"Bella!" I looked up from my desk in time to see Angela, my co-worker, walking back through our department door carrying a large, attention-grabbing bouquet of red roses. I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face in that moment. He had done it again. Edward. Cowboy Hotness had sent me roses again.

I stood from my desk and walked out of my office over to meet Angie halfway and take my flowers from her. God they were gorgeous.

"Shall I read the card for you Bella?" Angie wiggled her eyebrows at me as she reached for the card. I don't think so heifer.

"I'll just take that, thank you very much." I smiled widely as she gave up the card.

Walking back to my desk, I put them in the spot that had quickly become the "spot for Edward's weekly flower delivery" and took the card in my hand so I could sit down and read it. I took a whiff of one of the roses and naturally they smelled divine. As soon as I opened the card and began to read, I felt those familiar butterflies in my stomach. Even all the way from Oklahoma, Edward had the power to render me a quivering mass of Bella goo.

Hey Darlin':

I woke up this morning and had the sudden urge to send you flowers. I seem to be having that urge a lot lately. These flowers pale in comparison to your beauty Bella. I miss you so damn much Sweetheart. I'm sorry we can't be together for my birthday. You don't know how sorry I am, but I understand completely. Take care Beautiful, and be careful at the conference. I'll talk to you when you get back.

All my Love, Edward XOXO

God, now I missed him even more. It had been three months since Edward and I went our separate ways after the rodeo here in Houston. We had made a commitment the last night of the rodeo to be officially together and entered into this long distance relationship; me in Texas, and him in Oklahoma. We both had good intentions about visiting each other on the weekends, flying to be together or even meeting halfway, but life has so far gotten in the way. Between Edward's rodeo schedule and travel, and my work as a CPA and Swan Song gigs, we haven't been able to see each other at all. Thank God for Skype and Face Time. Even those were getting old. I needed to feel Edward's arms around me again. I needed his lips on mine. I needed his hands on me, on my body, in a desperate way. More than that, I needed him.

We thought we would finally be able to get together for Edward's birthday, which was this coming weekend. I was going to fly up to Oklahoma and spend three days with him. Unfortunately those plans were squashed by my boss, James, when he informed me he had booked myself and Angela at an Accounting Conference in Delaware the same weekend. I nearly threw a sexually frustrated temper tantrum when he told me. I tried everything I could think of to get out of it, but in the end there was no hope. I had no choice.

Edward had been upset when I first told him I had to cancel our plans, but his good manners prevented him from voicing his true opinion. I had gotten to know his quirks quite well from just our conversations. He couldn't hide it completely.

Luckily the rest of my day went by quickly. We had a gig tonight in Katy, which was a town on the outskirts of Houston. We were playing at a club called Midnight Rodeo. Since our appearances at The Hideout, several talent scouts had approached us at different venues and watched our performances. So far, nothing had really come out of it but we were ok with that. Alice and Rose had fallen for Jasper and Emmett as well and were making their own long distance relationships work. I had to admit I was very jealous. Each of the girls had seen their guy at least twice since the rodeo ended. I mean, I was genuinely happy for them, but at the same time I was green with envy. Green. Like Edward's eyes. Fuck, Edward's eyes were beautiful. I remember how soft his gaze was as he watched me underneath him in his hotel room. He could set me on fire with his eyes. I squeezed my thighs together at the memory of Cowboy Hotness filling me that night. Yeah, this kind of thinking was going to have me risking my job and flying off to Oklahoma to see my cowboy, consequences be damned.

Another interesting development had occurred in my life since the rodeo ended. I had received a call from none other than Mama Cullen. Esme told me she had to at least talk to "the woman that has stolen my son's heart". Apparently Edward hadn't shut up about me since he'd been back from Houston. His mother and I had forged a wonderful friendship even though we'd never laid eyes on each other. It's amazing to me how you can feel so connected to someone you've never met. She told me in no uncertain terms that Edward had completely fallen in love with me. My stomach did a flip flop after that declaration because let's face it, I felt it too. I know. Believe me, I know. It's too soon. But it's strong and can't be denied. From the first night I locked eyes with my green eyed Cowboy Hotness I knew. I knew I was his.

Dammit all to fucking hell. I was pissed. Bella's fucking boss had booked her at a fucking accounting conference in Dubai or Dingleberry, or some stupid place that started with a D that wasn't Oklahoma. Finally, I was going to see my beautiful brown eyed cowgirl, and for my birthday even. I had been so fucking off the charts happy. Then she called and told me about her dickhead boss and the conference. I told her I understood, and to an extent, I did. But fuck! I missed her like crazy. The night she came to my hotel room after I won the championship in Houston, I didn't think it was possible to be more taken with her. Over the last three months, we hadn't been able to see each other once. AT ALL. Well, we did have Face Time and Skype but whatever. It wasn't the same as holding her, and smelling her hair, and caressing her silky skin. I felt my cock twitching at the memory and I had to lasso that fucker back down. He was getting tired of Rosy and her five sisters and he wanted the real thing. Yeah, I know that sounds like all I wanted Bella for was sex, but that wasn't what it was about. Sure, that was a fantastic bonus, but I just missed her. All of her. We didn't get nearly enough time together in Houston.

Sighing, I decided I needed to grab a shower before I headed out with the guys to celebrate my birthday. They wanted to head to a new place in Lawton for dinner and some drinks. My mom and dad were going to meet us there.

Two hours later, I was nursing my third beer at a place called Elmo's. Emmett was singing karaoke with my father. I couldn't help the smirk on my face as I watched them. My dad hardly ever drank, but tonight he had let his hair down. He was fucked up.

"Hey birthday boy. What's with the long face?" My mom always knew when I was upset.

"Ah, same shit different day. I'm just tired Mama. That's all." I offered her a weak smile.

"Bullshit Edward Anthony. You can't fool your Mama. You are thinking about Bella." She raised a perfectly arched eyebrow at me.

"Yeah, well. Not much I can do about it. So on that note, would you care to dance?" I held out my hand to her and she took it immediately. Luckily karaoke had ended and the real music started back up. I maneuvered us to the middle of the dance floor and brought Mama closer to me. It was one of her favorite old country music songs, Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes by George Jones.

"You know Edward, sometimes things just take their time. You can't rush it with Bella. I've gotten to know that young lady over the last few months through texts and calls. She's all in this with you, Baby Boy." She looked up at me with so much love that I almost faltered in my dance steps.

"I know that Mama. I do. And I'm all in it too. I just miss her. I sound like a lovesick puppy don't I?"

"Just a little bit." She winked at me as the song came to an end and I dipped her dramatically.

"Thanks for the dance Mama. And thanks for your words." I leaned down to kiss her cheek just as my Dad came over to steal her from me for the next dance. Turning her over to him, I made my way back to the bar and ordered another beer. I looked around and saw that Jasper and Emmett were playing a game of pool so I was going to head over there once I got my beer. When I felt a warm hand on my shoulder, I quickly looked back and into the ice blue eyes of a tall blonde woman.

"Hey Cowboy. Would you like to buy a lady a drink?" She ran a well-manicured fingernail up and down my forearm.

"I'm sorry ma'am. It sounds like a tempting offer, but I don't think my girlfriend would be happy about me doing that." I paid for my beer and tipped my hat to her as I walked off, leaving her standing at the bar.

As I approached the pool table, Emmett was shaking his head. Jasper was standing off to the side holding a pool cue.

"What's so funny asshole?" I walked up to Em and took a pull from my beer.

"I think you hurt somebody's feelings man. Did that woman hit on you or something?"

"Not really, shit I don't know. She asked if I'd buy her a drink. I said my girlfriend wouldn't be happy about that and walked away. No big deal." Just then Jasper chimed in.

"Well, don't look now, but I don't think she's giving up so easily." He gestured behind me and when I turned around, this same woman was standing beside me. Fuck. What is it with these women that don't get a fucking clue? I didn't want to be nasty to her but if I had to I would.

"So are you gonna tell me your name cowboy?" She was standing way too close to me.

"Look honey, I don't want to be rude to you ok? I'm by all rights a gentleman and I would hope you would respect the fact that I'm just not interested." I tried to turn away from her but she caught my elbow and pulled me back around. I heard Jasper snicker. Yeah, thanks for the help fucker.

"One dance Cowboy. That's all I ask. If you don't like the way I feel in your arms then I'll leave you alone. But I promise you won't be disappointed. I'm Vicky, by the way."

"Ok Vicky, here's the deal. You're gonna walk back to wherever it is you came from and forget you ever saw me. I am in a serious relationship with a woman that I happen to be madly in love with. She's the only one I want to feel in these arms. So you just have a good night now." I patted her on the shoulder and headed back to the table where my parents were watching the exchange between myself and this woman.

"Hey guys, I'm gonna take off. This place has lost my interest all of a sudden. Thanks for coming out tonight ya'll. I'm just not in a party kind of mood."

"Ok son, are you ok to drive?" My dad asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine Dad. After dealing with that bullshit I'm stone cold sober. Night ya'll." I hugged my mother, waved to Em and Jazz and made my way out to my truck, wanting to do nothing but get home and talk to Bella.

Once I got home and settled in bed, I called Bella. Yeah, she'd probably be asleep but at this point, I needed to talk to her, to hear her voice. Fuck, what time is it in Doppleganger or wherever the fuck she was? I guess I was about to find out. Her phone rang three times and I heard her groggy, sleep filled voice.

"Edward? What's wrong?" God she sounded adorable.

"Hey Darlin'. I know I woke you up baby, but I fucking missed you so much Bella. I just wanted to hear your voice."

"It's ok Cowboy. You know I'll talk to you anytime. How was your birthday dinner?"

"The dinner was great…we had a nice time for the most part. I think everyone is tired of my moody ass." I chuckled lightly at my sarcasm.

"I'm sorry Edward. I'm sorry I didn't get to come see you. This stupid conference is boring as hell. I don't know why it was so damn important for me to be here. I'd rather be wrapped around your hot ass body right now." The little minx was giving me a fucking hard on.

"Shit Bella, you can't say stuff like that to me when we're thousands of miles apart. It's not nice to tease your cowboy, Darlin'." I couldn't help but palm my throbbing erection to ease some of the pain I was feeling. It was turning out to be another cold shower kind of night.

"Well if it makes you feel any better, Miss Kitty misses you just as much as you miss her. She's getting really tired of the pulsating shower head. Although, when the shower's on it's loud enough to cover my moans when I call out your name." MOTHERFUCKER.

"Isabella…" I warned. My control was slipping quickly. "When I get my hands on you baby, you won't be able to remember your own fucking name. Do you hear me Darlin'? You won't be able to walk right for weeks. That. Pussy. Belongs. To. Me." I heard her whimper so I continued. "Bella, are you alone?"

"No, Angela and I had to share a room." Well fuck. I wonder if she would…nah, I can't ask her that. Can I?

"Can you be quiet baby? If I get you off, can you be quiet?" I was already looking in the drawer for my lotion.

"Oh God Cowboy, I don't think I can be quiet. I need you so much Edward."

"I'm gonna give you what you need Darlin' but you have to be quiet. Just lay down, take those little tiny panties off and cover up. Do you have ear buds with you baby?"

"Yes." I could hear her moving around and getting settled, so I did the same thing.

"Are you covered up baby? Is my sweet pussy bare for me?" I started to rub my aching cock slowly.

"Yes Edward. I'm ready. So ready."

"Ok Sweetheart, you don't say anything else ok? Just listen to my words Bella. I need you to do exactly what I say. I'm gonna get both of us off together." She didn't respond, but I could hear her breathing getting rougher. I began to slowly stroke myself as I talked.

"I want you to rub that sweet pussy baby. Just on the outside though. Get it nice and wet for me. Rub it like I would if I was there Bella." I heard her moan softly and that went directly to my cock. My own breath was getting labored.

"Damn baby, I can hear how wet you are. I need you to slide two fingers inside yourself baby girl. With your thumb, I want you to rub that beautiful little clit in tight, quick circles. Damn baby, I wish I was putting my tongue all over your pussy. God you taste like heaven sweet girl." I had to slow down or I would finish before Bella got there.

"Curl those fingers Darlin'. Tap that spot that I love. Can you feel it? Shit, I bet you're dripping for me. Are you close baby?" Her breathless moan assured me she was ready. I was about to lose my shit too.

"Come on baby. Give it to me Bella….let me have it sweet girl. Come for me Beautiful." As if her body had a light switch, she responded to my voice immediately. I heard her sharp intake of air and my name was barely a whisper, but it was there. As soon as I was sure she had come, I let myself roar out her name as I spilled all over my stomach and chest. Fuck that was good.

"Damn Edward that was…I can't even begin to tell you how much I needed that. Thank you baby."

"Oh fuck Sweetheart. I needed that baby. Thank YOU. You didn't wake Angela did you?" I stifled a laugh just imagining Bella's co-worker hearing her.

"I don't think so but at this point I don't much care."

We talked a little while longer. I told Bella about my next big rodeo. I was competing in the legendary Calgary Stampede for the first time in my career. It was a ten day event up in Alberta, Canada. It started at the beginning of July. I would be leaving here at the end of June and flying into Calgary a few days before the Stampede began. Jasper wasn't going to compete so it would just be me along with my parents making the trip. I secretly hoped Bella would want to come with me but I didn't think she would want to go so far from home.

After we hung up the phone, I fell into a deep sleep for the first time in a long while, dreaming of my brown eyed beauty the entire night.

"Bella Swan." My office phone had just begun to ring as soon as I sat down at my desk.

"Hey Sweet girl, it's Esme. Do you have just a minute honey?"

"Of course I do. Is everything ok?"

"Oh sure, I just called to ask you something. So you know that we are leaving for Calgary tomorrow morning right?"

"Yes ma'am. Edward said ya'll would be there for two weeks."

"Bella, would it be possible for you to join us for at least a week? Edward would absolutely love it and I'd like to surprise him. Carlisle and I would be happy to fly you out as soon as you are available. Please Bella? It'll be our treat. What do you say?" Oh my God.

"Oh Esme, you don't know how much I would love that, but I doubt I can get that much time off, especially with such late notice. Plus we have a couple gigs lined up next weekend. Let me see what I can work out and I'll get back to you later today. And Esme, that's so sweet of you and Carlisle to offer, but I wouldn't feel right about ya'll paying for me to fly out."

"Oh hush now, we want to do this Bella. You should see Edward. He looks like someone kicked his kitten. I just want to see my baby boy smile again. I think you're the key little lady."

"You certainly drive a hard bargain Mrs. Cullen. Ok, let me go speak to my boss and see what I can come up with."

"Great sweetie. I look forward to hearing from you. Keep this under your hat now. We want Edward to be totally surprised." I got off the phone and made my way to James' office to beg for time off. After sending me to that stupid ass conference he owed me one.

Thirty minutes later I was heading home to pack my suitcase. Somehow, by the grace of God and all that is holy, James approved my vacation request. I had originally asked for a week. I would be completely happy with that. What I hadn't planned on was the fact that James was a PBR fan and knew who Edward Cullen was. When he figured out that Edward was my boyfriend, I believe I could have gotten anything I wanted from the man. He told me to take two full weeks off in exchange for Edward making an appearance at his daughter's Sweet Sixteen birthday party three months from now. Apparently she was just as much a PBR fan as her father and had a major crush on Edward. I did tell him I'd have to make sure Edward's schedule would allow it and that he could do it, but I didn't see a problem other than that. The next issue was the fact that Swan Song had two gigs in the time I would be gone. I would just have to fly back for the gigs and then back to Edward. It didn't matter. All I wanted to do was spend some time with my Cowboy. Everything else would just work itself out.

Twenty four hours later, I was landing in Calgary. Edward, Esme, and Carlisle had arrived earlier in the day and I was booked on a later flight. I was practically vibrating when we landed at Calgary International Airport. As soon as I could turn my phone on, I texted Esme.

I'm here! Just getting my rental car and will head to the hotel. -B

She apparently had been waiting on me because her reply was almost immediate.

Wonderful! Edward just told us he was going to his hotel room to take a shower and go to bed. Said he was tired. Works perfectly don't you think? *wink wink* We are at the Hyatt Regency near the Stampede grounds. His room number is 1628. See you soon! –Es

Is it weird that she "winked" at me knowing what Edward and I would be doing in his hotel room? Whatever. I had a feeling Esme and I were going to be best friends!

Once I got my rental, I grabbed my suitcase and programmed the address of the hotel into the GPS. It was supposed to be a little more than a thirty minute drive to the hotel as long as traffic wasn't too bad. I may have made it in just under thirty minutes. Apparently I was excited to see Cowboy Hotness.

I pulled into the underground parking garage at the hotel and had to take a couple deep breaths. I was shaking with excitement. Edward was just a few floors away from me now. It was almost too good to be true.

After I composed myself, I made it to the lobby and into the elevator. Fuck, this has to be the slowest elevator ever. I gave myself a quick once-over to make sure I looked ok. I was wearing my denim miniskirt, the same one I wore the night Edward and I met. He mentioned how much he loved it. I also had on my cowboy boots and a white t-shirt and my black leather vest. I left my hair down, in loose curls and touched up my makeup while I was in the car.

Finally the elevator opened to the sixteenth floor and I wheeled my suitcase out, looking for room 1628. It was down the corridor a bit and as soon as I saw it, my steps quickened, along with my heart. After being away from Edward for nearly three and a half months, he was just on the other side of this door. I couldn't wait any longer as I reached up and knocked on the door harder than I meant to. I heard Edward say "just a minute" and could hear rustling around. A moment later, I saw the knob turn and when the door opened, I lost my breath momentarily but quickly regained my composure.

"Hey Cowboy. Is there room in there for me?" I smiled and winked at a very stunned Edward. A very stunned, fuckhot looking Edward, wearing jeans that were unbuttoned, and his fucking black felt cowboy hat. THAT'S. IT. It took a few seconds for realization to dawn on his face, but I knew the moment it did because I found myself in the air being spun around.

"BELLA! BABY! OH MY GOD! HOW? WHEN DID YOU? FUCK BABY KISS ME." His lips claimed mine and we both stumbled. My back hit the wall and my legs wrapped around his waist as he kissed me senseless. When I felt him hard against my dampening center I snapped back to reality and remembered we were in public.

"Edward, we need to go inside. Now." He looked up at me with lust filled, hooded eyes.

"Yes, we do. I plan to stay INSIDE for the rest of the night Darlin'." He let me down gently back to the floor and grabbed my bags, motioning for me to step inside his room. Once the door closed and locked, our clothes began to fly in every direction and we were frantic. It appeared it was going to be a very long, very BUSY night.

A/N: **fans herself** Sorry, I'm still picturing shirtless Edward in unbuttoned jeans and a cowboy hat. Damn that's good! Phew…ok, special thanks to AlbertaGirl78 for being my source for all things Calgary and Stampede related in this chapter! I hope everyone likes where this is going. Next time we'll have their…um…reunion…and getting reacquainted. **snicker** it may be rather lemony with lots of citrus. Is that ok with ya'll? See you soon! Xoxo Shannnon
