Adan swats at a bug that lands on his forehead as he tries to sleep. He rolls over on his side to get comfortable. A few seconds later, he smacks his arm as he again feels something land on his arm.
That is one of the cons of sleeping in a barn. BUgs, mosquitoes, crickets, spiders. Wait. SPIDERS?!
Adan sits up quickly to see if it was, in fact, a spider crawling on him. He frantically looks around for the unwanted visitor.
"What the hell?" He whispers, as he sees his body covered with pieces of hay.
Now you would think that sleeping in a barn full of hay, that would be expected. But his blanket fully covered the hay that he was sleeping on.
He slowly looks up as he see's a few pieces of hay floating down like snowflakes from the cracks of the loft above him.
That was when he tuned in on hte sounds. Heavy breathing, soft moans and groans, and whispering.
He rolls his eyes when he realized the sounds were coming from the lovers in the loft. Their movements were causing the hay to fall on him. It was partly his fault for picking the stable under the lovenest to sleep.
Adan huffs as he grabs his blanket and shakes the hay off of it before going to search for another area to sleep.
"How can they sleep through that?" Adan asks himself, as he see's Abigor and Kharlos sleeping soundly. "I guess they can't hear it because of Jace's snoring." He chuckles softly.
He spreads out his blanket and lays down.
"OH MY GOD!" The black haired male suddenly screams out, as his lover thrusts into him.
Adan watches in amusement as Abigor, Kharlos and Jace spring from their pallets, grab their guns and run to whatever door or window that was the closest.
"What the hell was that?Q" Abigor whispers, as he peeks out into the darkness.
"Oh shit...I can't breathe!" Adan says through uncontrollable laughter. He had never seen his comrades move so fast before.
"What's so funny?" Kharlos asks, as he glances around at the man, now holding his side from laughing so hard.
"You guys are." Adan says, as he tries to catch his breathe. "That's only Ski and Rebel going at it like rabbits in the loft."
"Seriously?" Abigor asks from his position by the barn door.
"Yep." Adan answers, as he rolls over to go back to sleep.

The morning sun began to make its self known, as it's rays crept into the windows and the cracks in the walls.
The gang begins to get ready to go get breakfast. Nothing had been heard from the lovers this morning.
"Guess I'll go wake the love birds." Kharlos says, as he walks towards the ladder.
"I'd be careful if I were you." Abigor says with a smirk on his face, as he slips on his boots.
Kharlos had no idea what he meant by that. So, the statement was shrugged off. He climbes to the top of the ladder. Skiler was laying on his side with his back to Kharlos, his arm was across his lover's stomach. Both were sound asleep and both were very naked.
'Maybe that's what Abigor meant'. Kharlos says to himself, as he reaches out for the outlaw's shoulder.
"Ski." Kharlos says, as he shakes Skiler's shoulder.
IN the blink of an eyes, Kharlos finds himself looking down the barrel of Lucille.
"OH SHIT!" Kharlos shouts, as he leans back.
Lessons learned today: 1. It's not too smart slipping up on a wanted outlaw when he's sleeping. 2. Leaning back on a ladder that is not anchored down isn't the smartest thing to do either.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kharlos screams, as he and the ladder fall backwards.
The three gang members on the lower level turn around just in time to see the brunette land safely in a haystack. Still holding on to the ladder. His eyes were wide with fear.
Abigor laughs as he walks up and looks down at Kharlos.
"I tried to warn you." Abigor laughs.
"What the fuck..." Kharlos breathes, still clutching the old wooden ladder.
"I thought everyone knew that it's not smart to startle Ski like that." Abigor shakes his head, as he looks at adan and JAce.
"Uh, excuse me?" Ski says, as he and Rebel peek over the edge of the loft.
Everyone turns their attention to the lovers looking down at them from the loft.
"Can we have our ladder back?" Rebel asks with a smile.
"Sure. That is if we can get Kharlos' hands pried off it." Adan laughs.
"Sorry 'bout that, Kharlos." Ski says with a soft chuckle.
The barn door suddenly swings open and Sam comes running in with his shotgun.
"Is everyone okay? I thought I heard one of you scream?" Sam says.
"That would be me." Kharlos answers, as he sits up and knocks the hay from his clothes and his hair. "I, uh, fell from the loft."
Sam glances up at the loft to see Skiler and Rebel looking down at them. Both looked to be shirtless. He slowly turns his head to look at Kharlos and raises a brow. Was there a threesome going on here?
"No. No, it's not what you're thinking." Kharlos says quickly, shaking his head. "I went up to wake them up. I fell and brought the ladder down with me."
"Oh. OKay?" The old cowboy says with a nod. "Well, breakfast is almost ready. We have alot of work to do. I'd kinda like to get started on the chicken house today."
"Sounds good." Abigor answers with a nod.
"I need coffee." Adan yawns.
"Me too." Jace says, as they head for the door.
They follow Sam outside closing the barn door behind them.
"UH, hello?" Ski calls, as he listens to their voices fade away.
"What the hell?" Rebel giggles. "They forgot us."
"Well, ain't this the shits."Ski chuckles, as he looks down at their much-needed ladder.
"Should we try jumping?" Rebel asks.
"Hell no. I'm not going to jump. My luck I would land on a damn pitchfork." Ski says, as they begin to get dressed. "They'll be back."

~~~~~~~~ Thirty Minutes Later~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I think it would be best just to tear the whole chicken house down and build a new one." Sam says as he sips his coffee. "Instead of trying to repair the old one."
"That's gonna take a few days. What would you do with the chickens in the meantime?" Adan asks.
"I have some cages that I can put them in at night to keep anything from getting them." Sam says. "Not only do we need a new house but also the fence around it."
Lilly couldn't help but smile as she listens to the conversation. Her husband was trying to think of anything possible to keep the boys around longer. Yeah, they needed a safer chicken house for thier chickens but the old one could easily be repaired. And be finished a lot quicker.
She smiles as she looks around the table. Wait. Aren't there supposed to be six of them?
"Guys? Where are Skiler and Rebel? Is one not feeling well?" Lilly asks in a worried tone.
Everyone stops eating as they glance around at each other.
"OH SHIT!" Abigor yells, as he jumps up from the table causing Lilly's eyes to widen in shock.
The gang quickly runs out of the house leaving a laughing old man sipping his coffee.
"What in the world is going on?" Lilly asks as he hears the front door slam.
"It's a long story, sweetheart." Sam laughs and shakes his head. "God, I lover these boys."
