Yesterday sucked. I have to have five surgeries on my jaw. That is, if I go through with it. Which I don't want to. Hehehe.

I'm going to hurry up and update because I have to go say bye to my friend. (sniff, I'll miss her) Then I have to go to work and then I'm going with my future sister-in-law car shopping!

Chapter 19 (Bella's POV)

"Okay, get the band set up on the stage." I ordered to Rosalie, knowing she wouldn't mind. "Alice? Can you get the cowboys to set up the horses?"

"No problem!" She raced off quicker than lightening.

"Bella?" Edward asked, "What else do you need?"

I turned in surprise, "You already have all the food ready?"

He smiled naughtily, "Esme kicked me out of the kitchen."

I laughed, "What'd you do?"

"Just got in a fight with Emmett. Had to clean up the kitchen before I left, though." He said, frowning. Then happily said, "But it was worth it."

"Edward! You made Esme's job even harder!!" Gosh! It was Field's of Fun and he wasn't helping. Okay, now he was, by holding me.

"Oh, Bella, it'll be fine." Edward danced slowly with me while embracing me.

"I know." I said, "But we need to get back to work."

I pulled away and he pouted. I give him a kiss on the lips to make up for it. He took it a little farther, making the quick kiss, slow and deeper.

"Edward," I pulled away once again, but not really wanting to. At all. "You know I wish I could stay like this forever, but—"

"I know, but you better promise me a dance tonight." He said, not letting me out of his arms.

"Sorry, but-"

"Promise." He silenced me.

"N-"

"I'm not taking no for an answer!" He smiled mischievously. "I'll make you dance with Emmett and Jasper and Carlisle. Better promise me!!"

"Fine." Knowing he would actually do it. Who knows! Maybe it would fun.

"HAH! I knew it! You want to dance with me." He smiled triumphly.

I swatted him, "You are crazy, you know that?"

"Love does unusual things." He smiled softly.

"Yes it does." I sighed happily.

"Alright, alright. Get back to work." Edward finally gave in. He stepped away, giving me room.

"Okay, here's your job-make sure everything and everyone is doing their job." I turned and walked away.

"Nuh-uh, that's your job." Edward caught up with me.

I pouted, "Please?"

He was dazzled for a second, but grinned. "Only if you come with me."

"Okay." I happily agreed. We made our rounds and finished, just as the first vehicle pulled up. "Ready?"

"Yup. I guess I'll see ya tonight for our dance." He kissed me and left to his post. Mine would be the horses, not trusting anybody else with them. Sure there would be people helping, but I wanted to make sure everything went fine. After about ten, the people really started showing up. Our long driveway was put to use, I couldn't even see the ending!

"Bella!!!" A little girl came up to me. I picked her up and swung her around.

"And what are you doing?" I asked as I put her on the horse, getting on behind her.

"Riding with you!!" She giggled. I laughed as we started off. Quil's little sister, Ayasha, meaning 'little one'. She was a cutie, full of spirit.

"What else?" I asked as we came back around.

"Well, Quil never comes home anymore. He's always with the huge men." I laughed at her description of Sam and Jake. I had seen Jake, and he was bigger, a lot bigger.

"You miss your brother?" I asked her as we were going to stop.

She nodded, "He never even talks to me."

I frowned, how could he do that? Quil was very protective of his little sister. "Well, maybe that's just because he's a guy. And he's weird."

She giggled. "Yeah."

I got off the horse and set her on the ground. She hugged me, only coming up to my waist. She was only seven. "THANK YOU BELLA!!!"

Before I knew it, she ran off into the crowd. I saw her Dad pick her up and they set off, going somewhere else.

"Hey guys, I'm going to see how the rodeo is going." I told the workers at the pony/horse rides. They nodded and I mounted my horse and set off, going around the people so not to step on them. I stopped at the rodeo stands, looking at the girl doing the barrel racing. She was pretty good, she only knocked two of the barrels down. She looked to be around eleven or twelve years old. After she ended, the crowd cheered. She got off and bowed and quickly exited, taking the horse back to her stall.

The next one was a boy of the same age. He was riding Lizzy. I quickly set off to the entrance, Lizzy wasn't going to be nice. She was almost having a colt! I specifically told them to keep her in her stall!!!! They opened the gate and put the horse in a trot. I heard a 'ah!' (gasp) go through the crowd and I pushed the horse to a gallop to where Lizzy was going wild, making a bucking rodeo instead of barrel racing.

I got off my horse, and went to get the kicking horse. She knew me as I called to her and calmed down. I grabbed the reins and reached up and took the boy off.

"But I wanted to ride!" He said, mad that he didn't get his chance.

I turned, making sure Lizzy was going to be good, "You almost got killed."

He put his nose in the air, "So?"

I restrained myself from telling him-GRRR "Ride my horse."

He got on her and I adjusted the straps to fit his height. I escorted Lizzy to her stall and gave the workers a fine ear yelling. I put a sign, just in case, on Lizzy's stall door.

"Um, Bella?" Gus came up to me. I smiled at him.

"Yes?"

"Uh, this little girl wants to race." I looked to his side and saw a small, timid looking girl.

"Ok, I'll get Abigail."

Her voice stopped me, "But I don't know how!!"

I turned and knelt, to be eye-level with her. "Do you want me to ride with you?"

"Mmm-hmm." She nodded fast, excited.

"Alright, let's go." I took her hand and we set off to the stand. "What's your name?"

"Emmy."

"Well, Emmy, have you ever ridden a horse before?"

"Yes. My daddy let's me." She said, smiling. I waved at Edward, who was coming over.

"Edward, this is Emmy. Emmy, this is Edward." I introduced them.

"Hi." They both said. We were at the entrance and Levi (other worker) had the horse I wanted.

"Hi, Levi!" I said as I grabbed the reins. "This little girl's going barrel racing."

He smiled, "I knew Gus's little girl would."

I put her on the horse, "Gus?"

"Yeah. From his ex-girlfriend." He said, frowning. "She gave him the kid and left."

"Oh." I swung in the saddle and wrapped an arm around her little waist. I smiled to Edward and Levi on the ground. "Wish us luck!"

Carlisle was the announcer for introducing the barrel riders. I put him here because if anybody got hurt, he could help them, since he was a doctor. His voice came over the intercom, "And last one for the young rider's class is Emmy Moss with Bella Swan."

At the sound of the buzzer, I quickly hunched over, pulling Emmy tight to me. We went around the first barrel with no trouble. The last couple barrels, Abigail was getting' tired, but she pulled through, making our time come in first. Emmy cheered when she finally caught her breath. We got off and I told her to bow. As she did, I caught Edward's eye at the entrance. He gave me his crooked dazzling smile and clapped for us.

We left the arena and put Abigail in her stall and watched her as she guzzled down her water. Emmy told Gus what happened, but I knew he watched. Emmy was bursting with joy as she told her story. I left them and went to make sure everything in the kitchen was okay. Hopefully, it was.

"Oh, Emmett!! Be careful!" Was the first thing I heard when I stepped into the house. I saw Esme as she pulled something out of the oven. It smelled wonderful. Emmett was by the food, cleaning up something on the floor.

"How's everything goin'?" I asked.

Emmett smiled up at me. Esme answered, "Oh, just fine."

I laughed, "Esme, we do have enough food for now."

She looked surprised, "Oh?"

"Yes, usually everybody eats around twelve thirty or one. They forget what time it is." I helped Emmett clean up the spilled coleslaw. "Everything for lunch is cooked. So you have some free time if you want."

She bit her lip, uncertain, "Are you sure?"

"Yep." I said. She cleaned up a little, but then left, leaving Emmett and I alone. "So, how's kitchen life?"

He frowned, "Horrible."

"Well, I got you another job, you start in an hour." I said, trying some of the cheese salad Esme had made, "yummmm, this is good." I took out a plate and fork and quickly fixed me a serving. I sat at the table, forgetting Emmett was there.

"That's one thing that amazes me. Your appetite." Emmett said as he sat beside me, "Now, what job do I have now?"

"Guess." I smiled.

"BBQ'in?" He frowned. Obviously he didn't like to cook, just eat. (AU: Like all the men in my family.)

"Nope."

"Get to ride with the kids?" He asked excitedly.

"They wouldn't fit with you on. But it does-well, guess not. Unless you go now." I don't think it would be kids trying out for that.

"WHAT IS IT?" He was getting impatient.

"A…." I leaned in, he gave in to the suspense and came closer. "A RODEO CLOWN!!"

Perfect job for Emmett, huh? Well, I better get going, so I'll update Monday if I'm not busy-I might be next week, but I promise-I will try to finish writing the story! I haven't been able to write anything, so I'll have to do that too. Sorry, babbling, BYE!!
