 Insult. HC gasped and pushed his shoulder and let go of his hand.  Take that back.

 No. It s true. Drake chortled.  You are.
HC fumed and stamped towards the main house. Drake caught up then grabbed his
hand, holding it as they went, his soft laughing infuriating HC. When they came into view of
the house, Drake led him to the base of the stairs and turned him to him. He kissed him
gently and HC softened, returning the kiss.
They parted and HC slid his face by his ear.  There s a new desktop computer coming
today so we re getting rid of the monstrosity you call a computer in your office.
 What that ?
 Quid pro quo. HC nuzzled his ear.  We already decided that it falls under that.
Drake opened his mouth then closed it. He turned and walked away, muttering. HC
watched him and chuckled. Hearing footsteps, HC glanced at the top of the porch. Morgan
and Blayne stood there.
 What s wrong with Drake? Morgan asked.
 Bamboozled by HC. Blayne laughed.
 How could you possibly know that? Morgan retorted.
 I recognise the walk. The slumped shoulders as you wonder what the hell just
happened. Then the muttering and thinking of ways to outsmart him or conk him over the
head. Blayne chuckled.  It s a matter of what mood you are in.
 I didn t do anything. HC went up to join them on the porch.
 HC! Drake yelled.
He looked at Drake. Drake stood on the path with his hand on his hips.
 Your dad is right. You should be a lawyer, Drake called.
Since he d heard that before, HC laughed loudly. Drake turned and went out of view.
 He did something, Blayne said.
 Yes. Morgan kissed Blayne then slapped HC on the shoulder.  Don t break my
foreman.
 I m just having fun with him, HC said.
He was Drake was fun to be around and he enjoyed making him a little nuts. Also, he
just like being with him. HC frowned as he thought about that. He had to be careful to not let
Drake get too close. Absently he murmured something to Blayne and Morgan then went
inside. Soon he was in the kitchen and was glad Abby wasn t there yet. HC sat at the island

and put his hand under his chin. He might have bamboozled Drake, but the damn man was
making HC act out of character. He d never bought so many things at once for anyone he d
dated. He needed to take a step back from Drake before he got in too deep. With his mind
made up, HC rose and went to start preparing breakfast for the rest of the ranch hands.

So much for distance. HC reclined on the couch in the sunroom waiting for Drake. He d
promised to cook for him and he kept his word. Also, he had to check on his horses. As he
made each excuse, HC shook his head at himself. He d not planned to come but when his
work day was coming to an end he d eagerly left to come here. After getting to Drake s, he d
checked out the new desktop computer and found it was even better than Blayne had
promised. It was just waiting for Drake to set up his password and customise. Dinner was
ready and waiting for them to eat. HC looked at the clock and knew Drake, barring anything
coming up, should be home any minute. He heard the sunroom entrance from the back porch
open then looked over. Drake strode in, his lazy gait making HC s heart pound. Drake
stopped before him and held out his hand. HC took it and let him pull him up out of the
chair. Drake kissed him briefly.
 You wanna go for a ride?
 Yes, HC replied, his cock hard and ready for him.
Drake held his hand and pulled him behind him. HC frowned as Drake went to where
he came in.
 You want to do it outside.
Drake stopped and stared then his lips twitched.  Not that kind of ride. Horses. Go for
a ride on horses. I saddled Ren for you. Drake continued to the door.  I Googled the names
of both your horses. One has something to do with food and other is related to nurturing
Renenutet is the Egyptian goddess of nourishment and the harvest, while Bes is an Egyptian
deity known as a protector of households. They both fit you the chef and nurturer.
 Again with the nurturer. HC scowled.
 They also have the same temperament as you. Demanding. Drake laughed as they
went outside.
