"Have you ever done anal?" Were the words Catori woke up to with Kathy whispering in her ear.
"Have you lost your mind?" Catori replied rubbing her eyes.
"It's just something I keep thinking about, I wonder how bad it's going to be the first time," Kathy pondered.
"Holy shit girl, you need to talk to Dedee about crazy shit like that," Catori told her.
Dedee was waking up in the next bed over rubbing her eyes. She heard them talking but wasn't sure about what she had heard.
"Damn it's early, don't you have your own room now? What are you doing in here?" Dedee asked.
"I been thinking what it would be like to do anal, you know, let him have all of me," Kathy whispered to Dedee.
"With Wade? I would say he will rip you in half and leaving you needing to go to the ER for stitches," Dedee told her while looking at Catori in disbelief.
"Fuckin sun ain't even up yet, have you slept at all?" Catori asked.
"Some, but I just keep thinking,,,well you know," Kathy said back in a whisper.
"Stop thinking, just go make some coffee since we are up now," Dedee told her.
"And no more talk like that while I'm sober," Catori finished.
The girls were finished with breakfast and coffee, sitting on the porch when they saw a Black Navigator coming up the drive. Pops was still inside at the table and most of the guys were looking at a new calf in the corral feeding from the mother.
The Navigator pulled to a stop in front of the house and the doors opened.
"Oh shit, it's my parents," said Kathy.
Her father was out first, a business-looking man in a suit standing 5'10" or less weighing 150lb. Her Mom was an attractive-looking lady. an inch shorter and very thin. Her gaudy-looking sister had to be over 6 feet tall with long blonde hair looking like an overpriced big city call girl.
Her father walked straight to the porch and in a scolding tone said, "Kathy, we need to speak with you, alone."
Catori smiling, stood and said, "Good morning Sir, we can go inside to give you some privacy."
Dedee looking worried stood to follow her lead.
As soon as they stepped in the door they heard him raise his voice.
Her Father started with "Have you had enough fun playing cowgirl yet?"
"Dad, this is what I want to do with my life, they are giving me a great opportunity to get my accreditation hours here." Kathy tried to tell him.
He had already grabbed her by the arm and was pulling her towards the Navigator while she was trying to pull away.
"You're not even old enough to know what you want in life!" he bellowed.
"Dad, I went to college for this, this is my dream, not yours, but it's exactly what I want to do," Kathy pleaded.
"I agreed to pay for business college, and you spent that on playing with farm animals for four years," He roared.
"It is a business Dad, it's a lucrative business that I enjoy," she wailed as he opened the back door to put her in.
Her Father felt his arms get pinned to his sides with huge hands wrapped around them, his elbows dug into his rib cage as he watched his daughter get a foot shorter as he was spun in a half-circle and planted back on his feet. As soon as he regained his footing and was on the ground released he spun 180 to scream at whoever had lifted him.
He started loud, "I'm Henry Lee Blackwell, I'm here to get my daughter and you just made a huge mistake," he finished with his voice lowering with each word.
He realized he was looking at the chest of the man who had lifted him off the ground, a man with arms the size of his head. He took a step back so he could look up to see the face of this man who extended his left arm straight out to his side with a halting signal.
Wade was in a full-on march with anger on his face when he got the signal to stop. He heard the words, "I got this" and stopped to see how this was going to play out.
"Well Mr. Blackwell, I'm Leroy, the foreman on this here ranch and you just laid hands on one of our employees. I've been known to be the peacekeeper when I can. That feller over there is Wade, and if you grab her like that again, well he ain't gonna be so peaceful," Leroy said in his very slowly quiet and soft country accent.
"I own company's that swallow ranches like these, and I am not a man you want to mess with, now I'm here to take my child home" Mr. Blackwell growled looking back and forth between Wade and Leroy.
"I don't want to leave" Kathy yelled at her father.
"Well I happen to own the piece of land your standing on right now, and the gate you came through to get here," Mr. Rutherford said stepping off the porch.
"Ms. Kathy, why don't you show your Mom and Sister that new calf you delivered, while your Father and I have a glass of tea and get to know each other more diplomatically?"
"You delivered a baby cow?" her mother said astounded with a huge smile.
"Come, I will show you both around," Kathy said seeing the excitement in her Mother.
Kathy showed her Mother and Sister the calf, explained how the mother's milk gave him colostrum to strengthen their immune system. Then she showed them the horses, and Trouble behaved like a fully trained show animal. Then in her office, she explained a lot to them about her job duties and working for Hoss part-time. After an hour and a half of show and tell they headed back towards the house.
Mr. Blackwell and Pops were both in rocking chairs, while Wade leaning against the rail on the porch. Catori and Dedee had brought them each a glass of sweet tea which Kathy noticed her Father had drunk half of.
"Come inside, I will show you my room," Kathy said to her Mom and Sis not wanting to interrupt the men's conversation.
After the room, they looked around the house in amazement.
"This really is a large house and very nicely decorated" her Sister finally said.
"So, you told and showed me everything, except this boyfriend I see you found. Is that the Wade outside? The other big cowboy?" Her mother finally asked.
Kathy beamed and pointed to a picture on the wall, he was on a bull, hat in the air and with the fans in the background cheering.
"Yes Mom, he is a real Cowboy and rode Pro Rodeo for a while. He is the sweetest most gentleman I think you could ever ask for," Kathy told her.
"He didn't look very gentle when we first got here," her sister said.
"He might be a wee bit protective" Kathy nodded, "But you know how safe I am here?"
Wade stuck his head in the door and said, "Darlin, your Dad is ready to leave."
Kathy took that opportunity to introduce her Mother and Sister.
"Mom, Trish, this is my Wade," she said as he stepped over to greet them.
"Ms. Blackwell, Trish, it's a pleasure to meet you, ladies," he said shaking both their hands.
"The pleasure is ours," her mother said with a smile then whispered, "Please look out for my daughter."
