Drabble: You

Jan 29, 2014 07:10

Fandom: Twilight
Pairing: Jasper/Seth
Prompt: Your fingertips across my skin/The palm trees swaying in the wind/Images.../You sang me Spanish lullabies/The sweetest sadness in your eyes (“Almost Lover” by A Fine Frenzy).

Jasper stood in the doorway of the house on Isle Esme watching Seth. It has been a year since Akela and while his little wolf had gotten a little better, he was still horribly depressed. Jasper’s own feelings echoed his lover’s; it had been and was torture to nearly have a baby only for him to be…still born. He sighed and stepped out onto the pool deck. His skin shown slightly in the sunlight but thanks to an invention by Carlisle he didn’t sparkle as he used to.

There were plenty of places other than Isle Esme that they could have gone without all the sun, but Jasper thought Seth needed the sun to make him feel better. Seth hadn’t argued with Jasper when he had suggested the getaway and since they had arrived he had spent nearly all day out in the sun. Thanks to Carlisle’s invention, Jasper had been able to enjoy the sun with him.

“Hey darl’n, I brought you some sweet tea.” Jasper set the glass on the table between the longue chairs. Seth turned his head toward Jasper from where he had been staring at the water of the pool. He gave his lover a weak smile of thanks before closing his eyes back.

Seth moved to the side, making room for Jasper to sit next to him. Jasper took the invitation and sat next to Seth on the edge of the longue chair. He rested his hand on the warm skin of Seth’s back for a moment before he raised his hand and started tracing little patterns and words on Seth’s skin. A breeze made the palm trees around them sway. Jasper heard Seth sniff and his eyes went from the patterns he was tracing to Seth’s face where he saw a tear slip from Seth’s closed eye across his nose.

“Seth…”

“I know,” Seth said sniffing again. “I just keep seeing him, so small but beautiful. He was beautiful wasn’t he Jazz?”

Jasper had to clear his throat of its tightness before he spoke. “He was.” Akela had had Seth’s nose.

“I wish I knew what was wrong with me,” Seth whispered. Jasper wanted desperately to assure Seth that nothing was wrong with him, that everything happened for a reason, though they may never understand that reason. Instead he started to sing.

“Usted hace todo lo bueno …Todo lo maravilloso…Que la gracia de mis días…Y el cielo se llena mi punto de vista…Vamos a cantar para siempre…Usted hace todo lo puro…Todo lo bello…Usted me hace ver que lo único que es cierto…Es usted…”

Seth listened intently. He hadn’t caught on to learning Spanish yet, but he could pick out a few words from Jasper’s song and it made his heart clench at the love he felt for his imprint. He sat up and wrapped his arms around Jasper’s neck. Jasper dipped his head and kissed Seth’s shoulder.

“Te amo mi lobito,” he whispered.

A/N: The song Jasper sings is a Spanish lullaby that I found via a Google search. It is “Tú” by Jaci Velasquez. The translation, to the best of my researching abilities is: “You make everything good/Everything wonderful/You grace my days/And heaven fills my view/Lets forever sing/You make everything pure/Everything beautiful/You make me see the only thing that's true/Its you/Its you”. Please forgive me if this is incorrect.
