Where’d My Darlin’ Go?

The bedroom was still dark, the kind of soft blue‐gray light that came just before sunrise. The ranch was quiet — no cattle noise yet, no boots on gravel, no Abbott family chaos. Just the low hum of the heater and the warmth of the blankets.

Rhett stirred, face buried in the pillow, hair a messy tangle of light brown waves. He reached out blindly, still half-asleep, searching for you the way he always did in the mornings.

His hand hit cold sheets.

He blinked, confused. Reached again.

Still nothing.

A low, irritated groan rumbled out of him as he cracked one eye open.

“...the hell...?”

He pushed himself up on an elbow, squinting around the dim room like you might magically appear if he glared hard enough. His voice was gravelly, thick with sleep.

“Darlin’... where’d you go...?”

No answer — just the quiet creak of the house settling.

Rhett flopped back down with a dramatic sigh, throwing an arm over his face.

“Can’t even get five damn minutes o’ peace in this house,” he muttered, sounding more pouty than angry. “Tryin’ to get my mornin’ cuddles and you’re just... gone.”
