《The Banshee (Jasper Hale x OC)》Chapter 9
Advertisement
And I was right, Bella knew about the Cullens being vampires.
"Wait, when did you find out?" she asked me when she told me.
"Yesterday" I said and she sat down next to me on my bed. "Also, apparently I'm not crazy. I'm just not human"
"Not human?" she asked and I sighed.
"Apparently my mom had a lot of secrets. She wasn't human. She was an over 90 year old Banshee" I said.
"So the feelings and bite marks?" asked Bella carefully.
"Yeah, becoming a Banshee also means being immune to vampire venom. And when I am 18 years old, I'll stop aging when I scream" I said and laid down on my bed.
"How are you handling everything?" she asked.
"Strangely well, I think. I mean, it's nice to know I'm not going crazy. It all makes a lot more sense now" I said.
"I guess you're right" she said and laid down next to me.
"So? Does Edward know you're totally head over heels for him?" I teased her and her face became red. "You are so smitten!"
"Don't shout" she said and covered her face. "It's embarrassing"
"I think it's cute" I said and smiled.

The next morning, Edward was waiting for Bella to drive her to school.
"Hey! What about me?" I shouted. "I don't have my license, you jerk"
Edward smiled. "Good morning to you too, Emma"
"Maybe I can help you" said a familiar voice, I turned around and saw Jasper smiling at me.
"That would be highly appreciated" I said and he chuckled. "Don't mock my accent, Cowboy"
"I wouldn't dream of it, darling" he said and opened the door of his car.
"Yeah sure" I said and rolled my eyes.
When we arrived at school, everybody stared at Bella and Edward. And to make the people stare even more, Edward laid his arm around Bella.
"Well, they're official now I think" I said. "Where are the others?"
"You can't miss them" smiled Jasper and pointed at the flashy red car. Where Alice, Emmett and Rosalie were in. "We like to keep a low profile"
"You're not doing a good job" I said and he smiled.
"Says the girl with grey hair" he said and I hit him in his chest.

"Hey! That's my natural hair colour you dimwit" I said and he laughed.
"My apologies Ma'am" he said and grabbed my hand.
People were used to seeing us walk together, but Angela noticed that we were holding hands. She smiled at me and held her two thumbs up, making me roll my eyes.
~
"So, Bella is coming to us tomorrow" said Alice on the phone.
"Really? I think Esme and Carlisle will like her" I said.
"Of course they will. Just like we love you" said Alice and I laughed. "You should come too. Rosalie isn't happy with Bella, but she likes you"
"I don't know..." I said and she sighed.
"Emma Marshall, we all love you. You are more than welcome here. So, tomorrow morning, Jasper will pick you up and we can have a lot of fun, you can try on your prom dress" she said and I rolled my eyes. "Don't roll your eyes at me!"
"How does that work, looking in the future?" I asked her.
"I get flashes, images. But the future can change, so my visions can change as well" she said.
"Have you seen mine?" I asked her.
"It's not easy to see yours. But I have seen flashes, and some of them have come true. And no, I won't tell you what might happen" she said and I smiled.
"Okay, okay. I won't ask" I said and she laughed.
"See you tomorrow" she said.
"See you tomorrow, Alice" I said and hung up.
"Alice really loves you" I looked up and saw Jasper in my room.
"How... how did you get in here?" I asked and he sat down next to me on my bed.
"Your window. Sorry if I intrude" he said and I looked at him.
"How many times have you done that?" I asked.
"A few times. It's calming, watching you sleep" he said and then it clicked.
"You're the reason I've been sleeping so well lately" I said and he nodded.
"Sorry if I made you feel uneasy" he said and I smiled.
"You didn't. Thank you, for making me sleep so well" I said and he smiled back at me. "How is Rosalie?"
"Angry" he said. "But, she'll get over it eventually. So don't worry about it"

"If you say so..." I sighed and laid down on my bed.
Jasper laid down next to me and I looked into his golden eyes.
"Jasper, how come that sometimes your eyes are more golden?" I asked him.
"They're darker when I'm hungry" he said. "When they're golden we have fed recently"
"Your eyes have been more golden recently" I said.
"It's easier to control myself around you" he said and I felt his hand against mine. "But I don't want to take any risks with you. I want to make sure you feel safe"
We intertwined our hands and I smiled.
"I always feel safe around you" I whispered.
~
The next morning I woke up in Jasper's arms.
"Good morning" he said and I snuggled into his chest.
"It's too early" I whined and he laughed.
I was surprised with myself with how much I enjoyed Jasper's touch. I had gotten used to it and I liked it. But I noticed that he was attentive, he didn't touch my skin without a little warning and he's very careful.
"I'm afraid you'll have to get up, darling" he said and I sighed.
"Do we really have to?" I asked. "I'd much prefer staying in my pyjamas all day and just watch some movies with you"
"That does sound lovely" he said and he played with my hair.
At that moment my phone went off, it was Alice...
"Alice, it's still early" I complained.
"Why am I seeing you in your pyjamas today? I thought you said that you were coming" she said and I sighed.
"No fair, Alice" I said and Jasper laughed. "Fine, I'll get up. But if you even think about making me wear high heels, I'll leave. I'll come after lunch"
"Fine, deal. See you soon" she said and hung up.
"Her seeing the future really sucks sometimes" I sighed and slowly got up.
~
"Emma! How lovely to see you again" said Esme when we walked inside their home. "We were thinking of making Italian for Bella, do you think she'll like it?"
"Yeah, she likes Italian" I said and smiled.
"Emma!" it was Alice, she grabbed my hand and pulled me with her. "You have to see the dress I got you for prom"
"Really, Alice?" I said and she laughed.
We got inside her room and she showed me the dress. It was beautiful, the best part was that it came with a leather jacket, so that my arms were covered.
"You like it?" she asked and I nodded.
"Yeah, I like it" I said and she squealed.
"You have to try it on" she said and I sighed.
She turned around so I could get changed and when I was done her eyes were sparkling.
"You look adorable. Jasper won't be able to say anything when he sees you" she said and I blushed.
"What do you mean by that?" I asked and she smiled.
"You like him, don't you? Well, he likes you a lot" she said and my ears turned red.
"Alice..." I whined.
"It's true! You make him happy and he makes you happy. You two will be very cute together" she said.
"Will be?" I asked and she smiled, she put her finger on her lips.
After I got changed back, I went to Jasper his room.
"Hey cowboy" I said and he smiled.
"So, you survived Alice" he said and I chuckled.
"Barely" I said. "She's really going to make me go to the dance, isn't she?"
"I'm afraid so, darling" he said.
"Well that will be a disaster" I sighed.
"How so?" he asked.
"I can't dance" I admitted and he smiled.
He went to his CD-player and put on some slow music.
"Oh, you've got to be kidding me" I said and he laughed.
"May I have this dance?" he asked and held out his hand in front of me.
"Why the heck not" I said and he pulled me up.
One of his hands was around my waist and with the other he held my left hand. He guided me and I tried my best not to step on his toes.
"Don't worry, even if you step on my toes, you won't hurt me" he said and I laughed.
"I will only hurt my own pride when I do that" I said and he pulled me closer to him so that I couldn't look at my toes.
"Trust me" he said and I looked into his eyes.
We were dancing on the music and my eyes never left his.
"You two will be very cute together"
