She bit the inside of her lip to keep her mind of the pain in her knee, and then watched Kyle. Why hadn't she tried that before? She had done it with all of the others...She was mad at herself now more then anything, and she let Wicked see for a moment before urging her forward. But the filly still fought. She reared up once more, and Melanie braced herself, but she didn't tumble. She wouldn't go that high anymore. She tossed her head as she landed and bounded sidewyas, jarring melanie's knee to the point where she cried out. But she stopped after a moment, and with gentle urgings from Melanie, finally walked up to the gate. Melanie stroked her softly, telling her good girl and prasing her through her tears. She filly walked slowly forward and into the gate, and Melanie halted her, praising her even more. |

She nodded, not able to think through all of this pain. She was glad he didn't notice though, for that would only cause complications. It was aching and swelling and hurting while it was bent, and she wanted to get off and straighten it, but she had to focus on what she was doing. She patted her softly.Good girl...Kyle open the gate... It was almost like she was begigng him to open it so she could get it over with and get off to take care of her knee. She stroked Wicked's neck and leaned forward, ready. |

As Wicked shot out, Melanie closed her eyes slightly. It hurt more then she had thought it would as they pounded over the track. She was crying as they went, and Wicked sensed it, so naturally she slowed. But Melanie only urged her forward, and the filly complied, going faster once more. They were controled until the end, when Melanie pushed her forward to her limits and they soon passed Kyle. Wicked was sweaty and blowing hard, but she was alright. Melanie walked her out until her breathing was normal and she was cool. She turned her back towards Kyle, making sure her face was free from tears and hiding the pain.How was it? |

Okay...just okay? It had been her fault really. She took a deep breath and then looked at him as it caught, having heard his words. She shook her head.I'm fine..I just need ice and an ace bandage...both of which I have. She told him through slightly clenched teeth. It wasn't broken, that was obvious, but it was probably torn or sprained. It would get better though. She dismounted and landed softly, favoring the knee a little bit, which had swelled up under the jeans. One could tell by just looking at it. She took a deep breath and offered him a smile, then took Wicked's reins over her head. She was extremely stubborn when it came to injuries about herself. She tried not to limp as they walked back to the barn, and she untacked Wicked and started brushing her down. Once finished, she put her in her stall and made sure she was settled, and then leaned agaisnt it for a moment, catching her breath. |

Melanie shook her head to argue, but suddenly felt him picking her up. She struggled for only a moment, but then closed her eyes and laid her head agaisnt his chest, taking comfort in his presence. He gave her the support she needed, although she would not go to the hospital. Settling on the couch softly, she rolled up the leg of her jeans. It wasn't going to work. SHe took the scissors that were on the coffee table, because she had been cutting up junk mail before, and cut the fabric clean off way above the knee, making them into shorts. Seeing it, she groaned softly.Can you get an ice pack out of the freezeer? The kitchen's through there. |

She thanked him, and then sat up straighter as he said he would take care of the horses.THe feeding amounts for each of them are on their stall doors... She said as he started walking out the door. She sat back and groaned, and saw Caleb walk in, a look of utter amazement on his face.Wicked. She snapped, and he understood. He helped her wrap up her knee, since he had taken med school when he had no idea what he wanted to do with his life, and then got the old pair of crutches out of the attic upstairs. He brought them back down.You'll need theses for about a week or two smart one. SHhe gave him a look and then put the ice pack back on. With Caleb's help, she wouldn't have to go to the hospital. She watched as he disappeared back upstairs and she sat back, waiting for Kyle, feeling useless. |
