I cautiously reached out and stroked his nose. He snapped at me with his disgusting teeth. “Oh jeez!” I yelled. Spencer sighed. “Try to feed him a carrot from the basket over there.” She suggested.  As I bent down to pick up a carrot for him, he whacked me which his head and sent me falling into the pile of hay again. “Damn this horse!” I growled. Spencer was beet red trying to hold her laughter in. “He just needs to get used to you that’s all.” She said. “Go on. Feed him a carrot.” I frowned at her and begrudgingly held out a bribe to the evil thing. Once again it snapped a time, almost biting my hand off as it snatched the carrot away. “You’re welcome.” I said sarcastically to it. It snorted back at me as if to mock me. “Pet him again.” She suggested. I reached out and stroked his nose gently again, and he only flinched a little. “Ok. At least he ain’t whackin’ ya anymore. Lt’s get you up here slowly…” she said, reaching out and giving me her hand while she petted Teddy on the side comfortingly. If you asked me, this horse was anything but cuddly as a ‘teddy’. As soon as I got one leg in the stirrup, he snorted and bucked his body again, throwing me back in the hay pile, whinnying loudly the whole time as if he were laughing at me. I was about ready to tell Spencer to send him to the glue factory and see if he’d whinny loudly again after he heard that proposal. Spencer yanked on his reins nand forced him to face me. “Teddy.” She said sternly. His ears flickered forward as if to say he heard her. “Let Ashley on. NOW.” She commanded, holding his reins tightly. I held onto Spencer tightly as I tried to mount him again, waiting for him to try to thrash around and buck me off again. But to my surprise, this time he stayed absolutely still after being scolded by her.

               With that, we took off like greased lightning out of her barn and rode off towards the sunset. I held Spencer tightly from behind, breathing in the intoxicating smell of her. Her aunt and uncle’s farm was apparently huge! Teddy galloped though acres and streams and even a field of wildflowers and trees. Life couldn’t be any better; it was so quiet, so serene, and so beautiful. “You try.” She said, handing the reins over to me. I gulped nervously; I hadn’t been exactly paying attention to how she controlled Teddy, but I figured the thing would was supposed to go whichever way you steered it, right? Spencer turned him around towards her uncle and aunt’s house again, since it was getting dark. Teddy pawed at the ground as I contemplated how to make him go forward. “Having trouble, my sweet farm girl?” Spencer giggled. “Go on. Make him take us back home.” She said, prodding me in the ribs. I rested my head on her shoulder and whispered, “As you wish.” Into her ear. “Yah!” I cried, kicking Teddy softly so he wouldn’t throw us both off. He whinnied loudly in protest probably because I was controlling him now, but he still started off back home anyhow. Spencer sighed and back into me, so I rode with one arm wrapped around her waist and the other holding the reins somewhat precariously.  I felt her squeeze the bulge in my pants provocatively. I lost patience and kicked Teddy again, urging him to get us home even faster. “Stop.” She said once we got close enough to see the lights from the house. “Whoa!” I said, pulling the reins and stopping Teddy in his tracks. He snorted loudly in annoyance and kicked at the ground. Spencer hopped off first and stated unloading our stuff and unrolling our huge sleeping bag on the ground and spreading it out after she unzipped it. I put one foot in the stirrup to get down, when all of a sudden Teddy bucked and sent me falling flat on my back right onto the sleeping bag. “Ahh!” I yelped. “Oh no! Ashley!” Spencer cried, rushing over. “Are you okay? Ashley, talk to me!” she cried, panicked. She tugged at my shirt frantically. “Ash? Please talk to me!” she said, her voice cracking. “Hmm…” I said, opening my yes and giggling as I pulled her on top of me for a kiss. “Jerk!” she cried, hitting me on the arm. “Ow.” I said, pulling her back down. I placed my hand behind her neck and pressed my lips against hers once more. Our tongues stroked one another’s gently, doing a dance inside our mouths. I felt Spencer undo the button on my jeans and pull my zipper down.
