She'd been her may be two weeks now at R.R.A. and she still wasn't very settled. She liked being away from home but she hated the fact that she wasn't closer to Skitz's grave. She could remember the first week after he died she sat out there, next to his tombstone. She decorated around it with flowers, brought out his halter, his bridle, little necessities he had that she could afford to lose. Although when she moved she did keep his bridle with her, leaving his halter and other smaller things behind. Things did seem to get better for Rina after she was given Tay. He wasn't a bad horse or anything , she just wasn't over Skitz yet. There would never be another horse like that in a lifetime, but for now she could deal with temptaytion, even if he was a little brat sometimes. Once she approached the gelding's stall his head peered up and he nickered. Carina chuckled softly walking into the stall and cross tying him put before going to the tack room grabbing her bareback pad, blanket bridle and brushes. She set everything next to his stall and came back in with a brush, dragging it quickly over the mud cakes patches on his bay coat. " Dear lord you're filthy. You need a bath, Tatertot." She exited the stall grabbing the pick and cleaned out his hooves, which really weren't that bad in the first place. once she was done she grabbed his bell boots that matched the color of his saddle pad and threw those on him, and the bareback pad. Then she peered out the door and reached to grab the bridle, which she did. She untangled the mess it was in and threw it on him.This bridle was Skitz's old show bridle, but Carina just used it as a work bridle since her parents bought her newer tack for Tay. Once she was done she walked him out of the stall and outside. Once she got there she swung herself on, putting her feet in the fake plastic stirrups and trotted off. This was something she hadn't done in a while, riding in the bareback pad. Though it wasn't much of a bareback anything since it did have stirrups on it. Well for riding tay she needed them. Especially since he could be pretty unpredictable in a new place. He wasn't bad, it was just he got bored and decided acting up would be much more convenient than behaving. After a while of going through the trails she found herself at the lake and once they reached it she walked Tay up to the shore line, took off her shirt, leaving her in a strapless yellow bikini top and a pair of jean shorts and then kicked her boots and socks off, throwing them in the same general area as her shirt, while staying on Tay. Then she pulled her stirrups off, threw them somewhere and trotted him forward. Once she could feel the water she smiled to herself, watching Tay's worried reaction the whole time. the gelding stopped once it reached his chest. " Stop being a baby, you wuss." She laughed, knowing if anyone was around they'd probably look at her like she was stupid for talking to her horse. She added a little bit of leg pressure and finally he went forward to the point where just his big head was poking up. words: 591 - tags: open^^ - outfit: link |
