She couldn't believe that it was only a year ago. She was in an accident, dreams came true, and her life fell apart, and she inspired many people all in one week and was a year ago. She sits under that tree looking back on everything. The thought of it is inspiring her with a new song. She writes some ideas down in a notebook beside her. After, she leans back on the tree and strums her guitar. "One year ago," keeps coming into her mind.
As she continues to think, she can sense someone watching her. The girl turns her head. She smiles at a woman standing on a porch of a house near her. The woman then walks slowly over to her. "Working on something new Mikayla?" she asks. Mikayla nods. "Yeah kind of. I still can't really put into the words what happened. I really want to, but I just can't find it." The woman pats Mikayla on the shoulder. "You'll think of something. Why don't you come in and have some food for right now? The break might help you think." Mikayla gets up and they both walk into the house. The first thing there greeted by is an all black german sheppherd and two great danes. "Hey pups." Each dog gets a pat on the head. They all follow the two people out into the dining room. There is a man sitting at the table in there. "Hey Alicia." He stands up to give Alicia a kiss. He then turns to Mikayla. "I heard a little of what you were doing out there. You stuck?" Mikayla sits across from him. "Yeah." She sighs a little.
The man puts a book he was reading down. "Just relax and focus on something else for awhile." Mikayla stays silent for a second. "Ok." He smiles then goes to help Alicia with the food.
After dinner, Mikayla heads to her room. The german sheppherd follow her. He hops the bed with her. "Hey Pepper, how's my buddy?" Pepper barks. "Guess that means good." Pepper barks again. Mikayla laughs a little. "Ok, you're my good boy." She lays back on the pillows on the bed. Pepper curls up closer to her. They both fall asleep.
**********************
The next day, Mikayla gets up early and goes outside. She heads over to a little building across from the house. A black and white pinto horse's head is sticking out of a window. "Hey Smokey. How is my girl today?" The horse neighs. Mikayla pats her nose. "Let's go on a little ride." Mikayla pushed the bottom half of a door open. She grabs a brush off a shelf and gets Smokey ready. The horse is saddled up and ready in less than twenty minutes.
Mikayla tries to make Smokey walk slowly at first. Smokey doesn't really go for it though. She just wants to go fast all the time. Mikayla loves this about her. That's why Smokey was and is still a great race horse. Eventually, Mikayla gives in and lets Smokey go a little faster. Soon, they are zooming around acres and acres property known as John Schneider Studios. They run down the dirt roads and threw the grass like there's no tomorrow. Mikayla stops her though once ten minutes passes. Mikayla then attempts to bring Smokey back into the small barn. Smokey tries to resist a few times, but eventually gives in. She enjoys getting brushed again though. She espeically likes getting her lunch. Mikayla pats her neck as Smokey bends down to eat. "Good girl," Mikayla says as well before shutting the door and leaving. As Mikayla gets closer to the house and onto the porch, John is walking out with dogs following close behind her. Alicia comes out a minute later. "Are you ready to go Mikayla?" he asks. Mikayla pauses for a second. "Yeah, hold on." Mikayla races into the house and grabs some bags from her room. Mikayla also grabs her guitar case as she cracks the door up a little. Mikayla knows how much Pepper hates it when the door isn't left open.
Right before Mikayla goes out the door, Mikayla pets Pepper on the head. "Bye baby boy. I'll miss you." She says bye to the other dogs then shuts the door. John and Alicia are waiting for her in a rv parked outside. Within a minute, they're out on the road heading toward Tennessee.
****************
As soon as they reach Tennessee, the rv is parked in the marked off spot for artists. Once everything is set up on the stage, the three explore the town a little bit. They eat at a local place like they always do, then head back to the theare. By then, it is an hour until people start coming in for the show. When the time hits 7:46, Mikayla goes on. Like always, John and Alicia stand backstage and watch her set. Every time she amazes them in some way. This time, Mikayla gets a little girl to come on stage to sing with her.
After Mikayla's set, she goes out to meet a few people. She gets a picture with the little girl and her family. Mikayla goes back onto the stage after them to introduce John. He smiles at her as he walks onto the stage.
About an hour into John's set, he asks Mikayla to come out and sing a few songs with him. As they begin to sing, the crowd cheers louder than they did for the last one. At the end of it, a lot of yeehaas is heard from the crowd. Mikayla and John both do one too while walking off the stage. They set their guitars down and follow Alicia out into the lobby. Basically the whole audience was out there wanting to meet John. Whenever the time was moving closly to 10:40, the line had three people in it. He talked to and took pictures with those people then him and Mikayla got their stuff. As they walked out to the rv, someone came up to Mikayla. She stopped and talked as Alicia and John got in. Alicia watched as Mikayla shook his hand and walked over to the rv. Ever since the craziness happened last year, Alicia and John have refused to let Mikayla out of their sight at shows or events. They were going through hell last year when it all happened. There's no way they're gonna let something like that happen again.
