“You got your hands full, son. She is a trial in a half, but she is a sweetheart underneath.” He shook his head before grabbing his wife’s ass. Damn the man couldn’t keep his hands off her for one minute.
“Yeah the girls are complete opposites even though they got enough attitude for ten women. Just like the boys though, one of the girls likes living on the ranch and the other wants to run as far from it as she can.”
“Just so you know I am not giving up on her. I may be thirty four and she’s twenty, but I want her. I just have to convince her that she wants me too.”
“You are going to have a hell of a time doing it and if you can stick to it, I am sure you will be happy. And she isn’t twenty, she just turned nineteen a couple of months ago. ” He shook his head at me as his wife handed us both a plate of food. Only nineteen she’s a fucking kid, but I wasn’t going to be swayed.
“Thank you Mrs. Elliot.” I took a seat at the table just as she came back in. “By the way, there is no if. Sir, I am sure of my course.” I wasn’t going to give up until I had no chance at all.
“Do you know how to ride a horse, Mr. Montgomery?” She looked at me with tension in her eyes.
“Since, I lived in the city most of my life and rarely saw a horse, the opportunity passed me by. Why babe? You going to teach me? That’s so sweet of you.” Her dad winked at me. Hey, I needed to get in with her anyway I could.
Evelyn
“Fine city boy, you want to learn how to ride a horse. I will show you. Let’s see what you got. After I come back from the store, I come and get you” I said, as I took a bite of my food. I liked to eat and if he didn’t like it, good then I will lose him faster. I wanted him to see the real me, so he would go running. I wasn’t meant to be a city man’s wife. A strange idea popped into my head, maybe we could be lovers, hell that sounds like a great idea. If he keeps looking at me like that it may just work. Who am I kidding? I wasn’t that type of girl.
“Going after we come back from the store will work perfectly.” He said confidently, as he finished off the last of the food on his plate.
Did he think he was coming with me to the store? “I said I was going to the store, not you.”
David gave me a look that said don’t play that game with me. He put down his fork and looked me right in the eyes and said calmly, “Babe, I said I am going with you. I don’t want any of those cowboys trying to steal my girl while I am just sitting here. Understood? Now finish your food so we can go.” He stood up and took the plate and put it in the sink. He started washing it when my mom swatted his hand. “Relax David, you are a guest here.” Abashed the city boy came back to the table to enjoy his coffee as he continued to stare at me.
“Not for long, it seems.” My dad said with a shrug and laughed into the glass of milk he brought to his mouth. I don’t know what the hell he meant by it, but he seemed to think it was funny.
Chapter 4:
David
We left the house and got to the truck when she tried to do the driving. I stopped her and pinned her lightly against the car door. “Babe, when I am around, I do the driving and you sit in the passenger seat, looking pretty.” I took the keys from her hand and bent down to sneak a quick peck on her lips. Big mistake, I was like a shark at the scent of blood, I was frenzied. She didn’t know how to quite handle my level of insanity right now. My hands pinned hers above her head as I took her mouth again. I didn’t want to stop. If it was not for the sound of a vehicle driving by, I would have been lost.
Damn for a woman who scared off men, they must have not kissed her. Thank to fucking god. I pulled away and looked at the disheveled Evie, “You good baby?” She looked a bit stunned as she rubbed her lips. Then she was back.
“Don’t call me that! I am not your baby.” She jumped into the passenger seat pissed off, like she wasn’t a hundred percent in that kiss, but her ass had been all over me. “Don’t kiss me again David. I don’t want to be anything to you.” I was trying to control the pissed off feeling I was getting. Of all the chicks I have tossed to the side this one wants to play hard to get.
“Listen Evelyn, I don’t know what hang ups you got. I know I got my own, but I am going to tell you one thing is for sure, you are mine.” I started the truck, trying to calm down. I was normally a laid back kind of guy who didn’t care for confrontation. Yet this girl is itching for a fight. One that she wasn’t going to win.
“Whatever city boy,” was all the response I got from her. When we got into town I parked in the town’s only grocery store parking lot. Which had space for about twenty cars, max. It was weird to be here in small town, America. In Chicago this would almost be considered a convenience store, it was that small. I guess my surprise was clear on my face when she snapped off, again on my ass.
