Human ~~ Jasper Whitlock - Hale ~~~

07

I ride out to the funeral home with Jasper. He has my hand in his the entire ride. We walk inside the depressing building. I stand beside my dad beside mom's open casket. She looks so perfect.

"She looks so peaceful." I whisper.

"She does, doesn't she?" Dad responds softly.

I lay my hand on hers and a tear escapes my cheek. I go and take my seat beside Jasper. He sits back while I sob into my hands. Jasper rubs my back softly when the preacher begins to speak.

I scream emotionally wen they close the casket. Rosalie holds me this time. She is able to calm me down quicker that Jasper can. She knows what I'm going through. When she was changed, she watched everyone she loved die. The others ran. Edward was laying in the bed beside his mom while she died and he was changed because of the same disease that killed her. Jasper and Alice don't remember their biological parents.

Rosalie drives me to the cemetery. I stand in Jasper's arms while we watch moms casket gets lowered six feet into the soil. It is damp outside because it rained last night, as usual. It is always rainy in Forks.

We ankle it home and Esme goes to make me a home cooked meal. Bella's eighteenth birthday is tomorrow. Mine isn't for a few months. Alice is wanting to throw Bella a party, Alice loves throwing parties so everyone but Bella agreed. Bella argues.

"You don't have to throw me a party." Bella pleads, she showed after the funeral.

"Too bad, I have already planned the event." Alice claps her hands together.

"Don't go all out." Bella exclaims.

I giggle. "Telling her that is like telling a dog not to bark."

Bella smiles at me then she gives Alice a stern look. Bella isn't too bad. I smile back at her and I drag her upstairs to my room.

"It's good having another human around." I smile.

"I bet." Bella smirks then frowns. "I'm sorry to hear about your mom."

I sigh. "It's okay. She looked so peaceful, ya know?"

Bella hugs me, taking me by surprise. After a minute, I hug her back. She gives me a reassuring squeeze before pulling away. We talk about her mom who now lives in Jacksonville, Florida. I hear it is beautiful there in the summer time.

Bella has to go around 10 at night. I hug her before demanding her out of my room, earning a laugh. I smile as she walks out. Alice is throwing a party, which means I have to wear a dress.

I open my closet, Rosalie bought me a bunch of crap. I pick out a beautiful dress and I lay it out on my vanity. I change into some pajamas before Jasper barges in. He kisses me on the lips. He growls and he flies against a wall behind him.

"I thought I'd be strong enough." He gasps. "You smell splendid."

"If I let you have a little of my blood, can you heel me?" I ask.

Jasper nods and he flashes up to me. I have read that this makes this stronger, the blood of their blood singer. Jasper bites into t arm hesitantly and he moans in satisfaction. He drinks a little bit before pulling away. He kisses me with more strength, not having to pull away.

"Good." I pat his shoulder.

Jasper chuckles and he hugs and tightly. We lay in my bed and he just holds me close as the meat turns to night. I close my eyes and allow sleep to take over.
