Jaspers's face fell a bit when she said that she had not seen Bella, but the fact that she stayed a moment longer, that she didn't just turn and leave, left him feeling hopeful. He was wise enough not to get too close to her, it was dangerous for both of them, but having a human help him in this small way, having this small voluntary interaction with them, made him confident that he would one day be stronger around them, much like the rest of his family was.

"It's rather concerning, isn't it, how people can just vanish in the blink of an eye. You can have someone who you care about a great deal with you one minute and the next...well who knows where they go." He preferred to think that Bella was back home where she had come from with the Edward of her time. He had to think that.
