Chapter 14

I read up on the Wellers and screamed out loud when I saw Royal would be in Buffalo, too. He wasn’t working, only coming to see Tennyson. I worried when I read Russell Tarwater would be there. I didn’t want Tennyson losing focus by having me hanging around.

I saw a few pictures of Tennyson with various women, but it didn’t faze me. I knew what he looked like when he was in love, and his face never had that look. I assumed he was relieving tension before rides and wanted to believe he was still dreaming of me. I wasn't sure if I were going to let him know I would be there, or surprise him.

Tennyson decided for me when Martin walked into my dressing room after the last performance before the holiday. "Did you see your cowboy showed up?"

“He’s here?” I asked and jumped up from my chair.

"No, he left. I observed him; made sure he didn't cause any problems, but he just left along with the crowd."

“He wouldn’t cause any problems,” I said in anger. “You should have told me.”

"He obviously didn't want to see you. He never asked to come backstage, and I called the hotel, he didn't stop by there either."

I felt tears sting my eyes and I began removing my makeup harshly. Martin continued to stare at me, and I looked at him accusingly. "What?" I asked.

"Are you going home for Thanksgiving? I haven't made any travel plans for you."

“No, I’m staying here. I want to rest and see a bit of the city.”

"Barton's going to Florida; we could have you visit," Martin threw out, to see if I would be receptive.

"Get out," I said softly and went back to my mirror.

I stayed in my room the entire day on Thanksgiving and ate out of a vending machine. I debated on what to do about Tennyson. He obviously didn’t want to see me, so I needed to keep my visit quiet, too. I purchased a ticket for the Saturday event, wanting to see him ride bulls not broncs and booked a room at a local hotel.

I was such a girl about the whole thing, wanting to wear something sexy so he would want me, but also not wanting to stand out in the crowd. I settled for jeans and a light jacket with a low-cut t-shirt. I found some cute fashion boots, not western boots, to complete the outfit.

I arrived early, and the arena was only sparsely populated. I was staring at the numbers over the various entrances trying to find my section when someone called my name. My head snapped around quickly to see Cherry walking toward me.

“I didn’t know you would be here?” she said sweetly, and I felt anger building inside me.

"Are you filming me?" I asked hatefully. "I mean; I want to know if you're getting my best side or not."

“Sorry about that, but some friends were trying to get even with me over something. I had nothing to do with it,” she lied.
