Ty stirred as he felt a soft touch stroke his cheek. He slowly opened his eyes. "Hey," said Ty with a smile. "Hey sleepy head." "Well this is the best alarm clock ever." Amy laughed. "Are you okay?" asked Amy with concern in her voice. Ty rubbed his eyes. "Yeah. Why?" asked Ty groggily. "Well it's almost 2 in the afternoon." "What?" Ty looked at his phone and realized how much of the day he had wasted. "I guess I overslept," said Ty as he put his phone down. He rubbed his head as he felt the after effects of last night. "You guess?" asked Amy with a laugh. "It was a long night." "I can tell." Amy handed Ty a glass of water. "Thanks," said Ty as he sat up. "No problem." "Where's Jamie?" asked Ty. "He's at Heartland." "Really?" "Yeah. I think he took Grandpa up on those lessons." "Wow. Maybe having a guy's night actually worked." "Maybe. Plus we finally had a conversation." "Seriously?" Amy nodded. "Yeah. He told me something actually," said Amy. "Yeah?" "Yeah. He told me that the reason he was so upset was because he thinks you left him."
"Okay Ty. We found a place for you. It's part of a program at this ranch near Hudson," said Clint, Ty's probation officer. Ty growled. "A ranch? That sounds awful." "Oh I'm sure you'll have a great time," said Clint. "Doubt it." "Well you're stuck with it. You should feel lucky. The person who runs the program, Marion I believe, she had a lot of kids to choose from. But she picked you. She said she had a good feeling about you." Ty rolled his eyes. "Whatever." Clint shuffled through some papers. "Here is the address for the ranch…uh I think it's called Heart…Heartland. Yeah." Ty took the address from Clint. "I'll be calling the ranch to make sure you get there. And then I'll be doing regular checkups until your probation period is over." Ty nodded. "Hey. Um. About that request…" "Oh yeah. I talked to your aunt and she said he's doing great. Everything's going well in school and he's making a ton of friends." Clint opened his drawer and pulled out a note. "She gave me this. It's from Jamie." Ty took the note and read it in his head. "Ty, I want you to know that I am happy and that I don't blame you for anything. I just want you to live your life." Ty put the note in his jacket pocket. "It sounds like he's doing fine. I guess I was worried about nothing."
Ty pulled on a fresh pair of jeans and a clean t-shirt. Amy laughed as she watched Ty pull the shirt over his head. "What?" She got up and walked over to Ty. "Your hair," said Amy with a giggle. Ty looked in the mirror and smiled. "Here let me fix it." She gently combed through Ty's hair. "Thanks." Amy nodded. "Ty, what was he talking about?" Ty looked at Amy. "I really don't know." Amy put the comb down. "Well did you leave him?" Ty sighed. "I didn't think I did." "What do you mean?" Ty went over to his bed and pulled out a box from underneath it. Amy watched as Ty opened the box and dug through it. He walked back over to Amy and handed her a note. "That's a note that Clint gave me right before I came to Heartland. It was from Jamie." As Amy read the note Ty explained everything to Amy from when Jamie's mom came to visit him in juvi to when Clint gave Ty the note from Jamie. "After I read the note. I just assumed he was doing fine so I didn't think I had to go see him. He sounded happy. So I didn't go back and I didn't call. I thought that's what he wanted." Amy put the note down. "I think you should talk to Jamie about this. Clear the air." "I know. I'm going to talk to him, but it's just so hard." "Yeah but he seems to be doing better. And spending time with Grandpa should help to. It worked with you." Ty smiled. "I think that had more to do with all the time I was spending with you." "Oh so you're saying Jamie needs his own Amy. Huh?" "Oh no I think one Amy is enough for this world." "Hey!" exclaimed Amy as she playfully punched Ty. Ty laughed as he leaned in for a kiss.
"So are you all set?" asked Clint. "Yeah. I guess I'm off to what is it …horseland?" responded Ty. "It's Heartland." "Yeah. Whatever," said Ty with a sigh as he picked up his bag. "Ty, look at it this way. This is a new beginning for you. And there's magic in beginnings. You never know what's going to happen."
Ty's phone vibrated on the table. "Amy can you read the text to me?" asked Ty as he heated up some pasta in the microwave. "Yeah." Amy reached over to grab Ty's phone. "Hey Ty, you better not be to hungover to take my shift today. Thanks again for covering for me," said Amy as she read the text aloud. "It's from Cass." "Yeah I actually have to go Amy. I promised Cass I would switch shifts with her." "Okay," said Amy with a sigh. Ty looked at Amy. "What's wrong?" Amy looked down. "Nothing." "Amy" "It's just…that night before Jamie got here I came over to help you feel better and she ended up helping you instead." Ty laughed. "Are you serious Amy?" Amy nodded. Ty pulled Amy closer to him. "Amy, you help me every day. Just by being here." Amy smiled as she leaned in for a kiss. They parted when they heard the door to the trailer opening. "Hey guys," said Jamie as he entered the trailer. "Hey Jamie," responded Ty. "You're finally awake." "Yeah. Last night was pretty crazy." "Yeah but fun." Ty nodded with a smile. "How did your lessons with Grandpa go?" asked Amy. "Pretty good. Riding was awesome." Amy smiled. "Which horse did you ride?" asked Amy. "Well I actually rode Harley." Ty laughed. "He's an awesome horse." "Yeah he's beautiful." Ty nodded. "Okay. I have to go for my shift." "Okay. Hey um maybe we could have dinner tonight. I can cook," said Jamie. "You know how to cook?" asked Ty. "Yeah. It's kind of a hobby," said Jamie. "Wow. Okay well I'm looking forward to trying it." "Cool. Amy you wanna join us?" asked Jamie. Ty and Amy glanced at each other and smiled. "Um you know I would love to but I already promised Lou I'd be home for dinner. Maybe next time." "Okay," said Jamie with a smile.
