Prologue

Six months past since Jack and Ennis moved to Lightning Flats and started there own ranch called BBM Circle. No one knew what it meant but them. It stood for Brokeback Mountain Circle to remind them of where they met and how they always seemed to be going around in circles.

Chapter One

May 14th 1984

"Oh daddy I can't believe me and Kurt will be married in less than two hours. Is everything all ready?" Junior asked as she paced the guest room in her father's house.

"Don't worry darlin' Jack and Mrs. Twist has gotten everythin' under control. All ya need to do is relax."

"Ok, but I'm so nervous. Has mama showed yet? She's supposed to help me with my hair?" Junior was worried that Alma may not show up. She was upset that Junior wasn't gettin' married in a church and she threaten Junior by tellin' her she wasn't gonna go to the weddin' unless it was in a church. They had a big fight and Junior told her that it was fine with her. Ennis couldn't stand to see his little girl hurtin' so he called Alma and told her not to be that way, it was her daughter and she needed to be there for her. Alma agreed that Ennis was right and told him she would be there.

"Yer mama likely got stuck in traffic." Ennis said as he looked out the window. He was startin' to get a little nervous himself.

"Yeah, yer right daddy. Is Josiah Sanchez here yet? He's gonna perform the ceremony."

"Yes he is darlin', he's talkin' to Kurt now. Ya know he is the first priest I ever met that didn't act like one." Ennis had to laugh at that. Josiah was a friend of his old boss Chris Larabee and he wasn't yer ordinary preacher. Ennis liked the fact that Josiah wasn't afraid to tell you what he thought or the fact he didn't care about your personal life.

"She's here!" Junior said all excited as she looked out the window and saw her mama walkin' up to the door.

Jack answered the door.

"Hi Alma welcome to our home." Jack said as he stepped aside so she could enter.

"Thank you Jack, How are you?" She asked as she handed him her jacket.

"I'm great and you?"

"I'm fine. Can you please show me to where Junior is?"

"Up the stairs, and it's the first door on the right."

"Thanks." Alma said as she headed up the stairs.

"Well that went well." Jack said to himself as he went to hang up the jacket.

Although Alma had accepted Ennis for what he was she still had a hard time talking to Jack and she hated that about herself. She hoped in time she could. She had to get along with Jack as well as Ennis because the girls were starting to spend a lot of time with them and Alma would never get in the way of Ennis and the girls. She was glad that he was finally getting the chance to be the father she always knew he could be.

"Junior you look beautiful." Alma said as she walked into the room.

"Thanks mama."

"I'm gonna leave the two of you to finish gettin' ready. See ya in a bit." He kissed Junior on the cheek before he left.

Ennis was happy for Junior. Kurt Welling seemed like a good young man. He worked the oil fields so it was a good steady job which meant he could provide for Junior, and that's all Ennis wanted, his little girl to be happy and taken care of.

He went to find Jack to make sure he was ready because the wedding was startin' in 20 minutes and they both had to walk Junior down the aisle.
