“I’m not feeling very well,” I said and it wasn’t a lie. I hadn’t felt well in since I’d gotten back to Forks, maybe it was because of knowing why I was back or maybe because I was afraid of being alone with the person that was staring at me from the edge of the forest. 

“You weren’t even going to goodbye?” Jasper asked as he stepped closer to me. “Because that’s what this is, isn’t it? You’re leaving, running from your fears.”

“I’m not running from anything.” I said as I jerked my car door open. “And I’m not leaving, I’m staying for a few days.”

“Where?” Jasper asked as he grabbed the door, preventing me from closing it. “Where are you staying?”

“That is none of your business.” I glared at his hand. “Do you mind? I need to get going.”

“We need to talk, Chloe.” He insisted, still holding my door.

“We have nothing to talk about, I thought I made that clear when I left.” 

“This is about Bella.” 

I stared at him for a minute. “Fine, get in. But you better make it quick.” 

Jasper flashed me a smile then got into the passenger seat. “Head of out town, I’ll tell you where to stop.”

I glanced at him as I started the car and followed his directions. “Aren’t you worried about the others noticing your missing?”

“They knew I needed to talk to you.” He glanced over at me. “It was actually Alice’s idea. She thought you would take it better if you heard it from me.”

“Heard what from you?” I glanced at him for a few seconds. “What did Bella do now?”

“It’s not what she’s done but what she’s planning to do.” He glanced out his window, “pull over to the right down here.”

“Jasper, what is Bella going to do?” I asked as I pulled over. “Tell me, now.”

“Let’s take a walk.” He got out of my car before I could stop him. 

“Fine,” I said as I got out and slammed the door behind me. 

“Grumpy much?” He asked as he grabbed my hand in started walking.

I pulled my hand away. “Annoying much?”

Jasper grinned over at me. “Sarcastic as always.”

“Seriously Jasper, what’s going on?” I demanded as I stopped walking a few minutes later.

“Bella wants to become a vampire.” He said it so calmly, like he said he wanted pizza for dinner.
