— AGE CHART —
Edward is the oldest. He is six years older than Emmett. Emmett is six years older than Alice. So, logically, Edward is twelve years older than Alice. Jasper is three years younger than Emmett, which means he is three years older than Alice. Rose is inbetween - she's just one year younger than Emmett.

When She Smiles - The Backstreet Boys
She keeps her secrets
In her eyes
She wraps the truth
Inside her lies
Just when I can't say
What she's done to me
She comes to me
And leads me back to paradise
She's so hard to hold
But I can't let go
I'm a house of cards
In a hurricane
A reckless ride
In the pouring rain
She cuts me and the pain
Is all I wanna feel
She'll dance away just like a child
She drives me crazy
Drives me wild
But I'm helpless when she smiles
Oh, when she smiles
She smiles ...
Maybe I'd fight it if I could
It hurts so bad
But feels so good
She opens up just like
A rose to me
When she's close to me
Anything she'd ask me to
I would
It's out of control
But I can't let go
I'm a house of cards
in a hurricane
A reckless ride
In the pouring rain
She cuts me and the pain
Is all I wanna feel
She'll dance away just like a child
She drives me crazy
Drives me wild
But I'm helpless when she smiles
When she looks at me
I get so weak ...
I'm a house of cards
in a hurricane
A reckless ride
In the pouring rain
She cuts me and the pain
Is all I wanna feel
She'll dance away just like a child
She drives me crazy
Drives me wild
But I'm helpless when she smiles ...
When She Smiles — PROLOGUE
June 1st, Saturday 2002 - 2:11 PM — Third Person POV
"I hold?" the tiny boy asked, and his little, pale hands reached forward, clasping and unclasping as he grinned. Tiny blue eyes sparkled from beneath shaggy, blond hair. "I hold baby?"
Carlisle Cullen nodded, moving toward his son's best friend, three-year-old Jasper Hale. The tiny boy had tagged along to the hospital, as he'd been with the Cullen's on an outing when Esme had gone into labor. Now, two hours after the birth of six pound, nine ounce Alice Mary Cullen, both boys wanted desperately to see the little girl who already had everyone wrapped around her tiny, pink fingers.
"Here," Carlsile murmured gently, and he leaned down beside the chair that Jasper was sitting in. The little boy's feet dangled over the edge; he grinned, swinging his legs back and forth. "Hold your arms like this, and support her head."
Jasper nodded, and his face was glowing with pride as he stared down at the tiny creature in his arms. Newborn eyes opened, and Jasper's own eyes grew wide as he stared into the baby's bright, blue gaze.
"Pretty," he announced, resting a hand on baby Alice's tummy. He glanced up at Carlisle and grinned yet another toothy grin. "Pretty baby."
Carlisle nodded, smiling at the gentle little boy.
"Very pretty," he agreed, and he ran a hand through Jasper's shaggy hair, coaxing yet another grin from the little boy that barely ever smiled.
"I love this baby girl," Jasper whispered, and he leaned down to place a soft kiss on Alice's forehead. "I'll love her forever."
Carlisle's smile grew. "You do that," he whispered back, and blue eyes met soft brown. "Forever, all right? I'll hold you to that."
With still yet another happy smile, Jasper nodded, wiggling in his seat as a light flush lit his pale cheeks. "Yes, sir!"
Baby Alice squealed, and reached out to grab Jasper's fingers in her tiny hand. She held on tightly, and blue met blue once more. Jasper kissed her once more on the forehead, and as his rosy lips met Alice's soft, baby skin, the tiny boy knew that he would never break his promise to this angel's father.
How could he ever not love her?
It was an impossibility.
Hello! This is the prologue of Alice and Jasper's story. ^_^ I think the first few chapters are going to be flashes, little scenes of theirlives leading up until they're a little bit older. Then the drama will come, and there will be lots of it. Bet ya can't guess ...
NOTE: I know it's impossible for a three-year-old to fall in love. But remember in Twilight? "I've been waiting for you," Alice said. Now ... all they have to do is wait. ^_^ Also, sorry it's so short - but it's a prologue. Those tend to be short. Please put this on your alerts list! The next chapter will be out SOON!
See You SOON!
Please Review! ( I accept Anon. reviews, too! So you don't need an account to review. However, Anon. reviewers will NOT receive a sneak peak! )
NEXT CHAPTER:
"I'll keep the thunder away. I'll never let it hurt you, all right?" the little boy declared proudly, and his intense blue eyes met those of the little girl that had wrapped him around her fingers so many years ago and had never let go.
REMEMBER TO REVIEW! IF YOU DO, I WILL SEND YOU AN EXTENDED SNEAK PEAK OF CH. 2!
