{Haha, I probably SHOULDN'T be on here... I need to be analyzing some motif in Julius Caesar... lol}
Sean worked up quite a sweat, but he pulled on the reins, causing Andrew to laugh. He had the gelding walk for a few minutes, and he looked towards the other two girls. Noticing one was watching him, he waved with one hand, still holding tight on the reins with the other. Normally Sean was fairly quiet, but today he was an exception.
Roxanne cantered a figure eight back in the ring, then slowed to a trot and popped over a small grid. It was easy and she and her horse met the spots nicely. Then she continued cantering to a 2'6" coop, soaring over it with ease, and next a four strided line at 3'. Rio cleared them easily, but Roxanne noticed that her leg was swinging slightly in the air. She sighed, hating it when her brother was right. She quickly shortened her stirrups and then cantered up to a 3'3" oxer. Hardly intimidated, the pair cleared it in style. Roxanne gave the gelding a pat and dropped back to a walk, unbuckling her GPA's chinstrap.

Mia waved back, blushing slightly, before cantering her horse up towards a log jump. They cleared it easily, and she circled back to Mandy.

Andrew smiled and turned Sean away, his mind wandering. He had meant to say hello to Kaleigh earlier, but he had forgotten in his ever constant quest to bug Roxanne. He would have to make a point to do so later. Nudging Sean back into a balanced canter, he pointed the gelding to a line of jumps - a three foot tall tire jump, followed by seven strides to a short drop into the shallow lake. He held the dark bay together, and had him jump into the line deep, then on the other side he sat up and collected the horse's stride. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... He let his hands follow the gelding's mouth a bit on the drop, but since it was only a few feet tall, he had no trouble regaining balance. Sean happily cantered through the water and up the other sandy bank, prancing slightly. Andrew patted the gelding, then trotted him back towards the barn, noticing that the gelding was definitely more relaxed now than when he'd started.
