The trip to church with Mr. Rutherford had been very informative and quite pleasant. Kathy had learned a little more about the family and had also seen her boss from the library. Most of all she felt she had won a partial acceptance from her precious Wade's father. She was hellbent on making sure the man did not dislike her.
When they parked at the ranch Dedee's car was gone. Kathy was slightly alarmed but tried to hide her concern her ride was no longer there.
"Wade, Leroy, and the boys are down pumping water from the creek up to the pond since we haven't had any rain, and you will find Catori in the stable," Mr. Rutherford told her as they stepped out of his truck.
"Thanks, Mr. Rutherford " Kathy offered as she headed to the stable.
He replied, "And Kathy, I already asked you to call me Pops, Mr. Rutherford sounds way too formal around here."
"Thank you, Pops." she returned as she felt the smile radiating from her face.
In the stable she found Catori brushing an Appaloosa filly. The white with black spots reminded Kathy of a Dalmation. As Kathy snuck up she listened to the conversation that was going on with the horse. She heard Catori telling the horse about a new girl she would be seeing soon, and to get used to her because she seemed to be long term.
"But the girl has something wrong with her feet, in fact, she tiptoes like a bull with a broken leg." said as she turned and smiled at Kathy.
"How long did you know I was here?" Kathy laughed back at her.
"Well when the truck was coming down the driveway, then two doors shut, I knew you were getting close, but when Lightning Bolt started watching you over my shoulder it was pretty clear where you were standing," Catori said with a grin.
"Thanks for the outfit, church went well," Kathy said.
"My pleasure to help, I've cleaned your stuff also including the panties you left on the floor with some pretty obvious stains, so do you want to tell me how last night went?" Catori asked.
Sheepishly Kathy replied, "I've never really been one to talk about my sex life, but Yes, we almost did it all the way."
"From the look of the panties that was a little more than almost honey," Catori said with a puzzled face.
Kathy explained how Wade had gone down on her on the back of the flatbed until she couldn't cum anymore and when she grabbed his prick to try and fit inside he finished a bit too early. She continued on how he got some inside, then some on her breast, then she took the finish with her mouth.
"So he fired the cannon as soon as he got it pointed downfield?" Catori laughed.
"Please, don't make fun of him or tell anyone, please," Kathy pleaded in alarm realizing what would be said.
Catori took a serious tone, "Look, I'm not Dedee, what is said between us will always stay between us. I'm more concerned he shot inside you, and are you on birth control?"
"Well, no, I hadn't planned this far ahead," Kathy said with a worried face.
"Today is Sunday, everything is closed. Tomorrow morning go to Greens Drug Store on the corner in town, see Mr. Ed the pharmacist, and get a pill called the day after," Catori instructed.
"Oh my, then he will think I'm a whore" Kathy responded with fear in her eyes.
"Option one, Mr. Ed thinks you had a good weekend and got laid, or option two spend the next nine months fat as a cow, waddling like a penguin, and getting ready to push an 8lb baby through a passage that Wade's prick won't fit in, after not even getting properly laid, so just get the damn pill." Catori reasoned.
Kathy nodded her head and realized there was no option. They went in the house for a sandwich then returned to the stable to chat in privacy some more. Kathy learned the name and story behind each horse and realized Catori spoke of each like a close friend or family. With exception of one. He was in the stall next to Lightning Bolt.
"That is one mean and evil son of a bitch that Wade brought back from the rodeo when he came home, and he will hurt you," Catori explained. "He keeps thinking one day he will break him and ride into the sunset I guess, but that MFer won't even let me in the pen to groom him or muck the stall," she continued.
Kathy looked at what Catori said was about a three-year-old wild-looking unkept horse that stood fifteen hands and the whole ranch team feared. What she saw was a beautiful copper tone Arabian colt that really needed a bath and brushing, and his stall cleaned. As she approached the pen he backed away and reared up telling her to back off. Yep, that would have to be why Wade wanted to ride she thought to herself.
It was close to 4 PM when the guys came into the stable hooting and hollering but looking beat from a hard day's work.
Catori watched as Kathy followed every move Wade made with stars in her eyes, she was almost glowing. Leroy approached Wade and talked low and Kathy couldn't hear what was being said. She automatically assumed it was about her.
Wade spoke up loud then so all could hear. "So Leroy just pointed out everybody just worked a full day on Sunday and was wondering if you guys could have an extra day off during the week." "Half of you will ride in the morning to check the field and fence and take the rest of the day off. The other half is off all day."
"How do we decide which half rides?" asked the ranch hand called Timbo.
Wade replied, "Yall work it out, the other half rides Friday morning with the rest of the crew off, I think today was a great success, thanks for getting it all done. Everybody gets a day and a half off for working Sunday. Don't forget to thank your foreman."
