Soul searching - Jasper Whitlock

Chapter 10

Bella...

Alice said we’d be fine, he wouldn’t figure it out. How wrong she was, he noticed there was something different about us after the first time he see’s us. We all jumped in to the BMW to go to school. I decided to drive as we was running a bit late after having a family meeting about how to go about the whole Edward situation.

“Alice, you said we’d be ok, that he wouldn’t figure it out” I hissed at her. Still pissed about the whole situation. My nephew knows there something similar to me and his ‘Auntie Isabella’ “you wouldn’t move if you all knew” Alice told us. I slammed the brakes down. I had Alice out of the car and pinned against a tree. “You knew. You f*****g knew this would happen” I hissed in her face. “It’s not fair you all have your mates. For god sake Bella if it wasn’t for me you wouldn’t be with Jasper now. How would you feel if it was the other way and it was Edward we met in that cafe. If you had to sit there watching me get my hopes up that it would be him who walks through the door but turned out to be someone else for a month? That’s what I had to do. I’ve had to see you all happy for over 50 f*****g years. I deserve to be happy Bella and you know it” Alice shouted at me.

“He’s my nephew Alice and your letting him figure out what we are, he’s going to freak out. What if he tells Charlie? We’d be f****d. God damn it Alice. Yes you deserve to be happy, and I know you saw how I got my hopes up every time I heard the bell go in that cafe, No I wouldn’t like it just sat there, watching your best friend get her hopes up that her mate would turn up while my mate was no were in sight, but this Alice lying to me, your best f*****g friend. I thought we tell each other everything” I hissed at her, I let go of her, she started pacing the forest floor everyone else was behind us watching it all.

“I had to do it Bella; I knew you wouldn’t want him to find out like this. He’s more to me than he is to y-“ was all she got before Iz was out and she was on the forest floor.

Iz...

“What were you going to say Alice, he’s what more to you then he is me? He’s my brother’s grandson. I’d watch what you say if I was you, Bella might not want to rip you limb from limb, but me I wouldn’t think twice about it” She booted me in my chest and landed into a crouch. Alice started charging towards me to tackle me, I grabbed her around her throat and pinned her to the floor. “You forget Alice I was the one to train you. I know every move your going to do. Get the f**k up and sort yourself up, we have to get to school” I hissed at her. I walked over to the other and let Bella come back.

Jasper...

After Bella and Alice’s little confrontation we all got back in the car. I can’t believe Alice knew he would find out like this. Don’t get me wrong she deserves to be happy and she did bring me and Bella together, but she can’t keep throwing it in our faces to get what she wants.

We made it to school within seconds with Bella driving. Bella driving and her been pissed off doesn’t go well together. She skidded into the car park, I got a whiff of burning tyres. Lucky enough we made it to school in time. “You need to sort this out Alice, if he finds out who I am to him, the shits going to hit the fan with me and you. I’m not ready for him to find out yet.” Bella hissed at her. Alice just nodded her head knowing there was no good in trying to fight her against it. We all went our separate ways. “Can you believe her?” Emmett asked me on about Alice. “I can’t say I agree with it, but like she said if it wasn’t for her me and Bella wouldn’t be together now, but I’ll be having words with Alice, if she thinks she can keep throwing that in our faces all the time, she has another thing coming” I told him. “I’ve never seen Bella and Alice fight like that” Rose told me. “That’s nothing can you remember the time when they was fighting because Alice was looking into our future, well before you all got back they was going crazy. I could tell Alice was scared but she’s obviously learnt not to show it when Iz is out” I told her. We all went in to class.

We was halfway through the first lesson when I heard Bella’s voice in my head, I nearly jumped out my seat. Can you f*****g believe her, she’s sat in class next to Edward, not even sorting it out, she’s talking to him like nothing’s going on. “What the hell Jasper” Emmett hissed at me, obviously noticed me near enough jumping out of my seat. “Bella she’s in m head” I told him. Just leave her to it, we will all have to talk when we get home, and when the hell did you start projecting thoughts?. I thought back to her. I just thought I’d try it now, to talk to you. I love you. She projected in to my head. I love you to darlin.

Classes was fairly easy, I was ready to kill the history teacher, after she was slating the south off, when the civil war was going off. Dinner came, me, Rose and Emmett all walked into the dinner hall to meet the others, I looked at our table, Bella, Alice and Edward was sat at there. Alice was smug, Bella was pissed and confused and Edward was suspicious. I got my ‘food’ and walked over to Bella.

“Hear anything darlin?” I asked Bella just loud enough for her to hear. “Nope nothing. I can’t hear his thoughts, its confusing me I can ear everyone’s but his” she told me loud enough for us vampires to hear. “So Edward, do you want to come over tonight, try and beat Emmett?” Alice asked him. “Not tonight Alice, were all going out if you remember” Bella told her. “Family meeting. Don’t try and get out of it” I hissed at her just loud enough for us vampires. “Oh yeah, I forgot” Alice told us, so Edward could hear her. “So Bella, is your name short for something, or is Bella your birth name?” Edward asked her, all of us went stiff. “No it’s just Bella” she told him. He just nodded his head while having a good look at her. “So Edward what did you do last night?” Emmett asked him, trying to change the conversation. “Had pizza with my dad, he talked about my Auntie Isabella, my granddads sister. He told me there wasn’t a body found so I did some research about it. In fact Bella you look a lot like her” Edward told us. Bella went white if that was even possible for us. “That’s strange” Bella told him. Lucky enough the bell rang for the next lesson, but Bella and Alice are in Edwards’s next class.

Bella...

When the bell rang for the class I had never been so relieved, that was until I realised I’m in Edwards next lesson. I kissed Jasper and said bye to Emmett and Rose. Me, Alice and Edward started walking to our next class. “I’ll have to fetch a picture of my Auntie Isabella tomorrow for you to see how much you look like her” Edward told me. “I’m sure I don’t look that much like her” I told him. “You could pass as her twin” he told me, but added “or you could be her” under his breath thinking I couldn’t hear him. Lucky enough class started.

After school was over I went straight to the car and jumped into the driver’s seat, to wait for the others.

After everyone was in the car I sped out of the car park. “What do you think Carlisle will say?” Alice asked me. “He won’t be as pissed as I am” I told her.

We made it home within minutes, we all sat in the living room to wait till Carlisle got home from work so we could have a family meeting.
