Tyler gave his horse some water, watching Abby out of the corner of his eye. He could tell there was something on her mind, with the way she kept glancing at him. Once he was done he walked over to her stall. "Hey, is there something you want to ask me? Or tell me?" He asked, tipping his head. He leaned up against the stall door, running a hand through his black hair as he waited for Ann answer

Abby shook her head slightly and gulped. then she thought, "i shouldn't be making the first move. he probably doesn't even like me. man, he's cute though..." she had never been in a real relationship and longed to have someone she loved love her back.

"Nothing? Okay then." Tyler murmured doubtfully, his handsome features turning down slightly, as he knew she's had lied. He walked back to West's stall, checking up on him before peering outside. The sun was setting, so Tyler decided to go to his cabin. He sauntered out of the barn, walking toward the little house.

Abby sighed she watched him as he left. she walked out of the barn and passed him when she ran passed the cabins toward the house. she cried the whole way then flopped onto her bed and sobbed. she got a text on her phone. "Dad..." she whispered. the text read: "you good?" she rolled her eyes and ignored it. she left the house through the front door and walked to a huge oak tree nex to the house where a gravestone sat. Abby leaned over the stone and cried more. "Mom... I need you badly..." she let all the tears out. she felt a hand on her back and she got cold and felt a shiver down her sine as she stood up and spun around and got eye to eye with her Dad. she shook her head and backed into the stone, nearly falling over. her stupid clumsiness. he grabbed her arm tightly and tugged her close to him, a wicked gleam in his eyes. she tried to scream but his massive hand covered her mouth. he gave a evil smile and she bit his finger. he cursed amd she ran to the barns as he cursed more and kicked the stone and yelled, "Abigail!" loudly. she sniffled as she opened Titanium's stall door and curling up on the stall floor. titan dropped his head and nuzzled her. she cried into his mane which muffled it. she hated her Father and he hated her back. she couldn't leave because he would just find her and bring her back one way or another. she had tried that once. it ended up in another kidnapping by his partners in crime. "why?" she whispered. "why does he do this to me?"

Tyler looked alarmed as Alexa raced past him, so he snuck around and follow her. He saw her father, and heard her scream, then ran towards the barn where he last saw her. The man was no where to be seen, but he searched the barn anyways. Once he knew her father was gone, he cried, "Abby! Where are you? It's a Tyler, please come out!" He looked panicked. Tyler had no idea why this was happening, but he knew it was bad.

Abby sniffled and poked her head out the stall door. "here" she said. she watched him, her face red from crying.

Tyler ran quickly towards where he heard the voice, peering into Titan's stall. "Are you okay?" He said breathlessly, his face a mixture of confusion and worry. He stepped into the stall, petting the barrel horse before turning his attention to the girl

she shook her head, her voice shakey when she responded "he tried to get me. he scared me. he yelled at me. he hates me" she started crying again, her eyes giving a pleading look "i can't go back in there... i can't" she watched his eyes. Titan turned and nudged Tyler towards Abby

Tyler clenched his jaw. He knew he only just met this girl, but he was angry. Angry her father was so horrible to her. "Your father likes money, right?" Tyler said stiffly

she saw his jaw and gave a frightened nod "don't hurt him... yes he is a jerk and has abused me in many ways, but... he is still my Father..." "even if he is a terrible person" she added in a mutter. Titan nudged Tyler again, shoving him toward her. Titan wanted her to have comfort that only another human could give.
