Due to the response I got, here is a new chapter
Charlie looked at Jasper for a few minutes. “Well, I can’t let a kid go without a place to lie down his head. We have a spare room. You can call it your own from now on.” He said and looked at me. “Show it to him and please, you two, don’t be hooking up under my roof.” We laughed and I took Jasper upstairs.
“Problem solved. However, if you don’t feel comfortable lying in this room all alone at night, you are welcome to stay in mine while I sleep.” I told him.
“Bella, are you sure?” He asked worriedly.
“I wouldn’t have it any other way.” I assured him. “I’m right next door if you need me.” With that I left and went to my room to straighten it up.
My room had become completely disgusting. There were dirty clothes lying everywhere and food wrappers all over the floor. I started with the wrappers first and then started on the clothes, throwing them in the wash and such. As I walked past Jasper’s door, I heard the sound of sniffling. Knocking lightly, I peeked in. Jasper was curled up in bed with his knees to his chin and his arms wrapped around himself.
“Jasper,” I whispered and went to him. His eyes glistened with the tears he couldn’t make. “What’s wrong?” I asked as he made a sobbing noise. Without second thought, I brought him into a cuddle. “Tell me what is wrong. Maybe I can make it better.”
“Bella,” he sighed. “I lost Alice.” He dry sobbed again. “Edward… he… he… took her from me. Emmet tried to stop me when I attacked Edward, but I just hurt him. He flew into a tree. He hates me.” There was another few sobs. “Alice… she didn’t love me… she told me lies…”
“If Alice doesn’t love you than that is her loss because you are an amazing man.” I told him. Oh, that little pixie was going to get killed if I ever saw her again. He wrapped his arms around me and quietly sniffled again. “You listen to me, Mr. Whitlock. You deserve so much better than that. Don’t give up on love.”
He pulled back and smiled. “I guess you’d be the best to give that advice.” He smiled and turned his head away. “I’m sorry. You shouldn’t have to see me like this.”
I turned his face back to mine. “Don’t apologize. I’m here for you.” I pressed a kiss to his cheek. “Want to come watch me make dinner?”
We went down to the kitchen together and passed a sleeping Charlie on the way. I giggled. For dinner I decided on lasagna. Jasper watched carefully and tried stealing the cheese. I watched as he ate a handful, happily, I might add. “How’d you do that?”
“Magic,” he said sarcastically. “I like some human food.” I laughed.
“Does that mean you will eat dinner with us?”
“Is that an invite?”
I blushed. “You’re always invited.”
Jasper’s point of view: From the beginning of Bella’s view
As my now usual routine, I dressed myself and went to find my backpack. I had stayed at a hotel overnight, like usual, but now I’m at least where I want to be. Forks Washington. I walked to school and found my first class easily. English. I chose and empty table in the middle of the classroom, near a window. The smell of blood wasn’t too bad today. Oh damn, spoke too soon. The scent that filled my nose was amazing. I’ve smelled this before. My mind shouted at me.
Isabella Swan walked through the class room door and I almost didn’t recognize her in her little outfit. She was gorgeous. Of course the only seat open would be the one next to me. I knew she saw me because she froze for a second before her emotions shot through the roof. She was so excited and very happy to see me. Curiosity filled her too, of course. She sat down next to be and ripped out a piece of paper from her book.
I watched as she scribbled on it quickly. She passed it to me and I hesitantly looked at it.
I’m sorry, Jasper. I know how bad my blood calls to you. I’m sorry.
What? Aw, she thinks I’m in pain. She’s worried about me. How sweet. No, I’m not being sarcastic. I scribbled a note back and watched as she read it. Once her emotions were okay, I scooted my chair closer to hers since she tried to discreetly move away from me. She smiled at me. “Hello Miss Isabella, you look beautiful.” I said softly and watched her cheeks turn pink.
“Mr. Whitlock, you are too kind.” She told me and I laughed. Noticing her hand sitting on the desk between our bodies, I place mine on top of hers.
“No, I’m not even close. You are much more than beautiful, but that is being too bold.” Her cheeks turned red this time and I tried to stifle a chuckle.
She looked at me and I watched as her eyes went up and down my body, sending a chill through my spine. “Jasper, you look really nice.” I loved when she said my name. I turned my head away. I blushed even though it wasn’t noticeable.
“Thanks, I dressed myself.” She giggled. “I’ve been dressing myself.” She stopped laughing. Bella understood something wasn’t right. Class started and I never pulled my hand from hers. Even after class we walked together. However, we didn’t talk. I wanted too, but I didn’t. At lunch Bella was pulled away from me and I went to sit by myself. I missed Bella’s warmth.
Bella and I didn’t have our last classes together. She had Gym and I had Spanish. I walked her to her class, but then hurried to mine. Class was fun today. Ms. Jaco kept asking how to say certain things in Spanish and I enjoyed saying them. This was the one language I always wanted to learn, but never did because Alice didn’t think it was sexy. When class was over I got to Bella just as she exited class and we walked to the lot together. “Do you want a ride?” She asked after looking around the parking lot. Oh, so she noticed I didn’t have a car.
Review please!
