***STEPHENIE MEYER OWNS ALL THINGS TWILIGHT***

A/N: I have been blown away by the love this story has received so far. Thank you for making this one of my most successful fics yet! So many of you have become very special to me and I look forward to hearing from you, whether it be here in a review or in the Facebook group I share with AlbertaGirl78. You all mean the world to this Texas girl! Smooches! Now let's see if CPAella gets that job in Lawton….and what will happen to Swan Song? Read on!

The interview with Hatch Croke & Associates was a complete success and within two days of it, they called me back and offered me the position. Now, I had some big decisions to make. One of the major things I needed to discuss with the other people it concerned was Swan Song and its future. Singing was my true passion and I had to admit, since I met Edward and the girls met Em and Jazz, we had sort of let the group go for a bit, only doing gigs here and there. I knew I never wanted to stop singing, but I needed to see how Rose and Alice felt.

Edward was ecstatic when I told him I now had a job in Lawton. He began to make plans for my move immediately. Tonight, the girls were coming over and I was fixing my famous lasagna. They knew about the job and my impending move and I wasn't all together sure they hadn't been planning moves in the near future too. I was just putting the lasagna in the oven when I heard Rosalie's voice as they entered my apartment.

"Were here bitch!" Rose came in carrying a couple bottles of wine and Alice was right behind her with a couple more.

"Damn heifers, if we drink all that wine we're gonna be fucked up." I shook my head as they both looked at me like I was an alien.

"Oh Bella, get the stick out of your ass already. You've been wound too tight lately. We are here to let our hair down tonight." Alice said as she made her way into the kitchen to put the wine in the refrigerator.

"Well, we have about an hour before dinner is ready so pour us some wine and let's go sit and talk a bit." They nodded and Rose got our wine while Alice and I carried the appetizer plate I had put together to the living room and got comfortable. Once we all had some wine and snacks I thought I should start the discussion I had been dreading.

"So you know I was offered a position at a firm in Lawton and I accepted it. I'll be moving there in the next month. We need to discuss the group. I don't want ya'll to think I'm deserting Swan Song. There are three of us in this group and there are some decisions that we need to make."

"Well, Jasper and I have talked about me moving up there in the near future. I wanted to start looking into job prospects in that area as well." Alice took a sip of her wine and smiled. Both of us looked to Rosalie.

"Well, you know Emmett would love for me to move up there, but I'm not sure I'm ready for that yet. Don't get me wrong, I am totally in love with him and he's in love with me but I feel like we would be rushing it if I moved up there right now. So that being said, how about if Swan Song takes a little hiatus?"

"That's ok with me if it's ok with you two. In no way am I saying we won't get the group back together eventually, but right now I think that given the fact that we are all in fairly new relationships, we should give those first priority for a bit." Both of them nodded and agreed with me and I immediately felt so much better. I was glad that they were so receptive and willing to compromise.

"Ok bitches, since the heavy stuff is over let's crack open another bottle of wine and get shit faced." Rosalie jumped up to grab another bottle just as my cell phone chimed with a text. I smiled when I saw it was Cowboy Hotness.

Hey Darlin'…a little birdie told me you are having a girl's night in tonight. Will there be alcohol and nakedness? God I hope so. XOXO E

He was such a horny ass. I decided to play with him a bit. I adjusted my shirt down a little bit to show some amazing cleavage and snapped a picture. Attaching it to my text I upped the ante a bit.

Well, I hadn't planned on nakedness so this is the best I can do baby. Do you like my new bra? XO –B

His reply was almost instant. There was a picture attached and my heart leapt when I imagined what it might be.

Let's play a game. You send me a picture of any part of your beautiful body and I will send you the corresponding body part on my end. Like this… xo E

Opening the attachment, I swooned just a little bit. Edward had snapped a picture of his naked chest, and God did it look amazing.

"Um, Bella what are you doing? Please tell me you aren't sexting with Edward." Alice rolled her eyes.

"Not yet. I just sent him a picture so he wouldn't forget what I looked like. Then he sent one back. No biggie." I shrugged. Both of them rolled their eyes. I quickly texted Edward back and told him we would continue this later when I got rid of the girls.

We drank the remaining bottles of wine and to say I was a bit buzzed might have been the understatement of the year. I wasn't letting the girls leave since they weren't in any better shape than I was so we all piled into my king sized bed and passed out.

The next morning, we woke up with headaches the size of Texas and swore off wine forever. Everyone had a shower and some breakfast and left. I needed to get a little bit of work done so I went into my home office and dove into tax forms and receipts for the next several hours. I was wrapping up current issues I had been working on and given James my notice. I had also begun to pack up some things little by little to prepare for my move.

There was one thing we had to do before I moved and that was attend James' daughter's sweet sixteen party. It was this coming weekend and Edward was flying in on Friday morning. It was also the weekend of my birthday, which was actually the same day as the party, Saturday. Edward said he planned to take me out after we left James's house. I couldn't wait to see my cowboy. It had been a month since we saw each other in Dallas. We tried to get together once or twice since then but naturally things didn't work out. I smiled thinking that pretty soon I would wake up next to Edward every day. I couldn't wait for that.

"Come on Jasper…fuck. How long does it take a fucking man to fix his god damned hair?" I was losing my patience with this fucker. I had to get to the jewelry store before they closed so I could pick up Bella's engagement ring. I was going to propose to her Saturday night, on her birthday and had the ring sent off to get engraved. If we didn't make it to the store in time I wouldn't be able to propose this weekend because I was flying out early tomorrow morning. Jasper was taking me to the store because my truck was in the shop. He would be taking me to the airport tomorrow morning also. Currently he was fucking around with his hair. I didn't understand that shit at all. Mine always looked like I had been in a whirlwind or some shit and I could have cared less. Not Jasper. Oh hell no. His ass used so much "product", as he called it, in his hair that he should really be a damn woman, Jaspette or some shit like that.

"Calm down Fucknut, I'm ready. Shit. You act like if you don't get there this second they are going to close. Have you forgotten that I watch NASCAR? I can get us there." He winked at me and I had to stop myself from throat punching his ass.

"Let's go man. I can't wait anymore." I walked out of the house and got into Jasper's truck. I knew I was acting like a child, but this was so important. I found Bella what I thought was the perfect ring. My mother had given me the three carat diamond out of her first engagement ring so I could put it in a new setting for Bella. Dad had given Mom a new wedding set on their 25th Wedding Anniversary. I picked out the setting that I thought Bella would love and had an inscription engraved on the inside of the wedding band. It was going to say 'Forever His EAC' and my wedding band would say 'Forever Hers IMC'. Yeah I know, maybe it's a bit cheesy but I didn't give a shit. Bella turned me into a cheeseball and I was fine with it.

Jasper actually did get me there on time and I picked up the rings. As soon as I got home I tucked them into my suitcase. Hopefully things would turn out like I planned. Now, I just had to get through a Sweet Sixteen party.

Bella was picking me up at the airport and I couldn't fucking wait to see her. It had been too damn long. As the plane landed I had to physically restrain myself in the seat to avoid trampling people to death in my rush to exit the plane. Finally after what felt like an eternity I was off the plane and headed into the airport. We had arranged to meet in the baggage claim area and I couldn't get there fast enough.

The first thing I saw was her hair. She was facing away from me looking at her iPhone. Trying to be sneaky, I walked up behind her and quietly placed my backpack on the ground. I'm probably going to end up getting kneed in the balls for this but I'll deal with that. She was so engrossed in her phone she never heard me behind her. I quickly scooped her up in my arms and pulled her to my body.

"Motherfucker!" She screamed and wiggled around in my arms, knocking off my cowboy hat before she realized it was me.

"Settle down there Darlin'. It's just me." I leaned in to kiss her and was met with a smack to the face. Ok, so perhaps my plan wasn't very well thought out.

"Edward fucking Cullen! Don't you ever sneak up on me again you bastard! You scared the shit out of me." She had a small smile threatening to erupt but she quickly stifled it. I stood back with my hands held up in surrender.

"I'm sorry Sweetheart. I didn't mean to scare you." I took a tentative step toward her and she immediately fell into my embrace. Phew. I thought I had really fucked up for a moment.

Bella wrapped her arms around my neck and her tongue made its way into my waiting mouth. God she tasted better than I remembered. I kissed her back for all she was worth. When we were both breathless I pulled back because if I didn't we would find ourselves with a public lewdness charge. I wasn't one to mess with Texas law enforcement either.

"As much as I'd like to claim what's mine right here, right now, the only claiming I better do is my luggage." I winked at her and tucked her into my side as we made our way to the baggage carousel.

Once we found my suitcase, we headed out to Bella's Silverado. She knew how much I loved it so she tossed me the keys right away.

"Where to Sweetheart?" I wiggled my eyebrows at her suggestively.

"Home Edward. I need to fuck you senseless." My eyes bugged out at her candid comment and my cock took notice.

"Yes ma'am Miss Bella."

We made it to her apartment in record time. Before I knew what was happening, I found myself shirtless, my belt unbuckled and my jeans half way down my legs. Bella was pushing me down on her bed.

"Slow down darlin'. We have all weekend." I reached up and guided her waiting mouth to mine. "God baby you taste amazing. But I need to taste that pussy." She smiled and threw herself on her back.

"Well Cowboy, who am I to deny you. Get in where you fit in." Oh no she did not!

I pushed her legs apart rather roughly and dove in head first. Her taste was nothing like I had ever had before. She was like a fucking drug to me.

"Mmm Bella, your pussy is so fucking delicious. I could lick and kiss and suck on you all day long. How about I do just that baby? Will you let me eat this pussy all day?"

"Fuck yes Edward. All damn day." The moans were accompanied by more wetness than I had seen in a long time. I slowly placed two fingers inside her and began to work them around as my tongue found her hot button. She arched up into me and came hard without warning, my name like an anthem on her lips.

"Fuuuuuccckkkkkkk Edward….MMMMMMM" I kept pumping her slowly until she came down from her orgasmic high.

"I hope you're ready Sweetheart, I need to get this cock inside you." I flipped us so that she was on top of me. "Wanna ride your Cowboy Isabella?" I smirked.

"Oh God yes." She raised herself slightly and grabbed my straining cock in her hot little hand as she guided me into Heaven. We both moaned when I was sheathed in her wet warmth.

"Fuck baby you feel good. Give me just a second before you move." I took a deep breath and fought with everything I had not to bust a nut immediately. After a few seconds I nodded at her and began to gently move her hips.

"Dammit Cowboy I missed you. Need….to….go…faster….Edward." Her wish was my command.

"Hold on then little darlin', because this eight second ride is just about to take off." I wiggled my eyebrows at her as I grasped her hips tight and sat up. I wrapped myself around her and began to slam her down on my cock. It was fucking amazing.

"Fuck you look good riding my cock Bella. I want you all the time baby. Morning, noon, and night." I felt her walls flutter and I knew she was close. I shifted my hips slightly, giving me a new angle and she came immediately.

"Son of a bitch god dammit Edward!" She was breathless as I felt my own orgasm completely take me. I buried my head in her shoulder and she squeezed me tight.

"Ffffuuucckkkkk Belllllllaaaa" I soared over the edge and I never wanted it to end.

The rest of the day went by quickly. We grabbed dinner at a seafood restaurant near her apartment and went to bed early. I had never been so happy in my life.

Waking up beside Edward was something I always looked forward to. I couldn't believe that soon I would get to do it every day. We made love twice after we woke up and finally made it to the shower to get ready for the Sweet Sixteen party. Today was my birthday and we were going out dancing after the party. I walked out of the bathroom and into my bedroom and stopped short when I noticed the candles everywhere. The lights had been turned down and there was a bottle of champagne chilling beside the bed. On the nightstand, was a tray of chocolate covered strawberries. I noticed soft music playing through the sound system and I recognized the song immediately. It was Martina McBride with Pat Monahan from Train singing Marry Me. OH FUCK.

I whirled around to the bedroom door and lost my breath. There, standing in the doorway, wearing black Wranglers, black boots, a royal blue button down shirt and black blazer and that hot as hell belt and buckle was Cowboy Hotness. The black felt cowboy hat on his head put an exclamation point to his perfection. My mouth was on the floor as he stalked over to me.

"Sweetheart, come sit for a second." I managed to get my feet to work and sat on the edge of my bed.

"Edward, what's going on?" My hands were already shaking.

He got down on one knee and took his cowboy hat off, placing it beside me on the bed, he took my hands in his. "Isabella Marie Swan, the first night I saw you, the MOMENT I saw you, I knew that I had to make you mine. You have changed my life and made me a better man. My greatest hope is that you'll make me your husband, the father of your children, and your soulmate for the rest of our lives. Baby, will you please marry me?" He took out a little black box and opened it to reveal the most beautiful diamond ring I had ever seen. My eyes clouded with tears and I couldn't find my voice. Taking a deep breath, I made the decision that would cement my future.

"Yes Edward! A million times yes!"

Edward and I finished getting dressed to go to the party and discussed my move to Lawton. He was so excited he could hardly contain himself. When we finally arrived at the party, James was acting more like a "fan girl" than his daughter, Mollie.

"James, this is my fiancé, Edward Cullen. Baby, this is James, my boss."

"It's great to meet you James. Thank you for allowing Bella the time off a little while back to come to Calgary with me. That was really nice of you." Edward shook James' hand and I thought James might faint. It wasn't until we heard a loud squeal and a few screams that James came back to the here and now.

"Oh my God! Edward is here! Oh my GOOOOODDDDDD!" He never saw her coming. Before I knew what happened, there was a very enthusiastic sixteen year old girl wrapped completely around my fiancé. Mollie had launched herself at Edward from halfway across the room. His natural reaction of course, was to catch her.

"Mollie Renee! Get off Mr. Cullen right now!" I had to bite back my snicker, but this shit was hilarious. The look on Edward's face was priceless. His eyes were wide, his mouth was open, which was a mistake because before he could close it, Mollie attempted to check his tonsils. Ok, so this is where I was going to draw the line.

"Hey Mollie, how about you back up off my fiancé? Don't be acting like a crazy person." She hopped down, looking properly chastised. James was beet red and apologizing profusely. Edward, the gentleman that he is assured James there was no hard feelings and offered to sign some autographs or whatever the girls wanted.

Several hours later, my gorgeous Edward looked like he had been through the ringer. We were in the truck on our way back to the apartment. We decided to forego dinner out and spend the rest of the night together in bed.

"Hey Cowboy, you ok there?" My smirk couldn't be hidden.

"My God baby, I have never seen more….um….excited teenaged girls. I feel….violated." He frowned and shuddered.

"No worries Edward. I'll make sure to violate you several different ways soon as we get home." I winked at him and blew him a kiss.

"I'm counting on it Sweetheart. Happy Birthday Baby."

As soon as we got home I proved to Edward just how much I wanted to marry him. Cowboy Hotness was still blowing my mind. When we were together, it seemed like we got closer and closer as the hours passed. Now, I had his ring on my finger. I was going to be Isabella Cullen. I was closing a chapter of my life while opening an even more beautiful one. This one included the man of my dreams. What more could any woman ask for?

A/N: He popped the question…..she said yes! Next up, Lawton!
