Uuppddaattee. Two updates in two days, wow, I'm on a roll ^.^
Flying. That's the only word I can use to describe it. If you're wondering what I'm talking about, I'm running a jumping course with Nova. Nova's a great little jumper she is, we can jump 3 feet. The course consisted of 15 jumps and lots of turns. I love my English saddle, so much more than my western. I don't know what it is about English saddles that are just so much more... Nice. But yeah, running, turning, jumping. And all that technical crap you probably don't want me to go into right now. Anyway, I'm headed for the last jump now. I nudge Nova a few times, sit up in the saddle, and bring myself up and over her neck as she pushed up off the ground. Basically, when jumping horseback, I guess you technically jump with the horse. I leaned back as Nova's front hooves hit the ground, and then straightened in the saddle when she had all fours on the ground. I grinned, and slowed Nova down to a trot, and she snorted, shaking her head. "Good girl, you did great." I leaned forward to pat her neck once I slowed her to a walk. I dropped the reins, and let Nova just go at a leisurely walk around the arena to cool her down. I leaned back, and rested my head just above her tail, so I was basically laying down on Nova. That's another thing I like about the English saddle, you can't do this in a western saddle. I saw movement in the corner of my eye, and sat up to see Bellamy watching me, a smile plastered on his face. He reached up, and waved when he saw me watching, and I smiled, waving back. "Clarke!" My dad called, and I turned my head to see him rushing out of the house and towards his truck. "Sorry girl, not quite ready to cool down yet." I muttered, and nudged her into a canter. And this is where you would all call me a show off, because, well, I jumped Nova out of the arena. I cantered over to Dad, and pulled Nova up beside him. "What is it?" I nudged Nova into a trot to keep up with Dad's quick pace. He stopped at the truck, and I pulled Nova to an instant stop. "I have to run into town, and we have a new boarder coming in. They expect you to exercise their horse for them, because they're hardly ever in town." He said as opened the door, and stopped to face me. "Well, I can do that. Okay. What kind of horse is it?" I tilted my head a bit, and Dad sighed, shaking his head. "They didn't say. They should be here in an hour. Have a stall ready, and a spot in the tack room open." He got into his truck and closed the door, rolling down the windows. "I'll go ahead and get that done." I nodded, and he smiled at me. "Be good while I'm gone!" He called as he basically tore out of the driveway in his hurry. I turned Nova around, and rode her over to the barn before dropping out of the saddle. I took Nova inside, removed her bridle, and began to take off her saddle. "Nice ride.." I heard a voice behind me, and arms wrap around me from behind. I smiled, and turned in his arms, looking up at him. "I know, right?" I grinned when he rolled his eyes, and leaned down to kiss me. Just to be a tease, I leaned forward, but at the last minute I turned my head, so he kissed my cheek. He groaned, and began kissing down to my neck. "That's not fair Princess." He mumbled, and I laughed a little, and pushed him away. "Come on Bell, I've got to finish untacking Nova and get a stall and the tack room ready, we have a new boarder coming in." I turned back to undo Nova's girth. "Fine. I'll go ahead and get the stall ready. You want me to put the new horse next to Nova?" He looked over, and I nodded, carrying it into the tack room. "Thanks Bell, you're a doll." I grinned as he frowned, then simply looked disgusted. I walked emptied a corner for the new horse, and walked back out, then put Nova in her stall. I walked over, and hopped up onto the little bench thingy made for feed buckets, and sat there, watching Bellamy work. This was my favorite pass time. Watching Bellamy work, because, seriously, who could NOT watch Bellamy work? I mean come on, those arms. Drool. Anyway, I think Bellamy wants to go to his POV now. Bye!
I loved watching Clarke ride. Not just the fact that she was undoubtedly hot when she rode, especially jumping, when she was always leaning forward. But, it was more than that. She looked free when she rode. Like she could do anything that she set her mind to, which, in reality, she probably actually could. But riding, she could do anything when she was in the saddle. And I loved seeing that side of her. That girl that could probably cure cancer, or solve world hunger. Before I knew it, I had a goofy smile on my face while I watched her take Nova through the course. I leaned against the pitchfork in my hands, momentarily forgetting that I was supposed to be working. When she finally stopped, my smile only grew when she had decided to lay down on Nova's back. I straightened up, and picked up my pitchfork. She turned her head a bit, and sat up, looking over at me. She smiled, and I waved. She waved back, but was quickly distracted by her father calling her. And let me tell you, that whole jumping out of the arena and riding over to her father, that was pretty cool. And hot. I was in the tack room when she came back in, and once she got Nova's bridle off, I walked over, wrapping my arms around her waist from behind. "Nice ride.." I murmured, and she turned in my arms to smile up at me. "I know, right?" She smiled up at me, and I huffed, rolling my eyes. I leaned down towards her, and I was fully expecting her to kiss me back, but she turned her head at the last minute, so I kissed her cheek. I groaned against her skin, and began trailing kisses down her neck. "That's not fair Princess.." I groaned out, and she started to push me away. "Come on Bell, I've got to finish untacking Nova, and get a stall and the tack room ready, we have a new boarder in." God I love it when she calls me Bell. "Fine. I'll go ahead and get the stall ready. You want me to put the new horse next to Nova?" She nodded at me, and I grabbed a pitch fork, and then proceeded to grab a few bags of shavings. "Thanks Bell, you're a doll." She called out, and I frowned, then my expression turned to disgust, and she laughed. After a few minutes she came back out, and hopped up onto the bench shelf thingy for feed buckets. She would never admit it, but I know she likes to watch me work. Once I finished, I closed the stall door, and walked over to her. She smiled as I wrapped my arms around her waist. Sitting on the shelf, she was slightly taller than me, and most guys wouldn't like that, but I thought what was kinda hot as she ran her fingers through my mop called hair, and wrapped her arms around my neck. As soon as I kissed her, I could hear someone clear their throat. I groaned, and pulled back, turning to face whoever it was at the barn door..
