Clint rubbed his hands together. “I didn’t know if I should.”

“You’ve been avoiding me.”

“Yeah. I didn’t mean to. I needed some space and time to think.”

Trevor nodded, looking grim. Clint could see that this was a conversation that they shouldn’t be having now. It was probably one Trevor shouldn’t be having right before his competition.

“Be careful out there. I worry about you,” Clint said.

“I’m always careful,” Trevor said.

There was a cocky edge to Trevor’s voice that Clint didn’t like.

He took too many risks out there when he put his life on the line riding those bulls. A big part of Clint didn’t like what Trevor did for a living, but there was nothing he could do to change what Trevor was or what he did. He was good at it. A small part of him found it sexy as hell, but Clint wasn’t about to tell Trevor that. He already had a big enough ego as it was.

Trevor stepped in close. “I don’t like you running from me.”

Clint nodded. “I needed some space. I wasn’t trying to run. I just like to think things through.”

Trevor didn’t seem to believe what he was saying, but there was nothing more Clint could say on this subject matter right now. He wanted Trevor’s head in the game and not on their relationship. The announcers were just getting under away.

“Be safe out there,” Clint said.

“I will be.”

Trevor turned and walked away. A shiver went through Clint’s body as he saw his lover walk away to put himself in complete danger. He didn’t want him to, but there was nothing he could do to stop him. Clint took his seat in the stands and waited for Trevor’s turn to get on a bull and ride like a champion. Several riders went before Trevor. It was clear that Trevor was one of the favorites amongst the crowd. Across the way, Clint saw Trevor getting on the bull in the bucking chute. He tucked his riding hand beneath the rope to hang on tight. Several long minutes ticked by before the gate opened. The bull Branding Clint

crashed out of the gate, bucking hard. Trevor was bucked around violently. This was going to be the longest eight seconds of Clint’s life. Trevor had to stay on for at least eight seconds to qualify. It was as though everything that was happening was in slow motion. Clint held his breath as he watched Trevor ride. Then all of a sudden he was flung from the bull, flipping through the air. He landed hard, rolling onto his back. He didn’t roll far enough away. The bull kicked and jumped, twisting its body. The bull landed several kicks onto Trevor.

Clint gasped as saw his lover trampled beneath the bull’s hooves before they got the bull away from him. His heart melted when he saw that Trevor was rolling to his feet, gripping his side. He was injured badly. Clint ran from the stands, rushing to the side of the ring. He sprinted around the circle and tried to get to Trevor, but they weren’t letting him through.
