A Cowboy In Love

Hello doctor, I'm glad you had time to come.

ves Jack told me that it was really urgent that I check your granddaughter who was very ill.

Well she's not bad as such, but she is very pale and weak. She hardly eats anything and is always sleeping.

Well, let's see what's wrong with her.

The doctor was alone with Megan for more than an hour, everyone was waiting in the room. After a long while they heard footsteps on the stairs and they all stood up waiting for the result.

Well doctor? Jack asked impatiently.

Well, there's nothing wrong with her. She's perfect, she just needs to eat well, drink some fluids and take some vitamins that I've already prescribed.

Well? exclaimed Jack. -But she's as pale as a corpse and she hasn't been eating well for days.

She'll be fine Jack, she asked me to have her friend Melisa come up to see her. I'm done here, I'm leaving.

I was only calling her, and why not her grandmother? It all seemed so strange.

Megan, what's wrong?

Oh Melt She burst into tears when she saw her friend come in.

Megan, what's wrong, why are you crying? The doctor said you were fine. Did he lie?

Oh Melisa, you can't even imagine what happened.

What in heaven's name, what happened?

I... 'm pregnant, Melissa.

She cried and threw herself into the arms of her friend who was sitting on the bed next to her.

You're what?! Megan, what the hell are you talking about?

What you heard, I'm pregnant!

But how did that happen? Whose... Oh my god! Jack's the daddy?!

Ves, he is! she said blowing her nose.

At what point did you two... But you look like a cat and a dog, besides you've never been alone... Oh yes I see! The day of the party isn't it?

That doesn't matter Mel, what's important is what's going on. What am I going to do?

First tell Jack.

I'm not sure about that!

You're crazy, you can't hide the fact that he's Megan's father.

Why can’t you?

You have to tell him the truth whether you like it or not!

Well I'l think about it. She said wiping her tears. I told the doctor not to say anything, but he said I had to go to his office for a check-up.

The only thing I can think of is to talk to Rodrigo about taking us to San Antonio.

He's Jack's best friend, he'll tell him everything. You're crazy!

Don't worry, I'll talk to him very seriously.

What excuse are we going to give to go? The grandmother will be very curious and not to say of Jack.

In what moment you two... Stop if you look like a parrot and a cat, but you've never been in the sun... Oh yes, it's going to happen! On the day of the party, isn't it?

The only thing I could think of was to talk to Rodrigo so he could take us to San Antonio.

He's Jack's best friend, he'll tell her everything. You're crazy!

Don’t worry, I'll talk to him very quietly.

What excuse are we going to give for going? Grandma will be very curious, not to mention Jack.

More for Jack to tell him that he is the father, he was worried about you.

I don't know, he's not ready for this.

Neither are you, but you will be. You know how that man is going to be when he finds out you're pregnant by him and you've kept it from him.

How could I tell a man who didn’t want a serious relationship with a woman who was going to have his baby. How could she be so careless.

I promise I'll think about it. When he finds out he won't let me leave here.

Is living here so bad?

I have my life in Atlanta.

You can have it anywhere, Megan. And your son is heir to this land.

I don’t want to talk about this anymore, it makes me sick.

Okay, but this isn't something you can just walk away from overnight.

When Melissa went down to the kitchen Jack was waiting for her along with Grisell.

Well, what did he tell you? I don't believe that story the doctor told us," Grisell blurted out.

Megan is fine, she’s just tired, she told me she wanted to sleep.

And why did she only call you? Grisell asked again.

You know she doesn't like you going upstairs all the time.

Well, I'll bring her dinner up later.

(l... "ll g0 to the barracks then. Says the cowboy.

Dinner will be ready at the usual time, Jack.

Okay, thanks.

He thought the same as Grisell, something strange was going on and those two had it in for him. He suspected that Mega had talked to the doctor and asked for discretion about her illness. He had to find out what was happening to Megan, her friend would soon tell Rodrigo everything and he would tell him everything.

Patron, I thought I wouldn't see you here. Rodrigo told him.

We have to talk!

You say boss. When he called him “patron” he did it when they were talking informally, when he called him by his first name it was because he was serious.

I want you to keep me up to date with everything that happens with Megan, Melisa is your partner so she will tell you things, I want to know them.

Jack, what exactly do you want to know?

I want to know everything!

I don't want to spoil my relationship with Mel, I really like her man.

It's okay, it’s all just between us. But I'm afraid Megan's hiding something and I want to know.

All right, you're the boss.

Let's get some work done.

As Jack was on his way to his room he stood in the doorway wondering whether to go in or knock on the door of Megan's room, and in a second he was there knocking on the door of her room.

Come in!

Hello, how are you?

Hmm... It's you! I'm fine, what are you doing here?

I wanted to see if you were okay, but you look a lot better.

veah, I just needed to sleep. He sat on the corner of her bed, he wanted to hold her and above all to make love to her. And what's wrong with you? He came closer to her, leaned a little and put his hands on her neck, slowly pulling her close to him to touch her lips.

jack, what are you doing? I whisper against her half-open lips.

I don’t know Megan, all I know is that I have to kiss you.

They kissed slowly, letting themselves be carried away by their feelings full of tenderness, Megan put her arms around jack's neck and pulled him close to her as if his life depended on it.

Megan, let me make love to you.

Oh Jack, this is crazy!

Why is that? she replied, pressing a series of furtive kisses up and down his neck.

I don’t know, but I don't think it's right.

I think you think it's a good idea, because you look like a cat in heat. He said, slipping his hands under her nightgown, feeling the softness of her ribs and then grabbing her breasts.

You... Oh Jack! Don't do that...

He laid her down on the bed and pulled up her nightdress completely revealing her nakedness, her skin was so white anc silky that he didn’t mind losing himself in it. He possessed her that night with no qualms, she was as eager as he was, an he loved it. They fell completely asleep, the morning light woke Megan from a deep sleep and light knocks on the door seemed far away at the time, until an arm caught her around the waist and she jumped awake.

Oh dear! She turned and saw Jack sleeping on his stomach with his arm around her waist. - Jack wake up!

Hmm... Can you be still he said, still on his stomach.

There's a knock on the door, and you, you're naked in my bed Jack, wake up.

Oh my God, I fell asleep!

The knocking at the door was still persistent and his grandmother's voice sounded intense.

What are we going to do? Hurry up and get dressed. Why didn't you leave early?

Damn it Megan I overslept. Getting up looking for her clothes lying around, as she did so.

Megan stared at her firm a*s and muscular legs. His broad, well defined back tanned by the embracing Texas sun, he was beauty of a man.
