Coming home

Chapter 7

We get to the ranch and it looks the same well kinda. The pasture looks kept up with and the fences looks new.

"You've actually have been working since I've been gone wow?" I ask looking shocked at the fact Jackson has been working. The truck came to a stop and I got out and inhaled the fresh country air. Another thing I missed.

"Well if it isn't the wicked witch of the west and Dorothy." I turn and see my uncle looking no different just cleaned he was wearing a light blue plaid button down and clean blue jeans with his nice cowboy boots.

"Oh uncle frank I missed you so much." I said running up to him and hugging him so tight." Don't forget todo, uncle this is Mucho, Mucho this is my Uncle Frank." He picked up the puppy and smiled. The resemblance of chief made him happy.

"Speaking of puppy why don't you go to the stables and say hi to some old friends?" My uncle said taking the puppy and my suitcase inside.

I ran halfway up to the stables when Chief sees me and starts running to meet me halfway.

"Hey there Chief, how you been boy? Oh did you miss me? I sure missed you." I was interrupted by the sound of a tractor starting up. I look up and see a dirty blonde haired blue eyed Bo with his shirt off and a 6 pack with muscles everywhere and sweat dripping down his chest from the sun. Gosh I don't remember him being that um well Hot. I wave but he doesn't see me. So I keep walking to the barn.

There in her shiny clean stall is a beautiful glossy black and white Lucky. I go towards the tack room and get her bridle, saddle, blanket , and personal reins. I tack her up and walk out. Then I climb up on the left side and swing my right leg over and grab the reins. We start walking out just to get used to each other again. Then I trot her up the hill and when we reach the top there two ways I could go. 1. Towards the pond or 2. On the trail. I decide the trail and then the pond later we get up to a canter just riding with my hair in the wind and the breeze on my face makes me so happy. We go through the little stream where I broke her and a memory pops in my head.

I was about 8 1/2 when my uncle finally thought I should start riding my own horse so he took me down the trail to this little steam. We were out there since noon when we finally got her broke my uncle went to go get the saddle when Bo came and helped me up he was 9 then and he had already broke Blaze.

"I don't think I can do this" I told Bo.

"Yah you can come on you trust me right?"

"Yah of course"

"Okay then just get on and I'll lead her away then you just need to steer." We did exactly that and the sun started to go down when we made our way up to my barn.

"Told ya you could do it" Bo said tying up Blaze.

"Your point?"

"You said you couldn't do it and I said you could i was right and you were wrong."

"You were not right" I said hopping of my horse and untacking her.

"Yes I was" he said stepping towards me.

"No your weren't." I said stepping towards him to intimidate him. It wasn't working.

"Yes I was." He said back. We were only a few inches away each answer getting closer to each other.

'BAM' I was pulled back to reality when I heard the sound of a truck. I turned Lucky around and headed back to house.
