.::.When I Met You Girl My Heart Went Knock Knock.::.
----------------------------------------------- Jason stepped out of his truck, blue jeans and a black t-shirt on. It was a nice day and he figured it was time to ride. It was only his second day at Pinewood, and he knew that Winchester and Jay Cee must be getting restless. He shut the door to his dodge truck and made his way to the barn isle. As he walked down the isle he noticed two roan horses looking at him, ears perked.
The first one he came to was a blue roan gelding. His face was mostly black with a white star, and a deep black mane and tail. He has black points, in other words, black socks that ran up to his knees. The horse stood 15.3 hh and was an amazing horse. The stall was labeled with the name 'Winchester', though his Registered name was 'Winchester's Got Guns'. Jason loved it, of course he is the one that made it up. Jason has had the gelding since he was born. He came out of his dads mare, and Jason loved everything about him. The gelding nudged Jason's hand, wanting treats. Unfortunately Jason forgot to grab any so he just scratched his forehead and moved to to the other horse.
In the next stall stood a 15.2 hh red roan mare. The stall was labeled with the name Jay Cee, which was way off from her Registered name 'Lady of dreams." Jason did not pick this one out, but he still loved the horse. She was his new project. Winchester was trained fully, and Jason needed a challenge. He scratched the mare's forehead and grabbed the halter off the hook next to the stall door. He slipped it on the mare and walked her to the cross ties. He then went back and got Winchester, tyeing him next to her.
He then proceeded to groom out both the horses and saddle them up in his western gear. Lastly he went and got his helmet and walked both the horses out to the western arena, one horse on each side. He walked them both in, tyeing Winchester to a fence post inside the arena. He was going to work Jay Cee first knowing she needed more work. He grabbed his helmet and put it on before he mounted up in the saddle. He hatted wearing a helmet, but it better too look smart then worry about looks.
He then began to walk the horse around the arena, getting her to flex her head. He made her sidepass down the arena, keeping her head bent, trying to make her move off his legs. She was still a greenbroke mare, so he kept his guard up. The mare seemed to be listening, keeping her head bent and giving to the leg pressure. Once in a while Jason would look and check on Winchester, who just seemed content on standing. Sure, winchester was his favorite out of the two horses, but it was only cause he has a good connection with the gelding, having him since he was a foal.
He just kept getting her to bend and move off his leg. If she was going to be any kind of barrel horse, she was going to need to learn these things. Next he made her bend around one of the barrels set up, making her do a even circle around it. Training was boring, but it paid off in the end.

ZOEE
Zoe eyes opened to the glemming sun shining through the open window, she rolled over groaning before sitting up. She had alot of work today, she was going to try and ride King western today, she tryd many times before but he still hasnt gotten used to the saddle. Zoe scrached her head before getting out of the bed, she reached for the blankets and pulled them up to the pillows, making one side of the bed Zoe walked to the bathroom, she was tierd. Zoe brushed her hair before slipping into a pair of light blue jeans with a hold in the knee and a dark blue tee shirt with a small pocket in the front. Zoe walked down three stairs before stopping in the living room door way, she smiled seeing Chester laying on his large dog bed in the middle of the floor. Zoe watched him get up, his tail moved side to side as she aproched her. Zoe scrached his head before walking into the kitchen the large furry dog following at her heels.
Zoe smiled down to him before ripping open a bag of dog food, she grabbed the scoop and scooped out two scoops of the dog food. Zoe smiled, There boy, she said walking to the counter she leaned on it before grabbing a bowl and setting in down on the counter. She then went to the cubboard and grabbed the box of honey nut cherros and pouring some into the bowl. Zoe then got the milk out and pourd some in. She ate her food before fixxing up and rushing to the door, she grabbed the truck keys and waited for Chester. Zoe walked out the door as chester ran to the truck. Zoe got in letting chester in the back, she smiled starting the engine. Zoe pulled out of the drive way she drove down to the stables, looking back to keep an eye out just in case Chester desided he was going to walk there.
Zoe Smiled as she pulled up at the stables, she looked around before parking the truck, she looked at Chester as she ran out into the barn. Zoe got out locking the truck, she smiled and walked into the barn, she looked around and her lungs filled with horse sent. Zoe walked down the isle untill she came to the first stall, in it was a stallion. He was painted brown with white spashes down his legs. Zoe smiled scraching his muzzle. She garbbed the leather halter from beside his stall and slipped it on him, doing up the chin strap. Zoe walked him out clipping him to the cross ties she brushed him down and brushed out his mane before grabbing the new western saddle. King snorted as she saw the sadle coming towards him. Oh how he hated the feel of that thing. Zoe calmed and reasured him before tacking him up. King bobbed his head and side steped uneasyly.
Zoe walked him half in and half out of the arena. she mounted him swinging smoothly into the saddle she looked at the guy who was also working his horses. Zoe could feel the tenton Kings body gave off. She walked him around once before he started to back up on his own and throw his head. Zoe scolded the horse as he began his tantrum. Zoe sighed holding the reins and gathering some mane. She could feel his large body lift from the ground as he hopped up and then down he went. Zoe pulled the right rein tight making him go in a circle before he was a little calmer. She asked him for a canter. He had alreayd worked up a sweat, she felt him stop and then his body posture change, he shook his head then up came his front hooves frm the ground. Zpe grabbed onto his mane leaning forward she managed to stay on that time.

Jason sat on the mare, making her bend her head into his leg. Flexing was important for what he did with his horses. She was getting it down fast, and soon just bend with the slightest touch. He then let her have her head and made her do a nice slow western jog around the arena.
He glanced at the gate as he heard it open, then glanced to winchester. The geldings head was up, ears perked. Jason knew he wasn't going to do anything, so he just kept working with the mare. He had on light spurs so the mare listened intently, not wanting to be punished. Jason then asked for a canter and the mare glided into the canter, popping her but up slightly. Jason grabbed the inside reins and made her to a one rein stop. The mare slid to a stop, and Jason made her go back into the canter, this time she did nothing.
Jason kept a eye on the other girl as she rode around. He could tell the horse was tense under her, and was hoping for not accidents. Jay Cee was getting tense from the vibes, but Jason kept her calm. He walked her around one more time then decided it was time to switch horses. He walked up to the gelding on the rail, dismounting the mare. He then slipped the halter off Winchester and put it on Jay Cee. The then bridled the gelding and mounted up on him.
As he started to walk around with the gelding, he noticed the girls horse starting to act up. He jogged winchester around, keeping his eyes on the girl. Soon her horse was off the ground, but the girl stayed on. He jogged up to the girls horse after she did a circle with him and right when he got there he saw the horse go again. He grabbed the reins quickly, reining his horse to a stop. "Easy kiddo." His voice was calm and gentle. Winchester just stood, head low. He had a hold of the girl's horses reins. He looked at the girl, glancing her over. "You ok?"

Zoe looked around holding on she was deturnmen to stay on and not let go untill he stooped acting up, she watched as the guy changed horses as King snorted and eyes the mare. He was a stud, and very stubborn. Zoe felt him shift and brake out cantering, she soon felt him come to a light stop as the guy who had been in the ring, probley watching what happend, now had a hold of her horses reins. Zoe looked at him, his words she couldnt hear untill she cought, the 'are you okay' part. Zoe smiled, Im fine, hes just not used to this saddle yet, she said looking up at him, her bright blue eyes meeting with him before looking at his horse. Pretty stud, she thought, she didnt know if the horse was castrated or not. So she would call him a stud for now.
Zoe looked back to him as King just kept throwing his head and snorting, King stomped his foot, showing a sign of impacance. She should have just rode him english, but oh well it all ready said and done, nothing she could fix about it now.
