Previously:
We turn around towards the entrance and take a step foward. We feel a song feeling in our hearts that the elf described oh-so-clearly.
I knew what this note meant. Every challenge in life has to start with a single step.
Everything after that was a blur...
Present:
"AHHHHHHHH!!!"
Almira's POV
I wake up too a screch from the other side of the door, my sister does too. The clock on the nightstand reads 10:00.
I shoot up in my bed and face my siter, quickly I run towards the door in a panic while my sister just sitting up in her bed, rubbing her eyes, trying to wake up.
I shoot open the door to find Xavier rearing, while this little figure is cowering in front of him.
I spring into action and runs towards Xavier, tust me he only rears when hes pissed and you do NOT want him pissed, and wave my arms and yelling his name, trying to gain his attenion. It works and he lowwers to the ground.
I rush towards him and glomps his neck, glad hes back, cause when he is pissed he gets into a trance where he blocks out everything but the opposing threat aand it's scary seeing him like that.
I remove myself from his neck and stare at the person.
He has black shaggy hair, dark skin, and is wearing a brown, leather vest over a white t-shirt and also wears baggy jeans.
"What were you doing!" I scream. Ussually I quiet but when somebody messes with my horses I explode.
"I-i was walking to the beach and I saw a filly -points to Kaydia- in my way, and she walked up to me so I petted her on the head." I managed out, almost shaking in fear.
I notice his fear of me and calm down, no need to scare him off, even if he mouch my horses. What a great first impression.
"Sorry I bursted like that, it's just these horses are very dear to me and my sister and I'm sorry for Xavier's behavior too" Xavier snorts a 'dont-talk-for-me' snort."He is just over-protective of his herd." I apoligize, ignoring Xaviers snort.
"Okay, I'll accept your apoligy on one condition."
"what?"
"That you accompany me too the beach."
My face fell to the ground anime-style.
"Your kidding right?"
"Nope, I'm serious."
I sigh in defeat.
"Okay, let me get ready, I'll be a sec, but a word of advice, dont touch the horses."
"No complaints from me there"
I smile at this befoe heading into my small house.
There awaits my sister, cooking breakfast.
"Waht happen outside? I heard you yelling, and you never yell!"
"Well too shorten things, I think I just got asked out..."
"Really????? Who is it and dont miss the details!"
"The strange thing is, I dont even know who he is."
"huh??"
"Well I saw him and talked to him but I dont even know his name!"
"Oh. Well is he a least cute?"
"Well, kinda"
"Wooh! Then you go girl!! It's nice to see you found someone after what happen to Andy."
I cast my gaze to the floor.
"Well he invited me to walk with him at the beach."
"Well then go get ready! Dont worry I'll save beakfast so we can eat it and talk later."
"Okay" And with that I rushed off to get ready.
I walk out of the house, all ready to find him sitting by he side of the house, legs crossed, arms supporting him from behind him, his head tilted up, staring at the sky like it was the most interesting thing in the world.
I walk over to him and he snaps out of his trance and glues his eyes to me and lets out a low whistle.
"W-wow! you look awsome!"
I plop down next to him.
"your just saying that" I say while a slow pink tint appears on my checks.
"No, I'm not. I mean you are a very pretty girl!"
The blush on my checks grows too a rosey red.
"By the the way mister-mysterious. Whats your name?"
"Dan, yours?"
"Almira."
"Well it suits you."
"How?"
"A very pretty name for a very pretty girl"
The blush reappears on my cheeks.
"Well should we go to the beach, miss Almira?" He mocks in a fancy tone while he bows and lets out his hand.
I laugh at this and I take his hand. "Well I'd be pleasured." I mock back.
We burst out laughing, walking towards the beach, hand-in-hand. While a spying sister watches from the window.
We walk the beach, my toes squishing in the sand.
"So tell me everything about you Dan."
"Well I came form New York, but never liked it much, so I moved out here, trying to get by on what ever I can get. Your turn"
"Well I grew up in a very small town called Oakdale with Zena(the white mare back there), my sister and my mother.When I was 13 I met a wonderful guy, his name was Andy and he was perfect.4 years later me and Andy fell in love so for an adventure Me, Andy, Zena, and my sister went out and traveled America. But one day when we were in Nevada" I stop walking and stare towards the ground. Dan stops too. "Andy went off too get supplies and left me and my sister alone. We were in town and Andy took Zena with him. A military officer walked up to us and started hitting on us and saying very perverted things to us so we did the only thing we needed to do. Slapped him silly. But frankly his other officers were there and knocked us out." A single shimmering tear streams down my face."They took us somwhere. We didn't know where but it was far out. Most of the time we were knocked out because they kept giving me and my sister sleeping drugs." I crouch down into the ground and hugged my knees. "But when we were awake they did horrible things to us. To their eyes we were just toys." Tears start streaming down face endlessly. Dan notices this and pulls me into a tight hug. "A-about a week later Andy came to the Military camp on Zena. He raised havoc until he found us. He set us on Zena and slapped her butt, sending her away from the camp. But before he did that he mouthed an 'I love you' to me."I contiue, the tears never ceasing. "That night we camped out in the dangerous desert where we meet three horses. A buckskin stallion, a black as night mare and a chenut paint, all having the military brand on their hides.We figured that Andy set them free. He always had a soft spot for horses as my sister and I. We later befriended them and they are still with us today. We waited days and days around, but never close too the military base. But Andy never came..."
I full out burst, crying into Dan's shoulder while he gentally rocked me while calming me with soothing words.
Dan and I walk back to the house minutes later, holding hand-in-hand again.
Xavier spots my red and puffy eyes and gallops towards me, while sending a death glare towards Dan.
He stops an inch from my face, sending me concerd whinnies and nickers. I pat his eyes and chuckle at his over-protectiveness.
"It's all good ya big baby." He snorts at the sound of 'big baby' and puffs out his chest to prove his point.
I chuckle agian. I push him aside (NOT easy!!) and I continue to my house, Dan in tow.
I reach my door and turn towards Dan.
"I had a great time Dan, thank you, I really needed to get that of my chest." I send him a nervous chuckle and a smile while I scratched the back of my neck.
"No prob. Would you like too do it again somtime?"
"I'd love to. Drop by anytime."
