Chapter four: Jasper's missing

I woke up in the same forest as last time, this time I knew I was dreaming. In the distance I heard a howl. My heart fluttered, maybe it was that wolf? I took a step forward, towards the howl. Maybe I could find him. " Valentine no" it was a ghostly whisper coming from my right. I turned to look at the owner of the voice. It was Jasper. I took another step towards the howl. " I said no." In a split second Jasper had me pinned against a tree. His face was close to mine, I turned my head so my lips weren't brushing his. My heart was beating wildly.His nose brushed my throat. I squeezed my eyes shut, please wake up. Make this feeling go away. I heard a growl and My eyes snapped open. It was the gray wolf. In a second the wolf was running at Jasper. I screamed.

I shot up, a scream stuck in my throat. I couldn't breath. I brought my knees to my chest, rocking slightly. In the dream Jasper almost kissed me... my hand involuntary shot up to touch my lips. Was that my hidden feelings leaking into my dream or something else? No, it couldn't be "hidden feelings" I felt fear, fear and love. But the wolf, what was that about? I remember wanting the wolf not Jasper. Why did the wolf attack Jasper when he pinned me up against the tree? Was the wolf.....Jealous?

The morning was a rush. Shower, get dressed, makeup, eat, and then I was out the door and it was only 7:20 AM. I leaned against Bella's truck. My oversize white, knitted sweater hung off one shoulder, The sleeves were a bit long, they hung over my hands. And with that I wore dark leggings, with a grey infinity scarf. I picked my foot up and put it on the side off the truck. I stared up at the sky, the sun was covered by the clouds but I still wore sunglasses. I put in both of my headphones, blasting my music.

My head was bobbing in tune to the music when Bella finally came out. My eyes slid to the side, looking at her. She looked up "What?" I shook my head and walked over to the passenger side door. She fumbled with her keys once she got in. Once she got the key in the ignition she looked over at me " Can you turn down your music?" She asked politely. I took out my headphone cord out of the phone so the music filled the truck. She looked surprised for a second and then she grinned. "You like Melanie Martinez?" She asked. " Yeah, Carousel is my favorite yours?" I grinned too. " Soap for sure." We spent the entire car ride singing along with my music. Once we got to school I turned my music down. Bella parked close to the entrance.

When we got out, we split. Bella went with her friends and I went with.....nobody. Well that's kinda depressing I frowned. Out of nowhere Spencer came who picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. I squealed in surprise. "Spencer! Put me down!" He laughed " Nope, you look sad so I'm here to cheer you up!" I grinned. He carried me to the school doors and then he put me down. I brushed myself off and looked up at Spencer. " I'll see you at lunch." He grinned and went to his classes. Spencer seemed like he was a good guy. But he was only on my mind for a second and then i felt my heart skip a beat when I thought of Jasper. I hurried through my classes, the day was going slow.

Finally it was time for lunch, I scanned the room for him but he wasn't there. I frowned. Maybe he skipped lunch, I'll probably see him in History.

"He's not gonna be there you know." The voice in the back of my head whispered, The frown on my face stayed till the end of lunch. I sat alone, I get that I was the new girl but c'mon the school is not that big. I stood up from my empty table and dumped my trash. I got to History early, like 15 minutes early.

I sighed, this sucks. I was alone the entire time in History, Jasper never came.

And he didn't come to school for another week. My days went slowly. Eat, sleep, hunt, school, and school. I was bored. It was Sunday night and Charlie was out, Bella was doing Bella things. I was home alone. The house was quiet. Too quiet.

I sat up in my bed and grabbed my phone and my speakers.

I ran down the stairs, more like took two steps and jumped landing on my toes. I grinned, putting the speakers on the table. I sifted through the cabinets, finally I found it.

Cookies.

I grabbed the cookies and then my speakers and went down to the basement where my punching bag was. I grinned even wider. Even though I was an Omega, I kept myself fit cus I'm still a werewolf and I'm built to fight.

I didn't even wrap my knuckles I just took off my shirt so I was in my sports bra and then I took off my shoes and socks. I pushed play on my music and turned it up so it was blasting..

One, two, three punch, uppercut, kick, knee, elbow. My routine had me spinning and kicking sending the bag slamming into the cement wall, time after time. It must have been three hours and my knuckles were bloody but I was just getting started and even over my music I still heard the doorbell ring. I stopped, mid swing. I paused my music and jogged up the stairs, taking two at a time.

The persons scent at the door wasn't familiar but then again nobody in this town was. I grabbed a towel off the counter and started tending to my bloody knuckles, I answered the door at the same time. " Um hello?" I asked the person at the door. it was an older man, he was in a wheel chair, there was a younger looking boy there too. They both had tan skin and long black hair.

" I'm Billy Black, One of Charlie's friends. Who are you?" The man in the wheel chair, Billy, asked. I leaned on the door casually. " I'm Valentine Swan, Charlie's niece." I smiled at him but I could feel the distrust coming off him in waves. " Oh, I thought you would look different." He said rudely. My brow furrowed. I bowed my head and opened the door more for them to come in. He wheeled himself in, the boy smiled at me, my head was still bowed. Billy turned his wheel around, glaring at me, I saw this out of the corner of my eye. The boy glanced down at my fists, worryingly.

"You alright?" He asked. I nodded and shut the door. " Charlie's out, do you want me to tell him you came?" I said, lifting my head a little. Billy nodded, looking around. " Jacob, go wait in the car, I need to talk to Valentine. Alone." Billy instructed the boy, Jacob. Jacob groaned but walked out.

" Alright, I'm gonna be straight out blunt here. Your obviously new to town so I don't know if your part of the Cullens but all you get to know is stay. Off. The. Reservation. " He then wheeled himself out.

I stood there, shocked. H-How did he know that I'm part Vampire? Eyes, my eyes. My goddamn eyes. I growled and shut the door.
