'Lasso' - Phoenix

Rob sat on the hood of his car, a half drunk cup of coffee nursed in his hands as he stared at a couple of cows standing under a tree in the paddock across the road. Home from his posting in Iraq yet again, and back in Littlerock. The only problem was, it didn't feel like 'home' anymore. In fact, being in the town alone where everyone seemed to know everyone else had aggravated him so much, he got in his car and just drove, finding himself halfway between Littlerock and the next town over before he stopped the car on the side of the road and got out for some fresh air. It was a quiet country road which saw little traffic and was hugged between surrounding paddocks of nearby farms. It was peaceful, and peace was what he needed to try and isolate some of the thoughts swirling around in his head.

Apparently Ellie was still 'out of town', according to an old friend of Rob's parents. It took all of Rob's self-control not to snort and respond with 'Thank fuck'... )
