What You’re Doing to Me – Trevor Something

It’s been a week since we have been back in Frisco and decided to find a house to buy together. We are having a harder time narrowing down where to buy the house. “So, no Seattle for you, right?” Ashlynn asks me.

“No, babe. I don’t think I could handle that rain and fog all the time!”

Looking over and smiling at me, she says, “That’s a bummer! That’s my ideal weather.”

Pulling Ashlynn into my side on the couch and kissing her temple, I say, “You are crazy, to always want gloom.”

“How about Texas?” Ashlynn says and I am a bit surprised she suggests that.

“Texas would be nice, where we started again! What city?”

Letting out a sigh and throwing her hand up, she says, “Not sure–we can figure it out at some point.”

After our usual daily talk about where we should move, I let Ashlynn convince me to go for a walk around Dillon Reservoir, even though it's freezing outside. It doesn’t seem to faze her. I guess living up in the mountain town gets you used to walking around in the cold and snow. After walking for a little, Ashlynn stops and turns to me. “Can I ask you a question?”

“You can ask me anything.”

She brings her hands up and blows into them to warm them up. Then, she finally asks, “How are we going to get a house, when we each already have one?”

I honestly haven’t thought that far yet. “Well, my house is paid for. So, we would only need to worry about your house. If you wanted to, we could keep it and use it for our vacation home when we come to Colorado.”

Ashlynn nods her head in agreement, then gets a confused look on her face. “Wait, your house is paid off? Haven’t you only been in it for three years?”

Here is something we haven’t talked about; Ashlynn doesn’t know just how well off I am financially from my riding and company. “Well, I have Chase to thank for it, really. He is smart when it comes to investments. After every competition, my winnings go right into one of the accounts he has set up. I have a total of three. One for me personally, another for Overbear, and the last one for the team.” She grabs my hand, and we continue walking. “Let’s go home, it’s freezing out here,” I tell her.

Rounding the corner to our house, I see Nick’s rental car parked out front. I asked them to come over and surprise Ashlynn for an early birthday, since hers falls on Thanksgiving this year. She also doesn’t know that Noah and Mateo are here. I invited them out for Thanksgiving, but told them to come earlier if they wanted, too. Before Ashlynn steps up to the door, I grab her hand to stop her from opening the door. “What’s wrong? I am freezing, let’s go in!”

I place my hand over her eyes, just like I did in Seattle, “I have a little surprise for you, so you need to close your eyes.
