Chapter 16 : meetings

As the day wore on, Theo found himself drawn to the quiet tranquility of the forest surrounding the Cullen household. He wandered aimlessly among the towering trees, lost in thought as he tried to make sense of the events that had unfolded since his arrival.

As he walked, Theo couldn't shake the feeling of unease that lingered in the air, a constant reminder of the tensions that simmered just beneath the surface. He longed for a sense of peace, a respite from the chaos that seemed to follow him wherever he went.

Lost in his thoughts, Theo didn't notice the figure approaching him until he was standing right in front of him. Startled, he looked up to see Jasper standing before him, his expression unreadable.

"Hello, Theo," Jasper greeted him, his voice soft yet filled with authority. "Mind if I join you?"

Theo nodded, a sense of curiosity sparking within him as he watched Jasper carefully. Despite the tensions that had erupted between them the night before, he couldn't help but feel drawn to the enigmatic vampire standing before him.

As they walked together through the forest, Theo couldn't shake the feeling of unease that settled over him. He knew that Jasper was different from the other members of the Cullen family, his aura tinged with a sense of danger that sent a shiver down Theo's spine.

But as they talked, Theo found himself opening up to Jasper in a way he hadn't with anyone else. He shared his fears and insecurities, his hopes and dreams for the future, knowing that Jasper understood him in a way that no one else ever could.
