"Hey what happened to your better half?" Kaiya asked when she saw Hikaru walk out of the house by himself.
"You mean Kaoru?" asked Hikaru as the two walked off together.
"Well I can't think of a better half of you then him," said Kaiya.
"He said something about wanting to go see Elaina and keep her company," said Hikaru.
"Really?" said Kaiya looking up at house, "I hope he doesn't want to get too cozy."
"Kaoru wouldn't do that."
"Would you?" asked Kaiya.
"I'd like to think I wouldn't, unless the girl was tempting enough."
"Pervert," said Kaiya giving Hikaru a playful push.
"So over here we have some of our Lipizzaner horses," said Belle leading the group to one of the many different pastures.
"Oh wow they're so pretty," said Maria.
"Here let me call one over. A lot of our horses respond to clicks," said Belle as made a click sound with her tongue. One of the horses immediately ran over to them.
"Hi big boy, this is Tristan. He's actually the grandson of the first horse my father ever had," said Belle gently rubbing his nose.
"May I pet him?" asked Aiko and Hunny. Both giggled again at their mimicking.
"Sure just be gentle," said Belle.
"Isn't here some sort of famous riding school with these kinds of horses?" asked Haruhi.
"You mean the Spanish Riding school in Austria?" said Belle, "Yeah Elaina and I have been there several times back when we were living in France."
"Over here we have some of our appaloosa horses," said Belle giving a clicking sound. A black one with a spotted back came running up to them, "Hi Romeo."
"Oh that's a cute name," said Elizabeth.
"You should meet Juliette his mate and their filly," said Belle whistling a different tune and another horse that was mostly black with a few white stripes ran up followed by a horse the looked similar to Romeo ran up to them.
"That's interesting that you named the two those two names," said Aiko.
"Well Romeo was always a ladies man ever since he was a colt. He'd be running around trying to get attention of the different fillies so we just named him that. Then we got Juliette who didn't have a name and since she was Romeo's first mate we just named her that."
"What's the baby's name?" asked Hunny rubbing the baby's nose.
"We're not sure yet. We're not sure if we should name her after another Shakespeare character or something more original," said Belle.
"You could call her Rose," suggested Maria.
"Hmm, no that won't work. We like to give our horses unique names," said Belle, "Well anyway, let me show you some other horses we have." The group followed after, except for Haruhi who noticed Tamaki was lagging behind a little.
"Sempi is everything all right?" she asked walking up to him.
"Hmm oh yeah sure," said Tamaki.
"Are you upset about what Mrs. Adeline said about your mother?" asked Haruhi taking her hand. Tamaki didn't say anything but kept looking back at the different horses in the pastures. Haruhi gently took his hand into hers.
"It's okay Tamaki. I'm sure she didn't mean to get you upset," she said.
"Yeah," said Tamaki smiling squeezing Haruhi's hand. "Come on let's go catch up with the others."
"Did you know the twins' family back in France?" asked Haruhi.
"I think I may have when I was little. I sometimes remember going to this big house with horses where I took lessons. I'd sometimes see these kids watching me from the house but that was it," said Tamaki.
"Oh I see," said Haruhi. That would explain why the three of them didn't seem to know each other from before.
"Here are some of my second favorite horses, Arabian," said Belle.
"Oh they're beautiful," said Aiko. Belle gave a click for a horse to come to the fence followed by a baby.
"Hi Questrin," she said rubbing her face.
"What kind of a dorky name is that?" asked Hikaru.
"Its character from 1001 Arabian Nights," said Belle.
"Still sounds weird," said Kaiya. Hikaru chuckled.
"What's her baby's name?" asked Aiko petting the baby.
"Again not sure, we've been throwing names around but nothing seems to stick. We're not even sure if we'll be keeping her. We have a potential buyer for her. Someone's looking for an Arabian horse for his daughter and he's coming this weekend with her to look at the filly."
"Oh that's so sad that the mother and baby have to be separated," said Hunny.
"Well it won't be till she's a bit older and it's all a part of growing up. We've sold a lot of foals both here and in France. And we've also bought a lot foals. Heck Jasmine was a just a filly when we got her."
"Mmm," said Hunny sad.
"It's okay Hunny really," said Belle.
"Yeah Hunny-Sempi," said Aiko taking his hand. Hunny smiled at her.
"So you say these are your second favorite? What pray tell if your top favorite?" asked Kyoya.
"Oh I can show you by showing you mine and Elaina's horses Misty and Amour," said Belle. The groups all walked over to a bigger more secluded pasture where the two horses, one black and one gray, were both were grazing.
"These are mine and Elaina's Mustangs, my all time favorite horses. Amour, come here," Belle called out for her. The black mustang immediately ran over to her. "Hi Amour, meet some of my new friends." The horse gave off a quiet sounding neigh nodding her head. "We've have these two since they've were foals."'
"Did you have to take them away from their mommies?" asked Hunny.
"All babies leave their mother at some point Hunny-Sempi," said Kaiya.
"I know but it's still sad," said Hunny.
"You know what Hunny-Sempi, how would you like to see our Konik horses. They're our smaller horses. You might like them," Belle said walking off to yet another pasture.
"Oh really, are they cute?" asked Hunny running after her.
"Adorable especially the foals," said Belle.
"Whoa what the hell did they do those horses ears?" said Kaiya looking out at a field where a bunch of horses were running around or grazing. The odd thing about them was all the horses all had their ears all curved inward.
"Those are Marwari horses. They're like that naturally," said Belle.
"They look some sort of alien horses," said Hikaru. Kaiya laughed at that.
"E. Horse phone home," she said.
"Laugh all you want. They're actually used quite a lot of in competition," said Belle. She walked over to the gated area with the Koniks horses. "Do you see the baby horses Hunny-Sempi?"
"Yeah you're right. They're so cute," said Hunny. Belle clicked her tongue and almost all of the little horses came running over. Belle motioned for some of her nearby farm hands to bring some sugar cubes.
"Here go ahead and feed them," she said offering Hunny and Aiko some cubes.
"He he, that tickles," said Aiko as one of the horses ate her cube.
"Yeah, its fun," said Hunny smiling at her. Anyone would admit they looked really cute together.
"Anyone else want to feed a horse?" Belle asked.
"Sure," said Maria taking a cube and offering it to a horse. Mori did as well. Maria gave off a light whimper.
'Why can't I ever stand being so close to him?' she thought. Mori looked over at her.
"Maria would you like to have some of mine?" he asked offering her his cubes.
"Uh thanks," said Maria. She gave off another whimper when her hand touched his.
'Get a hold of yourself Maria,' she thought. Her heartbeat sped up the minute she felt Mori squeeze her hand.
"Do you want another one?" asked Mori.
"Yeah but I can get it myself!" said Maria walking away fast.
'Hmm?' thought Mori confused.
"Where's everyone else?" asked Belle. She looked around to see the others were off on their own. Tamaki and Haruhi were walking around further by themselves holding hands. Hikaru and Kaiya were standing near the Marwari pasture making alien jokes about them. Kyoya was off by himself writing something down. Belle couldn't help but feel that he looked really cute like that. She didn't see where Mark and Elizabeth were at. She walked off to find them.
"Eh," Elizabeth heard Mark mutter as they walked past some of the different pastures.
"You don't care for horses or something?" she said.
"Only the horse power of my motorcycle," said Mark.
"So you never road one before?" asked Elizabeth.
"No I wouldn't say that. A lot of my mom's fancy resorts had horses riding for the guests and I'd ride one every now and then. Not like Belle and her family do," said Mark, "What about you?"
"No we never could really afford horse riding lessons back in England. And even now I don't if it really excites me," said Elizabeth. She jumped when she suddenly a slight breeze go by her ear and realized Mark had lowered his face closer to her ear.
"What would you think about riding a motorcycle?" he whispered into her ear.
"Are you asking me to take a ride on yours?" Elizabeth asked, her cheeks turning bright red.
"Maybe if your brother or fiancé didn't mind too much," said Mark.
"My fiancé?" said Elizabeth.
"Yeah you know Momma, or Kyoya as he's probably known to his mother," said Mark. None of them noticed Belle was standing nearby and heard what they said.
'Kyoya-Sempi, engaged to Elizabeth? When was that established?' she thought upset before hurrying off, not hearing the rest of the conversation.
"You're not taking what my brother said seriously are you?" asked Elizabeth.
"No, but I do like to make a mockery of people that really make me mad," said Mark.
"So if Kyoya-Sempi and I were engaged would you be mad?" asked Elizabeth.
"Probably," said Mark.
"Hmm," said Elizabeth smiling.
"What?" asked Mark.
"Nothing," said Elizabeth walking off before she started turning even redder. Mark watched her and smirked.
"Belle, I must thank you very much for showing us your home. I like to think there are some benefits knowing you someone with horse knowledge like yours," said Kyoya.
"Yeah I bet!" said Belle walking past him mad. Kyoya looked at her a little bit surprise before returning to his journal.
'Can't believe it!' thought Belle mad, 'I can't believe I never even had a chance!' She stormed over towards pasture with Amour and Misty. She climbed up onto Amour's back angrily and started ridding her off bare back to a trail.
"What's her deal?" asked Kaiya when she saw Belle starting to ride off.
"Um should she be going off like that with her foot?" asked Hikaru when he saw her riding out of the pasture. Both started to run off after.
"Hey Horse Whisperer, where are you?" Kaiya shouted after her. Belle stopped her horse and looked at her.
"I, I just need to help Amour stretch her legs. You're all still free to rove around if you want," she said.
"But why are you running off?" asked Hikaru as he walked over to her and the horse and gave the horse a smack on the back. Amour immediately reared up and in the process accidentally started to make Belle fall off.
"Whoa!" she shouted as she fell off right into Hikaru's arms, causing them to both fall down. A farm hand was quick to run over and help calm the horse.
"Sorry about that," said Hikaru. Belle sighed mad.
"It's all right," she said as she tired to stand up only to have really difficult with her ankle.
"Here let me help with that," said Hikaru.
"I don't need it!" said Belle trying to shove Hikaru away, only to fall back on top of him. When she tried getting up again, Hikaru try again to help her.
"I said no thank you!" Belle said loudly she shoved Hikaru away. Kaiya watched.
'What is with her? She's not like jealous of me and Hikaru or something is she?' she thought.
Elaina looked at Kaoru shocked over his question. Kaoru would feel himself start to panic a little.
'That was too bold. I was too bold! God why did I do that! I made a move too soon!' he thought.
"Can I think about it?" she asked finally.
'Well that's a good start,' thought Kaoru.
"Sure," he said trying to sound calm. Elaina reached over and squeezed his hand.
"I'll let you know by Friday," she said sincerely.
"Sure, I'll be waiting till then," said Kaoru feeling good in either case.
