*Gabrielle's POV*

"Gabrielle London! Get your arse outta bed! Gotta get practicing for the rodeo!" My brother, Brandon yelled.

"Yeah yeah 5 more minutes" I mumbled.

Then Brandon opened the door and let in Mac, my chocolate lab who was about 6 months. He hopped on my bed and nosed my face to wake me up.

"I'm up! Hey pretty boy" I cooed.

"Good to know, you know we don't sleep like that in Texas. Get your arse up. We got chores to do and Wrangler is waitin' on ya!" Brandon yelled.

I hopped up, pulled on my worn out jeans, a tshirt and my favorite cowboy boots. I washed my teeth and face, fixed my messy hair, and headed downstairs.

"Morning mom!" I chirped, plopping three big pancakes on my plate.

"Mornin hon. So, I was on the internet today and saw that Niall and his band had a break, so I booked you a ticket to go see em! Maura said it's fine! You leave in three days!" Mom chirped.

I spit out all my food at this comment.

"Mom! The rodeo is in two days, I will be exhausted. I won't even have time to pack. I need to do good at this rodeo!" I yelled.

"I will pack for you, and you can sleep on the plane. I already told her you were coming so...." My mom trailed off.

"Great" I groaned. On the bright side, I get to go see Ni!

*After Breakfast*

"I heard your gonna go to Ireland to see Niall" My dad said as I walked into the barn.

"Yup, will you watch Wrangler? I would die if something happened to him!" I asked, popping the 'p'.

"Course I will. Now go saddle up and practice. Your gonna need it for the rodeo." He chuckled.

I walked over to Wrangler's stall and walked him out. I put on his halter and saddled him up.

"Morning buddy" I cooed. He was red except for around his hooves and a spot on his forehead.

I gave him a treat and put on his bit, hopping up in the saddle and taking off.

He galloped to the spot where we practice, already knowing where to go.

*After practicing barrel racing*

After I unsaddled Wrangler and gave him a bath, I headed inside to try to start packing for my trip to Ireland.
