A day later with Alice and a very nervous Jasper in the waiting room, now would be a good time to tell Paul about them. Despite the reassurances that Jasper wouldn't hurt anyone, he was still nervous. Also very overwhelmed with all the emotions surrounding him, along with the confusion as to why he was even here.
"Paul," Carlisle called softly. He lifted his head and looked at the vampire. "There's something you should know about Caylee."
"I know just about everything about Caylee." He snorted back.
"She has one family member left." That caused the wolf to be shocked. The only family she had left was Gran, and she's gone. Thinking about it made him tear up again.
"My daughter, Alice, she is related to your friend. Before Alice was turned she had a younger sister named Cynthia. You knew Cynthia didn't you?"
Already at Paul's side, Sam and Jared stood cautiously. "Of course I knew her. Gran basically adopted me as her own grandson after I met Caylee."
"She and Alice we siblings. Thia was Alice's younger sister and Caylee's grandmother." Carlisle said slowly.
"So you're telling me that my best friend is related to a bloodsucker?"
"My daughter is anxiously waiting to meet her as she hasn't been able to have contact or full memories with any of her family members since before she was 19." The older vampire responded.
"No. I'm not letting my best friend hang out with a bunch of leeches. I will stay with her."
The change in beeping brought them both out of their conversation as the small girl began waking up. Quickly pulling himself away from her, Paul was basically bouncing in anticipation.
"P-paul?" her voice rasped out. "What's going on?"
"Sh, Cay. Try not to talk much. You're in the hospital." He spoke in a soft voice.
Realization hit her and her eyes widened, looking at Doctor Cullen with a questioning gaze.
"Hello Caylee, I'm Dr. Cullen. Paul brought you in the other day after finding you bleeding out. You're very lucky to be alive." he said with his small smile.
"Is that true?" she glanced at her best friend.
With tears in her eyes she watched as he nodded. "Why would you do something like that Cay? Wh-"
"Why did you save me?" she let out harshly, causing everyone to flinch.
"Well I couldn't let you die Caylee. What were you even doing trying something like that?"
"I wanted to. You don't get to leave me and then come back and fuck everything up so more!" she shouted with tears streaming down her face.
Caylee never cussed, so this was a shock to Paul. Not able to find a response as he stuttered she cut him off again.
"I don't wanna be here, get this off of me." she began sobbing. Reaching for her IV she tried ripping it out. Terrified Paul reached over to try to stop her only to be yelled at again.
"Don't touch me! You had no right Paul!"
"Miss Jones maybe we should just calm do-"
"I'm not gonna calm down. I don't want to be here, get these off of me."
"Cay, please stop." Paul pleaded.
"I wanted to die Paul! Wasn't it obvious? Get out!" she shouted.
"But Ca-"
"GET OUT! GET OUT PAUL!" she began screaming as she tried to stand up, knocking stuff over.
"Jasper! Son, get in here!"
In a flash, Alice and Jasper were in the room. Alice ran and grabbed Caylee gently, trying to soothe her and get her to sit back in bed. But as soon as Jasper entered the room, his whole world had stopped. His eyes zeroed in on the small and frantic girl as frozen heart felt as if it was beginning to beat again.
He could almost hear the major that still got to him some days chanting in his head the word for it. Mate.
Her blood smelled divine but the current state of her worried him too much to even think about it.
"Jasper do something!" Alice called out.
The little girl looked up at him and he could hear her heart skip a beat and her breathing halt for a second. Then the tears kept flowing from her eyes as he put all his energy into emitting calm throughout the room. Just enough for Carlisle to grab a syringe and inject her with a sedative.
"No, don'tletthemputmebacktosleep," she mumbled almost incoherently as she slumped against her tiny vampire relative.
Everyone was shocked. All except Carlisle who seemed to know something no one else did. The only time they had sedated her prior was when she was unconscious as far as the wolves in the room knew.
"You need to leave." Paul growled at him.
This caused Jasper to snarl back, "She's my mate, I'm not going anywhere mutt."
Shocked and confused, everyone except Alice looked around. Instead, she smiled and plopped down in a plastic chair beside the sleeping girl and pulled out a fashion magazine.
"Well boys, it seems we have a lot to discuss." her twinkly voice filled the room as everything went silent.
Yay! They finally met! Sort of lol. I'm so excited <3
