YOU'RE WHAT!

Disclaimer: The Cullen's, the Swans, and most of the characters mentioned in the story that are known from Stephanie Meyer's beloved Twilight Saga, are all hers and hers alone. I neither have nor wish to pass them off as mine. I do appreciate the fact that she did bring them to life and allows us to play with them in our imaginations. The only thing I will claim is the current storyline.

The awesome and talented dowlingnana searched out my errors and corrected them.

"Well, if there aren't anything further, I guess we're decided as to who we're going to be attached to." Bella said and then burst out into laughter as she saw the looks of disappointment and resignation on the faces of her fellow agents and friends.

The conversation turned more towards lighter subjects and after a bit the three left to go their separate way until later in the evening.

CHAPTER 7: FRUSTRATION

Bella, Alice and Rosalie all knew that a lot of times things aren't always what they seemed, but, that only meant they had to be more alert in their approach to things coming at them in this situation. It was extremely important that the witnesses were kept safe and sound so they would be able to testify when the time came.

Each of the agents left Starbuck's and went home to get some rest for what might possibly be a very long night. No telling what might have to be done especially of Miss Strawberry Blondie showed up again at one or more of the places they all might be.

Another thing that was bothering Bella, even though, she didn't mention it to the other two was the fact that she wasn't going to get a chance to be with the one called Edward. He had definitely had a very active starring role in her dreams last night and with his long piano fingers she had noticed when first introduced to all three witnesses she was sure that he knew how to play a mighty fine tune; a mighty fine tune indeed upon his sex partner's body. That was something she was very much wanting to experience, but, the safety of the guys had to be at the forefront and everyone had to stay alert to any possible threat that was a danger to their charges.

Of course, at the same time as they arrived home, Rose and Alice were having the same doubts, regrets, thoughts and wishes as what Bella was having. All three were second guessing the decision they had made to act as girlfriend with one of the other two guys than the one they were having undesirable, desirable thoughts about. And, as all of the questioning on the subject ran through their minds their bodies were responding to their thoughts; thoughts of what the object of their desires could do and if those actions were anything like the dreams they had had the night before then a good time was to be had in the bed. If anyone of the friends had a view of what the other two's thoughts were then each of their thoughts would be classified as being quite salacious, and, at the same time might be considered as borderline extreme.

Each agent made a promise to themselves that when they met tonight before entering the first club and observing their charges a revisit to the subject of who would go with whom would take place. After all, the three of them were outstanding agents, so, why would they need to go with other than the one they were most drawn to be considered to be more alert than they normally would be? Because on second thoughts that suggestion didn't really make much sense. They were supposed to be acting as eventual girlfriends as the couples were seen out more and more together, so, where was the harm? As it would be assumed that each couple was sharing a more than just a night out or a kiss or two.

So, the decision being made by each agent and friend Bella, Alice and Rosalie set about doing the necessary cleaning around their home before getting ready to rest a bit before heading out to the club, if, or, when, their charges had made that decision or choice. They would be informed of the chosen destination by the agents that were on duty once they were able. This would enable the three gals to get in position without being noticed.

Also, once more information became available either through the research that was being done by some of the agents assigned to the case or by the DOJ and U. S. Attorney Black the girls would be better able to begin putting facts together and doing a more in depth investigation that would lead to the arrest of all involved in the killings their charges had witnessed and to the ones that ordered the crime to be done.

In the meantime, the main assignment was to make sure the guys were safe and to maintain their cover for the purpose.

Reaching for the phone and checking the caller ID Edward saw that it was Emmett giving him a call. Quickly wondering why his friend was calling, but, knowing that if he refused to answer this call Emmett would only keep calling until he did get an answer, Edward answered by simply asking, "What the hell do you want, Emmett?"

"You busy?"

"Of course, you jackass, I stay busy."

"I just spoke with Jasper and he's wanting to go out again tonight to see if the three honeys are going to show up tonight since they didn't last night. What do you think? Should we give it another go?"

"I guess, but, it'll be another waste of time. They weren't there last night. In fact, I'm not sure any of them were there last night. We didn't see them and no one approached to let us know that they were available."

"Edward, are you sure about your facts? There's nothing that says they weren't there."

"The three best of the best of the elite that are supposed to be close to us at all times weren't there. And, we aren't sure that any of the agents or Marshalls were there."

"You, my friend, are such a downer. Just because no one walked up and hit us over the head to announce their arrival doesn't mean no one wasn't there and keeping a watch in the background.

"I mean, they did say that our habits were going to be observed before they made their presence known. What part of that are you having a problem with?"

"Yeah, watching our habits means being available to do so, not off someplace else."

"You seem to be forgetting that the Prim and Proper one said that they would observe our habits and would make an appearance in a manner that would appear nature to anyone watching. Why are you acting like such a sexually deprived asshat?"

Edward didn't answer his friend's question, but, did roll his eyes in response. He knew why he was being such an ass, but, that didn't mean that he had to admit it to anyone else, especially to Emmett who wouldn't let it go and would spend any time he could teasing about the situation; his sexual frustration of wanting to have the one Emmett was calling Prim and Proper amongst some of the names he has referred to her as. But, no matter how he tried to think of ways to get her to agree to letting him join his body together with hers only to have his thoughts always came up against a brick wall in that area. He just couldn't seem to think of a workable approach that would appear natural to get her to give him a chance to take the matter beyond professional to a more personal area.

Edward knew that he wasn't lacking in the bedroom adventures and that his partner always went away completely satisfied as they left still wanting more along with a repeat performance. Most of the time that never happened, but, once in a while Edward did do a return venture with one or another that he found to be as satisfying to him and his needs as he had been to hers. However, right now he was sexually frustrated because no one seemed to appeal to him since meeting one particular FBI agent.

This beginning obsession with Agent Swan was starting to hamper Edward's thought processes at work and he was scheduled to meet with a new client along with some of his other staff that would be at the meeting to offer ideas they had thought of in helping to promote the client's new product line. And the fact that he was having a hard time keeping his mind on work and out of the bedroom, or, rather, the bed with one lovely lady in particular, was putting him in a very bad mood.

Edward thought he was keeping his frustration well hidden from his employees, but, they were all very much aware that for some reason the boss was in a bad mood; they didn't know what had put him there so they were walking around on eggshells and trying very hard to keep his attention away from their direction, that's how cranky he was behaving.

His mood didn't get any better as the day progressed, even, though, the meeting with his new client had gone extremely well and all of the ideas put forth had been well received with the final contract being signed giving the company a two year commitment.

Leaving for the day he wasn't looking forward to the club scene tonight in spite of the fact that he had agreed to go. He was disappointed about how things had worked out last night and was fully prepared to be greeted by the same results this evening. And the more he considered the upcoming event, the darker his mood seemed to get as he felt he was sure of what the outcome was going to be and the disappointment he would have to deal with once again.

Bella, Alice and Rosalie had decided to get a bite to eat while waiting to hear from Sam Uley about if the three guys were going out again tonight or if they were all three going home. There wasn't any point in showing up at any club only to find out that they charges weren't going to be there. Of course, it was possible, that any or all three of the guys might have different plans like dates for the night and would be up to different activities altogether. And, if that was the case then the three agents would call it a night and head home to do some work on the case that could be done individually.

While the girls were having dinner and waiting to hear about whatever plans the guys might have going their conversation centered on lighter subjects, but, didn't fail to get around to the dreams each of them had had the night before. And, without going into too much detail each described where their dreams had taken them.

Each of the guys were getting ready to meet up at their favorite diner for a meal before starting to hit the night spots once more. But, the decision was made to go to some different clubs this evening. The suggestion had been tossed out there by Emmett and seconded by Jasper as he pointed out that by changing up where they went would provide the necessary reassurance to all three of them that their safety was in good hands. And, Edward agreed that it would definitely put his mind at ease as to knowing that their assigned protection detail was really in place.

"You do realize that by changing where we're going is likely to stop the girls from showing up since they might be expecting us to appear at one of our usual places." Jasper pointed out.

"What the hell. Let's have fun tonight and see who we can land for the night." Were the snarky comments coming from Edward. Suddenly, his dark mood started to lighten up.

Too bad Edward, Emmett and Jasper were likely to be eating crow before the night was over.

A/N: Okay, the game is being stepped up, Edward grumbling about his frustration at night having Bella show up, and the guys decided at the last minute to test their security. Think that is a wise moved? Are they going to be in for a surprise from the agents?
