Author's Note: This is Bo and Luke's life together, from the first year Bo was with them, until when Luke leaves for the Marines, and one year after he gets back. It is all different events, but they all begin with more or less the same phrase. I thought it might be fun to tell their lives together by something that keeps happening. This follows on the same line as 'It's Cold,' and some of the events are even similar with the ages. There is also an Easter egg in there, if you can spot the movie line from the newest Dukes of Hazzard Movie...

I'm Hungry, Part Two

"Luke, I'm hungry. Can we go back now?" Five year old Bo asked his older cousin. Luke had gone exploring in the forest around the farm, and Bo had thought it seemed funny, but now he was hungry and would rather go back.

"I don't wanna go back yet. Ya wanted to come along, so I say when we go back."

"But I'm hungry." Bo pouted.

"I'm not going back anyway." Luke insisted.

"Please can we go back?"

"No."

"Please."

"No."

"Please Luke."

"No, Bo. No."

"Please."

"Be quiet."

"Please can we go back."

Luke glared at him, something Bo seemed obvious to. The point was that Bo would continue his complaining until they did go back, and that would ruin his exploring tour for certain. "Okay, okay." He gave in. He could take Bo back, and then leave again while he was eating.

"Luke, I'm hungry." Six year old Bo complained to his cousin.

"Ya should've eaten something before we left." Luke didn't even bother to look at him.

"I did, and I'm still hungry." Bo objected.

"Well, we're about ten minutes from the farm." At least they weren't too far away Luke though.

"How far is that?" Bo wanted to know.

"Long enough for you to complain the ears off me?" Luke stated a bit annoyed.

"Not far then." Bo shone up brightly, knowing his cousin never seemed to think it took long for him to do that.

"Bo, be quiet."

"Are we already there?" Bo asked, thinking he might have succeeded already.

"No." Luke groaned inwards, it would be ten long minutes.

Luke shot up from the couch where he had been sitting reading as he heard a crash in the kitchen. He ran in there and saw his seven year old cousin sitting square on the floor, an overturned chair beside him, and a surprised expression on his face.

"Bo?" Luke asked in a tone that was so much like they Uncle's that Bo looked at him in surprise. He hadn't known his cousin could do that.

"I'm hungry, but I couldn't reach the bread." Bo pointed to the bread that was lying on top of the refrigerator, still sitting on the floor.

Luke still had him fixed with a questioning look.

"I just wanted a bit bread." Bo went on. "But I couldn't reach it, I thought if I stood on the chair I could, but it was too far away, and I had to stretch really far to reach it." He looked at the bread still out of reach, and on the chair beside him. Then he slowly climbed to his feet, rubbing his sore behind.

"So ya thought ya should go tearing down the house." Luke sighed as Bo righted the chair again. Still rubbing at his behind, well, judging by the crash, he had gone down hard.

"No, are ya gonna laugh at me, or are ya gonna help me?" Bo wanted to know.

Luke sighed and easily reached up to get the bread and hand it to Bo.

"Luke, I'm really hungry." Eight year old Bo stated with all the seriousness he could muster.

"Well, there's nothing that I can do about it." Luke told him. "So it ain't no use for ya to go an' complaining about it."

"I know that." Bo nodded slowly.

Luke looked at him. "Then why do ya tell me if ya know there ain't nothing I can do about it all."

"Well," Bo bit his lower lip. "I just though that I should tell ya, make sure ya knew. Cause I'm really starving."

Luke shook his head smiling. That was so typical of Bo, just so typical.

"I'm hungry Luke." Bo said from his seat on the radiator. He was holding a few wrenches and other tools in his now oil stained hands. At nine he didn't have the strength to manage the bolts and all, but Cooter had put him on the radiator to hold the tools while he and Luke worked on the cars. Bo was quickly learning a lot about how to fix cars.

The three boys were in town, and Luke and Cooter were tinkering with the car that had started stalling.

Luke looked up at him, Bo had long since grown out of being a whiney and cranky kid, and he helped out where he could. He really wasn't that bad to have around.

Cooter looked up as well, grinning at the younger boy whom he saw a bit like a little brother as well. Something that made him enjoy teaching him all kinds of different things. Though Jesse had very firmly stated that there were some things that they were not allowed to teach him for a few years yet. Oh well, they had time.

"Here, Bo." Cooter dug out a few odd coins of change out of his pocket. "Why don't ya run and get us a dozen of them doughnuts from the bakery. Think we could all use a little something."

"Okay." Bo took the coins, jumped down from his seat and put down the tools before he took of running at top speed.

"Don't run back." Cooter called after him. "Don't want to get them flat." He grinned at the though of flat doughnuts, which they would get if Bo tripped with the box. In just a few moments though the boy returned breathless, and with all the doughnuts intact.
