《A Witch Thing | Jasper Hale x Reader》Chapter 6
Advertisement
By the time they finally got back to the house, the entire family had to come help bring in the bags because, if Alice and Rosalie weren't as good as storing the bags in the back, they could have filled two cars worth of bags in the back.
Y/N wasn't sure if she'd even get to wearing most of those clothes by the time she died, which is saying something since witches had a very long life, and with the right favor with the spirits, possible immortality.
Carlisle walked with Y/N, holding two arm fulls of bags as he said, "Shopping with Alice, are you? You got lucky this time. They once had to take two cars because Alice felt she had to renew her wardrobe."
Y/N shivered as she continued to bring the bags in. When the last bag was placed in Y/N's room, she stared at them in exhaustion, "This is going to take forever..."
Jasper leaned on her door frame and shrugged, "Good thing you have vampires to help you." She shook her head, "No, I couldn't ask you to help me. You've all done so much, I think I can take care of this on my own."
Jasper walked in, "You don't have to ask." He flashed her a little smile and picked up the first bag. Y/N bit her lip in thought for just a moment before getting to work with Jasper. They both had everything out of the bags and laid out on the bed in about ten minutes. They were sorted out by shirts, pants, skirts, dresses, and so on.
Alice walked into the room, ready to get to work and stopped short at the door. "What on earth are you doing?!"
They both turned to face her. "Sorting." They told her. Alice shook her head, "Well, you're doing it wrong! You're supposed to sort by color, type, and fabric type!" She rushed over, opening another door that Y/N thought to be the bathroom and was really a large, large closet.
She was a blur as she began putting hangers on everything and laying them out separate. She stopped and said, "Now, everything needs to be sorted by their color. Chop, chop. I'm going to get more hangers from my room."
Alice left the room and Jasper mumbled, "I'm surprised she has free hangers." Alice shouted down the hall in her chirpy voice, "I heard that!"
Y/N and Jasper laughed together and got to work sorting the clothes out. It took an hour or two, but the work was finally done and there was nothing else to do, Alice admired her work and left Y/N with promises of a dress up day to go through all of her clothes.
She watched as Alice left the room, half terrified, half grateful that she would have Alice in her life now. Jasper chuckled, "Yea, you're going to have to get used to that..."

Y/N shrugged with a laugh, walking over to her closet, "Yea, I'll never get used to that." She started going over everything to see if she could actually memorize where everything is. Jasper walked over, a little too quietly. He touched her shoulder and Y/N jumped a little. "Sorry, didn't mean to frighten you."
Y/N shook her head, "No, it's not you. I get really jumpy."
Jasper started, "My school's prom is this week and I was wondering if you wanted to go with me."
Y/N laughed nervously, scratching the back of her neck as she said, "I mean, would they even let me in?"
"Yeah, the school isn't really good at keeping students out of prom. You could come with us and, even if they did stop us, we'd be able to get you in." Jasper explained.
She bit her lip and nodded, "I would love to go."
Jasper smiled, "Great. Um, fair warning, you might end up going back to the mall for dress shopping..."
She mocked fear and laughed. "Hopefully, I'll live." Jasper smiled and said, "I'll be in the living room if you need me." He left her to herself and she wandered her room to see what else was hidden in it.
A knock came to her door. She turned around quickly, giving a smile to Carlisle as he took a step in, a book in his hands. "Hi." She greeted.
Carlisle smiled as he walked over, "Hello, Y/N. I had this in my office and decided to keep it. It's a book on magic, I thought it was just some sort of fictional thing to read when you got bored, but going back to it, it looks more real than I thought. I was wondering if this could help."
He handed her the large book. The spine was a little worn out and the edges of the book looked a little ragged, but the pages seemed in perfect condition, almost as if the cover was just for show.
Y/N smiled and thanked Carlisle, "Thanks. I'll see if it works. Thank you." Carlisle nodded and let her be.
She sat on her bed, the book in her hands. She opened to the first page, reading the shiny, goldeny silver gradient text on it.
'Read and beware
The pages are no lie
The words in this book
Are not for human eye
This is very real
There is no need to jest
Open this book
And prepare for a test'
"Test?" She asked herself, slowly flipping to the next page. On the next page was a riddle, a strange one that she did not quite understand.
'Centuries old, a story untold, only the true will know and behold. Great magic we are from, and greater we become, for better or worse others are better than some. You have three guesses, three tries, be quick, be wise, or what you will read will all be lies.'

Y/N bit her lip as she thought of the riddle. At the bottom of the page was the number three written in the same golden text as the rest of the words. She guessed, "Spells."
The three at the bottom of the book became a two, a symbol that the guess was incorrect. She thought again, hoping to get the answer right. After a moment of thinking, she spoke, "Familiars?"
The number went down again, the one on the page slightly threatening. She thought again, nervous about whether she'll get it right or not. "Great magic... better than some... centuries old..."
Suddenly, it hit her, "Centuries old and a story untold... Of course!"
She took a breath and spoke clearly, confident in her answer, "The Sun Children."
The one disappeared and she was scared she'd gotten the answer wrong. The book suddenly snapped shut. She dropped the book, startled by the action. It fell to the floor with a loud thud and Carlisle and Jasper suddenly ran up to her room.
"What happened?" Carlisle asked. A shimmer seemed to peak out from the pages, followed by a white flash. They looked at the book, not sure whether they should stay away from it or finally pick it up.
Y/N gave a look to Carlisle and Jasper before slowly walking over to pick up the book. Jasper muttered, "Be careful..."
She bent down, picking up the book slowly and carefully. Y/N opened the book and, read the text at the top corner of the new page in the book.
'Grimoire of Y/N Y/L/N.'
There was a thumb print underneath the words. The two vampires at her side looked over her shoulder and at the book. Carlisle held his hand out, motioning to hers. She gave him her hand and he looked between the thumbprint on the book and her own. "It's the same one." He said.
She looked back at the book, "Cool." She continued to flip to the next page, a note scribbled on it. She read it aloud, "'If you are reading this, it means you are a witch that solved the riddle on the first version of this book. Well, that's a relief. If you didn't get that riddle solved, you would be reading fake spells and things approved by knock off human roleplay stuff. Thanks for getting it right, the other stuff is kind weird and makes no sense. Here's some legitimate stuff.'"
Y/N couldn't help but laugh a little. There were some witches and warlocks who always wrote like fairytale creatures or old sorcerers, then there were others who spoke like normal people. It was refreshing to have a taste of both.
She moved on to the next page and saw a bunch of spells and drawings and witchcraft of all sorts. There were a couple spells Y/N were familiar with, but most of the spells were ones that Y/N had never even thought of, or had to think of. Her parents didn't study magic, afraid they'd be exposed and killed by the Volturi, and their old coven was very strict on the magic that was used, so no one there knew much either. Ones who wanted to learn more magic broke from the coven and joined ones that did more, but most of the witches and warlocks decided to turn away from magic to stay safe.
There were spells on different kinds of strength, familiars, if a witch had one, aging, communication, and much, much, much more. Carlisle was intrigued and Jasper was interested. Y/N, on the other hand, was absolutely mesmerized with the things inside of the book.
Carlisle, of course, was enthralled by the things written on the pages, but he didn't understand any of it. Y/N could understand, read, and even already try some of the spells, but the others required practice and more experience that she would build. "Oh my gosh. This is...amazing." she said, completely absorbed by the things in the book.
"I've never seen so many spells and so much magic before. The only thing that could come close is learning of the sacred history of witches we get on our fourteenth birthday." She continued, slowly closing the book.
"Thank you, Carlisle. This will help tremendously. Thank you so much." She said with a large smile. Carlisle returned the smile, "It's no trouble, Y/N. I look forward to seeing what you learn."
He looked at the book again, eager to see what she might get from it and turned to leave. Jasper smiled, "I can't wait either. Maybe you'll find a spell that will help you find the right outfit." She laughed and nodded, "Maybe. I can't wait to learn more about my magic."
Jasper looked at the large smile on Y/N's face, a smile of his own growing on his lips. He unknowingly took a step closer to her, whether he was drawn in by her magic or her feelings, he didn't know. But he couldn't care less. He just wanted to be close to her, around her, it felt safe and calm. He liked that about her.
He soon let her be to study her magic spells. There was so much to learn about her magic and the spells in the book and she intended to learn a lot.

It's just a picture I found one day at DeviantArt and thought that the two shown in the picture looked like how I imagined Lyle and another character to be. Simply put, it was convenient in various way and I also loved the art. From my understanding is is from a collaboration between artists Chocobikies and Pinlin. Here is a link to where I found the original http://pinlin.deviantart.com/art/Linked-456655669
