Alan held his hands up in surrender. "I'm sorry." he said sincerely, "I didn't mean to upset you. I didn't know that would do that." He moved his hand to where the sharp little elbow had slammed into his ribs. "I won't do it again, please, come back and let's get you taken care of then I'll leave you alone. If that's what you want."
He felt like such an idiot for pissing the calf off like that. And with this little misstep alone he could feel his future slipping away. And he didn't want that. He wanted to impress Cal, to earn his trust. He wanted this beautiful place to become his home.
