Summary: \u00a0<\/span>This story started out as what I thought would be a touching story between Adam and Ben but this is what it came out as. It has to do with blue ribbons and what they are awarded for and to who.<\/p>\n

Adam quickly got up to answer the door. Maybe his father had changed his mind about spending this evening in town.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdam who is it? Is it pa?\u201d Joe was on his way up the steps when the knock came.<\/p>\n

\u201cI won\u2019t know Joe until I answer the door.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo answer it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adam swung the door open. \u201cRoy? Is everything alright?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything is fine Adam. May I have a word with you?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSure.\u201d<\/p>\n

Roy caught sight of Joe. \u201cOutside.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIs it pa Roy? Cause if it is it concerns me and Hoss too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI can hear Hoss is real concerned\u2026\u201d as Hoss\u2019 snores drifted down the stairs. \u201c\u2026and if I thought it concerned you I\u2019d let you know.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJoe just let me hear what Roy has to say.\u201d<\/p>\n

********<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is it Roy?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t believe I\u2019m going to say this but I need you to come and get your father.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGet pa?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy is he hurt?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo he\u2019s drunk.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy pa?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes your pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAre you sure?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI know your pa and I know drunk and he\u2019s both.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOkay Roy I\u2019ll be right there.\u201d
\n********<\/p>\n

Joe saw his brother stumble in slightly stunned and strap on his gun. \u201cIs it pa?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s okay Joe.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThen where are you going?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s fine Joe.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThen I\u2019m coming with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think he\u2019d want you to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe just wouldn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy? I\u2019m not a kid Adam and if pa’s hurt I can help.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s not hurt Joe he\u2019s drunk.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDrunk? My pa?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes your pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

A wicked grin lit Joe\u2019s face. \u201cI\u2019m coming with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo you’re not. Pa wouldn\u2019t want you to see him like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI know but why should you be the only one to get to see this.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s just one of the benefits to being the oldest.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOkay but you better give him a stern lecture on the evils of drinking.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll leave that for you. Lord knows you\u2019ve heard it enough to have it memorized.\u201d<\/p>\n

********<\/p>\n

\u201cThere he is.\u201d Roy pointed towards one of the cells.<\/p>\n

Adam approached the cell his father was sitting in.<\/p>\n

\u201cADAM! Son how you doin\u2019?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBetter then you pa.\u201d Adam could count on the fingers of one hand the number of times he saw his father like this and probably on both the number of times his father had been like this.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m glad your here son. Maybe you can help me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to help you pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGood then tell this old man I got me a date.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat?\u201d Adam was sure he\u2019d heard wrong.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou see.\u201d Roy gave Adam a look he\u2019d often seen him give his father.<\/p>\n

\u201cPa let\u2019s go home.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHome? No I got me a date.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOkay pa. We\u2019ll talk about it at home.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know son you\u2019re way too uptight. What you need is a woman to help you relax.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa let\u2019s get you home.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo. A man\u2019s got his needs Adam even a man my age. Don\u2019t think I don\u2019t hear all the talk\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa.\u201d<\/p>\n

“\u2026those girls sayin\u2019 how skilled my boys are.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPA.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI must admit I wasn\u2019t too surprised you being my boys and all but some things I\u2019ve heard I didn\u2019t quite understand. Maybe you can explain them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPA!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLook Roy it\u2019s Adam! Ain\u2019t he a handsome boy.\u201d Ben reached over and pinched his son\u2019s cheeks.<\/p>\n

\u201cPa please let\u2019s go home.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I told you I got me a date.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA date with whom.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cClementine.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat explains the drinking.\u201d Adam figured that if his father had gotten cornered into asking Clementine Hawkins on a date he would need a drink or two.<\/p>\n

\u201cOr maybe the drinking explains the date.\u201d Roy thought the only way Ben would have asked the widow Hawkins on a date would have been drunk.<\/p>\n

\u201cPa trust me you\u2019d rather come home with me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNO!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAt least now we know where Joe gets that scowl from.\u201d Roy had seen it on the youngest Cartwright a number of times.<\/p>\n

\u201cI got me a date.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adam was doing his best to keep from laughing. \u201cPa how about I get you a different date. One that won\u2019t try to hog tie and brand you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnother date?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes pa another date.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA real pretty one?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah pa a real pretty one.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAdam what are you doing?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf my father wants a date I\u2019m going to get him one but I won\u2019t let it be Clementine Hawkins. I just can\u2019t see me calling her ma.\u201d<\/p>\n

********<\/p>\n

They were greeted in the parlor of the house by a group of very lovely women.<\/p>\n

\u201cHello Adam.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHello Betty.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou here with your father?\u201d Lois had seen Adam and his brothers come together but never had she seen any of them come with their father.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy pa says he has needs.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell we know all about those needs. Why not let me satisfy them for you.\u201d Lois took Ben\u2019s hand and let him to the stairs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy don\u2019t the rest of you take care of my son, my treat.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa there\u2019s five women here.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou heard your father Adam.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOh stop complaining son. From the things I\u2019ve heard you\u2019ve done it before.\u201d
\n********<\/p>\n

When Ben woke up the following morning it felt like the biggest battle of every war was being fought inside his head. He really didn\u2019t feel like getting up but he had to know just what had happened and if his sons knew. He threw off the covers and saw something that really confused him.<\/p>\n

********<\/p>\n

\u201cGood morning pa.\u201d Adam refrained from looking at his father afraid he wouldn\u2019t be able to hide the grin.<\/p>\n

\u201cNot so loud Adam.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa you should know that drinking never solved any man\u2019s problems it only compounds them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJoseph I know the lecture, I\u2019ve given it to you more times then I can count.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is extremely disheartening for me to not see you follow your own advice. Come on Hoss we got work to do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ben waited until the door had closed behind his two youngest sons. \u201cHe\u2019s not going to let me forget this is he.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNot for quite a while but can you blame him?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI suppose not.\u201d<\/p>\n

An uneasy silence fell between father and son. One that lasted for a while.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdam you came and got me didn\u2019t you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes I did pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019ve done if for me. Pa I\u2019m not going to ask why but I am going to warn you to stay clear of Widow Hawkins for a while.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe may be upset that you missed your date with her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDate? I don\u2019t recall make any date with Clementine.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cGood. Then you were drunk when you made it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat does that mean.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa Mrs. Hawkins is a fine woman but I don\u2019t think I could ever see myself calling her ma.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCould it have gotten that far?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa with as drunk as you were she could have had you in front of a preacher and consummating the marriage long before you sobered up.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSpeaking of consummating may I ask you what this is.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adam took the paper from his father. \u201cYou didn\u2019t have enough cash so she gave you a bill and if I recall you signed a promissory note.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis much for one girl.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo six.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSIX!? Adam if I had to satisfy six women I\u2019d be dead. I am not that young anymore.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s nice to know you once were, but actually only one was for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cReally?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was your idea and your treat.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ben sat there mulling this new information over and over. He thought of many things. He tried to focus on the many topics to lecture Adam on, but why was ‘that\u2019s my boy’ keep pushing its way to the forefront.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaybe you can explain these to me.\u201d Ben held up the two blue ribbons he\u2019d found tied to a most odd place.<\/p>\n

\u201cGood for you pa you got two.\u201d Adam figured that wasn\u2019t exactly what his father was asking. \u201cYou know what a blue ribbon means don\u2019t you pa? It means what it\u2019s been tied to has been deemed the best by the judge.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI see and just how often is the blue ribbon awarded?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom what I understand whenever the lady, or judge if you prefer, comes upon what she feels is a specimen worthy of one.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI see and the winning\u2026.specimen can win multiple times?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSure pa. Multiple times for multiple\u2026I got myself twelve last night alone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTwelve?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSure two from three and three from two. I know those two ladies a little better then the other three. Besides I was getting tired and it was late when we started out.\u201d Adam saw a puzzled look appear on his fathers face.\u00a0 “What\u2019s wrong pa?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve seen these ribbons in not only your room but your brother\u2019s as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI would hope so. Of course those twelve from last night are now the most ever in one evening beating Hoss\u2019s eight.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHOSS?!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell yeah pa he is your son too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNot Joe?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, Hoss beat Joe\u2019s and mine\u2019s tie of seven. Wait till I tell them it\u2019s now twelve.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow pa? Well the ladies seem to enjoy my fingers just as much\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNO! Not how? But how?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow what pa?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow could I have not seen this going on right under my own nose.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe didn\u2019t want you to see it and even if you had you didn\u2019t want to.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI see. So that time when you were seventeen\u2026SEVENTEEN!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou mean when I told you I took Betsy Sue\u2019s ribbons?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow that she had three ribbons makes more sense.\u201d<\/p>\n

********<\/p>\n

Hoss and Joe were finally home for the mid-day meal and Adam found it to be a welcome interruption for once.<\/p>\n

\u201cHey Adam what\u2019s wrong with pa?\u201d Joe made sure to keep his voice low.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe got his first two ribbons last night.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWHAT?\u201d Joe kept his voice as low as he could.<\/p>\n

\u201cPA?\u201d Hoss couldn\u2019t believe it.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah and I got twelve.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTwelve? In one night?\u201d Joe knew Adam must be joshing.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah come on Adam you would a killed the girl with twelve.\u201d It never entered Hoss\u2019s mind that it should have the same effect on Adam.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere were five girls, pa paid for them and thanks for the concern for me Hoss.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa musta been real drunk.\u201d Hoss thought to not only go into a place like that but to have paid for five for Adam.<\/p>\n

\u201cBoys I\u2019d like to discuss something with you.\u201d<\/p>\n

All eyes turned to their father.<\/p>\n

\u201cWay to go pa you got two.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJoseph this is no trivial matter.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cCourse not pa two ribbons is real good. Most men don\u2019t even get one. You know how most of those ladies are well kind a hard to please seeing how they do it so often. They say they get kind of numb to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI did not need details Joseph. What I would like to know is how long has this been going on. I know Adam was seventeen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat ain\u2019t true pa. That\u2019s just when they started giving out the ribbons and I heard tell that it was all because of Adam that they started. Those four were the first ever awarded.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFour? I only saw three.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI used one to tie around your birthday present that year pa. I was only five.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll return it to you Adam.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s okay pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo Joseph when did you earn your first ribbon?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa what kind of a thing is that to ask.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJOSEPH.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was seventeen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI see and you Hoss?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAw pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHOSS.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSixteen.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou started younger then your brothers?!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhoa, wait a minute pa. It takes a little experience before a man can do that to a woman. It don\u2019t always happen the first time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDid for me and from what I hear Adam too. Only they wasn\u2019t given away ribbons then.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHoss I don\u2019t think that\u2019s what pa wanted to hear.\u201d Adam wondered why did his brother\u2019s always dig the holes they were in deeper and why did they insist on dragging him in with them.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would a got one at sixteen too but I only got to go two times that year, remember. To make it worse the second time was with Emmy and she never gave out ribbons.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe gave me two I think.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah Adam and she gave me one.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf I\u2019d of gotten to go to town more I\u2019d a got a ribbon at sixteen too.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSTOP THIS! This is not something to joke about!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

Suddenly they all noticed a strange look come over their father\u2019s face. \u201cWhy you snake.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat hurt pa. It was me who told her to tie two on. Those two younger sons of yours wanted it to be only one.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI see. Then those ribbons were really from Betsy Sue.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes and Joe really did take one to use on your present which is why there was only three.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd your brothers?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAdam would give them to us whenever we did something real well. Like school work or chores.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou never told me about this Adam.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI know how you don\u2019t like to reward us for doing things that we should but\u2026I hope you\u2019ve learned your lesson pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWait you told her to tie two on?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNot everything was a lie pa. You have the bill for the girls don\u2019t you?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThen there really were six of them?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYes but you only owe for the one you were with. I told the other five you were going to pay for for me that I wouldn\u2019t possibly be able to treat them as they deserved to be what with it being so late and me being as tired as I was.\u201d<\/p>\n

Again Ben thought, ‘that\u2019s my boy’. \u201cYou know Adam you are going to be one hell of a father.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI learned from the best.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t believe I fell for it. Ribbons.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s such a bad idea. Maybe I\u2019ll suggest it to the girls.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou will do no such thing Joseph.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPa why don\u2019t you go lay down for a while.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat, Adam is the first good thing you\u2019ve said.\u201d<\/p>\n

********<\/p>\n

\u201cYou think we should tell him?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAre you kidding Hoss?! We got away with it and you want to tell him.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI just don\u2019t like lying to pa.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHoss we\u2019re not lying we\u2019re just sparing him from something he would rather not know. Joe that was real good. Me giving you ribbons for doing good work.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI can think on my feet as well Adam. I\u2019m just surprised he fell for it. I mean you were always harder on us about responsibilities the he ever was.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLike I said he doesn\u2019t want to know this truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHey Adam what about those five girls that pa don\u2019t think he owes for any more.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI guess I\u2019ll have to pay for them myself. I better go do that and explain this all to them before pa goes and tries to pay for only one\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLet me go. If I get an early enough start I just might beat those twelve.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou got the money to pay for the five girls from last night?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo but I got enough for two or three for myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou go on little brother. Just tell them I\u2019ll be in to settle pa\u2019s bill.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joe was out of the door with a whoop.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy you letting him go?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHoss I\u2019m tired and a little sore.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know one day pa is gonna find out the first truth was the true truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI must be real tired.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI actually understood that. Don\u2019t worry Hoss pa doesn\u2019t want to know this truth so I\u2019m not too worried he\u2019ll be looking for it. What does worry me is that one of these days that little brother of ours will beat us and I don\u2019t look forward to hearing him brag endlessly on about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHow can he beat us when you got all them extra ribbons hidden away somewhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat extra ribbons?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou mean to tell me you actually got twelve last night.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAll tied up pretty and neat as you please.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey all fit?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll have you know they not only fit but there was plenty of room to spare.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSorry brother. I didn\u2019t mean to hurt your pride.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s the family pride I\u2019m trying to uphold. Now wake me when it\u2019s supper time.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSure thing older brother.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know little brother if I wasn\u2019t so tired I\u2019d come over there and teach you some respect for your elders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Summary: \u00a0This story started out as what I thought would be a touching story between Adam and Ben but this is what it came out as. It has to do with blue ribbons and what they are awarded for and to who. \u00a0<\/p>\n
