It was definitely a pretty chilly day when the young Blakeley Davis arrived at Crossfire Farms. Her parents had dropped her off in front of the barn where her horses awaited her. The two of her boys had been dropped off the day before by a family friend that lived in the area. Blakeley was glad that she didn't have the hassle of unloading the animals and settling them in. She missed them dearly, but she didn't like having to move them from place to place. This was already the fifth barn that she had been at in the last seven months. Money was a little tighter now that her little brother was going through some rough patches in his life, and that little fact had forced her to switch barns often in search of a better deal. It wasn't cheap boarding two horses at nice place. However expensive it may be, Blake was not willing to get rid of her horses no matter what. She had already dropped off the face of the earth in the horse world for a good chunk of time. She had quit to support her brother, but now that he was back on his feet, it was time for her to get back to her passion. Her poor horses had been neglected for a long period of time when all her attention was on Justin. She felt bad never being able to see them, but for some reason she felt that they would understand that her brother needed her more than they did. Anywho, she was glad to be back and she was ready to work to gain lost ground.
Blake hummed a tune as she made her way into the barn. It smelled delightfully of horse sweat and manure. She never thought that she would actually come to appreciate those smells. It just felt so good to be back, so she was drinking in every single detail. She looked down at her cell phone at the text message her father had sent her. stall numbers 354 and 355. She looked around curiously and quickly spotted the small head of her one year old Paint colt poking barely over the stall door. She laughed at his obvious attempt to see his owner. The little guy was a handful. He was out of one of Blake's grandfather's champion sires, so she was pretty excited to see how he would do as a show horse. Blake strictly showed in reiging. She had dabbled in English riding as a child, but now she was dead set on a career in reigning. Something about it just drew her in. It was almost like a drug for her.
Blake was snapped out of her thoughts by the shrill whinny of another horse. She looked to her left and saw the refined head of her black and white Paint gelding, Tequila. She smiled to herself and reached out a hand to pet the good boy. Tequila was her very first horse ever, and they shared a special bond. They got along great, both in the arena and out. Their personalities meshed very well, whereas the young Vee and Blake did not. The colt was hyper and unpredictable, but Blake was willing to put in the work to make him the best he could be. She grabbed the small, royal blue halter from its hook outside the stall and easily put it on the young blue roan's head. Vee snorted anxiously as she pulled him out and tied him in the cross ties. He was just now getting used to the ropes that held him in place. He didn't ncecessarily like them, but he tolerated them for a brief amount of time. Blake grabbed her bucket of brushes and began to groom the small colt, all the while singing a song to herself. The lyrics were one that she had just written the night before. She had yet to write a melody for it, so she just improvised as she went. Her voice rang out, soft and sweet, through the barn. She had an amazing voice that would make anybody stop and listen. She had a passion for music that was almost equal to her passion of horses. If she ever had to choose, she honestly doubted she would be able to decide.
