My Silver Eyed Cowboy

A/N …I would like to dedicate this to Piper's dead cousin, and Crystal's sister, our dear little Faith. Its not her real name, it's the one she used to call her, because she was so full of faith in her god. I know, without a doubt, that Faith is in heaven, and so are her mother and father. I have named a certain someone in the story after her, because Faith loved Jasper out of all the Twilight characters, and said one day she wanted to meet a guy like him… To Faith, I hope you find that guy up there……

Okay, well, everybody seemed to like the last chapter, so, well, here's the new one. A little birdie told me that maybe it would have been better if I had given more point of views in the last chappy, but I was trying to make Bella the focus. And, I wanted Jasper to remain a mystery for now. However, here, Its all about Bella and Jasper, and You'll be getting the same event through both of their eyes.

And, I'd like to add a little something. You see, lately, I've been getting a few emails, not messages, but emails saying that I stole this story and someone's gonna sue me. I don't like threats, and I don't like lies. And, to whoever is the person reading the story and saying these things, did I mention that Piper's mom, the real mom, is a LAWYER!?!?!?! Yeah, and she would totally help me out here, just so ya know. So, again, leave me the hell alone, and don't make me get out the 26 year old (for the 20th year in a row) Gypsy woman, okay? She's a force not to be reckoned with. Thank you, enjoy.

So, without further ado, here is Chapter 7, 'What happened to you?', dedicated once again to our girl Faith….


Bella's P.O.V

I woke up from the most amazing dream of my entire life. And, to ruin the high I had gotten, I found my hand down my panties, and buried inside…

Oh, and Alice standing at the door with the smuggest look on her face, and two boxes in her hands.

"Wellllll, from what we heard last night, you had some pretty damn good dreams, huh?" she waggled her eyebrows, and I blushed, bringing an almost soaked hand out. I let out a hushed scream, and ran to the bathroom and cleaned it off quickly.

"Get in the shower, and no one needs to know what you did, you naughty, naughty girl." She turned on the water, and got out all my makeup. She started to rummage through my closet, and that's when I realized what she was doing.

"Am I going somewhere today, oh PixieLord777?" I asked, using her chat name on one of her sites. She had thousands of contacts and aliases. Kinda scary, but what can you do? She liked to plan ahead.

"Yes. Didn't you know that you're going to where the sexy outfit I picked you out, and just happen to walk by Jasper right when he's about to take a break, all hot and sweaty and, if I do say so myself (which I do), horny as hell for you? I know I didn't mention it until now…" She was droning on and on while I tried to cool down. The cold shower, well, didn't feel so cold.

If even thinking of him sexually gets me so hot I can't feel cold, I wonder what being sexual, more than last night, would do. We could heat factories, most likely.

"So, tell me the exact plan, pixie girl." I hollered over the dryer, trying to make my hair dry into those weird curls. Beauty comes at a cost: no sleeping in.

"Well, here's my plan, and you'll have to read it yourself, cause right now? I'm getting everything in order." I heard a rustling in the other room, and an 'Aha!'. She found whatever she was looking for, I guessed. Then I heard a grunt, and tearing.

I flew out of the bathroom, screeching to a halt as I saw her tearing a scrap of cloth. It just so happened to be my lucky scarf from when I was five. I flew at her, grabbing it, and holding it close to me. I was kinda ticked.

"What the hell, Alice! You know this is my favorite scarf, and it has sentimental value!" I hollered at her, looking at the damage.

"I'm putting it on your purse." She huffed, snatching it back, and taking my purse. My red straw purse and a shiny scarf made of that fluffy, glittery yarn.

I didn't know, nor did I want to know until she was finished. That was the best way to deal with Alice's projects.

I put on the outfit she wanted me to wear, and did my makeup. The top, one of those sleeveless ones found most commonly in the south, was cherry red, and… oh my dear god, it had a very small frill at the edges. Alice hated frills, pearl snaps, and string ties with all her heart, and she was giving me this to wear. He may like them, but was Alice really willing to let me go away in frills? Did she think that the world would end if I didn't?

Not to say they weren't cute. I liked them, and they made me look cute, innocent, and very pretty. And that made me more suspicious. She didn't want me to look sexy, she wanted me to look… cute and adorable, like an innocent little girl.

Alice has discouraged that from the very beginning. She wanted me to see the sexy, smokin' babe that I could be, and only now realized I was. Why would she go back on that now?

"Bella? Your hair is a mess, I don't want it to look like that!" I heard her groan, and I felt her hands immediately get to work on my hair.

I continued to think about her reasons. And yet, I couldn't come up with one. Alice was hiding something, and she had a certain maneuver to all this, like she wanted to show me off as-

And then I got it. But, just in case, I decided to ask. With Alice, less can be more, but sometimes, on rare occasions; it's not even close to enough. I could be wrong.

"Spill, why are you making me look cute today?" I said the moment she was done with my hair. She had done it in a smooth style, letting it fan out behind me, and when she put a cowgirl hat on me, it made me look sweet and adorable. SO NOT Alice!!!

"He saw Normal Bella, he saw Sexy Bella, so now he sees cute, adorable, and very-in-need-of-protection Bella." She smirked. Bingo, one point for me, I was right.

"I see. Then why did you add the comment about him being horny as hell?" I countered.

"Because, he might need to learn you're not just normal and sexy, he needs to keep the big boy down sometimes. Nothing more than a cute little girl who looks like she needs protection will do that. And, something tells me he's into those three aspects. Remember, normal, sexy, and cute. Follow these principals, learn them, live them, and make them your own." She rambled to me.

"I see…. So, where's my purse and scarf?" I asked, holding out my hand. "And what the hell is in the boxes you came in with?"

She brought out a straw bag, red on the straw part, but with the scarf tied into the pattern that was previously on there. It was a pattern of a heart, a guitar, and a shape of something blobby… I realized it was Arizona.

Well, this was only going to get even better. I could feel it.

"And, the boxes… well, lets just say I'm not gonna be called aunty Alice 'til I'm thirty, got it?" She brought them for my inspection, and I created a fierce blush. Birth Control, and a box of Magnum condoms, the biggest I think there are out there….

"Alice, why did you buy these? I would hope you don't know his condom size." I looked at her, kinda freaking out. She pursed her lips, looked like she was choosing between two painful things, and decided. She brought out a light tanned leather wallet, with a guitar stitched into it.

"You might want to give this back to him." Her eyes wondered as I glared at her, and burst out laughing. That's when a condom dropped out.

Magnum…. Well, hell.

~*~

I looked at the list she gave me; once again, to make sure I got everything right.

Remember, follow these to success!

*One, make sure you are presentable (floof, primp, whatever you call it)

*Now, follow the directions I gave you, they are so easy that I'm not gonna write them down. Your fault if you don't remember.

*Okay, well, if you arrive there at 12:35, you should see a hot, sweaty, sexy body. That's your guy. Or at least, it should be.

*Make sure you don't have this list out right in front of you when you reach him. He might grab it. (I actually might have had it out while walking to him, and yeah, I know, space woman.)

*Okay, then, you walk up, look like you're just looking over to see what's where, and wondering around, and you had no idea he was there. As in, you had no idea he works there.

*look cute, innocent, and like you had a good nights sleep, which I know you did, and from there, I can't see anything, so its on your own. Be charming and polite, and remember to throw in a sexy flare once in a while, next to the innocence thing! Oh, and give him his wallet back, okay? I needed the condom size and learned a lot from his wallet, by the way. He doesn't just have two brothers and parents. He has a granny he loves very much.

Loves and kisses, Pixie!!!

Yeah, gotta love Alice. So, here I am, walking to Jaspers work place, and only now realizing, she never told me what he did. And what the place was for.

I learned pretty quickly, though, that it was a ranch. His family seemed to own it, because I saw a man that could only be his father out tending to Edwards bleeding leg. And, I saw Emmett carrying away a large steel object, which I couldn't even recognize. All I saw of it was a large spiky end with a little blood.

"Oh my god, are you all right?!" I asked, rushing over to the guys. Jasper was nowhere to be seen. Edward looked up panicky, and the calmed down after looking around me.

He didn't want Alice to see him weak or injured. He was such a typical guy, no matter how sensual looking he might be.

"Oh, its nothin, just took off a bit more than I could chew, I guess you could say. Ouch!" his father had jabbed at him to keep him still, and it worked, because he stopped breathing, it seemed.

"Hello, miss…. Bella? I assume you're not Edwards dear Alice, because he would have puffed up bigger than a buffalo ready to charge if it was." He ignored Edwards glare, and just prodded at the cut again, earning a groan from the victim.

"Yes, I am Bella. Are you sure he'll be okay? Maybe we should take him to the hospital…." I trailed off from the look of amusement coming from Mr. Cullen.

"Bella, I'm the head of the hospital here, trust me, he'll be fine. It looks bad, but he didn't hit anything major, and it's quite shallow. I have everything I need here at home, and I appreciate your concern." He still hadn't met my eyes yet, just examining the wound.

"Well… if you're sure...." I muttered, looking at the scratches. They actually didn't look that bad, and from what I could tell, all the signs pointed out by Mr. Cullen were right.

"I'm sorry, I haven't even introduced myself. I would shake your hand, but I don't think that's sanitary." He smiled, and for a moment, I thought, what the hell? Until I saw his bloody hands. Oh, yeah, not sanitary.

"Bella? Well, I'll be damned, Jasper's gonna throw a fit since we saw you first. Don't worry though, I aint hittin on ya." Emmett boomed to us, jogging up rather quickly for someone so large. He came up to me and gave me a big bear hug, and I knew immediately he was telling the truth. Emmett just liked giving hugs. That much was obvious.

"Hey, um, by chance, is Rosy girl with ya?" he asked, looking around, eyes alight. I hated to be the one to make them darker.

"No, but, from what Alice made her up as, she's definitely going to be seeing you today." I wasn't technically lying. Rose did look all fancy and nice, so I assumed it was for him. And, she also had purple and blue on. Emmett's favorite.

"Cool! I mean good, good." Emmett had started out with a goofy grin, and tried to end it with a serious, nonchalant look. He failed, because he turned around to hide his blossoming smile.

"C'mon, little bro, lets go get you to the house. Mommas gonna throw a fit, cuz' this is the third time this month, and that damn thing, pardon me Bella, wont be getting any lighter!" he continued, helping Edward to the small building in the distance. As I watched them go, I realized that Mr. Cullen was still there, staring at me, wiping the blood off of his hands.

"So, I here you and the girls are taking a very large interest into my boys, huh?" He asked, smirking at me in the, 'I know what your doing, and I like it' way. I couldn't help but smile back. And then his smile turned sour. "And you've taken a special interest in my Jasper, haven't you?"

Uh oh, I could sense dangerous ground here. I decided to tread lightly.

"Well, I certainly do like him, but there seems to be something he's not exactly willing to tell me. I'm guessing, and this is a very well thought on guess, that it has something…" I took a leap and picked the thought floating dangerously through my head, and sticking with my intuition, "To do with his Ex-girlfriend?"

And, as if I just grew another head and horns, his eyes bugged out of his head. I'm so glad I'm a woman sometimes, but right now, my intuition seemed to hit the spot, exactly.

"Five years ago, when he had only just turned 21, on his birthday night, he went out with his girlfriend to a bar. He had a little beer here and there, and she had nothing, to make sure he got home safe. But, that night, someone had picked his keys out of his pocket." He paused, and looked at me for a second. Speculating whether to tell me the rest of the story. He shook his head, evidently thinking it wasn't the time. "He should tell you in his own time. I'm sorry I brought it up, but remember this please. It hurt him so severely, he hasn't had a date since, and I'm surprised he even took interest in you. You look nothing like her… her name was Faith."

And with that, he bowed his head to me, and left towards the house…

Dead girlfriend…. Wow. I hadn't expected that to be it. I had assumed she might have hurt him, or left him, or just been gone like that, but… a dead lover is always remembered, and it's always painful….

I was walking in a daze, when I realized I had found who I was looking for.

Right in front of me, about 10 yards from me, was a sweating tan, and… well, the hottest man I've ever seen working hard on putting huge stones from a pile into an orderly fashion… into a building of some kind. I realized, since it was a ranch, maybe a windmill? Who knows? Maybe a well. I did see a hole in the ground…

Back to the man, though. He was shirtless, completely this time, and he had his back to me, cowboy hat sitting on his head and blocking his view of me. Every time he lifted a stone, his arms bulged huge, almost like Emmett's did, but more impressive to me. His pants were riding low, and I could see a very nice V going down into a trail of hair.

But, what was on his back caught my eyes, and then caught my tongue into my throat. I looked on in horror as his muscles kept rippling under a blanket of scars, all over his back, and they would have been barely noticeable, if there hadn't been hundreds of them. They were tiny little lines and crescents, all over his back and neck, growing an angry red in the sun and strain from working. He still looked as handsome, but it now had a terrible beauty. He had very bad things happen to him, and it broke my heart to see it. He stopped suddenly, gasping and grabbing at his back, at the largest scar, probably a foot long, along the left side of his back.

Right at the back way to his heart. Someone had tried to kill him.

He took his hat off, and wiped his head. He had this look on his face like he had sunburn, and was rubbing it with a brush. His scar was hurting him. I quickly recollected myself, and was satisfied that he hadn't noticed me at all. Until I smiled and waved.

"Bella! Well, what do ya know?" He smiled, and broke into a jog towards me. I still had that friendly, superficial smile on my face, trying to mask my horror at what had happened to him.

"Hey, I was just in the neighborhood…." He looked at me skeptically, and I realized my voice sounded like I wasn't just in the neighborhood…. So I decided to save myself.

"Really?" he asked, and crossed his arms, his smile turning into 'an uh-huh' and I'm a chicken like one.

"Okay, I wasn't just in the neighborhood…. The pixie girl took something of yours, and I wanted to return it. She was trying to make sure… you know… you were a good guy. You know, you can tell a lot about people from their purses or wallets." I let out in a rush, handing him his wallet.

He smiled, and took my wallet, tipping his hat off, and then said, "Well, thank ye much for it, I thought I lost it in that little tuff at the bar." He opened it, and his eyes widened, and he picked something up… a note? He read it carefully, frowned, and then he burst out laughing, like I did when his condom fell out.

"What? What is it?" I asked, grabbing the note from his laughter ridden body.

Dear Jasper, the man currently trying to mate with our dearest Bella.

Treat her well, or we'll kick your cowboy ass, and don't think I can't. I am very fast and very strong for such a tiny thing. Oh, and by the way, Belly boo may have something to tell you if you ever try anything bad, from what I have seen of your…. Gun protector.

From, the Pixie, Alice

"Oh my god……" I gasped, and that brought more laughs from Jasper.

"So, she saw my gun protector, huh?" he roared, and he actually fell to the ground and kept on laughing, "Well, I better watch my cowboy ass, then, cause that girl seems very confident in her ability to kick it!"

"She can, she's a master black belt." I said, in a calm, matter of fact voice. This, unfortunately, wasn't a lie. Complete truth was used, and Jasper picked up on that. He stopped laughing.

"Wow. She's just full of surprises, isn't she?" he raised his eyebrow, and smirked again. He jumped to his feet, and brushed his back off.

"So, what did you come here to see?" he spread his arms out, like, 'this, maybe?'

"I came to see you, and to ask if you wanted to go out somewhere. I hadn't quite figured that out, really, so… maybe you know a place I could ask you out to?" I answered, because I wanted him to realize I was very honest.

"Well, I'm not so sure, I mean, I was gonna drop by this girls house, that I helped rebuild, and ask her if she wanted to go dancing again, since her last time was ruined by this total ass of a guy, you know the type." He looked at me like he was really sorry he had to turn me down. Jerk, he was messing with me.

"Well, hm…. I guess I'll just have to go out with the girls if you're busy…" I acted slightly hurt, and turned away. I caught his confused expression, and walked a few steps before turning back to him with a smile.

"Oh, you're so funny, missy, I'm bustin' up here…" he said hysterically, and I had to laugh at the way his drawl made it sound. So sexy….

"So, I would love to accompany you. Unless you help girls out with their houses all the time, and you really have another girl you took out a few nights ago." I winked at him. Alice would be so proud.

"It's a date." He drawled with a smirk. And, I was glad I was able to stay dry… all thanks go to the tampon Alice shoved at me (at least she didn't shove it in me) for this very reason. My period was 13 days ago….. heheh.


Jaspers P.O.V

It was night again, and I had taken Bella to this amazing club. We didn't have any trouble tonight, and she and I had a good time, and talked, even though I couldn't for the life of me remember what about… which was odd. I would remember anything this angel said.

All of a sudden, the car ride didn't seem to take us all that long, cuz we were at her doorstep in a very short amount of time. I looked at her, relishing the sight of her pretty little body in its wrappings.

She had on this long sleeved blouse, with little wavy frills at the end, and a pair of cowgirl boots made to look like snakeskin. Her jeans were so tight, they looked like they were painted onto her flawless skin. And, if I may say so myself, they cupped her cute little ass perfectly. Her hair was curly and wavy all over, making her look like a wild rider.

"Well, I had a good time tonight… do you want to continue it?" she winked at me, and all of a sudden, we were in her room, making out and completely naked. She was hitched at my hips, and as she pushed me down, I saw the light make her breasts sway just the right way, making me moan and take hold of them instead.

It all felt so good, being inside her, finally, that I forgot everything around me, until I was lost in our orgasm. We had both finished at the same time….

And at that point, unfortunately, I woke up with the covers pulled back, and finding myself relaxed and covered. Crap.

I shook my head in disgust, that it was only a dream; I hadn't ravished her all night long…. Well, maybe one day I would.

I got straight into the shower, taking one cold one, then a hot one to sooth my nerves. I was wondering whether or not I should ask her out, or wait a while. We had only just gone out the night before, but that didn't go over so well… though I did get to dance with the girl….

~*~

It was around 2, maybe three, I didn't know, when my back started to act up again. The long cut at the back of my heart was aching, so it was time to stop for the day. The little well I was making to make sure the there were more than a few water sources was taking forever. I had taken my shirt off around ten in the morning, so I knew id be sweatin' bullets.

I had decided to try to ask. I mean, this girl is amazin'! I hope she doesn't think I'm being pushy or anything, cuz' I really do like her. And, something about my dream last night seemed to be screaming, "Ask her out! THIS SHIT WILL HAPPEN!!!!" I always listen to my instincts, so, I was pretty pissed now.

My wallet must have gotten lost in the little brawl, if anyone could call it that, at the bar last night. That was my last damn condom. And I wouldn't even dare do it without one, cuz last time….

Before I could think of it, Bella was smiling and waving at me a few yards away. Heh, she seemed to save me whenever I thought about my past, and I was grateful for my new little angel. Just hopin' that she could put up with it after tonight…

'Dude, seriously, what makes you so sure you'll get it tonight? Huh'

'Well,' I thought back to that little voice in the back of my head, 'Something's gonna happen tonight, and I hope it's me makin' sweet love to this girl. Of course, I'd understand if she said no…'

And I stopped. Bella didn't look anything like she did normally, or the night before. She looked like an innocent little girl now, and I couldn't make out why. She looked cute as hell, and I immediately wanted to hold her in my arms. But that would make me weird, huh?

"Bella? Well, what do ya know?" I smiled like an idiot, and broke into a jog towards her. She had this strained, kinda weird smile, that became more natural as I walked towards her. Uh oh, somethin's up.

"Hey, I was just in the neighborhood…." She started, and from the I-really-doubt-that look I was giving her, she decided to save herself.

"Really?" I asked, and crossed my arms.

"Okay, I wasn't just in the neighborhood…. The pixie girl took something of yours, and I wanted to return it. She was trying to make sure… you know… you were a good guy. You know, you can tell a lot about people from their purses or wallets." She let it out, taking my wallet from her purse. Well, well, little pixie girl had many talents.

"Well, thank ye much for it, I thought I lost it in that little tuff at the bar." I tipped my hat off, gave her my biggest smile, and opened my wallet. There was a piece of paper that I was sure wasn't mine, it was pink.

Dear Jasper, the man currently trying to mate with our dearest Bella.

Treat her well, or we'll kick your cowboy ass, and don't think I can't. I am very fast and very strong for such a tiny thing. Oh, and by the way, Belly boo may have something to tell you if you ever try anything bad, from what I have seen of your…. Gun protector.

From, the Pixie, Alice

"What? What is it?" She asked, grabbing the note from me while I cracked down into chuckles so hard I nearly peed myself. Not a good thing to do, though.

"Oh my god……" She gasped, and that brought more laughs from me.

"So, she saw my gun protector, huh?" I laughed even louder, and I fell to the ground and kept on laughing, "Well, I better watch my cowboy ass, then, cause that girl seems very confident in her ability to kick it!"

"She can, she's a master black belt." Bella said, face completely innocent, and I could tell she was tellin' the truth. Wow, little Alice really did have many talents.

"Wow. She's just full of surprises, isn't she?" I commented, raising my brow. She blushed deep red. "So, what did you come here to see?" I spread my arms out and flexed a little. She blushed deep and bit her bottom lip. Oh yeah, she liked my muscles.

"I came to see you, and to ask if you wanted to go out somewhere. I hadn't quite figured that out, really, so… maybe you know a place I could ask you out to?" She answered.

"Well, I'm not so sure, I mean, I was gonna drop by this girls house, that I helped rebuild, and ask her if she wanted to go dancing again, since her last time was ruined by this total ass of a guy, you know the type." I joked, but instantly regretted it. Bella seemed to have thought I was serious!

"Well, hm…. I guess I'll just have to go out with the girls if you're busy…" She started to walk away, and I couldn't let her leave like that! I was joking! Crap, crap, crap!!!!! Then she turned around, giving me a devilish smile and a wink.

"Oh, you're so funny, missy, I'm bustin' up here…" I drawled hysterically, and she laughed, smiling even wider. Was it just me, or did she seem to like the way I talk?

"So, I would love to accompany you. Unless you help girls out with their houses all the time, and you really have another girl you took out a few nights ago." She winked at me, and at that moment I saw sexy Bella winking at me, and then I saw dream Bella, beneath me, shining with sweat….

No! not here, you cannot get away with a boner here man! Tight jeans don't let you do that!

"It's a date." I agreed, and I was lucky she didn't seem to hear my moan in that. God, I was really hoping I didn't have to rub one out before our date; I wanted her to feel great tonight… if anything happened.

Before she turned away, something fell out of her purse, and when she was a safe distance away, I picked it up and examined it.

Magnum Trojan, the exact same size as mine. I flipped open my wallet, and there it was, my Magnum.

Oh, Miss Bella, you're in for a big treat tonight….


A/N Okay, well, um, help. That's all I have to say. I have had this one done for a while, and sorry, but I was trying to get ideas for the next one. I have NOTHING! Please, people, suggestions, tell me what you think should happen, or this story is in danger of being discontinued! I have a few ideas for later in the chapters, but right now? I got nothin. I was thinking of adding Jacob soon, but not in the next one. Maybe having the next chapter about the other girls and guys? Maybe Rose and Emmett can't wait for themselves to get to know each other???

Well, yeah. And, also, Faith, we love you, and you are in our hearts. Rest in piece. She, I hope, is happy with her role. As said before, she loved Jasper, and I decided, as a tribute, she needed to be his lover. So, Bella might find out soon what really happened, btu right now, lets keep it cool.

So, please, review, because I got a few reviews for this last chapter, but not as much as I would have liked… please, reviews give me more inspiration to write, and with only a few of them, there's no real use wasting much time on a story, if no one is going to read and encourage it.

Thanks, TheDevimangel
