Caleb sat on the fence watching the mare play around. She'd seen the jump and sniffed it a couple of times. She was now cantering around. The jump was only a small cross rail but angel leaped over it, over jumping it hugely. Angel had jumped up to almost the full hight of the wings. Caleb watched a little shocked |

Taylor worked with Domino, the song, Pretty Girls played over and over 6 times before she let Domino stop. Their routine wasn't anywhere close to perfect, but it was getting there. They had two more weeks till the show anyway. Taylor brought Domino back to the barn, untacked him and fed him. She then fed the calf, feeding her herself, as always. Taylor thought about going for a night swim. She went for a night swim every now and then, but it was considered a rare event for her now. Maybe she'd go for one tonight. |

Caleb want on a walk along the lake shore. He didn't have much else to do so he skipped some rocks along the water. He saw a fish jump out and took a photo. He was good at taking photos of things. He sat there fiddling with a rock before skipping it and getting a stick and carving it |

Taylor cleaned up from feeding the calf, and then went back to the house and got her swimsuit on, not bothering to put her shorts on as she was just going out to the lake at night, alone. She ran back out to the barn and bridled Houdini up. She walked him out of the barn and swung herself up onto his back. Taylor kicked Houdini up into a trot and made her way over to the lake. When she got there it was dark, but she could see the outline of a boy near the shore where she normally went to swim. As she got closer she realized it was Caleb. "Caleb? What are you doing out here?" she asked dismounting Houdini and tieing him up to a tree. Taylor was vaguely aware of the lack of clothing she had on, only wearing her little forest green bikini. But it was too dark for anyone to notice, so she didn't overthink it. |

Caleb noticed her "thinking" he said. Honestly he was trying to remember what people said he forgot. He looked back at her "what are you doing out here?" He asked standing up. He had his compression shirt and jeans on. Of course with his cowboy hat |

Taylor stepped towards Caleb. She noticed the compression shirt outlining every muscle, and forced herself to look away from his gorgeous chest, and look at his even more captivating face. Butterflies arose him her stomach. "Um, I was just gonna go for a swim." she said, "Do you mind?" she added. |
|

Caleb looked at her. He only just noticed what she was wearing. He looked away. "I don't mind. I can go if you want" he said politely. Swimming sounded like a good idea but he still wasn't allowed to. |

"Nah, its okay, I don't mind. It'd be nice to have someone to talk to for once too." she said with a smile and turned to the water and walked into the cool lake. She got shoulder deep before letting her head slip under, only to come up moments later. Taylor turned back to shore and swam back, finding a nice smooth rock to prop herself up on. She laid on her front facing Caleb, the moonlight shining down on her and the lake, making her wet hair and skin shimmer along with the lake. She smiled up at Caleb. "Why'd you trust me with Whiskey?" she asked curiously. The rock was close enough to the shore for them to talk in normal voices, but not close enough for them to touch. |

Caleb kept carving the stick only slightly looking up when she spoke. "Whiskey trusts you. He don't trust many people" he said honestly. He tried not to look at Taylor as much as possible but stole little glances. She was truely a beautiful person. The air had cooled off a lot and they should go back to their houses/cabins soon. |

Taylor nodded thoughtfully. "Well he's a great horse, I really enjoy riding him" she said with a smile, letting herself stare at the beautiful boy. It was getting pretty late, and the air grew cold. So Taylor decided to get out. Taylor left her spot on the rock and swam gracefully over to the shore and walked out of the lake. Droplets of lake water clung to her skin, making her sparkle, and shiver in the cold. Foolishly, she had forgotten a towel. "Damnnit..." she cursed to herself under her breath when she realized this, so she would just hafta be cold. Taylor untied Houdini from the tree, shivering and shaking from the cold with goosebumps all over her body. |
