Ross stared at the page in his hand and sighed. He was getting no where. He hadn't written a new poem in weeks. His fingers itched to hold a pen again, to feel the ink flow and watch as a blank page filled with his words, his thoughts, his feelings.
Alas, his writers block wasn't helping him, and it didn't want to leave either. His trained eyes scanned the horizon searching for anything that would spark an idea in his head. The deserts wide arrange of colours and open horizon didn't give him anything. He had spent countless hours staring at the horses, at the ranch and at the walls of his room. He hated this feeling, like he had the most amazing idea in his head, he just couldn't access it.
A month had gone by, and he still hadn't written anything. The writers block had become so bad that he was starting to lose sleep over it. He sat outside on the bunkhouse porch so that he wouldn't disturb Pepper or Dallas.
He glanced around the quite ranch yard before looking over to the river. There he saw the Phantom, shining silver in the moonlight. He knew that Sam would soon be out. She could almost read the mysterious creatures mind. He didn't have to wait long before the ranch house door opened and the redheaded girl came outside.
Ross watched as Sam pressed her luck with the stallion. She first approached him and then continued to climb on his back. Part of him wondered if he should tell Wyatt about what was happening, but he knew that it wouldn't stop the teen. He kept his eye on her just in case.
She stayed on the horse for only a few moments before sliding off of his back. The Phantom ran away, and she watched him leave, not knowing that Ross was observing her. As she snuck back inside, Ross smiled, and placed his pen to paper.
