Hey Guys! Thanks for all of the support, and here is the next chapter!
Jake glanced around. No one was about... he snuck into the barn...
Sam skipped out of the house to see Jesse. Her dad had told her to turn him out! She was so proud! He had said to do it on her own (Jesse had his own small field)!
She entered the barn and slowed to a walk. She knew not to run at horses-even though Jesse would never spook-as it could make them jump.
He stopped in front of Jesse's stall.
"Hey bootyful!" she said, struggling to pronounce 'beautiful'" How are you? Wanna go out in the field?" she asked. She reached up to grab his head collar off of the hook...
Sam was only six, and therefore, not very tall. All the stables had hooks to hang head collars on, but as soon as Wyatt knew Sam was getting a pony, he had nailed another one at an easier height for her. She couldn't even touch the head collars on the normal hooks.
As Sam groped for the head collar, but the hands only found air and an empty hook. She looked up and saw that Jesse's head collar was on the higher hook which she couldn't reach. Her eyes filled with tears. Her first chance to show everyone she was a big girl. Jesse stuch his head over the door and tried to nuzzle her, but he too, wasn't big enough. His 12.2 ponies just wasn't long enough.
After a while, Dallas came in. He had heard hysterical sobbing. He walked in to see Sam crying on the floor, and Jesse trying to reach her with his head. The sight was so comical, he almost laughed, but, Sam was crying bucket loads, and he knew laughing wasn't going to help. He walked closer and took in the situations, and then spotted the problem; the head collar was on the hook Sam couldn't reach instead of her hook. He reached over the lift the head collar off of the hook for her.
"NO!" Sam screamed, her tears stopping and anger filling her eyes. She was a big girl, and she could figure it out! She sat on the floor for a few minutes, trying to think of a solution. Dallas stood watching. Suddenly she got up, and walked out of sight. Dallas heard the sound of something been dragged across the floor. What in the world is she doing?
Sam came into sight dragging a crate, smiling triumphantly. She dragged it over so it was underneath the hook, climbed onto it, and lifted the head collar off of the offending hook, than climbed down, victory shining in her eyes. Dallas smiled and laughed, walking out of the barn. That girl did make him laugh sometimes!
***
Sam wandered back into the house. She had no doubt in her mind who had put her head collar on the wrong hook. It had been Jake Ely. No one else touched Jesse without telling Sam first and no-one had told her about needing to use Jesse's head collar. It had been Jake. Mean, stubborn Jake. And he was just doing it because he was annoyed at her. Annoyed at her for not letting him ride Jesse. Annoyed at her for tipping him off. Sam may have been young, but she was not stupid. I fact she was a very clever girl. If Jakes wasn't to play dirty then so be it! Let the war begin!
"Jake. JAKE!" Maxine Ely called her youngest son. Jake appeared. "Sam's on the phone for you," she held out the phone. Jake took it, smiling smugly...she was about to start screaming about the head collar thing...and he would just deny it...
She did scream. But not words
"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" Jake heard a muffled thud. Then silence.
