I picked this story because of all of the reviews in which at this moment has 12,985. I'm so glad I did. It's really really good and while somewhat predictable, makes me very happy :) not to mention, hilarious. I literally LOL'd a few times while sitting here at work. Hehe.

Edward, Emmett and Jasper are all best friends who also bartend together at the same night club. They are tired of dating the wrong girls and decide to make a bet. None of them can hook up with a "Barfly" or they lose $200. So, they are on a quest to meet nice girls. Emmett is hilarious in this! He picks some places to meet nice girls, like the grocery store, library, etc. Each turns out to be a flop...for him. Edward on the other hand, can't stop thinking about the "naughty librarian."

Bella, Alice and Rosalie are all best friends and room mates. They too, are sick of dating losers and decide to have a boycott until the new year. They each put $200 in the pot and whomever obeys the rules until the last day, wins the money.

Well, Bella runs into the guys first, while they were scoping for women at the library, but pretty much blows them off because of the boycott. Then, she runs into them again at the gym. Rosalie runs into Emmett at a football game (which is a pretty funny scene) and then Alice sees a very hot bartender at the club, Jasper. Jasper can't get over Alice, but being that he saw her in a bar, she's off limits.

But what happens when Bella figures out that she knows both of the guys that Alice and Rosalie have been talking about? Edward and the guys seem to show up everywhere, and Bella finds herself questioning the bet. What happens when Edward finds loop holes in the rules to their boycott? Will they be able to break the other couples so that Bella can win?

A little piece of the story.

“Hey, Playboy, long time no see.” I laughed as the big guy from the library came and stood next to me. Playboy was the nickname Alice, Rose and I had given him after I told them the story from the library, when we had finally stopped laughing that is.

The look of confusion on his face was priceless. He was racking his brain trying to place where he knew me from...a one night stand, school, the supermarket, his apartment building...I could see him ticking things off at a rapid rate with no success.

In his defense, I had my hair up in a tight bun and I was standing on a stool most of the time when we first met rather than the ponytail and much tighter gym clothes I was currently dressed in. He looked over at the guy with the green eyes, for help, but he was still looking curiously at me, which made me blush again.
Needing a distraction, I glanced up at the tall blond who suddenly started smiling widely, he had remembered me at least.

“Do I...did we...have we met before?” The big guy finally stammered after a few hand gestures.

“Yep.” I said, dragging out his torture a bit longer.

“Where did we meet?” He asked completely puzzled.

“We met during your first time...” I said, trying not to break out into a fit of laughter when I realized how that could be taken. I meant at the library, but that gave away too much information so I cut the part off. The tall blond was leaning against the wall laughing now. I saw the guy with green eyes glance at him and then glance back at me, try to figure out the joke he was missing out on. I gave him a quick wink and a smile and that's when it clicked.


EDIT: Sadly, this story has been removed from vjgm's profile. I almost cried at the news. But she has published it and it is set to come out in February. You can find it here.
