Like if my life still had some work to be done here, where I was right now. But at the same time I felt the need to just run away, it could have been the sadness that enveloped the house since mom died 5 years ago, could also be the fact that my father had more sleepless nights than anyone I've ever known, the fact he couldn't seem to move on from her. Who could blame him, she was beautiful, joyful and loved him so deeply, and on her death bed she made him promise that after a respectable amount of time he should move on, but I don't think he is ready yet. I packed a couple more boxes of my clothes when my dad, Jonah Colton walked past me. "How is the packing going champ" He asked with a smile on his face. "Are you sure you want to move Dad.. We are going to that house, it could be to much for you" I said with a slight hint of comfort in my voice. He looked down at the floor and tried to smile. Just a couple months ago we got a call, my grandmother and grandfather had been slightly under the weather and my Pop Pop felt unable to keep on taking care if his land, his cattle and everything, you wouldn't know if you just looked at my dad. He is as country as they come, very handsome 6"0 well built man with a powerful jaw and a very nice body that seemed to get him enough female attention, though he didn't seem to intent on pursuing that ever since mom died. He is actually from the same town as my mom. A small town called Jackson in Wyoming, he grew up there raised by his aunt Dove, my father's parents died when he was young so he was raised by her and he used to work for my living grandparents as a ranch hand while in highschool, and he met my mom there at their ranch. He said it was love at first sight, and I believe him, they made such a beautiful couple. After highschool they both got accepeted into great colleges, my mother went to Yale and became a doctor and my father and agricultural engineer at Cornell, they where both amazing at their jobs. My mom was a kick ass surgeon, and my father worked in a wine distribution company. They raised me here, in New York, a city I've loved so much, so full of light and love.. And for a gay teen it has enough places to meet people. That is one of the facts that scare me to move into the country, will I ever have a boyfriend again.. Will I be ridiculled, whilst here at my highschool I'm beloved and even had a couple boyfriends through my time here. But well back to the reason of the move my grand parents who are my father's in laws called him because well they have a very powerful ranch that brings more money than even my father makes, but they feel to old to keep managing the ranch and wanted the business to stay in the family and not sell it. My dad thought it for a while, took hiim some time before deciding to move back there, a town I've never even been. After my parents moved here and had me it was always my grandparents who came to visit us, not the other way around. I never understood why though. So yes my father upped and decided to move us to the country. I would sure miss my friends and everything but I have this deep feeling that this is going to help my dad get closure, Don't ask me why, I just have this feeling that everything will be ok. "Well.. I think your Pop Pop really needs help, and he paid for my education after I left that town so I need to be there for him now" My father said with a smile. "Whatever you say boss" I say as he goes back and walks down the hall. I look around my room. It looked so big with my life packed neatly into several boxes. My bed still looked disheveled after the nearly sleepless night I had yesterday. In the eve of my going away my whole school year came to my house, my father did us the favor to go to a hotel for the night while we just partied. Mt friends all said beautiful things about why they would miss me and we got really drunk.. Which ended with me having sex with an ex boyfriend like wild animals. It was a good way to say good bye though. And thank God he left right before my dad got home. He is okay with the gay but I doubt he'd enjoy catching me in bed with a very delicious man. I kept on looking at the not yet closed boxes, and chuckled to myself looking at every single memory I've collected up to this point in my life, 17 years of age and I can say, not bad. I walked myself to the long mirror in my room and looked at myself. I guess you could describe me as a twinkish guy, that's my body type according to Grindr(don't judge), I am 5"7 120lbs, light amber brown colored hair, a very nice face that resembles my mom more than it does my father. Lush lips, red and plump, high cheekbones, hair to long enough to grow out bangs but not that long to reach my shoulders, angular shaped face. Toned body, pearly white skin, nicely thick thighs and a round plump tush thats perfeclty rounded due to my extensive workouts, and a 6 inch, cut piece. I removed the bangs from my face and looked around the boxes as the moving company men walked in. They started to carry everything out but my light brown leather messenger back which I would just carry on. My father walked into my room and we made our way to the airport. The only things we had where our luggage with enough clothes for the moving company to arrive with the rest of our stuff. As we made it to our airplane seats I could sense my fathers unease. I turned to look at him, took out my Ipad and set up an air hockey game. He smiled as he started playing along with me. He kept playing against me which was making him feel much more relaxed. After a couple hours, we arrived. My father kept looking uneasy and now was pale and about to throw up, we passed through bagagge claim and down the stair case. There was this man with a cardboard that had Jonah and Riley Colton. Riley is my name by the way, Riley James Colton Davenport. We walked up to the man and he introduced himself as Verne my Pop Pop's driver. He took us to a very impressive pick up truck, a huge champange color Ford truck that could fit a dozen of gorillas on the trunk. We got into the car, me with a small boost from my father. As we drove off I started to fall asleep. *** Third Person POV *** The dirt roads made way for the impressive truck as it navigated out of the center of the town, for a small town it was quite filled with people leading their own busy lives. Riley laid spread across the large roomy backset of the truck as they made their way deeper and deeper into the dirt roads that led to a smaller community, it had its own church rather large, A couple houses and ranches, but as the road went up ahead still close to the other house laid and impressively large ranch. Acres and acres of land all owned by Hoyt Davenport, he built his great fortune by the sweat of his brown as he liked to remember anyone who listened. The Davenport ranch had endless heads of cattle, acres of land flourished with crops, stables full of horses and an impressive manor that was set right in the middle of it all, a manor that consisted of a house for the ranch hands and maids and the main house for the Davenport family. And impressive mansion that was completely decored with taste, had on the outside a massive pool with controlable temperature and the inside was all decorated with many types of wood. The floor was Honduran Caoba and glistened beautifuly. Along the impressive walls where pictures of the family, Hoyt, Mary Anne and their only daughter Beth Davenport, paintings of landscapes belonging to them also hung on the beautiful walls. chandeliers hung from the amazingly high ceiling. It was a house that simply exuded opulence. There was an air of importance that emanated from the manor as it stood so elegantly. And as a country house it had many heads of different animals hanging on the walls, placed strategically to make them combine with the ambiance. The turck made it through the gats and round the beautiful round fountain that decorated the entrance. Jonah looked around and felt the memories of it all rush back to him, the knot in his throat that his son had helped him work up till now got tighter. He remembered the moment he saw Beth after finishing a long hard day of work, so beautiful and perfect. He held back his tears as he looked back at his son, sleeping soundly with a smile on his face, he just chuckled to himself and looked at his face that reminded him so much of his wife but of him aswell. He had his determination and his spirit all the way. He placed his hand on his son's shoulder and soflty rocked him. "We're here champ" He said as Riley opened his honey colored eyes and looked up, he sat up right and nearly choked on his spit as he looked at the huge manor infront of him and the endless land that to his eyesight did not seem to show any fence delimiting its territory. "Woah! Pop Pop is loaded" Riley said with wide eyes as he pushed the door open and jumped down of the truck. He looked at the big double doors that adorned the manor's entrance, and saw his grandfather and grandmother standing there.Both well into their 50's but looked healthy and strong as always, as if time had a soft spot for them. Hoyt Davenport's eyes and those of his wife Mary Anne welled in tears as they saw their only grandson rush to them. He looked so much like their daughter. "How's my beautiful boy" Mary Anne said while a very happy grin decored her agin but graceful face. "Don't talk to him that way, he's a man, a beautiful one I won't deny, thats my lil girl's face up in you" Hoyt said with his rough voice as he hugged his grandson so tight and kissed the top of his head. Riley smiled at both of them widely. He loved his grandparents so much. They made sure he always felt loved, they bothered themselves with calling him two times a week for hour long conversations, time that had been sacred to Riley through the years. "Jonah, my boy" Hoyt said with a sad smile looking at the pale looking man, he couldn't stop staring to the field with a bittersweet look on his face. "Now let's get you settled" Mary Anne said with a warm voice. After what felt like hours of catching up and having a very nice but to big of a lunch Riley was shown to his room by his grandmother. It was quite a big room, a huge bed in the middle of the room with two sliding windows to the sides which gave way to a balcony that had a view of the pure beautiful green grass. He made sure to check he was getting wifi on his phone before instagraming the picture of his new room. The bed had wooden structure surrounding the matress which was covered in a beautiful white set of sheets and had at least ten pillows scattered in a fashionable sense. He looked around, there was a mahogany desk which was huge but looked like it took to little space on his enormous room. They floor was polished wood as well and the walls a creamy beige color. There where some painting of landscapes and horses scattered purposely around the room which gave it a nice tone. Riley placed his bag on the bed and looked further into the bathroom, it was all adorned in golden and wooden constrasts, a beautiful wide marble table with two beautiful bowl sinks rising from it. The shower was huge and had a bathtub option as well. He couldn't hold his smile as he walked back to his room, he took out his laptop and opened his spotify account. Just as he started up his playlist of music. He looked around the huge room and started dancing to some country songs he found. He couldnt help but laugh and he looked beautiful as he did. The pearly white smile adorned his face beautifly. After a while of running around and even jumping on his bed he made way to the balcony, the music still coming out from the open sliding windows. He looked down at the green pasture and he took a deep breath that filled his body completely with what he could only describe as unadultered oxygen, he felt lighter.. as if the weight of the world was left back at his old city. So far he was liking the country. He looked at his left on his wide balcony and appreaciated the fact he had a hot tub set up which made him smile. After a while admiring the view he noticed a group of three young men far away barely discernible, he noticed a girl was along with them, leaning against a fence back in the distance. Who where all looking as if they were talking animatedly. Riley took another deep breath and walked down from his beautiful room and into his grandfathers office. The place had the biggest desk he had ever seen and a lot of animal heads hanging around which made Riley slightly sick on the stomach. "Pop Pop. Can I go ride your horses?" Riley asked as he entered the study and walked to his grandfather. "You ain't got to ask, those over there are all your horses to Riley, all in this house is your's too, but you need a pair of shoes with heel if you thinkin' on riding a horse" Hoyt said giving a smile and loud belly laugh right after. He then light up his cigar as soon as Riley turned around to leave with a smile. "By the way Pop Pop.. You have to remove at least some of the heads.. I told you about this through the phone" Riley said with a serious tone. Hoyt chuckled but felt as if a string was pulled on his heart, his daughter always told him the same thing. His eyes watered but he coughed and let them clear up. He wasn't going to cry, not on the day his grandson came to live at his home. Riley made way up to his room and opened his luggage, took out the "countriest" clothes he could find, he ended up wearing some light beige jeans that where slightly snug on his body and a thick brown sweater since it felt chilly out, the woolen sweater had his name sewn on it. It was slightly to big for his body but he loved the way it looked. He fixed his fair on the mirror, made sure the longish brown waves framed his face. And he found the boots he bought before coming, which where ankle high boots, small heel and a light brown color. He did a last look up in the mirror and though himself sucessful on mixing country with cuture as best as he could. He ran down and went out the wide back doors of the house. He made his way through the green beautiful grass and walked towards the stable. Duke, Ryan, Tobias and Anna May where all laying around their spot near a fence, laying on hay stacks they where supposed to take to the silo. Duke was sitting on a hay stack with Anna May, his girlfriend sitting between his legs. Ryan was sitting on the tallest stack of hay, whilst Tobias was laying with his back on the fence. "Who's that?" Anna May's question interrupted the animated conversation the wyomingites where having regarding the previous rodeo. "Dun see nothing" Duke said squinting his eyes. "Maybe cuz Anna May's big ass head is infront of your eyes" Tobias said with a chuckle. He felt his friend punch him on the arm as he also squinted and noticed someone walk towards the stable. "I heard from Verne that the grandson of Mr.Davenport was coming today to live here" Ryan said as he tilted his hat and looked up, he as well could barely see a person in the distance. "Seems like he is going into the stable.. Dusnt seem like he's wearing the right clothes" Tobias said with a hearthy chuckle. "Yup he's from the city" Ryan informed. "Ugh I bet he is one of those spoiled candy assed city boys" Anna May said rolling her eyes. "You dun know him yet babe" Duke said scoffing with a smile as he squeezed the girl he loved tighter and closer to him. Riley was admiring the sight of the horses, so many rows, one after another. He looked down to the end of the stable, there was one lone horse there. Beautiful and completely black, not another color on his body... Riley felt as if his breath was taken away, the horse was so strong and potent looking. He looked at Riley as well and tilted his head after making a sound. Riley walked closer and closer to the horse. He read Crow on the name tag on the front of the gate. "Hey Crow.. I guess they named you like that because you're black right, doesn't take a rocket scientist" Riley said chuckling as he softly caressed the horse's snout. The horse made a gleeful sound and licked Riley's hand as soon as it got close to his mouth. Riley then looked to his left and grabbed and apple, he held it up to the powerful horse, who was way taller than him. The horse ate the apple from Riley's hand readily. Riley then opened the horses gate and grabbed the leash and walked him near the stepping stool to get ready to ride him. The horse gladly followed Riley to the stool that was nearly the entrance of the stable. At the other side of the green scenery the others stared at the scene. "Ryan! He took out CROW!" Duke said scared, the fear in his voice palpable, his words hurried and evocked fear. "He is going to get slammed and kicked, the last guy didn end up right in the head remember" Tobias said as he stood up straight. "We should go help him" Anna May spoke hurriedly as well. Ryan stood up with initative and started to walk, but then he noticed the person jump on the horse, and gallop away. "Look.. Crow's tame.." Ryan said looking at the scene slightly in awe. The horse never let anyone ride him, not even Ryan could, the only thing Ryan could do and only he, was feed the horse and pet him, but not ride, he knew he would end up badly hurt if he tried. The others looked at the scene, the person in the brown sweater was galloping in Crow. He could not believe his eyes. None of them could. "Wuldya look at that, city boy is gunna teach is something dont ya'll think" Tobias said as he light up a cigarrette and smiled at the scene. Riley was in his own world as he felt the slightly cold wind course through the crevices in his body. He felt his hair breezing away from his face as the beautiful horse made its way through the greenery. Riley then directed the horse so he could turn around. The horse seemed to make its way back but turned to his right towards the people he had seen from the balcony. Ryan felt slight anxiety as to meeting new people and try to direct the horse elswhere but it made its way stubbornly towards them. "You seeing that, city boy is making his way here.. Look presentable" Tobias said laughing as he took a drag on his cigarrette. The horse came closer and closer. They all looked at the scene as the horse arrived a couple feet from them, lifted his legs high and kicked the air before settlign them back on the soft grassy earth. Riley was looking down as the horse had jumped his legs up unexpectedly and had his hair covering his face. He moved it out of the way and smiled at the group of people. He was taken aback due to the attractiveness of them all... His eyes made their way through the boys first.. Well they looked more like men unlike the city guys. All where wearing button up t shirts, faded jeans, boots and cowboy hats. He took special atention to the one with the long messy hair who had a cigarette in his hand and the one who had a couple buttons undone and displayed his well formed chest. The other one was sitting with a girl who was as pretty as they come. "Hello.. Im Riley" His voice was barely above a squeak and seemed slightly nervous to say high. Anna May couldn't speak her eyes were going through the boys face. She found him not handsome, hot, pretty or cute.. She found him beautiful. As if his face was made with hammer and chisell on the finest and most delicate marble. She smiled at him, something about the pearly white smile seemed inviting and honest. After composing herself she introduced them all. "Hi Riley. My name is Anna May, this one is my boyfriend Duke, the one with the bad habit is Tobiass and the one staring at you like you're an alien is Ryan" She said chuckling Duke also smiled, he was the most unfazed, he just smiled happily and so sincere it made Riley feel so comfortable. Tobias looked at the guy ontop of the horse infront of him, he felt slightly parched in the throat. It was unknown to most that Tobias would swing both ways, the only ones who knew where the guys who ended up in his bed, screaming under his sheets. He looked at the face, so perfect, the legs so defined, the smile so beautiful.. It was as if he was made to steal hearts with just a smile. Tobias chuckled heartedly. "Nice to meet you boss" He said with a flirty smile. Riley felt his face heat up slightly. "I'm not your boss.. Thats my Po- Grandfather" Said Riley with the blush persistent on his face. "Still you can get me fired if you want so.. Hello boss" Tobias teased again, eliciting a laughter from all including Riley.. but not from Ryan. "I'm Ryan, nice to meet you" Ryan said as he gave his hand out to Riley, who took it and felt the rough calloused figners and tight grip. "Nice to meet you too" Responded Riley. Ryan couldn't describe his feelings right now, he always steered clear from people, was a bit of a loner. He was older than the rest of the group and felt more mature as well. He had worked all his life and was on his way to become a self made man, and had always been attracted to people like him, determined and around his age. And mostly women, he had experimentation a couple years ago but didnt make much of it.. But this time he felt weird, it wasn't love or anything. It was sexual attraction. He felt full blown desire for the guy sitting on that horse. He felt so different. Tobias however was looking at Riley along the same lines, being younger though he was thinking just a bit more romantically. He was already enviosioning ways to get him to bed. Riley in his mind was just staring at the group before he dropped down from the horse. "So.. I don't know anyone yet.. Could I hang around with you all for a bit?" Riley asked. From that moment on a series of events would be set in motion, that would make Riley's life and all of theirs a roller coaster ride.
