Chapter Twelve

GRAYSON

The workday is relatively straightforward, and luckily, nothing insane has happened this past week.

“You almost done?” Diesel asks as I throw some alfalfa out for the cows.

“Yep.” I remove my gloves and shove them in my back pocket. “Just finished.”

“Awesome. Did ya pack yet?” He grabs the tools we were using to repair the roof on the barn and places them in the tack room.

“Hell no,” I say, trying to stay focused as I climb down the ladder. Before we leave, I check the water troughs

“Why not?” he asks.

I laugh as we walk to the truck. “I procrastinated last night and thought I’d just throw a change of clothes in my bag beforehand. It’s family. Nothing fancy.”

He shakes his head. “Dude. You’re finally goin’ out with Kenzie, and you’re not bringin’ nice clothes? What’s wrong with you?”

“It’s not a date,” I explain for the umpteenth time.

“It’s called dressing to impress, but suit yourself.” He shrugs as we drive to the other barn and finish distributing the hay.

“Before Rowan and I got together, I did whatever I could to get her attention,” he admits.

“I remember, but that’s not always a good thing,” I counter. “Especially when it comes to Kenzie.” She’s made it clear she didn’t like my attention, which led to our war in the first place.

He smirks. “It worked for me, though, didn’t it?”

I shake my head and park. After a quick walk around, Diesel lets me leave early since I’m driving three hours to San Antonio tonight.

I love my job so much and don’t take many vacations. When I ask for a few days off, I usually get them.

“Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do,” he says as I pull my keys from my pocket.

“That’s not saying much.” I laugh, and he flips me off.

I go home and take a quick shower before Kenzie meets me at my place. She’s been busy with the after-school program and has been getting home later than usual. I didn’t want to interfere with that, so I told her we could leave when she was done.

After I’m dressed and shove a few pairs of jeans and shirts into a bag, Kenzie arrives with a giant suitcase.

I step outside and load our stuff into my truck.

“What’s all this for?” I ask. “We’ll only be gone a day and a half.”

“I like to have a variety of outfits to choose from. You should be thanking me for not backing out because you know I thought about it at least ten times on the way over.”

I shut the door and turn to her. “Thank you. I really do owe ya.”

“Oh, you’re gonna work for it during the Harvest Festival. Trust me.” She chuckles.

“I have no doubt about that.” I wink, opening the passenger side door for her. She climbs inside with a sweet smile, then I go around to the driver’s seat.

On the way over, we don’t talk much since Kenzie grades papers.

Eventually, we stop and eat dinner. Once we’re closer to downtown, the traffic gets heavier, and it takes us longer than I anticipated to make it to the hotel.
