Ok, so my charrie (horse:Sky ) and your(Splashy) charrie (human)were at the horse fair. Sky was tied to a post and was slowly calming down whilst you were sitting in a chair wondering how you would get her in the trailer.

"Hey girl." Leah mummered to Sky, her pale hand inching closer to the mare. "Its ok." A wisper escaped Leah's mouth. "Its ok." She repeated, this time her voice nearly inaudible. Blue eyes wandered the area, spotting her trailer not to far away. Leah wondered how long it would be intill she was home with her new horse. Would she have to stay here all night?

Sky looked at her on her end of the rope. Her ears flicked towards her as she spoke, listening to the softening words as they rolled off her lips. Her eyes were no longer wide but a faint hint of a sweta remained on her coat.

Leah noticed the mare was calming down alot, but she knew it most likely was still not enough to get Sky in the trailer. She hadn't even been able to touch her mare yet. The small hand moved a bit closer to Sky, hopeing soon she would be able to stroke her mare. If she could do that, there was a chance that later on she could actually take the lead rope, and walk around with Sky.

Sky concentrated on Leah. She saw that she didn't want to hurt her and that if she wanted to hurt her she would have already done it by now. She took a small step towards her, but it was enough to make the leadrope slacken.

"Good girl Sky." Leah wispered noticeing the mare had moved forward. Leah's hand move only a tiny bit closer this time, knowing that Sky's step made up for the rest that her hand didn't move. Leah's eyes softened a bit as she focused on her mare, maybe it wouldn't take as long as she expected to get the mare into her trailer.

Sky looked at Leahs' soft face and blinked. She snorted quietly and took another brave step. She flicked her tail and the light sweat started to fade, but she was ready to retreat if she needed too.

"We're getting there girl." Noteing the progress they were making. Green painted fingernails move a tiny bit closer to the mare as Leah mummered kind words to the horse. "Good girl." She wispered seeing less sweat on the mare coat then before. "Good." A wisper came from Leah as she smiled lightly to the mare.

Sky decided to go for it and butted the girls hand with her nosebefore taking her nose away quickly. She looked at her carefully and snorted, her ears flicked towards her as if she was listening to her.

Leah's lips curved into a wider smile. "Very good." She mummered to the mare, her face lit with happiness. Leah was so proud of the mare, she had actually taken a risk and let her velvety muzzle tap Leah's hand. "Good good good!" She whispered. Resisting the temtation to stroke the mare, Leah smiled at the mare again.

Seeing Leahs' face light up with what she thought was happiness she calmed futher. She could tell the girl didn't want to hurt her. She took another little step and pushed her nose into her hand, leavingit there. Her eyes glanced up at Leahs' face.

Leah felt the velvetly muzzle hit her hand. With a smile she said, "Good girl. Your doing great, we might be able to get you to your new home soon." Leah tried to lightly stroke the muzzle without frightning the mare. "You're a very good horse." She wispered to Sky. "Very very good."

Sky kept her eyes on Leah's face but let her warm breath fill her hand. She moved closer again, not feeling so threatened anymore. She flicked her tail at a fly and then rested a hindleg, showing how relaxed she had become.

"Wow." Leah mummbled, amazed at how relaxed the mare looked now. Green painted fingernails stroked a bit more on the muzzle of Sky. "Good girl." She said with a large smile on her face. "You are a great horse. We're makeing a lot of progress." The smile grew larger on Leah's face.

Sky pushed the hand with her nose, taking the trust a bit futher. It had always been men that had hurt her, 'maybe that's why i'm not so scared of her', Sky thought to herself. The sweat had dissappered from her black and white coat, all that remained was a few patches of it dried across her.
