Man, he never had a chance [Jasper]

[Alice Cullen]

Alice as normal was just sitting around the house,, she had nothing else to do at the moment school was finished for the day again they’d been going over how to use trigonometry. Pretty basic stuff to be doing, but no one else had done it at a complex level. Which did annoy Alice ‘cause she had to pretend like she didn’t know what she was doing like the rest of the class had done. It frustrated her so much when she couldn’t carry on as her abilities let her and had to slow herself down allot so she could just act normal. She liked being able to be ahead of the class not because it meant she was better at something that other people were,, just because it meant that she got too move on a hell of allot faster. As repeating high school over and over did get a little annoying sometimes. She knew what she was doing with everything and didn’t like being slow at it. So being speedy at the subjects was the natural thing to do.

She paced the room,, back and fourth,, back and fourth and few times before letting herself fall onto the couch. Just needing to sit down for a while,, she needed sometime to herself to be able to go through her visions again,, getting a more clear picture of what was going to be happening in the next few weeks. She wasn’t in the best of the moods when she felt the need to check the vision but she hadn’t had any for a while,, and she needed too. It was a need for Alice it wasn’t something that she could just turn on and off. Though sometimes she wished she could,, now with the wolfs drifting closer and closer to the family. She hated not being able to see them. It was the only weakness in her visions that she knew off,, and they didn’t half get in the way allot of the time.

She let herself fall back into the white leather couch,, a couch that she and Esme had spent many days debating over as she hadn’t been sure it would look good in the house or whether it would just look out of place. But seemingly it looked perfect were it was,, Esme had been right and Alice had been completely wrong about it. She closed her eyes,, it was easier for her to concentrate that way. She flicked first through Emmett… nothing interesting,, animal kills,, hunting,, baseball. Well that was the same as what she had gotten last time. Rosalie,, clothes,, shopping,, hunting… boring. Jasper,, hurt –which was what she got allot from checking his future,, the fact he could feel emotions did hurt him allot of the time- hunting,, the usual again. Now as she let the thoughts,, the pictures and emotions settle though she’d only felt a few of them she wasn’t found of them. Always letting them settle into her system before presenting herself with the worse of the family. Edward and Bella,, they were the worst there was always something coming up with them.

Before she even thought Bella’s name,, a face… the feline features,, the cat like structure. The hair. It made Alice’s eyes fly wide. The fear,, the violence. Though she couldn’t see really what was going to happen. It was bad,, she knew that. A wimper like noise escaped from her lips. "Jazz" were the final words she wispered. She needed to tell someone,, it was only fair. She could keep this secret,, not that involved the whole family.

[Jasper Hale]

Jasper knew there was something wrong, he could just feel it. His power, perhaps, was growing stronger and he could feel every single emotion encircling him. Anger,Sorrow, Stress,Love, Longing, Hate, Happiness, and Fear. Fear was the last feeling to pop into his head and it was about the same time he thought about his love Alice. He felt that she was in a state of stress and fear. He might be wrong though his power had seemed a bit off lately. This may have been because of the circumstances he and his family was in. He looked at a newspaper flitting across the dirt road and he picked it up and noticed first the big bold and black letters. He read the article. It basically said that there were many unsolved murders in Seattle and they had no leads. By the off chance maybe this what Jasper had been receiving. This made no sense to him because his powers were not that powerful, yet. The emotions he had been feeling must be local..

He looked back up towards the house and a tiny whisper danced in his ears. He couldn't make out what was said but he recognized the voice instantly. He would know her voice out of a crowd of humans. It was the love of his life Alice. He wondered if maybe she would know what was going on in Seattle. He began to walk towards the mansion. He stopped at the front door, standing only 4 ft from it. He took a deep breath and opened the door and walking inside looking around cautiously. He was nervous because it felt like forever since he had last seen her. He walked into the main room and as he turned the corner he looked immediately to the white leather couch. He looked in a state of awe as his eyes laid gently upon a beautiful women. Alice laid there on the couch. he sensed her stress and it killed him that she was in pain. He loved it when Alice expressed her real feelings and emotions so he did not interfere with her emotions this time.

She seemed to not have noticed him standing there admiring her beauty. His eyes continued to gaze lovingly at her as if he had only first laid eyes on her now. Her body was perfect for him, besides the fact that he would kill her were she human and they attempted intimacy. She was the most beautiful little vampire he had ever rested his eyes on and he smiled softly. His eyes never left her "Alice? Whats the matter my love?" his voice broke the silence.

[Alice Cullen]

Alice was truly scared,, not only were things seriously wrong in Seattle but apparently Victoria was to make a return visit to Forks. This really couldn't be happening could it? he visions had to be wrong. She wished more than anything else in the world they were wrong. She didn't want her to becoming back. She couldn't stand it,, she couldn’t stand the thought of Victoria coming back,, endangering her family. Her Jasper,, that thought could have choked her up if she was human. IF anything was to happen to him 'cause of that vampire. She couldn't but what could she do now? she'd had a vision if she went to Edward. He over react,, wanting to take Bella completely away from Forks. She didn't want to tell Carlisle. She didn't know what to do.

Then, his voice. The voice she had been longing to hear in so long. Just Jasper's voice was enough to send a wave of clam rushing through her veins. He didn't need his abilities to be able to calm her down she just needed him,, there with her. Her eyes darted up towards her husband. His perfection,, everything about him was just gorgeous. She let a long and slow breath. Trying to calm herself fully. She didn't want to panic Jasper at all,, though that had probably already happened to him. She didn't want him to feel her stress and discomfort. That was the last thing she ever wanted him to feel. In a way she wished it was just him,, with no mood manipulation thing. She just wanted him to be happy.

"Jasper,, its terrible..." she replied to him,, she couldn't managed anymore words than that at the moment. Even them few words were enough to bring the dreaded image of Victoria back into her mind. DAMN! she hated her so much,, Victoria had already tried to tare the family apart before,, she'd being doing it for far to long now and this time well she could see that it wasn't going to be an easy next few months. She needed something,, she needed the vision to be wrong,, though deep down she knew it wouldn’t be wrong,, though the future could change this felt certain this felt permanent. She was felt like she could just break down at the moment,, though she wouldn't let Jasper see her do that if she did. That wasn't fair on him.

"Jasper... Victoria... Coming Back" she uttered a few more words hoping preying he understood now. She rocked forward on the seat,, and rocked back again. She couldn't stand,, it was the first time in... well basically in forever that Alice had felt real fear. Real fear that was gut wrenchingly horrible. "Jasper" she pleaded,, her eyes,, they looked so worried. Her hand reached out,, hoping he would come over to her. He was too far away for her liking she needed him to be close to her. It was an actual physical need of hers. She needed him to near her.

[Jasper Hale]

Jasper's eyes widened as she spoke of the dreaded Victoria's return and of her worries. He quickly sat down beside her and pulled her into his loving and protective embrace. He kissed her lightly on the forehead and he looked her straight in the eyes. He thought deeply about wht she had said. Victoria was enroute to Forks. He knew from the last time that she would not fall for any simple ploys and come alone. He knew she was not stupid. He had to think quick and get all the details from his soul mate."Alice my love. What else is it you have seen? Is she alone or with someone else? Please leave nothing out as to spare my mind of worry." He knew she would be truthful to him and would tell him everything he wanted to hear. They had that kind of love. Unconditional love that would never part them, not even death could keep him from her.

He began to consider it all but he only knew so very little about it he could not gather the big picture. Is there a connection or just a common coincidence? Alice would have to be 100% open with him as she has their entire life together. He would protect her if Victoria came with others or alone. He was worried about Alice her visions were very limited now that the wolf pack was so close to Bella and the family. he knew how she felt inside and even though she tried to control it. It slipped out and it caused him pain that she was in a state of sorrow. He had to help her it was his duty as her soul mate.. He loved her.

[Alice Cullen]

She knew as much as she didn't want to talk about her vision,, and as much as it wasn't allot to go on. She would have to talk about it some time,, tell someone and well Jasper was the logical person to talk to about it. He'd understand,, he had too didn't he? She let him pull her towards him. Now really wasn't the time to try and restrain him. There was no point,, she sighed before,, she pushed her face into the indentation on his shoulder. Alice inhaled his gorgeous scent. Before she started to play the vision back through her mind again. She didn't want to leave anything out. She needed someone to know. Someone who would be able to do the right thing.

She wrapped her slender,, delicate looking arms around Jasper. Before she inhaled once more. "Victoria,, she's coming back. I didn't see it all clearly,, just... Forks. Victoria,, and i felt like people were confused. I'm not sure about the last part though" she said in a clear and clam voice. Her panicky mood seemed to be dieing away. Like it was being shoved away,, and being replaced with calm. No doubts it was Jasper's doing. Else Alice would have been panicking again,, in no fit state to talk to anyone. But still thank good he had his mood manipulation,, else the family would have no doubt been in real trouble with someone or something by now. The amount of arguments he had managed to keep quiet thanks to his ability were amazing. "Jasper... she's really coming back" she said. As her arms automatically pulled tighter around Jasper.

She would have done anything for Jasper at that moment,, she knew what he must have been feeling,, 'cause well she was feeling it herself. Jeez,, it was so complicated. Victoria wouldn't be stupid enough to come back on her own would she? well of course she wouldn't though Alice only saw Victoria. That was it,, she need to look again look more carefully though deep down she knew this wasn't through fault of her own that she was missing the information. It just wasn't there to be found. "Jazz,, what're we going to do?" she said as an edge of panic reached back into her voice. She looked up at him,, well she looked up at his chin. Though her arms were locked around him,, like she was never going to let go again. She couldn't let anything happen to him ever!

[Jasper Hale]

He warmly accepted her into his embrace as he breathed in deeply, inhaling the scent of her hair. He could not describe it at the time but it was one of the many things he was absolutely crazy about. Her words escaped her lips and came off exactly how it was. She was afraid, afraid that whatever it was that she saw would take him away from her. She knew though that no matter what he would never leave her side."Victoria?" He remembered Victoria from the last time they met. Her fiery hair still blazed in his eyes as they burned with pure hate for Victoria. Jasper would kill her faster than she could come anywhere near Alice.

Jasper begun to think of the many things that this could bring up. If Edward was to find out this disturbing news about Victoria's return, he would over-react and do something drastic like run off somewhere with her and be alone and away from the aid of the rest of the family. Jasper wanted to take on this threat as a family. He did not know what it was about this information that bugged him. He looked his love in the eyes and spoke sweetly to her with his lullaby voice, "Alice...is she coming alone?" he already knew the answer, Victoria was no fool aand would not risk her revenge by taking on all the Cullens at the same time. She would have some company or she would try some crafty maneuvers to out-wit the cullens.

"Alice you must tell me everything and everyone you see! Don't leave out any other details...please Alice." his voice was pleading her one hundred percent honesty in this matter. He knew she would not lie to him. He held his gaze, looking her directly in the eyes, his hands softly caressing her back and his arms around her sides protectively holding her in place.

[Alice Cullen]

Yes, Victoria was back. Or she was planning on coming back,, but when Alice couldn't tell. She kept changing her mind all the time,, the more she tried to concentrate on the vision the more it just made her feel ill,, not that vampire's could get it ill. It just stressed her out. "Jasper,, I can't tell you anything else than what I’ve already told you about it. She's coming back,, she hasn't made up her mind yet... " she couldn't see anything else. If she tried she was only going to stress herself out more. Her tiny arms constricted around him even more,, she couldn't deny that she was scared. Anyone who wasn't scared or at least a tiny bit worried must be stupid.

Alice closed her eyes again,, she wanted to concentrate. She moved her arms from around Jasper,, and they moved towards her head. Her fingers massaged the side of her temples. She couldn't see anymore,, than what was Victoria,, her flaming red hair,, flailing out behind as she moved forward through Forks forest,, everything else was blurry. She couldn't see anything else. It made her feel so uneasy it wasn't fair on her,, well she didn't think so. The less she could see the more likely it was that she was just going to be letting her family -the Cullen’s- down she hated that thought. "Jazz,, i can only see her... really... if i knew... more... i'd tell... you" Alice's words were slow and heavy. She inhaled as quickly as she could. She needed to calm herself down as she near the point of hysterics at the moment.

She couldn't see any thing else than what she'd said. Her huge topaz eye looked up at Jasper,, she could here the pleading in his voice though she couldn't tell him anything else now. She'd said everything she could. "I... I... Can't see... anymore than what you already know..." she finally said. Her voice was flat,, she wished more than anything else that she could tell him more. She knew how much he'd be worrying,, though Alice's only concern was keeping Jasper alive she would never let anything harm him no matter what,, even if it meant her risking her life in the process. She loved Jasper more than life itself,, and she'd never let anything happen to hurt him.

She looked up at him,, she wrapped her slender arms around his neck. He really was perfect,, she was so happy she got to spend the rest of forever with him.

Song: So Cold
Artist: Breaking Benjamin
Lyrics: "Your so cold keep your hand in mine, wise men wonder while strong men die.Show me how it ends, Its alright, Show me how defenseless you really are, Satisfied an empty inside, Well thats alright, lets give this another try."

Jasper's eyes narrowed as he realized that she had only seen what she has already said. He knew she loved him more than anything else and she would never lie to him. He loved her so very much as well, maybe even more. She found him and brought him into this life and existence of tranquility. His arms tightened against her stone hard body. Vampires are cold, but when she embraced him he felt as though he was set ablaze by her very touch. Thats how much passion and love he had built up inside for her. "Alice my love, I know it has been hard for you to see your visions clearly as of late. Please forgive my pressing of your limits. I did not mean to cause you further stress." His hands crept up from her back up to her cheeks and he pulled her face into his. His stone cold lips pressed against hers and he felt a wave of heat run down his spine. He felt as though the sun was inside of his heart in that moment.

He pulled away from the kiss, not wanting to. His hands stayed at both sides of her face and he looked deep into her eyes."We have to alert the other of what you have seen Alice. If we choose to ignore this, severe consequences will befall our coven. Like we could keep this from Edward anyway my darling, I will tell him if that is your wish." Jasper was ready to take whatever action necessary to protect her and his family from any kind of threat that Victoria would bring. He knew better than to think that she would come alone and fight the Cullens head on all by herself. She would bring other vampires.

But the last time they encountered Victoria she was with James and Laurent and both of them were dead now. Then who? Did she have other allies in the shadows that Alice knew nothing of? Perhaps this is why she can not see them all clearly. She only saw Victoria for that matter. Nonetheless Jasper would stay on his toes and await any further information from Alice about Victoria's plans.

[Alice Cullen]

Jasper didn't even need to be asked to be forgiven. Alice wasn't one for holding grudges especially not with Jasper,, he could do no wrong as far as she could see. Jasper was her world,, not matter what he did... even if he accidently killed a human she wouldn't care. None of that mattered to her at all,, as long as she was with him she could survive. "Jasper... I'm sorry,, i wish i could see more its just... not possible at the moment" she said,, the fear leaking into her voice. It was bad enough for her that she couldn't see what was going to happen in the future,, but what made it worse was the whole family's futures could depend on her seeing Victoria and she couldn't,, she couldn't help at all 'cause Victoria was obviously blocking her out. Her perfectly smooth lips,, crushed on Jasper's. As a wave of lust and need for Jasper spread through her,, her tongue danced across the his bottom lip as it searched to make contact with Jasper’s... She wasn't someone who would normally be happy with kissing Jasper in the middle of the Cullen's living room but hell what did she care at the moment,, as far as she knew everyone could be dead in a few weeks.

Her arms snaked up around his neck,, as he pulled away she could feel the features in her face drop with disappointment. Why'd he have to pull away from her,, she wanted it to carry on she hated when things just... stop. Though she knew that had. Jasper was right as normal,, they had to tell Edward or Carlisle about what Alice had seen. "Your right,, Edward needs to know... though what about Bella... she needs to know as well,, but Edward would no doubt try and keep us all quiet about it..." she drifted away from her sentence. She didn't want to keep thing from Bella or anyone else for that matter but Edward would keep her quiet no doubt. He always did.

She wouldn't let Jasper tell Edward,, it was better it coming for Alice. As she'd been the one that saw the vision,, she needed to explain to Edward and try and keep him calm,, or calmer that what she was. "Jazz,, you know it would be better coming from me" she managed a weak smile,, as gazed up at Jasper from were she was sitting in his lap. "Thank you love" she whispered the words,, Jasper was always there for her when she needed,, and she really didn't deserve him. She really didn't. Though she would do anything for him,, she just hoped he'd do that same for her. Not that she doubted him. If she asked something of him she would no doubt get it.

[Jasper Hale]

He held her tight in his arms as she sat there, in his lap. His eyes were fixed on hers. Her voice was soothing, though he sensed the fear in it. He knew she was worried and he knew he had to do something to protect her. "Well, you are rght my love, you would be the best one to break the news to Edward, though as for informing Bella, that is something he should do. I know he only wants to protect her, but until your visions become more clear, and we know what it is we are dealing with, he must respect our judgment. We must also inform the others, especially Carlisle about Victoria's untimely return to Forks.["/b] He said calmly.

He placed a small kiss on her forehead as he smiled handsomely at her. He loved cheering her up. He hated when she was sad. He always tried to cheer her up, because she was so animated when she was happy. Always running around, doing this and doing that, she truly was the best thing in Jasper's life. Did he deserve to have her? He did not really think he was worthy of such a beautiful girl by his side. She was more than worthy of him though, he was grateful however, that she chose to spend her forever with him.
