-Alice's Point of View-

. . .

I keep reliving the day I had the most horrible vision of my life.

...

I have the vision, the picture frame falls from my hands and Jasper picks it to reveal a perfect symbol of our marriage, broken.
...

I have loved Jasper Whitlock since the day he walked into the diner back in 1948.

He was a strange and intriguing being and I knew from that point on I would be in his life forever, and he would be in mine forever, better yet I had seen it in a vision.

Oh and how much better that vision was.

Now I find myself sitting in my new room staring up at the ceiling knowing fully well Jasper is in his own bedroom upstairs.

He is hurting, but no where near as much as me.

From the moment I had the vision of him falling in love with another girl I knew that I had to remove myself from the equation. So I told him I was going to ask for a divorce. Of course he assumed it was because of someone else and when I said yes he naturally assumed I meant another guy.

I shook my head and smiled a little, silly boy, as if I could love another as much as I've loved him.

When I said yes that there was in fact another person it was because I saw him truly happy in the arms of another GIRL, in a way I've never even seen him happy.

I know with time I will move on and maybe even find my own pure happiness, but for now I will sit back and watch as Jasper embraced this new path in his life.

I got up and went to leave my room. When my hand made contact with the door knob I froze as a vision suddenly hit me:

...

'Jasper smiles as he helps the girl, she smiled in return and it's then that they first lay eyes on each other, it is in that very moment that they fall in love with each other but they are too wrapped up in other emotions to notice at the time. But from that moment on Jasper will always remember everything about that day, the way her hair fell past her shoulders, the glint in her eyes, the slight sway of her dress with every movement, the curve of her smile, every light freckle on her cheeks. It's the moment the girl becomes obsessed and can't get him out of her mind. True Love.'
...

I pull out of my vision slightly out of breath and panting.

I don't need air but in that moment I found my chest tightening as my body wanted to double over.

In an instant Edward is in my room and by my side.

"Damn it Alice, why won't you just tell him already?" He growls as he holds my now rocking frame.

If I could cry I would be sobbing.

"He will meet her today." I confess sadly.

"You can't keep doing this to yourself." Edward sighed as he rubbed my back, "if you've seen it, it's going to happen, why don't you get out of the house for a while?"

"I'm going to have to learn to deal with it eventually."

"Eventually, but not today, it's still too soon for you." He responded in his usual brotherly fashion. "Now go, I'm going to need a new school wardrobe to accommodate this Texas heat."

"That's true." I sadly agreed. "I suppose I should get everyone a new wardrobe while i'm at it."

He nodded, "maybe Renesme would like to go."

I shook my head, "I think I need to go alone."

He hugged me once more before he left my room. I got up and changed outfits, a black dress with large black sunglasses, it matched my mood.

Never in a million years would I have thought I would be ending my marriage just because I saw my husband with somebody else.

I began to wonder, what if I wouldn't have said anything. What if Jasper and I would have stayed together, surely the girl would have assumed we were together and left him alone. What if my vision only spurred me to break up with him, essentially giving them the green light.

Had I ruined my own marriage by not fighting for my husband?

But how could I not act on my vision, especially when I saw him so happy, carefree even.

I grabbed my purse and ran out of the house without so much I as a word to anyone, I knew Edward would fill them in if anyone asked.

. . . . .

Having done major damage to my credit card I actually did feel a tad better.

Well to be honest all it did was stopped me from thinking about Jasper and this mystery girl, but I digress.

I had a majority of my purchases being shipped to the house, but as I was exiting I couldn't help but buy a few things here and there for myself.

I placed the arm loads of bags in the passenger seat of the car and set off back home.

When I pulled into the driveway I parked right behind the cute purple Jetta.

I knew it was her car, and I killed the engine. I contemplated about staying in the car or running off into the forest. But curiosity got the better of me.

You see, much like with Bella and Edward, I saw this girl coming into Jasper's life. Unlike with Bella and Edward I have not seen a face or heard her voice or anything, every time it see her all I can see is her reddish brown hair flowing down her back.

I grabbed a couple of the bags off the seat, so I would have something to mess with when I meet her, honestly it's so my hands would be too full to shake hers.

I opened the door and heard a light laughter.

"Thank you Mrs Cullen but I am going to have to decline, my father is having a bar-b-que tonight for some of his clients and in his words 'it's imperative that I'm there.' But I honestly would much rather take you up on your offer."

It was her, her voice was soft and smooth and had just the right amount of Texas twang to it. Her words were kind, honest, and further more inviting as they made me step into the sitting room.

"Some other time then," Esme smiled, "oh Alice dear, you're home."

And there she was, it was the exact image I've been seeing over and over. Jasper casually sitting on a sofa as he mindlessly smiled at every word the girl spoke, and there was that now infamous back of hers, with her perfectly long locks shrouding her shoulders and then some.

Jasper jumped up from his seat and the girl stood as well, she turned just as Jasper came to her side.

She is stunning.

Her long reddish brown hair framed her gorgeous heart shaped face, her Hazel eyes seemed warm, this was probably due to her soft smile. She was about the same height as myself maybe an inch or so taller, her figure seemed flattering and damn her for having on such a cute sundress while I looked like I had just attended a funeral.

"Alice this is Emmaline Harper." Esme said gently, everyone but the girl could pickup on the awkward vibe and I knew Jasper was feeling my anger and jealousy right now.

"Hello, please don't let me interrupt anything." I said as cooly as I could and even mustered up a smile.

"Oh I should be going, Thank you all for having me over and thank you for the beverage it really was delicious." She eloquently replied.

"Anytime dear, and thank you for the beautiful cake, it really was a kind and thoughtful gesture." Esme countered.

Damn her and her southern charm.

"I'll walk you out Emmaline." Jasper spoke as he motioned for her to go.

My heart sank and Jasper gave me a worried look, I turned my head so I wouldn't meet his eyes and with a final goodbye for her, she and Jasper disappeared out the front door.

"Alice dear." Esme sounded worriedly.

I ran as fast as I could up to my room and locked the door behind me.

'Not now Edward, please, I just need a moment.'

I knew he would hear the silent request and informed the others.

I tossed the bags onto the ground before I threw myself onto the new bed and hugged a pillow for support, I put on some music in the hopes it would mask my mood from Jasper as well as lift my spirits.

Like it or not this was happening and I needed to learn how to accept it.
