"You're going home today!" Renee practically skips into the room with a very glum Charlie walking behind her.

It had been about four days and the past two days she has been able to finally keep the minimal amount of food the doctors had wanted her to eat down.

"So are you." Olivia tries to smile but it looks more like a grimace.

"You know, I can stay longer if you'd like baby." She coos coming around to sit on the hospital bed.

"No."

"No."

Olivia and Charlie both say at the same time. Renee scoffs at Charlie and the man shrugs and gives Olivia a wink that makes her quietly giggle.

"Ugh, yeah yeah yeah." She waved them both off. "I better be off soon then my plane leaves in three hours and it's an hour drive itself just to get to the airport."

"I'll miss you mom." Olivia sincerely replies. She hadn't seen her mom since she ended up in the hospital last time. She almost forgot what it was like having her mom around when she wasn't trying to shut everyone out.

Renee kisses the girls forehead and affectionately rubs her cheek. "I love you too, baby. Please rest and get better."

"I will." The girl nods.

"And please... speak to your sister." Olivia rolls her eyes. "She's been a wreck since you were admitted."

Olivia scoffs. "She's a wreck and yet I'm the one in the hospital."

Charlie stands away from the conversation not wanting to get involved but Renee holds her hands up in surrender. "Okay, okay, I get it... but whatever it is that got between you two just remember your twins and sisters... no matter what you're each others, other half."

"Something like that." Olivia waves her off. Before Renee can continue Charlie lowly whistles. "Look at the time, you're gonna miss your flight if you stay any longer."

Renee's eyes widen and she glances at the clock. Standing up she begins collecting her stuff and gives Olivia a final hug. "Oh gosh, hes right. Please call me every hour, goodbye my baby."

Once the door shuts Olivia and Charlie both sigh of relief. "I love and missed her so much... but she's a lot."

"You're preaching to the choir, Liv. Preaching to the choir." He chuckles.

"You sure you're alright to walk up the stairs?" Charlie worriedly questions as they enter the home.

Olivia softly smiles and grabs her dads hand. "Dad... I know I scared you and I'm really sorry. But it was malnutrition, not a broken bone."

"Severe malnutrition, Olivia.... I would've preferred a broken bone." He groans.

Olivia sadly smiles. "Me too dad."

Charlie sighs, kissing her forehead and heading toward the kitchen where he knew his other daughter was. "Be down for dinner, please."

Once he's out of sight her smile drops and she slowly makes her way up the stairs and into her room. She closes the door behind her and slowly walks into her room. She glances around and takes a seat on her bed facing the door. "Welcome home." She whispers.

She slightly jumps at the sound of wood creaking behind her. Spinning around the only thing in sight is her open window. She hesitantly turns back around and although she was half expecting it she still jumps when she notices him.

"Jasper." She groans in annoyance as she holds her racing chest.

"I'm sorry." He apologizes.

"Why are you here?" She questions flatly.

"I asked you if I could speak with you later." He says. He has a calculating look as he eyes her up and down.

"And you took my silence as a yes." She sarcastically mutters with a shake of her head. 

He grabs her hands before she can blink and pulls them toward his chest. "Darling..." 

Olivia's breathing catches in her throat as she stares at their joined hands. "I.. I can't." 

"Let me make it up to you." He whispers pleadingly. "Life without you has been worse than anything else I have ever been through in my life." 

Olivia rips her hands away from him and scoffs. "And you're the one who put us in this position. You left and only came back because Edward told you all to come back." 

"I hurt you!" He slightly raises his voice and she flinches. His face softens and he sighs. "I hurt you, Liv. I didn't know how to cope with that. You don't understand what it's like to love something so much more than anything else in the world but to also have this feening addiction, this unstoppable urge that even for a moment... Can pass over the love I have for you for a few drops. Like a drug addict." 

Her shoulders slump. "It wasn't your fault Jasper. I understand your blood cravings are harder to control than others because you can feel all of theirs. But what I don't understand is instead of staying and fighting for me, you just left. That was all you." 

"What if no one is there to save you from me one day?" He questions. "What if one day it happens again and I kill you?" 

"It was my choice to put myself in that position, Jasper." Olivia groans. " You took my choice away."

Both of them stay silent, unsure of where to go from here. Before the Cullens left they had healed apart of the girl she never thought could be fixed. When they left they tore it all to shreds, but the pack... They stuck with her and never stopped trying. 

"Alice tells me that you've been around the pack a lot." Jasper whispers. 

Olivia grimaces and turns her head the other way around. She didn't think that he knew Paul had imprinted on her, she wouldn't doubt that Edward would know but she didn't think Jasper would be this calm if he had known. She had slept with Paul just right before the cullens had returned. 

Her head was spinning. Paul was her best friend, her person. He made her feel calm and safe. Most importantly, he never left. 

Jasper made her feel like she could be herself, like she was unstoppable. Like she could jump off of a cliff and he would catch her. He and Edward were the first people who got her to open up. 

"Yeah." Olivia finally responds. "Yeah, I have." 

Jasper watches her body language. The way she had turned away immediately after he mentioned the pack. How she had gone so deep into thought she was clenching he hands. Her heart had sped up. "Darling?" 

"There is... something you should know." Olivia takes a seat on the bed and places her face in her palms. Jasper steps closer to her and slowly nods. "Paul.. I- I am Paul's imprint." 

Jasper freezes. His pupils dilate and his mind whirls. Paul Lahote imprinted on his mate.

She was his mate. 

Are they together? Was that why she's been around the pack so much?

"Jasper."

Olivia hesitantly looks up and notices Edward in the doorway watching the blonde intently. "Jasper, lets go." 

Jasper's body begins to shake and he grits his teeth together, not moving. 

The wolf was going to steal his mate. 

Edward grabs his forearm. "Lets go." 

Jasper rips his arm from the man and speeds in front of Olivia and she jumps back. "Don't do that!" She harshly whispers as she holds a hand to her chest. "Jasper, maybe you should go with Edward... Take some time to think about things. To calm down." 

Edwards body is tense. Ready to intervene at a moments notice. Jaspers thoughts were going to fast for him to focus on one thing. 

Jasper does something neither of them are expecting. Edward expected him to lash out, to lose control. Olivia expected him to leave. 

Jasper drops to his knees in front of her, pleadingly. 

Olivia's lips part as she takes note of the venom pooling in his eyes, never to fall. 

Edward slowly steps out of the room, keeping an ear out incase anything goes sideways. 

"Jasp-" 

"Please don't leave me, darling." He rasps. 

Olivia stares at him in shock, unsure of what to do or say. 

"Please don't leave me." He begs. "I will do anything, I will spend the rest of my life making it up to you but don't love him. Please don't love him." 

"I love him." She says the words that he thought would kill him. "But I am not in love with him... He is my greatest friend, Jasper. It-it's not like that. But... you should know that we um- we slept together. We were drunk and I think I owed it to him to explore that possibility but it meant nothing to me romantically." She blurts. 

Jasper's eyes fall closed and he unnecessarily takes a deep breath in. 

Olivia blinks and he was gone.
