Summery: Luke's thoughts while Daisy and him start out to search for Bo in My Son Bo Hogg
If Only
Luke listened to Uncle Jesse talking on the phone, trying to reach somebody at the sherrif's office with a sinking feeling. When Jesse hung up the phone, unable to reach Rosco or Cletus, Luke called to Daisy to come on and ran for the General. They would just have to find Bo themselves. But where should they start looking?
"You sure you don't want to go boar hunting with me Luke?" Bo's words echoed in his head. Constantly repeating and Luke couldn't help wondering if Bo would even be missing if he had just gone with him. What if something had happened to Bo? What if he was hurt or worse? How was he going to go on? Luke didn't think he would ever forgive himself if anything happened to Bo and he could have stopped it. If only he had gone with Bo instead of being selfish. They usually went hunting together, but Betty Rogers had finally agreed to go out with him. And now because he was thinking about some girl, Bo was missing, maybe laying out there hurt or even, no he wouldn't think that.
Sitting on the hood of the General, Luke fought back the tears, watching the road carefully. Praying he would find some sign of Bo or a clue about where he was, what had happened to him. 'Please God, please let us find him. Let him be okay, don't make him pay for my mistake. I'm sorry I didn't go with him, if only I had, I'm sure we would be up in Greenriver getting ready to go hunting. Please God if only you let him be okay, let us find him and I promise to never take him for granted again. Amen'
As they kept driving, Daisy moving as slow as possible and Luke scanning the roadway, he was finding it very hard not to give up hope. Just as he was about to tell Daisy they should maybe head to Tri-County and see if Bo was there, a yellow car pulled up beside them and a familiar blond head appeared in the window. "BO!"
The End.
I know it is kind of a weird place to stop, but this was only meant to cover until they found out Bo was alive. I always wondered what Luke might be thinking and if he felt guilty while they were searching for Bo. This is my first story every, please tell me what you think of it.
