Campfire conversations 3

"You know she loves you right? you are more than just some kid she found on the street; you are pretty much a king now."

Alex truly smiled at her words before replying "I know that and I'm truly grateful to your mother she showed me more love then my parents ever did in the first 16 years of my life, there's no place I'd rather be than on this ranch with you and everyone else."

she laid back down and look at the stars again. if she was being honest, she could lay here just like this forever. she pointed up to a random group of stars. "what's that one called?" she asked him.

Standing up from his chair he laid down on the ground as well making sure to give her plenty of space. When Alex was first brought to the Ranch he had yet to finish high school, as such Ms King made sure he got his GED equivalent. Since then he enjoyed reading books both fiction and nonfiction. During their hangouts Rainey often ask him different things which he would be happy to answer.

"That one right there is Aquarius it's Latin for cupbearer"He began as he looked up at the stars "in ancient Greek mythology it said that constellation represents Ganymede a young man that's Zeus grew affection for so he was brought up to Mount Olympus to serve as the cupbearer to the gods and granted eternal youth." As he continued to talk dude off and glance over to look at Rainey the side of her reminding him thought there was no place he'd rather be than right here.
