The Willow Tree

Chapter 17: Knowing

It's been a month since Jasper told me about them being vampires. Everything has been amazing, it's so much better knowing! They explained to me why they left and everything and so many things make sense now! Anyways I got to school and walked right over to Jasper. I have no friends anymore so it's not like anyone misses me. When I got to him I kissed him on the cheek and grabbed his hand. Everyone was talking, Alice about fashion, Emmett about video games, and Edward about some poem. Jasper was just standing around waiting for me. We started talking about our English homework. The bell rang and we walked to our classes. Even the classes I didn't have with him he always walked me to. He is so sweet. It was lunch now, we all sit with Bella's friends mike, Angela, etc. now. Alice was talking about having a graduation party. Angela said she's never seen their house. 'Of course you haven't' I thought to myself. Edwards looked over at me and smiled a little. I smiled back. Then I realized what this meant. If Alice is throwing a graduation party that means we are all graduating soon! (Willow skipped a year so she's in the same grade as the Cullen's and Bella.) I got really excited. Jasper looked at me weirdly and moved his head in the direction of the door. I nodded and got up. "We are going to go get our stuff for class." I said then we walked into the hall. "Why did you get excited out of no where?" Jasper asked following me to my locker. "Because I realized we are graduating!" I said. Jasper looked at me like 'yeah so?' "Maybe you have graduated many times, but I haven't!" This is kind of a big deal for me!" I said excitedly. He nodded realizing that I am only 17. I got excited even more and jumped on him. He caught me and we just stared at each other for awhile. 'I could do this all day' I thought. He finally let me go and we walked to our next class right as the bell rang. -----after school------ we walked to my car together. The others where at their cars, I got into mine and he kissed me. "I've got to get home, I've got to cook dinner and I've got a lot of work to do." I said looking up at him. He nodded "I've got some work to do to. I'll come over later tonight though okay?" I nodded and kissed him again. Then I drove home. I cooked dinner for Charlie and me and Bella. Then I took some and went upstairs and started working on my homework. About half way into it Jasper showed up in my room. I turned around in my chair and looked at him. "School is hard." I said pouting. He chuckled and walked over. He saw that I was doing math and started helping me. After a while I got tired of working. "Ugh, why can't you just do it for me?" I asked jokingly. He looked at the work and started doing it. "You don't have to I was just joking!" I said but he was done before I even finished my sentence. "No it's okay. I want to spend more time with you anyways." He said, I smiled and got up and hugged him. We started making out and then I stopped. "I've got to get my pajamas on." I said. He smiled and let me go. I got pajamas and went down to the bathroom and changed. When I got back Jasper was laying on the bed. I went over and laid next to him. He started playing with my hair and I slowly drifted off to sleep.
