Everything you touch..

'It's for the best' that's what Jasper has told her, that she 'needed to calm down'. Which was complete and utter bullshit considering it had been a few hours and she was probably angrier then before.

So when Edward's Volvo (which Jasper and a reluctant Ivonna had been forced to take) pulled up at the Cullen household after their long drive. Jasper didn't hesitate to rush out to give his family a fore warning- which would've worked out great if Ivonna didn't get there first.

"Give me one good reason Edward why I shouldn't tear you head straight off your shoulders!" Her words seething in a fiery fury, her fingers wrapping around his throat, pinning him to the wall- a large crack in its infrastructure.

"Ivonna." Carlisle's stern voice broke through, tucking Esme further into his hold, her motherly instinct fearing the worst over her children fighting.

"No. I'm sure you all had your voice of reason. Now I get mine!"

With that being said Carlisle sealed his lips, stepping back to watch it play out, concern clouding him. Alice looking like she was in a daze- trying to see the outcome of the quarrel, while Rosalie pursued forward on the couch, intrigued and eager, matching her mate. Though Jasper- much like Carlisle, couldn't help the  daunting feelings creep up him, only wanting to pull her into his grasp.

"Ivonna listen, she was going to die! I couldn't let-"

"Nature take its course? She was bound to die! That wasn't your choice to make!"

Edward's mind went haywire at the thoughts she was proceeding, wanting the situation to drop and tell his sister he's sorry but Ivonna was never one to forgive and forget. "Listen I know what you may think-"

"No! Shut your mouth and listen to me!" In an instant he did as she said, under her compulsion that he couldn't seem to break.

"Of course you know what I'm thinking Edward!You know what we're all thinking, so pray do tell why you continue to justify yourself? You put us ALL in danger, so if we have to move again-because of you- and start over playing human, then i swear on my cold dead body I will-"

Ivonna didn't get to finish her sentence as Emmett was holding her back, under the watchful eye of their coven leader- though is gaze didn't show anger or disappointment in her, nor did last on his strongest son. Quickly diverting to vampire against the wall who caught everyone's attention, his hands were on his throat, feeling the cracks mend on his porcelain skin.

Ivonna couldn't help but gasp, tears pooled in her dark irises that she knew would never fall.
Her lips gaped, before shutting again, lost for words. She tried to mutter an apology but the observation on her was too much. Sparing a glance at the boy she had no desire of hurting- because deep down she knew she didn't want follow through on her words, not when it came to family. He sported a forgiving stance, but she couldn't cope with it, leaving no delay in rushing out the house and into the surrounding woods.

"He doesn't blame you." The southern slur sounded through the vast woodland, setting into a squat next to the bloodied girl, grasping her clenched fists and bringing them up to his face, planting a loving kiss on her knuckles.

"I do." It was merely a whisper but he heard it clear as day, dropping her hands and clutching her face instead, the pad of his thumb running along the smooth skin of her cheek,

"You were enraged, we all were. You can't help how you feel." His words were soft and sorrowful, easing her emotions to the best he could.

Tearless sobs racked through her body, the blood she had previously been feeding from a qdrying on her pale skin but that was the last of Jasper's worries, his frame engulfed her, arms wrapping round her torso in a tight embrace, his scarred hand trailing to the back of her head letting it lie in the crook of his neck, her fingers clutching his jumper as he sent tsunami of serenity into her troubled mind.
"I could've killed him."

"But you didn't, and as much as you hurt him, we all know.. I know, that family means more to you then anything, so it wasn't without reason." Jasper paused for a moment before chuckling, "Anyway, your Ivonna Cullen, and your pretty little head is way too stubborn for good. So your going pick yourself up and march back into that house with one of your brightest smiles that brings life a room full of dead in an instant."

Against his shoulder he felt a small giggle and her grin widen, "Jasper Hale, I love you."

"And I love you more Darlin'."
