Hey – So I decided to start a Stephanie Plum Fanfic. It will be a BABE, but it won't happen straight away. I don't own anything, standard FanFic Statement – I'm just borrowing the characters for my story. I hope you enjoy and let me know what you think!

Will they have their happy ending?

Chapter 1

Hi I'm Stephanie Plum and I caught in the middle of two extremely good looking men. One more so than the other - Batman and Joe Morelli. I was born and raised in the Burg, Trenton and currently working for my cousin Vinnie as a Bounty Hunter. I've had an on and off relationship with Joe for a long time and our first encounter was when I was 6 and we played choo choo in his father's garage. I'm currently in an off period with Joe and have been sharing my time between both Joe and Batman AKA Ranger. Joe said a few weeks that I needed to make a decision between the two of them, that doesn't stop in from dropping around a couple of times a week for beer, pizza and the game and leaving with giving me an orgasm. Joe works for Trenton Police Department and has an amazing ass. Ranger on the other hand works contracts for the government, owns Rangeman and works as a Bounty Hunter for high dollar skips.

Tonight will be the night of nights – Batman asked me to dinner, he knows Joe has asked me to make a decision which means he is probably going to tell me to go back to Joe again and then disappear into the wind like last time. Ranger doesn't do relationships so he has told me time and time again, but for some reason I love him but I also love Joe just not in the same way. I don't have the guts to tell Ranger this and here I am currently stuck watching a skips house waiting to make my move while I search for answers to my confusing love life. Suddenly there is movement in the front window of the skips house and I deicide it is time to make my move as he is walking out of the house. "Hi, I'm Stephanie Plum from Vincent Plum Bail Bonds and your FTA – it won't take long if you come with me and I can get you rebounded". The skip is a runner he pushes me over and makes a run for it and takes off in my car. I shouldn't be surprised but my pocketbook is sitting in that car. Fuck – what am I going to do now. I walk into the skips house and borrow his phone and call Lula for a ride.

Lula is one of my best friends. She has a heart of gold but is a bit crazy, and has an on and off relationship with Rangers second in Command Tank. She loves Cluck in a bucket and use to work as a former hoe before becoming a filing clerk for Vinnie. Lula pulls up in her red firebird and I jump in. "Damn Steph what happened to your car?" I just shake my head and told her about what happened with the skip. Fortunately for me my cars never last long it will be only a matter of time before it blows up and the TPD come find to tell me where they found my car – not that it was worth anything it's just bounty hunting doesn't pay well if I can't bring the skip in and my rent is due so I won't be able to afford another car for a while I guess it is time to head to my parents and pick up Big Blue. Lula pulls up to the curb out the front of my parents house and my grandma is out the front. I thank Lula and hop out and head inside. My mother is ironing like crazy, I wonder what has happened. "Stephaine why can't you get married and settle down with Joe, your grandma is making me crazy talking about becoming a bounty hunter you need to stop this so she will too", Helen Plum informs her daughter. I just nod my head grab a slice of cake and walk out the door telling my grandma to behave on the way out. What can I say I'm not in the mood for the drama plus I need to get ready for dinner with Ranger tonight.

I get home and Joe is sitting on my couch drinking a beer I wonder what he wants and I need to get ready so I need to get rid of him. "What are you doing here?" Joe just looks up "Cupcake I notice your driving big blue what happened to your car there was no calls to the TPD about another one blowing up". I nod my head and tell him what happened with the skip and tell him to leave. "Cupcake I love you, choose me already, I've had enough of this. It wasn't a hard decision to make". "I'm stick of everyone telling me what to do – Get out Joe. I'm having dinner with Ranger. I don't know what will happen. I will let you know. I love you both, at least give me time to work it out once and for all and say goodbye". Joe just nodded his head. "I love you cupcake", Joe says as he walks out the door.

I head into the bathroom and hop in the shower while thinking about the decision I need to make, I know it is going to be Joe. Ranger has made it clear he doesn't want a relationship and that his love comes with a condom not a ring but I love him so much more than Joe. I really don't want have to give him a way. I hop out and put on a sexy LBD with some Black Fuck me Heels. I finish my hair and makeup and look in the mirror. Damn I look hot. I hear someone coming through my front door and turn around.

"Babe". Batman is here, and damn he looks good in all black suit I just want to jump his bones. Maybe after dinner as a farewell present. Ranger pushes me against the wall and kisses me. As he pulls away he grabs my hand "Let's go babe – reservations are awaiting".
