My Country Boy

COUNTRY BOY I LOVE YOUUUUU!!!!

This will probably be my last imagine in this book!!

P.s- This was not a request!! I'm currently working on them

Anyway, enjoy 🦚
Btw- Y'all are 6 years old in this imagine!

I laid back in the grassy field by my house. Letting the breeze run through my bare feet.

Momma and Papa are arguing again. They argue almost everyday, it's been getting constant day by day.

Ilena told me it's because momma doesn't wanna take me to texas with her.

But i'm tired being here in Carolina. South carolina at that.

Sometimes i get to see my friend michael though. We've been friends for quite some time now.

"hey y/n"! i hear somebody shout from afar. I sit up and see michael, he's standing behind the gate that separates our field from his. He has on a little blue overalls and and his farmers hat.

I quickly get up from my spot on the ground and run over to the gate. My little dress swaying in the wind.

"did you bring it"? i say running to the wooden fence. He pulled out a little glass angel.

We promised to burry it with my cat milky, we got the name from her snow white fur. She got ran over by Mr. John last week.

"you ready"? i can still hear my parents yelling. "yeah let's go" they'll still be at it while i'm gone anyway.

I climb over the wooden fence jumping down with a thud. He grabbed my hand running down the field to the oak tree where we buried milky.

•
"i love you milky and i'm sorry Mr. John ran over you". We stand over top of her grave. I take the glass angel from michael and stick it in the damp mud covering her.

"i'm sorry about you cat y/n" michael hugged me. "it's ok, she was getting a little old anyway". Momma got me milky when Ilena was a baby, and Ilena is 10.

"i've brought you something else"! he pulled out a little pound cake in plastic wrap. I love when he brings me these, my mother won't let me eat them.

•

"have you seen Ilena"? michael asked me attempting to do a cartwheel in front of me.

"no, but i've heard that momma is taking her to texas, and not me" i nite into the pound cake.

"why can't you go"?

"i don't know, papa told me i'm to young, and wouldn't understand" i shrug.

"that's not fair, you should be able to go, you know what, just when they're about to leave you should jump into the haystack and stay there until you get to texas" he smiled.

"that's a good idea, but it'll probably never get done because they'll be using the haystack for luggage".

"well, you could teleport there"?! he smiles. "no michael....i can't teleport there, it's impossible to do that"!

I'm trying not to worry about it much, i just don't want Ilena to go. She's my 2nd best friend. And when she's gone it'll be boring. I won't miss momma though.

"you ever argue with your sisters and brothers"? i ask him hoping he would say yes so i wouldn't feel alone. "sometimes but not all the time" he picked up a flower off the ground.

"your lucky though...you have a lot of siblings, you'll never get bored" i wish momma had more children, that way i'll never get bored.

Ilena is always out at school or over nana house. So i never really get to see her throughout the day.

But when i wake up in the morning there is always a note on my dresser with a little candy.

"i promise you, you don't want anymore siblings, all they do is tease you and stuff and it's worse when jospeh does it too" he pouts.

Really? Ilena never tease me before, momma and papa most certainly don't either. "hey, i bet you can't race me to that other oak tree"? i point to the tree in the distance, trying to cheer him up.

"i bet i can"! he poked my cheeks. Before i could even get up he started before me. Running as fast as he could to get to the other tree.

"your cheating"!! i shout running behind him. Of course he beat me in racing, i'm not even that good of a runner.

But i did it just to cheer him up.

For the rest of the day we snuck around eating Mr. Charles apples out his yard. We played ring-around-the rosy. And we picked flowers for Ms. Mills.

She even let us pet her baby lamb, Milton that was just born. We played hide and seek and played in the pond with the ducks.

"Y/N"!!! my mother called. It must be time to go in, i have been outside all day.

"are you gonna come out tomorrow"? michael asked me as i climbed back over the fence. "sure, only if you bring me a cake" i joke.

"ok, but before i go, put this on" he laid a flower crown on my head. How did he make this so quickly?

Who cares? "y/n? you bid your friend goodbye now" my mother said from the porch. Her deep serious voice gives me chills.

"goodbye mike" i wave at him. He waved back running back down the field to his house.

I watched him as his figure bobbed up and down, until i couldn't see him anymore.

I love my friend, my country boy.

-Hope you enjoyed 🦚
