So I've basically hit a brick wall with my other story, Mended Scars. It also doesn't help that I have lost my flash drive that has all of my stories on it. I hope to find it soon. If not it will be a couple more days before i can get the next chapter up.
This is pure Edward/Jasper. I love the pairing and just started writing. I hope you like it! There will be future lemons. Unlike my other stories though, I am hoping to take this one a little slower.

I hurried up to my room and slammed the door shut. I flopped down on my bed and fell asleep. My life was officially over. There was no more respect for me anymore. We were the laughing stock of Forks High School now. I even had a couple of death threats. It's not my fault I don't love the same way as everybody else.
* * *
I had come out to my parents about a month ago and after the initial shock of the news they accepted me. They told me they were okay with it if I was happy. I told them I felt so much happier and freer now that they knew.
I came out to my close group of friends a couple of weeks ago, a Saturday. They all said they suspected that much. Alice practically lunged at my throat when I told her that I really shouldn't have to them. She said she knew this was coming. That chick has a creepy way of knowing things. Rose and Emmett both nodded their heads in acceptance, I think. Bella smiled when I told her that I was happy. Edward kinda just stared off into the distance. He does tend to zone out. I asked him later if he was okay with me being gay and he shocked the hell out of me. We were hanging at my house watching a movie and kicking around the idea of starting a band when he turned to me, cupped my face in his hands and kissed me. I almost jumped out of my skin.
At first, I pulled away. He still had my face in his hands and was looking at me with a happy smirk. I smiled at that and leaned in for another kiss. His tongue begged for entrance and who was I to deny him. My fingers found his bronze hair and he pushed me onto my back. His hands let go of my face and pressed down into the sofa on either side of my head for leverage.
I pulled him closer to me and we lost all recognition of where we were. We stayed on the couch making out for a good twenty minutes. Neither one of us tried to push the other any further. We weren't ready for that yet. The only thing that stopped our make out session was my mother's voice. "Um Jasper, oh, umm, Edward. I'll be in the kitchen," she mumbled as she walked towards the kitchen. Edward pushed himself up a little off of my chest and we smiled at each other. I chuckled once and his face lit up even more. He sat up and I reluctantly followed. I pulled my knees up to my chest against the armrest of the couch and he sat opposite me; minus the whole knees pulled up to chest thing.
"So, you're gay too?" I asked shyly. He smiled and chuckled lightly. Hopefully this would be easy.
"Um, no, I'm bisexual actually," he admitted. I thought about it and it made sense. He had been out on dates with a couple of girls from school. They seemed nice enough. To tell the truth I had always had a crush on Edward. He had permanently messy bronze sex hair. A face that models would die for. He looked like something from fucking GQ for crying out loud. His voice was smooth as silk. He was also pretty tall, 6' 2".
"That explains why you went out with those girls. Tanya, to be more specific," I led. I was always so curious to figure out what he saw in her. She was beautiful by any standards. I would give her that but, she was always very cold and distant. She also had a bit of a reputation of a slut. We all knew she had messed around with more than her fair share of guys.
"Yeah, well she is part of what pushes me more towards guys. She was too intense and I didn't very much appreciate her rep. I'm just glad you came out now," he said. I smiled and wanted to lunge across the couch and kiss him. I was nervous about how my friends and family would react. They were what really mattered to me; Not the jackasses at school.
"I'm glad too," I whispered.
"Um so, I guess I was wondering if you would be my boyfriend. We don't have to tell anybody. In fact the only people who know about me are my parents and sister. Oh my God Alice was unbearable the first couple of days she had conformation," he said cutting himself off. He did have a bad habit of vocal vomiting.
I unfolded my legs and stretched across the expanse of the couch to give him my answer. I kissed him softly on the lips and pulled away quickly. "Does that answer your' question?" I whispered in his ear. I saw his body shiver and inwardly chuckled. I couldn't believe the effect I had on him but, why was I surprised? He had the same effect on me.
"Thank you!" he practically shouted and grabbed me for another kiss. I pulled away quickly. He looked at me like I was crazy. I pointed towards the kitchen and mouthed mom. His face instantly showed that he understood. He took my hand and we both turned back to watch the movie; which by now was almost over.
When the ending credits started to roll we turned to each other. He had started to rub circles on my hand with the pad of his thumb. It was soothing and nice to be near him. It almost seemed as if he wasn't aware he was even doing it.
"I'm thinking since my mother saw us earlier we should go tell her. She had no idea you were gay," I suggested. I saw worry flash across his face but, it was gone just as quick as it and appeared. He smiled and stood up, taking me with him. He knew the house well. My group of friends practically lived here on weekends. Edward and Alice tried to get out of the house as much as possible on weekends. Their parents were still really young. They had both been adopted by Carlisle and Esme a couple years ago. Carlisle was only twenty-thee and Esme only three years older than him. To say the least, there were nights when they both crashed here. In fact, that happened more rather than not.
He led me to the kitchen where my mother was making dinner. I had forgotten that I was hungry at all until I smelt my favorite food, steak with her homemade grilled garlic potatoes. I was practically drooling by the time we made it all the way across the large kitchen to her place by the stove.
"Mom, why the special dinner?" I asked. I was almost as excited about the food as I was about Edward.
She smiled at me but, continued to chop the onion, potato, and garlic. "It's nothing special. I was planning on making you this anyway but, I think it is especially appropriate now," she said motioning at Edward and I's intertwined hands. He squeezed my hand a little bit and my smile grew even more.
"Yeah, um, this just happened," I conceded.
"I figured that," she said and turned to face us," Edward I wasn't aware you were, well, gay." I practically blushed. This was almost exactly the same conversation we had just gotten done having.
"Well, I'm not gay. I'm bisexual but, the basic idea is the same. I hope this doesn't offend you but, I would like to keep this between us. Nobody besides my family and Jasper knows," he said ending with a bit of embarrassment.
"Of course sweetie, I wouldn't dream of telling. That is your business not mine," she said reaching up and gently touched his shoulder in the way only a mother could. We both smiled. She was such a sweet women. I was so lucky to have her as a mother.
"Thank you," he said. I could tell he relaxed.
"So you two are together?" she asked. I could tell she was hoping we where. Ever since I came out she has been asking me about a boyfriend or a crush.
"Um, yeah, I guess so," I mumbled.
"That's great! So Edward, when did you come out?" she asked. Man, she was really excited about this.
"I told my family a couple of weeks ago. Actually I told them a couple of days before Jazz came out to us," he said. I was momentarily stunned. I couldn't believe that we had both come out so close to each other.
"That's amazing!" she exclaimed.
I had to get away from her now. We would be talking all night and we would not have any dinner if we did stay here. Dad would be home soon too. I was hoping mom would tell him while we were gone.
"Um, mom, we are going to go upstairs. There is this song I wanted to play for Edward. We have been kicking around the idea of a band," I stated. I looked at Edward quickly and he nodded. It was unanimous between the two of us. We wanted to be alone.
"Oh that's great but, do I have to tell you what I'm thinking?" she said. I knew exactly what she was saying. No sex.
"Mom, no you don't. We will be upstairs," I concluded I turned around and Edward followed. I heard my mother say okay. I walked to the stairs with Edward. We were out of sight of my mom and we both knew it. We flew up the stairs. My room was one of the first on the second floor. We did have one of the larger houses in town. Actually we didn't even live in town. My dad was a lawyer. He used to work in New York on huge cases. We had plenty of money and my parents both wanted to live in a small town. They both had family nearby so we built a house here and moved. He had his own firm here but, it didn't bring in as much as his past job. We had a lot in the bank so we enjoyed a pretty cushy lifestyle. My room was rather large and most teenagers and I liked it that way. There was plenty of room for a bed, a very nice stereo system with a decent sized music collection, a desk that I could draw at, and another desk that I used for school work. I also had a flat screen on the wall across from my bed.
We stepped into my room and attacked each other. Our lips crashed together and I stumbled back a couple of steps. Somehow we made it to the bed and collapsed together. His hands found the bottom of my vintage T and whipped it up over my head. My hands drifted to his button up shirt and started to undo each button. I quickly got frustrated and just ripped it open. I was lucky in the way that none of the buttons broke. I threw that to the floor. Our flesh made contact and I hissed. It was amazing. I was sixteen and not completely inexperienced but, this felt like nothing I've ever experienced. I was still a virgin and I knew Edward wasn't but, I hoped he couldn't see that. Our hands started to roam each other's chests. He had perfectly chiseled abs and every muscle seemed like it was made out of stone. I could tell he spent his Sundays at the gym without having him tell me every day. He was rather proud of that. He wasn't anywhere as muscular as Emmett but, he was well-toned. I was pretty scrawny. At least I think I am. I hated that about me. No matter how hard I worked I wasn't able to really pack any muscle.
I felt across his Pecs and slid down the middle of his abs. My open hand felt as much as it could. I felt a small trail of hair that disappeared into the top of his jeans. The want I felt was just to simply go further. I knew that now was not the time.
Our hands roamed and explored each other for a while longer. Our tongues danced around each others' mouths. By the time we pulled apart I felt that I knew every each of his chest and glorious mouth. Even though his muscles were hard and well defined, there was a softness to his skin.
"Wow," exhaled Edward. I had to agree. That had been one of, if not the most exhilarating experiences of my life. I tried to slow down my breathing. We both sat up still holding hands. I pulled him close to me for one more chaste kiss. We pulled apart and grabbed our discarded shirts off of the floor. We both pulled our shirts on. I grabbed the remote to the stereo system and turned it on. One of my favorite songs started to play. It was a modern heavy rock hit that we both agreed was one of the best out right now. The song that blasted out of the system was Champagne by Cavo. It had amazing bass and guitar and the lead singer, Casey Walker, had an amazing voice.
"So did you want to show me the song you came up with?" asked Edward. That had completely slipped my mind.
"Um, I don't know if I would be able to play it right right now," I admitted. My hands were shaking like crazy and it had a lot of little things that would be hard to hit right now.
He laughed at me and then nodded his head in understanding.
We talked for a few more minutes until we heard my dad come home and my mother yell up to us that dinner was ready. We exited my room hand in hand.
* * *
That had been the perfect day. Now I was in agony. Not because Edward and I had broken up but, because we had come out together. We had been together for almost a week and thought it was time to start enjoying it in public. We rode to school together in his precious silver Volvo. We held hands on our way to class and sat next to each other at lunch. We had already told our friends and they had all said they were extremely happy for us. Alice once again swore that we were perfect for each other. Rose and Emmett both said they were happy for us but, I did notice Emmett sitting a little further aware from the two of us than usual. Bella said anything that we were happy about made her happy. She was truly a sweet person.
We lived in a small town so a couple people outraged was to be expected. We had not thought that so many people would be so cruel. It wasn't even just the student body. The teachers looked at us like we were criminals. I even saw the principal glare at me as we walked by. I couldn't take it. During lunch I started to cry. Rosalie looked like she was ready to rip the balls off of any guy that looked at us funny. I was so grateful for her. Edward took my hand and brought it to his lips. I looked at him with thankful eyes. He nodded his head. I could see the tears fighting to fall from his eyes. Alice and Rosalie both agreed that we should skip the rest of the day. Edward asked me if I thought we should. We had the last lunch of the day and wouldn't be missing too many classes. In fact I would only be missing gym, which was no problem, English, which I rocked at, and Government, which I could pass with my eyes closed. I agreed that I should get out of here. He nodded his head in agreement and then leaned in for a quick kiss.
That is when it all began; the cussing, the yelling, the death threats. One kid hollered across the cafeteria, Mike Newton. "Fags, go get a room! Nobody wants your kind here!" When Mike opened his mouth so did everybody else. A couple people screamed fuck you's. One screamed you're a sin against God. I lost it. I jumped up from my table in hysterics. Edward followed me and soon I could tell that our whole gang was behind the two of us. I stopped at the door of the cafeteria and leaned against the frame for support. I felt so lightheaded that I was certain that I would pass out. Edward wrapped his arm around my waist. Bella came up and tried to hug my neck and Alice tried to too. I heard a yelp come from the room and turned my head to see Rose throw a punch at Mike. He jogged back a couple steps on impact and fell on his ass. Rosalie walked away mumbling. Everybody else sat down and shut up. Rosalie is not someone you piss off.
She stalked over to us and smiled at me. "Nobody talks about my guys like that, ever!" she hissed. She marched down the hallway to the rest room and disappeared inside. Emmett walked down the hall and stood outside the door waiting for his girl.
I felt Edward chuckle behind me and he grabbed my hand. We walked out the door and to his car. Everybody else went back to our table.
Once I was back in the car, I broke down. I cried out and Edward just held me. He rubbed my back gently and whispered calm down's and it's okay's in my ear. I started to shake and he moved over to the driver's seat. "Jasper, I'm calling my dad. You have to calm down. Please we are going to the hospital," he said quietly. I didn't protest I needed the sanity of a hospital. His dad was one of the best doctors around here, despite his age. He picked up his phone and dialed his father's number. I heard him talking but, nothing registered. When he hung up I heard him say something along the lines of, we are meeting my father at the hospital. I don't remember. I was a mess.
He drove faster than usual and we made it to the small hospital in ten minutes. We pulled into the parking lot and into a slot. His father was already at the entrance of the hospital waiting for us. When he saw us pull in he sprinted over to the car. As soon as Edward put the car in park and killed the engine, Carlisle was opening my door. He grabbed my wrist and checked my pulse. I could see the worry etched onto his beautiful face. He and Edward looked a lot alike in almost every way except the hair color.
Edward was by my side within seconds. He unbuckled my seat belt and helped me out of the car. By this time I was just in a haze. Nothing made any sense to me. They took me inside, took me to a room, Carlisle had already done all the paperwork, and hooked me up to an IV. I was sane enough to protest to the needle in my arm. Edward chuckled at that and Carlisle seemed to smile at it. Edward sat in a chair by my bedside. I was still on edge and shaking slightly. The only way I actually felt better was that I wasn't crying anymore.
"Jasper, I already called your parents. They should be here any minute," Carlisle informed me. I just nodded my head. He sighed and walked out of the room leaving me and Edward alone.
He climbed onto my bed and held me close. A chunk of hair had fallen onto my face and he swept it away. He leaned his head down and rested it on top of mine. It relaxed me immensely. I guess whatever was in the IV contained a sedative of some sort because I felt myself get really tired. I drifted off into a light sleep in Edward's protective arms.
I awake a couple hours later feeling the strain my body had been under. My eyes ached and burned. My throat hurt. I was also pretty weak all over. I noticed I still had a pair of arms wrapped around me so I turned my head and my own personal angel was still in bed with me. He had apparently fallen asleep. His face was so calm and peaceful. I really wish that I had been able to see this under better circumstances. I sighed a happy sigh and brushed a piece of hair off of his face.
"Jasper, you're awake," my mom whispered. She was sitting in a chair by the singular window. I nodded and she stood up and crossed the room. She stopped at my bedside and kissed my forehead. She looked at Edward and smiled.
"You two look happy together," she whispered as to not disturb my boyfriend. I really liked the sound of that, Boyfriend. We had been together for a week and yet we hadn't had a whole lot of time together. School was getting crazy and we both had our extracurriculars. I was in the jazz band playing electric bass and Edward was on the speech team. I say the only reason he won anything at meets was his voice and not what he was saying. He could say anything and I would melt.
"Yeah, we are. I hate how cruel people can be," I sobbed. She out her hand on my shoulder and smiled in encouragement.
"If it's meant to be, everything will work out. The people who matter accept it. That is all that really counts. And just so you know, I believe that you two are meant to be together," she whispered. I beamed at what she said.
"Where's dad?" I asked. I scanned the room and couldn't find him. It was after six so he should have been home.
"He had to work late. He said he wanted to be here more than anything but, the case he is working on is intense. To quote him, 'This case is a bitch'," she said laughing. I chuckled. My dad had such a way with words.
"Carlisle said that you can go home tonight if you've settled down," she stated, "Um, can you tell me what happened?" I turned my head from side to side. I couldn't talk about that just yet.
I heard footsteps enter the room and Carlisle appeared at my bedside. "Hi, are you feeling any better?" he asked softly. I felt Edward wiggle by me. It must be his father's voice that got him stirring.
"Yeah, I am just really tired," I said. He nodded his head and looked to his son. "You two need to stick together," he said. I nodded my head and turned to face said person. His eyes fluttered open a second later. He smiled when he saw that I was awake.
"Well, you look like shit," he laughed. I shoved him lightly. He laughed and I joined him. His arms that were still wrapped around me pulled me closer. He leaned in for a kiss and I returned it eagerly. Our lips moved together for what felt like forever. I heard some throats clearing and we both pulled apart.
"Thank you Edward," I whispered. His face showed the obvious confusion.
"For what?" he asked. I could tell that the whole room was now listening to us.
"For helping me. For taking me to the hospital. For being with me. For everything," I declared. His smile was spread so wide across his face and his eyes showed a lot of pride.
"You're welcome," he said. He leaned in and kissed me. I had to pull away so we wouldn't get carried away. Our family was here; well, his father and my mother.
"Jasper, how would you like to go home?" asked Carlisle. My eyes locked with Edward's and he nodded once.
"Um, yeah, that sounds great," I said enthusiastically. I wanted to be home in my own bed.
"Okay, I'll be right back with the discharge papers," said Carlisle. He walked out of the room. My mom came to the bedside. Edward and I both sat up.
"I know you probably don't want to hear this. In fact, I really don't want to say this. You two are really into each other. I saw how intense you guys got a couple of seconds ago. I also know that as teenagers all you really have on your mind at a time like that is sex. Please, I am not going to stop you because, that is useless. Just promise me you two will be safe and gentle with each other. Jasper, Edward, please be safe," she practically pleaded.
"Mom, we will. We might just be two teenage boys but, I would never think of being anything but, safe with Edward. Trust me, mother," I said. She seemed to relax and I felt Edward relax beside me too.
"Mrs. Whitlock, I will be nothing but, gentle and safe. Please we haven't done anything yet and are going to wait until the time is right. This is for the long haul," he declared. I felt my heart swell to such a size that I thought it was going to burst.
"Thank you, both of you. Edward you know I have always thought of you as a son. Please understand that when I say you are part of the family you are," my mom said. I smiled like a fool. Edward and I had been friends with each other forever and my mom never failed to remind any of my close group of friends that they were family and welcome over at anytime.
"I know, Thank you. You have no idea how much I appreciate being able to come over, my sister too," Edward said with a slightly disgusted tone. Carlisle walked back into the room in the middle of that sentence. Edward hadn't seemed to notice until after he had finished. My mom saw him enter and started to blush. I did too. Carlisle stopped at the foot of my bed when he heard the words that came from his adopted son's mouth.
"Sorry dad," mumbled Edward. He nodded once and gave us the rundown on what we needed to sign and for me to get some sleep. He also suggested that I maybe skip school tomorrow. He even said he would allow Edward to skip too.
We all agreed to that. My mother signed the release forms. We ended up leaving the hospital around seven thirty. I rode home with my mom and Edward drove his car home.
When I arrived home, I hurried up to my room and slammed the door shut. I flopped down on my bed and fell asleep. My life was officially over. There was no more respect for me anymore. We were the laughing stock of Forks High School now. I even had a couple of death threats. It's not my fault I don't love the same way as everybody else. This hurt so bad. With Edward gone for the moment, my heart hurt after the sickening day I had just had
