After just a few seconds, Rose closed her eyes, biting her lip. She winced, inhaling sharply, as he rubbed over a huge knot in her right shoulder.

He murmured. "Sorry, Sugar..." and gentled his pressure, trying to work out the knot. "What are ya so tense about, hm..?"

Rose hesitated, trying to think quickly. She couldn't say it was because of her work; she worked for a huge real estate company that she was sure didn't exist back in 1949. "Family stuff," she finally said, figuring that was enough to quell his curiosity.

He nodded, glancing down at her as his fingers worked into her shoulders. "You...ya wanna talk about it..?"

Rose just shook her head, glad he couldn't see her worried expression. "What about your family? Have any brothers or sisters?" You have a younger brother named Jason.

"I gotta younger brother named Jason, and two sisters -- Mary Alice and Sarah. I'm the oldest." He let his hand play with her curls idly.

"And your parents?" Rose never learned anything about Tyler's great-grandparents. She wondered how much even he knew about them.

"Mama's name is Peggy, Daddy's is Allen. Third generation farmers, been in Russell County forever." His fingers glided through her hair. "What about you?"

"They're, uh...not around." Rose closed her eyes yet again, feeling as if she could fall asleep as he played with her hair.

He hesitated, assuming the worst, then continued. "Where are they?"

Not born yet. "They're dead," she said softly. She felt bad lying to him, but she'd already told him the truth and he hadn't believed her. Besides, it was kinda true...right?

He paused a second, frowning, feeling bad for her. "Yer on yer own, then..?" He let his fingers brush down her neck, thumbs rubbing behind her ears.

"Uh...yeah, you could say that. I, uh, ran away from home a few weeks ago. Ended up here," she said, impressed with herself for pulling that out of her ass.

He arched a brow. If you were gonna run, why the hell run here? He touched her earlobe, liking the feel of her skin. He had to shake the feeling off. "Sorry 'bout that..."

Rose just shrugged. "It's all right...not your fault, is it?"
