    …Could…Alice…have….died…?

    What Jasper? What is it!? talk to me :[

  3. April, love. says:

    This seems like a very sad quote guys, maybe he’s talking about not being able to bear himself when Bella’s around and how he can’t understand how Edward can fall in love with a human?? Idk im just really bummed now :[

  4. billieB says:

    i know what happend?

  5. Christine says:

    Haha, I think he’s feeling Bella and Edward’s anxiety and excitement before the wedding. That or HE’S getting overly emotional about it. Haha.

    WHOOO!!!!! Only 4 more days!

  6. Jo says:

    so he has to bare an emotion that he can’t understand? i think this one is the most confusing so far.

  7. Faolin says:

    Well crap! These quotes are killing me!

    Poor Jasper. Somehow I don’t think he’s being sarcastic or joking or anything. Either someone around him is suffering extreme emotional stress, or he’s talking to Bella about something. Jasper seems like someone Bella could talk to very easily, although I don’t think that’s the case. This quote is definitely meant to throw us off. Big time.

    Whatever it is, Breaking Dawn comes out Saturday!!!! *dies*

  8. Bree.J says:

    Another stressful quote…

  9. Christine says:

    PS, I don’t think it’s that sad. Stephenie said that they are out of context.

    BUT-if Alice died…I think we all know that Stephenie might have to go in hiding.

  10. I am soooo scared right now, Please stephenie if you see this do not let anything happen to alice!!
    I am panicking!!!

  11. Kat says:

    ……….. what…………?

    If SM kills Alice off, then I’m done. That’s it. πŸ™ This breaks my heart a little bit.

  12. Emily M says:

    What a depressing quote… πŸ™

  13. The REAL Mrs. Edward Cullen says:

    O.O TEARS =**(

    OHMIGOD Jasper! OMG….

    Ok this one has me desperate….

    xoxo, *bites nails*

  14. Sarah L. says:

    OMG I cant tell if this is serious or hes joking?!?! I hope hes joking…

  16. spooky says:

    The way the Cullens speak is a bit old fashioned. perhaps he is using the word “bear” as in ‘to carry’…although, I can’t imagine anything that would be too heavy for him to carry???

  17. Jenbarn76 says:

    Not Dead… maybe Vampirenapped by the Volturi???? I don’t know I am grasping at straws.

  18. RAY says:

    idk, i hope nothing happens to alice. sure, my favorite couple/characters are emmett and rosalie, but i love all the cullens.

  19. Rebecca says:

    The first thing I thought about was Jasper feeling Bella’s ease in front of blood (when she’s a vampire) because as far as I can remember that’s the one thing he’s ever had problem with….

  20. Sandra says:

    If Alice dies….
    Omg, Stephanie Meyer will face my wrath πŸ˜›
    Alice dying is the only possibility I can seem to think of. I guess another possibility is that he drank human blood or something by mistake and he can’t bear the diet πŸ™ I hope not, I wouldn’t want Jasper to leave.
    But I’d rather that than Alice dies….

  21. Chloe-An Australian Twilighter says:

    If Stephenie Kills Alice were all gonna be pretty angry lolz.

  22. Emerson says:

    OME!
    Stephenie did not kill off Alice! She could not have done that! NOOO!
    maybe he’s being sarcastic or something.. yeah, that’s it.,

  23. alex says:

    hi.. have you already read on EW???:

    Exclusive! Stephenie Meyer Reveals a Spoiler

    http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20215228,00.html

    !!!!!! hurray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    team edward!!!!!!!

  24. Caitlyn says:

    It obviously has to be something really unexpected because vampires don’t get confused easily. Perhaps Victoria is back? Or maybe Charlotte, Peter, and Maria decide to stop by!

  25. Lauren says:

    Victoria is dead.
    … hmmm…. im not sure……. i hope its not anythign too bad!!

  26. Michelle C says:

    Maybe it doesn’t have to be a sad thing.
    I think that maybe Bella doesn’t react like a normal Vampire when she’s transformed.
    and Jasper has a fit.

  27. Carissa says:

    According to EW.com, today a spoiler was revealed and one part of it is that everyone wins, including Team Jacob. So I wouldn’t worry too much over this quote.

  28. Kristen says:

    maybe he’s feeling someone else’s emotions that are umbearable….I really hope so because the only other alternative I can think of is that…..i can’t even say it…the unthinkable happens….alice dies. NOOOOOOOO!!!!!

  29. Chelsea says:

    Oh, I hope nothing happens to Alice!!!

  30. Paola says:

    omgsh!! what if Alice didn’t die but instead left wit the volturi to apeace them!!!

  31. Natalie says:

    This one is probably completely different from what it sounds. SM is not J.K. Rowling; she wouldn’t have a whole bunch of main characters die. I refuse to believe that!

  32. Alexis says:

    If Bella changes into a vampire, I think it could be during her change, and Jasper is feeling all the intense emotions… and maybe her emotions are hard for him to understand.

  33. Erin:) says:

    OMG WHAT IS IT!!!!!

  34. Sammykins says:

    Ha ha… That Stephenie Meyer… She’s going to make me a crazy person.

  35. Megan says:

    I refuse to believe that something is wrong with Alice. I can’t even think of that. Ugh.
    I agree that Jasper might be feeling someone else’s emotions, and these emotions are both confusing and overwhelming.
    This quote makes me very nervous…

  36. Alexandra says:

    please dont hate me for this cause im
    TEAM EDWARD.
    but wat if hes feeling bella’s feeling and something happened to edward?
    this quote is making me panic!!

  37. swimchick1357 says:

    Helloo!! It doesnt mean that Alice died!! It could be during Bellas change because the venom is spreading and it feels like ur on fire… it could be a good thing meaning that bella will be changed!

  38. Alexandra says:

    if it is someone elses feelings that he’s sensing, then they’re feelings must be pretty damn strong!
    please excuse my language

  39. Ashley says:

    omg, this is awful, i cant bare to keep having these kind of quotes thrown at me when the book is only 4 more days away, if alice dies, i have no idea wat in the world i will do….

  40. Natalie says:

    *lets imagination run wild* Maybe Jacob is having an internal conflict, fighting his instinct to tear vampire Bella into pieces with his love for her. Maybe Jasper starts freaking out all Harry-Potter-and-his-scar-like, and because Jacob may be about to attack Bella, Alice or some one says “Jasper, you have to help [calm him]! Can you understand me?!” And Jasper could be like “I can’t understand! I can’t bear this!” That is the most far-off of all the theories here, but I just had to share it. =)

  41. Morgan says:

    Has anyone considered that Jasper is not feeling someone else’s emotions? He is capable of his own! I think that he finds out that vampire Bella is “born” with an aversion to blood. Jasper feels bad because now he is the one with the blood problem. In eclipse he was betting that Bella would slip up a lot and Edward said that it would make Jasper feel better so that he wouldn’t be the worst one.

  42. Jenny says:

    I like Morgan’s idea

  43. Natalie says:

    Yeah, but Morgan, why would Jasper freak out so much? he’s been the weak one for so long. just because Bella isn’t weaker then him dosn’t mean he can’t bear it.

  44. Jessa says:

    Morgan’s theory has been one of my theories all along πŸ™‚

    I think he’s probably freaking out so much because he’s been hoping so much to not be weakest (think about it, it must be killing him!) and Bella’s got this NATURAL aversion to blood.
    Well, it would be so unfair, since he and the other Cullens have struggled with it every single day for decades to get to where they are. The others may be vocal about it too, but Jasper suffers most.

    Woah. Lots of writing there!

    LoveLove

  45. m says:

    It mentions in the spoiler that everyone wins even team jacob, but i think, when it says that, that it is reffering to the fact that team jacob may be mad that bella doesnt choose jacob but they are lucky SM is writing a fourth book at all, it then goes on to explain how the saga was almost wrapped up into only three books. So personally, i disagree with carissa, i would read less into the spoiler since it seems as if you are relying on soley that to determine the books outcome, and the rest of you, i wouldnt rely so much on the quotes! Dont you understand, SM chose the craziest quotes from the book and took them way out of context, and the spoiler, well, the only real point of that was to say that bella and edward were getting married. You have to realize anything SM says at this point is simply to confuse us and make us want to buy the book more so that we can understand. If i were you i wouldnt disappoint myself by making theories, usually the author turns out to be a lot more creative then you think, or simply goes in the opposite direction which most often leads to disappointment especially when your team jacob and you read too much into the quote from the spoiler “everyone wins, even team jacob”, what if that was reffering to the fact that the fourth book was written and not the fact that jacob really has a happy ending, wouldnt that be a disappointment??

  46. Nat says:

    I don’t think this is about alice… I think that jasper is simply undergoing a lot of emotions all at the same time and its confusing and hard to sort through… I’m sure this is fairly common for a big group of vampires or even werewolves…

  47. TheNerd says:

    If Alice died I think Jasper would be crazed, as in not able to get out a sentence. Especially one so normal as that. I would think that if something killed Alice he wouldn’t be talking but killing the jerk that did it.

    If SM kills any of the Cullens she will have to go into hiding.

    Lotta twilight!
