Sake Fluff

We were slowly riding over the hills, my arms around his muscular torso, my head on his shoulder. He was sitting in front of me on Witch. The sun was starting to set, going behind the dark clouds. We were on the way home from a two day cattle drive where I had ridden Ace, but he had to ride home in the trailer because his fetlock was sore..

We were about five miles from home, and it was starting to rain. Very lightly at first, but within a few minutes, there was a very strong downpour. No thunder or lightning, just rain. After a few minutes, once we were soaked, he turned around and looked at me. Really looked at me. To the point where I thought he was going to kiss me.

He looked me directly in the eye and said, "You look even prettier with your hair wet."

My face turned red, and he just laughed and turned around. It was then that I knew I was in love with him. I laid my head back on his shoulder and closed my eyes. He turned his head and kissed me on the nose. I tightened my arms around his waist, and we rode the rest of the way home in silence.
