Texas Was You

Party And A Barn Mishap

Jason's pov

We throw a celebration party for the engagement. Me and Luke were hanging out when someone cleared their throat behind me. I turned around and my throat got dry. Cole. "H-Hey man." I say, waving. He holds a hand out and I stare at it surprised. "What's uh.... What's going on?" I ask. He laughs. I shake his hand confused out of my mind and he walks off. "What was that?" Luke asks. "I don't..... Know.... That guy hated me before." Someone whistles. I glance that way. "I'm not afraid of getting down and dirty." I hear my fiancé say. Uh oh. I walk that way. She had MY keys swinging around her finger! Huh? How'd she get my keys?! I feel in my pocket but obviously they're gone. "How'd you get my keys?" I gasp. She smiles. "I'm good like that." She tosses them to me. I put them back in my pocket and was starting to walk back to Luke when I felt a tug on my jeans. I freeze unsure of what she's doing then my feet give out from under me and I know she's roped me again. "Dammit, Dallas, you untie me this instant!" "Or what?" She says, stealing my cowboy hat. I try to reach to where the rope is but she ropes my hands. She sets the cowboy hat on her head, pulling the brim down just enough for our eyes to meet, a soft smile drifting to her cute little Texan face. "Dammit." Thank God the party had died down to just a few people. I sigh. "Hey Jason," Luke says. I struggle to turn my head while she sits on my back, her hand holding my head down. "What Luke?" He laughs standing over me. "Don't say it." "Permission to speak freely my lady?" He asks her. "Permission granted sir." "I know who wears the pants in this relationship." I knew he was gonna say that. She crosses her legs. "Get offa me!" She stands up and unties my legs but my hands are still tied behind my back. "I am going to get you later." "I know. I can't wait."

*later*

Miranda's pov

I was brushing Chase in the barn whistling to Winn Dixie. I feel a light breeze and hear the door door creak open. I smile feeling, hands wrap around my waist. I drop the brush and lean into his chest.

Jason's pov

I was watching TV when I heard her scream in the barn! I tear the door open and race to the barn. "I'm coming baby!" I gasp. I throw the barn door open. Some guy had her pressed against the wall. "Get off her!" I yell. "I told you I'd find you." He growls in her face completely ignoring me. Who is this guy?!

Miranda's pov

How the hell did he find me?! I slowly ease my hand to the rope at my waist. Then before he even knew what hit him I had him hogtied and staring in shock. "What the fuck just happened?!" He yelled. I was trying to catch my breath, my hands shaking. Jason ran over and hugged me. "You're alright now. Who was that guy?" "Chad, one of my annoyingly perverted ex boyfriends." He kicks him in the side making an oof sound come out of him. "I'm glad you're okay." He says, holding me. I nod and lay my head on his chest, trying not to cry but just thinking about that guy makes my skin crawl. Jason calls the cops.

Jason's pov

My goodness I've never seen her like this. All freaked out and scared. "Miranda, are you okay?" Oh wow that was weird. I never call her by her name. She stares at me wide eyed too obviously surprised. I smile. "Dallas." She smiles too. "I'm fine.... J-Just that perv always freaked me out." I guide her inside when the cops show up and take him away. They were confused by the rope. I smile and rub my neck. "Uh yeah my Dallas ropes folks to get her point across." I say untying it. Suddenly he lunges up and grabs my arm, pulling me down and thrusting a knife against my throat. "Freeze!" The cop yells pointing his gun. "Back off!" He yells. Oh shit.

Miranda's pov

Man, tonight has me on edge. I'm surprised the cops are still here. Probably wanna ask me questions or something so I walk back outside and my jaw drops the mug falling from my hands and shattering. "Jason!" I gasp in a whisper, my hands shaking. I grab his bow and arrow.

Jason's pov

I try to hold his hand back. "What do you want?" "I want my girl back!" "She's not your- Hey!! Ahh!" He dug the knife deeper into my throat, his eyes glazed over with rage. I can't even talk of fear of my throat getting slit. "Let go of him. Let's talk it out like reasonable adults." The cop says, his voice shaking. He grabs my shirt pulling me to my feet, the knife still deeply against my throat. "Time for talking is done. I want my girl in my hands by tomorrow morning or the cowboy gets it." I glance back at the house and see her with my bow and arrow and a rage filled look in her eyes. She puts a finger to her lips. I stare back at her fearfully. "Chad, how about this ya have five seconds to let Jason go before this arrow goes through your fucking skull! And boy you know I don't miss!" She yells. His hands stiffen. "This bitch has a lot to learn." That pisses me off. "Call her a bitch one more time and see what the fuck happens." I growl fisting my hands. "Ma'am put down the weapon, let the men handle this." The cop say. Oh Lord. "What did you just say?!" Crap. His grip tightens around my arm and he smiles. "You think just because I'm a damn girl doesn't mean I can't beat the living shit outta all three of y'all if I wanted to!?" "Officer you might wanna take it back." I say. He rolls his eyes and she fires the arrow, hitting Chad in the face then not two seconds later she's got the officer tied up, facedown in the dirt. He looks shocked. "Yeah uh she's not to be fucked with, my friend." "I'm sorry ma'am, now could you please untie me?" She nods and pulls the rope. He fixes his hat and takes the body. "Once again Dallas, you've shocked me beyond comprehension! You tied up a fucking cop! Are you crazy or what?" She nods and picks my hat up off the ground. "Jason, I may be tough and I know how to handle myself but.... I don't mind my cowboy coming to the rescue." I smile. "I'll always come to you're rescue, girl. No one is allowed to save you other than me." She smiles and hugs me, laying her head on my chest. "And there's no damsel in distress better than me." I roll my eyes. "Oh Dallas, what am I gonna do with you?"
