43 | ALWAYS, JASPER |

Dear Rory,

I hate myself for leaving you.

It is the worst thing I—anyone—has ever done in the world. I'm a liar. I had hoped you would see through my lies, but you believed them. How could you believe that I don't love you? Because I do. I love you more than myself, more than anyone whose ever loved anything in this universe. I will never stop loving you.

Always,
Jasper

Dear Rory,

It's been two days since I last heard your voice. I couldn't stay with my family anymore. I don't deserve their support. Not when I ruined everyone's happiness. I can't get the image of your tears out of my mind—it haunts me.

I'm sorry for everything.

Always,
Jasper

Rory,

You have my heart and my thoughts. I tried to go back to Forks, but you had left. I don't know where you had gone, but I assume it was by your choice and I'm not stupid enough to approach your mother. I tried to come back to you, but I should have known better. There is no mistake made in the entire history of the world than leaving you. I hope to find you again, before it's too late.

Love you always,
Jasper

Dear Rory,

I got your letter today. I don't think you meant to send it, but I'm glad you or whoever did. I deserved every word, but I never deserved you. You deserve everything the universe has to offer and more.

I thank you still for our time together, however brief and tragic it was. I will always have those beautiful memories in my unending days. Please forgive me for any ruin I have caused, I always just wanted to protect you and make you happy.

Always yours,
Jasper

Beautiful Rory Aden,

It is the day of your eighteenth birthday. I promised you I had planned an extravagant affair all those months ago, and if you don't mind, I shall describe how this day should have gone if things were different.

First, I would let you sleep in, because if you loved anything in the world, it was sleeping. The sun would shine just right, soaking you in a golden glow, and I would awaken you with a kiss, my Sleeping Beauty. You'd "attempt" to hit me, but surrender as always. I would serve you breakfast in bed, fresh Chick-Fil-A, which I would have retrieved from Seattle while you slept. We would have lunch with your mother and the Blacks, all while Billy glares a hole in my head. I would take you and all your closest friends and whoever else you wanted out on the yacht, where we would celebrate with lots of dancing, presents, and cake. We would go to our spot afterwards and star gaze until the only star left would be the sun and you.

I wish I could go back and change everything, but I accept my mistakes. I'm still sorry and I still love you. Happy birthday soulmate.

Always,
JHW

My love,

There is never a second I don't think of you. I don't believe for a second that you might be dead, otherwise how am I still alive? You're somewhere out there, you must be. Alice is worried that I'll do something drastic, but I promised I would help with Edward first before looking for you. I'm so sorry, sweetheart.

I will find you.

Always,
Jasper

Dear Rory,

I found you. As always, you surprised me. I would have never expected or predicted to find you a newborn vampire apart of the Volturi Guard.

I had always been cautious of entering Italy where the Volturi resided—it was risky, especially when we were together, but to discover you had been changed into a vampire, is something I cannot fathom. Seeing you in that throne room elicited two emotions out of me: elation and sorrow. The former due to me being beyond happy that you weren't gone from this world as I feared, the latter of my sorrow is not the matter of you not remembering who I am, it is the matter of you becoming a vampire.

It was something you never wanted for yourself and that kills me. You had no choice to join our world and I am more sorry than ever before to have had a hand in further ruining your life. I do hope you find happiness as a vampire—it's not so bad. From what I saw in that throne room, you are beyond spectacular—I've always known that at least. I might deduce that Alec Volturi, the witch twin, was someone you had grown close to in your last moments of humanity if he had saved you. It is evident you are more beguiling than I had thought for you to have ensnared the emotionless shadow. He is in love with you, yet so am I.

I hope to make amends, to make up for my mistakes, and possibly reconcile, or at least, start anew because I miss you greatly, and I cannot imagine going on without trying again.

Always yours,
Jasper Hale

She didn't understand the physics, but somehow, Alice had gifted her over a hundred letters in the bag, all written by the one and only, Jasper Hale. Rory read each one just as many times as there were letters.

She remembered her own pain, and Jasper's had been just as deep. Through his letters, Rory had sobbed (as a vampire she was incapable of shedding tears), she had laughed, and she had fallen even deeper in love with her soulmate.

They had both made mistakes and hurt each other, but despite it all, Rory and Jasper loved each other.

And there was nothing more powerful than love.
