Riverwood Academy - AIRLINE BLUE

|| goodbye||

i watched as the trailer drove away. bonnies in a home where she can be ridden more. i bit my lip so i didnt cry. alice looked at me.

"its okay Aella. shes gone to a five star home." alice hugged me and i hugged her back. i gave in and cried. i love bonnie but i know she and river will be so much happier in a home where they can be ridden more and just get more attetion.

"blues going in a week as well." i wiped my eyes. i didnt think this would be too hard. but its really hard. i do love my horses a lot.

" you have pharaoh. he'll be good for you. you can foucs on you and pharaoh now." alice said as she hugged me. i nodded slowly, not beliving her.

"crap, we've got a lesson." alice said and grabbed my arm dragging me to the stables. in silince we got our horses and tacked them up and headed to the arena.

pharaoh was being a phyco. he was trying to bite and kick everything. i honeslty didnt have the engry to fight him today so mr. corner would yell at me for letting pharaoh be a brat.

i sighed as i halted pharaoh and adjusted my spurs incase they werent on correctly. i moved pharaoh into a trot. he was tossing his head and trying to kick the other horses. i smacked him on the neck, not hard but enough when he tried to kick alices horses face off.

i pulled pharaoh away from the other horses, yes i used too much force. im just not in the mood to ride. im loosing everything. my best friend is in sugrey. my  boy friend is also in sugrey and im crying myself to sleep every night cause the horse that was meant to teach my kids to ride got shot by my ex.

okay that sounds like a lot when i think bout it.

"aella! pharaohs gonna kick someones face off." alice squealed as pharaoh tried to kick her horse. i flipped her off. after i checked to see if mr. corner was there. he wasnt. i was fine and wouldnt get yelled at. alice frowned at me but i ignored her and moved pharaoh to the inside track so no one would get there afce kicked off. i gripped the reins as tight as i could and bit my lip.

the stress is getting to me if you cant tell.

everything felt weird. my skin felt like it was crawling. i quickly brushed my arms and went back to wamring up.

mr. corner came in. i could see he was setting up barrels.

"barrles are imporant cause you ahve to foucs on manging your horse at high speeds and tight turns. were going to do the clover leaf pattern, starting at the right barrel." mr. corner said after a while, breaking the silince. we all nodded and line dup as far away from the barrles as we could.

"kay, aella your going first." he nodded. i asked pharaoh for a canter. he bucked but i sat it. i gripped the reins tighter and tighter. i urged him into a gallop and leand forward in the saddle slighlty and loosened the reins, as we came to the first barrel pharaoh bc=ucked kicking the barrle down. he stumbled getting over it. i grabbed his mane to pull myself back into the saddle. i shook my head as we turned to the next barrel. i pushed him fast as he could go and turned him. i lifted my leg up so it didnt hit the barrle. i let him turn out of it at his own pace.

"come on." i said heading to the last barrle. he threw his head up and bucked. i fell onto his neck and he spun. i got back into the saddle and turned him in tight circles till he halted. i quickly moved him back into a gallop. he threw his head up and bucked. i grunted and turned him around the final barrel. he kicked out knocking it and akwardly jumped over it. i slipped a bit but manged to stay in the saddle. i kicked him into a full gallop letting him strench out. suddnley he skidded to a stop and i flew over his head and crashed into the sand. pharaoh bucked and shook his head, i sat up and glanced at him as he trotted away from me.

" my turns over." i got up and grabbed the reins and brought pharaoh over to the mounting the block. someone else started going but i stayed near the mounting block, hiding behind pharaoh. i wiped a few tears away from my eyes as i checked the girth again. i mounted and tilted my helmet down to hide my teary eyes and joined the group. pharaoh seemed a lot calmer having thrown me off.

"im gonna start lunging you before rides." i said. i loosened the reins letting him strench out while i watched everyone else do much better then me. i looked at pharaohs neck. i thought pharaoh would be amazing and perfect.

but perfects rimel.

and rimels gone.

forever.

" one horse trying to fill the void of a thousand horses. and that horse is trying to kill me." i muttered earning a weird looking from the girl next to me.

"okay everyone did super well. aella try to stay on next time." mr. corner said. the moment he turned his back i stuck my middle finger up.

"try to stay on next time. you havent been on a horse in two years." i muttered under my breathe.

by the end of the lesson i was crying. i lead pharaoh to the cross ties and untacked him. i didnt say anything. i lead him back to his stable and put him in his stall. i agve him a carrot as well as blue. i sat in blues stall.

"i'm gonna miss you a lot buddy." i kissed his muzzle.
