A/N: Ok, let me preface this by saying…this is what happens when you can't sleep, and you decide to write. I get really goofy when I'm tired and it really came out in this. I know, I said there'd only be one chapter, but this was too goofy not to share. So with that being said…you are forewarned…true goofiness and maybe a bit of WTF is in this chapter. Enjoy…
Bella looked out the window and watched as Alice and Edward ran off into the woods. It was days like today that she was confused slightly about her lack of jealousy as she watched them go. She did have to admit that when the two of them ran off together, she did enjoy her alone time with Jasper. Although today he was nowhere to be found. Normally he would have come to find her as soon as the other two ran off, but not today. Maybe he was off doing something with Emmett and Rose. With a sigh, she opened her window and jumped to the ground below.
Not totally sure what she was going to do, she started walking towards the woods. Just inside the woods she decided that since she was alone she wanted to play with her gift. She looked around and sniffed the air. When she was satisfied that she was completely alone and no one would see her, she made a choice and changed. No longer did she stand on two feet, but stretched to the full height of the form on four paws. Shaking her body as she had seen Jake do numerous times, she darted off into the woods. Constantly sniffing the air, she made sure that she wasn't going to run across anyone or that they could surprise her thinking she was their prey.
Running away from the house, she made her way closer to Charlie's. She missed him and would go check on him from time to time just to ease her pain. Looking at the house now, she sensed that he wasn't alone and was glad to find that he had company. Just then she felt someone behind her and her hackles rose. Mentally laughing at how she took on the natural actions of the form she chose, she also chided herself at being caught off guard.
With a growl, she took off further into the woods. If anything was going to happen, she didn't want to be anywhere that could put Charlie in any kind of danger. She could sense whoever it was following her. Not sure how they were doing it, but whoever was following her was keeping their scent hidden so she had no idea who it was.
Reaching a clearing, she ran to the middle and turned around to wait for her pursuer. And gasped.
Jasper walked out of the trees and stopped to stare at her. "How are you doing that?"
Cocking her head to the side in question, she watched him. How could he know it was her? Maybe he thought she was one of the wolf pack and was trying to figure out how he couldn't smell her or feel her emotions. She really loved her shield.
"I can't smell you and you are an emotional blank." He took a few steps closer. "Is it part of your form?"
Bella had no idea what he was asking, but she was starting to worry that the longer she was around him the more likely he was to figure out her gift. Deciding to mess with him and then leave, she had another idea for a prank to be pulled, so she leaned back on her haunches just a bit and then launched at him. Taking him by surprise she knocked him to the ground and stood on him, all four paws holding him down. Seeing the confused and shocked look on his face made her chuckle and to top it all off, she licked his face from his chin up the side of his cheek.
Jasper laughed at her and grabbed her as she tried to launch off of him. "Don't run from me, Bella."
She froze. He knew. How did he know? Alice swore she wouldn't tell anyone as she had too much fun messing with the family. Looking back down at him she huffed. "How?"
Laughing, Jasper ran his fingers through the white fur on her muzzle. "I was coming to find you to go hunt when I saw you go out your window. Naturally I followed. As soon as I got into the woods, I decided to surprise you so I went up into the trees hoping it would keep my scent from you. I wanted to surprise you, but you beat me to it. I almost fell out of the tree when I saw you go from you to this beautiful giant white wolf."
Bella sighed. "Well, damn. I was hoping to keep this a secret longer."
"Can I ask you something?"
"Anything, Jazz."
"Last week, when Alice rode away from us on a wolf, was that you?"
She ducked her head. "Umm, yeah. We thought it would be funny."
"So is the wolf the only form you can use? " Jasper leaned up to look in her eyes. "The gold of our eyes fits with this form, looks almost natural."
Moving back so she wasn't standing on Jasper, she laughed at him. "If I tell you this is payback for you knocking me out of the tree last week will that answer your question?"
Sitting up, he looked relieved. "So I wasn't imagining things? I really did knock a mountain lion out of the tree?"
"Yes. I apparently didn't think clearly when I decided to go find you guys. I also didn't take into account that you would try to hunt me." Enjoying the form, she lay down and placed her head in his lap. "The mountain lion was not my wisest choice."
"I have to agree with you there, love." Jasper chuckled as he ran his fingers through her fur. "Any other forms you have taken that I should keep an eye out for?"
Bella laughed and the rumble could be felt in his legs. "Well, you remember the funny story about Emmett's hunt last week?"
"You didn't."
"Oh yes I did. He deserved it for putting strawberry syrup in my shampoo bottle." She snorted. "It took me a full day with Alice's help to get that crap out of my hair."
Jasper fell back to stare at the sky as he laughed. "God I wish I would have been there to see the look on his face."
Bella stood up so she could look down on him. "I have never seen a grown man, a vampire who is virtually indestructible, run from anything. I have to admit, it was the funniest thing I have ever seen. I doubt he will look at a black bear the same way ever again. He will forever be waiting for his food to talk to him."
"You have to do that to him again, but I want to be there to see his reaction."
"We will see." Bella looked back in the direction they had come. Leaning down, she whispered in his ear. "Jake is headed our way."
Jasper sat up. "Should we leave?"
With a shrug she sat back on her haunches. "Or we could pull a prank on him. He is always being such a pest about Edward changing me, I think he deserves to be messed with."
"I guess he does kind of have it coming doesn't he?" Jasper chuckled. "What did you have in mind?"
"Well, he will be confused to see me like this as I'm not part of the pack and I still have my scent blocked. He won't be able to recognize that it's me so that really leaves a lot of options open to us."
Jasper looked around the clearing. "Well, how do you feel about attacking me?"
"Should be easy." She said as she playfully snapped at him.
Chuckling, Jasper stood up. "So I see. Can you follow my lead?"
Bella snorted. "I think, love, we have already learned that I tend to enjoy where you lead me."
"Alright, wolf girl, curb your lust unless that is the attacking you are planning on doing." He rolled his eyes as he felt her lust increase. "I think that will seriously gross out Jacob."
"I agree, but I think I will start with the normal attack method. If you decide to let me catch you then be prepared."
"Thanks for the warning." Jasper tilted his head. "He's almost here, I would suggest you pick your starting position just inside the trees and remember not to talk. The pack can't do that."
Bella chuffed at him before moving to the other side of the clearing. Looking back at him before heading into the trees she sent him a wave of lust.
Jasper sighed, knowing what was going to be happening after this little prank was over. He didn't have much time to think before he heard Jacob nearing the clearing. Putting on an air of frustration and acting like he was keeping an eye out for something, Jasper turned to Jacob as he entered the clearing.
Jacob paused at finding Jasper just standing there. Normally he tried to stay as far away from the Cullens as possible after what they did to Bella. He knew he couldn't hurt them, but that didn't stop him from dreaming about it.
"Jacob, I am actually glad to see you." Jasper said, barely containing the smile as Jacob turned his head to the side in question as he growled low. "I am having a slight problem…"
Just then Bella came charging out of the trees straight for Jasper.
Jacob immediately went on guard at the sight of the new wolf.
Jasper started backing away, trying to keep Bella off of him. "Jacob, please call your wolf off me."
Jacob looked between Jasper and Bella, sniffing the air trying to figure out who this white wolf could be. With a huff he shook his head at Jasper.
"What? You won't help me? She won't listen to me and has been chasing me all afternoon." Jasper dodged as Bella lunged at him. "You have to get her to stop."
Bella made a big circle to come back at Jasper for another attack, doing this brought her right past Jacob. She even brushed up against him as she darted by him and he naturally snapped at her. Sending a growl over her shoulder at him, she focused back on Jasper. This prank was by far one of the most entertaining ideas ever.
Jasper was sensing confusion and interest coming off of Jacob and was trying to decide if he should let Bella catch him the next time she lunged. He sighed as his instincts made the decision for him and he dodged her at the last possible moment.
Jacob watched all of this and was more confused the longer the white wolf tried to attack Jasper. He couldn't hear her or smell her. All he could tell was there was a damn huge wolf trying to take out a Cullen and he felt hard pressed to care.
Bella turned around after she missed Jasper the last time and stopped to stare at Jacob. He was watching her intently and she wanted him to react more. So she darted passed Jasper and bumped him with her shoulder, sending him to the ground. As he landed, she darted towards Jacob jumping over him at the last second. As she went over him, she snapped her jaws behind his head causing him to flatten against the ground to get away from her. As she landed, she let out a soft chuff of laughter and charged Jasper again just as he was getting back to his feet.
Jasper watched Bella tease Jacob and he had to admit, she was doing a good job of hiding who she was and keeping him confused as to what was going on. Suddenly he was hit by another wave of lust just as Bella charged him. Just for show he started to back pedal away from her, but he fully intended on letting her get him this time.
"No, you stay away from me…" Jasper growled at her. "Jacob, I mean it, call off your wolf."
Jacob growled before getting up off the ground and darting into the trees. Seconds later he stepped out in a pair of cutoff shorts. "She's not mine, leech."
Still backing away from her, Jasper glared at Jacob. "I find that hard to believe. Your pack is the only one I know of in this area so I repeat; call her off before she gets hurt."
"If she was part of my pack I would have heard her thoughts, but as I said, she's not with me." Jacob laughed. "You know I have no problem with her attacking you."
"Thanks, mutt, but from what I am feeling from her, you may have the wrong kind of attack in mind."
Just then as if to prove his point, Bella pounced on him and knocked him down to the ground. Putting her paws on his shoulders, she sent him another wave of lust before darting off again.
"Oh well…umm…that's got to be the most disgusting thing I have ever felt." Jacob groaned as he felt the lust that Jasper projected out to him. "Well, nothing tops seeing Bella fawn all over her blood sucker, but this comes in a close second."
Keeping an eye on Bella as she darted around the clearing, Jasper shot another glare at Jacob. "You should try being the one attacked. I'm never gonna get this smell off me and Alice won't touch me for a week thanks to this."
Jacob started laughing. "That is so not my problem. I don't know how I can help…"
Bella ran back at Jasper and hit him with another wave of lust which he projected out to Jacob. Jasper's groan cut Jacob off mid-sentence.
"Oh now that's disgusting…quit doing that." Jacob looked like he was going to be visibly sick as he watched as the wolf moved away from Jasper. "Ok, you are so gonna owe me for this."
Jasper was barely able to drag his attention away from Bella as she stalked back over to him; he had to admit that she was really setting the mood for when they got back to the house. He heard Jacob's words followed closely by a growl as Bella was pushed away from him. Looking up, he saw that Jacob had wolfed out again and had helped him, which was shocking to say the least. He knew this wouldn't go on much longer but he wasn't sure how Bella was going to end it.
Jacob took up a stance next to Jasper and growled low at the other wolf. He still couldn't figure out who she was, but he wasn't going to let one of his kind disgrace the rest of them by going after a leech like that.
Bella was done playing with Jacob. Her teasing of Jasper had changed her desire from the prank into time with her mates. Picking herself up off the ground she almost laughed when she saw Jacob guarding Jasper from her. She sent her amusement to Jasper and he subtly shook his head where Jacob couldn't see it. Apparently he was telling her that he was done with this too. So she decided to end this.
Jacob sunk into a crouch as the wolf charged him; he could sense her intentions and knew that she wanted Jasper. Gross. He had to admit she was much faster than he was and she ran right into him, pushing him away from Jasper and snapping at him in the process. Her teeth never made contact but she got damn close.
Bella circled back to charge Jacob again but this time he jumped out of the way. He backed away from her, putting him closer to the side of the clearing he had come from. Sensing her opportunity, she quickly charged him and bit his shoulder as she knocked him back into a tree.
Jacob shook his head, trying to clear it from the impact with the tree. Looking up he saw fear flash across Jasper's face just as the wolf lunged for him catching his right shoulder in her jaw.
"Oh shit…Jacob…" Jasper got out just before Bella got to him. He saw what she was aiming for so threw his arm out wide, ready to reach around and hold on to her where Jacob couldn't see. As Bella's jaws closed on his shoulder, he secured his hand in her fur and held on. As she started dragging him out of the clearing, he felt worry and confusion coursing through Jacob. With his other hand, he reached out towards Jacob one last time as he was pulled into the woods.
Bella stopped just far enough into the woods to let go of Jasper. "So, how did we do?"
"You have no idea how disgusted he was by your actions. I would imagine we will be getting a visit from him today or at the very least a call." Jasper chuckled as he kept track of Jacob through his emotions. "He's starting to get up; we might want to get out of here."
"Hop on, cowboy, I'll give you a lift back home."
"Thought you'd never offer." Jasper said as he leapt onto her back.
Bella raced back to the house, but as before, stopped just before the trees ended. After Jasper jumped off, she let go of the wolf form and was once again back in her own skin. "Was that everything you hoped it would be?"
"And more." He moved forward to pull her into his arms. "Edward and Alice should be back soon, should we wait for them to have some late afternoon fun?"
Bella smiled and darted just out of his reach but grabbed his hand. Dragging him into the house, they moved into the living room just as they heard Jacob run up outside. Bella started laughing knowing why he was here. "Cowboy, you wanna hide or what?"
"You think we can convince him he imagined all of that?" Jasper asked as he sat down on the couch.
"I bet I know how we can work towards that. Cowboy, I think you need to lose your shirt for this to work." Bella grabbed his shirt and tore it from him. Splaying her hands on his chest, she couldn't help the chill that went down her spine any time she touched one of her mates.
Jasper leaned forward to nuzzle her neck. "Shouldn't you be losing something too, sweetheart?"
Bella smiled and he placed his hands on her hips, sliding them up her to her ribs taking her shirt with him.
Just then, Jacob came busting through the front door looking like the hounds from hell were chasing him. He stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the two of them on the couch. "What?"
Bella looked up from what Jasper had been doing to her, thinking back she might have sent him a bit too much lust earlier. "Jacob what the hell are you doing here?"
"Bella?" Jacob just stood there, looking between them utterly confused. "What are you doing with Jasper?"
"What does it look like I'm doing?" She huffed, truly annoyed. "You didn't answer my question."
"But I thought you were with Edward?"
Sighing, she placed her hands on Jasper's to keep him still. It was hard to think when he was messing with her like that. "I am with Edward. Over the past few months we sort of found that we were much happier when the four of us decided to be together. But that is really not your concern. Again, why are you here, Jake?"
Looking at Jasper, his confusion was clearly written on his face. "I thought…umm…well…I thought Jasper was in trouble."
Bella laughed. "You thought what?"
"I thought he was being attacked by a wolf."
"What on earth made you think that?" Jasper asked as he inched his hands up just a bit more on Bella's sides.
"Umm I watched you get dragged out of that clearing no more than five minutes ago."
"Jake, that's impossible." Bella sighed and fought the urge to arch her back. "Jasper has been here with me."
"No, I swear I saw him. Come on Jasper, tell her. You even asked for my help to get the wolf off of you."
Bella turned to look at Jasper with a glint in her eye. "Are you cheating on us with a wolf, cowboy?"
He had the good grace to look affronted. "And risk being denied by both you and Alice? I don't think there is anything out there worth that risk. Nope, no mutt sex for me."
"Jasper, you were there, tell her. Bella, he was being attacked by a white wolf, but she wasn't a part of our pack so I couldn't hear her mind. She even attacked me for protecting Jasper from her." Jacob huffed out as he rubbed his shoulder where she had bit him.
Jasper laughed as he leaned forward to kiss Bella on the neck. "Now that's a good one. I doubt there will ever be a reason good enough to get me to ask you for help. Although this white wolf of yours does sound interesting. Would have loved to have seen it take you down, mutt."
"What's going on in here?" Edward asked as he pulled Alice into the living room behind him. "Bella?"
Bella looked at Edward over her shoulder, not moving from Jasper's lap. "Jacob is here to warn us that Jasper is in danger and needs to be protected from some giant white wolf."
Alice couldn't help the laughter that bubbled out. "Really? Jacob do you seriously expect us to believe that Jasper, who used to control armies of newborns, would be in any kind of danger from a wolf?"
Jacob growled at her. "Shut it, pixie. I know what I saw. I came here as soon as I recovered as I knew I needed to tell someone that Jasper was being dragged around and who knows what else by that wolf."
"He doesn't look like he is any danger to me." Edward snarked as he watched Jasper expertly unhook her bra under her shirt. "It looks more like Bella is the one in danger."
"Edward you're just jealous." Bella giggled as Jasper hit a ticklish spot. "Jake, you really should rest more. I think Sam is working you too hard. How else do you explain your crazy theory that Jasper was going to be raped by some she wolf."
"Raped?" Alice gasped. "Seriously?"
"That's what Jasper told me." Jacob shrugged. "He told me she had been chasing after him all afternoon and he needed my help to call her off."
Edward laughed. "Do you hear how ridiculous that sounds?"
"I…I know what I saw."
Jasper kissed up the side of Bella's neck before pausing. "Jacob, I promise if I see this so called giant she wolf you will be the first to know. But I personally would much rather get back to what you so rudely interrupted."
Jacob watched as Jasper pulled Bella into a deep kiss. Looking to Edward, he pointed at the couple. "Are you going to just stand there and let him kiss your wife?"
Edward sighed as he pulled Alice closer to Bella and Jasper. "No, Jacob, I plan on dragging them upstairs so we can all have some fun."
"I…oh fine, you guys are so messed up." Jacob huffed. "I know what I saw though."
Jasper pulled back to watch him leave. "Imagine, me being chased by a wolf and going to Jacob for help."
Bella laughed. "How absurd."
Alice moved up behind Bella and leaned down to her ear, speaking only so Bella and Jasper could hear, "You, my dear, have some explaining to do later."
Bella leaned back and kissed Alice softly on the lips. "Gladly, but first I think I am up for Edward's idea."
"And what is that, love." Edward asked as he wrapped an arm around Alice.
"Heading upstairs for some fun." Bella responded before dragging Jasper up the stairs.
Alice watched them go, shaking her head. "We have created a monster in that one."
"Just be glad that this should go away after her newborn years." Edward started following the other two upstairs.
"Edward, she isn't like other newborns, I think this is just how Bella will always be." Alice laughed to herself. "I feel that we missed something really interesting while we were gone."
"I think we came back just in time for that something interesting." Edward countered. "And to see Jacob looking so out of sorts and his story. Where in the world did he come up with that crazy idea?"
"I don't know, Edward, but I think we need to pick up the pace. Sounds like they are starting without us."
Edward heard the sounds from upstairs. Without a thought he picked Alice up and ran upstairs, Jacob and his crazy wolf no longer anywhere in his thoughts.
