The Unknown- Jasper Hale

26

"I'll go make some food for you girls," Esme smiles, while excusing herself to the kitchen.

"I'm so sorry G," Jaspers voice says behind me, "Will you ever forgive me?" I asks, with a slight beg in his eyes.

"You left me," I whisper, my eyes starting to well up.

"I know and that's the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life. I thought it would protect you- I wanted you to have a normal human life," He adds, showing as much emotion that a vampire can.

"I didn't want a normal life Jas," I whisper, "I needed you so bad," I continue. It is now just both of us out in the open, though I know it is most likely all the vampires listening.

"I know I'm so sorry G, I won't ever let it happen again I promise," He says holding out his pinky, which I hesitantly take. 

"I've been so alone Jas," I whisper as he takes me into his embrace.

"And I will never forgive myself," He whispers back.

We both slowly walk up the stairs to the open windowed house, to the smell of some form of cooking which Esme is doing. "Bella, Georgie the foods ready!" She calls. 

Walking into the kitchen I see the makings of some form of stew, with all the Cullen's huddled around, as if they've never seen anyone eat before. I stare down at my plate trying to convince myself that it's okay to eat and that I won't throw it up this time. While Bella starts eating it straight away, much to Esme's satisfaction.

I slowly bring the spoon up to my mouth and swallow, managing to be on track with me record. Bella turns to me and smiles.

"Do you not like it Georgie?" Esme asks looking saddened by the idea, making my eyes go wide trying to think of way to explain it.

"Georgie hasn't eaten properly in a while," Edward speaks up, clearly reading my mind, before I but in.

"Sorry," I say looking and the now worried Esme, "It really is nice," I smile while looking at the food.

"Have you been eating Georgie?" Rosaline asks me, although this time Bella speaks first.

"She has been I've been making sure of it," Bella says, while finishing her food. 

Jasper grabs the bowl, and my hand leading me out the room to his. A room which I hadn't seen in a very long time. Although it looked the same it did seven months ago, as if nothing had changed. Everything was untouched.

Before I can even walk in properly Bella comes up behind, "Charlie want's me home," She says lowly, "Will you be alright?" To which I nod, and she smiles at me briefly, heading back down the stairs.

Jasper watches me as I sit down on the bed. His gaze made me feel slightly uncomfortable, so I decide to question what happened with Bella and Edward.

"What happened with Edward?" I ask, gazing into his golden eyes and his back at my blue.

"Alice saw Bella cliff diving, but never saw her come out because of the wolves," Jasper started, sitting next to me on the bed, "Edward heard from Rosaline, that she had died so he went to the Volturi to kill himself. Bella stopped him just in time," He continues.

"Did the Volturi meet Bella?" I ask, scared for the other human.

"Yes they say she has to change to one of us," He says quietly, grabbing the bowl of food, "Please eat he begs." 

Clutching the spoon in my hand, and slowly bring it up to my mouth I swallow. Two in one day that's a new record. However Jasper's face is still filled with worry, as I try to continue holding the spoon. 

"Let me," He whispers, slowly bring the food up to my mouth and I swallow, as Bella had done to me for months. The vampire keeps doing the action until the bowl is completely empty.  

"Where did you go?" I whisper to him despite that fact the whole house could still hear. 

"Alaska, but Edward went elsewhere," He cups my face, "I missed you so much, and I am so sorry Georgie," I lean in to kiss him. This kiss was slow, and delicate. He treated me as if I could break at any point. The kiss got deeper and deeper, until I pulled away not wanting to get too into it at this time.

"It's okay G," Jasper whispers as I hug his chest, "You can tell me what you want when you're ready," He continues, kissing my head as I lean further back into his embrace. 

Perhaps it was due to endless nightmares for the past seven months, or maybe it was comfort but I slept until the night, despite not being up for long before. A door slamming woke me up along with Bella and Edwards voice's.

"What's happening?" I murmur to Jasper, still trying to listen to everything happening downstairs.

"We're needed down there," He says, carrying me off the bed, "Come on," He holds my hand pulling me down the stairs to where the voices are.

"Ahh good your here," Bella says letting us both past her place on the stairs, as we go to the back of the room. I can imagine that Jasper is still trying to keep his distance from the girl, his arm tightly round my waist, while I learn my head into his chest and looking up at Bella to hear what she was to say.

"You all know what I want," Her voice says with confidence, "And I know how much I'm asking for. The only way I can think of it to be fair is to just vote." This puts the room in silence, everyone thinking of their answers.

"You don't what you're talking about," Edward mutters loud enough for even me to hear.

"Shut up." Bella turns around glaring at her boyfriend with pure annoyance, causing a small smile to appear on everyone's face- well except Rosaline's.

"Alice?" Bella asks with a low tone at the short haired girl.

"I already consider you my sister," She squeaks, running up to the human and giving her a hug. Bella smiles, probably already starting to keep a count in her mind, "Yes," Alice confirms, moving to the side of Bella who looks at us all once again.

"Thank you," Bella says, glancing back at Alice.

"I vote yes," Jasper quickly says releasing his arm from my waist, and taking my hand instead, " It would be nice not wanting to kill you all the time." Jasper continues with true honesty. To which Bella nods her head seriously to.

"I'm sorry," Rosaline starts, "I'm really sorry to both of you in how I have acted, and I'm really grateful that you were brave enough to go and save my brother. But this isn't a life I would have chosen myself, and I wish there would have been someone to vote no for me. So no." She ends gravely. I've not heard Rosaline open up that much since I heard her story on how she turned back in the summer.

"I vote hell, yeah!" Emmett cheers, swinging Bella around, "And we can pick a fight with these Volturi some other way."

"I already consider you a part of the family," Esme buts in calmly, "Yes."

Edward who is looking more and more upset in the corner looks at Carlisle. "Why are you doing this to me?" He asks emotionally to his adoptive father, "You know what this means."

"You've chosen to not live without out her, which leaves me no choice. I won't loose my son." Carlisle states. Bella sighs in relief- she's got what she wanted.

"Come on," Edward says, taking her back her house to where she is meant to be- in her house, grounded.
