It had officially been two weeks of me and Tyler dating and everything was going smooth. I went back to New York for a little bit strictly to quit my job.
I went to my old apartment and got some of my clothes to take back with me. I was sick of New York already but I had two more days here.
~~~
And here I was heading back to Oklahoma not planning on looking back at New York until I needed to move.
I wanted to surprise the wranglers so I drove around until I found the motel they were at.
I pulled in with my brand new Ford bronco that I bought in New York. I pulled next to Tyler's truck where they were working.
They gave me weird looks until I hopped out. "Hailey!!" Boone shouts pointing towards me. Tyler turned around and smiled. "Hails! Baby! Come here!" Tyler shouts running towards me.
We hug tight and have a little moment before I wave at the rest of the crew. "New car?" Tyler asks, I nod.
"Brand spankin new" I add.
"It's nice" he mentions, I agree. After a couple hours me and Tyler decided to go to the local rodeo that was in town. As we watch Tyler waved at a bull rider and did our signal at him.
"You know him?" I ask. "I competed for a little bit, got my head stomped on one to many times, figured college was better for my brain"
I laugh at his comment and we continue watching. The wind picks up and I feel the hair on my neck stand up.
"Tyler we gotta go"
"Calm down a second, let's just see what happens" He replies. "Tyler let's go, I'm not screwing around" I demand.
About that time the sirens started to go off.
"Shit!" He exclaims as he takes off. He lead me through the crowds of people and through traffic to reach the motel.
"Do you guys have a basement? Or a shelter?" Tyler asks the front desk manager. As they deny us I search outside for something. The only thing I lay eyes on is an empty pool.
"The pool Tyler!" I shout. We took a mother and daughter with us along with a man from the motel.
I situated the mother and daughter in the pool holding onto some pipes.
"Get down Hailey!" Tyler shouts. A vending machine is launched from the distance almost hitting Tyler and the man.
I watch as the man is sucked up witch makes me scream. I grabbed Tyler's hand and drug him towards us.
He held on to the pipes above me and held me close to him as the storm progressed.
I'm screaming my head off as I hold on. Tyler has a tight grip around my waist so no debris would hit me.
"Your gonna be ok, I promise" Tyler said faintly in my ear.
As the storm eases I lift up to look at Tyler. "Is everyone ok?" Tyler asks. The mother and daughter thank us and get out of the pool.
After this. I needed a break.
"That was crazy back there good job Tyler!" Some people in the distance say. "Hey don't thank me, it was all Hailey" he adds.
"Tyler I umm, I'm gonna go home for a few days, I need a break" I say. "Like New York home? Or" he asks.
"No, my mamas, I'll cya" I say walking away slowly.
"Hey! I love you" He says with a smile. "I love you too" I reply and hop in my car. As I start driving the only thing in my ear was the soft country music. It reminded me of Tyler.
When I arrived I grabbed the key out of the flower pot like always, and walked in. I poured myself a glass of water and heard my mom stir around.
"It's me mom!" I exclaim. "Hailey? What are you doing? What happened?" She asks. "Nothing mom, I just, need a break" I add.
