Life can be depressing sometimes when you lose your way. Seems to happen to me a lot lately. Only thing I can depend on is the love I have for my girl, and what a treasure she is. One of a kind, partners in crime as we say. She's the coordinator and I'm the muscle. We even eachother out pretty well, her weaknesses are my strengths as mine are hers.

I can see her gearin' up Kassidy in the barn. He's a little protective of Krystal but he and I have come to terms. Leaning against the door I watch her hustle about getting him ready.

"Hey sweetheart." I smile.

She turns startled, her look changing from surprise to a joyful smile.

"Hey hun. I didn't think you were gonna make it out today?"

"Well you know me, unpredictable as ever."

"Yeah but I love that about you, keeps things interesting." She winks with a smile.

"So have you decided if you're gonna show this year?"

"Yeah I sent in all the papers, mom helped me get them ready. Are you going to come?"

I chuckled."I'd love to, but you know how I feel about all that sissy riding they do at those shows. Dressage just isn't my thing."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're a rough and tough cowboy, or so you like to think." She laughs.

"So I think? Darlin' I know I am."

"Ha ha, I know. You're my cowboy."

"Got that right beautiful, yours and only yours." I kiss her, then she gets back to work."Tell you what, I'll go. Only for you though, I don't want to watch anyone else. Deal?"

"Deal. You gonna ride Kassidy today?"

"I don't know, my legs are kinda sore from the other day."

"Ha ha, not so rough and tough I see. Guess cowboys can't really ride after all."

"You makin' fun of me now?"

"Maybe." She smiles.

"Come here." She steps closer and I pull her into my arms.

"Hi." She says cutely.

"Hi."I laugh."I love you, even when you make fun of me."

"I love you more." She says winking.

"Prove it." I challenge.

"I don't have to prove what I know is true."

"Then kiss me."

Her lips softly touch mine. The perfect kiss as I say. When your lips relax and just melt into eachother. A tingling sensation crawls up your back, and you begin to feel warm all over, almost weak at the knee.

"I could kiss you forever." She says.

"I wish that you could, I wouldn't complain."
