I'll Be Your Fantasy
"Jake, if I'm not suppose to be riding, then how are we gonna be cutting when dad will see us clearly on the range?" I asked as I mounted Chocolate Chip, Witch's brother.
Only Chip was nicer than his sister and his color stood for his name. he was a dark chocolate chestnut shade.
"we're not going to be cutting cows today brat. We're cuttin' goats." he stated, trotting off towards Aspen Creek behind Three Ponies Ranch.
I sent Chip after his sister and followed Jake through a stand of cottonwood trees before we came out to a meadow, filled with goats.
"are you kidding me?" I asked in a dull tone.
Jake just shook his head. I smirked and sent Chip towards the goats, walking calmly through the group of about 14 of them. When I cut a big white one out, Chip knew what to do, and all I had to do was sit back and lean with the Quarter Horse.
"alright brat lets call it a day!" came Jake's voice after about an hour of cutting.
I stopped and reluctantly walked chip back to Jake and Witch.
"Wyatt will think we're up to something if I only told him I was takin' you to Clara's for lunch."
We headed back to Jake's place.
"you did good today brat." Jake told me.
"thanks." I said silently.
I snuck a look at Jake and watched as he rode in a proud way. His shirt cuffs were rolled up to his elbows and his forearms were dark and muscular. I wonder what he looks like with his shirt off. I thought, then my eyes went wide and my hand flew over my mouth.
Jake gave me a weird look before trotting on. Was I just fantasizing about Jake? Was all I could think about the whole rest of the day. I also continued to check out his arms and shoulders.
When Jake was taking me home, I couldn't look at him, for fear he could read my mind like he usually does. Then he looked at me, and I tensed up.
"what's wrong brat?"
"nothing Jake." I stated, crossing my arms.
"got a weird feelin' about ya?"
I just nodded and watched the highway go by as Jake turned onto the bridge crossing the La Charla river. Jake stopped the truck up by the house.
"I'll see you in the morning' I guess when I bring Witch over before I leave with Mom." Jake said as i got out of the truck.
"bye Jake." i said, blushing at just saying his name.
There was seriously something wrong with me today. Samantha Anne, you are going to get in trouble if you keep having those thoughts.
