***JAKE'S POV***
Once we were in front of the shop, I helped Alex to tie off the horse and disconnect the wagon from him. Then we gave it some water and ran over to the feed mill down the street. Alex bought a small bag of oats that she could take with her to her family home and put some out for the horse to eat now.
After the horse was all set and ready to wait, she came with me into the house. I was right when I said that Jasper was probably making a feast for her. He was setting a bunch of dishes down on the table when we walked into the dining room hand in hand. He smiled at us when he saw that we were so close, and I knew that he was overjoyed about it. He must have thought that his son was never going to find anyone because he was so overprotective of him.
