I put the saddle blanket on my beautiful black mustang Cherokee, well she wasn't really mine but I've been riding her since I was thirteen and competing with her since I was fifteen. she was my everything. I heard buck Merril was competing I knew he was good from what everyone has said and I heard his partner was even better. I wasn't scared though. I lead Cherokee out of the barn. I squinted my eyes from the bright sun light. I mounted her to get lined up.
Dallas P.O.V
I was getting the horse ready to barrel race Sodapop helped me get ready the whole gang was going to watch me and Buck. I could here a horse moving towards us to exit the barn. I quickly looked up. holy shit I thought to my self about the girl the mounted the black mustang in front of of me. she is smoking.
You ready dal,
Yeah.
Alright good luck soda said to me as he headed to join the rest of the gang in the bleachers.
I could barely hear the the names of the riders but I managed to get hers Courtney I think. she was right before me and she was good, really good, the way she controlled that wild beast, the way she whipped it around as if it were her slave it was so damn hot.
Back to me
I could feel the sweat drip down my face, I leaned in as Cherokee whipped her self around the barrels I didn't even have to control her she knew exactly what to do she wasn't going to let me lose.
It was over before I even knew it. I watched the next person while she rested for a moment.
Dallas Winston the announcer called.
That's his name Dallas. he actually wasn't bad looking.
Dallas p.o.v
As soon as it was over I raced to find her, she was in the barn brushing her wild beast.
You were great.
She turned around you weren't so bad yourself cowboy.
I'm Dallas.
I know Tim complains about you all the time.
Your brother?

How come I've never seen you with them?
I'm not part of their gang, I'm my own. My brother is though.
Who's your brother?
Wren.
And you are?

I doubt it.
Why would you doubt me.
My brother doesn't want me to be around you.
Are you gonna listen?
Not one bit she smiled.
Good.
Tonight meet me here before the fireworks.
She nodded.
Bye.
I walked away to meet the gang since they were standing at the barn entrance.
Hey who's that Sodapop asked?
Oh just some chick that lives by Tim's gang.
Don't you think Tim will be angry flirting with his gang girl.
She's not his gang. she's a rebel child.
How so?
She was told to stay away from me.
And?
We are meeting up tonight.
Well she is smoking two-bit said
Yeah well back off she's mine.
