Jasper got into the vehicle after some time and she sniffled.

"Can we go back to yours? Please?" She begged, on the verge of crying. Jasper nodded, his knuckles turning a lighter shade of white - if possible - as he clutched the steering wheel. In one swift motion, he began his drive.

Seraphina shakily sent a message to Charlie, Bella and Angela, saying she got a lift from Jasper and would see them soon.

"Are you okay?" Jasper asked her with gritted teeth. He felt what the boys were feeling and it infuriated him on how close Seraphina had been to one of the boys. Unintentionally, of course, but that doesn't rule out the fact that it had happened and she could've been...sexually assaulted.

"I'm...no." Seraphina sniffled again, wiping her eyes. "I...how do i explain what i did to Bella?"

"That's what you're worried about? Explaining yourself to her?" Jasper seethed. Not because of Seraphina's question, but because to him it was Bella's fault. He had seen Bella take Seraphina from the dress shop and then take her through the parkin lot.

"What else am i to do?" She asked quietly. "And...how did you and Edward know where we were? Were you following us?"

"I...yes, i was." Jasper said but then he quickly added, "but that's because i feel protective of you, Seraphina. I don't want anything bad to happen to you."

"What are you?" Seraphina softly asked. "You're incredibly cold, although it is comforting and never seems to make me feel cold. You're eyes a lovely gold and ember colour and i swear i never see you eat. What...what are you?"

"I-"

"You know what i am...it's only fair, is it not?" Seraphina didn't mean to sound so pushy, and Jasper understood why she was. She was distracting herself from the even that took place mere minutes before.

"I suppose. But think of the risks that would come with it." Jasper warned and Seraphina scoffed.

"To hell with the fucking risks." She chuckled sadly, wiping her eyes. "It's better knowing the risks and what you are then not knowing."

"I'm a vampire, love." Jasper replied calmly. He knew that Seraphina needed a calm atmosphere right now, so he shoved his anger aside momentarily.

"Whoa." Seraphina whispered, staring at Jasper with amazement. "Why haven't you killed me yet, then?" Jasper let out a loud laugh at the question and Seraphina scoffed. "Don't laugh! It's a genuine question! Why am i not dead?"

"My family's diet is...different. We don't feed on human blood." Jasper explained and Seraphina made an 'o' shape with her mouth.

"Then what the fuck do you eat? It sure isn't human food."

"We live off animal blood. As disgusting as it is, we are able to get by on it." Jasper replied, giving in to the need to answer all of the girl's questions.

"Wow. So....you're the vampire version of a veggie?" Jasper chuckled and nodded.

"I guess." A question popped into Jasper's mind and he frowned, his light mood slightly deflated. "Why aren't you scared of me? Of the monster i am?"

"Jaz...you're not a monster." Seraphina sighed, placing a hand on his.

"Why aren't you scared then?" He asked again, and Seraphina frowned.

"I don't really know." She said truthfully, and Jasper hummed, his eyes never leaving the road, apart from when he'd side glance at Seraphina. "I like to think it's because i'm not human, either. Us different species gotta stick together, huh?" Seraphina tried to lighten the mood at the end, and it worked a little. "And...i feel drawn to you. Like...something is physically tying my soul to yours. It's strange, to be honest."

"I know what you mean." Jasper quietly said, and Seraphina scoffed - again.

"Speak up, please and thank you. Some of us don't have advanced hearing." Rolling his eyes Jasper gave Seraphina's hand a slight squeeze.

"So...now you know." He began, pulling into the driveway of his home. The time had gone so quickly. "There are no secrets between us from now on, okay?"

"You say that like we're together." Seraphina joked, but Jasper smiled.

"What if i wanted us to be?" Seraphina beamed and then tried to hide it. A blush rose to her cheeks.

"And, uh...hypothetically...what would you do if i agreed?" She asked and Jasper smirked.

"Probably show everyone you're mine." Seraphina then pouted at his words.

"No kisses?"

"Depeneds." Jasper coily said. "Are we still talking hypothetically, ma'am?"

"Depends." Seraphina fired back, smirking confidently as she turned in her seat. "Will you ask properly?"

"Seraphine Dove Swan...will you be my girlfriend?" Jasper turned his head to look at Serpahina, who looked to be pondering the idea. In all honesty, Jasper thought she'd reject him, but the smile that lit up her face said otherwise.

"Obviously." She scoffed in reply, smiling still. "I'd love to be yours, Jasper Hale." She said the last bit softly, no humour in her tone. Just honesty and love laced her voice as the words fell from her mouth smoothly.

Within a second, Jasper was no longer in front of her. Instead, he was by her now opened door. She she turned to her right, she jumped in her skin, laughing. She climbed out of the vehicle and beamed up at her now-boyfriend.

"What are you doing, Jaz?" She asked before lips crashed onto hers. They were soft, and slightly warmer then the rest of his body. Seraphina instinctively kissed back, leaning closer to him and looking upwards. She wrapped her arms around his neck, he wrapped his around her waist and the two stayed in that position for a minute or so.

Their lips moved in sync, as if made for one another. Cheesy, but the cliche's are the best.

The need for air became a necessity and Seraphina slowly pulled away.

"Why didn't we do this earlier?" She asked and Jasper chuckled, taking her hand in his and walking her towards his room. Seraphina immediately fell onto Jasper's comfy bed, staring at all the book shelves.

"Can i get like....a dresser or something? I really feel like i'll be staying here a lot." She mused, and Jasper chuckled, making his way towards the bed, as well. He didn't have a need for a bed, he didn't sleep. But Jasper had one after he met Seraphina.

She was his mate, he was hers. They were destined to be together from the start. 

hey how was it?
