Six years ago….

“You think you can do this?” Garrett asked him nervously. “Cause if we get in trouble and loose this money, my mom will kill me.”

“I got it, don’t worry. We will walk away with more than we came in with,” was his response.

“You are positive,” Garrett questioned again.

“Yes, chill out,” he looked at his cards in his hands again and looked across the table at Braxton, Garrett’s older brother, and said, “All in,” adding the last of their combined money to the pot.

“All in,” Braxton responded. Then laid his cards down first, “Full house,” he laughed, and began reaching for the pot.

“Wow, that is a great hand, but…….” He said as he laid his cards down, “It doesn’t beat a four of a kind, aces high,” he showed off all four of his aces.

“Damnit! Shit! Fuck! What the hell man!” came Braxton’s response followed by a slew of even more curse words. Garrett was whooping and hollering and patting him on the back. “Way to go man! That was awesome!

“Boys!” came Mrs. Everwood’s voice f

  • The Everwood Pack: Calypso   Chapter 66

    “Hello old friend,” said a deep raspy voice in his head. He tried to ignore it, and continued walking, glancing back at Calypso as she was shivering, he stopped.“Here, take my jacket.” He began to remove it.“B..b..but then you’ll get all wet and cold,” she said declining the offer.“I’m already wet as is, maybe it’ll bring you some warmth, since clearly you are freezing,” he said exasperated.“I’m….” she started but was cut off as he took it off and tossed it to her, and she quickly caught it.“Just take it for once in your life, without complaint,” he turned around and didn’t give her a chance to even answer or respond. She took the coat only because she was cold, she told herself, but as she put it on his scent was all over it, it was the smell of cedarwood, which reminded her of home, and aftershave with a hint of mint, and something else familiar, but she wasn’t quite sure what. She inhaled deeply, and his scent enveloped her, warming her inside. She looked down at herself and h

    Why does it bother me that he doesn’t believe me? She thought angrily.“Because you like him,” Rae perked up.“Whatever, I do not!”“Uh huh,” Rae laughed. “As far as him not believing you, can you blame him? You do tend to run off…”“Oh, my goodness, I have only run off once with him around,” she said exasperated.“Twice, remember, you ran away from him when he was trying to catch up to you, just a little while ago.”“Well, I had a good reason then, I was scared.”“True, but you can’t blame the man for not trusting you at your word, you have proven to him that you aren’t always completely honest,” Rae said pointedly. “Yes, I promise,” Calypso said looking him in the eyes, trying to express that she was being truthful. He nodded his head once as if he agreed to trust her word, then released Daisy’s reigns and he proceeded to cross the river, looking back once to make sure she was following him, satisfied that she was.Caly and Daisy crossed the river at a shallow spot and headed up the

    “No,” she grabbed the reigns halting their movement, “Lightening is probably scared and could be hurt.”“He’s a smart, strong horse, he has probably already found shelter and is waiting out the storm like we should be doing. Besides if he is hurt, there is nothing we can do for him, and we will find out when the sun comes up.”“I’m not gonna leave him out here in the storm if he is hurt!” she replied angrily, as she felt tears well up in her eyes, and tried to hold them back, thinking about Buttercup.“Why do you gotta be so damn stubborn? Don’t be stupid!” he yelled at her as his horse sidestepped, not knowing who was in control.“Stupid?!” she yelled pissed off, “I’m not stupid! I’m just worried about Lightening!” she yanked the reigns from his hands harshly and tried to turn the horse as he clasped her hands and the reigns preventing her from giving commands to the horse.“And I told you he would be fine!” Xander hollered at her.“You don’t know that!” she said petulantly, crossing

    The rain was coming down much harder now, it stung Caly’s face as she raced south towards Blackthorn territory. All she could think about was Lightening and hoping he wasn’t hurt. She didn’t want another Buttercup situation to happen like it did when she was 10. She tried not to think about the fact that she would soon be crossing into Blackthorn territory, and the fact that if she got caught, Jebidiah Blackthorn or his men at arms would probably kill her if they found her. There is no way they would be out in this storm anyways, that would just be dumb, she tried to convince herself.“Are you sure about this?” Rae questioned in her mind.“Nope, not at all! Lightening is already spooked, the poor thing must be frightened, and when that happens, they have a tendency to hurt themselves, just like Buttercup did. I don’t want what happened to her to happen to Lightning.” Caly said.“I get it, but are you sure you want to cross into Blackthorn territory? You know what will happen if you ge

    The whole ride back to Everwood’s was scattered with rain, by the time Xander reached the barn he was soaked through. His black shirt and jeans were plastered to his body clinging to him like a very uncomfortable second skin. He reached the barn and saddled up a pretty mare named Gia, grabbed a rain slicker off the hook, mounted up, and headed towards the pasture to bring the horses in. As he reached the middle of the pasture, he saw three horses huddled together. He noticed two other riders surrounding them and readying their ropes to lasso the horses. He watched as they released their ropes, catching two of the horses. The third, a white mare, broke off to the right spooked when a loud clap of thunder boomed overhead. He watched the two riders calm the horses, then one handed off their rope to the other so they could tie off both horses to one saddle. The rider who handed off the rope was short in stature and slim, but he couldn’t tell who either of them were from the distance with

    It couldn’t have been more than a few hours when Caly was awoken by the sound of loud knocking on her door. “Caly? Are you awake?” came Eli’s voice on the other side of the door.“No, go away!” Caly said grouchily, “I’m sleeping!”“I’m sorry! But I need your help,” Eli said urgently. Caly jumped out of bed, “Why, what’s wrong?” she opened the door concerned thinking the worst.“Well,” he started quickly, “Lightening got spooked by the thunder and broke out of the corral, Mr. Tate was checking up on him due to the storm. He told me to go get Xander and Cody as he raced off. Cody was just pulling up when I let him know and he followed behind Mr. Tate. I went to get Xander but there was no sign of him, as I went by the pastures the rest of the horses were still out and grazing. Anyways, everybody else is too drunk from the party to help, so, I need your help to bring the rest of the horses in before they bolt as well from the storm, it’s getting bad out there.” He let out an exasperated
