Hearing and babysitting

Miranda's pov

They just got him out of surgery. I nervously walk back there. "What if he doesn't like the sound of my voice." Dad laughs softly. "He will, honey." I open his door. "Hunter?" I whisper walking over. He smiles. "Wow." He whispers. I smile big. "You can hear?" He nods. "I.... I love you so much Miranda." He says hugging me. I fight back the tears. Even fi they are happy. "I'm glad I can say it instead of sign it." I laugh softly and we hug again.

Willie's pov

I get home from hunting and Miranda and Hunter are flirting on the front porch. Man he makes my little girl so happy. I love seeing it. "Perfect love." I whisper, walking into the kitchen. "Surprise!" Korie gasps jumping out from behind the pantry door! My heart is pounding out of my chest. "H-Hey." I gasp trying to slow my breathing. "Happy birthday honey." She says kissing me. I smile. "Thanks Korie. I love you."

*the next day*

Me and Korie get home from celebrating my birthday and Jason was dropping Sam off. "It's only for a few hours." He says. Miranda laughs. "I can handle her uncle Jay. Have fun at the awards!" She says waving. "And get me some pictures on your Instagram!" They both laugh. I wave. "So you're a babysitter now?" She nods and resituates the sleeping 4 year old. She puts her to bed and comes back with her guitar. "I'm gonna play some if y'all don't mind." I smile and sit on the couch. "Fire away." "I'm on a bit of a Miranda Lambert binge." She says making me laugh. Korie sits beside me. "They say that life is so much sweeter from the telephoto lens of fame! But around here you get just as much attention cheerin' at the high school football game!" Wow. She's so good. I love hearing her sing. "I've dreamed of goin' to Nashville, put my money down and place my bet. But I just got the first buck of the season! I made the front page of the turner town gazette!"

Jason's pov

"And ACM entertainer of the year goes to Jason Aldean!" One of my close friends DeeJay reiterates. I laugh softly. Brittany hugs me sideways as we walk to my truck. "Entertainer is the best!" "Especially this year." Brittany flirts, kissing my cheek. I smile. "We gotta get Sam from Willie's." My phone rings. It's our babysitter. I smile softly and answer it. "Hey darlin'." "Congratulations uncle Jay! Much deserved!" She gasps excited. I laugh softly. "Thanks kiddo." "I've got Sam for the night. She's already asleep. No use waking her up now." Brittany smiles hearing her say that. "Thanks. Me and Britt are gonna celebrate my win then." Brittany and DeeJay laugh their butts off. "Oh can you pull some strings and see if Broken Bow Records wants me?" Whoa. "You wanna go into music?" "I'd kill to!" "OK I'll talk to Mike." "Thanks Uncle Jay! You're the best!!"

Miranda's pov

I get off the phone and do a happy dance. "Yahoo!!!!!"
