"It's ok, we can take our time," he whispered into my ear.

I blushed and buried my face into his chest.

The next day towards the afternoon Jasper got ready to go meet up with Sophie. They were going to walk in the forest and I was going to watch over them. I wanted to see how she was now. Jasper kissed my cheek and bolted off. I followed after, high up in the trees. When they met up she smiled. They mostly talked about me while hiking, she told him all of my embarrassing kid stories, and he talked about how he saw me since I moved here.  Eventually they stopped and sat at a cliff. He sat beside her and they looked out. I got a weird feeling about them meeting now.

"Enough about Ophelia. What about you?"

Oh god was she trying to flirt with him? I think he picked up on my anger because he looked in my direction and then quickly looked back.

"Nothing interesting."

"I love your accent. Where did you live before moving here?"

"Alaska."

"Where before?"

"I grew up in Georgia."

"Really? That's cool. I've never been to Alaska or Georgia."

She scooted closer to him and rested her head on his shoulder.

"Thanks for hanging out with me."

I could feel my blood burning inside of me. I was so angry. I lowly growled.

"Get out of there now Jasper Cullen."

He stiffened and quickly stood. Sophie stood up as well.

"I thi-"

Before he could say anything she jumped into him and kissed him. He tensed up and pushed her off of him strongly, but not enough to show his true strength.

"I'm sorry if I gave you the wrong impression, but I still love Ophelia."

"I'm so sorry," she turned and ran off.

Being in the middle of the woods meant she'd probably get lost, but I didn't care. I quickly landed on the ground next to Jasper.

"I should make sure she gets back to town ok."

I grabbed him by the wrist and he turned to me.

"I understand you're mad and upset, but she could get hurt out here."

I pulled him into a hug. I felt jealous and mad and upset. He hugged me tightly.

"There is no one else in the world that I could love even half as much as I do you. She's lost and upset, she didn't mean it."

"Seems like she did."

"Let me go make sure she gets out fine. I'll meet you back at the house, ok?"

I nodded and ran off. I let the anger inside of me take me back to the house quickly. I stood out back and looked at the Boulder that sat against a tree. I pulled my arm back and punched it with all my might. It cracked in half and I looked at it in awe. I punched it again and again until it was about 12 separate pieces of rock and some gravel. Emmet walked outside probably interested in the noise.

"Hey, my favorite Boulder," He joked.

"It's dead now," I spoke.

"Woah who pissed on your rabbit?"

Jasper landed beside us suddenly.

"She's safe."

"What happened?"

"Sophie tried to make a move on Jasper."

"Sophie your old friend?"

I nodded and punched one of the bigger rocks left over from the boulder. My hand cracked a little and Jasper grabbed it.

"Stop punching rocks," he spoke.

"Would you rather it be her?" I asked whipping my head in his direction.

He kissed my hand.

"I'd rather it be nothing."

"Pshhhhh let her go ham. Her best friend just tried to get with her man behind her back. I'd be pissed too," Emmet said.

I looked at Emmet.

"It's not like he's her type."

"And what would that be?" Jasper asked.

"I don't know maybe human?" I said jokingly.

Jasper scoffed and walked off into the house. Emmet kept a smirk on his face.

"That was good."

"I wasn't trying to be smart. It just really pissed me off."

I frowned and Emmet out his arm around my shoulder.

"You should probably apologize, but I wouldn't," he said laughing.

I nodded and walked towards Jasper's room. I stood at the door and watched him. He stood at the balcony off his room, looking out I to the forest surrounding the house. I walked up to him and rested my head on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry."

"I understand, it's ok."

He turned and kissed my forehead. I smiled and looked out to the forest.

The day had finally came when we were to move to Alaska. I was so excited to finally be able to go out and talk to people other than the Cullen's. The group was good company, but the months I had spent in the house with them alone made me desperate for someone new to talk to. I had a bag of the things Jasper got for me when I moved in, Jasper left most of his things here for when we would eventually move back, but I didn't want to use his money to buy more. Jasper smiled as he saw me pick up the bag. I wore the yellow dress, which became my all time favorite dress when I turned, and yellow gloves. I didn't need gloves anymore, but I'd worn them for so long it felt a bit weird not to.

Rosalie decided she was going to go up early with me. The Cullen's were going to have a little party for Bella's birthday. We didn't want to risk her possibly finding me. I put my book bag on my back and smiled to Jasper. He kissed my forehead and I smiled. He grabbed my hand and intertwined our fingers.

"You ready to go?"

I nodded and he smiled.
