Chapter 17

Wade draped an arm over Charlie&rsquo;s shoulders as they walked out of the tack room into the aisle-way.

&ldquo;Well, the bands gonna be at The Waterin&rsquo; Hole tonight, so we could go dancin&rsquo;.&rdquo;

Charlie considered this, thinking of how good it felt to be held in Wade&rsquo;s strong arms.

&ldquo;Or we could build us a private bonfire.&rdquo;

That sounded even more inviting.

&ldquo;Or…there&rsquo;s gonna be a big ol' full moon, and since yer such a pro rider already, we could take us a moonlight trail ride?&rdquo;

Without thinking further, Charlie said, &ldquo;Trail ride!&rdquo;

&ldquo;Trail ride it is,&rdquo; Wade said, smiling broadly, giving Charlie the impression this would have been Wade&rsquo;s choice, too.

&ldquo;Meet me here about eight,&rdquo; Wade said, giving Charlie a hug and a kiss as his next class started to arrive for their lesson.
