Tyler nodded. "In fact, why don't you just ride him on your own. If I'm allowed, I can ride Titan until he calms down." Tyler offered, looking at the sweaty, prancing horse. "And yes, Dressage horses tend to be very calm. He also has a calm disposition, which helps. West is a great horse." Tyler smiled slightly, dismounting so Abby could ride him. "Also, if it's not okay for me to Ride Titan, I'll just lead him while I walk on the ground. It's okay, he will calm down."

she finally found a genuine smile under all the pressure she had been given lately. she just nodded, slid off Titan's back, and handed Tyler the reins. "sometimes he only lets me ride. sometimes its only me and children. sometimes its anyone he's around. just give him a second before you get on." she watched as Titan snorted and tried to rear. Abby shook her head. "i think it's a no go." she knew him too well. "its an 'only Abby day' as some of my friends call it." she turned to West. she looked up at the huge black horse and her jaw dropped. "how am i supposed to get on?" she laughed as she tried to jump mount but only ended up back where she started- the ground. she then turned her eyes to Tyler and sighed.

Tyler looked at Titan, gholding him calmly as he reared. "Let me try.. please. If he bucks me off, I'll just lead him." He offered a tiny smile, then laughed at her attempt to get onto West. "Here. Stump." He pointed at a giant stump about gen feet away. It must've belonged to a big tree. He pet Titan for a second, talking very calmly. Tyler looked into his eyes, murmuring, "I won't hurt you, boy." He then hopped on very caustiously, his seat light. He didn't out any pressure on the reins, and stroked Titans neck all well talking calmly.

Titan snorted nerviously and tossed his head. Abby led West to the stump and climbed up. "hey now im your hight!" she said with a smile when she looked at Tyler. she hopped on easier but still had a little bit of trouble. she looked down at the stump and a flood of memories flew through her mind that she wasn't prepared for. tears started to attack her eyes and she blinked, trying to get them to go away but they wouldn't. she looked away and a tear slid down her face. she wiped it off and pet West. she leaned forward and whispered "good boy" in his ear. "Be good" she called to Titan who was stomping his hooves and pawing at the ground. Titan's head shot up and he walked over to her, nuzzling her as if asking for her back. "both of you" she said with a grin. her face fell when Titan backed up. she knew what was coming. "watch out! he's gunna kick!" as soon as the words came from her mouth, he gave a small rear, but it was enough for Abby to fear about what could happen to Tyler. Tyler... why did she keep thinking about him. yes, he was riding with her, but why did she feel like they could be more? she instantly pushed the thought away. we'll just be friends for now and if something happens then, yay for us.

Tyler hung on, sitting the rear... astonishingly well. He soothingly stroked Titans neck more, guiding him over to stand directly beside West so that Abby was right near him. "Let's try walking, that will help him to move his feet." Tyler murmured, not even squeezing the horses flanks. He just loosened his body, letting Titan go

she just nodded in response. "i know this may be a weird qestion to ask since we just met but..." she looked at him "how old are you? just curious" she added. then she added again "i'm 19" she pet West and then reached over to Titan and did the same, nearly sliding off in the process. Titan snorted when she pet him then moved closer when she slid, closing the gap between her and Tyler. "know what else i noticed?" she asked as she looked at him "my last name is your first name." she tried a different way of petting Titan from her spot on West, but it just ended up with her awkwardly sliding off the side of West. "whoops" she tried to right her self but she couldn't. West was too tall. or Titan was too short. either way, she had a hard time getting her self up again.

Tyler glanced at the girl. "I'm 21" he said quietly, all while siting loosely and petting Titan. When the girl reached over to pet her horse Tyler stopped, not wanting to get in her way. "Ahh. That is ... interesting." He murmured, remembering what she said her last name was. As she tried to pet Titan again to help clam him, West heaved a sigh and sidestepped towards the horse, making sure his rider didn't fall off. He looked up at Tyler, then used his neck to help Abby get back up easier. Tyler smiled slightly, relaxing a little more when he knew his horse was right there for him

she giggled when West helped her up. Abby looked up at the sky. she sunset was sending pink and orange rays onto the purple clouds. she sighed as she watched the clouds move above her. "i've always love the clouds. it's is the one thing that requires nothing but open eyes." she whispered she guided West to the edge of the woods "we made it!" she laughed then hopped off West, nearly falling backward. "your so tall. i look like an amature trying to ride you" she smiled at the horse. Titan head butted her softly and nickered. she held on to West as she hugged her beloved horse. "good boy to you too, Mr. Bratty pants" she rubbed his ears as she whispered to him. she looked up a Tyler. "thank you for taking him. i really appreciate it" she smiled at him.

Tyler glanced upward, the orange reflecting off his dark eyes. "They are beautiful." He murmured, glancing at the girl. "Ahh yes, we are back." He grinned, hopping off Titan rather... quickly. He walked over and took West, laughing at her comment. "Your welcome. It was my pleasure." His handsome features lightened, and he tipped his hat to her before leading Wild West into the Stable and feeding him his grain.

Abby always smiled, but only a handful of people actually saw her give a real, beautiful smile. she hesitated to ask him something then decided against it. sh sighed and followed Tyler to the barn, passing him into the next stall and taking care of her horse. she glanced at him a few times, for some reason, hoping that he would somehow know and look back.
