The Cowboy From Nowhere!

Chapter 3

COLBY'S POV

God I wanted to kiss her. So damn bad. She was gorgeous and I couldn't help but check her out every chance I got. I know I probably looked like a perv, but I couldn't help myself. Everything about the girl was adorable. Even the way she ate cereal had me grinning like a mad person.

I had officially become a bloody girl. I couldn't stop dreaming about her skin against mine and how it would feel to kiss her rosy lips until she was panting in my arms. It had been only three days since my mother had brought her home to the ranch and in those three days I had barley kept my eyes off her.

She was reluctant to accept the job my father offered her but after a few hours of thinking about it she agreed and to say I was happy was an understatement. I had made it my job to look out for her through out the work day. When I was supposed to be mending fences around the property, I was to busy watching her beautiful blonde hair blow in the wind as she picked vegetables from the patch. I was entranced by her, if she asked me to drive three hundred miles to get her ice-cream, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to not do it.

"Dude what is up with you?" Pete Shaw, one of our ranch hands asked me at lunch. "You're all over the bloody place.

"Sorry, just my heads not in the right place at the moment" I say and pull my gaze away from Abella who is currently playing with Rex, Carson's German Shepard. I pull at the t-shirt I am wearing. Its one of my brothers shirts its far to small for me. I hadn't wanted to tell Abella that she was mixing up the laundry when she had only been here three days. So I wore a t-shirt three times too small for me in order not embarrass her by pointing out that she was doing something wrong. God I was hopeless.

"Ah so its the new girl!" Pete exclaims rubbing his hands together.

"Don't know what you're talking about!" I say and take a bite of my salad sandwich.

"Dude you totally want to bang her" Pete says a little too loudly. I look over and see Abella her face red. I know immediately that she heard Pete.

"Pete!" I say teeth clenched. Abella turns away from us and her attention goes back to Rex.

"What its true!" he says not getting why I'm pissed.

"It may be true but I'm not going to act on it" I say and Pete gives me a look that says he believes otherwise.

"Well If you ain't going to maybe I will" he says and stands up. I grab his arm and pull him roughly back into his chair. "Hey!"

"Touch her and you die! Got it?" I ask not playing around.

"Gee dude, what's your problem" He says rubbing his arm as if i injured him.

"I said 'get it?'" I say venom coating my words.

"Yeah bro i got it." he gets up from his seats and walks away from me towards the barn. Muttering something about how fucking crazy I am. I begin to think he is right, this girl is doing something to me.

ABELLA's POV

He wants to have sex with me! I seriously don't know what to do with that knowledge. Yeah I was attracted to him but I didn't know how the hell I was ever going to move from attraction to actually sleeping with the guy.

I hadn't had sex that I had agreed to since I was nineteen. Five years is a long time to go with out an orgasm. Sure I had seen the way Colby looked at me and I knew on some level he might find me attractive but after years of being told that no one would ever want me, I found it hard to comprehend his attraction.
