Recap:

“Well I guess you will have to show me what you do one day,” he winks at me and I just look away, feeling my cheeks turn pink.

“Joey, are you going to the ball?” Anastasia inquires.

“Yes, that is why I am here, why?”

“Want to come with us? Dylan and I are going together with Scotty and Chad. You can always come with someone if you would like.”

“Maybe I shall, speaking of Chad, how is he? I need to go see him soon.”

“Yeah, he is at Marley’s today. When we leave you could come with us and go see him?”

“Sounds good, just let me know when you guys are leaving.”

“Alright, bye Joey, have fun with Justice,” Anastasia waves bye and I quickly follow her out of the arena.

A few hours later, I stand up and stretch, sore from lying down and watching movies all day. Glancing at the clock, I notice it is already four. Anastasia has her legs dangling off the bed with her dog, Chester, licking her legs and toes. Looking at her and then back at the clock, Anastasia gets up and stretches beside me.

“I’m assuming it is about time we head back over to your house,” Anastasia guesses before walking out her bedroom door and down the hall.

“Yeah, I need to train Scar and there are a few things I must get done today.”

“Alright, well let’s go find Joey and then we can leave.”

I trail behind Anastasia as we make our way around her house looking for Joey. Joey isn’t anywhere in the house so we walk outside towards the barn and paddocks. Anastasia takes me down a dirt path between trees and it comes out into a large clearing. My jaw drops as I spot three gorgeous horses in a paddock beside a huge barn.

“What is this place?” I ask Anastasia, astonished.

“This is where we train horses and where we bring new horses so they can get accustomed to the new area and some of our best horses.”

“This place is gorgeous, those horses are gorgeous too.”

“Thanks, but I have a feeling Joey is in the arena here. It is just a hunch but he tends to come here and work with this one horse when he has free time.”

“Really? That’s awesome,” I smile at her as we enter the arena and hear Joey’s voice drift down towards the door.

“Joey,” Anastasia yells his name and waves at him.

He briefly looks towards us before smiling and bringing the horse to a halt in front of him. I follow Anastasia towards him and stop as I get a better look at the horse. The horse is dapple-grey appaloosa mare with whip scars that are just healing along her neck and back. She has big brown eyes and a faint light brown tint to her dapples and some light brown mixed in with her mane and tail.

“She’s beautiful, isn’t she?” I jump as Joey whispers in my ear from my right.

“Oh god, you scared me,” I tell him as I hold my hand over my heart as I struggle to calm it down. “But yes, yes she is beautiful, what’s her name?”
