"You ready for the last rodeo of the season?" Colin asked as we walked into the barn.

John is here, I only know cause I see my truck. My baby. Also they are all in the barn.

"Hey, did you bring my truck back in one piece?" John laughed

"Yup" I smiled

"How did you like driving an automatic" He asked

"Weird as hell, but it was nice not having to shift" I laughed

Ryan and Bobby looked confused as hell. John and I traded keys and I got Gypsy from the field.

"You ready for the last rodeo of the season" I said

He huffed and I walked him over to my trailer. That was still next to the barn. I texted Deb when I woke up this morning and she said it was fine. I was so tired last night. All my stuff is still in there from yesterday too. I just took Gypsy out, put him in his stall, un hooked the truck, and went home. Once he was secure they all went down and got their trailers. Walking over to my truck, I started her up and drove over to my trailer... it's driving so smoothly. What did he do? Hooking up my trailer, I peeked under my truck and my shock wasn't hanging anymore. Huh.

"I fixed your shock" John said

"How?" I asked

"You do know i'm a mechanic right... and I work at a shop." He laughed

"No. No I did not" I said "How much do I owe you?"

"Nothing. I got the parts for free and fixed it on the clock so, I got paid by my job" He said

"Oh. You didn't have too" I said

"Well, I wanted too. Also everybody at my job loved your truck and tried to buy it off me. But I told them it wasn't mine. They still tried to buy it. It's clean" John said

"Thanks. I appreciate it" I smiled "Also my dad kept that truck clean"

"Also I didn't destroy your transmission. I had to remember how to drive stick for a hot minute" He laughed

"Wait. Your truck is stick?" Ryan asked

"We went over this. But I guess you weren't listening" I said

He just looked at me. I did tell him. He asked for a fun fact. I told him I drive a stick shift. Guess he didn't care. I just shrugged and we all headed out. Pulling up to the rodeo, I parked next to Kate and she tackled me to the ground when I got out. Well I walked to the front of the trucks, then got tackled. I didn't expect that.

"Hi, I love you" She said

"I love you too" I laughed

"I see your got your truck back. Is it fixed?" She asked as we got up

"John fixed it. Apparently he's a mechanic" I said

"How much did he charge you?" Tommy asked walking over

"Nothing." I replied

They both looked at me. I shrugged and got my chair out of my truck. Also my blanket. It's much colder tonight then all the nights. I wore a layer under my clothes. But still cold. Thick socks are also being worn. I don't play when it comes to being cold. Now it's time to sit in my chair, and cuddle up under my blanket. Kate, Tommy, and Colin went down to get hot chocolate, I didn't want to get out of my chair. And John is walking over.

"Hey. How are you doing?" He asked

"Good. Just keeping busy" I said

"How was your trail ride yesterday?" He asked
