So this is my next chapter. The second one I'm working on here at my grandparent's. In a few days I'm going with a couple of my aunts, my cousin, my mom and my cousin's daughter to a big flea market called Shipshewana (If that's even how you spell it). But its north of Fort Wayne, Indiana. It's close to an Amish community, so you'll see quite a few Amish people and see horse and buggies. It's really cool to go to. I also like that I get to spend time with my family that I don't normally see.
I don't own Dukes of Hazzard but I wish it was all real.
Luke and I are at the garage. I'm working and Luke decided to help me. Cooter is out saving Enos from Hazzard Pond, courtesy of Bo who is leaving to head to Florida for a week to help some of his racing friends. As I'm working, I hear a car pull up and it is Rosco. He parks outside and gets out with Flash. I wipe my hands off and pet Flash when she trots over to me.
"Hey girl." I say to her. As I pet her, I realize something is up with her. Something was different and I just couldn't figure it out.
"Where've ya been Rosco? I haven't seen ya all mornin'." Luke says.
"I was at the vet with Flash." He says.
I pick her up and hold her. "Is she okay?"
"Yah, she's fine, but …." He looks at the ground like he's embarrassed.
"But what Rosco?" Luke asks for us both.
"Well…."
"Is it something life threatening Rosco?" I ask as I keep petting her in my arms.
"No… No. She's just… pregnant."
I look at Luke, then to Flash and lastly to Rosco. "Really?"
He nods yes to us. "But I don't know how she could. She hasn't been around a dog like that."
I suddenly flash back to a few weeks ago when he and Flash was over at the farm and Judd had just arrived with Chester. I then remember that I found Flash coming out of the barn and then a little later, saw Chester walk out. Then the thought I had then popped into my head.
"Ah Rosco?" I say leery.
"Huh?"
"Well… I… uh… think I know whose dog got Flash pregnant."
"Who's?" He asks with a little anger in his voice.
I look at Flash and keep looking at her. "Mine."
"Jit, jit. What do ya mean?"
I look up as I tell him why. "Well remember when ya came over to the farm that one day and you you-know-what with us." I say being nice not to say aloud that he ate on duty. "Well I found Flash comin' out of the barn and soon after you left, Chester walked out too. So I guess that they must have… you know."
Rosco says nothing. I look at Luke and he's holding back from laughing. He walks over to Rosco and around him to put his left hand on his shoulder. "I guess ya two can call each other in-laws now."
I hold in a little snicker. What Luke said was a little funny to think. Rosco was getting a little red in the face but I knew it was anger. "Just think Rosco. They're goin' to be quite normal. Bloodhounds and Basset Hounds are quite alike. So I think they're goin' to look quite cute."
His face starts turning a little normal after I finish saying what I say. Luke then chimes in. "Just remember Rosco, this is a way of life. It's normal. The only way to prevent it is to either get Flash fixed or keep her completely away from any dogs when she's in the mood for kids. Which if I'm right, it's only two times a year she gets the chance to have kids."
What Luke said was very true. And Rosco knew that. His face was back to its normal color. He still didn't look happy, so I put Flash back on the ground and they both go back to the patrol car and leave. Once he's gone, Luke and I look at each other and start laughing. We had to get our laughter out that we held in. No one would have ever thought this would happen. But if it was a dog that the Dukes owned, Rosco would have flipped his lid and they would be more on Rosco's bad side.
"It's Bo." Grandma says. We were all at the farm and it's been a few days since Bo left town.
Grandma talks to him a little bit and asks who wants to talk to him next. "I will." I say as I reach for the phone. "Hey Bo."
"How ya doin' Clara?" Bo asks.
"I'm doin' good. How are ya doin' down there?" I ask.
"Pretty good. I miss bein' around ya guys but I'm havin' a good time."
"Well that's good. But ya missed somethin' funny that happened right after ya left."
"What might that be?"
I get a huge smile on my face as I get ready to tell him. "Well Flash is pregnant."
"Really?"
"Yep. And guess whose dog is the father."
"Who's?"
"Mine." Suddenly Bo bursts out laughing.
"Really?" He asks between laughs.
I start laughing myself because of him laughing. "Yah. It's the only logical dog that Flash was around." I then explain to him what I did Rosco a few days ago about how I say both of them walk out of the barn.
"I can't believe it."
"Yah. Luke even said that we can call each other in-laws now."
He starts laughing even more. "I guess ya can. I can't believe I missed all that."
"No one would have known and like I said, I just let the thought pass me when I say Chester walk out of the barn."
"Man that's funny. I can't wait to see what those puppies look like."
"They'll look a lot like them both since BloodHounds and Basset Hounds are so much alike."
"Yah. I'll admit though, they will look cute."
I chuckle a little at that. Bo can have a sweet side. "Can I talk to him?" Daisy asks me.
"Sure." I tell her. "Daisy would like to talk to ya Bo." I tell him.
"Alright. I'll talk to ya soon."
"Okay. Bye." I hand the phone to Daisy and step aside.
It was nice to know that he thought it was funny 'cause everyone else thought the same. Rosco may not like it but I think that it's going to be sweet having little puppies around.
My second chapter done while up here. The date is August 4th. A pretty good record for getting chapters done. I guess without internet up here, I can get more stuff done. Tonight I get to see 3 of my little cousins. Oldest 4, then 3, and lastly almost 4 months. The thing I like about coming up here is that I get to see all my family on my mom's side since we live hours away.
Well, review please.
