DISCLAIMER:Blah blah blah I don't own Twilight, the Village People, or Brokeback Mountain.
Alice POV
I couldn't believe Emmett fell for this. Emmett insisted on being a cowboy for Halloween, and I insisted on picking out his costume. I decided to trick him. I let him choose between two outfits, one was a replica of the outfit from the cowboy in The Village People, the other was a character from my favorite movie. Naturally, he had chosen the second one. I wanted to trick Jasper into wearing it, but seeing as I had already forced him to watch it, he refused.
Oh well, this will be funnier.
"Okay Alice, I'm ready!" screamed Emmet.
"Wait!" I cried.
"What?"
"Don't forget your blonde wig!"
"Oh, okay."
"Now remember, you have to say the character's name in order for people to get it."
"Alright, wait, what's his name again, Dennis Elmer?"
I tried not to laugh. "Close, it's Ennis Del Mar."
"Who names their kid Ennis?" he asked. "It makes him sound gay."
It took all of my will power not to crack up laughing.
(A/N For those of you who didn't get it, Ennis Del Mar is one of the main characters in Brokeback Mountain.)

"When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our answers were things like astronaut, president, or in my case… princess.
When we were ten, they asked again and we answered - rock star, cowboy, or in my case, gold medalist. But now that we've grown up, they want a serious answer. Well, how 'bout this: who the hell knows?!
This isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions, its time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere chill. Fall in love - a lot. Major in philosophy 'cause there's no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind. Then change it again, because nothing is permanent.
So make as many mistakes as you can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be… we won't have to guess. We'll know."
