Theresa walked around the Cullen household as music blasted through the speakers.

Drink in hand (that Emmett spiked with some alcohol for her as a graduation gift) the girl watched as people she had never met before fled into the house.

Everyone wanted a peek at where the famous Cullen family lived.

She watched as people gawked at the house, but she couldn't judge them, considering she had done the same thing the first time she walked in the house. It was magnificent after all.

Theresa was brought out of her throughts as a party horn blared in her ear.

The girl reached up and grabbed her ear, turning to face Emmett, angrily.

"What the hell dude!?" She yelled, taking the party horn from him and placing it on the table behind him.

"You feeling that Dirty Shirley yet?" He asked the human, grinning at her.

Theresa only glared at the vampire, "No, not yet."

Emmett stood next to the girl, leaning his arms on the table behind them.

"That's too bad" Emmett said, making a clicking sound with his mouth, "I needed you drunk for the question I'm about to ask you."

This made Theresa look over at him, "And why's that?"

"I have a secret, but I think you'll blab to Bella about it" He said causing Theresa to roll her eyes before scoffing, "You act like I haven't kept a huge secret from literally everyone for months."

Emmett shrugged, "You got a point."

Emmett leaned closer to Theresa and whispered in her ear, "I heard from the grapevine that Edward is thinking of proposing to Bella, properly."

Theresa's eyes widened as Edwards head whipped around and saw the two, Edwards eyes meeting hers.

"That means that-" She said, still looking at Edward.

"She'll want to be changed soon" Emmett confirmed with a smile, thinking this was the best thing ever, but Theresa thought differently.

Theresa handed Emmett her drink quickly, "I think I'm gonna be sick", before quickly running towards the bathroom.

"You didn't even have that much to drink!" Emmett yelled as the girl opened the bathroom door and rushed in, slamming it behind her.

She held onto the sink, her grip turning her lnickles red, as she tried to calm down.

"You okay?" A familiar boyce asked, causing Theresa to scream and jump away from the sink.

She turned around to see her mate, fully dressed, in the shower.

"Jasper!?" She yelled, confused.

"What happened?" He asked, still standing in the shower as if it's normal.

"Why are you hiding in here?"

"I'm not a party person."

"So instead of going to your room you hide in the bathroom" Theresa said, pausing as she shook her head, "That everyone's been using!?"

"My family would know to look for me in my room, not here" He said simply, shrugging before continuing to speak, "Plus there was only one couple in here. They just made out and left."

"Jesus Jasper" The girl said as she ran her hand over her face.

She looked at him once more before moving the shower curtain away from him.

Jasper looked at her, surprised and confused.

Theresa just sighed and rolled her eyes before giving him a glare, "Move over" She demanded as he immediately moved over to the other side of the shower.

She sat down in the tub of the shower, bringing her knees to her chest and hugging them with her arms.

"I'm not ready."

"Ready for what?" Jasper asked as he kneeled down in front of the girl.

"Ready for all of this."

"Bella is going to marry Edward, and then she's going to be one of you. And I'll either have to lie to Charlie, the man who has taken care of me and treated me like one of his own children when he didn't have to, and tell him that she's dead, or changed, or leave him and let him believe both Bella and I are dead." Theresa said, letting out a breath of air that she didn't know she was holding in, after telling Jasper how she felt.

"No one ran this shit by me" Theresa said, playing with the rings scattered across her fingers.

"If it makes you feel any better," Jasper said, causing Theresa to look at him instead of her hands, "Alice said it won't be for a few months."

Theresa glared at him, before attempting to get out of the shower.

"Hey!" Jasper yelled, grabbing her hand in his, stopping her from leaving the shower, "I'm sorry, alright?" He said.

Theresa could tell as she looked at him that he really was trying to make her feel better, but they both knew nothing would stop Bella from saying yes to Edward's proposal, especially since they now graduated and Bella would be going off to "college" in Alaska.

"You know, I don't get the rush" Theresa stated before sitting back down in the tub, "I mean, I know she thinks she'll get old and people will notice the age difference, but I wouldn't want to change now" The girl said, truthfully, "I mean, I haven't reached my peak yet" She said, causing Jasper to look down at his feet and shaking his head, all while laughing lightly.

"Tess" Jasper said seriously, causing the girl to turn her attention from her hands to him once more, "I told you once and I'll tell you again," The two locked eyes, "You'll have the protection of my body and soul, human or not."

The human stared at the vampire for a moment. He had a look in his eye that she's seen before. Prom night. When he first offered her his body and soul as protection.

Theresa shook her head, letting any anxious thoughts leave it, as she reached up and grabbed Jaspers face in her hands, pushing her lips against his.

Jasper was surprised, but nonetheless, kissed his mate back.

It had been weeks since their last kiss and the two found themselves missing each others touch.

Jasper found his arms linking around Theresa's waist and picking her up, causing her to squeal, he smiled into the kiss.

He then sat her on his lap, his head against the shower knobs.

Theresa unconnected their lips, leaning her forehead on Jaspers, trying to catch her breath, as Jasper used one of his hands to move a piece of hair out of the girls face.

"I promise you baby, you've reached your peak" Jasper said, causing the girl to smash her lips against his once more. The force causing jaspers head to hit one of the knobs, causing the shower to turn on, and water pour on both of them.

Theresa pulled away and gasped at the feeling of the water falling on her, but Jasper just laughed and connected their lips once more.

The two didn't stop kissing until a knock was heard in the bathroom door.

The two pulled away from each other and Theresa leaned her head against Jaspers chest as he yelled, "Occupied!"

He went to put his hands under Theresa's chin, to bring her lips back to his, but was stopped by another knock.

"What the hell?" Jasper murmured under his breath before gently taking Theresa off of his lap and getting out of the shower.

He quickly opened the door, meeting with Edward who had fist balled up, ready to knock again, and Bella, stood behind him.

"What?" Jasper asked his adopted brother, water falling from his golden locks, a puddle starting to surround him from his wet clothes, causing Edward to raise an eyebrow as he lowered his fist, "Alice had a vision."

This caused Theresa to turn the water off, standing up and getting out of the shower, clothes also soaked.

"About?" Theresa asked, causing Bella's eyes to widen, "Are you kidding me Tess!?" She yelled, causing the girl to shrug, "What?"

Bella scoffed and rolled her eyes before walking away and her arms folded across her chest, "It wasn't my fault the shower decided to shower!"
