Abby watched Ashely sooth her horse. That was always one of the first things you wanted to try to do when your horse was agitated. Her horse especially seamed to hate confinements. Abby had already seen that the gelding hated trailers. As Ashley led him out backwards from the trailer, Abby watched, all the while patting her mare.
Once the gelding was out of the trailer, Abby turned so that she was facing the way they were going to be headed, and also keeping an eye on the two. She felt Withdrawal nudge her in the back when she didn't move right away. Laughing a bit, she rubbed the mare's forehead as she watched the gelding nickering and quivering.
Once the pair had reached Abby and Withdrawal, Abby walked forward. The mare stayed right next to her, every so often looking over at the gelding. As they walked, Abby watched Ashely and the gelding. She saw that they had a bond that took lots of trust and time to build. She wanted to make that bond grow and help Ashley get over what ever was bother her that made her come here.
As Ashley removed the lime green attire from her horse, Abby watched her mare trot around the paddock. She listened the the gelding nickering to Withdrawal and smiled. The mare hadn't been with someone new in a while and Abby knew that the mare would try everything to make friends with the gelding.
Once the two were in the paddock and racing around it, Abby watched them for a few moments then turned and faced Ashley. Shall we head back to my house or do you want to stay out here?

Ashley had left the lime green attire on a pile on the ground where she had tied her horse to the ground and watched as he had quickly raced off. Ashley watched with much intrest to see how the two would get along. She just hoped Ireland would not hurt the mare, or the mare him.
As she had heard Abby, Ashley herself turned around and shook her head. Somewhat in a trance as well as a daze, she had only heard the last words in which she had spoken. Or was it just words. "Sorry what did you ask?"
ooc:// sorry to keep you waiting, just got into college again and all that jazz.

Abby watched Ashley drop her horse's attire to the ground. The lime green stood out against the light brown ground. Out of the corner of her eye, Abby saw the gelding go racing into the paddock. Turning her full attention to the two horses, she smiled. They looked so free, so care free. Abby sighed and leaned against the bars that surrounded the paddock. She lifted her right foot and rested it on the bottom bar.
She watched her mare race around the paddock then slide to a stop in front of the gelding. The mare reached out and blew into his face then took off again. Abby chuckled and smiled at how the two were acting.
Out of the corner of her eye, Abby saw Ashley turn around and shack her head. Abby turned also and looked at the girl. Sorry what did you ask? Abby leaned against the rails and asked her question again. Shall we head back to my house or do you want to stay out here? She pushed herself off the railing and took a few steps away, waiting for Ashley's reply.

Ashley herself had to think for a moment or two. Should she stay out and watch the two or should she head back to the house with Abby. The two horses seemed to be gathering themselves alright and seemed okay to be left alone. Ashley bent down and picked up the lime green attire. 'I'll go back with you I guess." Ashley spoke and as she had rose from her squating position let out a moan as she stood straight up now. Brushing her knees off.

Abby watched the horses race around the paddock as she waited for Ashley to decide. The two were getting along really well considering Withdrawal was normally extremely territorial. Abby smiled, and looked over at Ashley. She saw her picking up the lime green attire and so she stepped away from the railing.
I'll go back with you I guess. Abby nodded and then headed towards the house. Looking back, she stopped and waited for Ashley to catch up with her.

it took Ashley a few minutes to gather up all the attire that Breeze of Ireland had on, but after some time, Ashley managed to hold it all together and carry it either in her hands or under her arms. She jogged and caught up with Abby after a little while and stopped for a second at her truck and pulled out a locker as she had stuffed Ireland's belongings and then locked it and followed Abby into the house.
Ashley moved around and waited. There still seemed to be a bit of tension in the air from the previous or was it just Ashley's mind playing those evil games again. "So Abby Do I have a job as a stable hand or no?"

It took Ashley a few moment to gather the attire. Abby stood waiting calmly as she gathered it. She stuffed it under her arms and grasped it in her hands. Abby leaned down and fixed her shoe lace. As soon looked up, she saw Ashley jogging towards her. Abby straitened up and brushed her knees off. Once Ashley had caught up with her, Abby turned and followed after her.
As Ashley stopped at her truck to drop off the attire, Abby stopped. Once the attire was stowed away, she walked with Ashley to the house. Once they were inside, Abby closed the door. Some of the previous tension was still in the air but it was oldish. So Abby Do I have a job as a stable hand or no? Abby thought for a moment before she answered. Maybe. I just need to talk with my head stable hand.

Ashley looked to Abby and nodded. 'When do I know if I have a job or not?" Ashley questioned sort of shifting back and forth on her feet. A bit uneasy on the subject. Yet she did not want to tell Abby she hated not doing something. Even if it was something small, Ashley did not mind. She could survive working with Ireland all day, but that only lasted so long before it got old. Ashley gave Abby a warm sort of smile and waited, wondering, hoping it would not be long.

Abby felt Ashley's eyes on her and turned her head slightly to catch her nod. When do I know if I have a job or not? Abby reached her hand up and tapped on her chin, counted days in her head. She was trying to remember that last time she had had a meeting with Mick about the farm. The only thing she really remembered was that it was a long time ago.
Well probably sometime near the end of the week. I'm going to have a meeting with Mick sometime this week and i'll bring it up then and see if he needs any help. Removing her hand from her chin, she looked at Ashley. As she watched her, she saw a warm smile spread across Ashley's face. Have you gotten settled in and unpacked yet? Abby finally asked. She felt restless and wanted to do something.

Ashley returned her gaze back toward the young girl. Listening to her words and nodding a bit. "Alright, then I guess I will wait to hear from you. " Ashley spoke as she had looked toward the girl and seemed to pounder what she asked. Readlly Ashley had not come with much. Maybe a suitcase or two of clothes and items she wanted to keep and the rest was in the trailer and it was all her riding gear. 'No I have not, I guess I will go and do that." Ashley said looking to the girl and strightening up as she turned around and headed out of the house toward her vehicle and then pulled open the truck door and pulled out two suitcases with a moan as she put them on the ground and pulled out a small bag and then shut and locked the truck and picked her suitcases up.
