It's been forever since I've written fanfiction and my writing has definitely matured! So I'm going to try my hand at it again! So reviews are appreciated!

I grunted as I felt the jolt of my horse hit the ground, returning back to my position as the horse cantered towards the next jump. Right before I felt my horse leap over the double oxer I went into my two-point position. I internally winced when I heard the back hoof of my horse just barely clank one of the bars.

Shit.

We were getting docked on that.

I took a deep breath as we approached the last jump. It was designed to look like a three foot tall white fence. I went into my two-point right before Calypso leaped over the fence. I let out a breath as we cleared the jump, finishing an almost perfect show.

Slowing my horse down to a walk along the rail before stopping, looking back at the judge and smiling as I waited to be dismissed from the arena. I nodded back at the judge when she gave me the go ahead.

Nudging Calypso into a walk, we made our exit from the show arena and into the practice arena, smile still spread on my face. I let out another breath and relaxed my face as I dismounted and walked over to where my trainer and family were waiting. I patted Calypso in the neck and told her she had done a great job.

"Nice run Bells!" My dad patted me on the back before turning his attention to Calypso, "You too girl!" He chuckled as the dark chestnut bay Hanoverian nudged his shoulder.

"I noticed the little knock on the second to last jump. If you had waited just a hair sooner to push her into that jump and that could have been avoided." My trainer, Emily commented

Emily had been my trainer for the past year and we had grown a close bond over time. She was only a few years older than me, but has been working horses since she was just a little tyke. Her fiancée, Sam, stood by my father and Calypso, petting the horse like it was his job.

"I think Calypso here looked just purty out there, right Charlie?" Sam asked, right before spitting some dip onto the ground and kicking some dirt over it.

My mother, Renee, just shook her head chuckled. "Compliment Calypso all you want Sam, we're not selling her to you." My mom hugged me over the fence. Calypso whinnied as if she was backing up what my mother had said.

"I better mount back up, this girls about finished with her pattern, and she's he last one." I said, stepping onto the step stool to mount my 16'4 hand horse and making my way over to the entrance gate.

"Well look who we have here. Tell me Swan, when are you going to live up to your last name and become beautiful?" I inwardly groaned when I heard the snarky, snobby voice of my one enemy in this sport. Tanya Denali.

"When are you going to stop living up to your spoiled brat stereotype and actually be respectable. However, that does require that you keep you legs closed." I replied, not even wasting my time in looking at her.

Tanya was one of those equestrians who had a push-button horse and didn't touch the horse until a few days prior to showing. She also always got the latest in show gear and show outfits. While I still wore the same couple of breeches I had since I stopped growing a few years back and had a couple of show jackets that I wore for my different shows.

My my parents had managed to save up and buy me a pair of super expensive Ariat zip-up show boots. Other than that, I didn't own a stitch of show clothing over 100 dollars.

I heard Tanya humph and then felt her presence leave. Thank goodness, I can only handle that stuck up slut for so long.

"I wouldn't listen to her, you're definitely beautiful enough to live up to having Swan as a last name. I'm Alice by the way."

I was startled when a small pixie-esque girl mounted on a small light bay Morgan. It was the perfect size for her.

"Oh...uhm...thanks? Oh I gotta go." I said before quickly nudging Calypso back into a walk and into the middle of the arena.

Tanya gave me a snobby look that screamed "I'm better than you." I just sighed and gave her a sickly-sweet smile back as I lined my horse up with the other girls.

I sat stop my horse with a smile as they announced the placings.

"And your Grand Champion, with an almost perfect pattern, ladies and gentlemen is Bella Swan riding Calypso!" My smile grew bigger and I leaned forward in my seat to hug Calypso. It felt good to win and to knock Tanya down a few notches.

The other riders left the arena as a ribbon was placed around Calypso's neck and I was handed a second ribbon and trophy.

I thanked and shook the judge's hand before Calypso and I left the arena. Tanya was no where to be seen in the practice arena, my guess is that she was back at her horse stall screaming at her mother to buy her a better horse.

"Congrats on winning Grand Champion, Bella!" I heard the twinkling voice of the pixie-like girl Alice as she passed me on her way into the show arena.

It looked like a beginners jumping show had been set up in the arena.

"Thank you and good luck!" I smiled and nodded at her before I dismounted Calypso and led her out of the practice arena, to my awaiting groupies.

As soon as we were out of the gate, Renee attacked me with a hug. "Mom, you know not to do that around horses." I scolded her, hugging her back with one arm, holding onto Calypso's reigns with my other hand.

"Sorry, I know, but I'm just so proud of my little Bella!" Renee exclaimed as a few tears escaped her eyes.

Charlie, who was never good at stuff like this, gave me a quick hug before letting go. "Good job Bellsy. You're mom and I are gonna go grab something to eat and watch a couple more shows so you can relax." Charlie said rubbing the star on Calypso's forehead before and Renee took off.

"Well, I just have to say good job knocking Tanya down a couple notches." Emily giggled and high-fived me as her, Sam and I walked back to the horse barn Calypso's stall was in.

Emily shared a mutual hatred for Tanya Denali, as well as her older sisters, Kate and Irina, whom Emily showed against. They were all spoiled sluts.

"It feels good to knock the queen off her pedestal." I said, causing Emily and I to giggle as we walked.

I placed a flake of hay in Calypso's stall and made sure her water buckets were full. After Emily and Sam had helped take the braids out of Calypso's mane and tail and also bathed her, the two decided to go meet up with some friends for the night.

I sat down in one of the folding chairs that sat in front of both the horse stall and my tack stall. With a sigh I whipped out my iPhone and checked all my notifications.

Someone cleared their throat as I was in the midst of checking out the photos Emily had posted of my show on Facebook. I immediately looked up and was shocked to find Alice standing there with a tall, handsome cowboy with blonde hair and blue eyes.

"Hi Bella!" Alice smiled and waved at me. "This is my boyfriend Jasper, we were just about to go watch my brother in his contesting show and I saw you sitting alone and figured you might like to come with?" She had this all knowing look on her face.

"Oh, uhm, sure." I said standing up and tucking my phone into my pants pocket. After my show I had changed into a pair of worn out jeans, a t-shirt and some Corral western boots. "Nice to meet you Jasper." I said, smiling and shaking his hand.

"Likewise Miss Bella." He said in this incredibly sexy southern drawl. Alice was lucky, I would love to have a cowboy like him to call mine.

"Lets go! I want to wish Edward good luck before he rides. I just know you'll love him Bella! Trust me, I'm always right!" Alice was overly ecstatic as she tugged on my hand to get us moving along.

I follows Alice and Jasper back out to the show arena. In the middle of the arena were three barrels set up in a triangle. The practice arena was full of cowboys and cowgirls whose horses were itching to race around those barrels.

"Edward!" Alice squealed as we walked towards a tall boy whose back was turned to us. He was wearing a Stetson, a plaid shirt, wranglers and chaps.

I internally licked my lips at the wrangler clad ass. My eyes widened when he turned around and I was met with a striking pair of emerald green eyes.

Oh holy shit. He's fucking gorgeous.

I knew I was fucked at the exact moment our eyes connected.

Well, how was it?

i know it's kind of short! And please excuse any grammatical errors I am typing this up on a phone! I'm doing my best!
