Ally soon finished with the barn and led the horses into there marked stalls. She then noticed a loud sports car come speeding up spooking every one. Signing she walked to greet her mom and wondered why she would come visit them and not be in the city gambling money

It happened suddenly. The roaring of a vehicle rushed through his head as he flew through the air, landing almost under his horses feet and hitting the ground with a solid thud. Cricket had spooked, bucking off his unsuspecting rider and began to bolt around the arena; picking up pace as he felt the flapping of stirrups against his side, on his neck, everywhere. It was in this time that Brett sat up, struggling to catch his breathe after winding himself in the fall and barely managing to wheeze out his horses name "Cricket." he attempted to say calmly as he pulled himself up off the ground, still attempting to breath.

"Mom what on Earth are you doing turn your stupid car off"she yelled as her father ran out. The mother stepped out of the car. "Oh I'm so happy to you two"she said and hugged Ally whom Ally pushed her away. "Ally don't push away your mother."she said. Ally growled " you will never be my mother. Just be glad I haven't destroyed your stupid car and made sure father never saw you again. We're both happy that you left so stay away. "She yelled her and turned around and walked away into the barn. Her father sighed and she did have a point. "Andrea why you here. You know I should call the police. You know better then to come here."he said and was soon able to get his ex to leave. He then went up to Brett and apologized for spooking his horse. He then went back into the house to finish doing paper work for a show he was holding. (Night)

Brett was so worried about his horse that it took the yelling to bring his attention to what had happened with who he now knew was Ally's mother. Something had obviously happened there but it wasn't his place to judge, every family had their problems and it wasn't for anyone to say otherwise. Quickly he made an attempt to calm his horse who was still spooked from the experience "Settle up mate, woo up." his voice carried a soft and gentle tone as he approached, not directly looking or facing the horse but still having him in the corner of his eye "Good boy, you're okay mate." he added, softly patting the horses on the neck before reaching for the reins. First things first, Brett began to run his hands down the animal's legs, checking for injury of any sort but to his relief the horse came up fine, maybe a little sore but nothing major and headed towards the barn, that was enough for today.

(okay)

Ally sat on Midnight and soon laid down on his back looking up at the ceiling and started talking to Midnight not expecting some one to come in and listen. "I've been a horrible person today. I'm not this bad but it doesn't help when my mother came and some western person came. I don't even know his name and I'm been such a horrible person. But I do have to say he is cute."she said and sat up and patted Midnight nack. "You don't care do you boy. "She sighed "how em I going to apologize now to him"

Brett stood quietly at the entrance of the barn, judging whether he should enter or give her a moment to herself. Knowing the struggles of separated parents he chose the more appropriate answer to his question and remained outside for the time being. By now he had come into her 'conversation' with what he could only assume was a horse "Apology accepted." he said softly as he and the horse headed into the barn. The facial expression and body language of the young man had changed to a much softer and more inviting demeanour "My name's Brett by the way."

[Aloy]

She sat up quickly and slid off of Midnight. Once she got up and dusted the hay off her pants and watched him. "Um how much did you hear"she asked and came out of Midnight stall. "Brett I'm really em sorry. I've been a big brat today"she then said and gave a small smile at him

[heffalumps]

Brett gave a small laugh and a shrug of his shoulders "About all of it." he replied in a soft yet joking tone, trying not to step out of line or anything like that. Carefully the young man put his gelding back into his stall and began to unsaddle him whilst still keeping the appropriate communication with Ally "It's okay, not to be insensitive but if I had a mother like that I probably would be a lot snappier that you." he reassured and returned the smile.

[Aloy]

"oh well I'm glad some one could agree with me about my mother"she said. "So what where you doing with your horse out there?she asked and leaned on the stall wall watching him."I hope you didn't take offense for what I said about you earlier"she said

After untacking his horse, Brett exited the stall and watched as the nine year old chestnut prepared to roll in the fresh shavings that lined his box. "I was dry schooling him in drafting and cutting, it just makes it a little bit harder without an actual beast but improves his concentration so when we go to our next campdraft hopefully he will perform a bit better." he explained, glancing from his horse back to the girl, he gave a small shrug "I've had worse." his reply cam casually.
