My Crazy Boy (sequel to My Crazy Girl)

chapter 31 happily ever after?

My alarm blared to loud to ignore it. I pushed the snooze button as  I opened my eyes once everything became clear I looked around. The room was a light bue color. There was pictures along the wall of different memories. Rodeo champion belt buckles were where every I could find room plus trophys.

I got up and headed to the bathroom. I combed my hair out and put it in a pony tail. I threw on a tang top and jeans finishing it with my belt and my champion bronc belt buckle. I went down the stairs to my kitchen. I popped some toast into the toaster. Then I put bacon in my microwave. I started the  coffee maker  and looked out the window while drinking coffee and while my bacon  was cooking.

The lazy P ranch is what I named the ranch after I got it. It was  stretched all over 15,000 acres. We had about 1,500 cows that we had on the ranch and raised. We had even started rasing  horses. We both sale them and keep them for the ranch hands. I had about 10 ranch hands. Where the house stood, south of it about 45 yards was the huge bunk house where all the boys stayed. The barn was still in the same place but I expanded it to about 55 stalls plus a tack, feed room and office. The calving barn was also the same place but with add ons. We had several pens. Round pens, roping pens, chutes for both horses and cattle. Square pens, 
The lazy P ranch was the biggest ranch in 3 counties in each direction. Weather it was in cattle or in horses. I finished my breakfast, slipped my boots on and went out. My ranch hands were all over this place this morning just like every morning. I said hello to all of them that i passed. I walked into my office and got to work.

I sat on top the fence of a round pen. The afternoon sun blearing down on the land. I had Phil on top of the fence next to me. He was my top ranch hand. We watched as another one of my ranch hands Barney trotted his horse in a circle.

"He was lame this morning." Barney told us.

"Did you look at his hoof?" I asked as I watched them go round and round.

"Yep. It was just fine."

"Well he must have stepped on it wrong. He seems fine now."

"Ok thanks Boss."

"Your welcome but it's just Holly." I told him as I got down. Once down I pulled my sunglasses off my head on to my face.  I started up to the house when a pair of arms wrapped around me and started to spin me.

"Put me down!" I laughed. The arms put me down and spun me around to come face to face with my husband for 5 going on 6 years, Hunter Gilbert. After he started working with me we stopped being stubborn we told each other how we felt. After we graduated  we got married. It was hard there for a while.

Flashback

"Holly! I got accepted into Gergia State!" I grabbed him into a hug. "Congrats!"

"Did you get accepted?"

"Hunter I didn't even applied. I can't leave the Lazy P. I just got it going and my parent finally signed it over to me."

"I'm sorry I forgot just caught up in the moment. We will make it work. And I'm telling you that the Lazy P ranch will be well know all over."

Flashback over

He would come home to vist  and I would go down there and vist we made it work.

"Your home early." I said capturing my lips with his. He made it to the NFL. Just like he dreamed of.

"I told them I needed to see my wife."

"Did you? And they let you go just like that?"

"Ok maybe the coach had a family emergency."

"It doesn't matter your home." I said as we walked to the house. He sat on a bar stool as I cooked.

"Where's your parents?"

"Somewhere. Don't really know or care." He came behind me wrapping me in a hug.

"That's my girl. After everything they've done to ya I'm glad to hear that answer. How's my parents?"

"They are fine. Your mom was not thrilled about your dad buying another bike or one for her either. Exact words were Brantley Keith Gilbert you did not! Heard her all the way down here." He let out a booming laugh. This is were I wanted to be. I had a husband that loved me and I loved him. We had it pretty great.

"I love you." I said snuggling up to him as he put his hands on my swelling belly.

"I love you too."
