Date Posted:09/23/2018 6:13 PMCopy HTML Ashlynn had been working out in the stables. It was her job to take care of the horses. She had been in the family now for a few years. Besides Charles she was the longest employee to be at the property. Most couldn't take working with Henry. His strick rules , and his temper often scared people away. Though Ashlynn didnt' have an issue with his rules, and felt they were good for taking care of the horses. He also never shown his bad side to her. Though the big reason she didn't want to leave was his children. She just adored them all, especially his son. The all had taken to her as well, as the girls were often going to her for homework help and fashion advice. Edward would spend nearly every night with her after he was out of school, helping her feed the horses. She just really enjoyed it. Tonight was a little different than most nights. It had been storming really bad. Kids had come home early from school to get ready for the storm, and were safe and sound inside. Ashlynn was out rounding up the horses, as she had them in the barn. Charles and Henry were brining in the sand bags to block the rain from coming in. They had been working for a couple days to get ready for the storm. They even had the trailers ready just in case the horses had to be moved to his other property. "Ashlynn"- The horses are all bedded, and calmed for the night. She said in hopes that the storm wouldn't be that bad and everything would be just fine, but she agreed about being prepared just in case. Henry even had the family vehicle ready, just in case he needed to get the children out as well. She liked that he was so ready for anything. She looked to see if there was anything else that he was wanting her to do. |

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 6:27 PMCopy HTML Henry kissed her cheek.
"Thank you. I really do appreciate you staying to help. I don't think Charles and I could have done it without you."
He looked around the barn.
"I want the back doors left unlocked. If things get bad and we aren't able to get to the horses, they can escape to the hills through that door. We may lose a few, but shouldn't lose them all. Hopefully things don't get that bad though.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 6:31 PMCopy HTML Ashlynn nodded as she looked at him thinking about it. She was hoping they wouldn't lose any, but she would be prepared to help out in any way that she was able.
Ashlynn: Alright.
She said as she went back unlocking the back doors. She didn't push them open, leaving them closed, as it would be easy enough to open up if they had to. She checked everything else out in the stable making sure everything else was set and good to go.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 7:04 PMCopy HTML Henry looked around making sure everything that could hurt or kill the horses was put away safely.
"You come to the house with us. It will be safer there. Plus Edward would be uncontrollable with worry if he knew you were out there or somewhere else."

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 7:09 PMCopy HTML She looked at him as she thought about it a moment, a bit worried about leaving the horses, but he took her hand and lead her out of the stables. As she followed after a moment. She took a breath as they walked up as she looked up at the sky. It was going to get bad.
||Ashlynn||- I have extra flash lights and a first aid in my truck if we need it.
she said as she knew he was prepared but she did have a little extra just in case it was needed as she liked to be prepared as well. She followed him up into the house as he held the door for her.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 8:38 PMCopy HTML He knew the house was well stocked and there was gas in the generator and more in a safe place.
"Inside, Ashlynn."
They saw Edward waiting inside the door for them.
"You are supposed to be with ntyour sisters."
"I know, Daddy. I was worried though. The storm is getting so loud."
Henry picked up his son and carried him into the safe room he had prepared for everybody to ride out the storm in. It was waterproof and wind proof. The rest of the house could collapse around them, but they would be safe.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 8:40 PMCopy HTML She followed as she scooped up Edwards Puppy as it was trying to keep up with Henry and Edward. She went with the rest of them to the safe room as she looked around a bit. He showed her the camera hook up so they could also keep an eye on the horses as she smiled nodding as she then hugged Edward when he ran over to her after Henry put her down.
Ashlynn: It's going to be okay, just some rain.
She assured him as she rubbed his back as she was listening to Henry talk.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 8:47 PMCopy HTML Even thought the kids did not watch much television, Henry had gotten them all portable DVD players and headphones. He knew it would help block out the sounds of the storm and distract them.
He got Edward's set up for him and handed it to Ashlynn. He knew his son wasn't going to leave her side. He didn't blame him. It was where he wanted to be also, but at the moment, there were more important things to take care of then his dick and where he wanted to put it.
"There's a bathroom behind that door there. It's very small, but when your bladder is empty, you will be thankful for it."
He pointed to the boxes of foods and water.
"I think we'll be okay in here."

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 8:50 PMCopy HTML She helped Edward with his portable DVD player as she was listening to Edward talk as she nodded her head a bit. She had Edward all snuggled into a sleeping back next to her as he looked content and cozy. With the puppy in one hand and his stuffed dino on the other side and the little screen in the center as he was watching a dinosaur cartoon. Everyone looked set and happy, Ashlynn kept an eye on everyone, and looking to the screen with the horses, seeing they all looked calm and fine as well as she was glad to see that.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 9:16 PMCopy HTML Henry kept an eye on the cameras that he had set up around the property. He was worried about the flooding on the land. He remembered it from when he was a child. He had lost his brother, Arthur, to those floods. He had been Edward's age then. Arthur had been married a few months shy of a year. His wife was due to give birth to their child at any time.
He looked over at Mary. She was so much like Arthur. He would have adored her if he had been able to see her born and grow. Losing her mother just a few months later...
He shook his head. That was the past. He needed to focus on protecting them now. Mary knew the truth about her parentage, but still chose to call him her father. He had taken care of her from the time he first married at 15 years old. Mary had been only 4 at that time. Very few people knew the truth of their relationship. They wanted it to remain that way.
He saw her looking at him and he smiled at her. She had grown into a young woman that Arthur and Katherine would be very proud of. She had her mother's beauty and her father's intelligence.
He looked over at Elizabeth and sighed. How he could have ever doubted her paternity is beyond him. She looked more like him than her mother's brother.
He smiled when he looked at his son. The pup was licking his chin making the boy giggle.
He looked over at Ashlynn and caught her eye. He silently mouthed the words, "I love you" to her. He pointed to the bathroom hoping she would realize he was wanting her to follow him.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 9:57 PMCopy HTML She saw him point to the bathroom as she waited a moment, getting up as she saw Edward was all relaxed and good. She slowly followed him as they went into the bathroom. She looked as she waited to see what he was wanting as she smiled warmly.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 10:29 PMCopy HTML He smiled and put his hands on her waist. The room was very small so it was a tight fit for the two of them to be in there.
"I just wanted a few minutes alone with you."
He looked down at her.
"You doing okay?"

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/23/2018 10:46 PMCopy HTML He lowered his head and kissed her very softly.
"I could think of ways to distract you if you would like me to."
He kissed her again.
"I really would not mind."

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/24/2018 12:00 AMCopy HTML He slid his hands down to her ass and pulled her closer.
"I'm sorry that all of this has postponed the wedding. As soon as everything is back to normal, we can get married like we planned."
He smiled softly at her.
"I am looking forward to that day."

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/24/2018 12:05 AMCopy HTML She thought about it, as she wasn't upset about it, she knew that this was important and she wanted to make sure that everyone and the animals were safe though. She kissed him softly.
Ashlynn: It's alright, I understand. We can get back to the plans as soon as all of this is over with.
She said thinking about it, knowing it wasn't a big deal as they could still work on it, and a little waiting wasn't too bad.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/24/2018 12:09 AMCopy HTML He started to kiss her again, hoping to get a bit more than kissing done, but a small knock on the bottom half of the door told them that Edward was needing their attention.
He sighed and smiled. "Our son..."

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/25/2018 12:31 AMCopy HTML Henry saw Mary watching them and smiled. She was old enough to know what was going on between them. He was glad she loved Ashlynn.
He slid an arm around Ashlynn's waste and kissed her cheek.
"We've been busted."

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/25/2018 1:18 PMCopy HTML "You two get a room."
They heard a voice from the bathroom.
"But not the bathroom."
They laughed at Mary and Edward. Elizabeth saw them all laughing and took off her headphones.
"What's so funny?"

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/25/2018 10:32 PMCopy HTML She smiled a bit shaking her head as they settled back in settling in for the night storm. She covered back up next to Edward when he came and laid back down with her, as she snuggled up some with him. She was glad that it wasn't too bad as morning came and there was no real damage to the stables or the fence. The flood waters never came up high enough.
Ashlynn: I'm glad there was no damage.
She smiled as she was outside with Henry checking everything out.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/25/2018 11:19 PMCopy HTML Henry took Ashlynn's hand in his and kissed it softly.
"We were very lucky, my love. It seems to be that way a lot since you came into my life."
He let her hand go and helped with the clean up. It was a lot of work, but it could have been worse.
"We may not have to postpone the wedding after all. I believe that our friends and family could do with such a joyous event."

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/27/2018 12:47 AMCopy HTML Ashlynn looked at him as she was thinking about it. It was fine with her if he wanted to go on with the wedding. There was almost no damage around here, so it wouldn't take a lot of work to get things ready.
Ashlynn: I think you are right, love.
She said as she smiled warmly thinking about it.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/27/2018 12:08 PMCopy HTML Henry put the last of the branches on the burn pile and smiled.

He looked over at Ashlynn and smiled.
"What do you think, my love?"

She smiled warmly thinking about it. She walked in as he held the door open for her as she lightly touched his arm as she walked in. They took their boots off as he helped her out of her coat. The two then walked into the kitchen to work on lunch.

Re:Getting ready for the storm. Date Posted:09/30/2018 12:31 PMCopy HTML Normally Henry had a cook, but he had given the entire staff time off because of the storm.
"Remind me after we eat to check on everybody. I want to make sure everybody is okay and see how much time they need off to recover from the storm."
He knew that the storm had hit harder in other places than it had where they were. He knew some of his staff lived in the harder hit areas.
He handed her the plates one at a time.
"Kids! It's time to eat. Get your hands washed please."
