Chapter Eight.
(I) "What are you doing?" Jasper demanded angrily and a little surprised. Alice dragged him a little further and then stopped, keeping hold of his sleeve and face him,
"We need to talk." (I)
"No we don't," Jasper shook his head as he looked down at the girl who had hurt him so much a week ago. Pulling his arm out of her grip he turned to walked
"Whatever you think it's not true!" Alice cried out, rushing around so that she blocked his path, her hands pressing against his chest lightly, "Whatever you think I've done I assure you I didn't." He pushed her out of the way roughly, so roughly she slammed into the wall of the building they were in front of and she cried out in both surprise and pain. "My father didn't tell me to be friends with you."
"Like hell he didn't!" he glared at her as she moved away from the wall, rubbing her right arm. She was wearing a strapless dress and his heart gave a lurch as he saw the bloody scratches on her arm from the rough brick. He'd hurt her…he'd lashed out and hurt her…he…he was like his father. That realisation killed all the anger she'd brought out in him, replacing it with disgust, "Leave me alone, it doesn't mater anyway." He walked towards the school but once again she blocked his path, speaking almost too quickly for him to understand,
"It does matter because you think I did something that I would never dream of doing! My dad doesn't talk about his work at home and he'd never ask us to befriend someone because he was worried about them. And you should know that he worries about a lot of people. You don't have to feel like he's singling you out. He cares about everyone on the planet but he can only ever help a few and if he's chosen to help you then you should know that he won't stop until he succeeds in helping you and I can't let you slander his name by saying the things you did. And I wont let you call me a…call me a bitch without proper cause. I mean if I am being a bitch people should call me a bitch. But I was not being a bitch. I was just trying to make friends with the hot guy who I'd never really paid attention to before but decided that I should and-"
"Stop talking," he interrupted her loudly, "Please."
Alice took a long deep breath and stared up at him, tears building in her eyes,
"And I'm not evil," she finished much quieter and slower.
"If and this is a big if, if I believe you why did you stop to help me?" he asked with a frown, holding back the three raging emotions he felt, each as strong as the next. Disgust at himself for behaving just like the person he hated, anger at his father and her father and amusement. How could this strange little girl who could talk for a remarkably long time without breathing not amuse anyone?
"Because I wanted to."
"That's it?" he asked quietly.
"It was raining and you didn't even have a waterproof coat on! I couldn't just drive past when we had an empty seat in the car. That's just cruel! And I believe in karma, you know do a good thing; earn a good thing in return or something like that. Although admittedly I must have built up some bad karma somewhere to earn such a tongue lashing from you…" she ended in little more than a mutter.
"Your father didn't tell you to make friends with me? Out of pity or curiosity or whatever?" he asked slowly.
"No! He wouldn't do that," Alice told him stubbornly just as the school bell rang loudly. They were both now officially late, "Yeah he told me he's worried about you. He told me he wants to help but not once did he tell me to talk to you. I only found out he knew you, or rather that he'd treated you after you said all that. He calmed me down, talked to me…"
"Calmed you down?" Jasper asked, the information seeming to take forever to sink in. Could she be speaking the truth? Could the Doctor be a good guy? Could she have really been acting in innocent friendship only? Could he have severely got everything muddled up?
"What you said hurt," Alice admitted quietly.
"I-I'm…I'm sorry I hurt you," Jasper said quietly, "But I thought…"
"I know. You thought I was acting as my dads puppet to get the information out of you so that he and Charlie could help you get away," Alice said bluntly. His heart practically froze in his chest and he argued quickly,
"I don't need to get away from anything! I tried to tell them this at the ER. I'm just clumsy," he tried to sound like he believed what he was saying but she obviously saw right through him.
"If you don't want to tell me the truth that's fine as long as it's not because you still think I'm a spy," she told him.
"I…" he paused, his whirling mind coming to it's final conclusion, "I don't. I believe you and I'm sorry." And he did. And he was. He'd completely misjudged Alice Cullen. "I'm sorry I hurt your arm."
"S'Ok. I have Emmett for a brother, scraped arms and knees were common in our house when we were growing up. Still are actually," she hummed loudly, "But only with Emmett now. And sometimes Rosalie. Usually at the same time…Ew!" Her face scrunched up adorably, "I did not need that image."
"What image?" Jasper asked before he could stop himself.
"An image of one of the ways they could have gotten scrapes, or rather friction burns on their knees at the same time as each other," Alice shuddered and Jasper found himself chuckling quietly, "It's ok for you. They aren't your family."
"That must be weird. I mean…it's sort of like incest," he pointed out.
"Not really. We're adopted. We aren't related by blood or anything," Alice argued as if she had many times before which thinking about it she probably had. "So." That was all she said.
"So?" Jasper asked.
"So now that we've got that all sorted out do you want to be friends?"
"You still want to be my friend after I completely misjudged you and embarrassed you, and myself, in front the whole class?" Jasper asked, confused.
"Yeah."
"Really?"
"Really, really." She smiled, "You just need to learn not to judge a book by it's cover. Or a person. So? Friends?"
"Ok."
"Great!" Alice hugged him tightly, "And now we have to rush as we are incredibly late for first period."
"You're fault," Jasper muttered.
"Well…yes. But as the gentleman you'll take the blame."
"I will?"
"You will."

A/N I was going to write more to this before posting it up but so many people have asked for more that I felt guilty. See I'm going to my mums tomorrow and she doesn't have an internet connection so this will have to do for a little while. Hopefully only a week or so. And those of you who are worried they've patched things up too quickly just wait and see what I have in store…
