A Southern Love Story

Chapter 7: Date night

Marilyn's pov

It's Friday night and I can't find my muddin shirt anywhere!! My phone begins to ring as it is Brad texting me.

Brad: I have your shirt in the toolbox of my truck.

Mari: can you bring it here please??

Brad: sure be over in a sec.

Mari: thanks

After Brad brought me my shirt I went downstairs to ask Kyle if he had changed my tires for the mud run.

"Did you put my swampers back on Ky? "

"Yeah I just finished changing them. hey, please be careful your chains and winch are hooked back up. Call me when you make it out of the mud hole. "

"Thank you ky, you're the best and I will." Kyle has always had my back and protects me like a dad but still has that wild party guy attitude.

I ran upstairs to put my boots on and French braid my hair to keep it out the way. I changed into my favorite Levi's jeans. My phone began to sing Brantley Gilbert's Bottoms up, Chad's ringtone so I answered preparing myself to be bailed on.

"Hey beautiful! " he calls me beautiful like it's my name.

"Hey"

"I'm outside so you can follow me there"

"I'll be right out "

"Okay "

With that I grabbed my keys and ran outside to my truck and checked my toolbox to make sure I had all I need and climbed in.

After about 20 minutes we were at the mud run and it was packed. I parked my truck and entered the mud run, I hope my 91 Dodge will pull through.

"Wanna beer? " said Chad.

"You know I wouldn't turn down a cold one. " I said taking the second beer out of his hand.

We went and sat on his tailgate watching the big boy trucks go through the mud. He pulled me onto his lap and just stared into my eyes. He's so dreamy.

"Why are you so gorgeous? " he asked interrupting my thoughts.

" 'Cause God spends more time on country girls hun." and that was the truth.

"Good answer. " then he kissed me, the fireworks were so unrealistic they were amazing. I was stunned but we kept kissing non stop until they called his name to get to the starting line, I was so pissed.

We hopped into his truck and got ready to go through the mud. I was ready to get dirty.

When he reached the end I was almost covered in mud. Then it was my turn to drive so I ran to my truck and hopped in. I was so nervous to go by myself so Chad said he would keep me company as I went.

I got to the start, revved up my engine and plunged through the mud, laughing as I kept going through and mud splashing me, then I reached the end and everyone that was by the mud hole was covered in mud. I parked my truck and walked back to Chad's truck to finish where we left off.

Chad picked me up and laid me down in the bed of the truck. He laughed at me as he wiped mud off my face.

"Such a muddy girl."

"That's how you like girls isn't it? " I giggled.

"Only when they look like you " he said flashing me this smirk that made my knees weak.

We walked around hand in hand looking at all the trucks. I've had like 6 beers and I'm feelin like I can fly.

"let's get out of here. " he said.

"alright. Kyle's on the way to tow my truck so I'm going to ride with you. "

"Good"

He drove me home like a gentleman.

"Will you stay with me Chad? "

"What do you mean? "

"Will you stay the night? " I said

"But your brothers... "

"They won't notice, just stay please "

"Okay "
