MY HEAD IS RESTING ON A HARD CHEST. Cold hands play with my hair and I slowly open my eyes. "Mornin' darlin'." Jasper says to me and I roll over on my back, my head laying in his lap. "Morning, what time is it?" I ask him and he checks on his watch. "Quarter past seven." I nod and move away to stand.
"I'll have to start getting ready." I say and grab my suitcase from the closet. "You can put your clothes in the closet, if you'd like?" I look at Jasper and raise my eyebrows. "You want me to stay here? With you?" I ask him and reach for my clothes, avoiding eye contact as my cheeks flush.
"Yes. Tallulah, I want you to stay here." I break out into a cheesy grin. "Are you sure? Because once I get my clothes in a closet, they will not be leaving." He chuckles slightly and I smile at him. Jasper nods his head and my heart flutters in my chest.
I hold my clothes in my hand. "It's settled then, you're stuck with me." I say and go into the bathroom. I close the door with a smile on my face. I strip out of my clothes and shower. I hang up the towel and take a glance at myself in the mirror.
At my body. At my bones which poke through my skin. I look at my stomach, turning to the side. I've gained weight. I widen my eyes and a shiver travels through my body. It's barely noticeable. But I can tell. I've spent my entire life being skin and bone, I can tell when I've gained even the smallest amount of weight.
"Tallulah?" Jasper's voice calls out on the other side of the door. "Tallulah, what's wrong?" He asks and only then I remember that he can feel what I'm feeling. I shove away my disgust and clear my throat. "I'm okay." I reply and dress myself. My body feels different and I hate it.
I hate the way my body looks.

I arrive at school with the Cullens. Jasper gets out of the car and opens my door for me. I give him a smile and he takes my hand. "You know everyone's gonna be talking about us, right?" I say to him and everyone watches us as we pass.
He moves and places his arm around my shoulders. We walk past everyone and I hear their whispers. Jasper and I move to sit at the benches outside and Edward stands there with Bella walking towards him. "There she goes, going to confront him." I mutter under my breath and Jasper chuckles.

Jasper's arm is hooked under my knees and the other holds my waist gently. My arms are placed on his chest as he runs through the woods. I lean my head against his chest and Jasper comes to a stop. He gently puts me on my feet. "That was amazing." I say with a chuckle.
