Drew is the best. He rides like the pro he is, Sam tries to buck or spin him off, but this is someone who really knows what he is doing. Blaine and kurt were watching.

It is quite beautiful, the way he rides, his body arching in the rhythm of the bull, graceful and fast as it bucks and spins.

Blaine's watching, impressed and slightly jealous. Kurt squeals with excitement.

Concentrating on the ride, Sam is trying to buck him off. The crowd is etxcited by someone really good on the bull.

Attracted to him, He rides a lot better than Blaine. Kurt glances at his husband who is now not trying to hide his jealousy. As the ride ends and people applaud, drew gets off and moves to the table. He removes the glove, puts it down, picks up his beer and takes the money Sam offers him. He grins at kurt and then at Blaine and Blaine stared back at him.

"I want to ride it." Kurt still stated feeling pumped.

Before Blaine can refuse his, the music begins on the stage and Sam turns off the bull and gives an anousment.

"They're starting the set and, Gilley

don't want the bull goin' when he's

on the stage."

Drew grins at kurt and then looks at Blaine and Sam is nervous.

"You're a real cowboy, aren't you?

Best riding I've ever seen" Drew grins at kurts comment and Blaine takes his arm.

"Come on, let's go dance." Blaine then leads him away.

"Quit that flirting."

"I wasn't flirting." He defended

They move out onto the dance floor and Gilley is singing down at the other end. They start dancing and kurt is taking looks back over Blaine's shoulder at drew and Sam who are talking and smoking around the bull. They move around the dance floor in the Texas two-step.

Singing and dancing on the floor, kurt turns his head and looks off. Blaine looks to see what he was looking at.

looking at them, standing with Sam drew is talking at the edge of the dance floor dancing in the crowd.

It is packed. The waitresses are running their tails off. Kurt, Blaine and puck are seated at tables in the back. Blaine is up front buying some cigarettes and they are all pretty drunk. The place is noisy with the juke- box going.

Blaine leans across the counter and calls into the kitchen.

"Hey, sweetheart, have 'em put an

extra slice of onion on my burger and I want it extra well, now if that cow's still moving I'm sending it back." He smiled and moves on up to the table and sits down.

Blaine's at the table makeing a joke not noticing anyone entering to door.

"I just heard a good one, you know

how you get to be a cowboy? You

get yourself a handful of marbles and

you put them marbles in your mouth.

And every time you ride that bull you

spit one of them marbles, and by the

time you've lost all your marbles,

you're a cowboy."

Everyone laughed and heard puck curse staring staring ahead with an different emotion on his face "Shit."

Kurt looks Blaine turns and stares. Drew and Sam were moving into Granny's, looking for a table. They walk down into the back and take a seat at the counter. Blaine's studying him and drew seen kurt and tips his hat to him. Blaine stares in shock and looks at kurt.

"What the hell was that!? What's

he doin' tipping his hat at you? " letting anger get to him.

"Shhh, Blaine" The porcelain boy said not wanting to draw attention.

"Don't he know we're married?"

Blaine picks up kurt's hand and holds it up pointing to the wedding band. He makes signs at drew and talks, but drew certainly can't hear exactly what he's saying obviously ignoring the man.

"This is my man, see this wedding band!? We're married. See? Okay. Okay?" Drew turns away with Sam and talks to him as the waitress comes up to take their order.

kurt pulls his hand away. "Don't act so silly, Blaine."

But Blaine continued to yell at the man. "He belongs to me, alright!?"

"I don't belong to anybody, Blaine. Except myself."

Drew looks up at Bud and makes a gesture of all right with his middle finger.

Blaine's mouth fell open "Did you see that? Did he just give me the finger?."

"I didn't see it if he did." He lied hopeing Blaine not to get into a fight and kurt noticed and grabbed Blaine's arm.

"Calm down, Blaine."

The waitress moves up with plates of food balanced on her arm and her hair in wisps about her face. She is truly harrassed.

"Ham'n eggs, cheese omlette, and a burger with an extra slice of onion."

Opening up the burger "This old cow better not be moving." Blaine Looks up at drew who is now talking to Sam. He gave a small sigh and looked at kurt. "I think he gave me the finger."

"He didn't know we were married,

you're just jealous." He said and now putting ketchup on his cheese omlette and the waitress starts away.

"Wait a minute, honey, this thing's

still alive" Blaine stated not with a friendly tone.

The waitress exasperated, moving away "I can't help it."

Picking it up and throwing it at her

"Put it back on the fire!"

"Blaine!" Kurt hissed

The hamburger sails through the air, misses the waitress and lands on the side of drews' shirt. He looks over and

gets up anf so did Blaine.

There is a field of weeds on the side of Granny's. It was there so that the cowboys step out to fight. Blaine and drew face each other and Blaine swings at drew first. Drew is shirtless and steps out of the way. Blaine is very drunk, and he falls. Drew steps back and waits. Blaine gets to his feet and drew hits him, and Blaine falls again. Blaine is stunned. His nose is bleeding. Kurt gasps and runs over to him.

"Blaine!"

"Stay out of this!" Blaine gets up and swings and connects. Drew staggers back and drew becomes mad now. He moves forward and knocks the shit out of Bud who sits down hard.

"Okay! that's enough!" Sam cuts off.

Blaine gets up and starts for drew again. Drew starts for him, but they are separated. Kurt moves up to Blaine.

"No more! Blaine! Stop it! No more!"

Blaine pulls away, kicks the ground and stares at drew, he then heads for the truck. Kurt follows. Drew and Sam are left there with the others, talking about the fight.

Blaine gets into his truck with kurt getting in beside him. Blaine looks at him and turns on the motor. Music starts on radio. He backs out and pulls out onto the road. He sees drew, Sam and others out in front of Granny's. Blaine's truck then goes by too fast 90 miles an hour.

"Slow down, Blaine! You let me out

of here! You're gonna get us killed!"

Kurt looks out and a traffic light is turning red. Another car is coming.

"Blaine!"

Blaine throws on his brakes as he goes through the red light. As Blaine just missed other car and almost turns the truck over. It spins around as he fights to keep control of the wheel.

As Blaine manages to stop it. Kurt looks at him. He is bloody and drunk They sat very quiet.

The radio is on and kurt is making some instant coffee. He looks at the clock and calls to Blaine.

"Blaine? It's seven o'clock." He moves back and looks at him. His face is swollen, His lip big and Sick with a hangover.

"Are you going to work? Otherwise

I'll call you in sick-"

"Just bring me a beer."

"Blaine if they smell beer on your breath."

"Just Bring me a beer!"

Blaine moves out of the truck and he is putting a whole package of Clorets into his mouth.

"You sure now you're all right?" Kurt asked I'm concern.

"Yep. Don't forget, Waylon's at Gilley's tonight."

As Blaine gets into his truck and turns on the motor and the radio comes

on. He turns it down a bit. He looks at kurt and tries to grin, then pulls out carefully. Kurt watches him go, then moves back inside.

Kurt moves inside, picks up a phone book and dials a number. The radio is on, same as was on in Blaine's truck.

"Charlene? Hi, it's kurt. Is Sam there?"

Sam is in his T-shirt and sits drinking coffee with his wife charlene and hands him the phone.

"Hi, kurt what can I do for you?- Sure, around four, okay?"

He looks and drews sitting there with a cigarette and coffee.

Blaine is working. Scaffolding is being adjusted. Puck glances up and sees him. "You feel as bad as you look?"

"I'm all right." Blaine stops where the other insulators have gathered. He

looks up and the scaffolding is rigged around a tall tower. It is 200 feet into the air and other men are starting up.

"Come on, Blaine. bring me that

wrench, will you?" Blaine is alone at the bottom and he puts his foot on the first rung and begins to climb.
