SHe smiled gently at his words and nodded with a smile.Sure...come on. She urged and turned on her heel. A slight limp was still evident in her step, but she was doing her best to hide it. Sighing softly, she went to the stall that held the nameplate Melanie's Treasure. She smiled in at the yearling and grabbed the halter. She went in, murmuring softly to the black filly. But Treasure didn't want the halter. She put up a fuss, kicking out and rearing slightly, whiyynig shrilly. Melanie let her get some of her energy out, and when she least expected it, she slid the leather piece on, clipping it and putting the leadline on.Come on girl... She persisted and pulled gently at first, praising her when she walked forward. But then Treasure started pulling back. Melanie went forward quickly, from the force of the pull. She braced herself and pulled back, trying to get her used to the feel of it.

She looked up as he spoke, part of the leadline braced over her good leg. She furrowed her brow at his words and shook her head.She's only a yearling Kyle..I'm not going to ride her until she's two. She explained, wondering why he had thought she was going to ride the young filly. She shrugged to herself and then isntantly stopped the pressure when Treasure stopped pulling. Going closer to her, she laid a hand on her neck.Good girl Treasure...it's not going to hurt you. She whispered gently and then asked her to walk forward. Treasure went easily this time, staying close to Melanie.

She furrowed her brow slightly and then wondered if she had made him upset. Looking down, she returned Treasure to her stall and then decided Jasper could use some exercise. She patted the filly and then put her helmet on, wrapped the black and white paint's legs, and then put his bridle on. She led him to the ring where Kyle and his horse was, and led him through, closing the gate behind him. He spooked slightly, because he was blind in his right eye.Easy boy...you're alright..it's just the gate. She patted his neck softly and then hopped up, swinging her leg over. She settled and asked him to walk.

Kyle keeped a eye on Melaine in case she fell and if she did he would run his horse over and make the horse jump.

She felt as if he thought she was a bad rider because of that one fall with the filly back at the gate. That had been a freak accident...it hadn't been her fault that the young horse had flipped over when she reared. She sighed softly and urged Jasper forward into a trot. She looked over at Kyle, then back to where she was supposed to be looking.. Jasper threw up his head and sidestepped as a small breeze kicked up, blowing some dried elaves into his path. She sat easily, her legs clinging to his sides. She put her hand on his neck, soothing him gently. She asked him to move forward and he complied, feeling silly.

She looked over as he ran into the barn and shook her head slightly. Urging Jasper into a trot, he went willingly, and she sat to him, bouncing just a little, but then settling. Once he was warmed up, she asked him for a canter, and he went happily, liking the faster pace. She soon slowed him, and her attention was drawn over to the mare and foal being led out of the barn.Kyle?

As he spoke, she looked at him in surprise. She shook her head slightly. She couldn't take his foal. She spoke up to argue.But Kyle..she's gorgeous...She should be yours. Her voice was soft and gently, and she waited for his reply patiently.

"Well I will train it and You can train it to jumping how does that work because I don't need a arabian foal for jumping and You need it for jumping."he loved to the foal but it was good as hers because blackie was hers.

While he spoke, she furrowed her brow slightly, and was about to shake her head. But if it was owned by both of them, it wouldn't be so bad. She smiled slightly and nodded.Alright...but she's mostly yours. What's her name?

She took a deep breath as he spoke and thought about a name. Her sire's name was Dressed in Black...and she wasn't sure what her dam's was. So she would go from Blackie's. She thought for a moment and then came up with a fairly good one.What about BLack's Harmony... She wondered outloud and waited for his reply.
