No one quite realizes what reviews do to me, so I'll tell you! They empower me to write faster and make a chapter more interesting! I love reading them, and what you think. So thank you to everyone who reviewed.

So since there's no new episode today on CBC, I'm uploading instead! But first, review responses.

Alex chapter 3 . Oct 24

Interesting story i can't wait for you to expand it further...how are you liking season 11 so far?

My response

I am so sorry I never responded to this before now! I totally didn't see it, as it's one of my first reviews. Thanks so much, and I hope "Alex" has returned and seen where I've taken the story.

About Season 11...I'm loving it! Not my favourite season, (my favourite's season 9) but it's my second favourite! Plus, the Georgie/Wyatt story line has me hooked! So yes, I'm liking season 11!

Guest chapter 6 . Nov 23

Such a great chapter. It was cute seeing Lily act out. We finally have Georgie. Not in a way I excepted I have to admit. At least from the teaser in chapter 1. Anyway, I have a feeling Georgie suffered a miscarriage at least by the little hint Lily gave us.
Also thanks for the personalized response to my review for your last chapter. I've had the same thing happen with my fanfic I wrote for 10x09. So I guess you could call me a bit of a mindreader. lol

My response

Thanks so much, and yes, no everyone is perfect! Lily proves that. And Georgie, what fun was it without her? I'm glad I gave a few surprises! You'll see a new side of Georgie in this story, opposed to how she acts in CBC's TV show. Trust me, it's waaay different.

And about Georgie, all I can say is that she's really heartbroken about what happens. Chapter 7 explains it all, which has been uploaded already. SO go check it out!

Guest chapter 7 . Nov 23

Your hint at the end of chapter 5 said a mysterious truck comes to Heartland.

My response

Oh yeah...that was Georgie. Sorry, I forgot. It's hard to remember the little details, when I have a bigger story line to think about. Sorry I forgot! Thanks for reading though!

SpartanAmyMiracleGirl10 chapter 8 . Nov 25

I just love your story here and now Wyatt has mind his own business for Georgie sake.

My response

Oh you wait, there's more to that! Glad you love it!

Hope this clears a few things up about how Georgie is coping. Enjoy, and don't forget to review!

Chapter 9 - I Still Love Him

The next morning, Rhett's car pulled into the driveway at ten o'clock sharp. Lyndy was sitting on the porch, backpack at her feet, ready for a fun weekend after the somewhat silent week. She hadn't come up with any ideas to help Wyatt, other than talk to him, and was losing hope. Maybe a weekend of not thinking about it would give her ideas.

"Hey Lyndy!" Rhett jumped out of the car and so did his mom, Maya. "You excited?"

Lyndy mustered a smile. "You bet!"

Ty and Amy came out of the house at that moment too. "Thanks so much for taking Lyndy with you this weekend! She's been really looking forward to it and deserves a break from all our craziness." Ty laughed and Maya joined in.

"I'm so glad. Rhett's been counting the days as well. So we'll have her home no later than dinner tomorrow, is that okay?" Maya asked.

"Sounds great! Lyndy's got some money in her bag, we searched up the price of the science exhibition tickets, they're not cheap!" Amy said, walking over to her daughter.

"Oh it's our treat!"? Maya put up a hand to stop Amy from speaking. "I won't have it any other way. Actually, we paid a much less price, and Lyndy's ticket was free. My husband got a deal through his work." She explained.

"Well thank you. Lyndy honey, maybe you can treat them to lunch or something?" Amy told her daughter.

"Now that's a nice idea." Maya smiled at Lyndy. "We should get going, Rhett why don't you help Lyndy with her bag?"

Rhett held out his hand. "Can I take your backpack for you?"

Lyndy handed it over. "Thanks."

Amy turned to face her daughter. "Have fun sweetheart! Don't forget to use your manners, although we know you will. And don't worry about Wyatt and Georgie, things will work out." She hugged Lyndy, and then it was Ty's turn.

"I will Mom, don't worry." Lyndy was starting to get excited for the weekend. She loved science and hanging out with Rhett was even better.

Lyndy waved over her shoulder as she and Rhett ran towards the car. Amy could see her and Rhett's dad Josh, exchange a few words before jumping into the backseat. A final wave, then the door closed.

Maya was still standing with Amy and Ty. "Georgie? The name sounds familiar, it she perhaps a show jumper?"

Amy looked quickly at Ty. "Georgie's an Olympic show jumper, yes. She's also my niece."

"Really? Lucky you! Our family watched her compete in a few competitions; she's stunning to watch. And that horse; he has beautiful strides. If she's competing while she's here, I'd loved to go see her. And Wyatt, that sounds like the name of her husband. Whenever she won a competition, she'd always thank him and the camera would show his smiling face. Actually, I haven't seen them in any shows recently." Maya smiled and Ty and Amy tried to smile back. Little did Maya know, Georgie was far from competing again. And what she said about Wyatt then, would probably be very different from what she would say now.

A honk from Rhett's dad made Maya jolt out of whatever thought she was in. "I'll let you get back to whatever you were doing. Thanks for letting us borrow your daughter!" Maya turned and headed back to her car. Amy and Ty waved until the car was past the Heartland sign. Then they headed back into the house.

Georgie was sitting at the table sipping some orange juice when Ty and Amy entered the room. "Is Wyatt out there?" asked Georgie.

Ty shook his head. "No, I thought he was in here."

"He's not. I checked the bathroom, TJ's room and he's not there." Amy could see Georgie was worried. This worried Amy because something must have shifted, if Georgie was concerned about Wyatt for once. It was obvious that Wyatt cared a whole lot for Georgie, no matter what, but Georgie was more emotionally damaged and needed time before showing emotion towards anyone.

"Well he's around here somewhere. No one just disappears." Amy looked out the window and saw Lily playing with Rover, but Wyatt nowhere in sight.

Suddenly, there was a thud at the bottom of the loft stairs. "What's all the serious faces for?" Wyatt asked, looking at everyone crowded in the kitchen.

"There you are!" Georgie smiled at Wyatt, who frowned in return. "We didn't know where you were!"

"Well I was upstairs talking to TJ. If it were up to you, I'd probably be homeless on the streets from the way you talked to me three days ago. Or haven't talked to me the past few days." Wyatt was being difficult and he knew it. But he couldn't let Georgie switch from angry to relieved overnight, couldn't he?

Georgie refused to look up and studied the decorations on the tablecloth even more carefully. But it was Amy who looked up to speak instead. "Wyatt, I think you and Georgie need some space. Why don't you take TJ for a ride or something? You can always borrow Harley, who's in the third stall on the left. Ty, Lily's outside with Rover, maybe you can take her into town and get her new shoes. It's long overdue for her to have some nice sandals."

"Sounds good." Ty caught on immediately to what Amy was trying to do. She wanted a chance to talk to Georgie with no chance of anyone listening. And from the thankful look Georgie was giving her, it looked like Amy made the decision correctly.

"If you don't mind, can I take Lily into town? I need to get something." Wyatt looked sideways at Ty and Amy, who exchanged a glance. With those two, lots could be discussed using their eyes. "I grew up with Brick, I know what shoes are good for kids. Plus, it might be good practice, although I don't think so anymore." Wyatt couldn't help adding the last jab there.

"Sure, that's fine. Ty can take TJ out for a ride then." Amy said. "Lily just needs sandals, preferably ones that aren't dressy, and can be worn out for walks in town and to school. Also, easy to put on, and please don't let her come home with bright pink ones! Brown or toned gray or tan would be good. Something that can be worn with all colours. Got that?" Amy asked.

"Got it." Wyatt nodded. He grabbed his jacket and left the house without a backwards glance. Ty shrugged and headed out to the barn with TJ.

The second everyone was gone, Georgie broke into tears again. This wasn't new for Amy, so she just handed Georgie a tissue and patted her shoulder. "He'll take time too, just like you." Amy said.

"Yeah, but I always thought he knew that no matter what I'd still be the same as I was before. But I guess not." The last part was said with a bitter tone. Amy sighed. She knew there would be hard feelings on Wyatt side of things, but deep down Amy always hoped that Wyatt would be more accepting. Not that he didn't have any right to be upset too. She couldn't imagine what he went through, actually witnessing Georgie's terrible injury.

"Georgie, you do realize he's allowed to have hard feelings? No offense, but you weren't very kind earlier this week. Maybe he's upset too." Amy tried to soften the blow of the what she thought the reality was, but apparently it wasn't soft enough, as Georgie cried harder.

"Oh Amy, I know. I know I made a mistake by pushing him away. He was so supportive in the hospital and didn't get over emotional when we found out about the baby. Trust me, if someone's allowed to get mad, it's Wyatt. But I'm afraid I've pushed it too far. What if he thinks that everything I've said is purposeful?" Georgie looked at Amy through her tears.

"What do you mean?" Amy asked cautiously.

"Before I ran to Heartland, I told him that I didn't even know if I still loved him. I said it with regret and without thinking. I know he still remembers it and it's not like I can take it back. But the truth is, I do still love him. And I don't think I ever stopped, or ever can stop." Georgie wiped her eyes and looked up at Amy. "He's the best thing that ever happened to me. And how you stop loving that?"

Amy didn't know what to say. Just as she thought she knew the whole story of what went on between Georgie and Wyatt, something else came up that changed everything. She knew things were bad, but Amy didn't think they would ever get this bad. And she and Ty were stuck in the middle of it.

Please review, and new chapter will be up by next Sunday at the latest, which is also when we have the mid-season finale for those watching Heartland on CBC! Thanks again for all the other reviews!
