The Surprise of a Life Time!

[arzu]

She smiled as he kissed her, good because I was not going to give you a choice to ride or not. She chuckled and watched as he found his boots, she leaned against the wall, yep and then those flies will tell there buddies about the horrible thing they witnessed. She smiled and felt him hug her, I love you too. She spoke, yes you may kind sir, she took his arm and shut the door behind them as they walked out into the yard. My guess as to where they are is as good as your guess is going to be. She chuckled and looked around Thunder would have not wandered to far from where she was but he would have also followed Monty, that was always the weird thing about him, he kind of made a split second choice and then went with it. She continued to look around and then spotted two small figures, up there she pointed. She watched as the darker of the two started to come back and then got closer and closer and now she could tell it was Thunder, he was heading for a crash course into both of them and then he skidded to a halt and then touch his nose to Alias face, like saying hi where on earth have you been? Alia chuckled and scratched his nose, waiting.

[CheytheAWESOME]

Clayton laughed at her joke.' Poor flies."He looked around as they stepped outside and saw the two small figure's. He watched as she pointed and he was wroung where he was looking and saw one figure running pretty fast toward them too. Clayton smiled when he saw the palomino gelding run up to Alia and just slide to a stop. Clayton shook his head and knew that Monty wasn't gonna come in no matter what. So he looked at Alia and smiled." Might want to close your ears." He told her. He put his two fingers to his lips and then he took and breath and breathed out and loud peiecing whistle came out of his mouth. Clayton stopped and saw Monty's head jerk up and coming over the hills at a trot. Clayton smiled and looked at Alia."Here come's my lazy boy." He pointed at Monty. It took a while cause then Monty decide to walk the rest the way back. Clayton rolled his eye's." Come on Lazy." He talked to monty and monty just picked up his ears like "you love me". Clayton smiled and Monty followed him into the barn. He placed Monty into a stall will he went to the tack room.

[arzu]

She nodded as he said poor flies, well at least one horse knew to come back and did not have to be whistled for, she covered her ears as he whistled, un covering them when he was done. Thunder looked at him like what im already here, what more could you want? It seemed like two hours before Monty finally made it, Thunder waited for his owner to walk to the barn. She turned and headed into the barn the gelding following behind her. turning around, he froze looking at her head slightly tilted. She wrinkled her nose at him and he mimicked her, She opened the door to a stall and pointed the gelding trotted in and she shut the door going to grab his tack, coming back she set the stuff down in the stall, She put the pad on and went to grab the saddle she had dropped, turning around he had pulled the pad off, she grabbed it from his mouth placed it back on his back and threw the saddle up cinching it. She glared at him and stuck her tongue out at him, Thunder just did the same. She slipped the bridle into his mouth and then he stepped on her toes and applied all his weight, fuck. She hit his leg but he would not remove it, you brat get off my foot. Nope that did not work either, well something had to give and she knew what that was going to be, she grabbed a hold of his leg and just managed to get it up enough to get her foot out before he slammed it back down. She hobbled out of the stall and shut the door sliding down on the floor, she had to get the boot off before it swelled, slipping her boot off. She could already see it swelling, Clayton I need ice and aspirin the brat murder my foot. She spoke, leaning against the stall, waiting.

[CheytheAWESOME]

Clayton walked into the tack room and began to grab all his tack. He began walking back to the stall and placed everything onto the stall. He looked at Monty and Monty looked back at him. He opened the door and dusted the dirt off of his splashed coat witha small body brush. Monty always seemed it find a way to get dirty and really he didn't understand why he always had to be dirt. Once he was somewhat clean and checked for stickers under his belly. He grabed the white saddle pad and sat it on his back nice and easy. He checked both sides of the pad to make sure it sat on his wither's. Then he stepped back grabbed the saddle and in one swift motion placed it on top of Monty's Back. Monty stood there watching him and would look over to see the other gelding beside him. Clayton was finishing up Monty when he heard Alia cuse. Then he knew something wasn't right. He never heard her cuse alot. Clayton grabed the reins and placed them around Monty's neck and tied them. He walked out to see Alia hobbling out of Thunder's stall. He wasn't mad but walked up to her and picked her up and took her to a bench." I got it." He told her and went into the Office and grabed some Aspirin and a bag of ice out of the freig that was in there. He came back with a rag around the ice and saw down beside her and placed her hurt foot in his lap nice and gentle. He gave her a Aspirin and had brough a water bottle out of the freg,but it was in his pocket. He gave it to her."[/b] There you go Baby."[/b] He placed the ice pack nice and careful on her foot. He looked at her and frowned." Maybe we should just go inside.I'll carry you inside and I'll come back and untack the horse's.' He looked at her. She needed to keep that foot on Ice. He knew that maybe she wouldn't like the idea,but he didn't care what she tought. He was going to take care of her and until that foot was better she wasn't gonna be doing any ridding. Clayton got up and easly placed her foot down and looked at her. He placed a smile on his face. He would wait to see what she said.

As he picked her up, she wrapped her arms around his neck. It gave her a little piece of mind that she would not fall. He set her on a bench and then left, she watched him walk into the office and then come back out. Thank you she spoke and took the aspirin and shut her eyes, ya that’s fine, I would not be able to get my foot back into my boot nor into a stirrup and I don’t want to see the brat, she spoke simply and looked at him. Well this kind of put a damper on the day she sighed and felt him pick her leg up and set it down nicely but it did not matter every time he set it down it still hurt. She cringed and then looked at him, well this is only round one im sure there are going to be many more times you carry me over the threshold of our home. She chuckled and bumped the foot on the bench, she shut her eyes and held in from screaming, with more swear words which could have followed but she did a good job, oh ya that hurts. She spoke with a hint of pain and irritation. Im ready when you are she spoke and waited.

[CheytheAWESOME]

Clayton frowned at her. He was pretty bummed out that Alia was hurt on a really wonderful day. He picked her up and smiled at her. He made sure she had her ice packet and boot before walking toward the house with her in his arms." Well I wonder why. I hope I only have to do it a couple times." he looked at her and laughed with her. As he got closer to the house he heard the dog's barking. Yeah he knew that both of the dogs are going to be wanting out. Clayton got to the door and opened the door. The house was alot different than the last home they had. It was a much bigger home which Clayton loved and you could see the kitchen from the living room as well as the dinning room from the kitchen. Clayton walked her to the couch and placed her nice and carefuly on the couch." Tell me what you need before I go back out." He told her and smiled and sat on the couch beside her. He could already see each other when they got a family and during the winter. If it what he planned on having a big cattle ranch. He was gonna need lots of help from his family,unless his kids are too young to ride then he will have Alia and the kids stay in the feed truck while looked for the babies. Clayton already had his life planned out which was good for him. He looked at her and waited to see what she had to say.

[arzu]

She shook her head, ya lets hope. She smiled as he carried her to there new home. As they entered, she noted it was bigger then the last but it was still homey and she could not wait to have kids running around and they would be big help. She sighed as he set her down on the couch he sat down next to her, im fine I don’t need anything and if you want to you can take Monty for a ride I will be fine. She leaned forward and kissed him before sitting back, I may take a nap. She spoke yawning, our little tango is now catching up to me. Alyssa chuckled and looked over at him, but when you come back in I want your undivided attention. She chuckled, no I at least want to cuddle with you when you get back. she smiled and waited.

[CheytheAWESOME]

Clayton smiled at her and went back to seeing what he needed to do for her. He knew she could hobble around everywhere,but that wasn't nice for him to see her hobble everywhere. Clayton didn't want to go riding without her. It wouldn't be fair if he went out to look around and her not beside him. Clayton frowned and then knew that he needed to go do something so that she could rest. "Alright Alia"He looked at her and walked to the door and looked at her one more time and took Cinich outside with him. Then began his was back to the barn to unsaddle the horse's and grain them.

Once Clayton got to the barn he looked at monty and frowned." Sorry you guys. No riding today." He went to Monty began to unsaddle him and unbridle him.Monty stood there like last time he wasn't sure why he was being unsaddled,but it didn't bother him any really. Clayton shrugged and took his tack to the tack room and placed everything nice and neatly on the saddle rack. He walked back to thunder's stall and knew to becareful around him cause he wasn't used to men." Easy there buddy. Just gonna take your tack off." He spoke to him nice and easy. Clayton wasn't mad at Thunder for stepping on Alia's foot. It happened to everyone. He took his stepped nice and easy. Then began to uncinich the saddle. Once the saddle was off he took off Thunder's bridle. He shut the door back after he walked out and went to the tack room to set the tack on the saddle rack. Clayton took a detuor to feed room which made Monty's head come out of the stall to look over to see what he was bringing him.Clayton laughed when he saw Monty's head out of the stall. He went over to Thunder's stall with a bucket and opened up a door that had a hay rack and a feed tray. He flipped the bucket over and the feed ran into the feed tray and he shut the door and went on to Monty which was a little cranky. He feed him aswell and went to put the bucket's back. Once they was all feed he started his walk back to the house.

Clayton walked into the door,but kept Cinich outside. He didn't needed to be inside when Alia was trying to sleep. He could already see Cinich running up and jumping on her and wakeing her up and he didn't want that. Clayton looked at Alia and smiled. He wasn't sure what to eat for himself,but walked into the kitchen and grabed an apple and went back to the living room and sat in his lazy boy chair. He leaned it back and took a nap himself after he ate his apple.

[arzu]

She gave him a smile as he walked out, yawning she made herself comfortable. She curled up, in ways and shut her eyes but sleep did not come right away. She felt bad because she had been looking forward to going on a ride and knew he had been too. Then there was the worry part as Thunder did not like men, so she was scared that he was going to get hurt because of Thunder and she did not feel like running that risk. She turned slightly and pushed everything to the back of her mind and began to relax soon enough she feel asleep. She herd him come back in awhile later and knew that Thunder had been a good boy for him, hearing him did not make her stir she just slept threw everything at least for another hour, she woke the ice had fallen off and her foot looked like a puffer fish and was already bruising. It was quite gross looking all these colors and the swelling, she did not make a peep but sat up and stood hobbling to the bathroom. She hobbled back to the couch and sat down, hitting her foot on the ottoman. Damn it she spoke quite loudly, Ah that fucking hurt. She knew he was still asleep so she felt bad for making so much noise but damn that killed, she picked up the ice and stuck it back on her foot carefully and rested her head against the couch waiting.

[CheytheAWESOME]

Clayton still had is uneatten apple in his hand while he was asleep. He was just thinking about eatting it when his Lazy boy made him fall asleep very fast. Clayton began to snore alittle in his sleep. He was out cause the only time he snored was when he was really tired and which he was. He been having a hard night sleep and thinking way to much about the ranch and Alia. But not he could final go to sleep and not worry about anything. Well not anything until he freakin almost jumped out of his chair hearing Alia cuse about her foot. He looked at her and then back to his apple and smiled."I guess I wasn't hungry." He smiled and placed the apple on the side table and walked over to her and got behind her on the couch and laid beside her with his arm around her. Then he laid there and went back to sleep.Everytime he was wrapped around Alia he would fall asleep. Then he went back to snoreing once agian cause he was a tired little boy. He was making sure his feet didn't touch her hurt foot aswell.

[arzu]

She smiled and then chuckled, lifting her head from the arm rest and watching him set the apple on the table and then come over and lay behind her, his arms wrapped around her. She sighed and relaxed instantly, she loved the feel of being so close to him there was nothing better then that. She yawned and closed her eyes, fall asleep for another couple of hours, when she awoke she felt something tickling her nose so she pulled it off, it was a giant piece of fluffing, she lifted her head seeing it all around the living room and then she looked at his chair and there was Lenny sitting on the arm rest a big gaping hole in the center of the bottom cushion, oh no this is not good, Lenny look what you did. You could hear the strain in her voice, she was pissed once more twice in one day, she was on a roll, could not stop her now. Then she started to laugh but stopped and rolled over to kiss Clayton, hun you might want to wake up we have a slight problem. She waited and left it at that.

[CheytheAWESOME]

Clayton laid down beside Alia and just loved being beside her which didn't take him very long to fall asleep. He aslo felt Alia relax alittle and then felt her light breathing between his arms. He laid as close as he could with her. This was something he was going to love doing. Just taking naps all by themselves and no one spoiling their fun times with their naps. Clayton was dreaming of how his life would plan out to be and what kind of cattle he should by. He felt something on his nose,but just winkled his nose to get it off. He thought it was just a fly,but really it was a peice of fluff. He didn't know until he felt the kiss on him and knew it was Alia. He opened to hear Alia speak."What is it? He said as he rolled over trying to go back to sleep,but felt something on his nose agian and whipped it away. Then he had a feeling there was something bad. So he woke up to see fluff pretty much everywhere around his house. He knew it had to be a dog,but wasn't sure where from. When he sat up he saw Lenny laying on the big hole in his chair. Clayton was firous with that dog now. He walked over picked it up and took it to the back yard. He set the dog down nicely as he could on the porch."Now stay outside until I want you inside. Your gonna learn some manner's."He told Lenny and slammed the back door. He walked into the living room. Looked at his chair alittle more. It wasn't a small hole nor a medium hole. It was a freakin Large hole. Clayton was mad,he wasn't sure if Alia has ever seen Clayton this mad."This chair ain't very cheap. I don't know how to fix it other than throw it out."He said as he started picking up the fluff off the floor. He didn't speak another word other than picking up after Lenny. He took the fluff and threw it in the trash and walked back over to the chair and began looking at it closer. He wonder if he coudl fix it,but wasn't sure.

[arzu]

Alia was a little scared at how angry he got, it made her scared to even want to have kids knowing if they did something wrong he would become like this. She sat up and looked at him as Lenny was put out side and the door slammed, she winced and looked at him. This was not good, not good at all. She crossed her legs and rested her hands in her lap, it was off limits till he could show or tell her he was not going to get this way if they had kids, she sighed it is fixable it may not look like it but send it to a upholstery and they will fix it. she still was not budging with letting her legs relax, in fact she stood. I am going to go upstairs were I don’t have to deal with this and think about if I want to bring kids into the household when you get so upset. She hobbled upstairs and laid down in bed, arms cross and legs crossed, there that should do it he should see that it upset her enough to cause concern with bring kids into this house. She sighed and rolled over, she was not waiting to see if he stormed up here or if he even came up.

[CheytheAWESOME]

Clayton looked at her and before she even got to the stairs he had his boots on and went right out the door. He jumped in his cake truck and off he went to check his cattle. He needed to get out of the house as quick as he can or he might have screwed something up that he didn't want to do. Clayton turned on the music and kept on driving until he reached the gate and opened the gate and went through it to check cattle. He seemed worried about alot of things these days,but knew once he did have childern he would have to get used to them breaking or even ripping things. It was just the dog should know not to chew on things. Clayton flipped the switch that ran the siren and about 15 cows and 15calves came running up along side the bull. Clayton stepped out to check them out which seemed to be all alright. Clayton then opened the cake latch and jumped back in and began to click out 48 clicks of feed onto the ground. He had to watch a couple of heifers to make sure that they didn't have problem's having calves which would be in the next pasture. Clayton drove over back to the fence and went to another gate opened it and done the same thing. He checked the cattle shed that held a couple stalls with hay in there for bedding. He had a chute in there in case he had to pull them out. Clayton then drove back to the house where he saw Cinch waiting for him at the door. He stepped out and walked into the house with Cinch at his feet. He saw he chair and knew it could be repaired. He shook his head and really felt bad for blowing up. He walked to the back door and opened it to let Lenny back in. Then looked at the stairs. He knew he would have to go up there and talk to Alia. So he started up the steps. Clayton sighed and knocked on the bedroom door before walking in."Alia..." He spoke sweetly to her. He knew it wasn't going to help any matter's anyways. So he just dropped it. He walked to the end of the bed and sat down. He didn't care if she looked at him or not. He reached over to touch her leg to see what she did."I'm sorry for getting angry. I shouldn't have gotten so mad at Lenny."He sighed at looked at her."I should have remember that he is still a puppy and they chew on everything."Then he stood up and walked out of the room. He said he was sorry and if she was still thinking then he would give her time to think,but before he walked out the door."I love childern. I couldn't ever get angry at them like that."He said and walked out the door and shut it. He went down stairs and laid on the couch and watched T.V. while he waited for supper time to get here.

[arzu]

The puppy, known as Lenny had escaped from the back. He knew had done something wrong and he did not feel like this was the family for him any more, he was going to become a wild dog. The one thing he could not get off was this stupid collar, he shook and scratched at it but it did not budge. So he gave up and started off down the road, it was turning out to be good so far he could really get use to this. His tongue rolled out as he began to pant with the dulling sun beating on his chocolate coat, he had long pushed the family from his mind, he was done.

Alia sighed listening to him speak, She jumped as he put his hand on her leg, pulling it away. She never once looked at him, as he was leaving he said one finally thing. She rolled over and looked at the door but did not budge, then finally she had enough thinking and alone time and went back down stairs. It was even more of a challenge getting down with one good foot but she managed. The back door was open but there was no Lenny, did he come back in when you opened the door? She questioned softly and then it hit her, omg he ran away. He had done it once before and she was always worried he would do it again and now he had, she went over to the door and looked out, there sure was no puppy just empty land. She shut it and walked over to Clayton standing in front of him, you stuck him outside you go find him. There was a knock at the door and she looked at him, you are lucky. That’s all she said as she hobbled to the door and opened it, the cop had backed off and she came out, shutting the door behind her. Im guessing you are Alia? She nodded, he looked down and then back up at her, I picked up you dog about twenty minuets ago he was on the main road, im sorry to say he was hit by a car but I got him to a vet and he is going to be ok he was going into surgery to repair his hip and he was in shock but he has sense calm down, they said they would call you after word but I wanted to let you know myself. She nodded, thank you she spoke softly. Just doing my job, that’s all he said then he walked off and got back into his car and drove away, she went back into the house and sat down on the ottoman, they found Lenny hes at the vets, going into surgery to repair his hip, because he was hit. Thats all she said as she looked at him, she still could not believe it.
