MY SOULMATE IS A VAMPIRE

18

Jasper seemed to be very angry with me after the incident where he saw me with Brilly the afternoon before. It's been two days since Jasper showed his nose in front of me, even on campus. As people started to think at our estrangement, I felt guilty myself.

So I intended to walk up to him on my way to campus today, but alas, the unfortunate event happened again. It was not Mark's fault, or I would have been finished off by his subordinates. A car drove very fast suddenly and slammed into my body as I ran from the zebra crossing. It knocked my little body back quite a distance, with blood starting to flow from my forehead.

It was a frantic feeling, seeing people swarming around frantically and trying to call an ambulance. After that long journey, no one visited me except Mary. The child cried hysterically when the hospital contacted her as the closest relative I had.

Once again, too, Jasper. Or, Elle. None of them came here to call me. Did I really change Elle's vision completely? Until she couldn't see me hurt at all. The atmosphere of my hospital room was very quiet before Mary slammed the door of the room with her cries that began to echo.

"Hey, you're in the hospital. You'll get reprimanded by the nurse," I said, shaking my head as I watched her continue to cry while checking all of my injuries.

"How did you get hit, Rosalie? Tell me, what kind of bastard would dare to run you over!!!" annoyed Mary as she cried.

I could only laugh when Mary said that; she was the only one I could rely on. "Never mind; it's just a small wound. I'm sure it will heal by itself," I said.

"Does Jasper know this?" she asked again.

I shook my head uncertainly, not knowing how to answer, as Mary began to pull out her cell phone and focus. I took the phone and shook my head at her. "I guess she's busy; it's okay. It would be better if she didn't know," I said.

Somehow, Mary took me at my word. She immediately put her cell phone away from her and went back to worrying about me. It's a good thing the sisters didn't call my father. Because if they had, I would have been hurt even worse than before.

Jasper, are you really leaving me? I thought to myself.

JASPER POV

"You're not going to see him?" asked Cassandra.

I wanted to, but somehow my legs wouldn't move from the sofa I was sitting on. Seeing the expressions of Cassandra and Ethan, who knew how my situation was lately, it made me hate having to look weak in front of them.

To be honest, after Ethan rushed to Dubai to meet Niel, he said that if I had to erase Rosalie's memory, her life as a human was still long, and I shouldn't interfere with her bright future. I had an argument with Ethan about this. Like, why do we have to obey his words again and again? Who is he that we have to do everything he says?

However, seeing Elle choose to run away from home to accept the fact that her vision is no longer always correct because of Rosalie. It struck me that everything she said was true too. The afternoon after, I saw her walking with Brilly the demon. I wasn't surprised or angry; Rosalie looked better at her human life.

I also realized, if for two days until this moment. My attitude towards her was unjustified; I didn't say hello to her, give her news, or do anything that a couple could do in general. Until now, when Cassandra got the news that Rosalie had been hit by a car, I still hadn't visited her either.

I expected her to be disappointed, but why? Why did Rosalie always tolerate all of my behavior? It was as if she understood how I was feeling. The confusion I feel every time I see her beautiful face is a feeling I don't want to let go of. Why, of all the vampires? Am I the only one who is troubled by something like this? Do I not deserve to be happy?

"Jasper, Rosalie still doesn't understand you. Do you just want to leave her?" Cassandra asked.

"I don't want to either. However, what about me and her being close? Won't it add to her misery after I erase her memories?" I asked Cassandra.

"She won't be miserable, Jasper. You'll be the only one keeping all those memories," Cassandra replied.

"And you let me be miserable with all those memories?" I quipped.

"Jasper, you know I didn't mean to--"

"I'm going to see her," I say as I grab my leather jacket and head out to my Lamborghini. However, right before the car took off, Elle appeared out of nowhere and slammed into the front body of my car. Afterward, she tapped on the glass window, telling me to get out.

"What's up?"

"Jasper, I saw Rosalie. Crying in front of you. While we were at home, we were visited by elderly people. Mark was with them," she said.

I glared. What an absurd prediction! So Au is really going to do it. "Elle, you'd better discuss this with Ethan and Cassandra. I want to see Rosalie," I said as I hit the gas and pulled out of my yard.

If the elders showed up later, it meant Mark had successfully provoked them. I could only hope that the elders wouldn't make any rash decisions. I didn't know what to do with Rosalie. I hope Elle's vision can be changed by Rosalie.

"Damn, how could the universe just bring us together without uniting us?" I muttered.

"How fun is this game they're playing? What the hell is wrong with my life?" I raged as I punched the handlebar repeatedly.

Imagine Rosalie crying in front of me, knowing what I was worried about all this time. It made me not want to see her today, but I missed her honey-sweet voice. I can't imagine how hurt Rosalie was when she finally understood the situation.

Right at the hospital parking lot, I saw Brilly clutching a bouquet of flowers and walking in while I was there. Coming in with a million wounds and bad news. At least, I hoped Rosalie would be a little happy to see me. Or would she be very disappointed and decide to kick me out?

Being in front of her hospital room door, I stood there like a statue. I heard Rosalie's distinctive laughter as she joked with Brilly and Mary. In the end, I was the one who had to make peace with my situation again, because happiness does not come before bitterness.

I opened the door to the room, making everyone inside turn to me. "Sorry, am I late?" I said.
