Coming home

Charlotte

We pull into the driveway of Beau’s house and park behind a beautiful white Nissan Titan pickup truck. “Who’s here?”

“Nobody.”

“You get a new truck?”

“Nope, you did. Welcome home baby.”

She looks at me and gasps, “No. You did not. That’s too much Beau, this watch was bad enough I can’t accept a gift like that.”

“Yes, I did and yes, you will. Come on, I have something else for you inside.”

“Beau! I mean it you can’t keep doing this. I don’t need a car right now, I can walk to the barn and catch a ride with you to the grocery store.”

“Hush, it’s yours, end of conversation.”

“But…” his fingers come up and cover my lips. “But nothin, come on.”

He hops out of the truck and rounds the front to open my door and help me out.

“Beau,”

“Charlotte, you’re not one to argue with me now stop. The truck is yours. You need it. I want to give it to you, so I am. Period. Now bring your sweet ass into the house so I can keep spoiling my princess.”

I groan and follow him inside because what choice do I have? None.

I glance at the truck as we walk by and admire the pearly white paint and chrome trim. It’s gorgeous, and expensive, and too much.

When he opens the door to the kitchen I know instantly what my surprise is. I can feel the energy in the air, smell the presence of an animal, I can almost hear it trying to communicate with me.

“Beau!” I bounce up and down on my toes and clasp my hands together in front of my chest. “You didn’t.”

“I did. I don’t want you out here all alone when I’m not here. Cub is going to be your new security system.” He leads me into the living room where inside an octagon shaped corrugated gate is a tiny border collie puppy. He’s wagging his tail so hard it’s as if he’s wagging his whole body and his tiny tongue is hanging out flopping all over the place. “Oh my god, Beau, he’s precious,” I say dropping my purse on the floor and rush to pluck him out of his pen. Cub licks my face like it’s the best tasting thing on earth and fidgets so much I almost drop him, twice.

“I think he likes you.”

“How did you know?” I’ve always wanted a dog. When I was growing up all the dogs on the ranch were outdoor dogs and they weren’t considered pets. They worked in the plains and slept in the barn or outside or wherever they wanted.

My dad said dogs were animals and animals belonged outdoors.

“Lucky guess, and you have Pinterest boards full of Boarder Collies, baby.”

“You checked out my Pinterest boards?”

“I’m always checking you out.”

Cub is climbing up my neck trying to get my attention focused back on him. “Okay, okay buddy, I’m looking what are you trying to tell me?” I hold him out in front of me and look into his eyes. “You’re lonely? And you have to pee? Okay.
