Felt like a little Texas one shot today, hope you all like it. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👨‍👩‍👧‍👦👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Maya's POV

We had been living in Texas for 6 months now looking after papy Joe and I knew that he was  pushing Lucas into doing the bull contests but as long as I was around he wouldn't be stepping foot into that ring.

"C'mon Lucas your my only grandson!" Papy Joe begged.

"No.!" I stated firmly. "He's not doing it he's done it once for you and that's it."

"Maya it might be fun." Lucas explained. "It's not like I'll be riding tombstone again."

"Look at them beautiful kids out there." I guilt tripped them. "Do you want me to have to tell them their daddy died on a bull because he thought it was fun." They said nothing all they did was stare at me.

"It's settled then." I said walking towards the living room door. "He's not doing it." I shouted Slamming the door behind me.

Lucas' POV

I didn't really want to do it but they were only small Bulls this time, they probably wouldn't even hurt besides if I didn't do it I would never live it down from my papy Joe.

"C'mon, just do it." Papy Joe whispered. "Just don't tell the ball and chain."

I gave him a sturn look but then nodded. "This is the last time, ok." I made sure he knew it.

"Yes!" He yelled before silencing himself so Maya couldn't hear us.

Maya's POV

Riley had come down to visit because I hadn't seen her in so long and now we were so far apart we hardly ever talked.

"Just go to a bull fight." Riley tried to convince me. "It's probably not always as bad as the day we saw it."

"I've been living out here for six months and there are a lot of scary things but my husband being thrown off a bull trumps them all." I said trying not to cry. "I swear that as long as I'm around and he still loves me he'll never do it again."

"Why don't we just go to an event?" She asked. "If you don't like it we can leave. Ok?"

"Ok." I agreed but something still didn't sit right with me.

Lucas POV

Today was the competition and inside I was aching. There were all different things complicating my head like me not telling Maya about it.and the fact that at any moment in that ring I could be thrown from my bull. I was dreading it.

I was getting ready in the tent when I turned around to see a very angry Maya...

Maya's POV

"See look, it's not that bad." Riley squirmed trying to lighten the fact that there was a man lying in the ring subconscious. "At least he can't feel the pain."

"Yeah because the pain was that bad he passed out." I teased. "I guess it's not that bad when it's not the person you love doing it." That's when I heard the commentator say it.

'And riding Devils Advocate is LUCAS FRIAR!"'

Something flared up inside me I wanted to save him and murder that man all at once.

"I can't believe him." My eyes inflamed with anger as I stood up to walk over to the tent and kill him.

"Maya!" Riley shouted following me over to the tent. "Maybe there's another Lucas friar."

"We'll find out shall we!" I yelled opening the tent flap and walking into to find Lucas standing there talking to papy Joe. All the memories of him falling of that bull came flooding back and I wanted to kill him for it.

He turned around and his facial expression changed to pure fear, it looked worse than what it would of if he was on that bull.

"What the hell do you think your doing?" I shouted. "You both agreed you wouldn't do it."

"Look it won't be that bad." He tried to sugar coat it but I couldn't take this all again.

"If you want to do this then do it but I mean it this time, as soon as you get on that bull I'm leaving and when you get home I don't know if I'll be there. I don't want to make you choose between me and this but I can't watch someone I love do this to themselves." I explained. "Goodbye Lucas." I turned and walked away taking Riley with me.

Lucas' POV

I watched as she walked away and I wanted to go after her but by then I was being pushed in a different direction.

"Lucas your on!" Everyone was shouting. I got outside and I saw Maya watching from the gate only yards away she looked so desperate for me to just leave but I got on the bull. I looked over at her and I swear tear drop from her eye and then without even taking another look she turned around and left me there straddling the bull that was clinking against the tightly fit cage.

Maya's POV

I waited and prayed for him to come running after me but when he got in top of that stupid bull I knew he wasn't going anywhereand I wasn't going to sit around and wait this time so I wiped away the tears that were falling from my sore eyes and walked away knowing what I was going to do next.

"Maya?!" I heard being called from behind me. I turned around to see Lucas running down the field after me. I was so excited that he hadn't done it but I was determined to be mad at him.

"What do you want Lucas?" I asked crossing my arms.

"I need to tell you something." he shouted still trying to catch up with me.

"What?" I snapped. "What is it?"

"If I had to choose between you or anything else. It would always be you." He said taking my hand and gently pulling me me closer before placing his lips on mine and making my heart melt to a puddle of nerves on the floor.
