“But,” Bella began but then she stopped and sighed. She turned her head in Alice’s direction, her eyes gently tracing over her lover’s delicate features. “Silly vampire,” Bella murmured a moment later, her voice impossibly affectionate and filled with love.
“Yeah,” Jasper sighed drawing Bella’s eyes over to him.
They held each others eyes for a moment, and Bella began to feel awkward. She and Jasper interacted, but it was usually very brief, and as a rule they tended to avoid Alice as a topic of conversation. Jasper had been very understanding of her relationship with Alice, and – unlike how Edward had been treating Alice – Jasper had been nothing but polite and kind to her. But, as always when they spent too much time together she began to feel like an interloper. She began to feel like a heel, a home-wrecker and she wondered how Jasper could possibly be so … nice.
“Very silly at times,” Jasper said a few seconds later, though it seemed like much longer to Bella. “She’s cute though,” he continued, his lips curving up in a smile as Bella turned to look at him.
Bella stared at his profile for a moment and then turned her eyes back to the couch as well. And so they continued their vigil over the woman that owned both of their hearts, Bella’s hand securely held in Jasper’s all the while.
this moment between bella and jasper is so worth the wait! i was wondering the last few days why there was no update yet, and i thought you were working on some awesome alice/bella/rosalie moments, but this rocks too. :)
i hope alice doesn't become more of a silly vampire though. i'm worried she'll blame herself, think that she can't protect bella, and push bella to spend more time with edward. *roll eyes* alice and jasper and emmett and rose can protect her.
