Stuck for eternity (Jasper Hale)

chapter18

"We are moving where?" I asked confused. "Alaska!" Alice responded. "And why exactly? It's barely senior yea...oh wait. I suppose it has something to do with a certain human." I said finally figuring it out. "For the most part, yeah. By the way, he's really sorry. He just wants to apologize." Alice said. "What if I'm not sure if I want to forgive him yet?" I asked. "I'm not here to tell you what you should feel but you know he didn't mean it." she said. "But he said it... I'm sorry I'm pulling you into my problems." I said. "It's alright I'm glad to help but, talk to him." she said and left. 

I slowly made my way up the stairs with each step more eager to just go and hug him and kiss him, but, we have to talk. I walked to his door and stood there for a moment before knocking lightly on his door. I opened the door and looked around the room. He wasn't in there. I then, realizing my foolishness, made my way to my room. Where he was sitting soundly on an armchair. He was in deep thought, didn't even realize I came in. "Jasper?" I called for him. You could tell by my voice how nervous I was. "Daphne." He said turning to face me. His face usually reflecting happiness was now taken over by sadness and regret. "I'm sorry. I was an idiot. I still am, an idiot. You are the best person in this world, what I said was, reckless. I wasn't thinking. Please forgive me babe. I was angry at myself and I took that out on you, I swear that I didn't mean what I said." he said and took a pause to study my emotions. I let my guard down and let him feel what I feel. Because I wanted to be angry, I was hurt, but I couldn't be angry. I loved him too much. He was my life when I felt dead. He was my flashlight in a dark, never-ending tunnel. A spark of fire in the coldness that overtook my body. I couldn't take it anymore. I ran into his arms. It felt warm, like home, like I was supposed to be there. Because I was. All the anger, sadness, all bad feelings left my body as I melted into his arms. 

"I love you." he said. "I love you too." he said.

We packed our stuff, put it in our cars and drove to Alaska.

Edward didn't go with us. He didn't tell us where he went. We knew it was hard for him. Leaving Bella. It was hard for me too, to leave my friends to be precise, I was glad to be rid of Bella. I told my friends that I'm leaving and didn't know for how long. Paul took it the hardest but I told him that I'll come visit. 

Upon our return, a trail of red rose petals marked the way into the house. Alice and Rose had matching grins on their faces. I followed the marked path only to find Jasper standing in a rose circle fiddling with something in his pocket. In the background, a quiet violin tune was playing. I walked over to him. 

"Jasp what is all this?" I asked. "Vic from the moment I saw you three years ago, I knew you were the person who I was meant to spend my eternity with. I've never been good with words so I'll just jump straight to it." he said then knelt on one knee and took a red velvet box out of his pocket. "Lady Daphne Tilsbulry the third of Gardenia will you make me the happiest man in the universe and marry me?" he asked. "YES!" I said. He picked me up and kissed me. "Congratulations!" Everyone shouted. We spent the rest of the night celebrating and planning the wedding. Alice got so into it that we gave her the honor of being our official wedding planner. I don't think I had ever seen her that happy. I spent the rest of the evening in Jasper's arms, looking at my ring more often that I'd like to admit.
