Ever since Natalia's accident with Bella, a member of the Cullen family was always with her. Jasper would always be up in Natalia's bedroom while she was having dinner with her family, Alice joined the student council, and Edward wouldn't let Bella be alone with her. Someone was always with her in school. Natalia was never alone. It took a few days of convincing Carlisle to let Natlia go back to school. There were only a few days before graduation and Natalia didn't want to spend it at home.

When Natalia got home from school one day she was told that her Abuela was coming into town. Natalia couldn't wait, she was so excited. Natalia missed her grandma. When she took her trip to Mexico they hung out most of their day. Natalia also knew that her upcoming trip would be one of the last times she ever saw her grandma.

Natalia and Jasper had been spending the whole Saturday in her room. Graduation would be on that Monday. Natalia wanted to take a minute and just breathe. Things were going to change. She would be leaving for 'college', Bella would be turning, and Natalia's death will be announced after a while. She was going to miss Forks, and miss her friends that she met along the way.

Her mom went to picker her grandma up from the airport which left Natalia, Jasper, and Ella all alone.

"I don't even get why Abuela is coming all this?" Ella complained. SHe was sitting on the couch, flipping through channels on the tv.

Natalia just rolled her eyes. "I am graduating high school you know?"

Jasper just laughed at the sister interacting.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm graduating eighth grade but you don't see Abuela coming for me?"

"Ahh I get it. You're jealous. Besides you're supposed to pass eighth grade."

Ella just let out whatever under her breath. Jasper and Natalia locked eyes and laughed.

"What about your grandparents Jasper?" Ella asked him.

Jasper smiled at her. "They are dead."

Ella's eyes grew big. "Both sets?"

"Esme was adopted like us and Carlisle parent's died of old age."

Natalia tried to keep her facial expressions neutral. She knew that some of what Jasper was saying was true but they both knew the real reason their 'grandparents' weren't coming.

"Abuela will be more than glad to adopt you and your thousands of siblings." Ella tells him.

Natalia threw a pillow at Ella's face. "Don't be rude. You know you love it when Alice and Rosalie come over."

Ella let out a gasp. "I wasn't! I was just telling the truth."

Jasper just told her thank you hoping for the discussion to end. The three just sat and watched tv waiting for Stella and her mother to arrive.

Just as the sun was about to set, everyone hears a car pulled into the driveway. Natalia gives Jasper a big smile and grabs his hand to join the family outside. Stella was getting luggage out of the car's trunk and Ella was hugging on her grandma.

"Abuela!" Natalia moved Ella out of the way and gave her grandma a hug.

When Natalia pulled away her grandma looked at her with concern.

"Mija, you are freezing! Stella you need to buy this girl a coat." Abuela lectures her daughter.

Stella just shook her head. "She has millions."

Abuela wasn't listening to her. She was looking right past Natalia and looked at the boy standing on her daughters porch. Natalia took notice of this and waved for Jasper to join them.

"Abuela, meet Jasper. My boyfriend." Natalia wrapped one of her arms around Jasper's waist.

Abuela looked him up and down. She saw that Jasper was smiling at her the whole time. Jasper would feel her emotions as she judged him. He could've easily changed them but he knew how much this impression meant to Natalia, so he stayed out of it.

"Nice to meet you ma'am." Jasper held his hand out for her to reach.

"Are you from the south?" She asked him. Jasper always had a hint of a southern drawl in his voice.

"Yes ma'am. From Texas."

"Nice to meet you." Abuela gave him a warm smile. Natalia grinned, she could tell that her grandma liked Jasper.

Stella told everyone to get into the house so she could start dinner. Natalia and Ella showed their grandma their rooms. Natalia showed her grandma a picture that Bella had taken of all her friends at school. Abuela pulled Natalia over to sit on her bed together.

"Javier is not going to be happy about this Jasper boy." Abuela told her.

Natalia frowned. She wanted to tell her about how Javier ruined her life but then the secret would be out. She hated Javier.

"I don't care what Javier thinks." Natalia told her.

Abuela just shook her head. "Well, he won't stop asking about you. He said that you won't return his calls."

Natalia stood off her bed and walked over to the closed door. "I don't care about him. I don't like him. He just simply filled the loneliness I was feeling for a few days, that's all."

"Okay then. Jasper is very handsome."

Natalia blushed. You could hear Stella call everyone to dinner. Natalia and Jasper both just picked at their food, knowing they would have to throw it up later. Natalia was happy. All of her favorite people were in one room all together. Now all she had to do was graduate.
