My face had still not changed from its cold orgin, even after 15 hours. My eyes were like cool glass, not expression one single emotion even if they wanted to. My trust in Edward had been broken, a trust I valued so high it couldn't be understood by another soul. The respect I had for him had vanished with a snap of my fingers, like sand in a storm. Everything I had put into him, respect, trust, faith. All of that had been blown away by just a few sentences, and it hurt. I hurt so unimaginable much that I wanted to just lay down and never get up again. But I knew I couldn't do that, so instead I had got my private jet ready. Jasper and I would fly to Thailand, and from there we would take a boat out to his lsland where we would stay for a little more than a month.
I didn't even say a proper goodbye to everyone before I had sat myself in the car we would take to Seattle airport. Jasper took a little longer before he had opened the passenger door, sat himself in the seat beside me and took ahold of my hand with his. And gave me a soft smile, though with Edward still in the house I couldn't afford to tear the walls down so I kept my face in its plane look. He didn't bat an eye at the coldness currenly taking place in me, but instead he only began to caress my hand with his.
That was why I loved this man with my entire heart. Because I knew that if we just were together everything would work out in the end.

Our luggage had been carried into the plane by a few humans, everything was set for takeoff as we both walked into the plane with the held of the stairs. Two pilots sat in the front, I gave them a tight smile which didn't reach my eyes, but even so they smiled two genuine smiles back to me. Jasper also gave them a smile and said a few greetings before he smiled as a goodbye and closed the curtains to the lounge part of the plane. I heard the engines start and I sat myself down in one of the seats with a more defeated look on my face, thinking over the words Edward had said to me.
"I've seen how much of a monster you can truly be..."
Monster, it was a thing I never thought someone in my family would call me. But somehow I knew this would happen one day, deep inside me I knew someone of them would call me for what I really was, even how much it hurt them or me.
Jasper sat down beside me, my eyes looking out the window as we began to fastly speed down the runway. He brushed a lock away from my face and secured it behind my head, it made me turn my head around to look at him. His eyes looked down at me, a smile on his lips as his hand cupped my cheek and gently caressed it. He took ahold of my knees and lifted me off of my seat. "Come here."
He sat me down in his lap, laid me against his chest and looked down at me with those eyes of his. My hard exterior began to crumble down and I seated myself into his lap, cuddled my head against his chest. He changed seats, sitting in the armchair closer to the wall to later lay his legs out on a stool he had brought to in front of him. My eyes were casted downwards, looking at my hands as I imagined them covered in blood I had shedded during my past years.
"Did he mean it?" I continued to look down on my hands when I spoke those words.
"I don't know, Darling..." It made my lips turn down. "But if he did... If he did he has no idea what he has lost."

During the time in the plane he had managed to bring a smile onto my lips, he'd even made me laugh a few times. It was one of his special talents, making me cheer up even in the darkest of moments. We landed in Bankok, the capital of Thailand. It was a party town when the moon was brough upon the sky, and thankfully the stars seemed to be on our side this evening because the night had arisen. We walked out the plane, arm in arm, large grins on our lips. We had already told the airport personnel to transfer our bags to the boat we would use, so that was one less problem to wonder about.
