Chapter Thirteen.
Jasper got up ridiculously early on Saturday morning, hurrying to do the things he'd usually have spent all day long doing. He picked up all the empties scattered about the house and put them in the recycling bin. He emptied and re-filled the dishwasher, emptied and re-filled the washing machine, put the wet clothes from the washing machine into the tumble drier and made a list of things he needed to get from the supermarket later on. His usual Saturday squeezed into an hour and a bit.
Chores done he checked on his dad finding him still zonked out from the drinking the night before. He'd be pissed when he found Jasper gone when he woke up but for a sort of date with Alice that was a sacrifice he would willingly make. He'd chosen his nicest t-shirt; a short sleeved green one for once showing off his cast in all its chunky entirety. It was the only t-shirt he had that wasn't permanently stained or damaged in some other way. With this went that same old jeans he always wore and his faded black denim jacket that in places was almost grey.
The door bell buzzed pathetically, on it's way out of this world and he grabbed his wallet (the only money in it the weekly housekeeping money) and his keys as he rushed to answer it, still trying to be as quiet as possible. He tried to stop his jaw dropping at the sight of her. She looked…well amazing didn't cover it. Today she was simply…beautiful. Her hair was spiked out as ever but a thick hair band with a large red bow on it separated her fringe from the rest of her hair. Her dress had a tight bodice and flared madly at the waist giving it a fifties look. It was white but pattered with red dots of various sizes. On anyone else he suspected it would have been too much but on her it was just…beautiful. The cut of the dress also accented her teeny tiny waist and her pretty little brea-
"Hi," her sweet voice snapped his gaze up from her chest.
"Sorry," he blushed at having been caught staring.
"It's ok," she giggled and her suspected that she was secretly pleased. "So do you like my dress? It's the test run, never worn it out before."
"It's lovely," he breathed, "But won't you get cold?" The dress only had tiny little sleeves and her pale arms were bare to the cold air. She brought her hands round from behind her back and he noticed she was carrying a white cardigan. "Oh, ok. But that's still really thin…"
"I'll be fine," she smiled up at him, "Rushing round the shops always keeps me more than warm. Not that we'll be rushing too much. Just a little." She was moving from side to side in excitement and Jasper noticed that she was wearing black and red heels, really high black and red heels.
"You drive in those?" he asked with a frown.
"No," she laughed, shaking her head, "I like driving in bare feet."
"Ok," Jasper said slowly.
"I know it's weird," Alice blushed in embarrassment.
"No. Not weird," he shook his head. "Shall we?" he asked as he stepped out of his house, quietly shutting the front door behind him.
"Yes!" Alice cried happily, linking arms with him and dragging him to the pavement where her stunning yellow car was parked. Once again he was stunned, the car was just so…God how could a car turn him on? No wait, it wasn't the car, it was the sight of Alice waiting in the car for him, her big eyes blinking up at him expectantly… "Are you coming? Or do you want a few more minutes to drool over my car?" she asked with a giggle.
"Not just the car," he reassured her before he could stop himself.
"Oh," she blushed with pleasure as he blushed with embarrassment, "Thanks."
"Welcome," Jasper coughed awkwardly as he climbed into the passenger seat. He admired both the car and it's driver as they zoomed along the roads towards Port Angeles. Alice chose the music of course and he found himself pleasantly surprised at the CD she chose, one of his favourites. "You like the Scissor Sisters?"
"Duh," she laughed loudly, "They're great!"
"I think so too," he said and she beamed at him.
She parked the car in the multi-storey car park and everyone on their floor stared at them in awe as they climbed out, gracefully in her case, not so gracefully in his. Once again she slipped her arms through his and led the way to the Mall, a journey she obviously knew like the back of her own hand.
Jasper was surprised how much he genuinely enjoyed the experience that was shopping with Alice. She dragged him into all the vintage shops as well as the designer shops and within an hour was carrying four large bags for her and she was carrying one of her own. They stopped for lunch and Jasper ordered only a coffee. She wouldn't hear of that though and shared her salad with him, claiming it was far too big for her to eat on her own. He knew she was lying but…well mostly he didn't want to hurt her feeling by refusing. He wouldn't let her pay for his coffee though, that he was adamant over, using a tiny bit of the housekeeping money instead.
"Now for you," Alice said happily as they returned to the shopping, heading into a mens shop this time.
"Alice…" Jasper mumbled, he didn't have money to spend on clothes, certainly not the expensive ones from this shop.
"Shh, I'm not insisiting you buy something. I just want to see you in something fashionable and nice. I think you'll look dead sexy," she said reassuringly to him. Moving about quickly she filled the cloth basket and went with him into the changing room much to his embarrassment. She sat on the little seat with all her bags at her feet and waited as he reluctantly changed.
She'd chosen a white shirt that was slightly too big so it would easily go over his cast, a matching jacket and trousers of the softest and blackest material he'd ever felt. He couldn't tie the tie she'd chosen, one of a deep blue and he couldn't tie the laces of the shoes. Biting his lip he stepped out and her eyes went wide.
"Holy poo on toast," she breathed, "Have you seen yourself?" she asked as she stood, easily tying the tie in a perfect knot. The shoes didn't matter so much. He shook his head; he'd refused to look at himself as he changed. He wasn't built for fancy clothes like these. "Look in the mirror," she ordered, turning his to face the large mirror at the end of the cubicles.
"Alice…"
"Look." So he did and his own eyes widened. He…he didn't look like himself. He looked like a smart young man from a good family, standing next to the most beautiful girl in the world. And they looked…good together.
"Oh," he mumbled.
"Please, if you decide to come to the prom anyway…wear something like this," she breathed in his ear.
"I couldn't afford this…" he said softly.
"Don't care at this moment in time. You look like a God," she told him calmly. He turned his head to look at her, frowning. "You do. Don't deny it."
"I look…different," he admitted.
"Yes. Like…a…God," Alice said slowly.
"Can I get out of this now?" he asked softly.
"No," Alice shook her head, "I need to memorise every detail."
"Alice," he muttered in embarrassment.
"Take a picture love, it'll last longer," the cloakroom attendant advised. Alice turned to him and grinned, pulling out her mobile phone.
"Oh no! No! No! No!" Jasper shook his head, making to hide in the cubicle again. Alice grabbed his good wrist and held him still. "Alice…"
"Smile," she ordered. He had no choice but to obey as she snapped several pictures with her phone's camera. "There, now you can get changed and hand me out the clothes. I'll return them whilst your putting your own stuff back on."
He hurried to obey, listening to her as she clicked her way back into the store as he struggled to do up his jeans. That had been slightly humiliating and very…annoying. Oh he wished he had the money to buy a prom ticket and a suit like that so that he could take that gorgeous girl to the prom…wasn't reality a bitch?
When he stepped out of the cubicle she was re-arranging something in one of her many bags, the one that she was carrying in fact and smiled excitedly at him. They moved onto the next store and the next and Jasper found himself trying on numerous outfits just so that Alice could see him wearing them. He lost count of how much she bought and not just for herself, things her sister had asked her to pick up and a couple of DVD's Emmett had asked her to grab while she was in town.
He tried not to feel jealous at the way she so casually spent her money.
The drive home was a bit more cramped than the journey out thanks to all the bags wedged around them, they wouldn't all fit in the boot. They talked and when Alice asked him if he'd enjoyed himself he found himself asking honestly that, yes, he had thoroughly enjoyed his time with her.
"So…shall we hang out again together?" she asked hopefully.
"Would you like to go to the cinema?" he asked in answer to her question, "On a…on a…" Go on Jasper, he silently willed himself, seize the moment, "On a date? With me?"
"A date?" she asked softly.
"Yeah. If you want…that is," he mumbled.
"I'd love to!" she beamed across the car at him.
"Great," he said softly, "Um, do you think you could drop me off at the supermarket? I need to do the food shop?"
"Sure but…how will you get home?" Alice asked.
"I'll walk. I normally do," Jasper shrugged.
"With all the shopping bags?" Alice asked with a frown.
"Yeah," Jasper looked away, "It's not that bad. There's only me and my dad so there's not too much to carry." He failed to mention the fact that with the amount of money his dad wasted on drink they couldn't afford that much. His dad's army pension, earned from a medical discharge after suffering a mental breakdown at the death of his mother, didn't stretch that far each month. Jasper was seriously considering getting an after school/weekend job on top of doing all the housework.
"Ok," Alice said reluctantly. "Why don't you drive?"
"Never learnt how," Jasper answered truthfully.
"I could teach you," Alice offered.
"It's ok. I like walking," Jasper said softly.
"Oh, ok," Alice smiled at him. She pulled up by the entrance to the supermarket in the loading bay, annoying someone also heading for that spot. She didn't take any notice. "I really enjoyed our hanging out today."
"So did. And…um…we'll arrange the er…the date later," he mumbled.
"Yeah. I'll look forward to it," she smiled at him. He tumbled out of the car, pushing the bags back in before slamming the door shut with what he reflected afterwards was probably a little too much force. "See you Monday!"
"See you!" he replied and watched as she sped away in the stunning car. Then, sighing deeply he grabbed a trolley and headed inside the busy supermarket, pulling out his list as he began his way down the first aisle.

A/N Wow, wrote this in one go the night before I went to France. Sadly because of said trip to France this then had to wait almost a full week to be put up. Hope you guys think it was worth the wait.
