Blue Spring's Riding Academy---Starting New

A Talk With Aidan and Titan

 Last time: "I had headed to my room to relax and Payton had gone out to our private balcony. I didn't hear from him until later that night. And once I did, I didn't know what else to do so I walked away, out of the dorm, and out to the barns. Call me stupid, but I needed to talk with my horse."

Walking down the pathway to the stable, my head was spinning. My boots clicked as I walked into the barn and to Titans stall, and hopped up on his back. Sighing, I started to talk and think about what just happened.

I had headed to my room to relax, but Aidan headed out to the balcony. I spent about an hour in my room, before I decided to head outside. I grabbed a pair of shoes and walked out, to see Aidan sitting on one of the wicker benches. "Hey." I said, taking a seat next to him. "Hey Blair." he said, shooting me a smile. The both of us sat there for a good 5 minutes in a comfortable silence. I heard him take in a breath and then he turned to me. "Blair, can we talk?" He asked. "Sure, what's up?" I replied. "Blair.....I've been thinking. I know this might be a little fast but. Uh, I was wondering if, well maybe you'd allow me to take you out on a date?" He said. I felt my mouth drop open as I just stared at him.

"Now, I know what you're thinking. Why didn't I say yes? I was in shock. I honestly wasn't expecting him to ask me that. Aidan took my silence the wrong direction, because he sighed, told me he understood and walked back inside. I didn't know what to do Titan, so I came here." I told my horse. "Should I say yes? Do I tell him it's to fast?" I wondered aloud. "It could work, but at the same time, it could get seriously weird in the arena. i don't want a relationship to get in the way of riding and school, but I want to give him a chance." Titan nickered at me, almost as though he was laughing. "You think it's funny boy?" I said, laughing a little. I slid off his back and walked through the door to my adjoining tack room. I grabbed his grooming kit and a lead line. I clipped the lead line onto his halter and led him out of his stall and to a pair of crossties.

Continuing to talk with Titan, I brushed him down and tacked up. As I was finishing with putting his bridle on, I asked the final question. "Titan, if I were to give him a chance, there'd be another boy in my life that I hold close. You'll have to share me." I said. "Are you ok with that or would you get to jealous?" I asked with a giggle. Titan bobbed his head up and down, causing me to laugh. I placed a kiss on his nose and led him to the indoor arena. Mounting up, I started an easy routine. Letting my mind wander, I rode through an old dressage routine. We finished and I cooled Titan down, brushed him again, made sure he had enough food and water, checked on Spirit as well, and headed back to the dorm.

I walked through the commons, called the elevator and went up to our floor. Looking out the window, I could see some Phoenix residents hanging out on the large patio. I unlocked the door to the room and stepped inside. Olivia was in the kitchen, making something for dinner, Jonah was doing a workout on the floor and Aidan was nowhere to be found. I walked to my room, changed into a pair of shorts and a t-shirt, and walked across the hall to Aidans room. I took a breath and knocked on the door. "Come in." I heard him say. I popped my head in the door and saw him cleaning his room. "Hey." I said, a rush of deja vu coming over me. His head popped up at the sound of my voice, causing him to stand and look at me. "Hey Blair. Uh, about earlier. I'm so sorry about that. I completely understand if you want absolutely noth-" He started, but didn't get to finish as he found a pair of lips on his, effectively shutting him up.

Aidan slowly put his arms around me, holding me close as we kissed. I pulled back and placed my head on his shoulder, my face facing towards his neck. "Aidan, I'm so sorry for not saying anything earlier. You probably took that as a rejection, but I thought about it for a long time with a little help from Titan. I'd love to go on a date with you if the offer still stands." I said. "Really?" Aidan said, excitement in his voice. "Yes really you dork." I replied, looking at him with a smile. "Does Saturday at 3 pm sound good?" He asked me. "Sounds perfect." I told him. 

He smiled and connected our lips again. He grabbed onto my left leg and hiked it up slightly. Knowing what he wanted, I jumped up, wrapping my legs around his waist, not breaking the kiss. He moved over to his bed and laid me down on it, both of us kissing each other passionately. We eventually had to stop for air, but he placed his forehead on mine, breathing heavily, neither one of us wanting to break eye contact. "Aidan, Have you seen--OH" We ripped our eyes from each other and to the door with the deer in headlights look, to see Olivia standing there, looking at us with a slight blush across her cheeks.

"Am I interrupting?" she asked with a smirk. "No" "Yes" We said at the same time. Olivia just laughed and shut the door, her laughter trailing down the hallway, no doubt to go tell Jonah. Aidan and I looked at each other and burst out laughing. "Come on" I said, trying to catch my breath. "Let's go have dinner and try not to get killed by Jonah." Aidan nodded and we walked out to the dinning table, to see Jonah sending daggers at us with Olivia telling him to calm the fuck down.

"Heyyyyy little bro." I said, shooting him a look that said try something stupid I dare you. He raised an eyebrow at me. "Were you gonna plan to tell me that you were gonna go make out in his room with him?" He deadpanned. I felt my face going red. "Jonah I swear-" I said, wacking him upside the head. "OW" He exclaimed. "Well what did you expect?!" Olivia asked. "A nice oh yes brother, I'll make sure to tell you next time from her?" Jonah shot her a sheepish look. "Well. Not exactly." He said. The three of us sighed and sat down as Olivia set the food on the table. We dished our plates and ate in silence for the most part. Finishing with dinner, Jonah started with the dishes while the rest of us went to the living room and played a few rounds of Mario Kart. Jonah eventually joined us and we stayed up late into the night, laughing and throwing pointless insults at each other.
