We Meet Again

Chapter 3

Bella

Jasper looks at me waiting for an answer. I wanted to answer him but I knew it wasn't him my anger needed to go to. I hold up my finger and ask for another beer. Jasper steps outside the door and comes back in with a case of beer. I grab one and open it taking a huge drink.

"Yeah, you are missing something. The anger you may feel is in no way directed at you and I will apologize now in case you feel it. I'm trying to block my emotions from escaping but I'm not sure if I'll be able to." I take another drink before continuing. "The night of my party he took me home and said good night. He didn't come back that night like he usually did. The next morning I got up and went to school. I didn't see any of you and I thought maybe everyone stayed home to go hunting or something. The rest of the day passed by with no sight, no call, and no text. I got home to find Fuckward standing on my porch."

I told him what happened and what was said. I wasn't sure if it was my anger retelling the story or if Jasper was starting to project his anger. I then told him what the next six months consisted of. I told him how I snapped myself out of the funk and started living my life. I told him for the last six months I had been getting calls from Fuckward so one day I snapped. I told him I'm the one who told Fuckward that I died because I wanted him to leave me alone.

"Wait, so Edward told you that he wanted nothing to do with you? Bella, Emmett and I fought to make sure you were okay but Edward and Alice told us you wanted nothing to do with the family."

"Jasper, what happened to you? You went back to drinking human blood, but I thought you liked the animal blood?"

"I did like it but it was making me weaker. When I moved back here I had to. A month after being here I heard something in the barn so I went to check it out. I found an older man raping a young woman. I felt that he had done it with other women. I snapped and killed him. I dazzled the woman and let her on her merry way."

"You saved someone Jasper. That is what counts. I don't care that you went back to human blood. Not my choice."

"Bella, what happened to you? You aren't like the Bella we left behind. I'm not complaining or anything."

"Well, let's just say I've had several encounters with so many creatures it's unreal." I finish my second beer.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, while I was in my funk Victoria came by. She intended to kill me but when she found what Fuckward did to me she swore to get revenge. Two weeks after her visit I got a visit from Alec and Jane Volturi. They kindly informed me that I have three years to turn into a vampire. They also passed me a message from Marcus. According to him I'm destined to become a vampire when my mate finds me."

The minute I said mate Peter came in and pulls me out of the room. Jasper growls and Peter smirks racing down to the living room.

"Darlin', you may wanna call your pa an' let him know you won't be comin' back to your apartment for a few days." Peter smiles.

"My dad will be leaving in two days. I can't call and tell him that. I may be able to get away with tonight but not a few days."

"I don't think Major will let ya leave there, Darlin'."

"Captain!" Jasper comes down the stairs in a menacing way.

"Major, she knows."

"Know what?" I ask.

"She was telling me a message that was passed along to her. She doesn't know shit. Now I would love to find out more from her. I would appreciate you leaving us the hell alone. If you interrupt us one more time I will rip your fucking arms off understood," Jasper tells him eyes narrowing.
