Equine Academy

Chapter 4: Ethan...

A/N: I'm changing the "format" of my story's so yeah that's all

        "Wake up Emily!" Is all I heard besides a few giggles. I opened my eyes, seeing Mia and Addison staring at me from above.

        "What's so funny?" I asked, worried.
They giggled again and I raced to the mirror where there was marker on my face.

         "What's going on?" Hunter asked after coming out of the bathroom. She saw what Mia and Addison had done.

          "You guys have to be nice!" She exclaimed. She pulled me into the bathroom where she worked hard to get the marker off. Finally, she got it but had to hide all the markers from Mia and Addison.

          "You two should be getting ready for today! The boy's academy is coming here!" Hunter shouted to Mia and Addison.

           "Oh gosh, I should get all fancy then," I said, racing to my wardrobe. I picked out tan breeches and a white and reddish-pink polo shirt. I put on my tall black boots and waited for the others to be ready.

            "So when do they come?" I wondered.

             "Soon, like, 3:00," Mia said. I looked at her, shocked she had actually sad something. She looked back at me and then at the clock. It was 12:23 p.m.

              "I'm going down to ride, you guys should come!" I said, leaving the room. Hunter nodded before I closed the door.

            "Finally some alone time," I said while click-clacking through the building. Soon I got to the barn where a groom was working hard to get all the dirt off Arion. I got my tack and waited till the groom finished.

"Thank you," I nodded to him. He nodded back and went to the next horse. I patted Arion. He whinnied at me as I tacked up. I finished putting on his boots and then led him out to the arena, where a lesson I was supposed to be at was taking place.

"Nice of you to join us, Emily," the trainer said with an annoyed look. I blushed.

"Sorry I didn't know there would be a lesson," My face turned red as I noticed all the other girls staring at me.

"Well yeah, we have to go against the boy's academy today, don't you know anything?!" One of them snapped. The trainer gave her a look and went on with the lesson. We jumped high jumps and high oxers. Arion cleared them all, and I hoped it would be that way for the competition against the boy's academy later.

It was 3:00 on the dot and the fancies buses I've ever seen pulled in carrying loads of boys. Trailers came in behind them, carrying the finest horses ever. Hunter must have seen me in shock cause she laughed.

"Their academy takes pride in showing up in style," she said. I nodded at her with a smile. Arion and I were in the arena, alone, practicing. Hunter was watching but soon left to take care of one of the horses. We jumped over many obstacles, and then I heard someone.

"Hey, you guys are really good," it said. I turned and saw a boy.

"Thanks, im Emily," I blushed.
"Ethan," he replied.
"Haha if we ever got married we could have a whole family with "E" names!" I blurted.

"Oh. My. God. I did not just say that!" I thought.
Ethan looked at me then laughed.
"I guess so," he said, still laughing.
"You are really pretty," he added.
