Emmett and the Mechanical Bull

Chapter 1

Emmett's POV

Ok, honestly it seemed like a good idea. Even the annoying pixie said it was a good plan. I just wanted to ride a mechanical bull, how was I supposed to know that guy was going to end up dead?

Alice's POV

I was so excited. There are a million places to shop in Vegas!! I know exactly what we are going to do. First we are going to watch Emmett make a fool of himself on that stupid mechanical bull. Then I will take Bella, and Rose shopping!!!! This trip is going to be great, I'm so glad Esme and Jacob could watch Nessie while we are away!!

Bella's POV

We dropped Nessie off at the main house around 11:00 PM Friday night and dashed into the garage. Edward, my husband, and I got into the two front seats of his shiny silver Volvo, while Alice and Jasper, my sister and brother in-law got in the back. Rosalie and Emmett, my other sister and brother in-law got into Emmett's monstrous jeep.

As we sped down the highway, I heard Alice rambling on about the millions of shops she was going to drag me into. I immediately wished that vampires needed sleep and sighed just loud enough for my love to hear.

Chuckling quietly he said, "I'm so sorry love," and gave me a sympathetic grin.

The rest of the ride was silent. We finally pulled into the parking garage and stiffly climbed out of the car. We gathered around behind our cars to make our final plans. Alice jumped up and down excitedly and Edward gave out a little chuckle.

"What?" I asked getting kind of annoyed.

Everyone else looked confused as Edward continued to chuckle, and Alice continued to bounce.

"Ok, I'm about to get angry, and Edward, your Volvo won't like it when I'm angry," I growled through my tightly clenched teeth.

That sobered him up real fast and it even made Alice stop bouncing.

"WHAT??" we all screamed in frustration.

Alice popped open the Volvo's trunk and reached in pulling out six giant shopping bags and handing one to each of us. Still confused, we followed Alice straight back to the restrooms inside a bar. We each took turns changing, one at a time so Alice could make sure we didn't peek.

Rosalie was first and emerged from the bathroom wearing a cow-print skirt that barely reached her mid-thigh, a white shirt tied up exposing her flat stomach, a cow-print mini vest with short fringes along the bottom and 'Rose' written in pink sparkles on the back. She had on black high-heeled cowgirl boots and perched on her head was a bubblegum pink cowgirl hat with 'Love thyself' written across the brim. Emmett stared at her looking like a deer in headlights. While Edward cringed obviously not liking what was running through Emmett's mind. Alice decided to send him in next before Edward killed him.

I held in my laughter as he moseyed his way out of the bathroom with his thumbs in his belt loops. He was wearing a long-sleeved white shirt with marble-like buttons down the front, a black leather vest over his shirt, blue jeans, and sandy brown cowboy boots with shiny silver spurs attached to the heels. On his head was a rusty-brown cowboy hat with 'Little Bear' written on the brim.

He was grinning ear to ear and with a tip of his hat said, "Howdy folks, Emmett's the name, mechanical bull ridin's the game." With that I burst into hysterical laughter, unwillingly bringing attention to myself.

Alice all but pushed me into the bathroom. I quickly went into the biggest stall and locked it. I wondered how long I could stay in here before Alice comes in to dress me herself.

No sooner has that thought crossed my mind I heard, "Bella you have exactly five minutes before I come in there and dress you myself!!"

I gave a low growl and muttered, "Annoying pixie", and heard Emmett's booming laugh, a loud SMACK, and Emmett mutter, "Sorry Alice." I had to laugh at that, but my laughter quickly subsided as I began to unpack my outfit.

Alice gave me a knee length jean skirt, a dark blue flannel shirt, light pink cowgirl boots, and a matching bubblegum pink cowgirl hat with 'Stupid Lamb' written on the brim. I mean honestly we aren't really even at a rodeo; we are just here so Emmett can ride that stupid piece of machinery. I checked myself in the mirror before stepping out. I could have sworn I saw a glitter of pride in Alice's eyes, but all I cared about was Edward. He was grinning my favorite crooked grin and as I approached he said, "You look absolutely beautiful Bella," I smiled and snuggled into his side.

I didn't even notice Jasper was gone until he appeared again dressed in a pair of dark blue jeans, a red and white "lumberjack" shirt, light brown cowboy boots, and a matching rusty-brown cowboy hat with 'Army Strong' written on the brim.

I reluctantly let go of Edward, seeing he was next. After about five minutes he returned again. Alice had him dressed in blue jeans, a dark blue long-sleeved button down shirt, light brown cowboy boots, and a rusty-brown cowboy hat that matched Emmett and Jasper's, only his has 'Masochistic Lion' written on the brim.

Alice was the only one left to change. She disappeared then reappeared again in about three minutes. She wore a black and pink "lumberjack" shirt, a jean skirt with pink cow-spots down the side, the skirt ending about one inch above her knees. She had black cowgirl boots with pink cow-spots down the side, and a bubblegum pink hat that matched mine and Rosalie's but hers had 'Shopaholic' written on the brim. Once we were all dressed, again, we sent the boys to put our "old" clothes back in the car. Once they returned our real fun began.
