My Dads Best Friend

Chapter 2

Hayley's POV

"DAD!" I shriek after he punches Andrew, I try pulling my dad off of him but I can't. Soon enough our guest is over here pulling my dad off of Andrew. "Still haven't changed one bit have you Timmy?" A thick country accent voice says chuckling.

"Get off my property before I call the cops." My dad tells Andrew. He stands up walking away.

He reaches his truck and turns around saying "This isn't over." And then get into the car and drives off.

"Luke this is Hayley. Hayley this is my friend Luke who will be staying with us for a while." My Dad introduces us, "Hi it's nice to meet you." I say sticking out my hand for him to shake.

"Yeah I'm sure it is." He responds. I look at him with a disgusted face, and then look at my dad to see if he will say anything but he stays quiet.

"Whatever I'm going to go untack, if you need me I'll be in the barn." I say, "Actually sweetheart I would really appreciate if you could show Luke here around the place. I have some work I need to catch up on. And I'll throw some burgers on the grill." Dad says asking, I nod my head. "Fine let's go." I say trying to hide the annoyance in my voice.

So I start my way to the barn Luke following me. "So who was that guy?" He asks me as I'm taking London's bridle of and putting her halter on. "My ex." Is all I say, "So does your dad do that to all of your ex's?" He asks really pressing, "You know I really don't want to talk about it." I tell him.

"Ok changing the subject who is this?" He says gesturing to the horse, "London." I tell him, clipping the cross ties onto the halter. "What is she?" He asks, "A horse" I tell him asking myself how clueless this guy is. "No I mean what breed is she?" He says clarifying, "Oh she's a thoroughbred." I say undoing the breast-plate, he nods his head.

I finish untacking and put London away in her stall. "Ok well let's introduce you to all the horses first." (That will be on the next chapter for all of you to see)

"So next this is the tack room." I say opening the door. I then show him where everything is in there and after I continue to show him where we keep grain and supplements.

Then where we keep the hay, and after that I show him where the wheelbarrows and pitchforks are kept. "And that is the gate to use for the horses outside. The gate always needs to be shut tight. If not the wind could blow it open and the horses could get out. Any questions?"

"Where do I sleep?"
