Friday . . .

Ray was still avoiding Ava like she had a deadly strain of COVID. Considering that, Ava knew he wasn’t going to pull himself together to go to Dax’s game in Columbus. It was a two hour drive from Townsend. Ava and Tom rode with Jesse in his green Jeep Cherokee. When they got to the school, all the usual suspects were there to watch Dax play - Gill, Jock, Lance, John, Gable, Joe, Bobby, and Kyle along with two extra hands, Matt and Josh.

The game between Columbus Cougars and Broadwater Bulldogs began with a kick-off to the Cougars. The first two quarters were rough on the Bulldogs. The Cougars weren’t playing around with them. One of the linebackers on the Bulldog side got injured. EMTs carried him off the field on a stretcher. No one was sure what was wrong with him.

When half-time came along, the score was 28 to 7, Cougars had a good lead on the Bulldogs. Ava was actually worried that the Bulldogs might lose their first gam

    “It sure is taking a long time for the boys to come out here,” Ava commented. “They’ve been in the locker room for a little over an hour. It usually doesn’t take Dax that long to take a quick shower and change.” Jesse looked at his new Rolex. Then he looked around the paved parking lot. A lot of vehicles were sitting idle. Most of them he recognized. A lot of family members were still waiting for their son or nephew to come out so they could go home. “Shit. You’re right. And I know exactly what has happened.” “What?” “The fifth quarter,” Jesse answered as he quickly opened the driver side door. Before he could hop out to look for Dax, he saw a bunch of Bulldog jerseys running like hell to the parking lot. “Dax!” Jesse yelled. Damn. I had a feeling those sore losers still wanted a piece of those boys. I should have waited for Dax at the locker room doors and made him come with me. The last thing he nee

    Saturday . . . Ray couldn’t avoid Ava forever – and he was starting to feel like a coward for doing so. He put on his big boy pants and went downstairs for breakfast. In his case, his big boy pants were a pair of dark denims. At the very least, he was looking forward to Ava’s cooking. What he had eaten during the past few weeks had been great – better than great. She could really burn in the kitchen. He began smelling food once he entered the living room. Smells like either bacon or sausage. Nice start to the day. Ray wasn’t sure what had happened last night at Dax’s game. He was in bed by the time they got home. He remembered the last time he had checked it was twelve-thirty. So they had to get home sometime after that. Ray hoped it was a good sign that they had won.He waltzed into the kitchen. “Good – what the hell happened to you?” he asked with shock as he looked at his eldest son.Dax had a shiner so bad his eye was cl

    Ava and Hawk Calhoun had strode into the Town Club in Three Forks, a town thirty-three minutes from Townsend, arm in arm. A few guys greeted Hawk as soon as they had walked in. Hawk had introduced her to them and then they had grabbed a table for two in a nice cozy corner. They ordered beer, wings, and potato wedges. Hawk’s brother, Colt, had picked Ava up at the ranch. He had driven their brand new black Wagoneer 4x4. Hawk had said they had bought it for the ranch but had found it practical for long trips. Colt had driven it tonight to fetch Ava because it was the one SUV the brothers knew that the Steeles weren’t familiar with - yet. Colt had driven Ava to The Cowboy Saloon parking lot where Hawk was waiting for her in his white Chevrolet Silverado. From there they rode to Three Forks. Colt had said he would meet them in an hour or so to play pool. “There’s something I’ve been dying to ask you since I meet you in the parking lot to come here,” Ava

    It was only nine o’clock when they left the Town Club. Belle had suggested going to The Cowboy Saloon in Townsend to dance. “I’m game if a fight isn’t going on when we get there,” Colt said. “What do you say, Ava? If you’re tired, we can get you home instead of –” Hawk began. “No way,” Ava interrupted. “I haven’t had this much fun since . . . the accident. Let’s go.” Hawk grinned. “Great. Maybe we can finally have that dance.” Ava smiled. “I’m up for the challenge, Mr. Calhoun.” Thirty minutes later they waltzed into the saloon. It seemed like everything was fine and everyone was having a good time. It was really crowded – a lot more than last time. They grabbed a booth and ordered beers. They talked for twenty minutes until a line dance song began to play. The Cowboy Hustle. Ava was happy to learn a new line dance. She was beginning to like country music – or she was getting used to it. A

    Jesse Steele laid flat on his back in bed as Connie rode astride his crotch. She was a little hefty – a good size sixteen, but as long as the tits were big he didn’t mind a woman having a little extra weight. And Connie’s tits fit his criteria. At an earthquaking size DD, Connie’s breasts swayed and bounced as she did. Her nipples were the color and size of nickels. The other thing that made the sex out of this world with her was that her pussy was tight and juicy wet. “That’s it. Keep going, honey,” Jesse groaned as the bed squeaked. He had been meaning to get a new box spring but he had been busy. Truth was he was putting it off because he had come to like the squeaking when he was fucking. It was like a gauge telling him how fast he was going. Some of his girls liked it, too. Two of them had said it was like having soothing music in the background during the act. What wasn’t like music was his cell ringing. “Damn it,” he said through

    “Put that thing away before someone gets hurt,” Ava ordered harshly. She couldn’t believe Ray pulled a gun on them – or rather Hawk. She knew that’s who he was aiming at. “What the hell are you doing on my property at this time of night, Calhoun?” Ray asked, while aiming the shot gun at him. “Ugh, hell,” Colt groaned as he and Belle came out of the darkness. “Just escorting a lady to her door, Steele. No harm done,” Hawk answered coolly. For a man who had a gun pointing at him, he was cool as a cucumber in the refrigerator. “Well, she’s at her door. Time to go,” Ray said nastily. His jaw was hard as stone. “Hawk, his property, his rules,” Colt said cautiously. “Yeah, yeah, yeah,” Hawk slurred as he put his huge hat on. He turned to Ava. “Goodnight, Miss Ava. It’s been a real pleasure. Hopefully, we can go out again soon.” “I hope so,” she whispered. This was so embarrassing. As

    The next morning . . . Ray could and couldn’t believe he lost control last night – again. He couldn’t help it. Ava had looked so damn tantalizing in a mini skirt and a tight as hell white T-shirt. Then again, she looked tantalizing in almost everything she wore – even sweatpants. As Ray showered, he remembered the sweet smell of Ava’s sex. It made him so hard that he had to lube up with soap to get a quick release. It was hell working a ranch and attending to other responsibilities with blue balls. With his mind clear and his body clean, he exited the shower, dried off, and got dressed – a long-sleeved, dark blue shirt with thin white stripes and blue jeans. When Ray got to the living room, he smiled. He could always smell what Ava was cooking by the time he got to the living room. He kept walking until he got to the kitchen. Jesse was gracing their table this morning. Tom was chattering away about a new boy scout badge he wa

    Ava had an idea as soon as Ray told her he wouldn’t be back for lunch. She could take him and the boys lunch out on the land. She had seen that on the Food Network. A woman named Ree Drummond and her family had a ranch – and a cooking show. Ava had watched it a few times to get cooking ideas and tips. Ree had taken lunch out on the land to her family and ranch hands on the show. There were times Ree had surprised them with lunch. Ava could do that, too. Ava waited until Ray left – with Tom surprisingly. Ava learned from Dax that Ray had asked both boys if they had wanted to go with him today. “How come you didn’t want to go with your father?” Ava asked as she stood in the door way of Dax’s bedroom. Dax was laying on his back on the full size bed. He had an IPad in his hand and off to the side as he looked at her. “I didn’t want to spend my entire Sunday around cattle. If it was only for a few hours I might have gone.” “Mmm

    Uncle Jesse pulled up a few feet away from Lana’s door. He had dropped Rhonda off ten minutes ago. She seemed to have had a good time. Before Dax and Lana could get out of the Cherokee, the front porch light came on along with the lights that lined the walkway. The front door swung open. Mr. Anderson stepped out on the porch – with a gun holstered on his hip. “Oh, good grief,” Lana moaned as she placed her hand over her face. “Do you think it’s loaded?” Dax heard his voice crack. “Don’t worry, nephew. I got your back,” Uncle Jesse said as he leaned over and opened the glove compartment. He pulled out a hand gun. “Ever since that away game you had with the Columbus Cougars, I’ve started keeping this close.” “Oh my god,” Lana said nervously. “Please don’t shoot my dad. He just . . . overreacts sometimes.” “Honey, I won’t shoot him as long as he doesn’t shoot at us,” Uncle Jesse said. “Come on, let’s go.”

    Ava had snacks ready for Dax and Lana when Jesse had brought them to the ranch – with a date of his own surprisingly. Ava had served homemade Chex mix, homemade pizza bites, and cookies she had baked that morning. The teens – and Jesse and his date, Rhonda, gobbled it up like they hadn’t eaten in days. Now, they were ready to ride. Ava and Ray were going to accompany Dax and Lana on their little ride. Thankfully, Ray had gotten back from Radersburg in time to go with them. Jesse and Rhonda decided to tag along. Lana had a black vest in her bag. She put it on under her coat before they walked out the door.They all rode in Jesse’s Cherokee to the stables. Ray was already there and he had already saddled the horses. Ava was on Whisper like she was last time. She and the horse had developed a relationship. During the times she rode with Dax in the old Ford, practicing for his driver’s test in a couple of weeks, they had stopped by the stables. While there Ava had

    The next day . . . The day after Thanksgiving, Dax’s first date. He had never been that interested in girls –until Lana Anderson came along. It was ten o’clock when Ray went to Dax’s room to check on him. Dax was playing it cool but the pile of clothes on his bed said he was everything but cool. “What’s with the clothes? Surely, they’re not all dirty,” Ray said. “Um, no. I was just . . . going through things. You know. What I still where and what I don’t where anymore,” Dax said. Ray couldn’t help but snort with amusement. “Couldn’t figure out what to where, huh?” “Nah,” Dax said taken aback. “That’s something girls go through. Not guys.” Ray chuckled. “When a guy goes out on his first date with a girl he is crazy about, we do.” He sat down on the edge of the bed. “Can’t get anything by you these days,” Dax mumbled as he turned to look in the mirror that was attached to the short dresser.

    In New York . . . Just like every year, Lester Bartholomew sat at the head of the dining table and whatever woman he was married to at the time sat at the other head. And as usual all twelve of his children were at the Thanksgiving table – minus one. Lester had fired the five private detectives he had hired to find Ava. Not one of them had a clue after five months of searching – or not searching. Lester believed at least three of the PIs were just cashing the checks and spending his money on other things. He had called Sheriff Wilson last week to see if he had turned up anything. He hadn’t but he had a suggestion. “Sir, why don’t you hire a PI that’s actually from and still lives in Montana? A guy from this great state would know all the small towns, cities, and hidey holes a person could get lost in.” “I have to admit it’s worth a try. I have also been thinking about slapping an award on Ava to anyone who has information of

    Ray nearly groaned out loud at the aroma that was tickling his nose as they walked down the hallway. “Damn, something smells good,” Gill commented. “I suspect it’s a lot of things smelling good right now,” Jesse said. They began walking through the living room. The sunset got Ray’s attention, making him glance out the huge frame window. And that’s when he saw it. “Son of a bitch,” Ray said as he strode to the front door. He opened it wide – damn the cold. “What is it?” Jesse asked as he rushed up behind him. “Whose truck is that?” Ray asked with disgust. It was taking up half the drive. It had Getter Done Trucking on the truck and the trailer. “You didn’t hear it pull up?” Dax asked. “No,” Ray said, taken aback. “Did you?” “Yeah, while we were watching the game,” Dax answered. “I guess you were too busy cussing that bad referee out.” “I guess we all were

    It was Thanksgiving Day and Ava was working her ass off in the kitchen. Despite making the mashed potatoes, gravy, two pumpkin pies, an apple pie, and cranberry sauce the day before, she was still running around like a chicken with its head cut off. The turkey was still in the oven and she still had to bake the sweet potato casserole and the rolls. Per cooking tips from Mrs. Porter, Ava was cooking green beans in a crockpot and macaroni and cheese cooking in another crockpot. Luckily, there were already various crockpots in the kitchen. Two were smaller sizes. Ava had stuffing in the turkey but from what she gathered from the Steele men, they don’t like their stuffing baked in the turkey. So, Ava had a separate dish filled with homemade stuffing. She trotted over to the oven to check on the twenty-two pound turkey for the third time in two hours. The popper was finally out on it. She turned the oven off and closed the door. Instead of running to the den to get

    Everyone was in the foyer of a very fancy house filled with expensive looking furniture and knick knacks. A dark varnished short table with two drawers with gold looking handles was against the wall under a large oval mirror on the wall. The floors looked to be white marble in the foyer. A brass coat rack was in the corner. A painting Dax figured was a copy of the Mona Lisa was on the opposite wall. “I don’t think any of us have formerly met,” the blonde haired woman said. “I’m Helen Anderson, Lana’s mother and this is my husband, Langley.” Ava and Ray introduced themselves. Ray didn’t make an overture to shake Langley’s hand. He looked like he was about to shoot all of them. “Would any of you like some hot chocolate or coffee?” Mrs. Anderson asked. “None for me, ma’am,” Ray said. “Oh, please, call me, Helen.” “All right,” Ray said. “Helen, why don’t you take um . . .” Mr. Anderson trailed

    Three days later . . . It was two days before Thanksgiving, and Dax was a nervous wreck. He rode in the back of Uncle Jesse’s green Jeep Cherokee as Ava and his father rode upfront. Uncle Jesse let them borrow it for the afternoon. “You’re awfully quiet,” his dad said as he glanced in the rearview mirror. “Wouldn’t you be if you had an audience when you’re about to . . . you know,” Dax stammered. “Ask a girl out on a date as you present her with hearts and flowers,” Ava guessed. In this case, it was candy and flowers. “Son, do you really think Lana’s father is going to let you speak to her alone when you show up? Especially after the way you had treated her last year? And he probably won’t let you take her anywhere without some sort of guarantee concerning her . . . person. Trust me. You want your father with you in a circumstance like this,” Ray said. “For back up.” Dax eased out a breath.

    The next morning . . . The Steele family sat down for breakfast, including Jesse. As usual, Ava sat at the table with them to eat her breakfast. Ham and cheese quiche. After breakfast, Jesse and Tom went to the living room. Jesse wanted Tom to look at the pictures he had taken of him yesterday with the buck. Jesse had said he was going to have the best ones printed and framed. Dax stood. “Before you go to your corner of the world, Dax, I got something for you,” Ray said as he reached into his pocket. He had Dax folded bills. Dax slowly took it as confusion showed on his face. “It’s the money I owed you for doing extra work on the ranch,” Ray said. “Oh,” Dax said with realization. “I didn’t think you pay me so soon.” “It’s been a little over two weeks. I meant to give it to you yesterday but Tom bagging that buck distracted me,” Ray said with a little smile as he continued to sit
