Dating Jasper Hale would include: (+ some random Jasper headcannons that basically turned into an entire fanfic)
If you’re dating Jasper Hale it’s because he tried to hate you and you never gave him a chance
He didn’t quite realize it but he’d been looking for you for over a hundred years
Finds it amusing how much you love his hair
(Secretly loves when you play with it)
Again if you are dating Jasper its because he did everything in his power short of killing you to drive you away from him and you just would not give up
It wasn’t like with Bella and Edward, blood singers and soul mates and star-crossed lovers. You just saw something in Jasper you liked.
Competitions to see who could get a higher average in the classes you shared
History class competitions get particularly interesting (it’s his favorite subject)
He finds himself getting ridiculously protective
Like you ride a bike to school and that makes him nervous (because bikes aren’t ?? like safe at all?? and humans are FRAGILE???)
Convincing himself that of course he has NO CHOICE but to start driving you around
“Well, believe me, I’m beyond flattered that you’d wanna spend all that time with me, Jasper-”
“Bikes aren’t SAFE–you know what, forget I asked.”
“It’s got reflectors and everything. I wear knee pads.”
“It’s Washington, Y/N. There’s bears.”
When he picks you up the next morning you continually refer to the ride as a ‘first date’
It just becomes a running joke that the two of you are dating and you start linking arms with him in the hallway
It would be annoying if you weren’t so darn CUTE
You only call him Jasper when you’re angry
All other times he’s either Texas or Boyfriend
Arguing with him constantly about things he doesn’t really care about (he just likes talking to you, even if its arguing)
Eventually he becomes so used to the idea of you two being together that he finds himself getting jealous when he thinks you like other people
He bottles the feelings up until they burst out in a confrontation literal months after he discovered he had them
It would be one of the many fights you have over him not telling you what he wants, mostly because he doesn’t think he deserves it.
Loves kissing you anywhere but on your lips
Cheek, forehead, knuckles, shoulders
(Likes kissing you on the lips a lot too)
Is actually really good at telling stories when he gets into it???
He knows some old ghost stories that chill you to the bone
On bad days you just walk into his house and lay down in his lap
He recommends books for you to read
He loves a good scary story (classics like Frankenstein and modern stuff like Stephen King) but he also really really loves Soft books you know like sometimes you catch him reading I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings or Perks of Being a Wallflower
Doesn’t like telling Civil War stories
Because fighting for the Confederacy was only the first in a long line of things he’s done that he’s not proud of
Before Alice found him he was in Europe for World War II
He was on the wrong side of history in his human life
And fighting for Maria wasn’t exactly a moral triumph
So he figured if he couldn’t help what he was now, he could at least put it toward a good cause
In some museum archive in Poland there are records of what appear to be animal attacks on Nazi soldiers allowing prisoners to escape
He has a dumb hipster polaroid picture of the two of you that’s practically dissolving because he never goes anywhere without it
cards it through his fingers when he’s tense
odds of him having it in his hands increase 100% if he hasn’t seen you in a few days
You wear his Cullen bracelet everywhere
its like his version of you wearing his letterman jacket
He feels responsible for you and extremely protective but he tries so hard not to seem overbearing and controlling because he knows what it’s like to be in a relationship where you don’t get a say and he’s scared to death of treating you even close to how Maria treated him
He has a bite mark on his upper arm/shoulder thats deeper than all the rest
he’s ashamed of it, and you don’t even see it until you’ve been dating him for over a year
You run your hand over it and he winces. It still hurts.
“Lots of people bit me, y/n”
“Yeah, but you’ve gotta remember this one, it must have hurt like hell-”
“Maria. It’s from Maria.”
You never ask about it again but you kiss it every time you get the chance
Basically you would fight Maria with your bare motherfucking hands
making out on the motorcycle
daytrips on the motorcycle
making out in the back of Emmett’s jeep when the motorcycle is not available
Emmett catching you guys making out in the back of his jeep
he comes out during school to grab something and catches Jasper underneath you
“What–man, c’mon guys, we all sit back there! Go find a broom closet or a movie theater like normal teenagers.”
Basically Jasper gets to be a kid with you in a way he never really got to before
You make him watch your stupid TV shows like Parks and Rec
you immediately start calling him Ron Swanson
probably has a minor internal panic attack when you tell him you’re applying to colleges because he’d never want to hold you back but there are places that he can’t follow you
this is also the first time he’s really forced to deal with the fact that you’re a human with a human life and human desires and there are things you’ll find out in the world that he can’t ever give you
you propose to him that night
short, sweet, simple wedding
(probably telling Lauren and her snide pregnancy comments to go fuck herself)
You planned the honeymoon (with Alice’s help, of course)
Flying to Virginia, renting a car, and driving out into the country
Jasper watching the intermittent forests and fields fly by with increasing curiosity before you take a sudden turn onto a gravel drive that leads up to an old farmhouse
“Are we … spending our honeymoon milking cows?”
“Appalachian State is only a thirty-minute drive from here, and I’ve already been accepted. You’ve got woods to hunt and privacy so you don’t have to hide. Carlisle helped me sign the contract a few weeks ago. It’s ours.”
Jasper turns you on the night you graduate from college. You are 23.
He’s spent the last four years fixing up the house. He likes the work and he’s even getting better at controlling his hunger, which is good because you’ll need his help over the next couple of months. You guys have a dog and a cat. Jasper prefers the cat.
You guys heard about Bella’s pregnancy, but Jasper didn’t wanna risk hurting you, and you decided anyway that children were not for you. And if they were, you’d find a way.
Over the next fifty years, you two start a family like Carlisle did.
Jasper likes being able to give newborn vampires a good start, and he knows from experience how to help them with their hunger
You jokingly refer to your little coven as the Lost Boys
You can think of nothing better you could be doing than helping people like Jasper make lives as vampires instead of becoming monsters.
The two of you against the world.
