Chapter 16
Couple of hours into the night…
"I cannot believe Dr. and Mrs. Cullen agreed to this!" Jasper exclaimed as he helped me settle down in our new room. It was a big and spacious room with lots of closet space and a great view of the forest surrounding our new house.
"Well, actually, they needed a little convincing from my part" Rosalie grinned as she sat gracefully at the edge of our bed. She had actually convinced Esme and Carlisle to let us have this room because she said that it was important to let the guests, which were us, to have anything they wanted. But her real reason was solely to annoy Edward when he got home with Emmett from hunting, since this was his room or had been, at least.
"Esme? Carlisle? We're home!" I heard a male voice call from the first floor and the door slam shut.
"That's Edward, right there" Rosalie grinned as she walked out of the room and down the stairs
I walked hand-in-hand with Jasper to where the rest of the family had gotten together to welcome Edward and Emmett. But we stood a bit farther away, enough for them not to notice us.
"Edward, Emmett, we have some news to tell you" Esme said walking forward and taking Emmett's and Edward's hands in hers.
"Ok, but, um…why are ALL my things out in the garage? Am I being kicked out?" Edward asked alarmed. I couldn't help but giggle and then everybody broke out laughing except him and Emmett.
"No, honey, you are not being kicked out. We were just making room for our new family members" Esme explained
"New family members?" Emmett asked cocking an eyebrow and holding Rosalie close by the waist unconsciously. She leaned her head on his shoulder
"Yes, we would like to Alice and Jasper, your new siblings" Carlisle said with a smile while he extended out a hand for us
Jasper seemed to be petrified; I recognized this as when he suspected danger near by or bad feelings towards us. He held me close by the waist and walked a bit ahead of me.
"Hello" he nodded while speaking in a very serious tone
"Hi, I'm Alice" I smiled from behind him
Edward and Emmett looked at us for a while until Emmett made the first move. He extended his hand towards Jasper
"I'm Emmett, how do you do?" he said with a smile
I felt Jasper relax and they shook hands. He smiled towards me and said "Hello"
I couldn't contain my happiness anymore and so I threw my arms around his neck and hugged him close. He seemed to freeze but then he hugged me back
"Hello, Emmett"
Edward shook hands with Jasper and I hugged him too. Esme couldn't even keep the smile off her face.
"Again, why did you guys take my room?" Edward asked for the first time after 5 hours of storytelling from all of our sides.
"Your room has the best view"
He looked at me in disbelief and something between anger and awe.
"What?" I asked
"I cannot believe you would do that" he laughed
Three days later…
Today was both, my and Jasper's first hunt with our family
"You guys look pretty thirsty" Carlisle said as he joined the circle that we had formed near the backyard double doors. We all had dark, black eyes due to our thirst, even Carlisle, who never let his hunger show on his eyes, since he worked around the same people everyday and they would notice the difference.
We all began to laugh at the obvious observation. I saw a whole group of beautiful people around me. We were all laughing and I had my arms around the most gorgeous man. He saw me looking up to him and then he leaned down to kiss my lips. His skin was hard, but warm to my touch; he had scars, half-moon scars all over his body. He was the perfect man for me and he loved me back.
"I love you, Alice" he said in a deep, wonderful voice
"I love you too, Jasper" I said back
"You guys ready to hunt?" Carlisle asked our group. He gave out this father like vibe.
Everybody nodded and Emmett cheered in response.
"Shut up, Emmett. Excuse him, but he gets overly excited with hunting" Edward said looking towards Jasper and me.
We all walked outside, Jasper holding my hand tightly. As soon as we stepped out into the backyard, which was a forest, Emmett ran full speed with Rosalie on his back, she was laughing so hard. He then jumped on top of a male bear and killed it, they both sucked out its blood. We all did the same with the animals we found.
"Alice, could I have a minute?" Jasper asked coming next to me as his eyes slowly changed to golden
"You can have the rest of eternity, Jasper" I smiled, cupping his cheek. He smiled and took my hand in his. He quickly put my fingers to his mouth, licking the animal blood that had dried off on them.
"Jasper!" I slapped his arm playfully but then giggled when he tickled my palm
"Alice?" he asked serious, keeping my hand
"Yes, Jasper?" I asked with a smile because I knew what was about to happen. He kneeled in front of me.
"You are the woman I had been waiting for since I could think of girls in this way. You have been the one to guide me and help me this past couple of years. I want you to continue guiding me for the rest of time. Without you, I would be lost and nothing would have interest or something to catch my attention. You once promised me time and now, I ask you to join me for the rest of it. Alice, would you please be my wife and be with me for the rest of our lives?" he asked as he exposed a beautiful ring inside a little black box. I giggled, sat on his knee and hugged him tightly.
"Yes, Jasper" I said giggly as he slipped the finger into the fourth finger on my left hand. The feeling didn't compare to the one that I got when I saw this in one of my visions, it was SO much better. I wanted to laugh and I wanted to cry, but I just stayed silent with a smile on my face and my arms around Jasper.
We both looked at it for a while and then I couldn't wait anymore and I kissed him. I kissed him in a way I had never kissed him. He gave a little gasp and we both fell to the forest ground, our lips connected.
A couple of minutes later, we pulled away and got up; he hugged me tightly to his chest.
"Were you surprised when I proposed to you?" he asked and I could hear his voice clearly on the inside of his chest
"No" I giggled
He pulled away and looked at me, pouting
"Why not?"
"Because…I had a vision and I saw that this was going to happen"
"When did you have this…demonic vision of yours?" he asked clearly sad
"…last night. But I was still very much surprised and I loved it"
He looked up to the sky and hugged me again
"Damn visions" I heard him say under his breath
I couldn't help but giggle again. I leaned up on my toes and made a trail of kisses from his forehead down to his collarbone, just to make him feel better. And also to give him a little clue as to what our plans were for tonight, I was ready. I felt him relax and smile involuntarily as he got a sense of my feelings.
