[atrb=background,http://i.imgur.com/P9oIb.png] Melissa sighed and smiled up at the sky. The light drizzle the gray, rain clouds let down fell on Melissa's face. "This is great weather for a ride, huh Drake STAFF POSITIONS " she asked her stallion as she gave him a gentle pat on his neck. It had been very humid earlier when Melissa was tacking up her Morgan stallion. Now that the rain was coming down in a light drizzle, the temperature had dropped a bit, allowing the trail ride to be more enjoyable. Drake tossed his head and let out a loud whinny. "You silly boy." Melissa laughed at her horse. She squeezed his sides and Drake began to trot down the forest trail. Lissa posted in the saddle to the rythym of Drake's trot, watching his shoulder to make sure she was in time with the gait. Trail rides were good oppurtunities for Mel to practice her posting and her control of the reins. It was also great for just a little relaxing ride to the creek. Melissa smiled and sped Drake up to a canter. There's bound to be some sort of fallen log up ahead. Maybe I could get Drake to jump that. After all, Cross Country can't be that different from Show Jumping. she thought as she cantered Drake down a side path that wound down to where the little stream was. We've always jumped the stream down there as well. She looked off to the side as she heard the whinny of another horse coming down the path. "Whoa." Melissa said quickly to Drake. Drake slowed into a walked and Mel moved him onto the other side of the path. As the sound of hoof beats began to grow the slightest bit louder with every second, Melissa began to wonder who the rider could be. It could be Logan. Or Felix. Or anybody! she thought with a little smile. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Words >> 318 Outfit >> [url=http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set STAFF POSITIONS id=55556840]Click

Dex's new shoes clipped at the trail as she pulled him back. "Not yet." The feminine whispered. The Arab snorted, as if wishing to disobey. Jade grinned, and stroked his bouncing neck as Dex pranced. As she looked up, the brunette looked around. Deer and birds scattered from their rests. "Running is more important then staying dry." Jade murmured to herself. Her slicker rubbed against the fabric, disturbing all silence. Omigod. She thought, shutting her eyes quickly.

Jade opened her eyes when Dex moved out below her. His ansiness disturbed her calmness. "Oh, fine." Jade sounded. She kicked Dex into gear, and he shot off like a bat out of hell. The brunette steadied her hat before positioning herself to go over a log. Soon, though, she pulled herself up, when another rider was visible. Jade gave the horse her space, and frowned as the rain turned into a pour.

[atrb=background,http://i.imgur.com/P9oIb.png] Melissa pulled her hood over her head as the rain began to pour down. Shoot. I was really hoping to get back before it poured, but I guess I'll have to take shelter in the over hand down there. she thought as she took a quick glance at the sky. The clouds were a very dark gray, not indicating that the rain would stop anytime soon. Might as well invite her to come with. Mel thought as she looked at the other rider. "Hey. There's an over hang down by the creek. If you want to get out of the rain and see if it stops, head down there." Lissa said to the girl before giving Drake's sides a quick squeeze. Drake's head snapped up and he began trotting down the path. As the log came into view, Melissa squeezed his sides again to get him into a canter. Drake made a clean jump over the log, despite the mud puddle that was on the other side. Melissa slowed him to a trot as they neared the cave. "Whoa." she said gently and pulled back on the reins. She released the reins and dismounted before grabbing onto Drake's reins to lead him into the over hand. It's a lot roomier than I remembered it being. she thought as she lead Drake into the back of the dry space. Lissa gave the stallion a pat on the neck. "Good boy." she said and rearranged his mane, fixing his bangs so they were under the ear band. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Words >> 261 Outfit >> [url=http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set STAFF POSITIONS id=55556840]Click

"Yeah, I actually hadn't even seen that." She laughed, slowing Dex down. They didn't need any incidents with the stud. Jade let her gelding trot over the log, and she stroked him as she dismounted. "Sure came out of nowhere, huh STAFF POSITIONS " Jade asked the girl, pulling the reins over Dex's head. She took over her hat, and shook her hair, hoping it would soon dry. "And it's been so nice lately..." Jade added, shaking her head. She sighed, and looked at the girl again. "I'm Jade. Jade Parks. I'm pretty new actually." Jade said as her phone buzzed. This time, she didn't even bother to answer it. It might have been from Scotty, about our date. Jade grinned, but didn't take it out. That would have been too rude, and she wasn't like that. The brunette looked out, puddles forming on the trail. "Crap..." Jade murmured, looking at the water. Dex'll hate that! But, she'd have to handle it. She wasn't one to run from a problem.

[atrb=background,http://i.imgur.com/P9oIb.png] Lissa smiled at the girl's comment about the weather being so nice. "I know right STAFF POSITIONS This downpour was really unexpected." she said. She watched the rain coming down on the trail outside, mud puddles forming. Well, we'll be stuck here for a while so we might as well get to know each other. Mel thought. "I'm Melissa Luxe. And that's such a coincidence because I've just arrived here like a few weeks ago." Melissa replied. She shook her head and pulled her damp hair back into a low ponytail. Wet hair is such a bother. she thought after her ponytail was finished. Melissa shoved her free hand into her pocket and sighed, holding onto Drake's reins gently. "So, what team are you on STAFF POSITIONS I'm a Fiden." Melissa said. She had already met someone from another team and they were good friends. And I've heard that Scotty's been going out with a girl. Good for him. she thought happily. It was good to know her friend was happy. Drake suddenly pushed his nose against Lissa's shoulder, snapping her out of her thoughts. He rubbed his nose up and down. "Silly boy. Using me as a scratching post." she laughed as she gently scratched his itchy nose. Drake let out a loud sigh of happiness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Words >> 223 Outfit >> [url=http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set STAFF POSITIONS id=55556840]Click
