Peter and I get to the pack house and see everyone waiting for us. As we walk in the door Emily runs over to make tackling me in a hug and then smacks me up side the head. "That better be your last time of dying missy. And saying goodbye like that, you can't do that to my mom heart." She says with her voice cracking.

I start to tear up. "I'm sorry momma. I didn't know what else to do. I'm sorry." As I hug her back.

"I am just glad you are alive. Sam told me about the true love bond. How do you feel about that?"

"Can I actually talk to you outside about that?" I asked her.

"Yeah of course."

"Dad can you come too please?" I asked him.

We all three went outside and I knew what I was going to talk to them about would be hard. "So I know me asking you to talk about this may be hard, but mom I think  you will see where I am coming from, and dad you can give me the male side point of view." They both nodded and waited for me to continue.

"Okay, mom, when you found out dad imprinted on you, but also found out he had broken up with Leah for you basically was there ever a time you felt like he was still hung up on her? Or you compared yourself to her wondering if dad was actually all about you?" I ask.

Both looked shocked that I was asking this. I normally did not pry into their private life.
"Well, when I first found out Sam broke up with Leah and then started talking to me, I did struggle with that insecurity a little bit. I always wondered if part of him still loved her and wanted her and why he would want me. Over time, he showed me that he was all about me and slowly that insecurity went away. Payton, what exactly is this about?" She asked softly.

"I guess I am just in my head about going back to Jasper. Like does he actually want me or is it just because the bond says so? Does he really love me or is he just settling because he has to? Was/is he still hung up on Maria? I always question if she really was better than me or if I really am enough for him." I say with tears in my eyes. "I want him to love me, like I love him." I voice out quietly.

Dad brings me into a hug and rests his chin on my head. "When I laid eyes on your mom, she was the most beautiful thing in the world. I knew as soon as I saw her, she was it. Yes the imprint bond brought us together, but my love for her is my choice. And I choose to love her and no one else. No one can compare to her. Sometimes boys tend to say things that aren't true to mask what they really feel. Payton you didn't see they way Jasper hung onto your body when you died. He was crying and wouldn't let you go. Anytime someone would try and get near you he would hold you tighter in fear they would take you from him. I truly believe he does love you and is not hung up on his ex. I think he just said those things to get you to not fight him on them leaving. Yes it was a terrible thing for him to say and do and I am not defending him. He is just a a typical guy snow. We say things we never mean to the ones we love thinking it'll be best. I know you are scared but this new bond between you two is so rare it almost never happens." Dad finishes telling me.

I take in every word he says. Soon mom grabs my hand "Snow, never, ever, compare yourself to someone else. You are beautiful, confident, strong, kind, passionate, and so many more wonderful things. When you set your mind to something you are so determined you get the outcome you want. You are a Uley now, so grab ahold of that inner determination and hard headedness, walk over to that boys house and give him a knock out kiss. Show him what he has missed. Make that boy drop to his knees for you because you are worth being chased. Let him chase you, let him love you, let him show you he is sorry, and let him show you that you are the only girl for him. Stop doubting and stop running and get your man back Payton." Mom says in her mom voice.

She's right. I need to do this. Jasper is back and I really do not want to lose him again. "You really think I can do this?"

"Payton, you can do anything. Now, you have been hurting enough. For 9 months you have suffered and now he is back. He wants you, and needs you, so go and make him fall head over heels in love with you all over again okay?"

"Yeah okay I can do this." I start to walk away and stop. I turn back around and look at my parents. "Okay do I like go and stake my claim when he is alone? Or do I do it in front of his family not giving too shits anymore?" I ask.

"You walk into that house, no matter who is there, you grab ahold of him and pull him into a knee weakling kiss and you tell him that he is yours and not going anywhere. Claim back what is yours in front of others so he knows you are serious." Dad tells me.

"Okay thanks dad."

I turn back around and go to the Cullen's house. As I walk their I channel my inner badass bitch. When I reach their house, I walk right in, walking into the living room. I see jasper stand up and his family around the living room. I don't care about them right now all I care about his him.

I walk confidently up to him, place my hand on his chest, push him against the wall and attach my lips him giving him a deep intense kiss and do not break away until he moans against my lips.

"You are mine cowboy." I whisper in his ear. I know the others can hear me.

He looks me in the eyes as they flash blue and smirks,
"Yes ma'am."
