Jess zipped up the down vest she had on. The logo for Ringtail ranch on the back. Her parents cattle ranch down in Texas. She had been forced to come here with her brother who was the new Director of Riding. Their bribe had been to get her a beautiful Warmblood gelding before they had sent her away. Access Denied was her pride and joy. Pitch black and tall. 16.3 hh at the minimum. That was who she was working now. Jess had taken Bear intot he indoor arena that thankfully had a jumping course set up.
She led the gelding into the arena without even touching him or the reins. Setting her helmet on the mounting block she tightened the girth and mounted. settling comfortably into her new top notch saddle she pushed Bear into a walk. After a round or two she squeezed him into a trot. His strides were huge and Jess had to work at slowing him and shortenign his strides but soon they were elegenatly crusing aroudn the arena.

He had stood there for a while with his mare in hand, she was already tacked up and ready for a ride. He didn't know what he was going to do but it was going to be something. He sighed and well looked at the ground. He just wanted to go home, he knew nothing about anything really. He didn't care, Elliot just wanted to have some fun. He rode into the ring ,and made a loud sound. He was always joking around, he was such a player.

Jess moved Bear into a canter after trotting both ways and then sent him over one of the cross poles. He jumped it liek he was bored and he should be. After a few more warm up jumps Jess pointed him towards the bigger ones. A three foot, green, white and blue oxar stood infront of them. She urged him on and he soared over it. Landing nimbly and slowing to a walk at Jess's request. She hadn't even noticed a guy enter on horseback until he whistled. Jess raised her eyes brow at hima nd smirked. "I'm Jess, who're you?" she asked sweetly. She liked to flirt. It was in her nature.

He looked at the girl, as she seemed to almost not notice them. The mare snorted, and pulled forward but his hands would not give. "We will jump in a moment." he said softly to the horse. He watched and took a deep breathe when she spoke, "I'm Elliot, nice to meet you." he said as he clucked to his mare, she was moving into a fast pace canter. Elliot was taking the mare towards the highest jump, about five foot or more. It was a white & green oxar like the rest of the jumps, the mare snorted and pinned her ears back. Feet flying from the ground, as she jumped over it. Elliot was more like whistling as they jumped, the mare landed on the ground and as soon as she did , she was pulled into a trot.

Jess brought Bear into the center to watch as Elliot went aroudn on his mare. She was a beautiful horse. Jess smiled when they took the largest oxar. They went over it together in perfect form. Jess admired that in them. When they were done she pushed Bear back into a canter. She angled him towards a United States flag vertical. They took it with ease before turnign to a four foot liverpool and flying over that. As she pulled Bear into a trot she turned ehr attention back to Elliot. "Beautiful mare you got, whats her name?" she asked as she tightened her grip ont he now hyper mare crazy Bear. He may be a gelding but he sure didn't think that.

He watched as they made a jump as well, he loved to push his mare. Right now she was standing still and shaking, he gave her a pat and clucked to her. Moving in a walk towards the other pair, "Steel Lass, what is the name of your gelding." he said as he looked at her, he took a deep breathe and sighed. The mare snorted softly, and moved her her close to the geldings.

Jess listened to Elliot while watching Bear sidle up close to the mare and nicker softly to her. Jess just laughed at them and then looked up at Elliot. "His show name is Access Denied, but i jsut call him Bear," she told him and looked at the pair again. Bear was snorting at her and trying to nibble on the bridge of her nose. The stupid gelding was gonna get his ass kicked one day.

Steel Lass nickered back, but snorted after wards. She took a couple of steps backwards, and Elliot looked at Jess. "She is such a flirt." he said as he patted the mare, she looked back to him before taking a step towards the gelding. She began to nibble on his mane, before snorting. He looked to the ground, and back up to her. His brown hair was in a mow-hawk it wasn't his choice but he didn't care, he looked at her with his sweet smile.

Jess laugehd and nodded. "Yeah, Bear jsut wishes he were a stallion," she told him with a lugh. the two horses made her so happy. The fall weather forgotten. Jess smiled before turning to the rail again. "So are you new to this school also?" she asked over her shoulder. She had to jump him a bit more before they could chat all day.

He watched her and sighed, he looked around to the jumps. "I bet." he said as he laughed softly. The mare snorted and started to pull away, "Both new, and yea. Looks like somebody wants to jump. Talk later?" he said as he noticed it seemed like thats what she wanted to do as well.

Jess laugehd and nodded. "Yeah me too, my brother is the riding director, he's a pain in the ass too," she todl him and pushed Bear into another slow canter. She nodded with a smile. "Yeah, later," she mumbeld as Bear jumped over a stone wall. He was her amazing partner. she smield and patted his neck as he turned towards the 5 foot oxar. Bear made to leap ove rit then stopped suddenly. He ahd never refused before. JEss flew over his head and crashed itnot he poles. She closed her eyes and rolled but a moan still fell from her lips as she lay by Bear.

He was really taking the mare around the ring, before jumping her over the low jumps. He took a deep breathe and sighed, and looked at the ground, but he heard something. He pulled up his mare, before she could jump. He took a deep breathe as he saw her on the ground, he jumped off the mare and moved towards her. "Are you alright?" he said as he looked at her, and looked at the gelding. His mare was following him slowly.

Jess gave a groan and sat up. Her head spinnign wildly. This is why her brother had always said put a helmet on. Hers was still sitting on the mountign block. Jess swallowed a feelign of nausea and tried to stand. Swaying incredibly and puttign ehr hands out for balance. "Yeah, never been better," she said and laughed lightly.

He watched her, he never rode with a helmet. It wasn't him to do so, unless he had to. He took a deep breath and sighed, he watched her stand. He grabbed her hands when she put them out there, he sighed. "Yea your brother is gonna kill you now huh?" he said as he looked at her.

Jess laughed lightly and smiled hwen he grabbed her hands. She squeezed his in a silent thanks. "Deffinatly, although he never has to know," she todl him. Looking pointedly at him with raised eyebrows. MArcus would spaz at her and freak out, probably in front of half the students. Then she'd ignore him and he'd be pissed she was undermining a teachers authority.
