Falling for Bentley (Part One) Read Online Free PDF

“Haley, will you do me the honorable privilege of riding a quad with me?”
    “There will be none of that. Travis, get up.” Bentley announced.
    “I guess you heard the dragon,” I nodded towards Bentley. “I can ride myself.” Walking over I patted the quad seat, “I think I can handle her.”
    “Fair enough,” agreed Travis, snickering at his brother.
    “Shut up and get on the damn quad, Travis,” Bentley ordered.
    I told the boys to go ahead and I’ll follow behind shutting the gates as we go. I hopped on the quad and started it up. Putting on my work gloves, I saw Bentley walk up.
    “Push back, Haley.”
    “Why?” I challenged.
    “You are riding with me.”
    “No, I’m not,” I replied snippy.
    “Haley.”
    “Bentley.”
    “Haley, move back,” he tried demanding again.
    “No. If you want to get on, then you are riding with me. Hop on the back and don’t touch me,” I growled.
    “Fine,” he said as he threw one leg behind me to get on.
    On the way to the back quarter I made sure I hit every damn hole, fast.
    “Haley, slow down, it’s not exactly comfy sitting on these bars.”
    I hit another big hole, laughing to myself, “What? I didn’t hear you.”
    Bentley leaned down to my ear, “You are busting my balls.”
    I slowed down, “Sorry.” I snickered.
    “I’m sure you are,” he ground out between gritted teeth.
    I drove the rest of the way with a huge smile on my face.
    We finally got to the start of the fence line and the boys were lined up against Mack’s truck, waiting for my directions.
    “Okay, boys, let’s do this.” I clapped my gloves together, “I’ll start the first wire and Cody can string out the line. The rest of you can staple as we go. We are doing a four wire fence, but with all of us, we should get a good portion of it done today, and whoever comes out tomorrow will finish it.”
    The boys were a great help, they took out everything we needed and set it up. I was just about ready to start the wire when Bentley tried pushing me out of the way.
    “What are you doing?” I demanded, holding on tight to the fence stretcher, as Bentley tried to take it out from my hands.
    “Starting the fence.”
    “I know. I’m doing it.” I tugged back.
    “Look, I can get it tighter than you. Just give me the fence stretcher,” Bentley instructed.
    “Fence stretcher what?” I challenged, holding it still between us.
    “Haley, please give my pig-headed brother the fence stretcher,” called out Travis.
    “I’d be delighted to Travis,” I replied in my kindest voice, shoving the stretcher into Bentley’s chest before walking away. Grabbing a hammer and a pail of nails I walked my way down the fence line.
     

     
    “DAMN, IT’S SO hot out today,” Bo said, taking off his wife-beater and wiping the sweat off his forehead.
    “I know, man. I’m surprised we aren’t melting,” replied Cullen.
    “Twilight, vampire’s don’t melt, they sparkle in the sun,” teased Bo, trying to take off Cullen’s t-shirt, “Come on, Cullen let’s see you sparkle.”
    Cullen shoved him back, “Fuck off, Bo.”
    The boys started laughing, cheering Bo on.
    “All right, boys, let’s stop and see what’s in the cooler,” I offered. “Since everyone is picking on Cullen, he can sit with me and pick the first drink out of the cooler.”
    “Thanks, Haley,” muttered Cullen.
    “No worries, Twilight,” I laughed.
    Rolling his eyes, Cullen dug in the cooler, “Is this Mrs. Wells’ sweet tea?”
    “It is,” I winked.
    “Awesome,” he said, excitedly opening the lid and downing half of it.
    “Any more in the cooler?” asked JJ, “I love her sweet tea. She makes the best in church.”
    “Nope, I just saw the one bottle in the fridge,” I shrugged, downing a bottle of water.
    An hour later, I was done, so I told the boys it was a wrap for the day. “Thanks, guys, for all your help. I can’t believe how much we got done today.”
    “I’d say another two hours tomorrow
