A/N A little background on this new story. It is a little bit of adventure; a little bit of humor. Romance of course; but you will have to wait for the sex. The regular cast of characters are in the story. The story came around when I mixed up Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and the twilight characters in my head. Give it a chance and keep reading I think you will enjoy it and for those of you that don't know me or my stories. This story is complete and I will probably post a couple chapters a week. The only other comment I need to make was Bella needed to be physically strong in this story and not klutzy. Though it will appear once in a great while, otherwise I tried to keep the characters true to how we think of them from Twilight.
MY THREE GODFATHERS
Chapter 1
EPOV
Jasper, Emmett, and I met in CIA rookie class right after graduating from high school and became instant friends. We have been the best of friends for eight years. It's March at our house in LA; we just got home from a case and we were all relaxing with Coronas on the back patio by our fire pit.
Emmett asked, "Hey Edward, are you going to call Tanya now that we are home?"
"Maybe on Sunday, right now I just need to a break from all that estrogen. Our last case protecting and transporting those five sisters was brutal, too much estrogen and screaming."
"I agree, man, but Tanya is sexy to look at - the chest, the hair, and the lips," Emmett said showing me her hour glass figure with his hands.
"Emmett drop it; maybe on Sunday I'll have her over."
"Guys," Jasper said. "We have a week off in two months."
"Yes, we do," Edward said. "No commitments and sleeping in for a week."
"Well, Edward I was thinking of forgoing the sleeping in part. How about some white water rafting and rock climbing in Oregon guys? There is a place between Oregon and Idaho called Hell's Canyon. They have class three to five rapids and rock climbing." I found a rafting company on line and their name is called Bell's Run. They take small groups. Look at the reviews," and Emmett passed them around.
"Pardon the pun but let Hell try and take us. I am in for class five rapids, getting soaked, and climbing mountains," Jasper said and passed the papers on to Edward.
"Edward?" Emmett asked.
"Please tell me the guide is a guy because I do not need to deal with Tanya all over my ass."
"I don't know everyone refers to the guide as Bells; but how many river guides have we met that are women?" Emmett chuckled. "This is a manly adventure and we know women can't handle rafts and class five rapids like big guys like us can!"
"True man. I am in for Hell for a week. Go ahead Emmett and book the trip." Emmett had the trip booked that weekend.
Over the next eight weeks, we did some research for some other cases for Carlisle, our boss. Two weeks before our vacation again we were assigned to go in and get six American women being held hostage from Darfur Sudan. We made it back with four days to spare. It was a pretty easy trip except two of the women couldn't stop trying to hit on us. When we got back Carlisle told us to take a few days off, I went and picked Tanya up from work and we went out to dinner. She greeted me a little surprised but agreed to go to dinner. We were at dinner; when she excused herself to go to the bathroom, her phone vibrated and I picked it up to sit it on the table. I saw the message say -
my beautiful fiancé - I will see you later after you tell Eddie good night forever.
When Tanya returned to the table, she picked up her phone laying on the table and slid it into her purse.
"You have a message, Tanya; it vibrated while laying in the booth. I didn't want you to forget it, so I put it on the table."
"Thanks Edward," and then she must have seen the message and looked at me.
"I'm sorry Edward. It happened unexpectedly."
"Don't worry about it. I know you didn't like me being gone all the time. Let me pay the bill and I'll take you back to your car at the office. You may want to text your fiancé to let him know he can meet you there." I left Tanya at the table and went to the hostess stand to pay the bill. I had Tanya dropped off at her car in fifteen minutes. Tanya tried to take my hands but I pulled them back and said, "Tanya, I think you should just leave."
"Edward, you need a woman who isn't demanding of you and your time plus a physical equal to you. Perfect example, you need someone to go white water rafting with you; me, I would rather wait for you at the spa. Believe me, she's out there and I'm sorry." Tanya went to kiss me goodbye but all I gave her access to was my cheek.
I got home and carried inside a bottle of tequila and some beer. Emmett saw what I had, ignored the basketball game and followed me. I poured a shot and chased it with a beer.
Emmett said, "Jasper, we got a problem. Edward and Tanya must be over. Edward just took a shot of tequila and finished a beer chaser in less than two minutes."
Jasper was in the kitchen, quickly. I poured a second shot and this time both were gone in four minutes.
I took a third beer and the tequila. I made it to the living room and started watching basketball as I drank my third shot.
"What happened?" Jasper asked as he sat down on the other end of the couch with a beer and Emmett was in his recliner.
"She has a fiancé and was supposed to meet up with him tonight before I showed up. However, once I did, she was supposed to break up with me tonight."
"I'm sorry, man," Jasper said.
"No problem. I guess I just need a break from women for a while."
"Hell's river and climbing will take care of that. Thank God," I said. I had two more shots that night and two more beers. By the time I passed out on the sofa, I was drunk and really didn't care. The next morning my head hurt, but I went running and ran off my headache. I was going to find a woman who enjoyed the outdoors when I returned from vacation. I wasn't going to settle for less. I didn't care if she was the perfect 5 foot 8, blond hair, 38 -24-34 figure. I wanted someone who enjoyed hiking, water sports, skiing and was half way decent in bed. After my shower from running, I enjoyed the weekend to some extent. At least we had basketball to watch while we got our gear together for the week.
A/N Please enjoy. Let me know what you think as you go through these first three chapters. I will probably post chapter 4 on THURSDAY. Have a great week.
