New Beginnings

Its a small world

chapter two : ITS A SMALL WORLD .

As I head up the river I heard the distant sound of hooves through water added to the sound of a casual moo, shit someone must be move'n cattle, but hey they might need some help or work and I do need the money I thought giving charlie a quick pat on the neck , leanig back I did the same for bubba who was leading behind, as I rounded the bend in the river I was meet by the behind of a rather large herd of herifords and what a surprise jhase was tailing behind

so I just causally walked up and went "boo" with a quite laugh, his face was like ahh what the hell "hahah hi jade what ya do'n here " " ah well im going up stream so yeah do yas need help" and with that he holled 'hey dad jade my friend , was woundering if ya needed more help " with a pleading look haha least I know I have a friend now and with that his dad holled back " yeah thats all good seeming the herds a bit fiestiy we need the help so ill pay her 100 bucks at the end of the muster" sweet I couldve ask for more but oh well itll do the job for now " haha sweet ok jade so you can head up on the left side and just keep em going up stream " he said looking at me with his god for saken sexy eyes and his perfect smile , so I did what he said and did that for a couple more hours with a few hollas here and there , a few whistles to the dogs but other ways it was silent.

jhases dad was taller than him but other ways he was the same apart form having the odd wringle here and there I found him a cheerful person but rather stern at times but he was nice so it didn't matter . I looked at my phone it was 6 o'clock and just getting dark , no texts thats a good thing when your on the run , it was just getting dark when we reached the yards but still enough light from the gorgeous pink and purple sunset to see what we were doing so we hearded the cattle into the yards along with the horse's , mark, jhases dad,said he was heading in to get the cabin fire going so it was just me and jhase doing the grooming.

as we put the dogs into the kennels with a few biscuits each, we were just standing there waiting for etheir one of as to speak then I heard it footsteps coming up the river someone was coming , yelling " jade I know your up here just come here it will make it easier for me " it was her clair I could her the evil seeping from her voice she must of been about 150 metres away, I turned to jhase he was looking at me with a all most scarred and meaningful look he grapped my hand "shh dont say anything she'll hear you, here come sit in here, ill tell dad I dont know what happened but I think I have a fear idea" taking me to a old shed coverd in vines and surrounded with trees , I hid in the corner, sweating with fear I creeped to the door and listerned I could hear talking , shit footsteps were coming, I forced myself to move and hid again I was shaking, shaking with fear for jhase, the door opened violently the footsteps come closer, closer then just a few feet away they stopped.

"jade" I stayed still with shoke I couldnt move I let out a sobb I was scarred more scarred than I'd ever been "jade its me jhase I wont hurt you where are you jade " I cryed and cryed jhase must off heard me becuase I was in his arms " im scared im so scared " that's all I said and he told me he knew, he knew everything, my parents, what happened, everything. it must have been a while since he found me cause when he lead me out of the old shed it was pitch dark I couldnt see a thing, I couldnt hold my self I was to weak from crying , he held me close , I heard something in the bushes and tensed , she was back "shh its alright its just arrow " , I found courage and gave him a hug and we walked back to the cabin mark was asleep, he must have cooked tea cause it was on the table but I wasnt hungry , there was only one bed so we shared I didnt mind seeming how close we were as friends now, he held me like he was never letting go and I slept I was sad but yet happy to be with jhase, happy i'd meet him, happy he was here, happy he knew but sad I lived this life why couldnt I be like the other teens.

The next morning I woke. I was wearing the some clothes from yesterday so I decided to get up and change before anyone else woke, I went to go get up but there was a heacy weight round my waist, jhases arm oh god I forgot we fell asleep toghter.

well thats awkward. but it made me happy I was liked.

The tea was still on the table so I just ate that seeming I hadn't eated in 24 hours I guess ild forgotten so I ate that down with pleasure.

###### jhases point of veiw ########

the sun was bright, really bright in my eyes so i decided to just get up but she wasnt next to me like last night, where is she , she hasnt token of has she? I searched the cabin . nothing. where is she, god please be here.

thank god I thought as she was just with the horses quitly talking to them and giving them a good brush, "morning sunshine" I said pleased to see her still here " oh hey sorry if I freaked you out I just wanted to see the horses " god I love her smile unlike yesterday it was real but I could see she was still unsure " its fine jade " I said with a smirk , god shes so gorgeous, I think I have more than the friend sorta feelings " haha yeah do you know your a good friend " trading the smirk back, this made me laugh , loud and true like real friends do not caring if you looked stupid, when I relised I sounded like a crazy sounding frog I stoped and I must off looked funny cos she cracked up laughing like I'd never heard, it wasnt the fake sorta laugh most girls do it was a real country girls laugh which made her even hotter.

man I was fulling hard for this runner way girl

As we rode she sang im not sure what but hell she is good like luke bryan good . And hell can see ride.

the musters 3 days long, traveling up the river till we reach the sale yards where their sold, hopfully we get a good price this year , thats not the best thing though to get a good price, its the veiw on the ride, bright green weepying willow edge the river side, surrounded by tassock pastures rolling on either banks its so nice up here in new zealand , the land of the long white cloud thats what the native maoris call it along with Aoateroa.

The herd was big, bigger than last year with 500 steers strong along with the 4 horses arrow my horse a blacky/grey standard breed, top gun (nick named gunny boy ) he's dad horse and only dads horse he wont let anyone else ride him, but hopefully ill ride him one day soon when he trusts me, hes a qauter horse gelding and then theres jades horses charlie a paint gelding round 14 hands, last but not lest bubba she bout 15 hands, strong and quite, good stock horse, being a station bred mare.

A world with out horses would suck, people say their just a horse well their more, their pretty smart to, but thats not what the townies at school say they say they smell and are dangerous but only if they actually knew

thank god I dont go to school now, dad let me leave if I worked on the farm and focused more on rodeo.

I havent told jade how I knew yet I will soon, just not yet.

dad and mum were friends with her parents before the accident, she was only 3, they crashed on their way home, the truck flip 8 times and seeming jade was so little and in a car seat she lived, her mum was pregnant with her brother, 12 weeks through, her dad was the one driving some people say he was drunk but he wasnt it was a rumor, she was the only one to live, mum and dad tryed to get custody of her, she had no family and her parents were quite people known in the rodeo world but didnt have many friends, it was hard to try get custody but they couldnt because the doctors said mum only had 2 mouths to live.

so we lost the custody and I think that's what killed mum, losing hope and she died, melanoma is what killd her.

I was 4 when she died so I dont remember much, but I still miss her everyday. so does dad you can see it in his eyes.

But now we that shes with us we wont let her go. never I love her to much to let her go.

she has to know before she finds out another way.
