out of the room like that?  She had never seen a man make an exit so quick.  He was running but from what?  Sara continued to rub the salve on enjoying the way it cooled her skin.  She grabbed the tray of food and gulped it down.
         Sara gathered up the tray and took them downstairs.  She didn't see Jade anywhere.  She cleaned up the mess that he had left.  After she was finished, she looked through the house.  She couldn't find him.  She went to his room and knocked, when he didn't answer, she opened the door and looked.  Still no sight of Jade.  "Maybe he went outside."

 
     
    Chapter Four
         Sara through on some flip flops and went out looking for him.  "Jade, where are you?"
    She didn't get a reply.  Sh e went out to the horse stalls.  When she turned the corner she could see a faint light going.  She walked on out and could see a man kneeling.  It wasn't Jade.  Oh my god.  He found me.  She started backing up slowly.  She couldn't take her eyes off the door.  She felt her heart speeding faster and faster.  She came to a jolt hitting the immovable object.  Turning to see, it was Jade.
         "Sara what are you doing?"  Sara placed one finger over her lips as to silence him. 
         "There's someone out there."  Sara whispered, pulling on Jades arm to back him up.
         "I know that's Dr. Smother.  He is the vet I called out to look at Danger."  Sara stopped with Jades words and let out a sigh.  "You don't have to worry here Sara.  You’re safe."
         "What's wrong with Danger?"  She ignored his statement. 
         "He isn't eating, I don't know what it is.  I have tried everything.  I noticed earlier today he didn’t wanna eat.  When I came out to feed him againtonight, he still wouldn’t eat so I called him out."
         Jade started walking out to the stalls and Sara followed.  Jade found himself rather pleased that she wanted to tag along.  "What's the verdict doc?"
         "This one has a rough night ahead of him.  He is going to need someone to stay with him and keep an eye out.  I want to stay Jade, I really do but I got an emergency call, a cow is having trouble laboring.  I gotta go.   Just keep doing what you’re doing Jade.  I don't know anyone better with horses than you." 
         "Thanks, Doc."
         Sara watched as Jade tenderly rubbed down Danger.  I wonder if he rubs his women that way.  Stop it Sara.   "Hand me that brush would ya?"  Jade pointed over to the corner and Sara retrieved it.  "You should go ahead and go back in.  I'm gonna stay out here tonight.  Lord knows you probably couldn't handle the sleeping arrangements here, Princess."  Again Jade smiled trying to tease a smile out of her.
         "Ha, I can handle it.  And besides, what if you need something?" 
         "Then I will get it; go ahead you don't have to stay."
         "I want to, really."    
         "I thought you were scared of horses anyways Sara?"
         "I'm not scared of horses."
         "Then is it the riding that scares you?"
         "No, it’s the falling off part that doesn't settle well with me." 
         "Then hold on."
         "It’s a little harder than that."
         Jade let out a chuckle.  He found it amusing that someone so strong tempered could be afraid of falling off a horse.  He was grinning thinking of just that.  He was picturing her landing on that hot little butt of hers.
         "What's so funny?"
         "Nothing.  How did that salve do ya?"
         "It worked wonderful.  We will see in the morning though.  I fear I may have blisters anyways. 
    But it sure took the heat out of it now.  It doesn't even hurt."   Sara sounded amazed and surprised as she looked over her arms rubbing them.
         "Good, what about your back, I can put some more on it if you need me to?"
         "No, its fine."  Sara answered quicker than she wanted to and now regretted it.
