Jasper POV
Forks….
From beautiful Calgary to Fork, WA.
Let's say I am not the most happy about this move. After 8 years with my *gulp* Nana her death is devastating. Now I'm off to the USA to live with my aunt. I had to leave almost everything behind. Thankful for one of my teachers who's taking care of the storage space that I have all my things in. And all the stuff from the house.
I stepped off the plane and walked out into baggage claim, looking around for my aunt. I've never met my Aunt Renee or her daughter. I scanned the crowd for them. I came across two women who looked the same. Both were tall, slim, with wavy brown hair. The older one was holding a sign with my name on it. I walked over to them, and set my things down.
"Jasper?" The older one asked. I nodded a little shy.
"I'm your aunt Renee, and this is Bella" She said gesturing between herself and her daughter.
I nodded again and tried to smile as I picked my things up. They led me to a car, and I packed all my shit into the trunk. Sliding into the back my aunt tried to get me to talk.
"So how was your flight honey?"
"It was tiring" I replied in a small voice, my shyness coming out.
"It's really nice to have you Jasper. I'm sorry about your grandmother." She replied sincere.
I nodded and slipped my Ipod on. I'm not ready to talk about her.
The car ride was silent and when we arrived my aunt showed me my room. I shut the door and unpacked. I put my posters on my wall and laid in my unfamiliar bed. I went to sleep dreading tomorrow, my first day at Forks High.
I woke early in the morning. Grabbing my shower things I hunted out the bathroom upstairs, and climbed into the shower. After my shower I got dressed and brushed my teeth.
Treging down the stairs I smelled coffee brewing. Walking into the kitchen I went hunting for a cup. My aunt pointed to a new black metal thermy cup on the counter. I smiled and filed it, adding two sugars and 1 cream. I sat at the island and inhaled the smell. Sighing and letting a smile break across my lips before taking a sip. I love that smell in the morning. I turned to thank her for the cup but she was all smiles at me.
"Jasper, my neighbor is selling his bike. I know that you used to drive one back in Calgary, and I'm willing to foot the bill if you'd like it"
I beamed a smile at her, "Thanks Aunt Renee" I breathed
She smiled back reaching under the sink and pulling out a helmet and tossed it at me.
"It's in the drive, it's insured under my name, and I'll pay your insurance."
I smiled even brighter and stood so fast my stool almost fell over. I kissed her on her cheek and rushed out the door with my coffee and helmet.
Catching sight of the bike, I stopped dead in my tracks. There sitting in front of me was my dream bike.
MY HARLEY!!!
"HOLY FUCK!" I bellowed running to it. I ran my hand over the supple brown leather of the seat, the red gas tank, and the handle bars. Looking up I saw my Aunt standing there smiling.
"I've dreamed of this bike!!!!" I yelled to her smiling a shit eating grin.
"I know, your Nana told me." She replied back and my smile falters. She noticed and closed the distance between us, placing her hand on my shoulder.
"Jasper this was her dying wish that you have this bike with her insurance money…and you get her inheritance. Her estate and everything had to be sold, but all the money is in an account for you when you graduate."
I nodded turning away from her to hide the tears and slid onto my bike. I kick started it and smiled at the purr. That sound always makes me smile.
I pulled into the parking lot, and everyone's eyes were on me. I pulled onto the curb and shut my baby down. Stepping off and setting my kick stand, I admired her again before I turned and headed into the office to get my schedule and map. I studied the map as I headed off to my first class.
"Hello!" Someone yelled from behind me. I turned to see a short pimply faced boy with a smile.
"Hello" I replied
"I'm Eric, and you must be Jazz."
"Yea, I'm Jasper. No one calls me Jazz."
"Oh ok." He replied apologetically. "What class do you have first?"
"Umm… Spanish"
"Oh that's in the English building, just past the cafeteria"
"Thanks" I replied as he walked off to his class.
The morning was uneventful. Walking into the cafeteria at lunch Bella grabbed my arm and dragged me to sit with her and her friends.
"Bella what are you doing?" I asked
"You're sitting with us. You need to be in the group so or my ranking will drop out."
I was a loner in Calgary. I had friends sure but I was quiet and shy. Not too many people actually talked to me. I knew this was going to be different. Sitting down beside Bella and one of her friends, I let my eyes fall to my hands.
"ALICE!" Bella yelled from beside me making me jump. I looked up at her as she pulled this short pixy-like looking girl down beside her. She had short black hair that spiked out all over and from the looks of it a good fashion sense. The girl smiled at me and batted her eyes.
"Hi, I'm Alice" She said sticking her hand out. Nervously I slid my hand into her with mumbled "Jasper". She smiled at me and shook my hand. The two started talking about some party last weekend. I just played with the food on my tray as more people started to come and sit. No one had introduced themselves and I was too shy to do it.
I noticed a head duck down to my level, and I caught a pair of gorgeous green eyes. Eyes that took my breath away. My gaze being caught the eyes sat up and I followed. He smiled and my breath caught as he extended his hand and said
"You must be Jasper, Bella's cousin. I'm Edward"
