"Hello" He says. I'm so startled that I nearly fall over. He's tall dark and handsome. Tan skin, green eyes, a shaggy haircut, and a flawless smile. His dimples are as deep as the grand canyon. I blush.
"Hi" I reply to him shyly. I wonder why he's here. Probably some other girl's boyfriend.
"I'm Jack, and over there..." He points to a Morgan horse with long eyelashes, "is my horse Belle." Whoa. A boy who rides horses. Who ever heard of such a thing. I'd never met a horse... boy???
"Uh..." I say dumbly, not knowing what to think. "I'm Sophie and this..." I point to Dream, "Is my mare Dream.
"Nice!" He exclaims before a very awkward silence. I'm the first to break it.
"So..., where are you from?"
"Ohio"
"How old are you?"
"15, you?"
"14" I say "How long have you been riding?"
"6 years." He answers. "I have a question for you..." He pauses. "Do you have a boyfriend?" My face is red hot. I am willing the fire in my cheeks to go out. I try to change the subject.
"Do you think you have a chance at nationals?" Flames are spreading across my cheeks. AAAH!
"You didn't answer." He says brushing my cheek. My cheek that is in the most severe blushing state right now.
"Um..." I stammer. "No I don't." And a millisecond later, his lips are on mine.
