Chapter 1 Hello

Adam and Jack leaned against the fence after having just finished today's work. Sweat rolled down their backs as the hot sun beamed down on them fiercely. Jack brushed his dark black hair out of his eyes with the back of his hand and looked at the farm in front of them. He sighed and grinned and looked over at Adam who was also looking around.

"Adam." Jack said. Adam looked over at Jack and raised an eyebrow at Jack's foolish grin. "How about me and you hit the town tonight and visit Bonks?" He asked. "Come on it will be fun we haven't been to Bonks for at least... a week or so." He said.

"Sure, it would be nice to get out." Adam said.

"Hell yes it would!" Jack exclaimed.

Adam looked over at his slightly older friend. "What's got you in such a happy mood today?" Adam asked.

"Oh nothing, nothing." Jack said. "Ok you got me. Serena's coming in tonight and we are going to be spending some time together tonight." He said excitedly. Adam grinned. He knew how much Jack loved Serena, and how much he had been depressed when she left to help her sister through her divorce. "Her sister is coming too, I think her name is Judy. Yea that's it Judy, anyways she's bringing her two kids with her. They're all gonna be living in Serena's apartment." Jack explained, a frown settling over his face.

"You don't like her sister or her sisters kids or something?" Adam asked.

"Naw, her sister hates me. She's a little b-witch." He said changing his last word. "And her kids are little angels." Jack said. "Anyways let's go get cleaned up and hit the bar." He said and walked off with Adam following behind

(A little while later.)

Adam stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around his waist as he walked out of his bathroom and into his bedroom to his closet as he dried off his blonde hair. Afterwards he threw the towel toward his unmade bed in his white room. He quickly grabbed a pair of jeans and a white tee shirt. After that he brushed his wet hair out of his eyes, he grabbed his jacket and left his room to wait for Jack to get finished primping himself for Serena. Adam chuckled at the thought of Jack primping himself longer then Serena did.

'He would do anything for her that's for sure.' Adam thought, just as Jack walked over to the truck that Adam was leaning against.

"You driving or me?" Jack asked.

"Me." Adam said and climbed in the drivers seat of the red truck, as Jack climbed in the passenger seat. Once they were both in Adam started off toward the main town to have a nights out.

After twenty or so minutes of driving, Adam pulled into town and started off toward Bonks, a bar, which took about five minutes to get to. Jack and Adam walked toward the bar door and quickly walked in and was hit with the smell of smoke, beer, liquor, and loud music. Jack tugged at Adam's jacket his eyes twinkling like a child's on Christmas day.

"There she is, there she is!" He said pointing at Serena and rushing through the crowd to get to her. Adam laughed at his friend and followed him through the crowd. When Adam reached the happy couple, they were hugging and kissing each other happily.

"Adam hey." Serena said to her friend.

"Hey Serena." Adam said.

"You guys this is my sister, Judy." She said introducing them to a tall woman with high cheek bones.

"Hello." She said. The guys nodded through hello's. Adam chuckled at his friend, he was practically bouncing on his toes to get Serena alone.

"I'm going to go to the bar, get something to drink, you guys want anything?" Adam asked.

"No were good." Jack said.

"Yea besides we were just about to dance." Serena said and dragged Jack away from Adam and her sister who was talking to a man in his thirties. Adam chuckled again and walked over to the bar. He sat down on a stool and looked around while he waited for the bar tender, Tony, to get his order.

"Adam haven't seen you around lately." A man said.

"Hey Tony. Been busy is all." Adam shrugged.

"Well what can I get you?" Tony asked.

"Beer." Adam answered his attention caught on something else.

"Coming up." Tony said and quickly got a beer for Adam. He sat it in front of him and watched as he made no movement to get it. "Adam... Hello Adam." Tony said waving his hand in front of his face. Adam tore his attention away and looked at Tony.

"Thanks." He said. Tony only nodded and walked away sending a glance at the way Adam had been staring before. Once Tony was gone Adam took a swing of his beer and felt a presence beside of him. He glanced over and saw Judy with a scowl on her face.

"So who are you exactly?" Judy asked.

"Adam Thompson." Adam answered.

Judy shook her head. "So how long have you've known my sister? And how did you two meet?" She asked.

Adam raised an eyebrow. "About six months ago when Jack and her first came into town and Jack got a job at the ranch." He said.

"Oh." She said. "Well how interesting. So you work on a farm with Jack?" She asked sweetly. Adam glanced over at her and shrugged.

"Yea." He answered.

"So you must be pretty close to him. He must tell you a lot of things about him and Serena. Has he ever told you, you know that he took interest in another girl while she was away."

"No not actually. Jack loves Serena, he wouldn't do anything to hurt her." Adam said. "He's one of the most faithful guys you'll ever meet, and one of the best for your sister." Adam said slightly angry at how Judy could make such assumptions to try and break his two friends up. Adam got up from the bar and made his way toward the exit, so he could get some fresh air. On his way out his left side bump into someone, quite forcefully.

"Whoa, hey there cowboy, where's the fire?" A smooth soft amused female voice said to him.

Adam looked back at the person he had bumped into. "Sorry about that." Adam said to her.

"Don't worry about it." The girl said.

"I haven't seen you here before..." Adam started to say but found she had already walked off. Adam frowned and walked back over to the bar forgetting about needing fresh air. "Hey Tony." Adam called out. The middle aged man looked over at him and walked over to him.

"Whatcha need?" Tony asked.

"Who's that girl? The one over there at the end of the bar?" He asked.

"Her? I don't, she showed up the other night out of the blue. I haven't actually gotten to talk to her. I know she's not from Montana that's for sure." He said. Adam only nodded and walked over to the girl who was leaning against the bar and looking at the people dancing. When Adam leaned against the bar beside of her she glanced at him and smiled softly.

"Hey there cowboy." The girl said to him.

Adam chuckled at the nickname. "Hi." He said.

"So what's your name?" The girl asked.

"Adam, Adam Thompson." He replied.

The girl titled her head to the side and looked at him. "You don't look like an Adam." She said.

"Excuse me?" Adam asked.

The girl laughed softly. "Your name, it doesn't fit you. You know peoples names are supposed to fit them, and yours I dunno it just doesn't." She said.

"And I suppose your does?" He asked. He was comfortably around her, and he didn't even know her, it was a shock to him.

"Of course mine does." The girl said putting her hand to her chest to indicate herself, while showing off her bitten off nails that were painted black. "I'm Kellie, Kellie Landrick." The girl Kellie said.

"Well then Kellie if my name doesn't fit me then what does?" Adam asked.

"I dunno. Ryan maybe. Let me think on it and I'll get back to ya." Kellie answered. "Well see ya round cowboy." Kellie answered as she pushed herself off the bar.

"Where are you going?" Adam asked.

Kellie scrunched up her nose playfully. "See ya round Adam Thompson." She said and left the bar, without a backward glance. Adam watched her go and chuckled. 'I don't even know her I already feel completely at ease with her.' He thought to himself, as he turned back to talk to Tony.
