"I NEED YOU BY MY SIDE AGAIN, Jasper. I know you still love me, and deep down you know it too. You just need a little more push." Maria said, their faces dangerously close to each other.

Without giving Jasper another second to react, Maria leaned in and caught his lips in hers.

"Hold my purse." Luna muttered, her voice low and dark.

Aurora grabbed her purse and took it between her hands as she witnesses the infamous wrath of Luna Hale.

Jasper pushed Maria away with a flabbergasted look on his face, wiping his mouth as if Maria was a virus of some kind.

"What the hell are you doing?! You think you'll get me back by kissing me?" Jasper said, his anger and shock never leaving his face.

"You'll always come back to me. I'm your first love, Jasper." Maria justified.

"And she's my last." Jasper responded. "Never in a million years will I pick you over her."

Maria's fury only got worse when she could see the unconditional love that Jasper has for Luna as clear as day. Jasper had moved on from her and Maria wasn't going to let that happen. She may not love him, but she does need him by her side.

Maria opened her mouth to say something but before she could utter another word, someone shoved her away so hard, she flew ten feet away from when she was previously standing. The brunette vampire landed on the sandy ground with a harsh thump before she quickly got up to her feet, an angry and surprised look plastered across her face.

"How's that for your 'little more push'?" Luna said.

With her Louboutin boots that Jasper gave her dangling in her hands and her skin-tight, sequin-covered, and wine-colored cocktail dress, Luna stood tall in all her glory and rage. Her crimson red eyes glowering at the brunette vampire who was about to get a taste of Luna's notorious wrath.

"Selene, listen-" Jasper said, but Luna interrupted him before he could even get on with his explanation.

"Back off, Hannah Montana. This is between us girls." Luna said, shoving her heels into his hands for him to hold it for her.

Jasper sighed. "You said you'd only use 'cowboy'." He whined.

"I'm sorry, Blonde Woody, I can't hear you 'cause I'm too busy bitching." Luna retorted before shifting her gaze back to the brunette vampire.

"So, you're the selfish, blood-sucking hag that used my naive, adorable husband to your advantage." Luna said.

A mischievous smirk tugged on Maria's red-tinted lips as she glared at the dirty-blonde vampire.

"And you're the annoying little wench that keeps his ears ringing." Maria said.

"And keeps his lips smiling, and his dick standing." Luna added, a wide, taunting smile plastered across her face.

Jasper closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Was that really necessary?" Jasper muttered when he felt the presence of his blonde friend beside him.

"No, but it's fun." Aurora said as she watched the two women intently with an excited smile on her face.

The two turned their gazes to the dirty-blonde vampire who was currently taking her earrings off.

"Selene, are you sure you don't want me to-" for the second time, Luna didn't let her husband finish his sentence as she responded quickly.

"Shut up and just hold my shit." Luna said before throwing her earrings towards Jasper, effortlessly catching it in his hand that wasn't holding her heels.

"Kick her ass, mi chica!" Aurora exclaimed, cheering for Luna which made a smirk curl on the dirty-blonde vampire's lips.

Maria made the first move and used her enhanced speed to swiftly tackle Luna to the ground. A bunch of sand flew around them as Luna's body thumped to the ground when Maria pinned her down, her arm pushed against her throat with a snarky smirk on her lips.

"You're easy to take down for a newborn." Maria said.

"You're incredibly dumb for an old hag." Luna retorted.

Luna, after speaking, immediately slammed her hand against Maria's forehead strong enough to throw her head back and send her into a few seconds of dizziness. Luna took the opportunity to flip them over and wrap her hand around the woman's neck firmly.

"Tell me, Luna, how good did Jasper look with my tongue down his throat?" Maria taunted.

Maria used all her strength to grab Luna's head and pulled it against hers, banging it forcefully causing the dirty-blonde vampire to loosen her grip on Maria's neck and giving her the chance to kick Luna off her.

"Not as good as he looked between my legs." Luna replied, sneering at the brunette vampire which caused her to scowl back.

Aurora snorted at the remark, earning a glare from Jasper.

"What? That was good! Your wife's an icon and I stan." Aurora stated before averting their attention back to the two women fighting.

Maria sprinted towards Luna and the other did the same, causing them to meet in the middle with an equal amount of strength as they held each other from the neck and shoulder. Both of them were struggling to fight off the other, and they were giving their all to keep their strength at a maximum, never decreasing even one bit to the other's advantage.

Luna wasn't about to lose the fight, not against her husband's ex-lover, if one can even call her that. She began to assess everything that she could do to get the upper hand. It seemed like being a newborn wasn't a problem for Maria, which wasn't a complete surprise since she did work with some newborns in the past. She had no idea what ability the woman has, so she didn't want to take the risk by copying her, she was afraid that her ability was as useless as her entire existence.

And that was when Luna realized, she doesn't have to copy Maria or anyone, for that matter. She still has a copied ability remaining in her that would be more than enough to take the manipulating bitch down for good. The only downside was, she could take herself down along with her.

Eventually, the tightness of Luna's grip around the woman's neck and shoulder wasn't the only thing Maria was enduring. She could feel the stinging of the slowly increasing heat radiating off of Luna's palms and she couldn't help but grimace in pain.

"You look cold. Let's get you warmed up." Luna said mockingly.

The heat emitting out of Luna's palms were leaving black marks along the brunette vampire's pale skin of her neck and shoulder, slowly spreading throughout the other areas.

Because of the unbearable pain that the woman was feeling against her cold, slowly warming up the skin, Maria couldn't help but loosen her grip on Luna, allowing the dirty-blonde vampire to flip them around, now standing back to back while Luna's hands were both around Maria's head.

A shriek left Maria's lips as she felt as if her face was being melted off due to the amount of heat being released from Luna's palms. Not only was she struggling with the blazing heat of her palms, but she was also struggling due to the fact that Luna has her head tight in her hands as she slowly pulled, her neck creating screeching noises as it made cracks on her skin.

"Off with your head." Luna whispered against Maria's ear before completely ripping her head off from her body as it became engulfed with flames.

Luna looked at the burning the body of Maria before averting her gaze to the head she was holding, seeing the terrified look on Maria's face. A smirk tugged on Luna's lips before throwing the head on to the fire.

The fire blazed bigger as soon as the head made contact with it and it reflected on the mischievous, crimson red eyes of the victor.

"Selene." Luna heard Jasper's voice from behind her, causing her to whip her head towards him, seeing the apologetic look plastered across his face.

"I'm so sorry. This wasn't how I planned our honeymoon." Jasper said, taking her hands into his, caressing the back with his thumbs.

"Are you kidding?" Luna said, a smile forming on her lips. "I just killed your ex. That's everyone's dream!"

"She's not lying." Aurora said, still not moving from her current position. "By the way, great technique on the burning touch."

Luna winked at the light-blonde vampire before averting her gaze back to her husband who was sending his friend a smile as well. Luna gently grabbed Jasper's chin and turned his head towards her.

"You left me all alone last night. So, you're gonna make it up to me by accompanying me to the 'Nightwalkers', grinding your body against mine as we dance, and having sex with me at the public restroom." Luna said.

Jasper couldn't hold back the laughter that erupted from his throat before they got ready to party at six in the morning.

─── ❖ ── ✦ ── ❖ ───

"'Jódete'?" ['Fuck you'?] Luna said, reluctant about the way she said the Spanish word.

"Sí. Buen trabajo." [Yes. Good job.] Aurora replied with a smile on her face.

The two vampires had been hanging out on the porch of the beach house for an hour after having fun at the 'Nightwalkers'.

There were indeed a lot of grinding on the dance floor and a lot of people that Luna shouted at when some vampires tried to pry open the open of the restroom that the newly married couple forced shut to do their little business.

Luna and Aurora were fast friends, simply because of the fact that they act so similar and like the same things. It was as though their brains were cloned. Both of them were even convinced that they were the real twins because Luna still had no idea how she became sisters with Bella of all people. But Luna still loved her, nevertheless.

Aurora continued to teach Luna a couple of Spanish words when Jasper appeared, sighing at the two still hanging out after an hour.

"Rory, you're stealing my wife." Jasper said as he walked up to the porch.

Luna and Aurora glanced at the honey-blonde vampire before Aurora responded.

"Le estoy enseñando a hablar Español. Vete a la mierda." [I'm teaching her how to speak Spanish. Fuck off.] Aurora said.

"Solo estás enseñando las malas palabras." [You're only teaching the curse words.] Said Jasper, who also learned to speak Spanish from Aurora.

"Ella dijo que es por Edward y Emmett." [She said it's for Edward and Emmett.] Aurora replied.

Jasper sighed deeply, but not without failing to hide the smile that crept its way into his lips. Of course, Luna would learn Spanish curse words to use against Edward and Emmett. It's a typical Luna move.

"I'm pretty sure my brain just lost another brain cell." Luna chimed in, her face contorted into a confused expression when she was watching at the exchange of the two vampires in Spanish.

Jasper smiled at his wife before approaching her and placing a kiss on her head.

"I have a surprise for you tonight." Jasper said.

Luna furrowed her eyebrows in curiosity with a smile forming on her lips in excitement.

"Is it what I think it is?" She asked, seductively.

Jasper couldn't help but let out a puff of air as he tried to hold back his laughter. "No, darlin'. We've been doing that a lot lately."

"But it's our honeymoon." Luna pouted. "We can do it as many times as we like."

He simply smiled at his wife before sitting down next to her, snaking his arms around her waist from behind as he nuzzled his face into her dirty-blonde hair, smelling her usual lavender shampoo that he adores.

"Trust me, you'll love it." He murmured, his voice muffled as he kept his face nuzzled into her hair.

Aurora glared at the two with crossed arms, not the slightest bit amused by how they treat each other in front of her.

"Estoy tan soltera." [I'm so single.] Aurora pouted, earning a cheeky smile from Jasper considering he was the only one who understood what she said.

Aurora simply rolled her eyes before she stood up and walked away, allowing the two to have the whole beach house to themselves, which was how it's supposed to be.

─── ❖ ── ✦ ── ❖ ───

Nightfall quickly came and the three vampires, Luna, Jasper, and Aurora were at a pub where many people, both vampires and humans, are seated on their tables, some at the bar, while they face the stage located at the front.

"What are we doing here?" Luna asked, her eyes scanning the place.

The pub was filled with drunken humans with more liquor in their grasps and hunger-stricken vampires satisfying their urges with glasses of animal blood.

"Well, we're here so you could perform a song for us." Jasper answered.

The statement made Aurora and Luna whip their heads towards the honey-blonde vampire, Aurora wearing an excited expression while Luna had a flabbergasted look on her face.

"What?!" Luna shouted.

"Really?!" Aurora exclaimed at the same time Luna did.

Jasper couldn't help but flinch when the two women on either of him practically shouted at either of his ears, making them ring. He sighed deeply before muttering.

"Is it possible for a vampire to go deaf?" He murmured as he tried to recover from the excessive ringing in his hearing.

"Are you telling me to sing in front of all these people?" Luna said frantically as she looked at all the people occupying the room.

"Selene, you're a really amazing singer. Why not have fun while sharing your talent?" Jasper said, caressing his wife's arms gently.

"I'd love to hear you sing! Please, sing, Luna." Aurora said, her hands clasped together as she pleaded.

Luna flickered her gaze between her husband and her new friend, hesitant about whether or not she should embarrass herself in front of all these people.

Her gaze settled on Jasper's eyes and he made this puppy dog eyes that he rarely ever does, but works like a charm when he decides to use it.

"I hate it when you're stealing my techniques." Luna complained before walking away and towards the stage.

Jasper and Aurora watched as the dirty-blonde vampire have a talk with the person behind the sound system, telling him exactly what he needs to do, and what song he should play.

Eventually, after coming to an agreement, Luna slowly stepped up to the stage with a slightly nervous expression on her face. Normally, she would just be okay with performing in front of many people. But the fact that some of these people are vampires and would probably remember this day for literally eternity when she embarrasses herself, her anxiety was increasing by the second.

"Hello." Luna said in front of the mic.

The sound of Luna's voice echoing from the speakers caused each and every person in the room avert their gaze to her, anticipating what she was about to do next.

"I'm Luna Hale, and my husband told me to embarrass myself here so, I hope I do a great job on that." Luna said.

Jasper smiled and gave a soft laugh as he shook his head. He saw Luna gave him a sneer before she gripped the microphone tighter when the music started to play.

Everyone was already intrigued when the sound of the electric guitar playing, some already tapping their feet against the ground while the others clapped and cheered to boost the woman's confidence.

"You think you know me. But you don't know me. You think you own me. But you can't control me." Luna sang.

Everyone was immediately surprised by how amazing the woman's voice was, including Aurora, causing some entertained smiles to make their way into their faces while some continued to cheer.

Jasper couldn't hide the adoring smile that crept its way to his lips seeing everyone, including Luna, having fun.

"You look at me. And there's just one thing that you see. So listen to me. Listen to me."

Everyone cheered once more as the dirty-blonde vampire hit the high note.

"You push me back. I push you back. Harder, harder. You scream at me. I scream at you. Louder, l-l-l-l-louder."

Aurora glanced at Jasper standing beside her with wide eyes and her hands covering her agape mouth. Jasper smiled at her while she jumped up and down in excitement, finding Luna's talent incredibly amazing just like everybody else was.

"I'm dangerous, I'm warning you. But you're not afraid of me. And I can't convince you. You don't know me."

Luna winked at her husband, earning a smile in return before she proceeded to perform.

"You think you got me. But you don't get me. You think you want me. But you don't know what you're getting into."

Luna was starting to feel herself the more she goes further into the song, and everyone was seeing that. Her smile was more natural and fun, her eyes were holding pure bliss, and her voice was progressing into a more confident and strong one.

"There's so much more to me. Then what you think you see. So listen to me. Just listen to me."

The dirty-blonde vampire took the microphone off its stand and bent down to hit the high note perfectly, her foot tapping as she did before jumping off the stage.

"You push me back. I push you back. Harder, harder. You scream at me. I scream at you. Louder, l-l-l-l-louder."

Jasper couldn't help but laugh, enjoying the view of his wife roaming around the place, swaying her hips as she sang with the customers. She was having so much fun and it was clear in the way she sang, the way she danced, and the way she smiled like there's no tomorrow.

"I'm dangerous, I'm warning you. But you're not afraid of me. And I can't convince you. You don't know me. And the longer that you stay, the ice is melting. And the pain feels okay, it feels okay, hey..."

The honey-blonde vampire watched as his wife started to make her way towards him, her eyes fixated only on him as her exhilarated smile turned into an admiring one.

"You push me back. I push you back."

He couldn't help but remember the memory of her pushing him out the window when he told her that she had a horrible fake Southern accent.

"You scream at me. I scream at you. Louder. Louder."

Flashes of the plenty of times Luna had shouted at him and made his ears ring popped like a slideshow in his mind due to the lyrics she had sung while she stared lovingly at her husband.

"Louder. Louder. Louder. Louder. Louder. Louder. Louder." She sang as she backed away from her husband, enough space to do multiple headbangs with every word she sang, her hair somehow beautifully flying around as she did.

"You push me back. I push you back. Harder, harder. You scream at me. I scream at you. Louder, l-l-l-l-louder."

She proceeded to run around the room, dancing, as she made her way back to the stage, having a clear view of everything, including the perfect golden eyes of the love of her life staring at her lovingly.

"I'm dangerous, I'm warning you. But you're not afraid of me. And I can't convince you. And I don't have to..."

Luna and Jasper stared straight into each other's eyes as the dirty-blonde vampire sang her last lyrics.

"I think you know me."

Her eyes never left Jasper's as the music slowly ended and the cheers of the customers, as well as Aurora's, echoed throughout the pub. Everyone was clapping, most of them were actually on their feet.

The two remained staring at each other, the rest of the world seemed like it was falling away. The others were blurred, the cheers turned into muffled, indistinct noises, as they saw and hear nothing but each other.

Without another thought, Jasper made his way towards the love of his life, stepped up on the stage, and pulled her against his body before crashing his lips against hers.

"Yes!" Aurora exclaimed and cheered for the couple up the stage with her hands in the air as everyone else did the same.

Both Jasper and Luna smiled into the kiss as she pulled him closer to deepen the kiss, feeling everything fall away and there was just nothing but the two of them.
