10.

"This view is amazing, too. What do you call this? You know, when the edge of the pool looks like it falls off the cliff?" Emmett asks while they float in the pool at the bachelor mansion.

"I think it's called an infinity pool. I could totally get used to this," adds Edward.

"Me too. Too bad you have to work tomorrow," Jasper teases. "How sad, twenty beautiful women all here, just for you."

Edward gives Jasper an annoyed look.

"So, what are we going to do tonight?" Emmett presses.

"We are not going dancing," Edward says firmly.

"We have to do something. What a waste if we don't," Emmett pouts.

"I want to go out, too, but I'd love to hear some live music. LA is known for it's new music scene. We should be able to find something good. You guys okay with that?" Edward suggests.

"Will there be girls?" asks Emmett.

"I'll make sure we see a guy band and the girls are sure to be there," Edward says, rolling his eyes.

"Cool."

"Sounds good to me," Jasper agrees. "Wouldn't it be funny if we saw some of your women when we're out? I would assume they are here too, I doubt they'll arrive tomorrow."

"That would be...strange. Did the producers tell you where their house is? Or the house we are filming at?" Edward inquires.

"All I know is, is that both places are somewhere around here, within a few miles. I did talk to Liz earlier, she is here in LA and all the girls are staying at different hotels for the night," Jasper says.

Edward gets out of the pool and dries off. "I'll get on the internet and see who's playing in town. I'm gonna miss being able to do that. It's going to be so weird without computers and phones."

"Make sure you call your mom before they confiscate everything," Jasper reminds Edward.

"I'll do that now, too."

"This place is a dive. The entrance is in the back alley. But what an interesting old building," Jasper says, looking around the lobby area of the bar. "So, who is playing tonight?"

"There is an act every two hours starting at 8 pm. We can stay for all three or whatever. They sounded interesting. I checked out their websites and listened to some of their music. The guys playing at 8 pm. are singer/songwriter friends from the UK. They do solo work, but play together for fun."

"You did good picking an artist that attracts the women, Edward. Look at this place, man, ninety percent of the audience is women," Emmett says with wide eyes as he scans the darkened room of the small club.

Jasper hands large mixed drinks to Edward and Emmett. "Damn, this drink is strong. Did you order a double?" Edward asks.

Jasper shakes his head.

"Strong drinks equal loose women," Emmett says to himself.

"We are not taking any women home, so get that idea right out of your head. You can look but do not touch," Edward states, leaving no room for discussion.

"I'm gonna cruise the room," Emmett yells to his friends in the lull between songs.

Jasper and Edward nod.

"He better not get us in trouble," Edward says into Jasper's ear.

Jasper chuckles and nods. " I know. I'll be right back."

Emmett returns when the set is over.

"I met the sexist woman, ever. She's tall, blonde, sexy as hell. She acted all uninterested, but I know better. She had two cute friends with her, too. I told them I was with my two single friends, but one of the girls is, how did they put it? Um, oh yeah, they said she was meeting someone special tomorrow. Whatever that means," he rushes out excitedly.

"Let's go have a drink with them," exclaims Emmett as he grabs Edward's arm.

"I can't hook up with someone tonight, Emmett. Are you nuts? My love life is about to get more complicated than it's ever been, and you want me to throw another woman into the mix?"

"Oh, come on Eddie. Do it for me. You don't have to do anything but talk. We'll give you the girl who's waiting for someone. Where's Jasper? He'll do it for me." Emmett looks around the room.

"I thought he went to find you?"

"Nope, I've been in the lobby talking with those girls. They're in line to get a CD signed."

"Excuse me." Edward turns to the stage where a familiar voice is coming from. "I'm sorry to announce that the next group is running late due to car trouble. However, we are fortunate to have a musician in the audience tonight who has offered to perform a few new songs for us. Let's welcome to the stage, Edward Masen," Jasper announces from the microphone on the stage. He's holding an acoustic guitar in his hand.

The crowd buzzes at the announcement.

"Shit, what is he doing?" Edward says under his breath.

"I think he got you a gig in LA," Emmett laughs. "Go for it, Eddie. What have you got to lose?"

"My dignity," Edward mumbles, making his way to the small stage.
