AN: I never update so quickly so enjoy this chapter!

I've always wondered if I've ever passed by one of you guys. Imagine that this whole time that you've been falling in love with this story, that you and I are friends and you could've been asking for spoilers before I ever posted it! Maybe we're neighbors? Maybe you hated me in high school? Maybe you sit in front of me in our class. I don't know why I thought about this. Just a random thought that I wanted to share with you lovely readers.

"Bella, you are going to be a contestant on Finding Mrs. Right!" Alice cheered, oblivious to the horror that was evident on my face. Now, I've never been one to swear, but all I heard were curse words exploding in my head.

Instead of giving into the crude vocabulary, I simply barked out, "No."

My friend released her grip and the both of them turned to face me. They've always done this to me- they both turned on me to guilt me into doing what they wanted. But not this time.

"Bella, this could be good for you." Rosalie started.

"How? How will spending weeks with terrible people be even remotely beneficial?" I challenged.

"You don't know that everyone in that house will be horrible." Alice suggested.

Rosalie added, "Yeah. You never know the amazing connections that you can make…"

"I doubt that I would want to form any friendship with anyone that voluntarily agreed to compete for one man. Girls are vicious- they'll be nasty, we have watched the terrible things they'll do as they try and get their prize. Need I remind you that their goal isn't even true love! It is women that are looking for their ten minutes of fame!"

"Bella, it could be an experience. An adventure. When's the last time you've done anything that's made you feel daring?" Rosalie asked softly, knowing where she was hitting me.

I tried not to wince, but it did hurt. All my life, I lived as the cautious Chief of Police's daughter. I have never done anything that… is worth remembering. They both knew that I'm scared of living my life in the same dull ways that I have been. I didn't want to be so… by the book anymore. I didn't want to be afraid of living anymore.

The girls must have taken my silence as doubt because Alice chimed in, "If you do it we won't do Bella Barbie or make you go shopping with us for a month!"

That was all I needed to hear. "What the hell! I'll do it." I said, hoping I wouldn't regret it. This can just be something fun to do. Something.

My friends squealed and pulled me into a hug. That was when I noticed that we were still in the park, with other people judging us for making so much noise.

"Okay, well is there anything that I need to sign?" I asked, a smile on my face. Alice and Rosalie shot me innocent expressions. I felt my euphoria plummet. "What? What did you guys do?"

"Well, honestly Bella, we thought it was going to take a lot longer to convince you- and sign-ups were ending soon!- so we sort of took the liberty of forging your signature on the contract… Filled out all the required information…" Alice avoided my eye contact while Rosalie smiled sheepishly.

They… are impossible.

They're your best friends. A smug voice chimed in the back of my head. Shut up.

I was lounging in my apartment in California, my feet up on the table and a bowl of Lucky Charms in my arms. Family Guy was on the screen as I tried to enjoy my day off. Usually, I would not bother to remember such insignificant details like the cereal I was eating or the exact placement of my body- but this was a landmark in my life.

After shoveling one more spoonful of cereal into my mouth, my phone rang.

"Hello?" I answered.

"Hi there. May I speak to Edward Cullen?" The man on the other end asked.

"This is he."

"Mister Cullen! This is Tyler with Finding Mrs. Right! We wanted to let you know that you have been selected to be Season 13s Mister Right. I wanted to know when you and I could schedule a meeting so we may inform you with what being Mister Right on our show will entail." Oh shit. That bet with Jasper was over three weeks ago. I had almost completely forgotten about it. Jasper watched me fill in the paper work to become a contestant for that television show, and I figured that there was a slim shot that I'd even be picked… I was hoping I wouldn't. Tyler seemed to be alarmed by the silence. "Um… Mister Cullen? Are you still there?"

"Er, yes. Yes, I am. Sorry. I just… can't believe this."

"Yes, it's all very exciting! When can we schedule a meeting?"

"I'm free all of today." I didn't really hear myself talk. I was having a sort of out of body experience.

"Perfect! I will have a car sent for you today at 12:30 so we can have lunch. Is that alright?"

"Yeah."

"Okay. Then you have a great day. I will be seeing you soon!" And that was when he hung up.

I can't believe this is happening to me.

I dialed my brother.

"What's up?" Jasper asked in a formal voice. Despite the other night's craziness, Jasper is polite and formal. Alcohol just happens to bring up any of the erratic behaviors that Esme had disciplined out of us.

"They picked me." Was all I could say.

"What? Who picked-" I practically heard it click. He let out a burst of laughter. "Finding Mrs. Right wants you to be their contestant?"

I nodded. But when I realized that he could not see me, I gave him a vocal affirmation.

"Wow. Give me the details! I can't wait to find out who the contestants are! Where will it be?" Jasper was extremely excited for two reasons; one- he knew that I was going to loathe every single second. Two- he was weirdly in love with the show. I know he isn't gay, but I always teased him anyways. I had made fun of him the other night, which was the whole reason for him creating that bet.

Well played, karma. Well played.

"I really don't have any information. But tonight I'm going to meet with the producer and we will go over details."

"Dude, Esme is so gonna kill you."

Shit.

The meeting with Tyler went smoothly. Now Jasper and Jacob took up my living room, waiting for the details.

"So it's going to be in Washington. Some small town called Forks. They want the whole thing to be 'nature driven' with 'everyday people'. There will be a house where all the girls will stay in two rooms and I will stay in the other half of the house. I will eliminate one girl a week. I have to pick my favorite qualities in a girl and in a relationship so they can form challenges around them."

"Are the girls hot?" Jacob asked, his eyes wide with hunger.

"Stop drooling, idiot." Jasper threw at him.

"Actually, I don't know what any of them look like. He did give me a DVD that has all of the girls' interviews." I held up the DVD and both of them launched towards it.

Jasper ended up getting it and put it in my DVD player.

The first clip was a black screen with white letters. "Jessica. 20"

"That's young!" Jacob said, disgusted. All of us were in our mid twenties, so I agreed.

Jessica appeared on the screen. "Hi, Edward! My name is Jessica and I know I'm your Mrs. Right!" Her voice was very perky in such a way that it set me off. She had brown hair and blue eyes and was very pretty. But it was obvious that she was much too young for me. "I can't wait to see you in person! I know you're my Mister Right. I saw the picture of you and swooned! You are a hunk! We could do so many fun things together!"

Before she could continue to explain what those fun things were, Jasper shouted "boring!" and skipped to the next contestant.

"Angela. 26."

A gorgeous girl with black hair appeared on the screen. She was shooting in her apartment. "Hi Edward, I'm Angela, I'm twenty-six, and I think I'm your Mrs. Right. I actually grew up in Forks, so I feel as though this gives me an advantage. I am still in school, and continuing until I have a Masters in Biology."

"She's got a sexy doctor thing going on." Jasper said. Jacob nodded in agreement.

"I think she's my favorite so far." I stated. We watched Yesenia, Ilianna, Denise, and Brittany's interviews after that. All four were beautiful enough to be on this show. I liked some more than others, but they all pretty much said the exact same thing.

"Tanya. 23."

"Hi Eddie!" All three of us flinched at the sheer volume of the woman that presented herself on my screen. Tanya was wearing pounds of makeup and revealing clothing. "I know that you would be perfect for me! Imagine how gorgeous our babies would look! Anyways, I like shopping, so we would have to do that a lot. It Is important that you have a job. I also don't like it when other people look at what's mine- so don't let me catch another girl looking or I will flip. I love attention cuz I'ma princess and I want to be treated like one. Okay, honey! I am gonna catch ya soon! Bye Eddie!"

"Well…. That was… Different." Jacob said.

Jazz and I nodded in silence.

"Isabella. 22."

The screen was now showing the most beautiful woman on earth. She had a heart-shaped face, brown hair that framed her face, and the most gorgeous brown eyes. The weirdest thing was that those brown eyes were angry.

"Bella!" A girly but demanding voice scolded in the background. "Introduce yourself."

"Hi camera. My name is Isabella, but I insist that you call me Bella." She looked behind the camera sarcastically, as if to say "are you happy now?"

"Why don't you tell the camera why you are on Finding Mrs. Right?" The voice provoked.

A smile crept up on her face, lighting her face up. My God, she was breath taking.

"My best friends are experts at forging signatures, know all my personal information, and we made a deal."

"Ugh! Bella!"

Bella sighed and looked back at the camera."Fine, Alice. So it's true that I initially was not going to apply to be a contestant and only became one because my best friends submitted my information without my knowledge, however, I agreed towards the end. I don't mean to offend you, Edward, I have seen your picture and you are extremely handsome…" She looked down to try and hide the blush that crept up her cheeks. God, she was radiant. "But I'm honestly just doing this because I was tired of living such a predictable life. I lost someone important to me because of his lifestyle, and I was just so fearful after that. I needed a change." Bella shrugged and then laughed to herself. "By the way, I won't be offended when I leave the first round of elimination. I am just doing this to be adventurous. To be free."

"Good job, Bella!" The voice pulled Bella's attention and she smiled before the screen was black.

Wow.

Jasper and Jacob talked about their favorites. Jacob liked Ilianna's naturally curly hair, giving her a wild look. Jasper though that both Brittany and Angela were more intelligent-which he found attractive.

All of these girls were extremely gorgeous, and they all wanted me. All but one.

Isabella. This will be my mission to make you mine.

AN: FUNFACT! I put my name as one of the contestants J He he…. Here's my hint: Jacob thinks my curly hair is sexy! *Sighs dreamily* I wish…

Anyways! I hope you enjoyed! Please review! It makes me ever so happy!

If you read my inquiry at the beginning of the chapter, please respond! It's just so fascinating to me.
