Kind of a filler chapter... sorry it's so short!

Feel free to leave a review!

Emily was in her room, like she had been for almost the entire week. She was looking up at the ceiling from her bed, staring off into the nothingness that was there. The red head had been in a certain state of arousal since she had given the gorgeous blond a bath, and then kissed her in her new room. Things would have been fine if Effy wouldn't have come… or if she would have at least admitted that she had done nothing to help Emily find Naomi. The younger twin knew she had responsibilities to take care of, but neither her parents, nor her siblings had tried to get her out of her mood.

A vibrating sound came from her bedside table and her head turned over on her pillow to look at her phone spinning around slowly because of the vibrations. The twin really didn't want to get it, just wanted to let it go, or even better, to toss her phone against the wall, breaking it, but she didn't. She reached over and picked up the device and flipped it open with her thumb before opening up the text. It was Naomi. Her thumb hovered over the delete button before she actually started to read it. "Emily, I wiggled my toes today. Doesn't seem like much, but it's better than nothing. I miss you. I hope you're alright. ~N"

Emily quickly hit reply before her chocolate orbs stared at the empty screen. What could she possibly say or do to rectify what she had done. She had left, after promising she wouldn't. The red head was just about to close her phone back up when she saw a name flashing on the screen indicating she was receiving a call. A small smirk formed on her lips as she pushed the answer button and put the phone up to her ear. "Hey J…"

"Hey there Ems… look, you're coming to my house tomorrow, yeah? My dad's got some cancer patients coming over tomorrow for some therapy and I know how happy it makes you to walk around with the kids on the horses, and I just know you'll feel…"

"JJ…" she tried to distract him as he got locked on, "JJ… you're locked on! I'll come, if you'll just quiet down!" By the time her sentence was finished, the frizzy haired boy had calmed down.

"We're sorted then…" he said, a smile evident on his face even though Emily couldn't see him.

"I'll be there bright and early tomorrow morning. I think I'll ride over seeing as Thunder has been feeling a little neglected lately. Is the key still hidden in the same place, JJ?"

"Only for you, Ems!"

"Great, 'til tomorrow then."

"Bye." The frizzy haired boy said as they both hung up their phones.

For the first time in the last week and a half, the red head had a smile on her face. JJ would often call her to come help out; she loved children, and loved horses, so having them both together was even better. Emily went about putting an outfit together for the next day, already feeling tired enough to go to bed, though she hadn't done anything but lay in bed all day long.

It was the first time in over a week that Emily was up before she sun made its way above the horizon. Not only was she up, but she was dressed, fed, and was already out in the barn getting Thunder ready for a ride down the road to the Jones Ranch. The air was crisp against her skin, but it felt good to get up in the saddle again. The younger twin had given herself an hour and a half to get to JJ's, when she knew it would take less than thirty riding atop her steed.

The ride there took even shorter than it normally would have if they would have walked, but Thunder wanted to go a bit faster. She had kept it to a trot or a slow canter though, not wanting to get to the Jones' house too early. Then again, she was like their long lost daughter.

A smile was plastered to her lips as she rode up and dismounted Thunder to put him away to get the other horses ready for the kids who would ride on them. JJ was outside along with his parents getting the special saddles put on the horses. They had a lot of ponies and miniature horses, which was why it made their ranch the perfect one for therapy rides. Emily couldn't help but notice they only had one full sized horse saddled today… they usually got a list of heights and weights so they can match up the children to their horses. A lot of this is to try to build some kind relationship between the child and the horse so that next time, they would already have a horse in mind to ride.
