Chapter 05:
BPOV
I was not sure what to expect Peter and Charlotte to be like. If they would kill Alice without hesitation, I was pretty certain they would be gruff individuals. The idea made me wary and excited me at the same time. I looked next to me and Ty just looked annoyed and tired. I should be tired. I hadn’t had more than a couple hours sleep in the last 24 hours. I was finding out however that sleep was overrated.
I looked at Jasper. He stared straight ahead watching the road. One hand on the steering wheel, the other on my leg like it had always belonged there. He had a slight grin on his face that had remained since we ran Edward and Alice off the road. A smug satisfied look that I was finding to be very, very sexy. He blew up a car with Edward and Alice in it.
He deserved a blowjob on that fact alone in my book.
I was hoping to talk to him once we were away from Ty. I wanted to take care of this Bree situation. Maybe Ty could go back to his life. I knew one thing for certain though. He would be going without me. I knew it when I saw Jasper again at the boat ramps. This was it. This was why everything had happened. Everything had happened to bring us to each other.
He was a dangerous son of a bitch. I didn’t know if my destiny was to be his Mate or to be his dinner. I found I didn’t care either way. One way or another, short or long, this would be an interesting life.
“Whatcha thinkin about Swan?” Jasper asked without looking at me.
“What makes you think I am thinking of anything?”
“Your feeling contemplative.”
“Later.” I whispered. Not quietly enough.
“Whats goin on, Bella?” Ty asked, catching my answer to Jasper’s question.
“Nothing Ty. Jasper and I have some things we need to talk about. Thats all.”
“Uh huh.” he said and then continued to stare out the window.
I probably needed to have an in-depth discussion with Ty as well. Other than a brief emotionally heated discussion outside a rest stop bathroom. He would be going back without me. We had to talk about this. One way or another I wasn’t coming out of this situation alive. He had taken off with me. Our friends certainly knew by now. If he went back and I disappeared it could come down on him. He certainly couldn’t tell anyone I ran off with a vampire. Should something bad happen and Jasper does wind up leaving me behind as a bloodless corpse I don’t want him to be implicated.
We went down a dirt road off the main highway. I saw a sign that read Roswell, 4 miles. I suppose we were nearly there. Jasper certainly couldn’t go into town in this daylight. It made sense his friends wouldn’t live there either.
“Where the fuck are you takin us now?!” Ty asked.
“To my friends.” Jasper replied in a bored tone.
“Relax Ty. It will be fine. We are going to take care of your problems and you can go back to your life.” I said, trying to sooth him.
“Not without you Bella.”
This was going to be a problem.
“I’m not going back, Ty.”
“We’ll see.” he murmured.
Yep. It was definitely going to be a problem. I don’t know what his problem is. He should be ready to get back to Arizona.
We pulled up at a trailer in the middle of the desert. A travel trailer. I was confused at first. Most RVs go to RV parks for sewage hookup and power at least. Then I saw a generator and realized they don’t really need sewage. That could be a problem.
Jasper parked next to a truck resembling his. The truck however was red and on the tail gate was painted to resemble…
“You gotta be fucking kidding me.” I heard beside me.
A rebel flag.
“Relax Ty. Don’t start anymore shit with the vampires.”
“Whatever Bella. I’m tired and I need a nap. Can you stand guard and make sure they don’t eat my ass? I realize you are asking for it but I’d like to keep my sweet blood where it belongs.”
“Yeah.” I sighed.
The door to the trailer opened up and a tall slim man in a beat up cowboy hat walked out. His arms were sparkling in the sunlight.
“Ain’t that some fucked up shit.” Ty whispered. He had seen Bree sparkle briefly but i suppose he never had a close look at a vampire in the daylight.
Jasper opened the door and before I could slide out Ty’s side he grabbed my hand and pulled me close to him.
“Major.” The vampire I assumed was Peter walked up and shook Jasper’s hand.
“Major? You call him Major? I thought you said the war was history, Major?” Ty said accusingly at Jasper.
“Son, vampire wars ain’t ever over. My name is Peter.” Peter walked up to Ty and offered his hand. Ty to my great relief took it.
“Tyrone. Call me Ty.”
“Damn glad to have you here Ty. Any friend of Jasper’s is a friend of mine.”
“We ain’t friends.” Jasper said quickly.
I elbowed Jasper. It hurt.
“So you must be the famous Bella Swan the Major has been obsessing over for the past two years. I thought you was gonna let her be? I told you. Whats meant to be is meant to be. No point in fighting it. Look at all the great sex you two missed already.”
“Yep. Thats me. Bella Swan.” He took my hand and kissed the back of it.
“It is a great pleasure to meet you ma’am. The God of War’s mate. My my. You do seem like you are up to the challenge.”
“Stop laying on the charm Peter.” I looked at the door and a beautiful blonde, short, slim with breast that made me instantly jealous, walked out. She walked over and took my hand.
“I’m Charlotte.”
“Bella.”
“Well hell, come on in out of this heat ya’ll.”
That said we followed them inside. The inside was… nice. Oh this was not going to go over well.
“Nice decor.” Ty said quietly. Covering one wall was a rebel flag. The other had a Texas flag over it.
“Yeah, we like it. Oh shit. You’re black ain’t ya? Mean no offense.” Peter sounded sincere.
“You just now notice I’m black?” Ty asked.
“When you eat humans they all seem to look the same. I ain’t racist. I’ll kill people of any color.” Peter explained. Charlotte began looking at the floor and shaking her head.
Ty just moved directly next to me.
“Ya’ll have a seat.”
We sat on a sofa of some sort. Charlotte and Peter sat across from us on a recliner. Charlotte sat on Peter’s lap. Damn it was hot in here.
“So when you changin her, Major? You want to do it here?” Peter asked. That made it real. Peter didn’t beat around the bush. A chill shot down my back.
“Whoa! Hold the fuck up!”
“Ty calm down. You knew this would probably happen.” I whispered. I don’t know why. Not like they all couldn’t hear me.
“Nope. They are not killing you Bella. Let’s take our chances with the other vampires. At least they just want me.”
“Can I talk to you outside Ty?” Jasper asked. Oh shit.
“No! I mean… just no Jasper. Please?”
“I’m not gonna hurt him darlin. I just want an open dialogue where we can get lay our positions on the table.”
“Then I will come with you.” I moved to get up but Ty’s hand held me back.
“Nah Bella. I think that a great idea. Time me and cornbread got things straight. You sit here and we will be right back.”
“Jasper do not eat him!” I whispered. Jasper winked at me. I didn’t know if that was good or bad.
The two walked outside and I was left alone with Peter and Charlotte who were smiling at me but not speaking.
Guess I should break the silence.
“You guys wouldn’t happen to have any alcohol, would you?” A girl could hope.
“Matter of fact I do. Patron, right?”
“How did you know?”
“I know things darlin. Kind of a gift you could say. I don’t know everything, but occasionally I get notions I tend to follow.”
“Here Bella. You sit and I’ll get you a drink or several if you need it. So when is he going to bite you?” Charlotte asked.
“Uh… we haven’t really talked about it. I suppose there is a 50/50 chance he may kill me instead.”
“Bullshit.” Peter replied. “No chance of that happening.”
“That so?” I asked having mixed feelings. Ty is right. I do have issues.
“Oh don’t ruin it for her, Peter. The chance of being killed intrigues her. Doesn’t it Bella?” Char asked.
“Uh… of course not. Its just Jasper and I haven’t really known each other, I mean known the way we are now… you know…” I fumbled to explain.
“Please girl. I recognize the look. If he came in here right now and told you to undress because he was gonna try to turn you but he may kill you, you would be in that bedroom in a heartbeat. Its not problem. I like a little danger too. You know the two of you belong together. Don’t be gettin shy now. Ain’t gonna matter. He decided a while ago that he wanted you. Jasper tends to get what he wants.” Char responded to my sudden indecision on a potential relationship.
“He tell you about his past?” Peter asked.
“Yes…”
“You still want to be around him?”
“Yes…”
“Then you two were made for each other.” Peter finished.
“So if you know things what is going to happen from here on out?” I asked.
“I don’t know everything Bella. Even if I did I wouldn’t tell you. It would take the fun out of it for you.” Peter grinned.
“And that would be a tragedy, wouldn’t it Bella?” Charlotte asked, already knowing the answer.
I took the drink she handed me and gulped half of it down. Then I asked what was really on my mind.
“He’s gonna be okay right? Ty?”
“Yeah. Jasper would never hurt anyone that would hurt you. You mean to much to him already.” Peter said in a no bull shit tone. That made me feel better. A little better anyway. I should probably look out the window.
JPOV
“Okay Ty. Its time we talked about what is going on here.”
We walked a ways away from the trailer.
“Yeah it is. You are planning on killing my girl. My girl who has a fucking death wish. She always been like this? You knew here when she was in High School? She always have a thing for danger?”
For once it didn’t seem like he was being sarcastic. Guess I did bring him out here to talk.
“Well, she dated a vampire after figuring out what he was on her own. I guess thats pretty dangerous. She gave me glances across parking lots and in hallways at the school we attended as part of our disguise. She knowingly ran to a vampire bent on killing her thinking she he had her mother. So yeah, I guess danger never really bothered her. I never realized hos much she sought it out though. I always thought she was kind of stupid for becoming involved with our kind. I guess she knew exactly what she was doing.”
“Those people in that Porsche. That was her ex boyfriend and your ex wife?”
“Yep.”
“Why did they want her?”
“He wants her. He thinks she belongs to him. My ex wife thinks she belongs to him. They are wrong.”
“You think she belongs to you?” He asked with a disbelieving look on his face.
“I know she does.”
“Then you a dumbass. That girl don’t belong to nobody.” I didn’t argue. He didn’t understand vampires. She did. I belonged to her as much as she belongs to me.
“You love her? Not want her but really love her?”
“Yeah I do.” I told him honestly.
“Why? How? You haven’t known her that long. You hadn’t seen her in a minute. How can you say that now after not much more than a day?”
“When she was in school she became really depressed after my coven mate left her. He came back and wanted her. Said he couldn’t live without her. She dumped tomato soup on his head. Later on in the year she had a boyfriend. She really didn’t like the guy that much. But she did it to piss him off. Not to make him jealous mind you but to piss him off. She snuck into my coven mate’s car and had sex in it. Vampires have a very good sense of smell. She knew he would be smelling the scent of her fucking that boy for a long time. The only thing more dangerous than dating a vampire is telling that vampire to fuck off. She did it. With an exclamation point. When I walked into that parking lot and Edward opened that door, I looked across to her truck. She was leaned up against it, smiling, just watching. I fell in love with her then.”
“Then why you got to kill her?”
“I tried to stay away Ty. But she… she is too much. I did the best I could. The minute my ex wife said she needed help, actually you needed help as it turned out, I couldn’t resist her any longer. I’m not going to kill her.”
“Yes you are. You may turn her into one of you but you are taking her away from her old life. Her parents will think she is dead. College will be over. She has a good life there. She has friends.”
“Friends she abandoned without a word or a second thought. Sounds like she was real attached.” I pointed out.
“I can’t stop you. I spent all night figuring out how to stop you, but I can’t stop either of you, can I?”
“Nope.”
He said nothing. He looked out over the desert towards a mountain in the distance.
“Why do you care so much?” I asked.
“Say what?”
“Why do you care? I can tell you care about her more than a typical college friend. But you have no romantic feelings towards her. Why do you care. You’re a black guy from inner city Houston. She’s the whitest human I have ever seen from all over. You have nothing in common really. Why do you care?”
I expected an angry response but Ty surprised me.
“Last year I’m new on campus. I’m the big thing. Top twenty high school basketball player in the Country. Everybody wants a piece of me. I got agents calling me all hours of the night before I stepped onto campus even thought it was against the rules. But I knew everybody was out for themselves. So I’m moved into the dorm and I look outside and see this skinny white girl lugging in bags by herself. I also see this black dude and his parents pulling bags in. Only they got a girl in a chair. Kid had Spina Bifida. You know what that is?”
I nodded.
“Anyway they leave this girl downstairs under some shade. People are walking by avoiding looking at her. A few laugh after they pass by. Treatin the kid like she got the plague or she some kinda side-show freak. I’m getting pissed off and about to head down there when I see the skinny white girl drop her bags. She had noticed a guy laughing, and shot the finger at him. Then she sits down next to the girl and starts talkin. Doesn’t stop until the girls parents come back and take her. She has this girl smilin and laughin. Anyway the girl leaves and the skinny white chick grabs her bags and starts tuggin them up the stairs. I decide I have to know her. Then I see her walkin down the hall and movin into the room across mine. She took one look at me, smiled and then moved on. No attraction, but no fear. She wasnt scared of the big black guy across the hall. I decided right then, I was gonna be friends with her. She got herself into some shit her first semester. We got into some shit together. But that little girl is like a sister to me. The only one outside my family I really trust. Who likes me for me and not what she can get out of me. Thats why.”
“Ty, I understand your concerns. But Bella, man Bella was always going to be a vampire. She never had a chance at a normal life because she isn’t normal. A normal life would bore her. Take away her spirit. You don’t want to see that, do you?”
Ty was silent.
“How do I know you ain’t gonna kill her man?” He wasn’t looking at me. But I could tell. His eyes were misting. The big guy was getting worked up over this.
“You are gonna have to trust me.” I told him honestly.
“I’m never gonna see her again, am I?”
“Probably will. Once she gets everything under control. Turning into a vampire, it can drive you crazy for a bit. You will see her again though.”
Ty nodded and walked back towards the trailer. Before he reached the door he turned and walked around back. I figure I should give him some time.
BPOV
Jasper walked in. His eyes were still gold. I let out a breath.
“He’s fine Bella. Just takin a minute to collect himself. He really loves you. But you know that, don’t you.”
“Yeah.”
“Peter, Charlotte, will you give us a minute?”
Without a word Peter and Charlotte rose and walked out the door. Jasper locked it behind them. My heart started racing.
“Now?” I asked, nearly breathlessly.
“No. I promised you South Padre. Then I was thinking Vegas.” he said, while sitting next to me. He wrapped his arm around me and I leaned into him, enjoying his scent. A part of me was disappointed. I knew what he was going to do. He looked at me like a predator looks at prey. God help me, I loved it.
“We need to get Ty back to his life.” I told him.
“Yeah. But I thought he might like to stay around for a while. Enjoy some time with you. It may be a while before you can see him again.”
I nodded. That would be tough. For some reason my parents never seeing me again didn’t bother me. Charlie had his new life. Renee had hers. It was time I started mine.
“So when do we leave?”
“Tonight. We have some things to do first if you are game?”
“What is that?”
“How would you feel about being abducted by aliens?”
“I’ll play along but it’s gonna cost you.” I told him honestly.
“Cost me what darlin?”
“We are alone. The door is locked.”
“Yeah it is.”
Jasper leaned in to kiss me. I felt his cool lips and opened myself up to him. He unbuttoned my shorts and started to pull them off of me.
Then we heard the knock on the door.
“Bella? Can I talk to you?”
Fuck.
Jasper pulled back and I buttoned up my shorts. “I’ll give you two some time.”
He walked out and Ty walked in. He sat across from me in the recliner.
“So you gonna do this, huh?”
“Yeah.” I noticed his eyes were red. I guess he got sand in them. Easy to do around here.
“You know what you are givin up?”
“Yeah.”
“Alright. We gonna ride this thing out together then.”
Now I had sand in my eyes.
“You want to get high while you still can?” he grinned.
“Yeah. Pass the Tequila as well.”
3 hours later I could barely stand. But we were having fun. Everything seemed funny. At least until Peter and Charlotte walked in.
“Time to go you two.” Peter said.
“Where the hell we goin dude?” Ty laughed.
“We got humans to abduct tonight. You two are the humans we aim to abduct. Bella don’t let Jasper give you any bullshit about needing to do an anal probe. Save that shit for when you are turned.” Peter wiggled his eyebrows. Even in my relaxed state I just clenched my ass cheeks. I was high but I wasn’t that high.
Four hours later and we were standing in the desert. I had taken a shower and Charlotte had given me a pair of her shorts and underwear to Jasper’s dismay. I was still buzzed. I still had my bikini top on. I seemed to have misplaced my shirt, or Jasper hid it. Probably Jasper hid it. I didn’t mind. But I needed alone time with him. I wanted to fuck him, plain and simple. Between the alcohol and weed my hormones were in overdrive.
“So its real simple. Up ahead about a half mile is a camper. The guy has video cameras running constantly, looking at the sky. YOu two run towards him screaming about Aliens. When you get there you know what to do.”
“I can’t believe this shit. This is some shit only white people can come up with.” Ty grumbled. I could tell though. He would enjoy this.
The two of us walked within site of the camper. A guy with long hair and a beard in a tie dye shirt was sitting on top of the camper. He had 6 cameras pointed at the sky.
“You ready for this?” I whispered.
“I hope I don’t puke when these fools pull me back.” Ty whispered.
“You’ll be fine. Lets go.”
I took off running and soon Ty was in front of me, big surprise. We both started yelling. The long haired man jumped and fell back in his chair. I stopped screaming and laughed for a moment then continued screaming.
“Help! Hide us. We have aliens after us!”
“How the hell did you two get out here?” He said picking himself up.
“Please. Aliens are trying to take us.”
“Give us a place to hide already, hippy!” Ty growled.
“Whoa there son…”
“I ain’t your son, boy. You got wheels on this thing? Cause we are getting the fuck out of here!”
“Now what are you doing out here?”
“We got taken by a UFO fool! We jumped out and those fuckers trying to catch us now! Get in the drivers seat of that beat up piece of shit and lets move!”
“How did you jump out? Where are they? What did they look like? Did they try to probe you?”
“Bitch this ain’t time for twenty questions! Get us the fuck out of here!”
“Okay, okay. Get inside!” He continued looking towards the darkness we had emerged from.
“Oh fuck.” I heard him whisper.
I turned and saw them. Oh my God.
“Peter and Charlotte were covered from head to toe green. They had alien masks on complete with antennas.
Charlotte moved so fast we couldn’t see her. Peter went to the top of the van and peered into the cameras. Hippy stood still, not daring to breathe. Peter grabbed him by the shoulders and slowly turned him around. He whimpered.
Peter applied more pressure to the man and he bent over at the waist.
“God please no anal probes. Please no…”
Peter ran his hand down the man’s back. Just before he reached his ass he stopped.
“Please. Please no. Not there.”
Peter swatted him softly on the ass. The man screamed and jumped form the top of the camper. He landed at our feet. Peter grabbed me and Charlotte grabbed Ty and they backed into the darkness. Finally Peter pointed a finger at the man staring from the ground and waved it back and forth. Then we were gone.
We arrived back thirty seconds later, two miles down the road. Ty was laughing. I wanted to puke up Tequila then remembered I hadn’t eaten in a while. I was placed on the ground and nearly fell. Jasper caught me.
“Did you see the look on that man’s face? He thought you was gonna finger his ass Pete!” Ty was either very high or startin to loosen up. I hope it was the former. Either way he was bent over at the waist laughing.
“You guys did good. No anal probes for you two.” Peter said taking off his mask.
“Damn girl. You got the best tits I ever seen on an alien.” Ty continued. I looked directly at Peter but he was smiling. Ty tends to speak without thinking at times.
“Okay. I need food.” I told Jasper who then kissed me gently.
“Lets go then. Peter could you guys follow us with Ty?”
“South padre?” Charlotte asked.
“Yep.”
“Fuck yeah. Time to party.” Peter smiled.
Jasper’s hands slipped underneath my bikini top. I turned into him. I wasn’t giving everyone a free show.
“Major, you did promise though.” Peter reminded him. Of what I’m not sure.
“One day and night in South Padre then we go to Vegas. We can fly. Be a lot less drivin.” Jasper replied.
Vegas? Why the hell not?
“No fuck this.”
I looked at Ty who had finally stopped laughing. We all looked at him.
“South Padre ain’t nuthin but sand and water. We did that already. Let’s get our asses to Vegas.”
I ran up to him and wrapped him in a hug.
“Thank you Ty.”
“Hey, I told you. We gonna ride this shit out together. Now lets get you some food on the way to the airport. Ain’t either of us ate in a while. Can’t live on Tequila and weed alone Bella.”
I turned to Jasper.
“You ready to ride?”
“Hell yeah darlin. Let’s head to Vegas.”
