Saved By A Man In A Cowboy Hat

The Reception

Jason's pov

It's time for the bride and groom dance. I set CJ in the seat I was sitting in since he was on my lap. I set my hat on his head and walk over onto the dance floor as the music starts to play. We picked the song she's my kinda crazy by my badass biker friend BG. His eyes go wide when he heard the song. I laugh at the face he's making and grab her hands. "Yeah she's my kinda crazy, the games she plays lord they never get old. She's too cute to get on my last nerve, the way she throws her little fits, pokin' out her lip, bitin' mine when we kiss. Yeah that's my baby and she's my kinda crazy." Her head rests against my chest, my arms around her. We leave for the tour after we get home from the honeymoon. "Ok it's about to get a little wild in here." I hear Brantley say. I turn around and he's grabbed the mic and is talking to my band. "Uh oh what's he up to?" Miranda whispers, still against my chest, my arms still around her waist. I hear the familiar styling of Bottoms up. I smile at my silly friend. "You're wild B!" I call. He laughs. "Aw son." He starts the song.

Brantley's pov

I break into bottoms up and they dance to that instead. Then I see CJ timidly walk to the stage. "Hey kid, ya wanna get up here too?" I ask, smiling. He smiles too and I help him onstage. "Hey you be careful with my boy now." Jason calls. I laugh and nod.

Jason's pov

"I liked she's my kinda crazy better." I mumble. She turns my head back to facing her and kisses me. "Nothin's gonna happen to CJ right? BG is responsible enough?" I laugh and nod. "Yeah I was just messin' with him. She smiles at the stage watching the two sing the song together. "Hey B play us a slow song will ya?" I call. "You got it man!" He starts playing time marches on. This song is one of my favorites. I played it all the time in the bars and clubs when I was first starting out. She laces her fingers with mine. "This was the song I played when I first started out." She whispers, surprising me. "Wow, me too." "It's a small world." She says, shrugging. CJ gets off the stage and walks over. "I wanna dance with sissy." He says. I smile. "Ok little man."

Miranda's pov

I can tell he's about to say his signature saying, I'm not little man I'm CJ! He starts to but then changes his mind. He walks to me and we dance to leave the night on by Sam Hunt. "I thought you didn't like this singer." He shrugs. "He's grown on me." This little boy is wise beyond his years. I look over and Jason is watching us with a big smile. Brantley starts playing Jason's big green tractor. "I requested this song." He says, stepping back. Jason winks at CJ and walks back to me. "Long as I'm with you it really don't matter." He whisper sings to me.

*a few weeks later*

"Come on little man." He calls. CJ runs downstairs and out to the truck with his small guitar in hand. "Aren't you forgetting something?" I ask. He looks confused then realized. "Oh yeah my hat!" He hands the guitar to Jason and runs back inside, his little cowboy boots making rapid clicks on the pavement. We both laugh and I walk over to Jason. My favorite little cowboy slaps the ground when he runs back to us. Jason picks him up. "Ready dude?" "Oh yeah!" He sets him in his car seat and buckles him up. I give him his guitar and we get in our seats. "Next stop, Tupelo. The world is gonna know your name." He says, holding my hand and kissing me. I can't wait to play for people again! "Oh hey can you get the map out of the glove compartment?" He asks, getting on the highway. I open it and pull out a letter, confused. "Your technically first opry performance." He says, smiling. I blush slightly. Since I already played on the opry stage when we first met. So after our tour we're going to the grand ole opry. I can't believe it! I lace my fingers with his and CJ strums on his guitar then sings Blake's song, Good Country Song. I smile, watching my baby brother. "Can I play with y'all tonight?" Jason smiles and looks at him in the rear view. "It wouldn't be a good show without my mini me." He says. "Yay!" CJ gasps. I am excited to watch him perform with Jason.
