Lost in Thought - open

[jasper hale]

"Are you ever going to let that go?" Jasper teased in response to her usually line about keeping him waiting, she had to give him some credit for turning up at all he had not known a thing about her or who she was, he had not known they were going to meet. It had been a surprise turning up at this little diner and have Alice come running up to him all he remembered even know being taken a back by her, but he felt some sort of connection to her that he just could not explain. Sometimes he wondered whether he would have still found Alice if he had chosen not to walk into that diner, if he had walked straight past it would she have continued to look for him or would she have just kept on waiting for him, he liked to think that she would.

When she called him handsome he stuck his tongue out her, the scars across his neck and chest, the bite marks along his arms yet Alice could still see him as handsome, he knew she what she would say if he debated the point they had argued about it before, so instead he choose not to say anything about the scars. "And I will love you always and forever" He confirmed repeating back to her what she had said to him, I love you was a phrase the two of them did not say often enough in Jasper's opinion and that was probably because they did not get enough alone moments like this.

Standing up he took both of Alice's hands "Come on let's go for a walk .. or do I have to carry you?" They had sitting down for too long and he felt the need to stretch his legs and keep on moving around, sometimes he knew his wife could be a little lazy, so before she had chance to respond to his question, he scooped her up in his arms and began walking slowly at a human pace. Alice was about the weight of a feather to him, she was just way to light it was unnatural in his opinion even for a vampire to be this light, but then again he is quite a strong vampire so he is not sure if she is actually heavier, but is just really light to him. "So how as your day been? Esme's redecorating the old Swan House i don't know if she told you .... or if you hd seen it yet" Jasper realised what he was saying just after he had said it, of course Alice knew for once he wished he would be able to surprise her by saying something she had not foreseen.

[alice]

“Hmm, let me think. Probably not.” She grinned as she looked at her husband. Yes she gave him some credit—though she’ll never admit it, after all he had no idea that she was waiting for him for that matter. It was always what made her smile. He had come anyway, even if he hadn’t known what a day it would turn out to be. She had sensed that they would have a good bond—and that she cared deeply for him—why she wasn’t sure, all she knew was that it was a very real connection.

Something she had longed for—but yet hadn’t had to her knowledge. The truth was, whether he would have walked into that diner or not, she would have continued to wait—and to look for him. He was her soulmate after all. Their time together had proved that.

She knew how he felt about the term ‘handsome’ but to her he was. It hadn’t mattered about his physical scars because to her, beauty was within, and he had alot of it. His personality, everything about him was worth looking at. She winked when he had said he loved her too, always and forever. It was something they didn’t say as often as either had wanted, or often enough. Because they didn’t get enough time with one another alone like this, and moments like this were to be cherished.

She couldn’t help but look down at her hands when he had took both of them and suddenly before she had a chance to say anything much less protest to her husband’s decision to pick her up. She thought it was cute. He had done it many times before though he had probably thought she was lazy but no, it was because he didn’t give her a chance to actually express whether she wanted to be carried or to just walk. She smiled comfortably at her husband and looked at him in the eyes. “My day? Hmm. You know how my day is usually. I’m usually worried—keeping track of what’s going on in the forseeable future—excluding of course the shifters and our niece.” She smirked as she looked at him. “But what about you? What are your plans for today? And yes Esme said she was redecorating some old homes, quite surprised I hadn’t seen her finishing any of them. I hadn’t known which houses she was doing. Quite surprised I didn’t have a vision to see which houses she was doing. Means you’re one step a head of me today, my love. That’s definitely a surprise. I don’t think you get the oppertunity to surprise me much, so be grateful.” She winked at her husband. ” Anyway, thank you for the head’s up...seems like my visions must be a step behind you today.” She grinned as she was still beind held by her husband, it was comfortable enough that if she was actually able to sleep, she probably would have, right in his arms. “You enjoy carrying me around don’t you?” She teased as she looked at the scenery around them and back to her husband. He was the only thing in the surroundings she wanted to be focused on and for the most part she was. Her mind had been on the ball since Jasper had told her about what Aro had wanted him to do, which is probably why she hadn’t seen Esme working on their sister Isabella’s old home as she was too busy worrying about the Volturi..

[jasper hale]

As Alice spoke her day Jasper smiled and nodded listening as she went on to speak about what he had told her about Esme, it turned out that she was in fact oblivious to this which did make him smile, he liked to for once be a step in front of his wife when it came to her visions even if it did not happen very often. "My day? Let's see I have Emmett challenging me to another wresting match for quite awhile, he's convinced I cheated yesterday, that you told me something, so he won't let go of the fact that he lost, but I think I am going to enjoy this victory a little while longer before he beats me again. I finished all the English homework I was given, but that took five minutes I have written almost a thousand essays on the portray of the american dream in the Great Gatsby, I do wish they would ask some new questions and actually make it more interesting

Jasper doubted that even new questions would make learning more interesting, he was just glad that he did not have to actually pay attention to the teacher he was to busy and focused on not killing the students in his classes to try learn anything. As Alice teased him about enjoying carrying her he grinned kissing her forehead "Of course, I like you right here it's where you're safest and to be honest I don't think I carry you enough, maybe I should carry you everywhere instead of walking? How would you feel about that?" He teased in response to her teasing, Jasper could still sense her fear and worry, but he knew he would have to work a miracle to make her forget about it completely, he just hope he could make a decision that would keep her safe. "Why do you not like being carried?' Holding her a little tighter as he asked the question, "Though no matter what question you give I will be carrying you more often, whether you like it or not"

[alice]

It wasn’t just the future she had to think of—but everything else. Going to classes were trivial in her mind. But when she had told him about not having a vision regarding what Esme was up to, he seemed to be pleased to be one step ahead of her. She smiled as that didn’t happen very often. “Well your arm wrestling challenges are always amusing to see. I always enjoy seeing your competitions.” She grinned as she said it, but like it or not everything was the way she had hoped it would be. “Well it sounds like he’s a sore loser for not wanting to believe that you could beat him on your own. Ah, yes. Well given our lifespan—that doesn’t surprise me that you’ve been able to write as many essays as you have on certain subjects. I agree with you though, they need to add new questions in there somewhere to throw us off guard, but I doubt they’d be able to do that, even though I doubt that’d make it even more interesting. At least we don’t have to pay attention in class if we don’t want to—especially on subjects where we’ve heard the information repeated more than once.” She chuckled as she said it.

She knew he enjoyed it, and when he kissed her on the forehead she grinned slightly. “I know but think about it, you can’t exactly fight your best, when you’re holding on to me like this.” She replied honestly as she looked into her husband’s eyes. She knew that he wanted her to be safe above all else. “Besides, I don’t think that’d work too well inside the highschool.” She teased as she looked around at the scenery before facing her husband. “I never said that I don’t like being carried, Jazz. It’s the fact that I shouldn’t have to be when I’m quite capable of walking somwhere.” She smiled as it was nice not having to walk, though she’d never admit it. “Alright and whether you like it or not—I will object to it from time to time.” She said as she felt safe in her husband’s arms hell she felt safe just being in close proximity to him. That was how much she felt his protective nature around her. “It’s a good thing that grip of yours doesn’t hurt me—given I’m a vampire, but if I weren’t you’d probably have me broken in half by now.” She winked at him. While he was worried about her safety, she was worried about his. It was what the two of them had always done, worried about eachother far more than most couples would. Some might say the two of them needed to ease up and give eachother space but she hadn’t wanted that then—she honestly doubted she ever would.

[jasper hale]

Jasper chuckled at Alice's response to his wrestling match against Emmett, "Well with Edward, You and me having our abilities I guess his strength give him some reason to feel valuable, so I think I understand his frustration towards loosing, but sometimes him going on about winning does get on my nerves slightly and it feels good to knock him down to size" Alice went on to talk about as he had the questions during class, she was correct due to their life span it was no surprise, but she could not deny that it was frustrating, Jasper missed being challenged by subjects. It had always interested him to learn more he was the family scholar he read more than the others and was always changing subject in an attempt to learn something new instead of recycling the same lessons.

Her jokes about him being unable to fight whilst holding him did in deed make him chuckle "How would you know? I think I could be at a slight advantage here, you could tell me what is going to happen and I can dodge, avoid and kill when necessary" he teased in response, this did make him think bringing up all of his old military and newborn training, holding Alice would put him at a tactical disadvantage in the eyes of his enemies making him a quick and easy target, they however would be unaware of her ability to warn him of their attack if they were not a shifter or a hybrid. This meant he would have an advantage over them and could possibly set them aside as equals, then it all depend on their designated route of attack how they choose to go about trying to get to them, several scenarios ran through his mind in which of course he got the better of his attacker as he knew he would. Tuning back into her conversation Alice was now talking about how she was capable of walking somewhere instead of him carrying her which made him smile "I can drop you if you would prefer?" He had been attempting to be sentimental remembering the times long ago when he had carried her usually she had been in some sort of pain, but Alice being Alice had shut her mind to the past and was focusing instead on practicalities it saddened Jasper a little to hear her do this, but after all he lived in the past sometimes whilst she lived in the future.

Alice's comment however about his grip made him quickly loosen it, "If you weren't a vampire I would be as cautious as ever, I would never hurt you" There was a slight seriousness to his tone, even though he understood Alice had meant it like a joke he knew even now he could hurt her and it was something he did not want to even consider a possibility, he could not live with himself if he hurt her in any way maybe he should be more cautious around her instead of the way he was now he thought to himself quietly.

[alice]

She chuckled innocently as she looked at her husband. “Well Emmett is quite intimidating in that aspect, at least that’s the kind of energy he throws off, but you and I know better than that. His size is one thing, but that’s why it’s always interesting to see him lose—to well get knocked down to size. Hell his ego needs to take a hit once and a while.” She commented as she looked at her husband, knowing that their brother was a good guy—and sometimes he just needed to be reminded that he couldn’t win at everything. And yet if he hadn’t acted that way, he wouldn’t be who he was. Of course due to the fact they had extremely long lives—the questions in class got old and fast and she understood his need to learn more—to always find something new to learn. It was what she loved most about him—aside from his looks. It just was befitting of his personality. He had made her smile every time he recounted some quote in history—when she couldn’t even do that. Not that she had really attempted to, but that’s what made her love Jasper more. He was the family scholar, and was able to pinpoint new moves that could be taken within battle to help win in scenarios where it could be deadly and fast. “Because my love, you would be unable to truly fight. Ducking and guarding yourself isn’t the kind of man you are. Plus it’d be harder to kill your enemy with me in your arms. Though I love the fact that you would try.” She grinned at her husband. Of course she could not see into the future when it came to hybrids or shifters which was unfortunate, especially in battle. Of course, it would put them as equals against vampires, because with Jasper’s fighting style and her visions it was like throwing a one-two punch back to back. Of course it didn’t matter how he fought—she would be worried for him nevertheless. He was a good fighter and had proved quite useful in their battles, but that wasn’t why she wanted him around—she wanted him around because she loved him.

She knew that he was only trying to be sentimental, and to focus on the past somehwat, but she couldn’t really do that. Her mind was forever stuck in the present or the future, and very rarely did she think about the past. “You wouldn’t. You prefer me right here, anyway. Right where you can keep an eye on me.” She smiled as she said it, knowing how very true it was. Besides the two had known eachother for so long that they had been able to pinpoint, in which subject could there be a hint of teasing and when it was time to be serious. She shook her head. “I was only joking, Jazz. You could never hurt me, besides I enjoy the tight grip you had on me....you weren’t hurting me Jazz. I’d let you know if you were. You know that. But you can’t treat me like I’m some fragile human. I’m stronger than you might think. I can take whatever you throw at me. And treating me like I’m so fragile that I can be broken doesn’t help your cause any.” She told her husband in all seriousness.

[jasper hale]

He could not help but chuckle when she said Emmett was intimidating Jasper had been around him long enough to no longer find is brother intimidating, he was more like a playful giant. "I agree and it gave me a small amount of pleasure to do it" Jasper laughed it was true there had been a small amount of satisfaction at beating his brother with no help from an ability at all with everything Emmett said to him from time to time there was satisfaction in finally getting him back for it all. Alice went on to pick up on the flaws of holding her and fighting at the same time and he could not help but wonder if she doubted his fighting capabilities a little bit, but to be honest that pleased him a little bit because he knew he was capable of carrying someone and fighting. He had done it before Peter had been slightly heavier than Alice, but he had carried him off the battle field to save his life and fought off a newborn attack after Peter had taken a particularly bloody attack to the neck, it was obviously something he had not mentioned to Alice "You know what you are probably right, so let's avoid any big fights whilst i'm carrying you" Jasper teased her wanting to keep their conversation light hearted and it gave him another excuse to tease her if he veered away from the truth slightly.

"Of course, that's my job to keep you out of trouble" He whispered back kissing her on the cheek, it did not surprise him that she noticed the change in his voice back to being serious as she talked about how he was not hurting her, he did worry that he was going to hurt her someday or at sometime maybe even by accident. If he lost control of his anger or his thirst, he knew he could do things that he did not meant to and the last thing he wanted to do was hurt her "I know you are, it's not you being weak that I worry about" This was true he knew Alice was tougher than she looked it was himself and his capabilities or control that he worried about, not his feisty little Alice, leaning forwards he kissed her forehead again squeezing her close to him again.

[alice]

She loved her entire family but to most mortals Emmett was the most intimidating out of the family. Which was quite funny given he was practically a big teddy bear. Jasper would call him a playful giant, which was also the case. “I’m sure it did. But you have to admit to humans, he’s the most intimidating one of all of us. You know it’s true. You and Emmett I think could be considered the most intimidating. Which is just funny because I know you both too well. And I’m sure it did give you some pleasure to kick his ass! He needed it kicked to be honest.” After all Emmett needed to get kicked down once in a while but that didn’t mean she wanted to see him lose repeatedly.

Even if she was rooting for her husband to win every time. She knew her husband was capable of doing whatever it was that he set his mind to. That did not mean she didn’t worry about him. “You can try to avoid them all you want, after all I can’t stop you. You’re going to do what you want anyway.” She teased her husband as she looked at him.

“Please, me get into trouble? That’s not my department honey, that’s yours and our brothers. You guys get into more trouble than I ever could. Please stop worrying about me so much. I know you fear that you’re going to hurt me. And that you won’t be able to stop it. But you need to relax a little bit.” She told her husband honestly as she felt him hold on to her tighter and kissing her first on the cheek and then on her forehead. She loved being in close proximity to him. Although she sometimes didn't like to be carried but in times like this it was okay.

“Jazz, honey...I love you. But you need to relax. I know that you’re scared. You can try to hide that from me all you want but it doesn't work. I know you're scared that you’ll hurt me, Jazz. But believe me, there is nothing you could do that would hurt me. But you have got to understand I am stronger than you might think." She sighed before she continued, knowing they've had this discussion since they started their life together. "I know you have to keep your emotions in check and that you can’t afford to lose your temper around me, it’s what you’ve alawys told me. But you have got to give yourself some credit, honey, we’ve made it this far without either one of us getting hurt. I think we do a good job as long as we’re together.” She winked at her husband, thinking of all the trouble the two of them could get themselves into, with a little bit of time, and just to be alone with one another. It brought a smile to the woman’s face as she thought about it. She didn’t like the fact that Jasper was so careful all of the time. He needed to loosen up a bit and have some fun.

[jasper hale]

Jasper nodded "Oh of course to humans he is incredibly intimidating, almost as I am to vampires which I think also frustrates him" It was true new vampires did seem hesitant around Emmett and him due to Emmett's size and Jasper's scars it made them twice as intimidating when they stood together, but it did made Jasper laugh as Alice said she knew them to well and though first impressions meant a lot they could be very deceiving because he would only hurt someone who threatened his family everyone knew that.

"You little liar" Moving his fingers around her he tickled Alice gently "You know how to get into trouble you just have help avoiding it" Jasper had to admit Emmett, Edward and him had better chances of getting into trouble than Alice, Bella and Rosalie, except for the fact that Edward and Bella seemed to just attract trouble. Then again guys were known for being more troublesome then girls and Jasper had to admit though he did not do it very often, getting in trouble was so much more fun than not being good all the time.

When Alice told him to relax he could not help but feel embarrassed, she spoke about knowing how he was feeling and managed to sum it up pretty easily though Alice was right the two of them had managed to dodge danger even though it had got a little to close with the Volturi for his liking. "You know me way to well" Jasper teased "And I know you are right, but ... it's difficult to let go of it all, but I'm trying " Her wink made him smirk, he loved how carefree she could be and how positive she was constantly it was one of the many things that had attracted him to her so much. A part of him knew that she was right he did need to learn to let go a little more and it was a difficult thing for him to do, he felt that every time he allowed himself to let go and relax something would go wrong, just because it had happened once.

[alice]

She smiled as she looked at her husband, he was handsome, even if he didn’t think so. She liked the fact he looked so intimidating, but of course the humans were wary of him and Emmett. Hell they were wary of them all. Except for Bella, she had been the only human—who had ever gotten as close as she had without too many problems. Now of course Bella was their sister, as she had forseen that she would be. It had been a very good thing too. She knew that Jasper would never hurt anyone—unless of course they threatened his family, which was the same for them all. They were protective of eachother in that way, which was something she loved.

Yes, of course it frustrates him, which I find hilarious. You know how he is. Of course you and I both know that when you and Emmett stand next to eachother the humans are twice as intimidated. Which we both know why that is.” She smiled as he tickled her gently. “Who said I’m a liar. I avoid trouble...my love. Besides it’s you boys we have to worry about. You, and our brothers tend to get into more trouble than any of us girls combined. If not more so. But I think that’s to be expected.” She smirked as she looked at her husband as she just enjoyed being as close to him as she was.

The vampire knew how close they had had been with the Volturi, and it was something she had not liked. She did not want a repeat of it if necessary. “Yes, I do, but that’s what happens when you’re married to someone for as long as you and I have been married.” She teased. She could be a happy and bubbly individual so long as her family was safe, if they were in danger well all hell tended to break loose. “Well of course I am, my love. And I know that you have a hard time letting it go but you need to. Besides, it’s my job to worry about the future, you just need to focus on the here and now and stop thinking about what might go wrong.” She answered as she loved her husband fiercely and she would do anything and everything she had to, to reassure him that they would be alright. Just like she reassured him when they were in the high school that he wasn’t going to hurt anyone as she knew just how paranoid Jasper could get about hurting someone—especially her. There was no one else in the world that she would rather call her husband than that of Jasper Whitlock Hale, which was what he knew as well. As she didn’t even need to tell him, as he already knew. The two knew eachother better than anyone else in their entire family.

[jasper hale]

Jasper chuckled of course the girls stayed out of trouble .. well except for Rosalie she caused a lot of trouble in Jasper's eyes but that could be subjective to different people, it was probably just because he knew her nature better than anyone else he could see the way she felt about herself and how she pushed that anger on to other people. "Oh you cause trouble my dear and you know you do, but you also know how to avoid it" Jasper commented truthfully of course she knew how to escape trouble that's what he would do if he could see the future and he knew that is what Alice did even if she did not admit it. "Besides you always give me trouble, but good trouble" Especially at Christmas, her birthday or on their anniversary though Jasper had begun to slowly see ways around the trouble by using the flaws in her visions, which did frustrate her he knew but it did give him a fighting chance at trying to surprise her.

The comment about how long they had been married did make him smile, but all the years they had been together he could still remember seeing her for the first time, as if it was only yesterday his own personal beacon of hope. "I'll try" He reassured her, knowing that it was going to be difficult, he had always struggled with relaxing but depending on the people he was around it was easier the calmer and more relaxed they were he could leech on to that. "If you also try to stop worrying" he bargained with her knowing he could get more out of this deal, if he was going to stop worrying and try to relax a little then she should to it seemed only fair in his opinion. Alice worried way to much this he knew and she could do with a day of relaxing too and he would like for her to have one the world would not fall apart if she stopped worrying "We will have a day where you stop worrying and I relax, how about that?"

[alice]

When it came to members of her family she was very protective—and tried to stay out of trouble but sometimes she got herself into it by trying to protect the people she loved. “Yes, well you cause more than I ever could, my love. But I also know how to avoid it—even without my ability. Something that I think, my dear husband, that you need to work on.” She teased truthfully, as she knew good and well she could avoid trouble—for the most part on her own though her ability did help...except in certain sitautions where she could not forsee the future in which case that got old and fast.

“Yes but it’s my job as your wife to give you trouble from time to time. Otherwise our marriage would have been dull.And I can’t help it that my gift gives you trouble around the holidays, for my birthday and our anniversary when you try to surprise me.” She smiled warmly toward her husband as she would be lost without him, something he knew very well. She did need to stop worrying, she knew that, at least to a certain extent, but like Jasper, she had trouble trying to stop worrying the way that he had trouble relaxing. Smirking, she looked at her husband. “You drive a hard bargain, my love. But I’ll try.” She said as she knew that it was going to take a little bit of time, after all she couldn’t control on how often she would have a vision, even when she wasn’t attempting to look into the future, sometimes it happened on it’s own. She knew she worried probably a little too much but she couldn’t help it. After all who wouldn’t in this day and age? What with the Volturi watching their every move and that was not something she could take lightly. “Honestly, we will have to wait and see. As you know as well as I do how difficult it is for both of us to relax and to not worry but you know as well as I do that it’ll take time. And time is what we have—since we have all but forever to do so.”

She said as she moved closer to him and kissed his cheek. She loved him far more than she had ever imagined that she would ever love anyone and that was why she was so protective over him and their entire family, because she loved each of them fiercely.

[jasper hale]

Jasper smiled as she spoke about managing to keep out of trouble, in comparison to her he was quite a magnet for the stuff he had to admit it made life more interesting with a little trouble otherwise it could just get boring or at least that was what he found. With action and purpose life ... or well death or whatever it was they were living it was more exciting if they had something to do, sometimes all the monotonous days of going to school learning the same things answering the same questions, doing the same activities as much as Jasper enjoyed this a little action made everything more exciting. Even Rosalie's drama and anger could be interesting for him after a boring day, even though she like most people hated him manipulating the way he felt around their family it was not something he did to often just kept everything calm, so they all got on with each other.

"That is true, we have forever to work on it" Jasper was not going anywhere and neither was she, so it meant that they would be around forever and it gave them plenty of time to work on all of their problems, though it also gave them a chance to get new problems though he knew that Alice would always surprise him, she'd always be able to keep him on his toes. "Everything is going to be fine you know" He spoke gently as they reached the end of the trees their home now standing before them, he probably should put her down on the floor again, but he felt happier carrying her still reluctantly he put her down so she could stand on her own two feet. Just because he had put her down however did not mean he was going to let her go anywhere, to prevent her from running off not that she would he wrapped an arm around her waist pulling her close to him. "So don't worry beautiful" With a smile he tucked a few strands of loose hair behind her ear and stroked her cheek softly with his rough hands enjoying the feel of her smooth skin.

[alice]

Being the wife of someone like Jasper she had gotten used to the chaos, the trouble that followed him and the rest of their family around. Though she had to admit it kept life interesting, it also drove her insane. As because of her family’s talent of getting into trouble, she was always watching them—always making sure she could get them out of it. Though she had to admit it kept life or whatever it was that they were—doing—interesting. Excitment came with what they were. The chases—the hunts—the fact was she enjoyed each time they did so. Yes there were dangers much like Bella and Edward had found out. She couldn’t help but feel herself being pressed up against her husband like an infant child would be. Though she couldn’t help that he made her feel like that—sometimes, though in a moment like this she didn’t really care. As they were together—they were happy and talking, which meant today was a good day. They didn’t fight often, but when they did, everyone knew to back off. Being what it was that they were did not allow for subtle change, and ignoring the teachers in highschool became their trademark. Life with the family was as perfect as it could get, yes there was drama but for the most part that made things interesting. Rosalie was the drama queen in the family and she knew that it was taxing to a certain extent on Jasper trying to keep everyone on the same page, and to manipulate the way they felt so that they could all get along. She didn’t like when Jasper manipulated what she felt but she understod why. He just wanted everyone to be calm and to get along, even if he had to put his ability to work to make it happen.

She smiled at her husband when he said they had forever to work on it. She had to agree with it. The two of them had been through a lot in their time together and even before that. Although along with the time they had, new problems would develop as she had forseen more than once. She was quite content being in Jasper’s arms though she knew the impractical approach he’d use if they were attacked. Because he’d never let her fall before. The one thing she loved about being able to see the future—even with it’s limitations, it kept her husband on his toes, and boy did she love that! When Jasper finalyl let her down, when they approached their home a sigh escaped her lips. It felt odd standing on her own two feet after being carried for a while. She knew that he did this reluctantly as he preferred to keep her as close to him as possible. But where else would she go? When Jasper then wrapped his arm around her waist to pull her close to him, she grinned lovingly at him.

She looked off into the trees before letting her gaze settle back on her husband’s face. He knew better than anyone what she went through—and how difficult it was to see what she saw....it wasn’t just that there was cruelty in the human world—but to see it through her eyes, the eyes of a vampire—it was something remotely different. They had so much else to worry about—to know what was truly out there, could be considered terrifying to some. “You don’t know that Jazz. Not even I know that and I’m the one that can see the future! And you know better than to tell me not to worry. I can’t help it. Just like you can’t, my dear husband.”She explained before cutting herself off. She smiled warmly at him as he tucked a few strands of her loose hair behind her ear and then stroked her cheek with his rough hands. Although to her they didn’t feel rough at all, but that was because she had been used to it by now. Not to mention they were the same temperature so it wasn’t like his hands ever seemed hot or cold to her. She loved her husband so much, and she never wanted to hurt him.
