Chapter 11

Delight thyself also in the Lord; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Psalm 37:4

AS JED STEERED THE wagon toward the main house, Trisha leaned close to Anastasia and whispered, “Let’s go to the dance.”

“You like him?” she whispered back.

Trisha smiled like a Cheshire cat and settled further into her seat on the bench in the back of the wagon, tossing a glance in Landon’s direction where he sat with Jed up front like before. “Maybe.”

The closer they came to the main house, the more they could hear the country western band performing on the side deck of the main house. Their feet were tapping before they even pulled to a stop. When the children had been retrieved, the foursome was left standing around Anastasia’s Mazda.

“Thanks for helping me, everyone. I couldn’t have done it without you.” Anastasia loosened her hair from her messy bun and swept her fingers through her long red locks.

“No problem. I had fun.” Landon smiled at Trisha.

Anastasia noticed he could hardly take his eyes off her sister’s eyes. She looked at Jed and they exchanged a smile of their own. It appeared as though their matchmaking efforts had been somewhat of a success, at least so far.

“I think it went really well.” Trisha leaned back against the Mazda.

“So, how are you ladies feeling?” Jed asked, looking from one to the other.

“We feel great, probably because we had your help today. Let’s go to the dance.” Anastasia went around to close the trunk of her car where they’d loaded the tents and cooler.

“Are you girls ready, or do you need to freshen up while we return the wagon?” Jed asked.

She reached in the trunk and handed Trisha her cowgirl hat, then retrieved her favorite white one, slid it on over her shiny red hair, and closed the trunk. “If jeans and cowboy boots are okay, we’re ready.” She clasped her leather bag in her fingertips over one shoulder. They could wash their hands, add some lip gloss and perfume, and brush their hair inside the powder room once they were settled at a table.

They saw Jed glance at Landon and the grin spreading on their faces.

“Jeans and cowboy hats are great!” Landon put his arm around Trisha.

The two of them probably hadn’t met many girls who could be ready that quickly. Jed looked at Anastasia, then Trisha. “Would you both like to ride in the wagon while we return it to the barn, or do you want to go inside and hold down a table?”

“We’ll go with you,” Trisha inserted. Anastasia decided it was a wise response. They hadn’t been to any dinners or dances at The Sweetwater before. The place looked pretty crowded and all lit up with bright string lights, a full parking lot, and people everywhere. It’d likely be a good idea to let the handsome cowboys escort them, so she went along with Trisha’s suggestion.

At Landon’s suggestion, Anastasia ended up on the front seat next to Jed, while Landon sat in the back of the wagon next to her sister.
