Alexia was glad that her father was enjoying Cali, plus she was glad she was having luck with LightningDexter. She rode him everyday and trained him. She made the mistake one day, of rounding cattle with him, because he wasn't a rounding cattle horse. She had watched her sister the whole day, singing and dancing with her horse Jupiter and Lou had called them in for dinner around 5 as Georgie walked in with them. She had been petting Phoenix and brushing his coat to be nice and smooth.
The next few days went by quickly. Alexia had to go to school with Amy and while on the bus, she told Amy that they needed to check on Spartan after school and work with him, jumping. She had nodded, and as school went on for like ever, it seemed like, school was soon over and they went home to discover the horses had all run out of the fenced in area, where they sometimes would roam. "Lexa! Lou! The horses are gone!" "What?!" They had saddled up four horses, Buttercup, Spartan, Jupiter and Rain, Lexi's hose that she let Lou ride. "Do you know who must have done it?" "Me." "Georgie?" She nodded. "Are you coming or what?" Lexa shouted towards them.
They had followed Alexia because she knew where they were and where she was going. Once they had made it there, Amy and Lexi started rounding the horses up and lead them back to Heartland. Once back and the job done, Alexia walked inside turning to Georgie. "Why didn't you tell us before?" she was now soaked, because it had started to rain, hard. "I'm so sorry, Lexi." she replied and Alexia forgave her with a hug, even though she was soaked to the skin.
The next week dragged by and Caleb had come back to work, after the circuit. "I'm glad you decided to come back, Caleb." Grandpa said, meeting him outside. "We've had a hard time, you not being here at work and everything." He replied. "I know, Jack." Replied Caleb. "I will get back to work now." "I hope so."
Alexia saw Caleb was back to his work. "Nice to finally see you back." She said, giggling. "Can you please do me a favor, Lexi?" he asked. "Sure. What?" "Can you help me round the cattle? I had noticed when i came, the cattle was out of the pen. "Really? We should do it right after at about lunch." Lexi replied. So, after lunch, Caleb and Alexia went out on their horses, rounding up the cattle that had somehow got loose. When Alexia thought about it, she could figure who would have done it, but pushed the thought aside. Buttercup was a rounding horse, but somehow he got spooked and Alexia fell off. "Alexia!" Caleb yelled, picking her up. As he took her back to the house at Heartland Ranch, and took her inside, Lou came over looking worried as she helped him put her on the couch. "She was bucked off her horse, must have got scared." he replied. "Thanks Caleb for bringing her here and telling us."
Caleb wanted to tell Alexia that he really liked her and that he'd do anything he could to help her so the next week he told her everything and while that week went on, Lexi knew she felt the same way for him as well. Alexa helped with more wedding plans and the wedding was going to be at Heartland in a few weeks so they had to prep for the wedding for Ty and Amy. They were super excited about it and couldn't wait. After the wedding a few months past, Alexia came to the house and realizing Lightning was sick, she saw Lou as Lou hugged her and felt so bad she couldn't explain it. Amy ran to get into one of their moms journal's to find a cure and she helped Alexia get Lightning to drink it. Mallory came in and told them that she let him graze for a while when he ran off and she went to find him by the side of the road and he was eating the grass they had just sprayed. Once Lightning was better after Scott checked on him, Alexia started riding him again. Awhile had passed and Alexa was riding, and she found a dog stuck in some bushes.
Once back home, Lexi asked, "Where did you go?" "The place where mom's car crashed." "Why?" "I don't know..." "You shouldn't go there, I mean i don't because that's mallen's place and the place gives me nightmares about moms crash." "We don't want to relive the past, even if it was a few months ago."
Caleb came by the house while Alexia had been gone looking for Rima who had gone missing and when she came back and went to her room, she spotted Caleb. "How long have you been here?" "An hour." "How'd you get in?" "The back door was unlocked, or I unlocked it. I've been waiting for you." "So you like broke in?"
Caleb walked over while Alexia was brushing Lightning's coat. "I'm sorry i wasn't here when lightning was ill. I was too busy playing pool to notice or even stop by." "its okay. Don't worry about it." "I don't think its okay, Lexi. I believe I should have been there for you." "No really Caleb it's fine. Don't worry about it. It's over now and behind us." She didn't want to argue with him so she dropped the subject after the last plead from Caleb. Alexa came inside that night frantic. "He's gone! We have to find him! He's my best friend!" she told everyone as they went to go look for Rima. "Where do you think he's gone to?" asked Alexia.
The next day, Alexa went out to the barn to go and talk to her friend. She ran to the barn and grabbed Jupiter and rode him western. Plopped on her black emerald rimmed cowgirl hat and rode off to her friends house. "I just don't know what to do. He's gone and there is nothing I can do. My parents, well, really my Grandpa is telling me to stay in the house or to go for a ride. He's my best friend, Rima is, I have to go look for him!" "Then we will both go. Comeon!"
