Ryker chuckled slightly as Abby ran off, then walked up to Martin. "Thank you again for watching over all the horses." He said.

Martin practically whacked Ryker on the back with a wide grin. "My pleasure! It was quite entertaining, actually, a good break from my normal boring life!" He man answered cheerfully.

Ryker huffed slightly - welcome to the show, new bruise. "Yeahhhh. You do realize you're a- oh nevermind."

Abby walked back into the barn. "Hello good sirs" she was hyper now that she was back. She leaned on Rykers arm. She was internally tired, but no one would know that unless they knew her VERY well. She usually hid tiredness. "Vegas was so fun!" She grinned at Ryker.

Ryker glanced at Abby as she walked in. Usually when she was super hyper that meant she was tired, but she had two kinds of hyper. He glanced into her eyes and confirmed she was tired. Of course she was. It had been a long week. "It was." He agreed.

Martin glanced at the two with a smile. "It was splendid being here but I have to run before it gets too late and I fall asleep. I'll see you both soon!" The last part sounded more like a command. Then Martin left.

"Bye Martin!" As soon as she heard him driving away she collapsed against Ryker. "Ahh. It's so good to be home" she yawned. "I'm awake. I'm awake" she sat up she pried her eyes open. "Ok. Maybe only kinda" she grabbed Rykers hand and gave him a squeeze. "I really hope baby loves horses. Actually... baby won't have a choice! It's going to be born riding horses" she gazed up at her wonderful husband.

Ryker smiled a little and put an arm around her, again just to make sure she didn't collapse. "The baby will love horses. And you don't have to be awake. Let's go inside. The horses will be fine for tonight, " He said quietly, shutting off the barn lights.

She nodded and silently walked beside Ryker, just enjoying his company. "I love you Ryker. You are going to be the best Dad in the world"

Ryker glanced down at Abby with a soft smile. "I love you too. And you're going to be better than the best mom in the world." He answered, opening the door and heading inside. After turning on a lamp in the bedroom he quickly got changed into what he usually slept in, i.e., just softer pants and no shirt. He had discovered it was much for comfortable sleeping without a shirt.

Abby smiled as the walked. She changed into a spaghetti strap and some shorts. She crawled under the covers and waited for her furnace to get in too. Her eyes lids were already dropping by the time she had gotten comfortable

Ryker made sure everything was locked up before climbing into bed with a content sigh. "Have a good night, Abby." He murmured quietly, already dropping off.

"I'll try" she answered before curling up beside him and falling asleep before he did.
Abby woke up as soon as the sun did, her brain already swirling with thoughts
