Welcome to Sunday, folks! The hangover has landed -- suffice to say last night was amazing and I have apologise for the lateness of this post, so I will keep it short and sweet just like our Darlin' for the day! Yes, I am not alone in my suffering, I am joined by the wonderful Musings of Akyria!
You may know Musings of Akyria as one of the sassy ladies over on the awesome the Twi-Muses blog, but Akyria also writes some excellent Jasperlla fics for all you Jasper/Bella fans -- with plenty of Major Whitlock to boot - yes, Akyria knows ALL the ways to get me hot and bothered ;) So be sure to check out her work and show some love!
I'm going to hide now, I'll leave you in Akyria's more than capable hands ;) Enjoy!
Hi ya’all I hope your having a great Sunday so far. Clurrabella contacted me on Friday evening and I was away from my computer watching a DVD with my hell spawn umm I mean children. I squealed, then I giggled, and then I fell out of my chair! I barely missed the table by the way. I was up on my feet, laughing in shock and in just awe! Let me tell you I startled my kids in the process. All I can really say it is a huge honor to be a Darlin’ for a day.
For those that know me, know without a shadow of doubt as to who my favorite Jasper is. I post about him as well as write about this aspect, really that’s the only Jasper that I can seem to write. Oh hello Major, sir. We seem to picture the Major as dark and dominant. To where there is hardly any southern gentleman left, none of the gentleness he at times exhibits within the books. It isn’t very often that I stray from that. However today I am. I think there is much in that southern man that catches the eye, that makes you just sigh in contentment.
I had a few stories that I have that the Darlin’s had not rec’d as of yet. Even that being said it was difficult to choose between them. So I decided on a complete story that has a sequel. I choose this fic because I felt that I should give you a story that YOU would like to read. Don’t get me wrong I love it too!
Even saying all that I had a bit of a performance anxiety, yes even I on occasion freak out. It’s the Darlin’s how can I not be? I highly respect the Darlin’s. I would probably not have started to write or started a blog if it weren’t for them. Some people fan girl over an author and I fan girl over a group of ladies. Thank you ladies for having me.
Today I am going to tell you about Time Heals by abbymickey24
AU New Moon, Edward leaves Bella, never to return. Jasper and Alice have a falling out and divorce. Jasper returns to Forks to apologize after a year has past, Bella is immense pain she is alone and lonely. Does this sound familiar? This is how mant Jasper/Bella stories begin. However this one is a bit different.
Jasper is racked with guilt over his actions on Bella’s disastrous eighteenth birthday party, he seeks forgiveness. Bella is alone, in pain and seeking companionship. What makes this story different is this. A one Jasper Hale sits in a fucking tree! A tree for the better part of years. Why you wonder? Yeah you guessed it a manipulative pixie by the name of Alice.
Jasper does finally show himself, striking up a friendship with a Bella that had lost everything. He brings joy back into her life.
One of the best things about this story is that there is no wolves, no friendship with Jacob. I find that her Bella is very like Twilight canon Bella to be. Kind, unselfish, loving, very forgiving, as well as the New Moon pain that she is in. Her Jasper is just as I would think Jasper could be without Alice at his side, she kept both characters as close to canon as she could while still having it be non-canon.
The dozy is how manipulative Alice has been is what shocked me the most. It wasn’t that she made Jasper sit in a tree for so long. It was why she made him not reveal himself to Bella in the first place.
This little snippet is taken from Chapter Eight.
Stopping in front of the open doors at the back I asked, "Are you going to explain why we are here now?"
"Look," He said pointing toward the sky.
As I looked up I caught sight of a bright colored something in the sky. When it got closer I was able to see it was actually a person with a parachute attached and I panicked.
"NO, NO, NO, NO." I said shaking my head while backing up.
He stepped behind me, stopping me with his hands on my shoulders. "What happened to trying new things?"
"That was before I knew you expected me to throw myself out of a fucking airplane. Jasper I can't…"
"Hey. You're not allowed to say can't, remember?" He interrupted.
"Yes, but…"
"Bella you said it yourself. You know I won't let you get hurt."
"I also recall you saying if you can help it, but what happens if my chute doesn't open. You can't just come grab me, plus the impact from landing if you did would probably kill me."
"First off, I wouldn't have to come grab you because I'll already be strapped to you…"
"What?" I asked quickly, turning around to face him.
"We will be jumping out together."
"How?"
"I'm certified to do tandem jumps."
"Of course you are." I said rolling my eyes.
"And second," He continued ignoring my comment, "The impact probably wouldn't kill you although it would be hell to explain the big dent I put in the ground and how we were both still alive."
"Not helping."
"Sorry." Not looking at all like he meant it.
Taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly I said, "Fine, let's get this over with."
The romance is slow, it doesn’t happen right away. Which I think is just perfect. A bond takes time to form. So go read it, and leave her so love.
