Okay, since it got so many hits, heres the next chapter! Hope you guys
I heaved the saddle onto Nova's back. Even though barrel saddles were supposed to be light, it was still pretty heavy, especially when you practically lifting it above your head. I shoved the saddle the rest of the way and sighed. "Gotta admit, having extra help is nice.. Gives me more time to go riding.." I mutter to myself, tightening the girth, causing Nova to start shaking her head and pitch a fit. "Oh you've had enough time off you big baby!" I gave one strong pull on the girth and Nova snorted, stopping. "Oh, does someone actually enjoy me being here?" I heard Bellamy's voice, and whirled around the face him, my cowboy hat, yes, a cowboy hat, nearly falling off. I pushed the rim of my hat up, glaring at him. "Only because it gives me enough time to actu-" I was cut off as I started to giggle, Nova sniffing at my neck and chewing on my hair. I pulled my hair back, pushing Nova's head away before turning to face Bellamy. I almost did a double take when I noticed the fondness in his smile, but then it was quickly replaced with his smug smile. I frowned and turned back, getting Nova's bridle on. "I was saying, because it gives me more time to do more then just clean and watch the horses. I have free time for once." I muttered, getting the bridle over Nova's head. I felt hands on my waist and gasped, spinning around to face Bellamy, shoving him away. "What the hell Bellamy?!" I stared at him, my eyes wide. I saw something in his eyes. What was that..? Hurt? But before I could register it, it was gone. He didn't say anything, so I turned, finished with tacking up Nova quickly, and practically ran out of the barn, getting a foot in the stirrup and swinging up into the saddle as Nova took off at a canter. "Clarke wait!" Bellamy ran out of the barn after me, but stopped short, watching as I disappeared into the forest on the other side of the yard, just past our riding arena.
"Clarke!" I yelled, jogging out of the barn as she took off on her horse. I sighed, running a hand through my unruly hair. What was I thinking? Maybe that she was beautiful when she laughed... That I just wanted to know what she felt like.. I shook my head. What were these thoughts? That's Clarke we're talking about, the pain in my neck since I was a kid. I turned and sighed, kicking a bucket as I went back into the barn. I started with mucking out the stalls now, rather aggressive with the pitch fork as I threw the dirty shavings into the wheelbarrow. I sighed and stopped, throwing the pitch fork down. In the state Clarke was in, or more like, the state I put her in. I stepped out of the stall, and opened another one, pulling out the horse that Jake basically gave me. I tacked up in record time, swinging into the saddle. I kicked the horse, or Chief, in the direction Clarke ran off to. (Le queue picture of majestic Bellamy riding bareback across a beach with his shirt undone, and his long hair flowing majestically behind him.) I was practically galloping through the forest now, worried for Clarke's safety. It didn't take me long to find her, and when I did, I stopped short. She was walking into a clearing, her blonde her illuminated by the sunlight. It wasn't long before I moved toward her, unable to stop myself.
I had slowed Nova down when we reached a clearing. I pulled her to a walk as we broke out of the trees, looking around the clearing, I smiled some. It was beautiful. The sun was angled into the grass, making the wild flowers in the clearing practically glow. I dismounted slowly, leaving Nova to graze as I made my way into the clearing. I smiled, releasing a breathy laugh as I lifted a hand, catching a small white butterfly, it's wings illuminated by the sunlight. I lowered my hand, and spun around some, Dandelion seeds floating through the air. I barely registered the sound of another horse showing up as bird flitted up out of the knee high grass, it's blue wings sparkling. I turned around again and gasped, stepping back from Bellamy. I smiled again, and he moved closer, his arm going to my waist. He reached up with his other hand, brushing a stray hair behind my ear. I looked to his hand, then back up at him, and his gaze dropped to my lips, then back to my eyes. My breath caught as he leaned down, brushing his lips against mine. When I didn't pull away, he took that as encouragement and pressed his lips against mine fully. My eyes grew wide, but then fluttered shut, melting into the kiss. I sighed, pulling myself closer to him. He bit my bottom lip gently, and I opened my mouth, allowing him access. My eyes snapped open when I finally came to sense with what we were doing, and I pushed him away, stepping out of his grasp. "Clarke..?" Bellamy asked. I looked up at him, and ran toward Nova. She threw her head up as I pulled myself up into the saddle. "Clarke!" Bellamy yelled, leaving him behind yet again.
Soooo that happened. And I keep thinking, about Jasper XD It's kinda sad, because Jasper is a fictional character, but he's the type of guy I could see myself falling in love with, and it's like, "WWHHYY"
But anyway, hope you enjoyed!
