“Well, look what the cat dragged in,” I tell Creed, a friend I’ve known for a couple of years now. He only comes in when he’s passing through, a lineman by trade, but on his down time you can find him at a rodeo. The man has balls of steel to get on a broncing buck at his age. At the age of thirty-two, there is no way in hell you’d see me doing that. Fucking crazy is what he is.

“Hey, man.” I walk towards him, shaking his hand and pulling him in for a one-armed hug. “Yeah. Figured I’d stop by before I get back home. Taking a job working locally from now on. You’ll probably see less of me unless you actually get out of this place more.”

“Who says I don’t get away from the island? If you were home more, you’d see that I was at my place a fuck of a lot more lately.” I’m home more than ever now, and the bar isn’t suffering from it either.

“No shit? Well, then, maybe I’ll see you more.” I walk back around to the bar while he takes a seat on an empty stool.

“Yep, that will happen when you find a woman like Reese.” His eyes perk up.

“You found someone who’s got you settling down? Congrats, man.” I hand him a bottle of Coors, popping the cap open.

“She’s one of a kind. What has you working locally now? Getting tired of traveling so much?” I ask. It’ll be nice as hell to have him back home.

“Rhett’s sister, Laney, called me. Apparently, their dad is retired, reluctantly, but it left them in a bind. Leaving Rhett to do a majority of the work. Laney was bawling her eyes out. So, here I am, but if you’re home more, I’m sure I’ll see you around.” Creed, Rhett, and I live in the same area, Rhett’s family owning a bigger spread than Creed and me.

“Laney called you, huh?” I poke the bear, knowing full well there was a reason he went to work traveling the entire fucking state, leaving his own small ranch and hiring a hand to take care of his livestock.

“Don’t start. I’m not coming back for her. Only trying to be neighborly and lend a helping hand.” Creed is so full of shit, but now isn’t the time to give him shit, not with the way he’s looking like the weight of the world is on his shoulders.

“Let me know if I can help. Reese and I are home more often than not. I’m pretty sure she’ll be here permanently once summer is over,” I offer.

“I appreciate that. Might help Laney to have a friend around too.” That I can attest to. I might even see if my mom would be interested in doing a girl’s day with Reese too. I know today she and Reese are out shopping, which if I know my mom, they’ll both come back exhausted and with a car full of bags.

“No problem.” We shoot the shit for a little bit.
