Emily Swan✨Breaking Dawn Pt 2✨Jasper Hale

Chapter 10

Emily's PoV

The snow was starting to stick and no doubt everyone could feel the confrontation with the Volturi getting closer.

Tonight everyone decided to sit around a camp fire and listen to war stories, while Bella and I sat in some tents comforting our children.

As I cuddle Matthew I over hear Edward and Carlisle's conversation.

"I can't help thinking, all these people are putting themselves in danger because Jasper and I fell in love with humans," Edward whispers to Carlisle.

Carlisle, "you found your mate. You deserve to be happy. And so does Jasper."

"But at what cost?"

I could sense Carlisle was smiling at Edward, "Everyone here has something to fight for. I certainly do."

I smile thinking about how I was fighting for Matthew and Jasper. To keep our family whole.

I could sense Edward watching Bella and I.

"Carlisle, I've never thanked you. For this extraordinary life."

I smile widely.

"Mummy, are you okay?"

I turn to my son.

"Yes, Sweetie I'm alright," I reply, bringing him closer to me.

He frowns, "you miss daddy don't you?"

I give him a small smile before picking up a little journal next to me.

I pass it to him, "Your father gave this to me, on my eighteenth birthday. And ever since that day I have written about my fairytale story, of how I fell in love with daddy."

He smiles widely.

"I want you to have it, to cherish and remember me, just in case anything happens with the Volturi," I explain.

He turn to me with a tear in his eye, "your not gonna leave me are you mummy?"

I shake my head, "I'll fight for as long as I can so that I can see your face again."

"Promise?"

I smile at him, "I promise."

Matthew and Renesmee had finally gone to sleep, wrapped up nice and warm in the tent.

Edward, Bella and I all finally join everyone else around the fire. Bella sits on Edwards lap, while I cuddle up to Rosalie.

I stare deeply into the fire, I couldn't stop myself from thinking about Jasper. Was he okay? Has he found a way to save our son? Will he come back to me?

"Emily," I hear a gently voice call out.

I glance over in that direction.

"Emily, sweetie you're crying," Esme calls out, speeding over to me.

She pulls me into her embrace, and I wipe my eyes, but the tears don't seem to stop.

"I didn't even realise," I murmur.

"Shh, it okay," she says, stroking my hair.

"I just never realised why my mum was so protective of me, until now. I don't think I can protect my baby, Esme," I whisper, even though everyone was listening.

"Of course you can. And we are all here to help you," she tells me.

I shake my head, "it's not just that. I can't function without jasper. It's killing me Esme. It feels like every time I finally get somewhere, he leaves. It breaks my heart, and I don't think I can go through it this time."

It goes completely silent.

Until Bella speaks up, "Em. You love Jasper don't you?"

I nod.

"Then focus on that. The pain you feel, turn it into anger and fight for him."

I sigh, "I've never stopped fighting, Bella. I just, I just think I need a mum."

I then turn to Esme, who smiles brightly.

"Oh honey," she then hugs me tightly as I lean into her motherly touch.
