Riley's POV

-FLASHBACK-

The doctor placed Hunter in my arms. I had tears streaming down my face in happiness and relief. He was so beautiful, and he looked a lot like his father.

"What is his name?" My dad asked me.

I looked up at him and my mom. "Hunter." I whispered. I decided to name my baby after my dead brother. He flew off a bull at a rodeo, the bull landed its hooves on his neck and head. It gave him severe injuries he could not recover from. He died a week after the incident.

My parents teared up at the name. I kissed Hunter's head and whispered to him, "You will always be safe, my baby."

-END FLASHBACK-

All the boys watched me as I told them the story of Hunter's birth.

"Momma, don't cry." Hunter tugged on my shirt to get my attention. I smiled at him as a tear fell down my face.

"Big buck." Hunter told me as he pointed toward the sky.

"Yes, baby. Big buck in the sky." I told him.

"I think I'm the only one that understands." Taylor spoke up. The other boys looked at him confused. "Big buck in the sky is her brother. Little buck is Hunter." He explained.

"Indiana boys." Nash shook his head with a chuckle.

We all laughed a little. "Has Hunter always known it was me?" Jack asked me.

I shook my head. "Nope. I told him his daddy wasn't here."

"I'm sorry I didn't know. But, I love him. I really do."

I nodded my head as I helped Hunter down from the bed. He walked over to Jack and hugged his legs. Jack picked him up and kissed his cheek.

"How about a swim?" Matt suggested.

We all agreed and began to get ready. I put on my Camo bikini and put Hunter in his blue swim trunks. Before we went down, I covered Hunter in sunscreen and got us both towels.

All of us met down by the pool and got in. Jack and I hung out by the 3ft. area. I let Jack hold on to Hunter.

Hunter kicked his feet in the water and Jack occasionally tossed him up in the air.

After an hour, I decided to tan. "Baby, want to tan with mommy?" I asked Hunter. He nodded and layed in the chair next to me.

A few minutes later, we turned over on hour stomachs to even out the tan. Aaron came over to me, picked me up and threw me in the water.

I screamed as I hit the water. Once I came back up to the surface, I pulled my hair from my face. "Aaron!" I yelled at him.

The guys grabbed him and threw him in with a splash. We laughed and I got out of the pool.

After another hour, we decided to go back inside and have dinner. Once I was dressed, we met in Taylor's room.

I played country music as we ate take out food. We told funny stories and Hunter talked about his crazy little dreams.

"Big buck." Hunter said all of a sudden.

"What, little buck?" I asked him, confused.

"Big buck." Hunter repeated and pointed toward the door. We had the door open and there stood my older brother, Hunter.
