Sophia was trailing behind Luke as they were riding the horses, behind the cabins on a Friday afternoon. When they stopped to have lunch Sophia brought up the subject of marriage again, "Luke, I have some ideas about what we could do for the wedding."
When Luke said nothing Sophia continued, "we could have a little wedding with our close friends and family or we could have a big wedding with all our friends and family or-" Sophia stopped talking when she realized that Luke wasn't really paying attention and was just staring off into the distance.
"Sophia, is this a good idea?" Luke said deeply in thought.
"What are you talking about? I thought you wanted to marry me."
"I... I do, it's just you seem like you don't want to marry me."At that Sophia stood up and looked Luke strait in the eyes.
"Why would you think that I don't want to marry you? Your the one that said you don't think it's a good idea, not me, so I think that your the one that doesn't want to get married anymore!"
"I don't know what I think, it's just... I miss it and you don't want me to go back and I know I could get hurt, but Sophia... it's, my life and being married to you would stop me from doing that, but I love so much, it's just I'm worried you don't want me to go back."
"Go back to what?" After a few seconds Sophia realized what Luke was talking about, as she said with sadness in her voice, "bull riding, your talking about bull ridding aren't you?". Without waiting for a response Sophia continued to talk, "I thought you didn't care about it, that you were done, finished, and now your saying you miss it? You could get killed Luke." she said as she kneeled down in front of him.
"I just miss it so much, I don't know why... I thought I only did it for the money for the ranch but after all this time I realized that's not the complete truth, I like bull riding. But Sophia, I swear... I swear that I love you more than anything, it's just I need to go back."Luke said this then gently put his hand on her face to wipe away the tears.
Sophia nodded as if she understood, "if that's what you truly want-" she paused for a few seconds, "what your heart truly wants, then go do it but I just want you to know that your right... if you do this, I don't want to marry you."

Luke finally reached the cabins about an hour after Sophia left him.
"Sophia!" Luke called trying to to find her. "Soph, please can we talk" Luke asked pleadingly. But there was still no answer.
Luke went back outside and saw a man getting onto a cream colored horse. "Excuse me," Luke said to the man "have you seen a girl come out here? She has blonde hair and is about yay high." He said while putting is hand to about his chests hight.
"Um," the man said "about 10 minutes ago i saw a girl with a suitcase running out of there," he continued while pointing to the cabin Luke stayed in, "then she called someone and about 5 minutes ago someone came and picked her up."
"Dam! Well thanks." Luke said while thinking hard. He then ran back inside and within 20 minutes had packed his stuff and cleaned up the cabin. he then ran to his truck and drove back to the ranch.
