My Mate JasperXOC

CH18-You Knew?!

Jasper and I walk to my truck and he opens the driver's door tossing both his and my bag into the vehicle. He turns to look at me with a raised eyebrow. "You don't lock your car?" He inquires, closing the door and leaning against it looking on at me in amusement and playful disappointment.

"I just don't wanna have to fish my keys out every time I need to get into my truck. Plus anyone can pick any type of lock nowadays, wouldn't it just be redundant?" I counter. He rolls his eyes. "Especially after what happened at that store you should be locking your car whenever you leave it and when you're inside even in park. It may be redundant but it's an added obstacle that makes stealing and stalking that much more difficult." He explains. My turn to roll my eyes, even though I know he's right.

What can I say? I'm stubborn.

Jas and I wait for Bella and Edward to emerge from the forest they walked into.

It seems to be hours before we see them come from the direction they originally went. Bella is walking just in front of Edward with her hands in her pockets and her head down. Anyone taking a simple glance at her would say she's unhappy, upset even.

"It's ok. She's-" Jasper starts.

"Happy." I finish, seeing a small minute smile gently placed on her pale lips.

I let my lips perk up slightly at the sight of my sister's happy expression. It's definitely a sight to behold.

Bella raises her head and stops short when she sees Jas and I standing there.

Bella's POV

"So who else knows about this?" I ask Edward.

"No one really," he says. He pauses and continues, "Your sister."

I feel anger rise in my body as I'm met with the realization that she knew everything. Liz knew and didn't tell me. Even worse she hid it from me and pretended to not know for months!

"How long has she known?" I ask feeling distraught that my own sister wouldn't tell me what Edward and the other Cullens really are.

"Since her and Jasper got together, I think." Is his response.

I shake my head and continue the trek to my truck. Which is sadly close to Elizabeth's. I make it to the driver door before she stops me.

"Hey Sis! Did you get things sorted out with Edward?" I hear her perky curious voice inquires from the side of me.

I grip the handle of the truck door as I try not to burst from the anger.

"Wouldn't you like to know." I say instead as I snap the door open, hop into the vehicle and slam the door shut behind me.

I start my truck and race away from my sister and out of the parking lot.

Liz's POV

I watch in shock as my sister speeds out of the parking lot and turns around the corner.

My lips form into a pout as I'm awestruck and hurt by her attitude towards me when I didn't do anything to her.

I turn sharply catching Edward standing before me. I narrow my eyes at him. "What'd you do?" He shrugs innocently.

"Not me. You. Or rather what you didn't do. Turns out she's not just mad at me after all." He says semi smugly.

I look at him in confusion from his words.

Mad at me? For what? What'd I d-

Realization peaks as I take in the reason why she's mad at me.
