The pain was unbearable, searing hot and unrecognizable.
Never in my life had I felt something like this, never in my life had anyone left me.
Actually broken me down to the point where I had nothing left to say.
I remember bits and pieces, phrases of what was said. His face was so serious. He didn’t want me anymore….
He didn’t love me anymore in that way and there was nothing I could do about it.
I remember feeling like I couldn’t breathe; feeling like my world was crashing and burning down all around me.
I layed down on the ground, closed my eyes and drifted into nothingness….
3 months later:
Bella pov-
I absentmindedly twirled my truck key around and around my finger. My thoughts were wandering again.
It was Saturday so I really didn’t know what I wanted to do. Jake had invited me to come over just like every other day, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to go.
Finally drifting out from my unhealthy daydreaming, I stopped twirling my key and started the truck. I was most likely going to regret what I was about to do, but so be it. I wanted a peak. Just one little glance, it would take 60 seconds.
In the limited amount of time that I had gotten to know Edward and his family, I had come to call their home my home.
I missed the perfect white mansion and all its glory. The doors would be locked.
The floors on the inside would be dusty. It was going to be as if no one had lived there for years….
When I pulled onto the long drive, my breath caught in my throat and the faintest glint of hope surfaced.
I was being ridiculous. I really hoped that this “quick glance” wouldn’t come back to haunt me.
I’d pay big time....
As soon as the house came into view my heart was beating rapidly.
I brought my truck to a stop and took 20 seconds of breathing in through my nose and out through my mouth.
And then I stepped out….The ground seemed to move a little bit underneath my feet.
Nausea almost set in, but I refused to let it. I was going to try my best to make this a good experience.
One I could enjoy for the moment and then let it go away with the wind.
My legs shaking now, I slowly and carefully walked up the porch steps.
Okay, I was making slow progress, but at least I was moving.
I pressed my face up to a window and squeaked.
As soon as my skin hit the glass, a light switched on.
My Jaw fell wide open, and without second thought, I ran to the door, put my hand on the knob and turned it…
The door swung open….
“H-hello?” And there he was….
It wasn’t my angel, but it was an angel nonetheless.
My long lost best friends love. “Bella?” I almost cried as he spoke my name in his beautiful angel’s voice.
“J-jasper? Wh-wh-well, uhm what are you doing here!?”
He pointed to his ear. “I heard you coming, I should have known you would have shown up sooner or later. It’s my turn.”
My eyebrows scrunched together as I felt the panic start to rise from my chest.
As soon as it started to show, it was chased back down into its hole.
Jasper was calming me…and I felt so peaceful. “Thank you. What do you mean?”
He rolled his eyes. “It’s my turn to keep an eye on you. I am surprised they even sent me, when the last time I saw you, I tried to kill you. It’s beyond me. It doesn’t make sense that Edward even agreed to it.”
Ed-ed….
I couldn’t even bring myself to think his name again.
It would be too painful. I grabbed my chest and inhaled deeply.
Another wave of calm came flying my way.
“You really can’t keep it together can you. You’ve been falling apart since we’ve left.”
I held in a stream of unwanted tears.
“How do you know!? I’m not as weak as you think I am! I don’t understand why he had to leave me all because of what happened….I would have been fine! You would have come to your senses!!!!”
He chuckled surprisingly. “Oh yeah? And how do you know that. I am a horrible creature. I don’t think about others lives, or how it might feel to them or what it might do. All I care about is the tast of blood and the undeniably refreshing quench. My satisfaction."
I scowled at him.
“YOU ARE NOT HORRIBLE! Who told you that!?”
He walked from over near the TV until he was only a foot away from me.
Without realizing my feet were moving I took a step back.
He took the step I had taken away, closer to me and further back I went.
“What are you doing?”
I shook my hands in front of him. “N-nothing. I’m doing no-THING! AHH!...”
He grabbed my wrists in his hands and pushed me back the way I had come until I slammed into the door.
I cringed a little at the pain, but he soothed it away.
“Are you sure I’m not horrible?....Are you sure your not scared of me? Alice left us, left me because of what happened Bella! She can’t stand to look at me, when she said she had confidence in me! When she said she loved me! I am horrible…I am if I’m the reason she’s gone….”
If Jasper could cry, he would have been.
My body noticeably relaxed and I looked up into his eyes.
“I am so sorry…oh Jasper…I really am? Where did she go?”
He shook his head. “No one knows…she must have done everything possible to cover up her scent….oh god I miss her…It hurts to bad…Sometimes I just cant put on this charade pretending that I’m fine. Because I’m really not…I’m not…”
He still held me against the wall with his head bowed.
“Jasper…I’m so sorry. I will stay here if you need me…”
Too quick for me to notice, but his eyes had already returned to mine, he had already lifted his head.
I jumped a little, reading the straight forward anger amongst the beautiful liquid amber.
“I don’t need you! Why would I need a pathetic little human girl!? What could you possibly do for me, but cause trouble?”
I flinched away from his words and he let me free.
My heart dropped into my stomach and the nausea came climbing up my esophagus.
He immediately took it away and I slid onto the floor.
“Bella….I honestly am sorry…I am…I didn’t mean that.”
Suddenly his arms were around me and I was breathing in the most heavenly scent.
He smelled wonderful.
I was intoxicated for the first couple seconds it assaulted my lungs.
I shuddered and I felt him smile against my neck.
“Did you miss us that much?”
I wrapped my arms around him, refusing to let go, even though I could easily be made too.
“Yes. All of you. I’m surprised how much I….never mind.”
He pulled back to look at me and I frowned.
“No, please continue.”
This was awkward.
This was Jasper…
So now, he could sense that I was nervous…anxious for him to hug me again.
No but of course he didn’t know why I was those things…probably not anyway.
“Well…how much I…uhm..missed you...”
I made sure to say you the quietist.
Not that it mattered, vampire hearing and all.
He sighed. “That’s very surprising to me. Considering our farewell.”
I cringed at the word farewell.
“I never wanted one at all. Everything was fine…Jasper it was fine.”
He wrapped his arms around me again and I sighed, with relief this time.
“Bella, I’m going to make a deal with you.”
I looked him in the eye again.
“W-what kind of deal?”
He took one of my curls and began twirling it around his finger.
“I’m going to let you stay here with me whenever you want as long as I’ve hunted.
Ill be the one to take this post permanently. I’ll offer you my friendship for what I’ve done.”
I thought for a second. A sudden unfamiliar rush of happiness flooded my veins, he smiled.
“Do you actually want to be real friends, or are you doing it out of sympathy and regret?”
For some reason, something devilish flashed in his eyes.
A chill ran up my spine.
“I actually do want to be your friend , yes. I’m not going to give you sympathy, cause we are both going to get over our ex mates. And regret? No, for some reason, as this progresses, I have a feeling I wont regret a thing.”
