[> The Answer: Part IV -- Rodeo, 01:47:35 04/08/06 Sat [1]

He stared up expectantly at me through the screen door. My stomach was a bit squeamish, I was afraid about what was to come. How was I going to handle this? I could go in one direction and be angry and scream away, or I could just take this like a woman and rough it out. I unlatched the door and closed it carefully behind me. The last thing I wanted to do right now was wake up one of the other horsemen, they needed rest. I envied them, this would be the second night in a row I wouldn’t get any sleep. I crossed my arms as I shivered. I should have put on a shirt before I came out, it was freezing. I stole a glance into his deep ocean eyes as I passed, and continued to walk into the night, me leading the way to who knew where.

He gazed at the amazing curves of her body. She was in nothing but a sports bra and a baggy pair of blue pajama pants. He was shocked to see how weak and tired she looked. He could tell this ordeal had taken a lot out of her. She looked exceptionally pale when the moonlight shone on her face and he wondered if she was sick.

I felt like crap, I figured it was because I hadn’t slept in a while. Figures, I thought, whenever anything remotely bad happens I have to go and get sick and make things worse than they already are, I let out a silent sigh.

He was still in awe. He didn’t usually take time to see her like this. It had always been a race, he had never noticed how every muscle in her body was revealed as she moved. He had never quite noticed the delicate curve of her chest. Sure it had always been there but he had never studied her as he did now.

They had almost reached the truck when he noticed she was trembling. He reached forward and touched her shoulder.

“Oh, baby don’t,” He croaked softly, emotion getting caught in his throat.

She turned around to face him and he looked down into her bright green eyes. Oh how they captivated him. But now they just tore him up seeing all the hurt and pain of the last two days rushing out to meet him. He put his arms around her pulling her in to the deepest hug he deemed possible.

I couldn’t hold it in any longer. I clung to the back of his T-shirt and sobbed uncontrollably into his shoulder. I wanted to be strong about this and not appear weak, but it was too late for that. The past two days had scared me, a realization had hit. Keith could have any woman that he wanted, but he had chosen me. I sobbed harder and my knees gave out so only his loving arms were holding me up.

He sunk down to the ground and pulled her up onto his lap, cradling her in his arms. He buried his face in her hair and let the tears flow. He had come so close to loosing her.

I cried until I couldn’t cry any more. I looked up at his tear stained face.

“I can’t loose you,” I said between sobs.

“You never will baby.” He replied, tucking her damp hair behind her ear and brushing a few tears from her face with his thumbs. “You never will”
