Chapter 22: Vision

Jasper's P.O.V

Sitting through Charlie's funeral was one of the hardest things I have ever done. feeling everyone's heartbreak and sadness was bad enough. Sitting next to Isabella, feeling her pain and not being able to do anything about it was torture. Well to be honest, I could have taken all of her pain away but that would have pissed her off and made it take longer for her to move on. She needs to feel the pain of her father's loss. It's part of a healthy recovery process, no matter how much it hurts me I know that much is true.

The service was beautiful and when the preacher was done, several of Charlie's friends told wonderful stories about how Charlie had changed their lives or helped them in their time of need. I never met Charlie but it was clear to me that he was a good man who was loved and missed by many. At the cemetery Isabella placed a single white rose on his coffin before they lowered him to his final resting place. Then she turned to me with tears still in her eyes and said " Jasper, I want to get out of here. Can you take me to my house, so I can get my things... I want to be far away from here."

When we pulled up to the house, the whole family was standing outside. "Hey Bella, come with me I will help you get your stuff" Rosalie said and took Isabella into the house. That was weird to say the least and I could feel everyone's worry. "Ok Carlisle , what's going one here?" I asked impatiently. "Well son, Alice had a vision that you would be needing our help. So here we are." He said. I turned to Alice, "What happened in you vision Alice?" She smiled at me although it didn't reach her eyes. She was feeling sad and scared but sure of herself. "Jasper, Edward will be here in five minuets and I have seen that it ould go very badly if you and Isabella were here alone when he arrives." A growl escaped from my chest.

Emmett stepped forward feeling confused. "Oh calm down Jaz, it's not like he is going to hurt Bella. He is her mate." he said. Another growl erupted from my chest as I said " He is not her mate. She is mine! My Isabella will never be his again! and I do not know that he won't hurt her once he figures that out."

Rosalie's P.O.V.

I was upstairs helping Bella pack up her things. I could hear Jasper and Em arguing about who Bella's mate was downstairs. I have to admit before we got back to Forks, I still believed that Edward was Bella's mate. But then I saw Jasper and Bella together. I could tell right away that something had changed in both of them. Bella only smiles when he is in the room and Jasper only has eyes for her. It was like they gravitate towards each other. I honestly don't think she would have made it through this without him constantly by her side. It was obvious to me that Isabella was truly Jasper's mate not Edward's.

Edward had left Bella over four months ago and had not been back since. I can't even spend more than a day away from my mate Emmett. The pain in my heart from the separation is just too much to bear. If Edward was really her mate he would have died from a broken heart by now. Which means there is no way he was ever mated to her. Maybe he loved her or maybe it was all just an extremely cruel game. I don't know but according to Alice's vision, we would soon find out.
