He and Matt, the boy who he had met at the park today, made there
way to the stable. As Matt had said, it wasn’t too far away from where they had been. He
looked around as he came through the parking area, his emerald green eyes surveying the
barn and the fields around him. What a long time it had been since he saw scenery like
this. Scott looked round, and waited for Matt, hoping he would take him where he needed
to go. [ ooc - bad post .. ohh well v_v ] |

Matt followed quietly, enjoying the familiar sights of the stables. Mustangs looked up from their pasture as a dog or two trotted about the stable yard.Here we are, he announced, stopping beside Scott.Crystal Stables. Which would you rather start with? The house or the stables? |

''um, the stables'' he said brightly, excited to see the horses with a child-like eagerness. He
looked around at the stables, studying everything. He looked out at the horses grazing in the
pasture, he couldn’t wait to get back to doing stable work again, and if what Matt said was true,
he'd have a place to live as well.

I should have known, he replied with a wry smile. Matt started off towards the main barn, which contained mostly Arabians, Thoroughbreds, and Egyptian Arabians.The owners, Sasha and Jen, do a lot of horse rehab. The competitors are usually in the main barn, and then there's a barn for the rehab horses, a breeding barn, and a boarder's barn. You already saw the mustangs in the pasture in front, Sasha's been working with them.
He pushed open the large door to the main barn and stood aside so that Scott could enter as well.Right now we have somwhere between 5-10 yearlings and Sasha and Lilly are doing some breeding right now. He paused, letting Scott take all this in.Where would you like to go first? |

Scott nodded and took everything that Matt said in, looking at every thing with interest as
they passed by. The horses peered curiously at the stranger as he followed Matt
around.''You can decide'' he said quietly, he stood waiting to followed again,
scuffing his shoes lightly on the floor beneath him.

Matt stopped for a moment, thinking while absentmindedly stroking a jet black mare, Anck-su-namun.I suppose we could go check out the rehab horses first, seeing as those will be the ones you're working with. Anck-su-namun pushed her nose towards Scott, inspecting him briefly. |

Lilly galloped down the trails. She was grinning, her eyes wet from the wind. She loved the surge of power she felt. her ipod was stuck in her pocket, playing 'Running' by Evermore. As the music faded, the duo slowed to a trot, then entered the stables. She dis-mounted and walked, hearing the clip clop of hooves echo through the stables mingled with voices. She smiled, recognising Billy, and som other guy.
Hey there, what's going on?

''Okay'' he said simply, looking at the horse. Scott almost cringed away when the
mare stuck her muzzle forward, but instead her tentatively allowed her to sniff his palm if
she wanted.

Lilly felt slightly hurt that she had been ignored, though lead her horse, Deal Me In, to the cross ties. There she began to untack and started to hose him down. She carefully slipped off the bridle, letting the bit fall into her hand, and tugged the heavy leather saddle unto the post. Shesmiled, and Lilly brushed off the dust, hosing the girth and saddle area.

((Billie's not here...))
Matt led the way out the doors and across the yard, into a larger stable. Here, some horses stuck their heads over their stalls while a few hung back.Some of these are ready to be put up for sale, which we'll be doing pretty soon. The other ones still need some work. A second mare, a bay Oldenburg this time, whickered to Matt.This is Hot Cocoa, one of the horses I work with. The mare nudged him, obviously looking for treats.She's kinda spoiled, Matt grinned as he offered her a carrot.You'll probably be working with the ones down at the end. They're doing a lot better than when they first came here, but haven't done a lot of riding just yet.

Lilly sweat scraed the watyer off the wet horse, ad towelk dried her. Then she started to put the tack away, before finally returning to Deal and putting him away in his stable.

Scott followed Matt on the way out of the doors, again glancing around at the yard they
walked through. As they walked into the new stable, he saw the bay horse poke her head
out of her stall, and looked at her, smiling, as she searched Matt for treats. As Matt told
him what horses he would most likely be working with, he felt a creeping of excitement
come back again, finally he was back at a stable.“Where to now?” he asked,
turning from looking at the horses, to Matt with an expectant smile.

A slim index finger tapped against his lips as he thought.Hmmm....how about the house? A moment's more thought was put into it.Yeah, let's head up there. Maybe we'll see someone. Once more, Matt set off across the stable yard, this time towards the driveway. As they reached the front door, he dug through his pocket for the house key and unlocked it. He entered the tiled foyer and held the door open for Scott, taking off his shoes while doing so.

Lilly heard them leave, and walked Deal out to the parsture, watching him canter off to his friends. Then she wandered back into the barn, putting everything away and sweeping the aisles. She did the same for the other barns, cheacking everything was done and tidy.

Scott thought he had heard someone sweeping up in the barn somewhere, but he couldn’t
be sure so he only took a glance as he followed Matt to the house, but didn’t see anyone.
As the environment changed, he looked around at the area, then at the house as they came
closer and went inside. Following by Matt's example, Scott removed his shoes and left
them neatly by the wall, not really being an untidy kind of person.“You get to live
here?..” Scott said as he looked around him in wonder, he boy couldn’t remember the
last time he ever saw a house so big, after spending so much time in the city he was used
to small cramped houses.
