"hey Bailey" Cassidy said coming down the stairs, into the kitchen.

'Hey, Cas. What's up?" Bailey asked serving the stack of pancakes to the dinning table.

"Nothing I was just wondering, how was your early childhood like?" Cassidy asked, now sitting at the table.

"Why do 'ya wanna know?" Bailey asked curiously.

"Just curious, that's all" Cassidy said.

"Alright what do 'ya wanna know?" Bailey asked sitting next to the nine-year-old.

"Well did you grow up in a ranch, in the city?"

"I grew up here in Texas in a ranch, with me and my dad-"Bailey started.

"Did you ever ride a horse?" Cassidy asked.

"No, actually no. Always wanted to learn but never got the chance" Bailey shrugged. Cassidy's face lit up as if she just won the lottery.

"ok, that's all I need. Thanks, bye" Cassidy said running back upstairs leaving her breakfast and a confused Bailey downstairs.

"Wait, you didn't hear my story on my drunk bus driver!" Bailey called out.

"Kids these days" Bailey said laughing off the questions that invaded her mind.

"What did she say?" Dylan asked excitedly after Cassidy shut the door to her bedroom.

"She said what we needed. She doesn't know how to ride a horse" Cassidy said smiling.

"My plans working perfectly" Dylan said in a sappy voice.

"Big ego much" Chloe commented from the windowsill.

"Yeah, this is our plan. Meaning all of us" Tuck said.

"Plus, it's only half done. Now we need to get dad involved" Brody said.

"Don't worry, that's what I'm here for" Tuck said. Rising his ego.

"Boys" Chloe said rolling her eyes.

"Hey daddy" Tuck said, walking into the barn.

"Hey Tuck, what you doing here?" Beau said unloading a bail of hay into My Girls stable.

"Well I was coming here to talk to you" Tuck said.

"Yeah, what about?" Beau asked.

"Well all I know, and im serious all I know, is that a message came for you" Beau said.

"Tuck you're 17, you're going to have to be a little more convincing if you think I'm falling for your tricks" Beau said seriously.

"I'm serious daddy, a note showed up for you saying to be in clean clothes here in the barn at 6 o'clock tonight" Tuck explained grabbing a note from his front pocket and handing it to his father.

Beau looked at the note and back at Tuck a few times before putting the note into his pocket.

"I'm serious, all of us are busy tonight anyway, Brody's got music, Dylan has a study group, Cassidy going out with friends and Bailey's taking Chloe to her play rehearsal. None of us have set this up" Tuck said.

"What are you doing?" Beau asked with a sly smile on his face.

"I'm going out tonight, at 2, so more like the whole day and night." Tuck said confidently.

"It's already 1:30, don't you think you should be getting ready?" Beau said.

"It's one thirty already, okay well I'm going to get ready and you tell me what the note was about when I get back" Tuck said walking out of the barn.

"I never said I was going Tuck" Beau said shouting out to his son.

But he still took the note out of his pocket again, the handwriting wasn't anyone he knew of, not even Summer. And Tuck had a point everyone was busy even Bailey had said that this morning.

Putting away the note again Beau pushing the thoughts out of his head, but maybe he would come to the barn at three this afternoon, just to see what this was about…

A little while later

"Brody!?" Beau called out

"Yeah, daddy?" Brody answered coming down the stairs into the living room.

"When's your music lesson staring?" Beau asked putting his brown sheep skin jacket on.

"Soon, I'll be leaving in 10, why?" Brody asked.

"I'm just going out, I won't be long. So do you have a way to get there?" Beau asked.

"Yeah, my friend josh can drop me off. We've got the same class" Brody quickly lied.

"Okay, see you tonight son" Beau said before walking out the door.

Brody waited for his dads truck to leave the driveway before dashing upstairs. He opened Cassidy's door and shut it quickly. Turning around he saw her climbing back in through her window.

"Thanks for the warning Bean Pole" Cassidy said finally getting in the house and shutting her window.

"Sorry I didn't know he was leaving" Brody apologized.

"Why is daddy's car leaving the driveway?" Tuck said suddenly walking into Cassidy's room.

"Well how about we ask Brody" Cassidy said annoyed.

"He said he was quickly going out" Brody said his voice cracking a little from the pressure of his siblings.

"But he's supposed to be at the barn at one, and it's already 12:15" Cassidy said.

"Oi why y'all arguing in here, and where's dad?" Dylan said walking into the argument.

"Brody let dad walk out, and now he may not be at the barn in time" Cassidy said rolling her eyes and Dylan's comment.

"Well Bailey isn't back yet either" Dylan noted.

"Yeah, why aren't arguing about that, Chloe supposed to get her to come back after dropping her off to Myah's house for a sleepover." Brody explained a grudge in his voice.

"Will y'all chill" A voice said from the bedroom.

"Who was that?" Tuck asked.

"Sounded like Chloe" Dylan said. As Brody went to open the wardrobe door.

"Cause it is me" Chloe said sassily from the ground of Cassidy's built-in robe.

"What are you doing there Chloe?" Cassidy asked her face puzzled looking.

"Well I had to find some hiding spot before Bailey arrived, didn't i?" Chloe explained getting out of the closet.

"Where's Bailey?" Dylan asked his little sister.

"Chill bro, she's coming back from dropping me off at "Myah's" Chloe said patting Dylan on the shoulder.

"I didn't even know you had a friend called Myah" Tuck exclaimed.

"I don't, made her up so that Bailey could drop me off Infront of old Janise's house. It was right next to the new bus station so once she left, I waited for the bus, and took it farmer Lances house before borrowing his old bicycle to ride here to our ranch." Chloe explained to her now stunned siblings.

"You did all of that in the time it's taking Bailey to get here?!" Dylan said shocked.

"more like why she did the stuff she did to get here?" Brody said over Dylan.

"Would y'all calm down, every one of us had a cover story, but I'm six I can't make my own way with Bailey and dad agreeing." Chloe said dumping herself down into Cassidy's bean bag.

"Okay moving on, Chloe how far is Bailey" Cassidy asked.

"Probably any second now, so we should probably hide" Chloe said straight faced looking up at her siblings.

Tuck, Brody, Dylan and Cassidy all looked at each other before bolting downstairs to the back yard, with Chloe following slower.

All five of them went to the barn, which they had all done up nicely earlier to their secret spying spots.

They all wanted to at least be able to view what was going on even if they couldn't hear very well.

Deciding to hide in the old treehouse they climbed into the small fairly stable wooden hut and waited for the clock to hit three.

Bailey soon pulled in to the ranch after dropping Chloe off at her friends house for a sleepover, she had to admit the house didn't seem like children lived there, but Chloe had said it was the house so Bailey watched her walk over before saying goodbye.

Pulling in next to Beau's car Bailey headed inside to her room, quickly getting changed in denim jeans, a black flowy shirt and her favourite flats before heading out skeptically to the barn.

This morning she had found a note with unrecognizable handwriting saying for her to dress nicely and meet at the barn at 3'oclock tonight.

Bailey had first thought it was the kids playing tricks on her, but they all had plans and Bailey didn't see Beau as the one to be this secretive.

Overall, Bailey had still decided to go, just to see what it was about mainly.

Walking in to the barn Bailey saw that it had been nicely done up fairy lights with a golden glow were hung along the walls, with flowers decorating walls, barrels and petals on the floor.

The hay had been swept away and the flooring almost reflected the soon setting sun.

Shocking her she wondered who had done this and why?

But just as she was walking in, another man was too. Beau had gotten into nice clothes too checked long tee, jeans, cowboy boots and his denim jacket.

They both caught each others eye, seeing each other there.

"You did this!?" They both asked in unison both equally shocked.

"I didn't write the note" Beau said first.

"Me neither" Bailey replied.

"So who did this?" Beau said a laugh in his voice, half blown away by the beauty he was noticing in the his kids nanny.

"I don't know, you don't think the kids could have done it do you?" Bailley asked.

"there clever" Beau said shrugging his shoulders.

After breaking the ice both adults had noticed a barrel in the centre side of the barn, it had been done up with two candles a couple purple flowers and a decorated card, with a note on it.

Bailey and Beau both walked up to it, with Beau, reading the note aloud.

Thanks for both accepting the invitation.

If you follow the petals into the next room you'll see what we've set up.

Have fun.

Beau read out.

"we gonna follow the notes?" Bailey asked after a while of silence.

"I guess, if your comfortable with it" Beau answered, wanting to make sure that he wasn't going to pressure the young nanny into a crazy act.

Bailey nodded before the two followed each other into the connecting room of the barn following a steam of petals.

As they entered the room they saw tow horses with all their tack on lying down comfortably on the hay. A note similar to all the past ones read

Enjoy riding.

Without any signature.

All Bailey could feel after reading the note was a pit in her stomach.

A/N: Sorry that i had to split this chapter into two, together it would have just been to big. But part two is already posted so enjoy.

Please R&R.
