You and Jasper had been together for a few years, having meet shortly after you had finished school. You weren't a vampire but you were immortal so the Cullen's offered you to stay with them and it was an easy choice as you would never leave Jasper. You loved him too much.
However, in the time you have been together, you knew you hadn't shown any of them what you were truly capable of and that was your choice. It wasn't that you didn't trust him or your family, it was because your kind had been killed off for years so you chose not to say anything. Jasper did know about your powers but he had never seen it in action.
"Do I have to go?" You pouted.
Jasper chuckled as he rested his head on your shoulder, "Come on, love. No pouting. You will get through this, I'll be right with you."
You rolled your eyes, "I just don't think it's fair that we are cleaning up Bella and Edward's mess. This started with them so it should finish with them. I'd rather not get involved nor do I want you to get involved."
It wasn't that you hated Bella or Edward, you just didn't like how they always managed to make everything about them and not care who got hurt in the process. Your family had to clear up their mess more than once and it wasn't fair to any of you.
Jasper sighed, "I know, love but we are doing this for our family so please just suck it up and lets get through this."
"Fine but only because you asked."
"I'm a lucky man."

"I would like to try." You spoke up.
Everyone was obviously skeptical about you fighting as they had no idea what you were capable of and the last thing they wanted was for you to get hurt, even if you were only fighting your mate.
"Are you sure you can handle it?" Edward questioned skeptically.
You glared at him, "Step up, pretty boy and I'll show you how much I can handle." Edward did as told and stepped towards you. Within 7 seconds you had him flat on his ass and everyone was flabbergasted. No one knew how to react as you made your way back to your mate.
"What was that, darling?" Jasper asked.
You smirked, "I'm allowed to some secret, love."
"Why didn't you tell us?"
You sighed, "It wasn't that I didn't want to tell you, I was scared. My kind has been hunted for as long as I can remember and the last thing I wanted was for the Volturi to get involved. I'm sorry."
"It's okay, we understand."
You looked at Jasper, "I'm sorry I didn't tell you."
"The only thing I want is for you to be safe and happy. I know why you didn't tell me and I'm not angry. I'm always going to protect you, no matter what." He vowed before pressing a kiss to your head."
"Have I told you how much I love you?"
"I love you too, darling."
