Life changing

Some things needed to be explained to the girls, like why did they have to train like that? Train as If everything is getting risked just by this competition. Will had never told them why this competition is so important for them and still they're just trusting their 17-Year old teacher with what he was doing.

Will on the other hand needed to figure out why he was doing that to himself, overworking himself just for that day, where he would see his biggest enemies again, the Stanhope Riders or as he likes to call them 'The StanBrats'. He had to admit that he could be kind of an ass, If he wanted to achieve something with his group. It was just like his Mom always told him 'Either you teach them or you mess it up'.
Especially this sentence was stuck in his head over the years, even after she passed away.
Well, now he's sitting on his bed, trying to get himself back to work, the thing is he just couldn't because he had given up, he had given up the thought to beat the StanBrats on the competition next week.
Eventually his cousin came into his room, shooting Will a confused look.
,,How comes you're still sitting here, at that time you would be the first one in the stable to groom Jimber" Bailey said to him as he walked up to the older Boy, noticing that Will has not the same light in his eyes as usual, Will shrugged his shoulders, resting his head in his hands ,,Why train? I have the feeling these Riders know our moves better than we know them" Will said quietly as he looked up, the standing up, walking up and down, his cousin still sat on his Bed more confused than he was before he walked in ,,Why is this Competition so special for you anyway?" Bailey asked and the blonde was about to answer but was interrupted by his phone ringing, Will hold up a finger to Bailey and walked out of the room leaving the Brown Haired behind.

Sarah arrived at the stable wondering about why every Horse is getting groomed outside, except for Jimber, If something is important to Will he will sleep at the training area just to have the chance to train more, literally she had found him one day doing so, that has always worried her a little, not the chance for him to catch a cold, it's just that he'll totally overwork himself to the point where he collapses with his emotions.
,,Morning Sarah" Molly said laughing waving a hand in front of my face, Sarah couldn't help herself and smiled at her goofy friend ,,Morning Girls and Bailey" she laughed, earning a grin from Bailey ,,At least you don't leave me out anymore" he laughed and patted her shoulder.
,,Where's Will?" Sarah then asked and you could tell that there was concern in her eyes about her blonde friend.
,,No worry, he'll be there, probably in just a few seconds" Alma said to Sarah in her soft voice, and she was right because Will came down the Road after she had said this, but Sarah noticed that there was something wrong with him, something bothering him, she could tell it just by the way his Hair was hanging down his Face, usually he would do some effort to make his hair perfect, not this time. In Fact it worried her even more.
After a few minutes he came with Jimber out of the Stable to tie him up and groom him.
During the training Will wasn't being himself at all, he didn't bothered to explain to much about the Routine, as If he didn't cared about our score at the competition anymore ,,Hey Sarah?-Sarah?" Eventually she found herself gaining a lot of attention from the others, which made her nervous, she looked to her right and found Will snapping his fingers in front of her face ,,You wanna go?" He asked her as he noticed that he had her attention, Sarah simply nodded and gave it a go.
After the training she decided to talk to him about the training and what's wrong.
Actually it was already evening and the girls went home already, Bailey on the other hand is already in the house, only Will was laying on the pasture watching the Sky. She walked up to him, trying not to step into Horse Poop.
,,Will? How are u?" Sarah said and laid
down next to him, gaining a short eye contact from one of her best friends.
,,The usual, good" he answered short hoping that she wouldn't notice that he was lying, he was always a pretty bad liar, but only because he usually doesn't mind to tell the truth.
,,You kinda worried me today, you didn't seem to be with us with your mind, I've never seen you like that, not even trying to fix up your hair" She laughed a little and messed his hair up even more, earning a short chuckle from the older Boy ,,I don't think I have the right to bother you with my personal Problems" he answered her, realizing it wouldn't do anything to lie because she would know.
Sarah looked over to him realizing the small frown on his face ,,What would make you think you don't have the right to? You have the same right as everyone else" she said and his eyes looked her in the eyes, she realized he still had pretty gorgeous eyes- wait not now Sarah.
,,You don't have to play the brave one out of the group, you're only human too" she said taking a pause ,,It seems like you gave up our training for the Competition against the- how do you call them? StanBrats? How did it came to that name anyway?" She smiled trying to cheer him up a little, Will chuckled and thought about it a minute, ignoring the first question on purpose, he couldn't tell her that he was getting weak, not in front of her or the others ,,You know it was on a Competition against them and I said that because I was pretty pissed because of Talia's actions against Alma, I said that then to Bailey" he chuckled and saw that Sarah was relaxing and less worried, If he could make someone less worry about him he would try to, and this time he got to do it again.
A few minutes later he looked at her again and saw that she fell asleep and she looked peaceful doing so. He eventually checked his watch and saw it was really late, right she's staying here till the Competition because her Parents are on a business trip. He decided to go to the house and picked her up bridal style, trying not to wake her. He came to his room and laid her down on his bed and put a blanket over her, he didn't care if his sheets got dirty from her boots, he grabbed his PJ Pants and closed the door smiling a little. He got down to the livingroom and changed to sleep, after his head had hit the pillow, the lights went out.
