The Next Day!
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oliver was out in his field with Boomerang and a few other horses that where across the field obviously avoiding them. There was a new horse coming today and no pony/horse or human knew who they where, well apart from Mrs. Jones.All they knew was that the horse was a dark bay called Dexter and he was supposed to be owned by a 17 year old girl called Zoe but thats just a rumour going around everywhere, Awell we will see today."OLIVER" Jessy called looking around for that orange coat in the sun. He heard her but he didn't move, He didn't want to see Jessy today.. All he wanted was grass. "OLIVER!!" Jessy called again but still no Oli?
*A well* Jessy thought *he is probably around the back of the field, I'll go get his stuff then get him. If I can*. Little did Jessica know that her horse was not in the best of moods today. Oliver had already gotten bitten today and he got in a big rearing stand off with Aztec (A blue roan owned by a 14 year old girl, Emma). But the 'rear off' shall we say didn't last very long because Mrs. Jones saw them and brought Aztec in.{Jessy's P.O.V}
UGH.. His saddle is so heavy, and thats just his saddle I still have the bridle, saddle pad and sometimes the odd polo wrap. Then I have my stuff like my helmet, boots and high vis jacket if I was up in the mountains. Its getting colder its just around the 10th of September. It's actually been a few months since I have known Oliver and he has his off days well thats most of the time but I forgive him sometimes because I know he didn't have the best past. Mrs. Jordan is really mean to Oli, whenever she feeds him she gets a stick, a stick! Like who does that it's not like he is going to pin you up against the was and try to crush you to death. Anyway.. Ok so I have put my saddle on his door and now it's time to get the rest of his stuff. As I walk back up to the tack room and barn I bump into someone
"Oh so, so sorry!" The girl said, I had never seen this girl before.. Maybe she's new?
"No, no it's no problem, are you new here I haven't seen you before?" I smile
"Oh yeah I'm boarding my horse here. I'm Zoe!" She grins so widely it almost looks fake but I can tell it's not
"Jessica. But you can call me Jess" I wink. I see that she has her saddle in her arms, maybe she's going to ride or something.
"I see you have your saddle, are you riding?" I ask
"Oh yeah would you like to join" Zoe smiles
"I would love to, just let me get my bridle, helmet and stuff!" I say walking away totally forgetting that I'm riding, Oliver. I walk into the tack room and look for my bridle, Eskadron saddle pad and my helmet. I grab them and walk back down to get Oliver, then I see Zoe with a big dapple grey he has to be 16hh. I walk past Zoe she smiles and waves, I smile back and point to the field, she nods and I keep walking. I'm going to get Oliver then go for a hack with Zoe I can't wait!I walk out to the lush grass field and start jogging to the back because that's where all the horses hang out, even Oli which is a surprise! I stopped jogging when I saw Oliver lying down with his back to me. I really didn't want to scare him so I walked slowly to my left where his head was pointing. His ears started to twitch so I stopped and stood there. His ears stopped and his head turned with his ears flat back. I knew he was in a bad mood, oh no. He realised who I was so he got up, but instead of walking to me.. It almost looked as if he pulled a smirk then he bolted up to top of the field..
"OH. COME. ON" I yelled as he kept galloping up the steep hill. He stopped at the very top, pricked his ears at me and neighed. He was obviously very happy with what he just did. Ugh, oh well I better start walking or he will run away again.{Zoe's P.O.V}
Jessy had been gone for about 10 minutes now, I was finished brushing my dark bay Dexter but decided to wait for Jessy so we can tack up together. As I was just waiting there a a chestnut with a massive head appeared but he had no one on him. He looked back to where he came from pricked his ears and neighed his head off. *Omg, I hope that's not Jessy's horse. He looks like a lunatic* I thought to myself laughing a bit. Then I heard a familiar voice shouting something,
"Oh. Come. On" the voice screamed at the top of her lungs. That was Jessy and the chestnut was obviously her horse. Oops haha. The chestnut stood there waiting for Jessy and she finally appeared looking red as she was out of breath. I laughed a bit at how sassy her horse was. But soon stopped because she looked really angry and when she had the bridle over his big head she shouted{Jessy's P.O.V}
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU" I roared at Oliver as I opened the gate to get out of the field. I saw Zoe laughing and I couldn't help but laugh myself, I walked Oliver past her horse and 2 grooming stations away. She looked at me a really weird way so I hooked up Oliver and left him with hay. I walked up to Zoe and said
"Sorry that took so long", "It's grand he is obviously young" she smiled. I laughed a bit, and she looked at me again and said "What?!?" "Nothing, no Oliver is not a 4 year old or anything he's actually 9" I smiled "Oh really, he doesn't act like it" she laughs. I nod "And really sorry for bringing him a bit far away he just doesn't like other horses" I sigh and she smiles "it's grand". I walk back to Oliver and get him ready. This hack is going to be entertaining
