The Farmer's Daughter

Lily's P.O.V

My name is Lily Anderson I am 17 years old , I am Junior in High School I live in Tennessee . My hair is a hazel brown that stops at my mid back , I have piercing  blue eyes like my mama and I am 4"11 I am very short but that's how God made me. I am a Christian as is the rest of my family , I have a brother who is 19 and graduated last year , his name is Travis he is 5"11 like my papa and has blonde short messy hair with hazel eyes like papa. Mama is 5"1 that's where I got my shortness , she has shoulder length brown hair with blue eyes , and Papa has blonde short hair and hazel eyes and is 5"12 and he is the Pastor of our church. And last but not least Grammy she is amazing we lost Grandpa 4 years ago , but it is still hard I miss him so much but Grammy misses him more of course . She is shorter than me and has white hair and her blue eyes still sparkle every time she laughs.

Today was the last day of being a junior and SUMMER was here !! It was my favorite time of the year  , to work with the cows , chickens , ducks , sheep and my favorite the horses. We have 12 horses and my favorite is Lighting he is my horse , he is all black and his main his shinny black and he has a white lighting bolt on his forehead that's why he is called Lighting as you can tell. The bus dropped me of at my long drive way and I made my way up , looking at the scenery before me , the cows mooing , the sheep's baaing , the chickens and ducks quacking and the horses naaing. This is what I love the most about being home from school .I was almost to my house when I see a guy my age or a little bit older tacking hay bails , he looks up at me and tilts his cowboy hat and nods , while I nod back he was good looking that's for sure , I ran up to my front porch and went into the kitchen to see mama , papa , Grammy and Travis sitting around the table.

" Hello sweeite , how was the last day of school." Mama asked giving me a kiss on the cheek

" Good , glad it's summer." I said smiling and getting me a glass of Lemonade.

" Well we hired a young man , to help us with everything." Papa said , that must be the guy I saw outside stacking the hay bails.

" Oh was he stacking the hay bails.?" I asked and papa nodded , I went to my room and changed in to worn out jean shorts and a bad t shirt with my cowboy boots and a base ball cap. I went downstairs and papa stopped me.

" I want to introduce the two of you , before I leave for a Elders meeting." I nodded and we walked out to the farm , we approached the sweaty good looking man , he stopped his work and wiped his forehead and I saw his dark brown short messy hair , and his piercing green eyes darted to me and he quickly looked away and put his hat back on.

" Hello Sir." He said to papa not breaking eye contact with him.

" Landon , I want you to meet my Daughter." he said motioning to me

" Hi I am Lily." I said with a smile and stuck my hand out.

" Good to meet ya , I'm Landon." I nodded and looked into his eyes and I couldn't pull my gaze away.

" Now that you are acquainted  , I want you Lily to show him around the field and barn O.K." Papa said I finally tore my gaze away from Landon and looked up at papa.

" Yes papa." I said he nodded and left to go to the meeting  ,when I turned around I got to see Landon's back turned to me , he is about 6'0 and is very muscular you can tell when his muscles flex when he lifts.

" Would you like me to show you around now." I asled politely my accent strong , I fiddled with my fingers waiting for his answer.

" No thanks maybe later." He said coldly , with his accent showing through as well . What was his problem he is acting irritated that I asked him , IT WAS ONE QUESTION.

" Fine whatever , find me if you need anything or Travis." I said turning on my heel and not waiting for his answer , I go into the barn and go straight to Lighting's stall.

" Hey boy." I say to him and pet his forehead , he nays in return I smile and tack him up for a ride.

" Wouln't this be fun boy , to run free in the fields ." I put my foot in the stir ups and swing onto the saddle and we head out of the barn  , with his hooves making the click clack on the floor. When we get out of the barn Landon turns to look at me and Lighting and I dig my heels into Lighting and he bucks up and we dart into the fields of nothing but open land. . . . . . .
