Jessica's POV

Date: 12/22/15

Location: Clinton's House

Time: 6:34 P.M.

We are sat at the dinner table eating our pizzas. I am facing away from the kitchen, Clinton is to my left, and Linda is facing the kitchen.

"How's yours?" Clinton asks the both of us.

"Very good. Thank you." Linda says.

"Yes, thank you, how's yours?" I say taking another mouth full of cheese and sausage pizza.

"Very good." He says smiling at me.

We continue eating for another ten minutes, then decide to clean up. After cleaning everything, we separate. Linda goes to her room, while Clinton and I hang out in his room watching TV together.

"What show would you like to watch?"  Clinton asks, scrolling threw the menu.

"What do you feel in the mood to watch?" I ask.

"I don't know." He seems to be in quite the predicament.

"Okay, well I'll be right back, I'm going to go throw on some PJ's." I pat his leg and stand up.

"Alrighty."

I walk back to my room and take out my red, plaid pajama pants, and a white T-shirt Clinton had given me. Even though I have more white T-shirts, this one is my favorite.

I walk back to his room and sit back down on the bed to the right next to him. His bed is to the right of the entrance so I have to walk all the way around the side, but he wants to be by the door just in case something happens.

"Have you found anything?" I ask laying down next to him.

"No, not yet." He sighs. He may be able to control and communicate with a thousand pound animal, but when it comes to the everyday life it seems to be a struggle with him, which I find absolutely hilarious.

"I know what." I say excitedly.

"What?" He says taking his attention off of the TV and on to me 

"Let's watch," I pause, "the Clinton Anderson Horseman show! I heard it was good, but I haven't seen it. And it would be lovely to see him work with a horse."

"Funny." He chuckles.

"Just an idea." I smirk.

"Yeah, I mean I've met him, maybe once and he seemed like an awful nice, handsome and smart guy, you know?" He smiles and I laugh.

"Oh yeah, he's definitely nice and handsome, I don't know about smart though." I laugh.

"I'm sure he'd love to hear that." He smirks.

"Have you ever seen the movie, The Man From Snowy River?" I ask. That movie has always been a favorite of mine, and Clinton has always reminded me of the main character, especially since they are both Australian.

"Oh yeah, that's one of my favorites. It has a great plot to it." He still seemed fascinated in the TV.

"Same! Do you have the movie?"

"Yeah, it's on Netflix. Want to watch it?"

"Sure!" I pause, "Want to know something I've always found interesting about the movie?"

"What's that?"

"The main girl character in this movie is named Jessica. I've always loved that about that movie." I smile.

"Oh yeah! I forgot about that!"

"Yeah, I just remembered that!"

"You ready?"

"I was born ready." I smile.

"Of coarse you were."
