Cowboy Bring Me Back

14

When they got back to the Equestrian Center, Lindsey was standing in front of a man and a woman and Stevie recognized the third man in the little huddle as Tucker. She hadn't seen him a while and he was older now but he still looked like Tucker. Colton helped Livinia out of the truck and then they walked towards the small huddle. The woman in the huddle started hitting her husband as Stevie approached them. Tucker gave the woman a look before he cast his gaze over Lindsey's shoulder and Stevie just held her finger up to her lips.

Stevie placed her hands on Lindsey's hips and he jolted and about jumped a mile in the air.

"Jesus Christ. Don't do that, you're going to give me a heart attack." He states pulling her into his side. 

"When did you get back in town?" Tucker asks as Stevie goes to hug him.

"About a month ago." Stevie states.

"That's why you've been happier." Tucker nudges Lindsey's arm 

"Our children are right there." Lindsey points.

"Yeah, you've been doing what you had to do to get your children," Tucker smirks as Lindsey blushes.

"Why does that make sense...Hi Mr. and Mrs. Cartwright." Livinia tucks herself under Lindsey's other arm.

"He's doing your mom. Which is exactly what he had to do to get you." Tucker repeats.

"I know, that's why it strangely makes sense," Livinia replies.

"Alright enough about us...If you haven't gathered this is my wife. Yes, Nancy, she is Stevie Nicks. Nancy and Wayne are the parents of the girl that was thrown." Lindsey explains.

"Is she going to be okay? Training won't be fun if she's not...Not that I can train right now anyway, but you know what I mean." Lavinia states.

"Brooke was up and conscious when the paramedics got here, the fall just stunned her, she'll be okay, much better off than you were." Nancy points.

"So she's not broken." 

"As of right now, no, they're going to take a look at her wrist though. Just some cuts and bruises and a little bump on the head. She was riding Blaze because of the competition last week she was giving Lightening some time to rest. We weren't here when she was thrown so that's why there was such a big commotion." Nancy explains.

"As long as she's okay." 

"Yeah, she is....but could I..." Nancy starts.

"Picture or an Autograph?" Stevie asks.

"Both?" She asks.

"Sure...it's the least I can do, I mean your daughter was hurt on our property." Stevie nods.

"How's Blaze?" Livinia questions.

"He's...not, doing well. I was waiting for you to give the go ahead. He's right in there." Lindsey points to a separate barn. 

"Colt, are you coming?" She asks.

"No, I'm going to stay with Mom and Dad." He nods.

"Our kids, take it hard when we lose a horse." Lindsey sighs kissing Livinia's head as she pulls away. "Hey, she's walking." 

"Yeah, we have to bring her back on the 31st. But she has to wear that all day she can take it off when she goes to bed and when she showers. He wants her to walk on it, but she still has the crutches in case it feels a little sore." Stevie explain. 

"When can she ride again?" Nancy asks.

"He said maybe the middle of August. If her appointment goes well in two weeks." Stevie sighs.
