Colt smiled as he looked up at the sun. Five o' clock. He thought wistfully, before long he'd have to get going home, and for the first time in years, he almost didn't want too. yeah, I've never rode an Andalusian with such drive. He must've cost you a pretty penny. He said as he patted the stallions rump with his huge left hand. He was a really nice stallion, if he'd still had his Andalusian mare he would have asked about the stud fee by now, but, she had to be sold to keep Novalle in school, and, even though they had money now, the new owner would never sell her back. She had been an amazing Trail horse, so sure-footed and good- tempered. Aztec was a good Trail horse too, but he didn't get along with very many animals or people. He was still wild, he'd never be fully tame. You've got a really pretty voice. You could be a singer if you wanted too. He said, not really knowing why. It wasn't like him to feel so unwound in front of strangers, but, somehow, he felt that he'd known Lindsay for years.

"Actually he didnt cost me anything but an adoption fee,He was neglected as a foal.I bought him as a 1 and a half year old.Thats wy I didn't let you take control..He won't trust anybody but me.Hes totally devoted to me,but everyoen else that sits onhis back adn takes conrtol,is rode,until either he or the rider dies.Hes strong,If you took a hold of him,knowing you could handle him andstay on,Hed probably literally basically commit sucide on himself.He hasa major fear..of every one until the have been complety trustable.I couldnt tough him until he was 3..and that was with me free lunging him everyday."I said.I loved telling horses history if it was intresting,and i loved telling Chads.I petted him happily,proud of my work,and his abilty to overcome his past.He was a champion,wheather he won ribbons or not.After he coomented her singing Lindsay blushed,shenever blushed.Litterally this had to be thefirst time since..her parents died in the car accident."thankyou,but I have a fright..of singing infront of people"adn with a gulp I said softly"I've never sang infornt of anyone but you..not even Ali".Figuring he must obviously like my singing so i wasn't annoyinhhim and I knew Chad loved my singing I continued to sing the song"God is great,But sometimes life ain't good,And when I pray,Things don't always turn out like I think they should,But I do it anyways"I would have continued but I coudln't rember the rest of the song.Oh well..thought.I tried to think of a good song..but really I had none.My mind was blank..I'd think of one soon.

He chuckled softly. That's how Aztec was, except he was wild. He got in a fight with a mountain lion, and I found him in the mountains in Colorado, he was almost dead, and, since I didn't have a truck then, and there where no vets for miles, I stayed with him and took care of him until he could walk, it was about three weeks before he was well enough to travel. Since then, he hasn't left, but I know he wants too. He can't be touched by anyone but me or Novalle. A lot of horsemen back home told me too shoot him, that he'd never be worth anything, so, last month I took him to the Pintabian world show and he won Grand Champion in cutting and reserved Grand Champion in Trail. We stuck around for a couple of days, but just long enough to rub it in everybody's face and turn down all their offers. I wouldn't sell him for anything. He spoke softly, not even realizing how much he had told her. He was comfortable around her, and he didn't know why. She wasn't anything like all the other girls he'd liked before. He wasn't even sure how he liked her yet, as a friend or as a woman. Suddenly, he smiled and burst into song. I've been watching you watching her watching herself in the mirror and her tailor made dress and long blonde hair and her big diamond rings and her custom made shoes. I can tell by the look on your face that your making your move. But she hasn't have time for a man that's tongue-tied and she doesn't like cowboys and she thinks less of fools. So boy don't you saddle yourself to a high-tone woman. She'll cut up your heart like an old credit card when the fun and the money runs out. I've never seen a up town, well-read thouroghbred, high tone woman sink as low as you. He sang out, his voice low and handsome as he hummed on.

"I wouldn't sell Chad for anything either,I'd sell my amazing dutch warmblood before I ever thought of selling this boy"I said petting him along his neck as he carried me and Colt.Hewas so strong,this was easy for him,to carry two people.I then softly said to Colt"wow,I cant believe how Ifirst thougth of you..Its weird.Now im comfortable with you,like I could tell you anything.While before i thought you were just one of those guys..who are just plain..jerks...but now its the total oposite,i feel so..free around you" Lindsay said hoping she hadnt seemed totally freaky.as he finishedthe song my moutch was lsightly open and I said"that was amazing".I could hardly talk as I rembered his voice,so beautiful so perfect.

Colt chuckled softly and nodded. I guess it's kinda wierd how you can see somebody so differently after a first impression. He said softly as he looked up at the sun, almost 5:30. He had to get home, although he really didn't want too. Well, it's getting late, I better get home, Novalle will be wondering where I am, and she'll throw a fit if I'm late for supper. He said as he looked back down the trail, it wouldn't get dark for a few more hours, but Novalle served dinner at 6:00 and if he was late he'd never hear the end of it, especially if she knew he'd been with a girl. He also had to feed Aztec and Valentine soon, otherwise they'd get cranky. He smiled at the thought of Valentine, she was the sweetest mare he'd ever known.

"yeah,thankfully you didnt follow my firstimpresion"Lindsay said softly."Novale..thatmust be your sister?"Iasked him..he has told me and ali he hada sister.but he hadnt given her name."Well,I should get home.Idon't feel like cooking thow..O well I gotta eat somehow because Ali never cooks..It might be considered work.She got a job thow..only b/c she gets payed"I said thinking of hownice it would be if Ali would do something..but god forbid Ali break a nail."I say we Canter the rest of tha way home?"I didnt even wait for him to respondi just slid my left leg back slightly and gave an almost silent kiss.Chad responeded imediatly with his breathtaking,beautiful canter.I new chad would need to get homein time,but truthfully staying there just talking with him would have been my choice of things to day.Maybe tommorow we could explore another trail..we arrieved at theend of the trail and I halted Chad and dismounted.I could walk the rest of the way,I figured Colt could to."Wanna ride with me tommorow?I have a few more horses that need excersise.Ill probably bring one of my mares.So dont worry aboutme bringing a stallion.Are you horses here tommorow,or should I bring a horse for you?"

Colt smiled again. Well, if you want, you can come to dinner with me, I'm sure Novalle won't mind. Yeah, she's my little sister. He spoke as he dismounted, and landed with a soft thud. He smiled again. Actually they came in today, and I wanted them to rest after the trip. Also, I wanted to check out the trails. His deep tones changed slightly, a bit lighter. I'd love to go riding with you tomorrow, I've got to go in the morning and look for a job, but, after that, I'm free all day. He said as he shoved his hands in his pockets, he was glad that he'd met her, she was cool and set his mind at ease.

"Dinner sounds good,Ill call Ali on my cell to see if shedoesnt mind me cooking her a late dinner..she should be fine with that,since that means she gets exactly what she wants.Besides I dont really wanna go deal with her..."I pulled out my cell from my saddle bag fliped it open and selcted Alison.I told her I was eating dinner at Colt's and I would be coming home later.Her reply was a whatever and then she hung up.Glad my sister is so nice I thought to myself."okay,lets go.Ill run Chad to the barn and slip the horses some grain,itll only take a few seconds i have there grains made up from this morning."I hand troted Chadback to the barn and on my way there yelled back"tommorow sounds grat!"when i got to the barn I quickly did chores.I soon came back,I had changed into a pair of levis,a halter top and I carried a sweater.It was what i had found in my saddle bag..obviously I didnt look at the shirt i threw in it,because this was one of my nice shirts."I'm ready"I said as I stopped at Colts side.

Colt smiled at the beautiful girl as she came back. You look great. He spoke in his usual voice, but their was a hint of something else in it, maybe it was affection, he still wasn't sure. Turning he moved towards his truck. He ran around and jumped in, then opened Lindsay's door for her. He cranked up the truck, and called. Hop in.

He smirked, and chuckled softly. Yep, I bet I look great, probably a pound of dirt and sweat on me after that ride. He laughed agian, he knew that he was handsome, and, while he was always arrogant and confident, he wasn't snobby. He didn't care what people thought though. Nobody had been there when he had needed someone, so, he didn't need anyone now. If he was nice to someone, he wanted to be, he didn't care about society's rules or being polite. Things like that just no longer applied to him. He'd stopped caring about society when he turned 17 . Life had knocked him down a lot, and no one had ever been there to pick him up, now, he was there to pick up Novalle at ever opportunity. He turned the truck onto the highway and headed towards his apartment, Novalle would probably have dinner on the table by now.
ooc: We can start postin under the apartments, it's called .:x:.D.inner.:x:.
